Dear President Biden ... Please stop supporting Israel and Israeli racism for everyone's sake.

Hope (أمل)، oil on canvas, 1985- Sliman Mansour "May this year bring new happiness, new goals, new achievements, many new inspirations to your life, and most importantly, may it be a year closer to a free Palestine."

 

Dear President Biden,

Good State of the Union speech last night. There is hope for America.

And deep within that hope that our democracy and economy will flourish for all Americans, not just a lucky few at the top, may I ask that we notice the very real plight of the Palestinians who have so little hope left due to rampant Israeli racism.

In 1948, after seeing the real horrors wrought by racism and the Nazi Holocaust, the world came together to create The Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

Modern man-made Israel, also created in 1948, has no excuse for being so cruel to the native non-Jewish people of historic Palestine.

The Palestinian refugee crisis created by Zionists in 1948 goes on and on and on, with countless men women and children waiting for their inalienable legal and moral Right to Return to original homes and lands to be respected.  BUT Israel wants to be "Jewish", and so Israel demonizes and destroys people who object to that misguided notion. Palestinians get hit the hardest, but even American politicians and teachers who dare speak out risk their careers.

Please stand up for what is right and good. Set the right example. America should not be funding and fueling racism in any way shape or form.

Please notice that Israel built a land grabbing (apartheid) wall as if it supports a two state solution to end the Israel/Palestine conflict, but then at the same time Israel also builds and extends expensive Israeli-only road systems beyond the Israeli built "border" wall through out the illegally occupied territories, AND Israel also funds Jewish-only settlement neighborhoods beyond that "border" wall.  

Meanwhile Palestinians are harassed and cut off from their homes and families and employment due to Israeli checkpoints created to protect a cruel apartheid system...   NEVER AGAIN needs to include all human beings, not just Jewish ones.  Please stop supporting Israel and Israeli racism for everyone's sake.

Sincerely,
Anne Selden Annab
