Stay in the streets March 13 -- No invasion of Rafah, free
Palestine!
The all-out Israeli invasion of Rafah could begin any day. Today
marks the deadline set by the genocidal Israeli regime for the
beginning of the most brutal phase of its war on Gaza yet. With every
passing moment, the need becomes more urgent — take to the streets to
demand a ceasefire! On March 13, the Shut It Down for Palestine movement will be
holding its next nationwide day of action.
The majority of Gaza’s population has been forced to flee to Rafah,
a tiny area half the size of San Francisco that is now home to 1.5
million people. The trapped population has nowhere to flee as the
US-supplied Israeli war machine closes in. Today, as Ramadan begins,
Israel announced that it was deploying an additional 15,000 soldiers
to the West Bank in an attempt to brutally suppress large-scale
Palestinian popular resistance.
While a Rafah invasion looms, mass starvation is growing all
throughout Gaza. Stunts like Biden’s “floating pier” just aim to
sanitize the role of the US government as a full partner in the
genocide. The only way to prevent further catastrophic loss of life is
an immediate ceasefire and the end of the siege of Gaza.
Take to the streets March 13 to demand an end to Netanyahu and
Biden’s genocide and take a stand for a free Palestine! Check the website of the Shut It Down movement for
frequent updates and to find an action near you.
