Dear Mr. President,

As you know, we are currently giving Israel up to $500 per year for every man, woman and baby living in that country. Israel is using these funds to purchase high-tech military equipment and it is now using that equipment to mass-slaughter the good people of Lebanon. This is repugnant and unacceptable. We, as a country and as a nation should not be associated with this slaughter.

As we all know, the American-made weapons are given to Israel so that Israel can defend itself, not to blow up Red Cross ambulances, UN posts, high-rise apartment buildings, power plants and to indiscriminately massacre people. They can blame Hizballah for this until they get themselves blue in the face but the fact is that killing hundreds or thousands of people and destroying a country following an unfortunate border incident is a crime several orders of magnitude greater than what allegedly triggered this response. And, there is no way to establish that Israel’s version of events is the complete truth – let’s remember that Hitler too managed to organize an incident where Poland appeared to have attacked Germany, thus giving him a pretext to rape Poland.

Let's not support more murder and let us separate ourselves from this decades-old conflict. Rushing bombs to Israel and Band-Aids to Lebanon already lost us millions of friends in Lebanon and the rest of the world. Let's not lose more. We are the United States and we should advance our interests not Israel’s.

Please stop the aid to Israel today. And, think about it for a moment: there would not have been a 9/11, no Iraq invasion, no thousands of dead Americans in Iraq, no hundreds of billions wasted there if we were not involved in the Middle East on the side of one party.

Thank you for your attention and please continue to work for the people of this country, not for the dual-loyalty AIPAC. Israel is NOT a US state, nor is it our ally. Israel never fought with us and all Israel does is take our aid, occasionally sell our technologies to interested third parties and helping us make more enemies in the world.

Thank you for your attention.
