An Open Letter

What Israel is doing in Lebanon by making devices like pagers and walkie-talkies makeshift explosives is an act of state terrorism and a blatant violation of the rules-based order, as many have already pointed out. Israel is also blatantly committing genocide in Gaza, and has been. It was reported earlier today in HuffPost that Israel is preventing 80% of supplies from reaching the Gazan population.
Official death tolls from Gaza, with calculation methodologies supported by the U.N., make up a 649-page document, with names of victims under 10 years of age taking up more than 100 pages. 169 babies have been identified among the dead who were born after the Hamas attacks on 10/7/23.
This has got to stop right now. It should go without saying that this cannot be tolerated. If President Biden is going to continue to prevent any kind of accountability for Israel, then you as the Democratic Party nominee for POTUS need to speak out on the campaign trail immediately.
Though Trump would be an unspeakable nightmare for the Palestinian People, how can President Biden claim to be anything but the same? You’re in a ceremonious position as Vice President but you’re trying to become Commander-in-Chief and you must act in every capacity possible to rein Netanyahu in without delay. You know exactly what that means.
