Confraternal Cowardice

Re:-- Congressional silence in face of Israel's statement that it was prepared to inflict a "holocaust" [sic] on Gaza.

I never voted for or against anyone on account of race, gender, religion or ethnic origin. By the same token I don't expect any public official to put his/her race, gender, religion or ethnic ties over what is right for the country (USA) and what is morally right.

Unfortunately there is a large number of Jewish officials elected and otherwise who are putting their ethnic ties over what is expedient for the United States and over what is humane and moral.

What Israel is doing in Gaza is a war crime. It violates international law, and it conforms to the categories of genocide developed and defined by Rafael Lemkin, himself a Polish Jew.

It is time to put an end to AIPACs influence and I demand that you condemn Israel's threatened "holocaust" on Gaza.

Dont even think of bullshitting. ADL did not spend two years brow-beating Congress against recognizing an Armenian Holocaust if "shoah" only meant the "kitchen mess" or "picnic fiasco"

Don't even think of bullshitting. I have read what the IDF said about the limiting "calories" in order to bring pressure to bear; i.e. starvation as geo-political policy.

Don't even thing of bullshitting. Israel does not exist in terror under a "rain" of fire-crackers. I know the numbers so do you.

Don't even think of bullshitting. Israel refuses to recognize an elected government. It has turned three truce offers and it is engaged in disproportionate and indiscriminate response. You know, like Lidice. It has also exposed Gaza to imminent risk of typhus... you know like in the ghettos and camps.

You stand up and speak out for what is decent and morally right or I will never vote for you or your cohorts again.
