John,

In response to the case brought by South Africa against Israel, the
International Court of Justice just ruled that Israel’s government is
plausibly committing genocide.

The Court ordered Israel’s government to act immediately to prevent
further harm to the Palestinian people—and to stop “acts of genocide” such
as killing Palestinians and “causing serious bodily or mental harm” to
Palestinians.

This ruling also puts the U.S. government on notice for enabling
violations of the Genocide Convention. As a signer of the Genocide
Convention, the U.S. government is legally obligated to prevent genocide.

Justice’s ruling to prevent genocide, you must suspend all weapons
transfers and military funding to Israel’s government. Stop enabling the
genocide of Palestinians, and instead push for a ceasefire.

SIGN NOW

With U.S. support, the Israeli government has killed more than 27,000
Palestinians in Gaza, forcibly displacing 2 million people within the
already-densely-packed Gaza strip.

President Biden has sent thousands of bombs to Israel’s military, while
blocking international efforts to stop the violence and watering down
attempts to secure sufficient humanitarian aid.

Meanwhile, Israel’s government is still starving Palestinians in Gaza and
depriving the trapped population of other basic needs for survival such as
water, shelter, and medical assistance.

As the biggest funder of Israel’s military, U.S. government leaders have
the power and the obligation to stop this unfolding genocide.

In addition to the order to prevent genocide, the International Court of
Justice (ICJ) also ordered Israel to prevent and punish incitement to
genocide, to immediately ensure “urgently needed basic services and
humanitarian assistance” to Gaza, and to report back within a month to the
court.

The only way to implement the Court’s orders is by facilitating a lasting
ceasefire.

[ [link removed]- ]Please sign if you agree: The Biden administration must not only affirm
the legitimacy of the ICJ’s ruling and facilitate an immediate
ceasefire—it must comply with federal and international law by suspending
military assistance to the Israeli government.

ADD YOUR NAME

Let’s keep up the momentum and the pressure to end not only this genocide,
but also the apartheid system that’s rooted in the racist dehumanization
of Palestinians. Together, we’re demanding a world with equality and
dignity for all people.

In solidarity,

Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib
