John,

Israel’s relentless assault on Gaza has reached a new low – it’s now firing into starving crowds desperately waiting for food at aid distribution sites across Gaza, killing more than 130 people in recent days.

It’s all almost too horrific to imagine – made possible by a deadly global weapons pipeline. One of the world’s biggest shipping giants, Maersk, has sent a shocking 1,000 military weapons shipments to Israel alone, including deadly components for F-35 fighter jets used in the relentless bombardment of Gaza.

Right now, more shipments are on the way – and together we could stop them.

Over 100,000 of us have already signed a petition demanding Maersk stop shipping weapons used to massacre Palestinians. But we’re nowhere near done yet.

Our team is gearing up to launch targeted, high-impact ads exposing the executives who signed off on these shipments. Then we could mobilise Maersk employees to push for change from the inside, growing a global wave of outrage to FORCE the company to drop these deadly deals – and keep going to win a more just world for everyone.

We know how to win – but every single day Israel’s weapons of war kill more families and we need resources to scale up fast. Will you chip in now to end the genocide?

These weapons shipments aren’t just routine deliveries. They’re part of a supply chain of death. Maersk’s shipments include parts for engines, targeting systems, and bomb-loading gear used by the F-35 warplane to drop 2,000-pound bombs on homes and refugee camps – leaving the Gaza Strip in ruins.

And after nearly 20 months of nonstop horrors, one thing is clear: Maersk’s involvement in these war crimes won’t stop unless people like us rise up to expose it and demand change.

Earlier this year, our shareholder resolution forced Maersk to finally admit that it ships military cargo to Israel after months of denial. But now, with more shipments on the way, we’re ready to turn up the pressure again and force its leadership to answer for the horrors it is enabling. 

Together, we could unleash an ad blitz all over social media, naming and shaming Maersk executives and drawing direct responsibility for the countless deaths caused by the very weapons they help deliver. Then we could organize Maersk employees to pressure leadership from within, while also pushing investors and partners to force the shipping giant to reckon with the true cost of helping fuel a genocide. 

Pressure has never been higher as governments and corporations across the globe distance themselves from the Israeli government. Everyday people are rising up, from aid flotillas to dock workers refusing to load weapons destined for Israel’s annihilatory war in Gaza.

Now is the moment to FINALLY put an end to the endless supply of weapons fueling the horrors. Will you chip in to help us end the genocide?

We’ve stopped corporate giants before – from fossil fuel funders to rainforest destroyers to tech profiteers. And we can do it again. But this time, the stakes couldn’t be higher.

Gaza is being starved, bombed, and suffocated. The weapons Maersk helps ship are directly enabling Israel’s assault – and every shipment they make is another bullet, bomb, or missile that means more senseless death.
