📚 Learn and engage with critical perspectives on militarization
Take Action
🛑 STOP ESCALATION IN IRAN AND LEBANON
Violence is intensifying across the region. Congress must act to push for a ceasefire and prevent further war.
👉 Act now: Stop Israel’s U.S.-backed assault on Lebanon
News that the U.S., Israeli, and Iranian governments have approved a two-week ceasefire is heartening but the chance that violence resumes is horribly high. Congress must pass a war powers resolution to ensure hostilities end.
👉 Tell Congress: Extend the ceasefire, end the war
⚖️ CONDEMN ISRAEL'S RACIST DEATH PENALTY LAW
Join the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) in calling on Congress to condemn a new racist Israeli law that would impose the death penalty exclusively on Palestinians, oppose any new U.S.-taxpayer funding for Israeli acts of genocide, an apartheid regime tied to an Israeli supremacist ideology, illegal land theft, and regional war.
👉 Send a message to Congress
🗞️ SUPPORT ACCOUNTABILITY AND TRUTH IN MEDIA
NBC News was the only mainstream media outlet with the integrity to report on the UN's recent demand for Israel to release Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya after reports of severe torture.
👉 Thank NBC News for reporting the truth
