Jerusalem, May 13, 2021 – We join Israeli leaders across the political spectrum in strongly condemning the outrageous attacks being carried out by Arab and Jewish extremists in Israeli cities. As Hamas and Islamic Jihad missiles rain down on Israelis of all backgrounds, we stand with the vast majority of the Israeli public against hatred, mob violence, and terrorism. Israel at its best is a beacon of coexistence, unparalleled in the region. We hope these grave events give way to peace as soon as possible, for all people in the region.
