I am writing out of sheer outrage over the blatant lies told by Secretary of State Antony Blinken regarding Israel’s ongoing blockade of Gaza. According to ProPublica, Blinken publicly denied that Israel was blocking humanitarian aid, but the facts tell a very different story. Israel has actively prevented critical aid—including food, medical supplies, and clean water—from reaching a population that is on the brink of total collapse. (https://www.propublica.org/article/gaza-palestine-israel-blocked-humanitarian-aid-blinken (https://www.propublica.org/article/gaza-palestine-israel-blocked-humanitarian-aid-blinken))
This is not just an administrative error or a diplomatic oversight; this is a deliberate lie, designed to shield Israel from accountability as it carries out crimes against humanity. Blinken’s deceit, and by extension the U.S. government’s complicity, is enabling the continued suffering and death of innocent civilians in Gaza.
To be clear, this blockade is a war crime. It violates international law and basic human decency. Yet, rather than condemn these atrocities, Blinken and his counterparts in this administration actively defend them by covering up Israel’s grotesque actions. This is utterly indefensible.
As your constituent, I am furious. I will not sit idly by while U.S. officials lie to the public and fund a regime that has no regard for human life. I demand immediate action to investigate Blinken’s false claims and to stop the flow of U.S. weapons to Israel. If you continue to support military aid to a government that is actively committing crimes against humanity, know this: I will not vote for you. I will not support any candidate who refuses to take a stand against this injustice.
You must publicly denounce these lies and call for an end to the blockade of Gaza, or you will lose my vote, along with the votes of countless others who refuse to support genocide.
In addition, I am demanding that my elected officials:
•Publicly support Israel engaging in diplomacy with Iran and accepting proposed armistice (https://www.newsweek.com/iran-new-president-offers-israel-peace-1958002) (https://www.newsweek.com/iran-new-president-offers-israel-peace-1958002)
•Demand an immediate, permanent ceasefire in Gaza and Lebanon.
•Immediately halt all US aid and weapon sales to Israel. Take immediate action to secure an Arms Embargo on Israel to force them to cease their military aggressions in Gaza and Lebanon.
•Demand that Israel comply with international law and impose consequences for its violations of international law
•Support the resumption of US funding to UNRWA & facilitate opening Gaza's borders
•condemn the acts of mass terrorism conducted by Israel in Lebanon
I look forward to your immediate action and response.
