To the citizens of Israel,
The catastrophe in Gaza demands your urgent moral attention. Since October 2023, nearly 80,000 Palestinians—mostly women and children—have been killed by Israeli military operations, according to credible United Nations data and Gaza’s Ministry of Health. More than 90% of Gaza’s 2 million residents have lost their homes, forced to flee repeatedly as relentless bombing and ground attacks have reduced entire neighborhoods, hospitals, schools, and essential infrastructure to rubble.
Today, almost half a million people face starvation and three-quarters of Gaza’s population are now at catastrophic or emergency levels of food deprivation. Israeli authorities have deliberately blocked humanitarian aid, cut off food, water, fuel, and medical supplies, and attacked civilians—including at food distribution points where over 851 people, including children, have been killed trying to access food.
International humanitarian organizations and the United Nations explicitly warn that using starvation as a weapon, destroying basic necessities, and systematically targeting civilians, constitutes “grave international crimes” and aligns with the legal definition of genocide.
This is not “self-defense.” Indiscriminate bombardment, the creation of famine, the forced displacement of millions, and the crushing of an entire civilian population violate every standard of decency and international law.
History will note not only the actions of the Israeli government, but also the silence or complicity of those who refused to speak out.
The world is demanding an end to this horror. It is your duty to refuse participation in these crimes—oppose genocide. Demand an immediate ceasefire, the free entry of humanitarian aid, and accountability for all perpetrators.
Your conscience, your children’s future, and humanity itself require it.
Stop this now—before Gaza is lost forever.
