More countries join South Africa case against Israel - Ceasefire NOW

More countries join South Africa’s ICJ case against Israel which accuses Israel of genocide. Saudi Arabia, Iran, Pakistan and Morocco, voiced their support for the case on December 30, 2023. In 2024 so far, Malaysia, Turkey, Jordan, Bolivia, Maldives, Nambia, and Pakistan have expressed support for South Africa’s case as well. The global community continues to recognize Israel’s war crimes and genocide of the Palestinian people. The global community wants a ceasefire. 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. Never again means never again for anyone. Palestinians deserve to live with freedom and safety which means first stopping this genocide and then ensuring liberation from occupation and apartheid. The liberation and safety of Palestinians, Israelis, Jewish people, and Muslim people are intertwined. There can only be true safety when we are all free from oppression. We are paying attention to representatives who publicly call for a permanent ceasefire, which will shape the 2024 elections. 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 demanding you 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 participating in this genocide. You must take action now to stop genocide and end all U.S. support in Israel's enactment of this genocide.
