An open letter to the President & U.S. Congress

POTUS must put strong conditions on Israel funding now.

727 so far! Help us get to 1,000 signers!

The time has come to put strong conditions on any aid going to the Israeli government. Benjamin Netanyahu isn’t listening to President Biden, or to the families of hostages, or to the global community. He’s not interested in negotiating towards peace. He doesn’t seem to care about freeing the hostages. Instead he’s insisting on undertaking an assault on Rafah, a neighborhood filled with starving civilians who have no place left to go. It’s a mission that will have a catastrophically high body count. Any American funding should be conditioned on his absolutely not doing this. In general, I do NOT want my tax dollars paying for missiles, bombs, or armaments to be used against a ravaged population of mostly women and children in Gaza. I don’t want it paying for war crimes. I don’t want it funding settlement expansion. The U.S. has leverage. It’s time use it. Sometimes even our closest friends require tough talk. Put strong conditions on Israel funding now. Thanks.

The One About John Kerry and What a Positive Attitude He Has Even Though He Has The Rough Job of Trying To Get The Middle East To Get Along and Make Everyone Stop Fighting

It’s really heartbreaking how impossible it seems to create sustainable peace. Everyone knows the Americans are pissed off at Assad for killing his people in Syria. But he’s also a secular leader who opposes fundamentalist groups. If he vacates with no strategy in place behind him, it’ll be a one-way ticket to Isis-ville, population all of us poor fucks. But if he keeps fighting his rebels so violently, the Isis types will be even more galvanized. Or he’ll just keep killing people. What to do? That’s what John Kerry and the Saudi king and the Iranian prime minister have to figure out.

What else to know about John Kerry? He’s rich and old-school preppy, it’s true, and he has a ton of homes, but he sounds like a great fucking guy and really tried hard to get everyone’s head out of their asses about Vietnam and he really believes HARD in the power of building relationships and relating to other people – like Assad. Did we know that Assad was a London-educated eye doctor before he started killing people? Just goes to show – none of us are immune to doing weird stuff if we’re put in these crazy paranoiogenic power positions.

It’s so sad to hear Kerry and his wife talk about the election. He wanted to be the Prez so bad, and he didn’t want to put everyone in a state of chaos by forcing a recount after Bush obviously fucked around with our votes. We end the piece on Veterans’ Day with Kerry visiting the tomb of his best buddy in Iraq, among scores and scores of graves because of all these sad wars that we don’t know what to do about.
