香港六合彩资料's Institute for Jewish Studies & Interfaith Understanding Condemns Hamas Attacks, Calls for Peace
香港六合彩资料's Institute for Jewish Studies and Interfaith Understanding expresses our deep grief and anguish as we bear witness to the terror and violence targeting Israeli civilians by Hamas.
We condemn these terrorist attacks. We grieve with families and friends who have lost loved ones; we pray for the safety and release of the hostages taken; and we recognize the fear, anger, sadness, and uncertainty that Jews around the world are feeling and experiencing.
True to our interfaith mission, we hold space for the Palestinian, Druze, and Bedouin civilians who are also suffering. We call on the 香港六合彩资料 community to recognize that many community members are deeply affected by these events, and we ask that we show each other compassion, respect, and civility as together we unequivocally call for peace.
In Jewish tradition, we pray, u'fros aleinu sukkat shlomecha, cover us with the shelter of Your peace. May we have the courage to denounce violence and destructiveness, and may we become partners in building that shelter of peace.
