11/26 Petition to Biden & Congress for Palestine

The UN Office of Human Rights has already repeatedly warned the events unfolding in Palestine will amount to a genocide if not stopped. So many other experts have already weighed in, begging the international community to put an end to Israel’s terrorism and genocide of Palestinians. IOF terrorism extends beyond Gaza to all of occupied Palestine. Why won’t you put a stop to this?

Instead, the administration is asking Congress to remove restrictions on policies governing the War Reserve Stockpile Allies-Israel (WRSA-I) that already supplies the IOF with weapons, in order to give Israel a discount and access to even more military weapons and technology with even less congressional oversight. I vehemently oppose the WRSA-I to begin with, but this proposal is beyond disturbing.

I am demanding that you:

• Call for an immediate ceasefire- a “humanitarian pause” is completely insufficient
• Call for the immediate end of apartheid, occupation, and ethnic cleansing of Palestine
• Support both Israelis and Palestinians in efforts for real and long-lasting peace, safety, freedom, and equal rights for both groups
• Continue to speak out against the disturbing rise of antisemitism, and ALSO equally condemn the rise of Islamophobia tearing our country apart
• Withdraw all U.S. troops and assets sent to assist Israel
• Permanently end all monetary and military aid given to Israel, whether it is directly or indirectly provided
• Provide substantial, ongoing humanitarian relief to all of occupied Palestine to help them rebuild, care for the sick & injured, bury the dead with dignity, and to ensure all of their basic needs are taken care of and unable to be restricted now and in the future by any government or group
• Not support any legislation that directly or indirectly allows for targeting of Palestinians both in the U.S. and abroad
• Protect my freedom of speech and work against all efforts of censorship whether the form is governmental control of the Internet, penalties in-person, or other means of silencing
• Restore my right of free speech to criticize any government or political ideology and provide protection against targeting, discrimination, and harassment for doing so
• Repeal all federal anti-BDS laws for businesses and individuals and pass legislation that voids any and all state-level anti-BDS laws
• Stop the militarization of our police force by ending the cross-training done with the IOF, and all other ways this is accomplished
