► As our local representatives send out their excuses for supporting Israel’s war crimes in Gaza, give them some feedback:

- Tell Rep. Doris Matsui <http://matsui.house.gov/>  that Israel has been bombing Gaza with hellfire missiles from F-16s and drones.    <http://sacbds.org/tell-matsui/> Matsui’s 8-15-14 email to constituents mentions only rockets – no missiles. Also tell her that a solution will be forthcoming if the U.S. stops aiding and abetting Israel’s war crimes. Call Matsui: 916-498-5600, fax (916) 444-6117 or click to email <http://matsui.house.gov/> . 

- Tell Rep. Ami Bera <http://bera.house.gov/>   that Israel’s bombing of Gaza is not about Israel “defending its borders” (which it has yet to declare) and that you don’t want your tax dollars used to enable Israel to “maintain their qualitative military advantage” that they are using to inflict collective punishment with disproportionate force on the people of Gaza, against whom Israel has a deadly blockade.  Call Bera: (202) 225-5716; Fax: (202) 226-1298 or click to email <http://bera.house.gov/contact> .
