Israeli terrorists attacked a bus full of orphans being transferred from Gaza to the West Bank after Israel destroyed their orphanage. This call for violence came directly from Israeli Ministers Bezalel Smotrich and Itamar Ben-Gvir labeling these children as their enermy. This is the same reason that more children have been murdered in Gaza by Israel than in four years of war worldwide.
In the last 24 hours on 3/13, approximately 100 people have been murdered that we know of. Attacks on Palestinians in the West Bank and all other areas of occupied Palestinians have been increasing both from Israeli forces and Israeli settler-colonial terrorists. In East Jerusalem, a 13yo boy, Rami Hamdan al-Halhuli, was murdered after Israeli forces shot him in the back.
One of the other people injured in recent attacks is an American woman you've abandoned. Israeli forces bombed her home in Deir Al-Balah in the central Gaza Strip. The only reason she survived is because of the brave efforts of the community in a painstaking 2 hour operation to free her from the rubble. She is just one of the Americans you've abandoned throughout occupied-Palestine.
I demand that you:
- Call for an immediate and permanent ceasefire
- Call for the immediate end of Israel's occupation and apartheid and support Palestinians in their fight for freedom and peace
- Hold Israel accountable for their violations of the Genocide Convention and all other international laws by any means necessary
- 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
- 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
