A coalition called “No Rugers to Israel” can document over 200 Palestinians killed or injured by Rugers — now including Al Jazeera journalist Shireen Abu Akleh — though it believes the true number to be far higher. “For years we’ve been calling attention to sales of Ruger guns and ammunition to the Israeli military which is a serial human rights violator,” says Stanley Heller.

Ruger is getting unwelcome publicity because its gun was used in Colorado massacre last week. A new campaign calls on the company to stop selling weapons to Israel, which has used them to kill or injure hundreds in Palestine, including the killing of Ali Abu Alia, 15, in December, when he was protesting settlers taking his village lands in the occupied West Bank.
