James,
Tiny children are starving to death. Aid agencies are sounding the alarm that famine is imminent in Gaza. Once it hits, it will be too late. Thousands more will die.
The U.S. government told Israel it had 30 days to increase the flow of humanitarian aid into Gaza, or risk losing military aid…but instead of changing course, the Israeli government just passed a law banning the UN’s Palestinian refugee agency (UNRWA) from operating.
Right now, nearly 2 million people in Gaza rely on UNRWA to survive. Without those services, the level of human suffering we will witness is truly beyond comprehension.
We cannot let this cruelty go on any longer. Bernie has introduced a resolution to halt $20 billion of U.S. weapons sales to Israel and finally FORCE the Israeli government to stop the starvation and the slaughter. Will you stand with him?
Instead of listening to the U.S.’s request to allow more aid in Gaza, Israel is doubling down.
For almost 8 decades the UNRWA has been the primary humanitarian aid group in Gaza, providing everything from food to healthcare to education to millions of Palestinians living under Israeli occupation. But earlier this week, the Israeli parliament passed two bills banning it from operating.
The U.S. government urged the Israeli government not to pass the legislation. But it went ahead anyway, and now millions of Palestinians will pay a horrific price. Then, on Tuesday, an Israeli airstrike hit yet another residential building in Gaza, killing more than 90 people, including 20 children.
It’s long past time the U.S. stops making requests and starts putting an end to our endless flow of weapons into Israel.
Bernie is leading the way with a path forward to end our government’s backing of Netanyahu’s devastating, immoral war. But he needs ALL of us to stand with him to show support for his resolution to finally stop the U.S. from enabling Israel’s wars. Will you add your name?
When we organize, we win.
Our Revolution
