The world has watched as Palestine has endured 70 years of occupation, violence, and genocide. Palestinian people are denied the right to return to their lands and are forced to live as refugees in what amounts to an open air prison, unable to access reliable electricity or even clean drinking water. Meanwhile, Israeli occupiers steal more and more Palestinian land, and meet protests with brutality.
Over the past several weeks, Israeli violence towards the Palestinian people has once again escalated as the Palestinian people participate in the Great March of Return, calling for an end to the brutal occupation. Israeli snipers are firing live ammunition into crowds, slaughtering innocent Palestinians with impunity. Nonviolent protesters, medics, journalists, and children, including an 8-month-old baby have all been murdered by occupying IDF forces in the past week alone.
Join us in solidarity as we stand with the people of Palestine against Israeli occupation and genocide. We will meet Thursday at 4:30 PM at Martin Luther King, Jr. memorial plaza in downtown Pensacola.

Join the protest to express our outrage at the massacre perpetrated by Israel on 14 May 2018, the anniversary of the Nakba, the establishment of the Israeli state and the dispossession of the Palestinian people – and also the date of Trump’s move of the US embassy to Jerusalem, capital of Palestine.
We protest to express our solidarity with the Palestinian people and their struggle for justice, freedom, return and dignity on their land.
We protest to demand that Belgium and European authorities issue a firm condemnation of the massacre and impose sanctions on Israel, a rogue state that constantly violates international law.

– pour exprimer notre colère face au massacre perpétré par Israël ce 14 mai 2018, date de la Nakbah (ou catastrophe en arabe) qu’a signifié la création de l’état d’Israël voici 70 ans et date du déménagement de l’ambassade de Trump à Jérusalem, capitale de la Palestine.
– pour exprimer toute notre solidarité avec le peuple palestinien en lutte pour retrouver justice, liberté et dignité sur sa terre.
– pour exiger de la Belgique, comme des instances européennes, une condamnation ferme de ce massacre et des sanctions exemplaires d’Israël, état voyou qui ne cesse de contrevenir à toutes les conventions du droit international.

Over 87 unarmed Palestinians have now been shot dead while protesting as part of the #GreatReturnMarch in Gaza. As Israel’s closest ally and major military funder, the US has immense power to pressure Israel to stop the killing, and to hold Israel accountable.
Rep Jan Schakowsky has already, as a result of our phone calls, meetings and vigils, issued a call to the IDF to stop targeting unarmed protesters. Since they have clearly not stopped, she needs to back that statement up and be a leader in calling for an investigation, both of the shootings and also of possible US funding of the units involved, which would be illegal under the Leahy Laws.
Rep Schakowsky needs to see and hear that the slaughter of Gazans is of urgent concern to her constituents. Join us in picketing outside Rep Schakowsky’s Chicago office, as we call on her to take meaningful action.

On Monday, May 14, Israeli forces killed at least 58 Palestinians in Gaza and wounded thousands. This is the response to the near-culmination of the historic #GreatReturnMarch, where for six weeks, tens of thousands of Palestinians — families, children, elders — have been gathering along the fence that keeps 2 million people penned in in an open air prison. They’ve been mobilizing creatively, bravely, with reading circles and kite flying and Dabke dancing, demanding the right to live out their lives freely, and to return home.
Meanwhile, at the very same time on Monday morning, just miles away in Jerusalem, Jared, Ivanka and others, like ADL’s CEO Jonathon Greenblatt (in stark opposition to the vast majority of American Jews who opposed the move), were clinking glasses to celebrate the moving of the US embassy to Jerusalem, a green light for continued Israeli annexation of Palestinian lands.
This is the ongoing Nakba.
While Senator Schumer praised Trump’s embassy move, calling it “long overdue,” Senator Gillibrand has for 6 weeks remained silent on the ongoing massacre of unarmed protestors in Gaza by Israeli forces. These atrocities are made possible by unparalleled US backing — so we must demand accountability.
This Wednesday, we invite our Jewish communities to come together outside the offices of Schumer & Gillibrand to say: NOT IN OUR NAME. Palestinians have the right to live in freedom and dignity, and the right to return home.
