GAZA! Stop the U.S.-Backed Israeli Slaughter of Palestinians!

”Gazans who are not killed directly by bombs, are dying from inability to have wounds attended to. They are isolated, trapped and starving within a blockade—many without medical aid, food, water and electricity. The siege, which had been going on for a year is now ‘a full-blown humanitarian crisis,’ in the words of the United Nations. The pause to allow a limited amount of humanitarian aid in, while destroying Gaza, is only a cosmetic face put on in the attempt to eliminate an entire population. Gaza City and refugee camps are in rubble, mosques, schools and hospitals destroyed, and the ground invasion continues the assault. The situation threatens to engulf the whole Middle East and it is not, in any way, making Israelis safe. No one should be killed and we don’t condone any deaths, but do not allow the political mantra, ‘Israel has a right to defend itself’ disguise the high tech wounding and slaughter of massive numbers of Palestinians. The U.S. supplied the weapons and military gear.”—WAMM
