NO MORE GENOCIDE IN OUR NAMES!
NO MORE GENOCIDE IN OUR NAMES!
INTERNATIONAL CALL TO PARTICIPATE IN GLOBAL ACTIONS & SUPPORT!
April 7th WORLDWIDE! SHUT DOWN THE ISRAELI EMBASSIES, AND PORTS
WHERE WEAPONS ARE BEING SHIPPED FROM!
DEMAND THAT THE UNITED NATIONS IMMEDIATELY ENFORCE ARTICLE 42 OF THE UN CHARTER!
If an emergency meeting has not been called, and Article 42 of the UN Charter is not already being implemented, and UN Peacekeepers are not ALREADY on the ground in Gaza and the Occupied Territories to enforce protection of the Palestinian people of all religions and ethnicities, against the current Israeli GENOCIDE, then the UN is a sham !
Article 42 United Nations Charter “Should the Security Council consider that measures provided for in Article 42would be inadequate or have proved to be inadequate, it may take such action by air, sea, or land forces as may be necessary to maintain or restore international peace and security. Such action may include demonstrations, blockade, and other operations by air, sea, or land forces of Members of the United Nations”
DEMAND THAT THE UN PEACEKEEPERS BE DEPLOYED TO BOTH GAZA AND THE OCCUPIED TERRITORIES
BY April 10th, 2025!
AN IMMEDIATE AND TOTAL CEASEFIRE BY ISRAEL!
THE IMMEDIATE IMPLEMENTATION OF PHASE 2 OF THE CEASEFIRE AGREEMENT!
THE IMMEDIATE OPENING AND ACCESSIBILITY OF ALL POINTS OF ENTRY FOR HUMANITARIAN AID!
ALL ISRAELI MILITARY OUT OF THE OCCUPIED TERRITORIES!
IF BY APRIL 10TH, 2025 THE UN GENERAL ASSEMBLY HAS NOT MET, AND HAS NOT AGREED TO,
AND BEGUN THE DEPLOYMENT OF UN TROOPS TO GAZA AND THE OCCUPIED TERRITORIES;
FOR EVERY DAY IT IS NOT DONE. THE WORLD WILL..READ BELOW!
ORGANIZED LABOR - SHUTDOWN THE PORTS
USED TO SHIP WEAPONS KILLING INNOCENT PEOPLE IN PALESTINE!
STUDENTS - LEAVE YOUR UNIVERSITIES
AND FIND THE NEAREST ISRAELI EMBASSY OR CONSULATE, OR PORT
WHERE WEAPONS ARE SHIPPED OUT OF; & SHUT IT DOWN!
ALL OTHERS - JOIN THE STUDENTS & LABOR IN YOUR AREA!
DEMAND THAT THE UNITED NATIONS SEND IN UN PEACEKEEPERS BY April 10TH
TO BOTH GAZA AND THE OCCUPIED TERRITORIES
TO STOP THE GENOCIDE IN GAZA AND THE ATTACKS IN THE OCCUPIED TERRITORIES IMMEDIATELY!
To the UN we say “Do the right thing and the world will support your actions,”……
SEND UN PEACEKEEPERS INTO PALESTINE BY APRIL 10TH!
STOP THE GENOCIDE NOW!!
If UN peacekeepers are not on the ground in Palestine by then, the UN has shown its collusion with genocide, & WE will CONTINUE OUR ACTIONS AT THE PORTS AND EMBASSIES until the UN Troops are enforcing Article 42!
If any country, as a member of the Security Council, votes against Article 42, (Security Council votes must be unanimous to pass), it will become incumbent that all other participating countries in the General Assembly demand an immediate vote by General Assembly members on Article 42 and abide by a majority decision of that vote.
IF A “NO” VOTE BY ONE COUNTRY ON THE SECURITY COUNCIL WILL ALLOW THE GENOCIDE OF THE TENS OF THOUSANDS OF PALESTINIANS TO CONTINUE .....THEN THOSE RULES MUST BE CHANGE NOW!!!
We call on all members of civil society, globally, to immediately implement all methods of non-violent civil disobedience through protest, economic boycott, and whatever additional action they deem necessary, to have UN troops on the ground Immediately to protect the Palestinian people from the genocide being perpetrated on them by the Israeli Occupation Forces under the direction of the current Israeli government.
To all governments - we give you notice.
If you have supported and voted for resolutions in the UN, supporting the end of genocide in Gaza,
and your vote to stop the genocide has been ignored, NOW is the chance for you to be heard!!!
SUPPORT your students & workers as they shut down the embassies and the ports! Do NOT criminalize them or send in the police or army to stop and disperse their protests!
DO support and protect those protesting, because as you know up until this point,
that your votes in the UN have done NOTHING to stop the genocide!
Show the world and show your people that you stand behind your words!
UN TROOPS ON THE GROUND BY April 10th, OR WE SHUT IT DOWN!
