Much of what the Corporate Controlled Main Stream Media refuses to publish and make available has been posted on this site.
It can only be suggested that before you believe the MSM Propaganda, consider gathering the FACTS and learn about the history that is too often ignored.
Americans are arming Israel to kill civilians, women and children, ignoring settlements condemned by the rest of the world and much else.
Is this GENOCIDE with US Taxpayer Support?
I wanted to make sure that you saw this powerful note from Abir Elzowidi calling
for peace in Gaza and Israel that Just Foreign Policy sent out yesterday. Also,
if you had problems signing or sharing Abir's petition last night, I wanted to
let you know that those problems are fixed and you can now sign and share the
petition freely. Finally: I wanted to share that in a little over twelve hours,
we've had 43 people sign up to deliver Abir's petition to their local
Congressional office on Thursday! Thanks for all you do - Robert

Dear Robert,
My name is Abir Elzowidi. I work in Los Angeles for a small NGO called
“Oasis of Peace” promoting peaceful co-existence between Israelis and
Palestinians, Christians, Muslims and Jews.
A few days
ago, five members of my family—including two small children—were killed in my
village of Beit Hanoun in Gaza. A few days before, several other
family members were told to leave their homes and made to stand by and watch as
members of the Israeli Defense Force bombed their homes. They are now homeless,
including my 93 year-old grandmother. Now I am afraid for the safety of my
mother, my sister, my brother and their children in Gaza City as
they are bombing randomly all around them. They, like others
in Gaza, have nowhere safe to go.
I am grieving but I need
your support. Together, we are not powerless. We can use our voices in this
country to say enough is enough: stop the bombing, stop killing innocent
children!
Thursday, July 24, will be a national day of action
on Gaza. Here are two things you can do to help stop the
violence:
·Sign my petition calling on the Obama
Administration and Congress to use all the tools at their disposal to end the
violence and lift the blockade of Gaza.

·Sign up to deliver petition signatures to your
Representative or Senator’s local office. We’ll help you
every step of the way. Just fill out our quick form to let us know you’re
interested.

As of Monday, July 21, at least 550 Palestinians have been killed and
3,350 wounded since the new round of violence started two weeks ago
in Gaza. Twenty-seven Israelis, including 25 soldiers and two
civilians, have been killed.
The US, Israel and Egypt put together a
ceasefire agreement last week, but what they proposed did not address a root
cause of the violence: Israel’s seven year-old economic blockade
of Gaza . We need to stop the killing now, but we also need to
prevent more killing in the future. Lifting the siege is the only way to stop
the killing long-term—and keep more people like me from losing family members in
the future.
Please help me stop the killing in Gaza. Sign the
petition telling the Obama Administration and Congress to stop the violence and
lift the blockade of Gaza.

Thanks
for all you do to help end the violence,
