Netanyahu opposes any Palestinian state - Ceasefire NOW

In January 2024, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reported that he informed the U.S. he opposes the establishment of a Palestinian state as part of any postwar scenario. In a news conference, Netanyahu said he would continue the offensive until Israel realizes a "decisive victory over Hamas." He also rejected the idea of Palestinian statehood. He said he had shared these views with the U.S. "In any future arrangement … Israel needs security control all territory west of the Jordan," Netanyahu told a nationally broadcast news conference. "This collides with the idea of sovereignty. What can you do?" (PBS News) We’ve heard the genocidal intent and witnessed genocidal actions, war crimes, and atrocities committed by Israel. It’s clear Israel does not care for the Palestinian people’s safety or sovereignty. The world watches as you fund and ignore this genocide. I support a ceasefire, along with 65 Congressmembers (as of Jan 22), 61% of American voters, and over 70% of Democrats (Data for Progress). We are paying attention to representatives who publicly call for a permanent ceasefire, which will shape the 2024 elections. I am demanding you to take immediate steps to deescalate violence in Gaza and Israel by calling for 1) a total and permanent ceasefire, 2) humanitarian aid allowed to enter Gaza, 3) an end to Israel's siege on Gaza, 4) the release of all Palestinian and Israeli hostages, 5) no more weapons or funding to the Israeli military, 6) protection of free speech by clarifying that criticism of the Israeli government’s actions is not anti-semitism, 7) reinstate UNRWA funding. A permanent ceasefire is an absolutely critical step to ensuring everlasting liberation and peace. Never again means never again for anyone. Palestinians deserve to live with freedom and safety which means first stopping this genocide and then ensuring liberation from occupation and apartheid. The liberation and safety of Palestinians, Israelis, Jewish people, and Muslim people are intertwined. There can only be true safety when we are all free from oppression. U.S. made weapons are killing entire families in Gaza. Our tax dollars are directly funding this genocide. The ICJ ruled that Israel should do everything in its power to prevent genocide. South Africa is also suing President Biden for participating in this genocide. You must take action now and end all U.S. support in Israel's enactment of this genocide.
