As the violence and loss of life in the Holy Land unfolds before us, people of faith and all people of conscience must do what we can to reverse the course that Israel and the United States are following.

The Israeli military is making good on its promise to “open the gates of hell” on the 2.2 million Palestinians trapped under the Israeli siege of Gaza. 

The casualties are terrifying. Close to 40,000 killed directly by this genocidal assault, perhaps over 180,000 dead from untreated injuries, disease, and starvation. Hospitals no longer functioning, and very little medical aid remaining anywhere. Millions displaced, with no safe haven to be found anywhere in this small strip where they are imprisoned. 

The United States should be offering solutions that promote life, justice, and peace. Instead, the U.S. government continues to support this horrifying genocide, merely making feeble calls for Israel to abide by international law.

How can any responsible government leaders who claim to support human rights endorse the continuation and expansion of terrifying crimes against humanity?

In the United States, millions of people have been voting with their feet and their voices and their keyboards for U.S. leaders to help save the people of Gaza. Now there are dozens in Congress calling for ceasefire also.
We must keep raising our voices in every way we can.

Deeply disturbing also is the rampant violence and ethnic cleansing by Israeli settlers and soldiers in the West Bank and the cruel lockdown imposed on millions of Palestinians there. 

U.S. leaders should address those conditions as well, calling for the protection for all Palestinian civilians in the West Bank and an end to the punishing lockdown they are living under now.

Regarding the prisoners held by Hamas, when calling for their release, that call should include Israel's political prisoners, especially children, and including all those held under "administrative detention" by Israel without charge or trial.

This is a time of moral reckoning for the world. We must continue to do all we can to convince the U.S. government to change course and intervene to stop the destruction in Gaza as well as the rise in violence and ethnic cleansing in the West Bank.

In the long term, we know there is only one way to end this violence: by addressing the root causes of what is happening today - 76 years of Israeli ethnic cleansing, military occupation, and apartheid. 

But in this crucial moment we need to unite in calling for the most immediate and urgent needs. Tell the U.S. Congress and President Biden to:

END the supplies of U.S. weapons to Israel.
DEMAND an immediate and permanent ceasefire,
AND ample humanitarian aid for Gaza, with restoration of electricity and water.
CALL for the release of political captives - especially children - held by both Israel and Hamas, and
CALL for protection for Palestinians in the West Bank.
