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

U.S. LAW APPLIES TO ALL - BIDEN, BLINKEN, AND LLYOD ARE NOT EXEMPT

The number of government and military officials that have resigned since 10/7 should have been the wakeup call for this administration to reconsider the carte blanche support and blank check for Israel's genocide of Palestinians. When Jewish American Major Harrison Mann resigned from the Defense Intelligence Agency in the U.S. Army, he said this administration's support for Israel has "enabled and empowered the killing and starvation of tens of thousands of innocent Palestinians." When former director at the U.S. State Department Josh Paul resigned on 10/18 that should have been the turning point for his administration. His job in both creating and applying Leahy vetting policy and vetting for other similar laws meant to ensure the United States is not complicit in gross human rights violations by our support of a foreign military, all on its own should have been the point military support for Israel was re-evaluated. Paul's further testimony in the Defense for Children International v. Biden was pivotal in the federal judge's opinion that Israel was plausibly committing a genocide. The only reason that case has not immediately gone further to hold this administration accountable is because of the abuse of executive power and excuse of "national security". I am disturbed every day by this administration's inaction. The global consensus on Israel's actions have been clear for a long time now. Our country cannot continue on this path. You have made all Americans complicit in crimes against humanity by taking our tax dollars. 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
