“The flames of war being fanned by this Israeli government only continue to wreak havoc and bring needless suffering; if we allow this election to be bought & Bush’s opponent to take office, he will do nothing to stop the violence.”

In 2020, we defeated a 52-year political dynasty.
In 2022, St. Louis sent a clear message that we won’t return to the status quo.
Today, I’m excited to officially be back on the ballot for re-election to continue delivering for St. Louis!

We thank @RepCori for her moral leadership and courage. Progressive Jews of St. Louis join our congresswoman in supporting South Africa’s case at the International Court of Justice charging Israel with genocide against the Palestinian people.
Your friendly reminder that the ADL is not your ally. Years ago hundreds of organizations, including ProJoSTL, signed a letter detailing ADL’s decades long history of surveilling & repressing social justice movements and calling on groups to #DropTheADL. https://t.co/tSVbP6wmR8
Here’s a story inspired by true events:
Imagine ur 11, 13, 14 year old kid got riled up after seeing his friend get shot and threw a stone at an armoured vehicle (it’s actually bulletproof).
Your stupid kid, rightfully hurt and angry as their friend was shot nearby by the military invading town. Your young and heartful kid, that in any normal society would maybe get a reprimand for putting himself in visible danger to a military of psychopaths.
Instead, Later that night a full battalion of the Israeli army is bombing your front door open, taking your kid, denying you access to speak with them, and denying your child a lawyer. Blindfold them. Deny them food. Put them in rooms of freezing temperature (trust that I know this because I’ve experienced these rooms at 20 and it was unbearable within hours) and holding them there for days.
Israel’s punishment for kids that throw stones is to shove them in military prison where they abuse them. The legal sentence is up to ten YEARS in the torture chambers (literally they use tactics that amount to war crimes).
At least 500-700 Palestinian children are kidnapped by Israel under military decree. Thousands are threatened with their lives and their family’s lives to provide information to Israeli officers who use it for intelligence.
All of this, because your kid. Your stupid, young, adolescent, hotheaded, and beautiful kid, threw a fuc*ing stone at the psychopath army that shot his friend nearby.
