Dear Burhan,

This. Is. Huge.

Yesterday, almost 800 workers at Amazon and Google joined forces to demand their employers pull out of Project Nimbus – a $1.2 billion contract to provide cloud services for the Israeli military and government – and cut all ties with the Israeli military. 

The courageous workers at every level of Amazon and Google are making it very clear that technology should be used to bring people together, not enable apartheid and violence.

Project Nimbus is designed to make the Israeli military that carries out atrocities in Gaza — and the government that carries out the daily business of apartheid — more oppressive and deadly for Palestinians.

They deserve our support. Click here to send an email to Amazon and Google execs & let them know that there's still time to do the right thing: Cut Project Nimbus, and stop doing business with Israel's apartheid government.

Batool Syed, a lead organizer of the campaign and employee at Amazon, told AMP today, "We know that this contract further enables Israel's oppression of Palestinians. We're concerned, we're outraged, and we will no longer be complicit as our companies continue this pattern of militarization that follows working with ICE, the US military, and policing agencies. We are urging Amazon and Google to respect human rights and dignity by dropping Project Nimbus and committing to ethical business practices."

Let's declare together: #NoTechForApartheid.

 

Thank you for everything you do to further justice.

In solidarity,

Taher Herzallah

Water softeners are specifically designed to address these issues by removing hardness minerals from your water supply. Do I Need a Water Softener for My Well Water?
