🚨🇺🇸✡️ SCATHING NEW AD: Michigan Mother Whose Son Survived Temple Israel Terror Attack Speaks Out in New Ad Targeting Abdul El-Sayed’s Ties to Controversial Pro-Hams Figures Jewish mother Taylor Weintraub knows firsthand the fear of having a child caught in a terrorist attack. Her son was inside Michigan’s Temple Israel synagogue when it was targeted on March 12. Now, with Tuesday’s election approaching, Weintraub is featured in a new political ad raising concerns about Michigan Democratic Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed and his associations with controversial anti-Israel figures. At the center of the controversy is Osama Siblani, the influential publisher of The Arab American News, who has helped raise campaign funds for El-Sayed. Siblani is not just a “streamer from California”. He is a prominent political figure in Michigan’s Arab American community who has publicly described Hams and Hezbollah members as “freedom fighters,” praised Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah and made inflammatory remarks about sending Israeli Jews “back to Poland.” El-Sayed also faced backlash after responding to the Temple Israel attack with the phrase “hurt people hurt people,” remarks. For Weintraub, the controversy raises questions about the safety of Michigan’s Jewish community and the political judgment of those seeking to represent it. The ad, funded by the Democrats for Mike Rogers super PAC, is part of a multimillion-dollar advertising campaign airing during morning, evening and late-night newscasts in Detroit and Grand Rapids.
