and exhaustion.
John,
The UN is calling the people of Gaza “walking corpses”. Israel’s aid
blockade is starving children and babies to death.
It’s a sickening escalation of Israel’s genocide. But the haunting images
are forcing a global reckoning and after years of silence and inaction
world leaders are finally starting to shift course.
France, the UK, and Canada all say they’ll recognise Palestine. Despite
the Israeli government’s PR campaign of denial, even Donald Trump admitted
there’s starvation in Gaza, a crack in Israel’s most critical alliance.
Amidst the tragedy, we are witnessing a historic and monumental shift. But
empty words from panicking world leaders aren’t enough. In this critical
moment, with so many lives on the line, we need an urgent all-out push to
demand real, life-saving action.
YEARS of campaigning by movements like ours have helped bring us to this
point. We have our best chance to end the horrors in Gaza, and Israel’s
illegal occupation. A groundswell of public outcry now could change
everything. Can you chip in to fuel this bold and urgent work?

Israel’s genocidal assault on Gaza has been raging for almost two years.
It shouldn’t have taken the deaths of over 60,000 Palestinians and the
“worst-case scenario” famine to move world leaders to speak out. But with
international pressure reaching boiling point, public opinion is even
shifting in Israel.
Israeli human rights monitors have said for the first time that Israel is
committing genocide in Gaza, and tens of Israeli public figures are
calling for major sanctions on Israel and demanding a permanent
ceasefire.
There’s no denying the crimes being perpetrated against Palestinians. And
governments are finally starting to feel the heat. We’re working flat-out
to pressure EU lawmakers to suspend the EU-Israel Trade Association
Agreement, the deal that gives Israel privileged trade access to Europe,
and we’re closer than ever before to making it happen.
40 Members of the European Parliament have just called on the EU to
suspend its trade with Israel – and now Germany’s Chancellor Merz has said
that Germany could pivot its stance and be in SUPPORT of reviewing this
major deal.
It’s a major shift but lawmakers won't act unless they're blasted from
every angle. We need to rapidly ramp up our campaigns to keep our demands
to sanction Israel and recognise Palestine front and centre, making it
impossible for them to be swept under the rug – but we can't do it alone.
If we all chip in a little, we could unleash a wave of tactics like
polling, hard-hitting ads, global public demonstrations, and more.
Together, we could do whatever it takes to give world leaders no other
option but to finally hold Israel accountable for its crimes against
humanity.
Now is the moment to tip the balance for peace in Gaza. Can you chip in to
end the cycle of death?
