Reasons to Stop Funding Israeli Occupation (Adobe PDF: 377 KB, 2-sided, 8.5x11 inches) United States diplomats like to say that when it comes to the conflict between Israel and Palestinians the US plays the role of “an honest broker.” But the US’ massive financial and military support for Israel means that, in fact, the US is taking sides. Israel is the largest recipient of US foreign aid, receiving more than $3 billion annually—or about $8 million every day. If a level diplomatic playing field is to be created, the US’ unfair and biased support of Israel must end. Until the US stops lending its weight to Israel, a truly just peace will remain elusive.

Israel's Apartheid Wall (Adobe PDF: 377 KB, 2-sided, 8.5x11 inches) "Hanna Nasser, mayor of Bethlehem, was born in a large stone house on Bethlehem’s main road in 1936. The home and its adjacent acre of olive groves have been in Nasser’s family since 1910. Now, though, the family homestead will be separated from the rest of Bethlehem by Israel’s new wall. Nasser will now have to obtain a permit to make the short trip between his house across town and the old family home. And this is the city in which he was born and raised and that he now governs!"

Dual Occupations! Wrong in Iraq, Wrong in Palestine (Adobe PDF: 102 KB, 2-sided, 2 pages, 8.5x11 inches) IF IT IS WRONG IN PALESTINE, WHY IS THE US DOING IT IN IRAQ? Israel occupied the Palestinian West Bank, Gaza and East Jerusalem in 1967. The United States occupied Iraq in 2003. Under the Fourth Geneva Convention, both the Palestinian and Iraqi peoples are “protected” populations. Yet for 37 years, Israel has engaged in practices that are grave breaches of international law. These include extra-judicial assassinations, torture, extended curfews and other forms of collective punishment, house demolitions and the destruction of agricultural land and civilian property, expulsions, and illegal imprisonment. Since November 2003 the US has imported into Iraq many of the repressive measures that have failed to bring “security” to Israel and have turned the West Bank and Gaza Strip into a tinderbox. Increasingly, the two occupations are coming to resemble each other, as the occupiers actively collaborate to put down indigenous resistance.

Demanding the End to Caterpillar Bulldozer Sales to Israel (Adobe PDF: 2-sided, 2 pages, 8.5x11 inches) The Israeli government routinely uses bulldozers in its military activities and employs them to alter the facts on the ground in the occupied Palestinian territories. The result of these operations has been the destruction of vital Palestinian infrastructure, and the death of civilians. These actions are in blatant violation of the Fourth Geneva Convention and other international laws.
