3/25 Petition to Biden & U.S. Congress

The horrors truly never end. I’m not surprised anymore, but the disturbing, disgusting nature of the genocide Israel is committing against Palestinians never ceases to bring tears to my eyes. While children are slowly being starved to death in Gaza, children across occupied Palestine are being tortured and beaten. Yesterday, 3/24, a small child was forced to strip whilst Israeli soldiers beat him in the middle of a supermarket in Hebron, one of the occupied cities in the West Bank. His crime? He was with his family shopping. If I have access and the ability to view this, I know you can and see so much more than I ever have. When will this be enough for you to do something?

Earlier today, 3/25, Israel announced they would no longer allow any food convoys into northern Gaza. Those trapped in northern Gaza are the most at risk for imminent death by starvation in the coming days and weeks. If nothing is done, they will all die. The UN chief has made it clear that massive, unrestricted humanitarian aid is direly needed into northern Gaza. This is a man-made famine weaponized by Israel. The world cannot allow this to continue. I am begging you to use every single thing at your disposal to make Israel stop this genocide.

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

Telegram* sources may contain graphic content, viewer discretion is advised.

*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.
