Israel receives $4 billion in military aid from the United States each year. The bullets and the bombs that kill Palestinian men, women and children are bought and paid for by American tax dollars. More than 200 people in Gaza have been killed and more than 1,500 have been wounded from Israeli bombs and missiles. This has to end!
Israel’s latest attack on the people of Palestine has been one more act of brutal violence by an occupying power. In order to maintain its military occupation of the Palestinian people, Israel is willing to kill families with children, blow up homes and schools, and make life intolerable for 1.5 million people. This has nothing to do with the rockets that were fired from Gaza. There can be no real peace until Israel ends its occupation of the Palestinian people.
