10/27 (in person, Hamilton NJ) 2-4pm - Arms Embargo on Israel! (JVP Central NJ & partners)

Israel is committing Genocide in Gaza — flaunting the ruling of the ICJ (International Criminal Court), and violating US law that prohibits the use of weapons on civilians not involved in war.

We call for an ARMS EMBARGO ON ISRAEL!
DATE: Sunday, 27 October 2024.
TIME: 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM
PLACE: 4573 S. Broad St., Hamilton, NJ

We mourn every life that is destroyed.
Israel has killed 42,000 Palestinians in Gaza* (including 15,000 children) and over 650 Palestinians in the West Bank. Over 2,000 Lebanese citizens have been killed since the end of last month. This is in addition to the tens of thousands injured and maimed by the Israelis.
*The Lancet estimated the death toll at 186,000 in a July 2024 article. As Israel has destroyed Gaza’s Ministry of Health, we may never know the number of those killed by Israel since October 2023, but the widely reported numbers, for many months, of between 30,000 and 42,000 are obviously a severe undercount. As starvation, dehydration, disease, exposure, total lack of sanitation, lack of housing, lack of medical care, lack of everything needed for life, along with constant bombardments, continue, with no end in sight, the numbers will continue to skyrocket.
Israel’s bombs are killing its own hostages in Gaza.
WE DEMAND:
● The U.S. stops sending weapons to Israel
● Israel stops killing people in Lebanon, the West Bank, and Gaza.
● Israel stops blocking humanitarian aid to Gaza
● Endorse the Joint Resolution of Disapproval (JRD) to stop the sale of $20 billion in offensive U.S. weaponry to Israel
STOP THE GENOCIDE. FREE PALESTINE!
Bring signs, banners, Palestinian flags, noise makers!
