Petition is addressed to: UNC-Charlotte Administration
On March 25th, UNCC Students Supporting Israel are hosting two active-duty IDF soldiers on UNC-Charlotte's main campus. These soldiers, who were active-duty during the Palestinian genocide, will be giving a lecture about their "hope for Zionism- in Israel and on campus." Community members, students, and staff demand that UNCC administration say NO to platforming genociders and war criminals!
Reason
The International Court of Justice, alongside the United Nations, have both declared what is happening in Palestine- Israel’s ruthless destruction of Palestinian land, massacres of civilians, displacement of its Indigenous inhabitants, prevention of basic humanitarian aid’s entry into the region, occupying Palestinian land and towns for the building of Israeli settlements, and the recently charged acts of mass sexual, gender, and reproductive violence- to be a genocide.
We, the undersigned organizations, students, staff, faculty, and community members demand that UNC-Charlotte administration recognize the UNCC Students Supporting Israel's direct violation of UNC-Charlotte's neutrality policy by inciting physical and emotional distress within the student body through their hosting of active-duty IDF soldiers on March 25th.

Why people sign
Because Israel represents war crimes and genocide. Not only does it say that UNCC is okay with the war crimes being committed, but it also says that UNCC will do NOTHING to protect its Palestinian and other Muslim students. The administration simply will not listen.
Hosting members of a group that are considered war criminals across the world cannot be conducive to a productive conversation that upholds the standards this university claims to have.
This petition is important to me because it is a shame to see 2 people who have directly had a hand in the most publicized genocide of all-time, welcomed onto campuses around the United States.

The genocide in Palestine is terrifying and horrible for all Palestinians living there, of all religions and backgrounds their livelihoods are being destroyed. It's disgusting that my school is supporting both war criminals and offenders of Palestinian lives.
