Dear America- STOP RACIST HATE

1948 Palestinian refugees refused their natural, logical, moral, ethical and legal right to return to original homes and lands.

Dear America,

America was very racist before, during and after World War II and the Nazi Holocaust.  In some ways we are better now, but in other ways we are worse:

Funding Israel as Israel subsidizes religious zealots to harass Palestinians and usurp Palestinian land is wrong- and racist.

Arming Israel as it bombs refugee camps, hospitals, and bread bakeries in Gaza is wrong- and racist. 

Ignoring Israel's blatant and long term violations of international law [1948-2023] and the indigenous Palestinians' basic human rights is wrong- and racist.

STOP RACIST HATE- start by ending America's misguided support for the heavily armed and generously subsidized Jews-preferred Israel as Israel aggressively destroys Arab Palestinian homes and lives everywhere and in every way it can. 

The more America supports Israel the more power and weaponry angry armed extremists and their propagandists world wide gain, ensuring more terrorism and more enemies... more injustice... more poverty... more suffering... more hypocrisy... more lies... and more misinformation perpetuating more racist hate and evil in this world. 

Sincerely,

To quote a well known American hero...  "Now is the time to rise from the dark and desolate valley of segregation to the sunlit path of racial justice. Now is the time to lift our nation from the quicksands of racial injustice to the solid rock of brotherhood. Now is the time to make justice a reality for all of God's children."  I Have A Dream speech by Martin Luther King Jr.  in 1963

What should America believe in & what should America invest in? 

There is nothing humanitarian about a pause in which your two options are to either leave your home forever or die ....

Oh hey, a friendly reminder that you can understand, acknowledge, and sympathize with very real generational Jewish trauma and still push for a free Palestine. - Susan Muaddi Darraj

Israel's War on Palestine did not begin on October 7th #1948-2023

Many Palestinian families still have the keys to the houses they left in 1948.
