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

ENFORCE THE LAW - TERRORISTS ARE BLOCKING HUMANITARIAN AID

2,433 so far! Help us get to 3,000 signers!

For the past week, Israeli terrorist activity has increased against the humanitarian aid workers trying to get desperately needed food, water, and medicine to starving and dying people. Over 130 aid trucks were blocked from entering Gaza by multiple Israelis including the terrorist group Tzav 9 who said they were blocking aid "to the enemy". Humanitarian aid workers were physically and verbally assaulted. Meanwhile, a food convoy was shot up that was headed to northern Gaza where Palestinians are facing the most dire conditions. The ICJ’s provisional measures require the immediate delivery of humanitarian aid. Israel's government, military, and civilians have repeatedly violated this. This is more than credible evidence of gross human rights violations being committed to enforce Leahy law. And still, you continue to break the law to provide Israel with weapons and funding. I demand that you:  - Call for an immediate and permanent ceasefire in Gaza and all other areas of occupied-Palestine - Call for the immediate end of Israel's occupation and apartheid brutally imposed on Palestine, and support Palestinians in their fight for freedom and peace - Hold Israel accountable for their war crimes and violations of the Genocide Convention and other international laws - 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 - Immediately resume funding of UNRWA and commit additional resources to all humanitarian groups providing aid to Palestinians not only because it is the right thing to do, but to end U.S. complicity in genocide - Permanently end all monetary, diplomatic, and military aid given to Israel by correcting our budget and enforcing our own laws like Leahy Law - Reallocate all funds given to Israel for ongoing humanitarian relief for Palestinians to help them rebuild, care for the sick & injured, bury the dead with dignity, and ensure all of their basic needs are taken care of - 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 regional conflict - Repeal all federal anti-BDS laws and pass legislation that voids all state-level anti-BDS laws - Restore my right to free speech and the freedom of the press by condemning all discrimination or harassment for criticizing any government or political ideology (including zionism) and by doing everything possible to prevent future assaults to my rights, including governmental control and/or censorship of the Internet
