Baby Ahmed was almost two.

The emaciated corpse of a two-year-old boy, who died of severe malnutrition in Gaza due to Israel’s blockade

From Ahmed Al-Najjar, a journalist living in Gaza:

This is baby Ahmed Samir, less than two years old. His emaciated corpse was moved an hour ago to the morgue of Nasser Hospital in Khan Yunis after he succumbed to Israel's starvation.Morning and night, people perish here because the world allows Israel block everything but bombs.

It makes me sick to my stomach that my tax dollars are supporting this state.

It's high time for Democrats to catch up to their own base and allow Israel to become the international pariah it deserves to be. If they are set on starving a population to death, they shouldn't be getting a single dollar from us.

Find out how your rep voted on Bernie’s Block the Bombs act. Let them know how you feel about their vote.

In fact, we should really be sanctioning and isolating them entirely--but at the very least, cutting off the aid is a good start.

Folks, if you have been on the sidelines of this conflict. Now is the time to get active. 

You can help end this horrific, unjust war:

• Reach out to your community about the atrocities Israel is perpetrating in Gaza, that we as Americans enable through our tax dollars.
• Support orgs providing aid on the ground  PCRF  , UNRWA 
• Support political orgs working for a peaceful, sane, and safe Middle East, like MPower , J Street, JVP , Standing Together Israel
