1/21 Petition to Biden & U.S. Congress

An American child was brutally executed recently by Israelis in the occupied West Bank. Tawfiq Ajaq and his friends were having a barbecue when he was shot in the head and the chest. The Israeli military forces detained Tawfiq’s relative at the scene, requiring their identification verified before they were allowed to go to Tawfiq’s side. Sadly, he died in the ambulance on the way to the hospital.

Tawfiq was born and raised in Gretna, Louisiana. His family moved to Palestine last year to provide their children the opportunity to reconnect with their culture and heritage. Tawfiq was born and raised in Gretna, Louisiana. His family moved to Palestine last year to provide their children the opportunity to reconnect with their culture and heritage.

He is unfortunately one of many who have been murdered throughout occupied Palestine. Israel’s barbaric violence has been extending beyond Gaza this entire time. He and his family deserve justice and safety. I care for all Palestinians, but it’s clear you do not. Are you going to prove to us, once again, you don’t even care for American lives? Do something now.

I demand that you: 

– Call for an immediate and permanent ceasefire in Gaza, the West Bank, and all areas the Israeli military is murdering or otherwise violating the human rights of Palestinians

– Call for the immediate end of genocide, apartheid, and occupation, and support Palestinians in their fight for freedom, peace, and their human rights

– Call for the immediate release of Palestinian “prisoners” (hostages) held captive in Israeli military prisons

– Permanently end all monetary and military aid given to Israel by correcting our budget and enforcing Leahy Law

– Reallocate all funds given to Israel to ongoing humanitarian relief for Palestinians to help them rebuild, care for the sick & injured, bury the dead with dignity, and ensure all of their basic needs are taken care of

– Repeal all federal anti-BDS laws and pass legislation that voids all state-level anti-BDS laws

– Restore my right to free speech and the freedom of the press by condemning all discrimination or harassment for criticizing any government or political ideology (including zionism) and by doing everything possible to prevent future assaults to my rights, including governmental control and/or censorship of the Internet

– Stop the militarization of our police by ending all cross-training done with the Israeli military, ceasing the construction of the Atlanta Public Safety Training Center, and all other ways this is accomplished

– Pass legislation that prohibits any governmental action that would target any ethnic, religious, or other minority group (including Palestinians), either in the U.S. or abroad, by restricting humanitarian or financial aid, infringing on their human rights, or other actions that would otherwise bring harm or cause undue burdens on said groups
