The proposed expulsion of Palestinians from Gaza raises grave concerns about human rights violations and potential war crimes. Such an action would constitute ethnic cleansing and forced displacement of an entire population, which are condemned under international law. We must protect the rights and dignity of all people, including Palestinians in Gaza. Rather than pursuing this unacceptable course, a just and lasting peace should be sought through negotiations respecting Palestinian self-determination and addressing the root causes of the conflict. As a nation founded on principles of freedom and justice, the United States has a moral obligation to uphold human rights and work towards a peaceful resolution benefiting all sides. I urge you to clearly reject any proposal to expel Palestinians from Gaza and reaffirm America's commitment to human rights and international law.
