Rev. Paul Brandeis Raushenbush, president and CEO of Interfaith Alliance, released the following statement in response to the Manchester synagogue attack:
“We mourn the tragic loss of life in today’s horrific antisemitic attack in Manchester. We condemn this disgusting act of hate and are praying for the friends and families of the victims, the survivors, and all who are living in greater fear because of what happened. The attack on Judaism’s most holy day is a terrible and tragic reminder that antisemitism is a global crisis.
People of all faiths and traditions should be able to worship and pray without fear. We must all come together to end the scourge of hate and build a more tolerant and peaceful world.”
