The Biden administration is pressing Israel to restore telecommunications access to Gaza amid a massive blackout that has stretched a record six days and left millions of Palestinians without power or internet.
Administration officials fear the blackout will make it difficult for anyone to know what is happening between Hamas and the Israeli military as the war in Gaza continues, potentially worsening an already dire humanitarian situation. The U.S. has “been in touch with the government of Israel over this blackout and have urged them to turn telecoms back on,” said a U.S. official at the White House, speaking anonymously due to the sensitivity of the discussions.
Boycott Israeli goods. Boycott US companies that invest in Israel. Until Israel is a pariah state it will have no incentive to change.

Or just boycott the brands suggested by BDS which makes it more impactful
I find that many of those brands are impossible to avoid. But I’ve always done my casual best. But holy shit it’s crazy how hard it is to avoid certain things google and Amazon completely. They’re services are imbedded into everything. Probably this websites services are paying google or Amazon in some fashion.
I just pick a few tbh. Mainly fast food and snacks which are bad for you anyway
Picking a few especially those recommended by BDS makes it more impactful
I’ve been boycotting Israel my whole life
