SUMMARY:Seattle: Shut It Down for Palestine
DESCRIPTION:🚨SEATTLE: SHUT IT DOWN FOR PALESTINE THIS SATURDAY 1/20 🇵🇸 \nAs part of the international day of action to #shutitdown4palestine\, we will be demonstrating at the U-District light rail station to denounce the links between the publicly-funded Sound Transit and multinational conglomerate\, Siemens\, who works to enhance Israeli occupation and colonisation in Palestine. \nOver $118\,000\,000 of our state taxes already directly fund the Israeli military\, but unfortunately\, our taxes and economy are even more intertwined with Zionist occupation and U.S. imperialism. In 2016/2017\, Sound Transit entered into a $714\,718\,000 contract with Siemens to acquire 152 light rail vehicles. This is despite the fact that another company can produce the same vehicles and is not actively breaking international law by supporting Israeli occupation and colonialism. \nRight now\, the Sound Transit board is in the process of acquiring 10 more light rail vehicles from Siemens at the cost of over $96 million dollars\, paid for by our tax dollars! \n* We demand an end to the Sound Transit contracts with Siemens!\n* Sound Transit\, cut ties with genocide!\n* End all U.S. aid to Israel!\n* Immediate ceasefire on Gaza!\n* End the Siege on Gaza!\n* Release all Palestinian prisoners!\n* End the occupation!
