Good. Obviously it won’t pass, but we have to start somewhere.

Reach out to your congressional rep, if you’re into that

Americans are about to find out how much their reps love genocide

Last week Senator Bernie Sanders (I-VT) announced that he had introduced legislation to block a $20 billion arms sale to Israel.

The Joint Resolutions of Disapproval would 👉prevent the delivery of 💥offensive 💥weapons that the State Department approved in August, just days before ceasefire talks were set to resume.

The package includes fighter jets and advanced air-to-air missiles.

“Sadly, and illegally, much of the carnage in Gaza has been carried out with U.S.-provided military equipment,” said Sanders in a statement.

🔥“Providing more offensive weapons to continue this disastrous war would violate U.S. and international law.
The sales would reward Netanyahu’s extremist government, even as it continues to cause massive destruction in Gaza,
undermine the prospects of a ceasefire deal that would secure the release of the hostages,
and advance its effort to illegally annex the West Bank.

Congress must act to save lives, uphold U.S. and international law, and stand up for U.S. interests.

We must end our complicity in Israel’s illegal and indiscriminate military campaign,
which has caused mass civilian death and suffering.”

The effort was cosponsored by Senators Jeff #Merkley (D-OR), Peter #Welch (D-VT), and Brian #Schatz (D-HI).

Pull the plug on the iron dome while you’re at it.
