Stop Israel's Slaughter

IN GAZA, the enforced starvation and denial of humanitarian aid, the piracy of life-giving resources such as fuel and water, the denial of medicines and treatment, the systematic destruction of infrastructure and the killing and maiming of the civilian population, 50 percent of whom are children, meet the international standard of the Genocide Convention.
"Is it an irresponsible overstatement," asked Richard Falk, the United Nations Special Rapporteur for Human Rights in the Occupied Palestinian Territory and international law authority at Princeton University, "to associate the treatment of Palestinians with this criminalized Nazi record of collective atrocity? I think not."
Hundreds of thousands of people, from the Middle East to Washington, DC to 400 this past Saturday in Amherst, have protested Israel's bombing of the Palestinian people in Gaza and the support and complicity of the US government, which funds and support the ongoing slaughter and strangulation of Gaza. Come to a meeting to discuss the situation and how we can build an anti-war movement to stop it.
