It is against US law to provide weapons to forces who block United States humanitarian assistance. And that is exactly what is happening right now

This is the best summary I could come up with:


I know a man, a decent man, who said that “preventing genocide is an achievable goal, a goal that requires a level of government organization and engagement that matches in its intensity the brutality and efficiency required to carry out mass killing.

A famine that is being intentionally precipitated through the blocking of food and global humanitarian assistance by leaders in the Israeli government.

This is a mass starvation of people, engineered and orchestrated following the killing of another 30,000, 70% of whom were women and children.

It looks like thousands of children eating grass as their bodies consume themselves, while trucks of food are slowed and halted just miles away.

And fulfill our obligations to the American people to suspend the transfer of US weapons to the Israeli government in order to stop and prevent further atrocity.

Blocking assistance from one’s closest allies to starve a million people is not unintentional.
