Israeli envoy to UN: ‘We must make sure what happened in Pittsburgh never happens again’

Israel’s ambassador to the United Nations issues a statement on the anniversary of the shooting attack at Pittsburgh’s Tree of Life synagogue that left 11 dead.

“We are one year removed from the worst anti-Semitic attack in the history of the United States. The Jewish people face the rising tide of this ancient bigotry around the world; Jews in Israel, Europe, the US and elsewhere are experiencing renewed attacks and instances of anti-Semitism,” Danny Danon says.

Danon calls on the world to “give no quarter to this bigotry” and says it must be confronted wherever it pops up.

“We must make sure what happened in Pittsburgh never happens again.”
