To Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the Government of Israel:
Our hearts are shattered. Civilians and soldiers, babies, elderly women and men, young people who should have lives and futures ahead of them, have been brutally taken by Hamas terrorists. We, the global Jewish community, stand beside their loved ones, sick with fear.
As leaders of the Diaspora Jewish community, we join with our Israeli family and friends to urge you to bring the hostages home from Gaza with the utmost haste and concern for their safety and survival. Even if the price is high, each soul is infinitely valuable.
“אין לך מצוה רבה כפדיון שבויים״
“There is no commandment greater than redeeming captives”.
Now is the time to act.
Every life is precious and every moment counts.
