Act against genocide, save Palestine
As elected officials you must stand up
Sent to
Red Deer MPs
Red Deer MLAs
Red Deer City Council
Premier Danielle Smith
And ministers:
To our elected representatives,
As a group of Red Deerians we are again writing to demand you, as our elected representatives, take action to stop the genocide Israel is committing in occupied Palestine.
Today the United Nations agency for Palestinian refugees reports food distribution in Gaza’s southern city of Rafah has been suspended due to a lack of supplies.
There is not enough food in Rafah and parents are watching their children starve to death.
Israel is committing genocide with your support. Our MPs have told us they stand with Israel, that they support this genocide. It is simply horrifying.
The International Criminal Court is seeking a warrant for Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu and Defence Minister Yoav Gallant as they bear “criminal responsibility” for “war crimes and crimes against humanity”.
We are calling on you to stand FOR humanity. To stand up for the people being unjustly starved, beaten, bombed, imprisoned and tortured.
This week the UN Security Council heard there are insufficient supplies and fuel to provide any meaningful level of support to the people of Gaza.
“We are running out of words to describe what is happening in Gaza,” said Senior UN aid official Edem Wosornu.
“We have described it as a catastrophe, a nightmare, as hell on earth. It is all of these, and worse,” she said.
As our elected representatives, all of you have power. You have the power to stop this. You must.
What side of history will you be on?
