This is the best summary I could come up with:


The rallies came one day after a sitting member of Congress, Palestinian-American Rashida Tlaib, released a video that accused her party's leader of supporting a genocide and ended with a sombre promise: "We will remember in 2024."

The admonitions of this disproportionately — but not exclusively — young, progressive, Muslim-American crowd don't appear to represent majority opinion in the United States.

"[It's] the language of votes," said Nihad Awad, executive director and co-founder of the Council on American Islamic Relations, before rattling off a list of swing states with significant Muslim populations.

On the other hand, Biden has negotiated the opening of the humanitarian corridor into Gaza, and has publicly — and repeatedly — urged Israel not to give into vengeful impulses and to protect civilian lives.

Tariq Nayfeh, a medical doctor who attended the Washington rally, said he's hearing horror stories from colleagues and friends in Gaza and the West Bank.

Trump has promised to ban refugees from Gaza and bar immigrants who express sympathy for Hamas, while some other Republicans are proposing legislation to expel Palestinians from the U.S.


The original article contains 1,105 words, the summary contains 169 words. Saved 85%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