Dear friends,
We are sending you this “Call To Action”, in the hopes that you can get it out to all of those in your union or organization, and other groups that you work with, nationally and internationally.
First let me introduce ourselves. We are a small group of workers, Trade Unionists, some still working and some retired, students, Clergy, and activists, who have come together out of both desire and desperation of the current conditions, to move the struggles to a new level. For 18 months we have taken to the streets, campuses, written and protested where necessary, and yet the Genocide has only gotten worse against the people of Palestine!
As we march, and chant, and write, and plead, Israel continues to intensify their genocide in Gaza and the Occupied Territories. And as we watch resolution after resolution in the United Nations vetoed by the United States, we see daily, more and more of our Palestinian brothers and sisters slaughtered.
There is an old saying, “Insanity is doing the same things over and over, getting the same results, and doing it again and expecting something different.” With this Call we are demanding something extraordinarily different; demanding that the representatives in the General Assembly of the United Nations override “protocol”, and demand a majority vote from the General Assembly to enact Article 42 of the UN Charter and immediately send in UN troops to stop the genocide regardless of the US veto.
We have no illusions about the complexity of global dynamics and recognize that many governments who support the Cease-fire resolutions, support it in words only, knowing that the U.S. will use their position in the Security Council to veto any meaningful resolution to stop the genocide.
What we are calling for is a strategy to materially STOP business as usual globally, shutting down the Israeli embassies and consulates in as many countries as possible; not for one day, but until the UN sends in troops to stop the genocide. The second aspect is to stop shipments of weapons from reaching Israel, by shutting down the Ports globally, and NOT just ports that ship weapons from. We are hoping that many Docker Unions will support this movement, however non-violent direct action in the form of picketing the docks, also gives the Dockers the ability to shelter repercussions by “refusing to cross a picket line”
If the Israeli embassies and consulates are “shut down for business”, and goods are not flowing through the ports, this is a direct peril to global capitalism and the military industrial complex on the one hand, and a frightening show of global solidarity on the other hand. This the potential lever for the governments around the world to be forced to be held accountable to DO the right thing, NOT just act angry, speak harshly, and allow the genocide to continue.
They now will be forced to make a choice and now must choose a side. Either of dismantling the power of the Security Council, where their decisions will have real world consequences for the people of Palestine, or complacency with the genocide. They simply can no longer talk of saving Palestine from ethnic cleansing and extermination, while they knowingly allow the Security Council, to docilly accept the US veto, thus giving Israel the green light to continue their genocide. This can no longer be!!
This is not at all taking away the condemnation for the US being the PRIMARY roadblock in sending weapons supporting the genocide, but a strategy of forcing the leaders of the other countries to not be allowed to support Palestine “ in words only”, knowing that their words of support are hollow, but can be said loudly and boldly because they know any resolution of any serious consequence will NEVER happen as long as the US has veto power in the Security Council.
Our goal is to create the material conditions by non-violently stopping “business as usual” at as many Israeli Embassies and Consulates as possible, while simultaneously shutting down as many ports globally as possible. But this is NOT just another protest; this two-pronged strategy has only ONE goal. To force all of the countries to take an unprecedented stand in overriding the US veto in the Security Council; on the one hand, to force the countries in the General Assembly who are feigning support for a Cease- fire knowing it will never happen because of the US veto, to stand with those countries demanding a General Assembly override of the Security Council, and on the other hand giving support to those countries who do want the genocide to end , and to create the material conditions to override the Security Council, and demand a General Assembly binding vote to send in the UN peacekeepers IMMEDIATELY.
We recognize that these actions will not happen unilaterally across the global spectrum, but we do realize that often “a single spark can start a prairie fire”! If a few countries are successful in shutting down the Israeli Embassies and Consulates, they may be unsuccessful in closing down the ports, or otherwise be a landlocked country. On the other hand, if in a country or two, dockers are successful in closing the ports in solidarity with other workers and students, then perhaps those are the “sparks” needed to spread the “prairie fire”. Again, both prongs MUST be done with the clear understanding of having their government join in initiating, or at the least supporting, the resolution by the General Assembly to override the Security Council if need be. And it will need to be!
This whole proposal may sound farfetched, but I ask you, what are the other alternatives?
There is a letter to the UN General Assembly members demanding that UN troops be on the ground both in the Occupied Territories AND Gaza by a specific date, April 10th. If they are not; then the one-day action on April 7th will become ongoing global actions, until the UN troops ARE in Palestine confronting and stopping the Israeli military from continuing the genocide.
The timeline on this is VERY short, some say impossible, but with Netanyahu and his right-wing Cabinet appearing to have begun their “final solution” for the elimination of Palestine, and the death or displacement of all Palestinians, we objectively have no choice.
See you on April 7th! NO MORE GENOCIDE IN OUR NAME!
Remember " A single spark can start a prairie fire" Be that spark!
