Following a Friday night meeting between Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Arab American leaders, attendees of the sit-down had a simple message: enough.
“In Arabic, we say ‘khallas,’” Warren David, president of Arab America, told NOTUS, using the Arabic word that translates to finished, enough or done.
David was one of almost a dozen representatives from six Arab American organizations who attended the meeting. And he told NOTUS there doesn’t appear to be anything the Biden administration could do at this point to salvage its fractured relationship with the Arab American community.
