ISRAEL VIOLATING UN SECURITY COUNCIL CEASEFIRE - HOLD THEM ACCOUNTABLE NOW

Israel has not followed the UN Security Council Resolution. While I'm not surprised - Netanyahu has repeatedly said he'd ignore any UN or ICJ orders - I am disgusted both in their flippant disregard for human life and your continued, unconditional support of their actions. The al-Shifa Hospital is in the second week of the brutal siege. Save The Children has advised that the conditions in Rafah, where Israel has continued to bomb amidst their imminent plan for a ground invasion, are "overwhelmingly catastrophic". At least 23 children have starved to death in Gaza. Those are only the ones we know about whose deaths were documented by local officials - what of those trapped in places like al-Shifa who are at imminent risk of being starved to death by Israel? What of those whose emaciated bodies may still lie beneath the rubble? The aggression and brutal attacks have been and continue to expand beyond Palestine to neighboring countries. Earlier today, 3/27, Israeli warplanes, funded and equipped by my tax dollars, murdered 7 people in a medical center in southern Lebanon in the town of Hebbarieh. I don't care what ties the Islamic Medical Association supposedly has - medical workers are never a target. 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 – Vote no on H.R. 7521
