CFL ALERT: End The Israeli Occupation Now
6/5/2003 Marks 36 years of the illegal occupation, subjugation, and humiliation of the Palestinian people by Israel. As supporters of democracy, we must demand that President Bush and the American government truly and justly speak out for self-determination and sovereignty for Palestinians on their own land. Please take a moment to write to the President and to your Representatives and tell them that 36 years of Israeli sponsored apartheid should end. The US must implement a just and peaceful solution to this conflict immediately. Free Palestine!
TALKING POINTS:
* For 36 years the United States has continued to fund Israeli abuses of international law and human rights, contrary to the Arms Export Control Act which states that the US will not supply arms to any country that uses them on unarmed civilian populations.
* Total U.S. aid to Israel is approximately one-third of the American foreign-aid budget. This year alone we have spent over $10 billion (grants and loans combined). This amount surpasses what we give to any other nation including African nations currently suffering from the AIDS epidemic where foreign aid is most desperately needed. With the current economic climate and the need for funding of domestic programs and issues like social security, unemployment, and education, sending aid to Israel is a gross misuse of tax-payer funds.
* Unfettered support for Israel has created a global destabilizing force that threatens the people of the Middle East and the rest of the world. We simply cannot ignore the anger and resentment towards our own nation; we should not continue to support Israel at the expense of our own security.
