4/14 Petition to Biden & U.S. Congress
It’s only been a few days after Israel’s terrorist National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir called for even more violence towards Palestinians. Today, 4/14, Israeli settler-colonial terrorists destroyed 30+ olive and almond trees in the occupied West Bank near the illegal Barkan settlement. I wish it stopped there – several Israeli soldiers burned a Palestinian family’s car in the West Bank. On the video recording of the terror attack, you can hear them say, “These are the scum of nations…the dirtiest creatures on this earth…they are not human.” Elsewhere in the West Bank near the village of Kafr Malik, Israeli soldiers provided back-up for settler-colonial terrorists who have been attacking and shooting people. A young man was injured.
Yesterday in Duma, West Bank, Israeli settler-colonial terrorists stormed the area, lit houses and cars on fire, and indiscriminately opened fire on the town. No one knows how Binyamin Achimair tragically died in the area, the Israeli teen whose death is being used to justify the collective punishment and attempted annihilation of an entire town.
Ben-Gvir has emboldened, incited, and encouraged violence against Palestinians well before 10/7, and has only escalated his rhetoric in recent weeks. Every time he calls for violence, sure enough, it comes through.
I demand that you:
– Hold Israel accountable for a permanent, immediate ceasefire, their violations of the Genocide Convention, and gross human rights violations by any means necessary
– Call for the immediate end of Israel’s occupation and apartheid and support Palestinians in their fight for freedom and peace
– 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 and any similar legislation proposed

*Why are you citing reports shared on Telegram?
While Telegram channels on their own are not necessarily credible news reporting, I have found the work Praxis Redacted has done consolidating both official news sources and unofficial citizen reporting (before it becomes breaking news) to be credible, accurate, and substantiated hours or sometimes days later by mainstream news.
Since mid-October when I began following the news about the genocide (and Praxis Redacted), I have not found an incident where sources cited or descriptions used were later proved to be false. I have every reason to believe the events cited below are true.
Most Telegram posts I link will be from Praxis Redacted, but those that are not will be labeled. All of the same disclaimers apply for content warnings and my belief in the credibility of the channels cited. This is a saved text template used across posts, it’s possible no sources outside of Praxis Redacted will be used or that only other channels are cited in this petition. It is also possible that other social media posts will be cited from other platforms, and if so, they will be noted.
