An open letter to the President & U.S. Congress

Washington Post found no evidence of a control center at Al Shifa hospital

77 so far! Help us get to 100 signers!

A Washington Post investigation found no evidence of a command and control center at Al Shifa hospital. The NY Times confirmed the Israeli government deliberately bombed safe zones where they told Palestinians to shelter. Even U.S. news outlets are catching up to what Palestinians have been saying - this is a genocide. How else do we know this is a genocide? Since October 7th, 20,000+ Palestinians, 70% of whom are women and children, have been killed by the IDF through the war crime of collective punishment. 90% of Gaza’s population has been displaced. UNICEF calls Gaza the most dangerous place in the world for children. 1.15 million+ people are starving in Gaza. 100+ Palestinian journalists and media workers have been targeted and murdered by the IDF in the last two months. The hospitals in Gaza have been destroyed by the IDF and medical infrastructure is decimated. Since November 16th, the UN has warned us to prevent this continued genocide of the Palestinian people. I am asking you to take immediate steps to deescalate violence in Gaza and Israel by calling for 1) a total and permanent ceasefire, 2) humanitarian aid allowed to enter Gaza, 3) an end to Israel's siege on Gaza, 4) the release of all Palestinian and Israeli hostages, and 5) no more weapons or funding to the Israeli military. A permanent ceasefire is an absolutely critical step to ensuring everlasting liberation and peace. I support a permanent ceasefire, along with 62 Congressmembers, and 61% of American voters (https://www.dataforprogress.org/blog/2023/12/5/voters-want-the-us-to-call-for-a-permanent-ceasefire-in-gaza-and-to-prioritize-diplomacy). I'm urgently asking you to publicly call for a permanent ceasefire. U.S. made weapons are killing entire families in Gaza. Our tax dollars are directly funding this genocide. As your office was recently informed by the Center for Constitutional Rights, there is legal liability for aiding and abetting genocide through congressional acts. In a new lawsuit, Palestinians are suing President Biden for complicity in genocide. You must take action now to stop genocide and end all U.S. complicity in Israel's violence.
