Brooklyn Brandeis Society condemns Hamas attacks on Israel, urges support
In light of last week’s shocking attack on Israeli citizens by Hamas, the Brooklyn Brandeis Society, a group primarily composed of lawyers and judges, issued a strongly-worded statement condemning the terrorist group’s actions and calling for urgent community support for Israel.
The statement described the attacks as “heinous acts” and “indefensible crimes against humanity,” committed by terrorists who “mercilessly targeted civilians of all ages.”
“The appalling accounts of the unprovoked attacks in Israel, and the horrific massacres, rapes, and kidnappings of Israelis, Americans and others, have left us stunned,” the statement read. “These heinous acts, carried out by terrorists crossing into a sovereign country and mercilessly targeting civilians of all ages, constitute violations of international law and are indefensible crimes against humanity.
