Cleveland Peace Action, without reservation, condemns the
unprovoked attacks by Israel upon the people of besieged
Gaza. In the latest round of attacks begun by Israel, at least
50 people have been killed with sixteen of them children.
Health officials in Gaza estimate that almost 400 people have
been injured in the attacks. We are stunned, not only by the
loss of life and injury to the working people and children of
Gaza, but also by the tacit support of the bombings by the
Biden Administration. Equally outrageous is biased coverage of
this latest attack on Gaza. Both the coverage offered by one
of the beacons of establishment liberalism, The New York
Times, and also by the Public Broadcasting Company are so
one-sided in favor of Israel that they scarcely qualify as
“news.” Why did Israel attack now? Many observers suspect
that Israel Prime Minister Yair Lapid, wants to bolster his
anti-Arab credentials with the electorate in Israel because of
a surge in the polls by his opponent Benjamin Netanyahu who
has made a career out of anti-Arab bigotry. The election will
be held later this fall. Cleveland Peace Action calls on
President Biden to condemn the Israeli bombing and to demand
that Israel honors the ceasefire brokered by Egypt. It seems
to be a ritual that every time an Israeli politician faces an
election, they try to improve poll numbers by killing more
and more people in Gaza.
END US MILITARY AID TO ISRAEL!!! LIFT THE SIEGE GAZA!!!
