| This is not the first time Israeli forces have murdered American citizens. Israel has a long history of killing Americans and facing no consequences from the United States. In 2003, the Israeli military ran over and crushed Rachel Corrie, an American citizen, with a bulldozer and faced no repercussions. In 2010, a U.N. fact-finding mission determined that Israeli commandos executed U.S. citizen Furkan Dogan during the Gaza flotilla, which was attempting to deliver aid to Gaza. Israel faced no repercussions. More recently, Israeli forces murdered Shireen Abu Akleh, shooting her in the head while she was reporting on a raid in Jenin, and killed Omar Assad, a 78-year-old American man, by handcuffing, beating, and leaving him to die. Israel faced no repercussions. The United States is failing to protect its citizens—this must end. Our government must prioritize the safety of American lives over the interests of a foreign government. If the most powerful country in the world cannot defend its citizens from being murdered by Israel, it is abdicating its responsibility. This cannot continue! The Biden Administration can stop Israel from massacring Americans at will today if it wants to. However, they’ve proved time and time again that they care less about Americans than they care about the approval of a foreign government. This is not right. President Biden must open an investigation into Eygi’s murder. Email your Members of Congress and President Biden using our action tool and urge your friends and family to do the same. Let them know we will not let out until they PROTECT AMERICANS FROM ISRAEL. Thank you for taking action. |
