TELL CONGRESS: Israeli PM Netanyahu celebrated Trump’s win. Trump spoke to
Netanyahu about “Israel’s security” and the “Iranian threat.” If Congress
doesn’t act now, the war on Gaza and Lebanon, and the prospects of wider
war with Iran, will get much worse. Sign the petition: Support Bernie
Sanders’s legislation to block weapons sales to Israel NOW.

Hi,

The election of Donald Trump increases the threats of even greater
violence against Palestinians and wider war with Iran.

Trump has told Netanyahu to “do what you have to do” on the battlefield.^1
“I think he’s basically going to give Netanyahu a blank check,” said
former defense secretary Leon Panetta.^2

Senator Bernie Sanders is introducing legislation to block a $20 billion
sale of weapons to Israel. Congress must make it law before it’s too late.

Back Sen. Sanders’s legislation to block a $20 billion weapons sale to
Israel.

Despite a year of devastating violence against the Palestinian people and
Netanyahu’s continued rejection of peace agreements, the U.S. government
is still sending weapons to Israel. And U.S. support for whatever
Netanyahu wants to do will be even stronger with Trump in office.

Over 43,000 Palestinians have been killed in Israel’s onslaught on Gaza —
even so-called humanitarian zones are not safe for civilians. If our
leaders want to end this war, stop a wider war with Iran, and halt the
murder of so many innocent people, the Biden administration and Congress
must act right now.

resolutions to block a $20 billion weapons sale to Israel.

Thanks for taking action,
