An Open Letter

To: Sen. Peters, Sen. Slotkin, Rep. Barrett

From: A constituent in Lansing, MI

September 15

No more US aid to oppressive Israeli government. I don't want my tax dollars supporting their oppression and murder of journalists. I don't want my tax dollars subsidizing the murder of innocent people. I don't want my tax dollars funding foreign interference in our democracy and media. Israel does not speak for the Jewish diaspora. Israel is no friend to our nation. Israel is using the US as cover for genocide and brutal repression of dissent. Just as we eventually had to admit how wrong we were about South African apartheid, we must wake up and stand against Israeli apartheid. There is no greater fuel for global anti-Semitism than Israel's horrific politics, suppression of dissent from Israelis and diaspora Jews, and their reinforcement of the worst libels against Judaism for their own agenda. We all must stand up for Judaism, against Israel. And the US must stop funding oppressive, murderous hate masquerading as a national identity. Israel is no friend to the US, no friend to diaspora Jews, and no friend to democracy. Stop carrying their water.
