Jewish Democrats Condemn Attack in Jerusalem

Washington, D.C. - The National Jewish Democratic Council unconditionally condemns the attack on the worshipers in the Har Nof synagogue.  Our hearts are broken for the families of the murder victims and we send our deepest condolences.

The attack, taking place as it did so far from the neighborhood in which the terrorists lived, represents a premeditation that was encouraged by incitement from within their community. Furthermore, to target innocent victims, ones who were doing nothing more than offering prayer in a house of worship, is nothing short of horrific. We call on all people and nations to repudiate these actions and to isolate anyone responsible for encouraging violence against innocent civilians.
