Condolences on Attack against Rabbinical StudentsStatement by Secretary Condoleezza RiceWashington, DC March 6, 2008 I spoke with Foreign Minister Livni to express my condolences to the people of Israel and the families of the victims of the attack tonight against rabbinical students at the Mercaz Harav Yeshiva in Jerusalem. We hold all citizens of Israel in our thoughts and prayers in this tragic hour. We wish a full and rapid recovery to all those injured.
The United States condemns tonight's act of terror and depravity. This barbarous act has no place among civilized peoples and shocks the conscience of all peace loving nations. There is no cause that could ever justify this action. 2008/162 Released on March 6, 2008 |
