UN Security Council overwhelmingly calls for immediate Gaza ceasefire

from the United Nation's website:

The United Nations Security Council tonight overwhelmingly called for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza leading to a full Israeli withdrawal, the unimpeded provision throughout Gaza of food, fuel and medical treatment, and intensified international arrangements to prevent arms and ammunition smuggling.

If you live in the U.S., please consider contacting your representatives in DC and ask them to ensure this UN security council resolution is implemented. The best way is to talking your representatives' offices by calling (202)225-3121 (or 1-800-828-0498) for House switchboard operator, and the second best is to email them.

If you live in other countries, please consider calling your governmental officials as well.


UPDATE:

Miss Kate, our good friend in FCNL, sent me this comment:

"actually the best way to email them is through the website of the Friends Committee on National Legislation (Quaker peace lobby in DC): http://capwiz.com/fconl/issues/alert/?alertid=12397391

you can use FCNL's language or write your own..but that way, after you put in your zip code (if you are a US voter) it automatically goes to both of your senators and reps and W. and the link is fixed so you can spread the word. and at that link we'll keep it updated according to congressional action."

Thank you:)
