.@USProgressives you can't call yourself progressive if you're silent when Palestinian people are being ethnically cleansed by the Israeli military that the U.S. funds.
What do you support: justice for the Palestinian people or the Israeli apartheid regime?
Congress must act now to pass #HR2590 to prohibit our tax dollars from funding home demolition & ethnic cleansing and end our complicity in the destruction of homes like the Salhiyeh family's in Jerusalem, which leaves 18 people homeless in freezing temps. #SaveSheikhJarrah
@RepDebDingell@RepHankJohnson@RepLowenthal Thank you for speaking up in May 2021. Right now, Israel is escalating ethnic cleansing, expelling Palestinian families from Sheikh Jarrah to the Naqab. Will you speak again & sign on to #HR2590 to oppose US funds for home demolitions?
@GerryConnolly@RepEscobar@JanSchakowsky Thank you for speaking up in May 2021. Right now, Israel is escalating ethnic cleansing, expelling Palestinian families from Sheikh Jarrah to the Naqab. Will you speak again & sign on to #HR2590 to oppose US funds for home demolitions?
Thank you @repmarkpocan for naming that Israel's settler colonial violence must end.
It's in our hands to end this. It's time to end U.S. military funding to Israel.
In cold heavy rain & in a pandemic, ~50 Israeli officers stormed the Salahiyas' house, beat people, arrested 6, & destroyed the home the family had fought so hard to protect.
Why now? Israel waited until attention turned away.
Pay attention to eyewitness reports, like that of Yasmeen Salhiyeh, 19, in this article. Right now, there's no information on the whereabouts of the 6 Salahiya family members arrested.
🚨🚨🚨BREAKING in Sheikh Jarrah: The brutal Israeli apartheid regime is arresting and expelling the Salahiya family, who on Monday defended their home from the rooftop saying they'd rather burn it down than be ethnically cleansed
As Palestinian people in the Naqab resist ethnic cleansing, the brutal Israeli regime is escalating its attacks, arresting 40+ Palestinians (including many children) last night.
Israel uses greenwashing to cover it up: "Planting trees" while expelling Indigenous Palestinians.
This Green Colonialism graphic from @visualizingpal breaks down how Israel greenwashes its crimes & colonization.
Israeli parks & trees are covering up depopulated Palestinian villages.
Don't fall for Israel's colonial lies.
The Naqab is not empty land, but home to Indigenous Palestinian Bedouins who Israel is attempting to ethnically cleanse, as @yarahawari unpacks here.
Thank you to all who joined the Power Half-Hour Call-In to call out Biden & #StandWithThe6! Our efforts are forcing real action, like #StandWithThe6 resolution H. Res. 751, but the White House has remained shamefully silent.
"It is the bold proactive, landscape-changing action & advocacy that these organizations do that have led to them being targeted," said USCPR's Sana Siddiq.
"Their work directly supports Palestinian farmers facing displacement, children in military courts, prisoners, & more."
288 US orgs are calling the Biden admin to immediately & unequivocally condemn Israel’s criminalization of 6 Palestinian human rights orgs. Their letter: ccrjustice.org/letter-secreta…
@POTUS, pick a side: Palestinian human rights or Israeli apartheid?
