18 Palestinians, 4 Israelis dead. In the last 48 hrs.
While Israelis run to bomb shelters, Palestinians have nowhere to run or hide, trapped in the open air prison of Gaza. We pray for the safety of Israeli & Palestinian civilians, whose leaders treat their lives as expendable.

We cannot look at this in isolation. This latest flareup is the result of years of deliberate Israeli political decisions to keep Gaza on the brink of a humanitarian crisis. The indifference of Israelis, Americans — Jews and non-Jews alike — to this is appalling.
As Israelis prepare for Eurovision parties, less than an hour away Palestinians in Gaza lack access to their most basic needs — clean water, electricity, safe shelter, freedom of movement.
This status quo is unacceptable. We all have a responsibility to work to change it.
