Some 94 Palestinians have been killed since the start of this year.

According to Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, B'Tselem and the Presbyterian Church Israeli practices, including land expropriation, unlawful killings, forced displacement, restrictions on movement, and denial of citizenship rights amount to the crime of apartheid

Under International law, apartheid crimes create a DUTY to act to end the system and policies of Israel which make up apartheid.

Unrestricted US military aid empowers, facilitates and emboldens Israeli leaders to carry out the crimes of apartheid including the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians and Arabs. Most recently Israeli leaders publicly endorsed this racist policy. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. WE CAN NO LONGER BE COMPLICIT IN AIDING AND ABETTING ISRAEL IN ITS BRUTAL CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY.

Join our campaigns to recognize the human and equal rights of Palestinians and all peoples, to end the Occupation, and instead of supporting and funding Israeli apartheid, demand our representatives and government stop funding and oppose it.
