White House Interns Demand Biden's Action on Gaza Ceasefire

Over 40 White House interns have signed an anonymous letter criticizing President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris for their handling of the Israel-Hamas war. The interns are urging the administration to work towards a permanent ceasefire in Gaza, the release of all hostages, and an end to "Israeli apartheid" in the region. They express dissatisfaction with both the Israeli and American governments' handling of the conflict and call on the administration to change course. The interns believe that anything other than a complete halt to Israel's actions in Gaza will not suffice.

Progressive Jewish Groups Accuse Israel of Apartheid Amidst Hamas Violence

Two progressive Jewish organizations, If Not Now and Jewish Voice for Peace Action, have blamed Israeli "apartheid" for the ongoing violence between Israel and Hamas. They argue that the Israeli government's perpetuation of a system of apartheid has led to the current situation and call for deescalation and an end to US military aid to Israel. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has declared that his country is "at war" and has cut off supplies to Gaza. Over 2,600 casualties have been reported on both sides of the conflict. The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) has previously rejected the claim that Israel is an "apartheid state."
