ENOUGH IS ENOUGH
We REFUSE to allow our votes to continue to be complicit in GENOCIDE.
You want our vote, Joe? Earn it.
We are done witnessing indiscriminate death and destruction funded by our tax dollars.
We are done scrolling past thousands of videos of babies being pulled out of rubble, or being starved, knowing our elected leaders are to blame.
We are done waiting for those in power to hear the pleas of the children of Gaza.
The Plan:
1. We hope to create a national registry of Pro-Palestinian US voters that vow to withhold their votes until certain concessions are made by the Democratic Party and the Biden Administration.
2. In having as many Pro-Palestinian voters take such an oath, particularly in the midst of what will surely be an incredibly competitive election, we hope to amass political capital and use this as leverage to force the White House and the Democratic Party as a whole to no longer be “progressive, except for Palestine”.
3. Should we succeed in signing up a notable amount of voters our group has certain connections to both the White House specifically and the Democratic Party generally and we hope to use this leverage to negotiate the future of the American left with respect to Palestine.
Our Demands
1. US calling for an immediate and permanent ceasefire;
2. US immediately providing for (non-air dropped) Humanitarian Aid into Gaza;
3. Increase UNRWA funding to 150% pre-October 7th funding levels;
4. Immediate plan for, and steps towards, a two- or three-state solution; and
5. Ceasing any further financial aid to the State of Israel (or alternatively, making this aid conditional on their accepting and progressing the proposed two- or three-state solution referred above).
We are Angry. and Scared. It has to change.
Like many of you, we are angry. Scared. We feel like we are losing our minds on a daily basis. How is nobody seeing what is happening? How are, not just people, but our ELECTED REPRESENTATIVES, SUPPORTING this? And yet, in just over six months we are supposed to go to the polls and vote for the same man that has enabled this genocide since day 1? Pardon our language - but fuck that.
Yes, the consequences of another Trump presidency will be truly devastating, something none of us want. But we can no longer permit this Administration to reap the rewards of our votes while they continue to enable the bombing and massacre of innocent civilians overseas.
This country has a choice. Stop the killing. Or we ALL lose. Help us force their hand.
