SUMMARY:Demonstration to Indict Blinken
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, October 17\, 2024\, 12:00 pm\, The Diana E. Murphy Federal Courthouse\, 300 South 4th Street\, Minneapolis MN\, 55415 \n  \nIndict Antony Blinken!  \nOn May 24\, 2024\, Secretary of State Antony Blinken reported to Congress\, “We do not currently assess that the Israeli government is prohibiting or otherwise restricting the transport of U.S. humanitarian assistance”. This\, in spite of the fact that both the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and the State Department Bureau for Population\, Refugees\, and Migration (PRM) had reached precisely the opposite conclusion in formal written reports. They concluded that Israel was systematically denying and blocking humanitarian food and medical assistance to Gaza in violation of U.S. foreign aid laws. Although both assessments had been submitted to Secretary Blinken in April of 2024\, neither was mentioned in Blinken’s May report to Congress. By concealing the USAID and PRM reports\, Secretary Blinken deceived Congress\, an apparent violation of the Material False Statement law which prohibits falsification or concealment of material facts orally or in writing to the U.S. Congress. \n Join Veterans For Peace to Demand the Indictment of Antony Blinken!  \nWhere: The Diana E. Murphy Federal Courthouse\, 300 South 4th Street\, Minneapolis MN\, 55415.  \nWhen: Thursday\, October 17\, 2024 at noon.  \nHow: By demonstrating in front on the Federal Courthouse\, and hand delivering a formal letter to U.S. Attorney Andrew Luger whose office lies therein\, we will demand that the U.S. Department of Justice impanel a grand jury to investigate criminal violations of federal laws governing the provision of weapons and munitions to Israel as it commits genocide in Palestine. Stop the Deceit! Stop Providing Weapons to Israel! Stop the Genocide! Never Again Means Never Again for Anyone! \n  \nNot able to attend the demonstration? Please call U.S. Attorney Andrew Luger @ 612-664-5600 to demand an investigation into Antony Blinken for deceiving Congress in the furtherance of genocide. Initiated by Veterans For Peace Chapter 27.  \n\n\n	Related
