Congressman Turner Statement on Jerusalem Synagogue Attack

Two Palestinians attacked a synagogue in Jerusalem and killed four Israeli worshipers. This act of terror must immediately be condemned by the international community.

As we mourn the death of the three American citizens involved in today's attack, our hearts go out to all the victims and their families as they attempt to recover from today’s senseless act of violence.

We recognize and support Israel's right to defend its territory and its citizens against further attacks by radical elements such as Hamas. The nation of Israel and its people continue to have my full support.
