Please Help
Spread the Word
Please
please pick up the phone or write an email and tell and your
government officials to protest the Israeli assault in GAZA; tell
them you do not want your tax dollars to support the continued
military occupation of Palestine; tell them you oppose any increase
in military support for the Israeli occupation; tell them you want
military dollars to convert to peace dollars to ensure that
Palestinians can enjoy the same rights and resources Israel grants
its Jewish citizens but denies non Jews both in Israel and most
tragically in Palestine. And finally, tell them that Israel must
recognize Hamas as the democratically elected government of
Palestine. Real terrorism occurs when Israel occupies, bombs, and
starves the Palestinian people, displaces Palestinians with the
continued expansion of the Jewish settlements, refuses to recognize
Hamas, and ignores the peace overtures and proposals of the Arab
States.
To
learn more on the dire circumstances in Gaza, click here for the
joint report from Amnesty International, CARE International UK,
CAFOD, Christian Aid, Médecins du Monde UK, Oxfam, Save The Children
UK, and Trócaire entitled "The
Gaza Strip: A Humanitarian Implosion."
The end to violence and death in
GAZA is our responsibility.
