THOUSANDS OF REFUGEES HAVE NOWHERE TO GO AS ISRAEL BOMBS KHAN YOUNIS
658 so far! Help us get to 1,000 signers!
Khan Younis has already been utterly destroyed. We all saw what happened to the Nasser Hospital earlier this year and the complete destruction of the entire area. Israel is now bombing the entire area, again, forcing thousands of refugees to try and flee, again. As of the time I'm writing this on 8/9, over 30 different sites in Khan Younis have been bombed. Most are having to leave on foot, carrying everything they physically can of their belongings. People are making their way to the Al-Mawasi refugee camp, which has already been bombed. The "humanitarian zone" has never had the supplies needed to adequately supply the number of refugees with the basic necessities of life.
I demand that you:
– Hold Israel accountable for a permanent, immediate ceasefire, their violations of the Genocide Convention, and gross human rights violations by any means necessary
– Call for the immediate end of Israel’s occupation and apartheid and support Palestinians in their fight for freedom and peace
– Secure the immediate release and safety of all Palestinians who have been abducted and held captive by Israel, including those whose indefinite detention began prior to 10/7
– Permanently end all monetary, diplomatic, and military aid given to Israel and enforce Leahy Law
– Reallocate all funds given to Israel and commit additional resources for ongoing humanitarian relief for Palestinians starting with immediately resuming funding of UNRWA
– Immediately withdraw all U.S. troops, military assets, and all other assets deployed throughout the Middle East and cease all actions that further escalate a larger regional conflict
– Pass legislation that voids all anti-BDS laws at the federal level
– Vote no on H.R. 7521 and any similar legislation proposed
