I strongly urge that Senator Cornyn refuse to approve any more weapons for Israel until Israel at least minimally complies with international law, stops the Genocide of Palestinians in Gaza, and ends the longstanding sea blockade of Gaza.
To be in full compliance, Israel needs with withdraw all security forces, settlers and settlements from the West Bank, Gaza, and the Golan Heights, and implement a full right of return for all Palestinian refugees.
It would be better yet if Israel removed all religious and ethnic discriminatory practices. THEN it would make sense for there to be one state from the river to the sea, which Israel currently controls anyway. Most Palestinians are calling for just that, but Israelis refuse to consider. They believe they must have their discriminatory "Jewish" state (which only treats supporters of Israel as Jews). That is wrong, especially in the Holy Lands for half the world's population.
While Israel continues to hold Palestinians under occupation and siege, Palestinians have a right to resist by force of arms.
We should not be supporting Israel's war crimes. We are on the wrong side of history here.
Israel is engaged in genocide. The US must not support it.
