Alcala, Abigail <br />From: <br />Sent: <br />To: <br />Subject: <br />Dear Council Members, <br />Emile Holdings < <br />Monday, December 4, 2023 3:42 PM <br />eComment <br />Vote NO on Ceasefire Resolution <br />I am writing to urge you not to participate in signing the Ceasefire Resolution submitted by Councilmembers <br />Vazquez and Hernandez. <br />Jews around the world are still reeling in the aftermath of the October 7th Hamas massacre in Israel - the single <br />deadliest day for Jews since the Holocaust. Many of us have experienced and/or witnessed acts of antisemitism <br />directly. Adopting a resolution that fails to explicitly condemn Hamas and the wave of antisemitism that <br />followed their atrocities is condoning the acts of October 7th and their aftermath. <br />The resolution faults Israel for a war started by Hamas. The loss of life and suffering is felt by both sides, but as <br />stated ceasefire was broken by Hamas on October 7th and once more last week <br />Zeev Goldreich <br />
