Flores, Dora <br />From: natalie serhan < > <br />Sent: Tuesday, March 5, 2024 6:35 PM <br />To: eComment <br />Subject: March 5 agenda item 18 <br />Hello my name is Nathalie Serhan Z, and I urge the council to support Item 18, the Ceasefire Resolution. <br />This is a local issue. In 1985, Alex Odeh was assassinated here in Santa Ana. Two of his killers fled to Israel and have been <br />living there since. One of them, Andy Green, or Baruch Ben Yosef, as he's known in Israel, is now on another killing <br />spree. Baruch Ben Yosef is leading the protests in Israel to block humanitarian aid to Gaza, while Palestinian children like <br />Yazan Kafarneh and hundreds like him literally starve to death. Children in Gaza who survive the bombing can't survive <br />the Israeli -imposed famine. <br />By passing this resolution, as presented by the community, the City of Santa Ana joins a growing list of US cities in doing <br />their small part to stop this genocide that's funded by our tax dollars. The City of Santa Ana should honor the memory of <br />its slain community leader by voting yes on the ceasefire resolution. It's way past due. <br />Thank you, <br />Nathalie SZ <br />19 <br />
