Friends,
Few outsiders have made it into Gaza in the past two years, and even fewer are able to speak openly about what they’ve seen.
That’s why I don’t want you to miss out on our call at 12pm Eastern today with Gaza Humanitarian Foundation whistleblower Tony Aguilar and human rights advocate Tania Hary of Gisha.
They’ve witnessed the challenges and obstruction of Gaza’s humanitarian system firsthand, and will help us cut through the spin, deflection and denial to understand what’s really going on.
Help us reach more people by forwarding this invite. Register here >>
Thank you, sincerely, for your support.

It’s shocking that despite horrific images of starvation coming out of Gaza daily, Netanyahu and other Israeli leaders continue to say “there is no starvation.”
The denial, deflection and spin are thick and fast – and to help cut through the noise, we’re hosting an urgent national call on Thursday. Can you join us and help get others to join as well?
We’ll speak with courageous Gaza Humanitarian Foundation whistleblower Tony Aguilar and a leading Israeli advocate to get aid into Gaza, Tania Hary of Gisha, for an unfiltered reality check. It will be a powerful conversation with insiders who’ve witnessed the challenges and obstruction of Gaza’s humanitarian system from two very unique vantage points. Register to join us here >>
- Lt. Col. Tony Aguilar (Ret.) is a former Green Beret and Purple Heart recipient who served as a contractor for the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation – and is now blowing the whistle after watching civilians killed at distribution points “designed as death traps.”
- Tania Hary is the Executive Director of the Gaza-focused Israeli human rights group Gisha and has been advocating to surge aid into Gaza, including through the courts, where Gisha filed a petition to hold the Netanyahu coalition accountable over its blockade.
This will be a tough, unflinching discussion, and we invite you to put your questions to both our panelists as we hear directly from those with experience on the ground. Please feel free to forward this email and invite others to join.

The catastrophe in Gaza and the obstruction of humanitarian aid are an indefensible moral stain, and we cannot be silent in the face of it.
Friends: Please take a moment to share this link with others in our community who need to join this call and hear this for themselves. You can directly share the link here >>
From Hary’s work to overcome Netanyahu’s obstruction to Aguilar’s first-hand experience on the ground, they’ll track how aid that should be saving lives has instead put them in danger, and why time is running out to bring this horror to an end.
I hope you can join us for this can’t-miss discussion.
See you there,
Jeremy Ben-Ami
J Street President
