<[link removed]>Friend,

Three days after I sent the message below, we learned that the Biden-Harris administration just handed Israel ANOTHER $20 BILLION in weapons and military equipment on a silver platter.

That's barely a week after the LAST $3B in armaments the administration shipped over just before Israel demolished a school housing refugees and killed over 100 people – many of them women, children, and elderly.

Genocide apologists are quick to point out that much of this latest “aid package” comes in the form of fighter jets that won’t be delivered for years – but that is precisely the problem.

Right now, the number one provocateur driving us towards a global conflict with nuclear weapons is Israel, and the Biden-Harris administration has just recommitted America to the long-term project of sponsoring their constant escalations.

If EITHER Harris or Trump is elected this year, Israel is guaranteed to receive this equipment and be given free reign to use it.

There is only one campaign with a path to the White House this November that will stop this shipment and impose a complete arms embargo against Israel on Day One – and that is ours. <[link removed]>

Just imagine all the good we could do with that $20B right here at home.

For $20 billion we could completely eradicate homelessness in the U.S.

We could fund universal free school lunches and supplemental meals so that NO child has to learn on an empty stomach.

We could fund a year’s worth of universal pre-K services, providing critical support to working class families who have no access to childcare, and creating countless new job opportunities.

We could fund critical climate initiatives in the most vulnerable communities.

We could use that $20B to alleviate suffering here at home. Instead we are using it to arm a genocidal apartheid vassal state to commit MORE war crimes.

Not even the attempted murder of an American citizen is enough to make them alter course. Murtaza Hussain reported yesterday for Drop Site News that Amado Sison, a New Jersey activist protesting the ethnic cleansing campaign now ramping up in the West Bank, was shot and wounded by an Israeli soldier on Friday.

Importantly: Sison was shot from behind as the protesters were retreating, a common tactic among Israeli Occupation Forces.

When they tell you that we have to vote “blue” for peace and democracy, remember that every single child murdered in Gaza since October 7th was killed with weapons sent by a Democratic president.

The only way to end this madness is to break free from the twin parties of war and Wall Street and vote Green. I need your support to reach every American who wants to end this genocide and forge a new path rooted in justice for Palestine. <[link removed]>

<[link removed]>As Gaza goes we all go <[link removed]>In solidarity,

Jill

Subject: Israel blew up another school today

Friend,

For the last six weeks, it’s been increasingly difficult to find mainstream news reporting about Israel’s continued campaign of mass murder against the people of Palestine.

Instead, there has been endless and breathless reporting on the palace intrigue of the presidential race – from Joe Biden’s debate performance to Kamala’s coronation, and everything in between.

Every time you see another cable news host cracking jokes about JD Vance and couches, remember that they’re NOT talking about the fact that Israel is still killing Palestinians in Gaza. Every. Single. Day.

Including today.

<[link removed]>Just hours ago, Israel dropped three 2,000-pound bombs supplied by the Biden-Harris administration on the al-Tabin school in Gaza City, which was functioning as a shelter for displaced Palestinians – including women, children, and the elderly.

The bombs struck as they were engaged in morning prayers. Many who didn’t die in the initial blast were killed instead by the fire that ripped through the building afterwards.

It’s been four months since the Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor estimated that Israel has dropped over 70,000 tons of bombs on Gaza – nearly FOUR TIMES the total bombs the Luftwaffe dropped on London in WW-II.

It has not stopped – and it will not stop until we stop giving Israel bombs.

The bombs dropped on the al-Tabin school today were just three of the more than 14,000 MK-84, 2,000-pound bombs Biden has given Netanyahu since October 7th.

Since Biden dropped out of the presidential race, many activists within the Democratic party who have relentlessly fought for an end to this genocide have cautiously embraced Harris and her candidacy – believing that President Biden won’t stop capitulating to Israel, but a possible President Harris would.

This is her chance to prove it.

Harris has the power now to pressure Biden for a full arms embargo against Israel – and a permanent ceasefire. If she expects to earn the support of those who oppose this indiscriminate slaughter, she has to answer those demands.

The signs are not encouraging, however. The latest shipment of MK-84s was part of ANOTHER $3B military “aid package” for Israel authorized by the Biden-Harris administration only days ago – around the same time Vice President Harris told pro-Palestine protesters in Detroit, “I’m speaking now.”

We won’t accept another four years of lip service from Democrats who talk about peace while supplying weapons to war criminals and facilitating the extermination of an entire people.

For those committed to ending this genocide, there is only one choice this November. Ours is the ONLY anti-genocide, pro-peace, pro-planet, pro-worker campaign with a pathway to the White House. Help me get our campaign in front of every voter who supports a ceasefire and lasting peace with justice. <[link removed]>

<[link removed]>DONATE NOW <[link removed]>Israel’s damnable assault on the al-Tabin school is far from an isolated incident. There are at least 200 documented Israeli air strikes against schools over the last 10 months – a number we are certain is undercounted.

Much like the over 600 strikes against hospitals, aid stations, and first responders, Israel’s continued attacks on schools and refugee shelters are flagrant violations of international law.

By supplying the weapons, we are participating in their war crimes, and we will not allow those responsible to turn a blind eye.

Over 100 people died in today’s bombing on this school. After so many months of relentless bombing, the numbers begin to blur together.

But they are not numbers. They are people. They deserved to live, and we owe them justice.

We will not allow the beautiful souls of the Palestinian people to be reduced to rubble and statistics. Stand with me and make this campaign as strong as we can so we can deliver our mandate for people, planet, and peace on November 5th. <[link removed]>

As Gaza goes, we all go.

In solidarity and gratitude,

Jill
