Genocide enabler

 

The shame of Rep. Pat Ryan. Pretending to be for the ceasefire while sending bombs and bullets to Israel. 

Why does he do it? Take a look at how much he pulls in from the Israel Lobby. He is a genocide enabler.

Here are 5 more actions YOU can take to challenge this complicity and support the Palestinian struggle for freedom, justice and equality:
 
  1. Work with progressive networks to pressure parliaments and governments to (a) end all military-security cooperation and trade with apartheid Israel; (b) ban all goods/services of companies operating in Israel’s illegal colonial settlements; and (c) promote UN action to investigate and dismantle Israeli apartheid, as was done with the apartheid regime in South Africa.
  2. Mobilize institutional pressure campaigns (including boycotts or divestment) against Israeli and international companies and banks that are complicit in Israeli war crimes and crimes against humanity.
  3. Mobilize your community, trade union, association, church, social network, student government/union, city council, cultural center, or other organization to declare it an #ApartheidFreeZone (AFZ), ending all relations with apartheid Israel and companies/institutions that are complicit in its system of oppression.
  4. Initiate/support boycotts of all academic, cultural, sports, and tourism engagements taking place in/sponsored by apartheid Israel or its lobby groups and complicit institutions.
  5. Join a BDS campaign or a strategic Palestine solidarity group near you to act collectively and effectively.

Saturday's Art Walk in Beacon

Saturday's Art Walk in Beacon brought with it free slices of watermelon. As it turns out, watermelon is a symbol of Palestinian resistance to the occupation. The fruit has the four colors of the Palestinian flag, and as a result artists in the West Bank are forbidden to depict them.

That was not the case in Beacon on Saturday, as members of several Palestinian rights groups handed out watermelons and flyers along the sidewalk. Members of Jewish Voice For Peace and Middle East Crisis Response called attention to the Israeli soldiers and armed settlers who are destroying Palestinian homes, schools, farms, and infrastructure.
