No US tax dollars to support Israel’s military occupation of Palestinian territory!

• On September 15–the International Day of Democracy and and five days prior to the Palestinian bid for UN membership–we will take to the streets and demand that the United States government support true democracy in all of the Middle East, not just the places that are near and dear to special interest groups.
• As American citizens who believe in democracy, we strongly object to the United States’ interference with the Palestinian bid.
• We believe that the 30 billion in US tax dollars earmarked for Israel is an obstacle to Palestinian self-determination and human rights. We call for an end to this destructive financial aid and an end to the illegal Israeli occupation of Palestinian territory. 
• Like the US-funded occupation, blocking the UN vote denies the Palestinian attempt to determine “their own political, economic, social, and cultural systems and their full participation in all aspects of their lives”–the UN’s definition of democracy.
• Volunteers Needed!
