The American Jewish Congress commends President Donald J. Trump for his strong and unequivocal stance demanding the immediate and unconditional release of hostages held by Hamas, said the New York based organization in its statement post Trump’s warning to Hamas on Wednesday.
The statement further addded that, “His words—‘Release the hostages now, or there will be hell to pay later’—send a clear message that terrorism will not be tolerated and that the United States stands firmly with Israel in its fight against barbarism”.
“We share the President’s resolve: Hamas must release all hostages now. There is no negotiation, no justification, and no delay that can excuse their horrific actions. The Jewish people, Israel, and all freedom-loving nations stand united in ensuring that justice is served”.
“As President Trump stated, ‘A beautiful future awaits, but not if you hold hostages.’ The American Jewish Congress echoes this call—peace and prosperity cannot exist while Hamas continues its reign of terror. The world must demand action, and we are grateful for strong leadership in this moment of crisis. We urge all nations to stand with Israel, support its right to self-defense, and bring every hostage home safely” AJC statement concluded.
