The violence in Gaza, since October 2023, has killed over 40,000 Palestinians. Most of the Gaza Strip has been destroyed - an area just twice the size of Davenport, IA - but with a population of over 2 million. Gaza's people are starving to death, there are no functioning hospitals, and its people can't leave.

The genocide in Gaza is an unspeakable atrocity. Across the country, people have been demanding a permanent ceasefire, and the U.S. government has the ability to pressure Israel to stop the bloodshed by not sending them another bomb. The Quad Cities chapter of the Democratic Socialists of America calls upon Moline City Council to pass a resolution demanding a permanent ceasefire in Gaza and an arms embargo on Israel.
