April 29, 2004
********************************
CFL ALERT: PUT AN END TO ISRAELI WMD’S AND U.S. DOUBLE STANDARDS. WE CANNOT
IGNORE ISRAEL’S NUCLEAR ARSENAL.
TALKING POINTS
* UN nuclear watchdog chief Mohamed ElBaradei will be visiting Israel in July.
ElBaradei has repeatedly called for Israel to dismantle its nuclear arsenal.
Government sources have indicated that they will not allow ElBaradei to visit
the Dimona nuclear reactor. Last November ElBaradei said Israel should sign
the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) and thus open up its atomic sites
to international inspections. ElBaradei has also condemned "this imbalance in
the region [with] Israel sitting on nuclear weapons and everybody else trying
to stick to the Nonproliferation Treaty."
*Contact your representatives and ask that the U.S. sponsor a UN Resolution
that would investigate Israel’s nuclear arsenal. Remind them that we waged war
on Iraq because the Bush administration falsely claimed that Saddam had WMD’s.
Meanwhile, Washington has repeatedly prevented any discussion of Israel’s
nuclear weapons at the UN. These double standards are indicative of the racist
double standards in Washington against Arabs and Muslims. Tell your elected
officials that you support immediate diplomatic and economic sanctions against
Israel for its repeated flouting of international law, U.N. resolutions and
its nuclear proliferation.
*Remind your representatives that they have an obligation to promote and
protect American interests. Waging war against Arab countries while rewarding
Israeli intransigence does not promote our interests in the Middle East and
only works to strengthen the argument that a U.S./Israeli plan to redevelop
the Middle East is being played out.
