Tell Congress: Pass an arms embargo on Israel and demand a cease-fire in Gaza

The U.S. cannot claim to be working towards peace while simultaneously sending the weapons that enable genocide. Send a message today! [AFSC logo]( [TAKE ACTION]( Arms embargo and cease-fire now! Dear Friend, You have heard the news. The Israeli government’s siege is starving Palestinian children and has brought Gaza to the brink of a full-blown famine. Polio has made a return. Tens of thousands have been killed directly, and tens of thousands more have likely died from impacts of the war. Gaza lies in ruins. It could take decades to fully rebuild. Despite all of this, the U.S. approved the sale of $20 billion worth of new weapons to Israel in August. It is time for this to end. [Please join AFSC in calling on your representatives to support an arms embargo against Israel. Urge them to insist on a permanent cease-fire.]( The U.S. cannot claim to be working towards peace while simultaneously sending the weapons that enable genocide. The only way to reach a desperately needed lasting cease-fire—including the release of all Israeli and Palestinian captives—is for the U.S. to exert pressure on the Israeli government by supporting a full arms embargo.
