Consider that Wisconsin has a Muslim population of around 70,000.

Michigan has almost 250,000 Muslims.

Between 150,000 and 200,00 Muslims live in Philidelphia.

Could Muslims staying home rather than voting for Biden in those states/locales, in turn, swing the overall election - similar to how WWC voters in those states swung the election in 2016?

Consider that Trump won Michigan in 2016 by just 10,704 votes

Trump won PA in 2016 by 44,000 votes
 
Trump won Wisconsin in 2016 by 22,000 votes.
 
Essentially roughly 72,000 people across three states determined the election in 2016.

Given the numbers of Muslims in these important states, could Trump pull off a similar victory if Muslims decide to either vote for Trump, stay home, or vote for a third party candidate as a response to Biden’s support for Israel?

Might give you an idea of what to expect...

And in the UK Labour actually isn't the incumbent party associated the most with government support for Gaza. While Labour in the overall picture is doing well, and that isn't really the case for Joe Biden's election chances.

In the UK, in a lot of ways a vote for the greens or indies would also be seen as a wasted vote, and we've seen with Galloway's victory also already that muslim voters are increasingly looking for alternatives. Of course, more muslims / arab-americans live in UK than USA. But it's going to play a role.

I'm not really familiar with European politics, can you in a sense translate the various parties listed in your chart to the Dems and Pubs here?

And by the way, why is Lady Liberty being arrested in your signature?
