A new Israeli massacre -- We must surround the White House for
Gaza this Saturday!
A horrific new massacre has been perpetrated by the Israeli
military in Gaza -- dozens of Palestinians who were sheltering in a
United Nations-operated school were murdered in an airstrike. The
Israelis have even admitted to the airstrike, but claim to have been
targeting "terrorists" -- their favorite lie to conceal the reality of
genocide. Among the dead were many children.
The bombs, jets and other weaponry Israel uses to commit atrocities
like this on a regular basis are provided by the United States. Joe
Biden is funding a genocide with our tax dollars. His talk about
protecting civilians is nothing more than the cruelest form of
cynicism unless he cuts off this massive and continuous flow of
arms.
The people need to rise up against the genocide! This Saturday,
people will converge from all across the country to Biden's door step
and surround the White House for Gaza. We will form the People's Red
Line around the White House and make it clear that the people of the
United States stand against the genocide, and we will not stop
fighting until Palestine is free!
Join the People's Court of Justice!
4:00 p.m. The Ellipse (Just south of
the White House)
Directly after the red line surrounds the White House at 12pm on
June 8, lawyers and organizers will try Israeli and U.S. war criminals
for their war crimes in Gaza!
While Biden refuses to draw a red line for Palestine, the people
have. But we don’t just have the moral authority—we have a legitimate
legal claim in international law. No case has been as well documented
as Israel’s genocide on Gaza, and the fact becomes undeniable: Israel
has always sought the complete annihilation of Palestine, and the U.S.
has always supported it in its barbaric pursuits.
We will hold a trial demanding that those responsible for the
genocide are brought to justice. Israeli and U.S. officials, weapons
companies, corporate media—all of these institutions have played a
crucial part in the murder of over 40,000 Palestinians and the
destruction of Gaza. The U.S. boasts of itself as a global pillar of
democracy and moral righteousness, but the people know this is a lie.
It is time for them to be held responsible.
After the red line, proceed to the Ellipse, just south of the White
House. We will hear the people’s indictment, with testimony from Gaza,
the diaspora, and lawyers as we charge Israel and the U.S. with
genocide!

Each bus costs thousands of dollars to
reserve, which must be paid in advance. Each of ANSWER's 4 buses from
Boston costs $7,300. Even though we fully expect to sell every ticket
(at $70), we will lose thousands of dollars per bus. Buses from Iowa,
Western Massachusetts and Maine cost even more. We've already spent
$45,000 on buses from New York City, with each bus incurring a loss.
Please make an urgently-needed donation today to help cover these
considerable costs.
