Two years after "Operation Cast Lead"--Israel’s horrific 22-day all-out assault of the besieged Palestinian Gaza Strip--which killed approximately 1,400 Palestinians, most of whom were civilians, Israel continues to collectively punish 1.5 million residents of the Gaza Strip through an illegal blockade, and to avoid accountability for its actions.

The US Campaign to End the Israeli Occupation will collect 22,000 signatures in the next 22 days, on the petition at the link above. This petition calls upon the Obama Administration to:

  1. Demand that Israel end its illegal siege of the Gaza Strip, and
  2. 2Stop blocking the international community from holding Israel accountable for its actions.


Help us reach that goal by signing this petition. After doing so, you can help us spread the word about this petition by alerting your friends. Thanks for taking action!
