Israel “Mows the Grass”

Again!

         Israeli racist hardliners call the Anti-Arab killings of a new generation of Palestinians as “mowing the grass,” a process underway again-and-again in ongoing massive bombardments of Gaza.

        Let’s be clear. What Israel is doing to Palestinians is ethnic cleansing, It’s apartheid. It’s racist. It’s settler colonialism. The U.S. voted 3 times this past week AGAINST a cease-fire at the UN Security Council. It was the only NO vote. As many have said: the U.S. must stop being an apologist for the Israeli government. Israel is illegally occupying Palestinian land. For Israel to claim it has the right to defend it’s illegal occupation of Palestine is not only ridiculous, it is criminal. It is a crime against humanity. The U.S. needs to immediately end it’s complicity in Israel’s criminal abuse of Palestinians.

     Israel needs to: return all Palestinian lands it occupies; cede control of the groundwater under the West Bank to the Palestinians who live there; release its Palestinian political prisoners; dismantles all settlements that have displaced Palestinians; halt its nighttime raids of Palestinian homes and detention of children; take down the separation wall it has constructed through Palestinian farmers’ lands; stop restricting access to certain Muslim and Christian places of worship; lift it’s blockade and siege of Gaza; disarm itself of nuclear weapons; and no longer receive U.S. military aid. Each year $3.8 BILLION of U.S. tax payers money is invested in Israel’s oppression of Palestinians. Israeli bombs being dropped on Gaza are “Made in the USA.” Israel’s current war against Gaza is benefiting Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu. It is helping him stay out of jail on corruption charges. All violence between Israel and Palestine must end, but there is no comparison between Israeli violence and Palestinian violence.

     Being against Israel’s war crimes is NOT anti-semitism. End U.S. Military funding to Israel now.

     Sign the petition: Tell President Biden and Congress to stop U.S. funds from being used to kill Palestinians and demolish their homes! 

Shabbat! Shalom! Peace with Justice for All!
