As salaamu alaykum, Indiana Jones—
We are witnessing a kind of horror in Gaza that even experts on humanitarian disasters are calling "beyond catastrophic."¹
No aid has entered northern Gaza in days. Palestinians are being forced to leave or be killed. It's called the "General's Plan" — starving out or killing those in northern Gaza to gain complete control of the area.¹
We Need an Arms Embargo on Israel NOW.
Now is the time. We cannot wait any longer.
At any moment, President Biden could stop arming Israel and put real pressure on Israel to stop the massacres of Palestinians and demand Gaza receive immediate humanitarian aid.
Every day is a day of death in Gaza.
Almost two-thirds of people in the US — a clear majority — want to stop arming Israel's genocide.²
Biden isn't listening. The U.S. persists in breaking U.S. law and International law by continuing to arm and support Israel's genocide. Biden has even sent U.S. troops without Congressional authorization to aid Israel's horrific war.³
We must seize any opportunity to pressure U.S. leaders to end support for Israel's war — and help those who remain in Gaza find a pathway to freedom.
In solidarity,
Linda, Yasmine, and the MPower Action team
