TELL CONGRESS & PRES. BIDEN: After pro-peace protests erupted across
Israel, PM Netanyahu rejected calls for a ceasefire. The only way to end
this crisis is with a diplomatic peace deal, but Netanyahu is standing in
the way. Sign the petition: Stop fueling Netanyahu’s war with American
funding and weapons.

Hi,

Over the weekend, six Israeli hostages were found dead in Gaza.^1 From
anger and grief, mass protests broke out in Israel against Prime Minister
Netanyahu and his ongoing refusal to end the war in Gaza, broker a
Ceasefire, and bring the hostages home.^2

A peace deal would have freed Israeli hostages and brought an end to the
bombing and killing of Palestinians. Even now, after the hostage deaths
and widespread protests in Israel, Netanyahu rejected calls for peace.^3

The United States has backed Netanyahu with funding and weapons throughout
the war. Our leaders must end their support for the Israeli onslaught on
Gaza so this war can end.

war.

Hundreds of thousands took to the streets of Israel and a general strike
brought much of the country to a halt, all to urge Netanyahu to accept
peace. Netanyahu said No.

But the United States has the leverage to end this war. Ilhan Omar said of
U.S. leaders recently, “If you really wanted a Ceasefire, you'd just stop
sending the weapons.”^4

Why would our leaders continue supplying weapons to the leader who
President Biden says is not doing enough to end the war, who continues
bombing innocent Palestinians, and who fails to bring hostages home?

Hamas's attacks beginning on October 7 must be condemned but Israel's
response has been disproportionate and taken an extraordinary civilian
toll — all while America has supplied the bombs and funding Israel has
used to kill tens of thousands of Palestinians.

Congress and President Biden must use their leverage to end Netanyahu’s
violence and rejection of peace.
