2. Letter

It is with a profound sense of desperation and urgency that I write this appeal today. The world stands witness to the harrowing atrocities meted out to Palestinian civilians, a situation greatly exacerbated by the role of the United States, through its continual supply of arms and financial aid. Time and again, the global community has been outraged and saddened by the disturbing incidents making headlines, where innocent men, women, and children become hapless casualties of an unending assault, burying their dreams and their future under the rubble of devastation. Consciousness dictates taking a stand against such gross human rights violations, noticeably culminating from a power imbalance maintained by the supply of external resources. The U.S. must reevaluate its position and recognize the toll these policies inflict, directly contributing to an escalation in violence and sizable suffering. Financial and arms aid, in effect, perpetuates inhuman conditions, deepening the conflict rather than creating avenues for sustainable peace. If these actions persist, we inevitably endorse the violation of the most basic right to life and liberty, which goes against our shared humanity's principles. The call of the hour is not just a ceasefire, but an end to the perpetual machinery of war, where ordinary people pay the heavy price. U.S. lawmakers must revisit and reexamine their policies, prioritizing human rights and advocacy for peace above diplomatic alliances. Each passing moment lost to introspection and definitive action only adds to the loss of precious life, multiplying the suffering of civilians. Human beings, regardless of borders and antecedents, must be protected, their lives valued and freedom ensured at all costs.
