Ambassador Nominee Dodges Questions on Supporting Muslim Brotherhood and Wanting Jews to Leave Israel During Senate Hearing
Controversy erupted today during the Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing for Amer Ghalib, President Trump’s nominee to serve as U.S. Ambassador to Kuwait, after the Michigan mayor repeatedly refused to answer questions about his past praise for the Muslim Brotherhood and his views on Israel as the Jewish homeland, called for “Israelis to leave the land” of Israel and and supported the BDS movement.
Ghalib currently serves as mayor of Hamtramck, Michigan — a city he has governed with policies that critics say reflect growing Islamist influence.
