The genocide of Palestinians is a crime against humanity. It’s not atrocious simply because of how many people are affected — it is inherently unconscionable. You shouldn't postpone action until an arbitrary metric of brutality is reached. You should care about Palestinian lives before thousands of innocent people are murdered. You should’ve worked to revoke “american” support for "israel" as soon as you got into office. While it may be too late for that, you can do it now. You can’t undo the brutal violence, but you can put a stop to it.
Your entire political career is in jeopardy. A 2/3 majority of American voters support a ceasefire in Palestine, across party lines. It is deplorable that if & when you do take a stand against “israeli” violence, it will be for the sake of your career, if not due to the number of Palestinian lives lost & at risk from this genocide. But if you do change your stance, it will save lives, even if your reasoning is flawed. Saving Palestinian lives is of utmost importance.
I despise that this may be one of the only ways to appeal to you, but the goal is a ceasefire, so if I must resort to numbers, so be it. We know that "israel" has killed tens of thousands of Palestinians since the recent increase in their genocidal violence. With thousands more stuck under rubble, & considering the zionists’ complete siege on Gaza and their targeting of press & medical clinics (all of which are war crimes), the actual number of deaths is much higher than the official count. With that being said, as of 12/30, Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor confirms that the number of Palestinian lives lost since 10/7 has surpassed 30,000. How can you justify your continued support for “israel”, knowing that it violates our own laws (Leahy law), will end your career, & has already martyred 30,000 innocent people?
I demand that you:
1) Force an immediate & permanent CEASEFIRE
2) Express explicit support for full Palestinian liberation: from the river to the sea.
3) Provide substantial, ongoing monetary aid to all surviving Palestinians. They need clean water, food, shelter, medical care, & the restoration of infrastructure. The least you could do is end the ongoing violence. Make sure they can mourn the 30,000+ Palestinians killed in this horrific genocide (as of 12/30/23) without constant fear of losing more loved ones. You must ensure that their survival & rights have guaranteed protection.
4) Condemn not only “israeli” violence & lies but the existence of the state of “israel” itself.
5) Immediately revoke all support for “israel”. Do not send another dollar or weapon. Cut diplomatic ties & end the cross-training between “american” police & the “i”of.
6) Void all federal, state, & local laws that oppose the BDS Movement as they are unconstitutional & unjust.
7) Expedite the implementation of a refugee resettlement program for Palestinians to relocate to the “united states”.
From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free.
