Shut It Down for Palestine THIS WEDNESDAY -- Permanent ceasefire
now!
We are in a crucial moment -- will Biden and Netanyahu resume their
genocide in Gaza, or will there be a permanent ceasefire? Because of
the steadfastness of the Palestinian people along with regional and
global pressure, the temporary "pause" in Israel's assault has been
extended, allow for the release of more Palestinian prisoners and the
entry of additional humanitarian aid. If we keep up the pressure and
stay mobilized, we can turn the temporary pause into a permanent
ceasefire, and make major strides towards the ultimate goal of ending
the occupation and apartheid once and for all.
This Wednesday is the International Day in Solidarity with the
Palestinian People. The movement to Shut It Down for Palestine will
take to the streets again across the United States and around the
globe in another powerful display of opposition to the crimes of the
Israeli regime and its U.S. backers.
These actions will also demand freedom for all 8,300 Palestinian
political prisoners held in Israeli jails. Many of these prisoners are
held under a particularly outrageous practice called "administrative
detention" in which Palestinians do not even know what they are being
charged with, let alone what evidence is being used against them. The
over 100 who have been released so far during the pause have been
greeted by joyous family and huge crowds -- it is time for every
single Palestinian held by Israel to come home.
Let's stay in the streets and win freedom for
Palestine!
