Ahead of Wednesday’s emergency meeting of the United Nations Security Council on the latest terror attacks on Israel from Gaza, Ambassador Danny Danon called on the Council to officially designate Hamas as a terrorist organization.
“The fact that the Security Council is finally meeting to discuss the attacks by Hamas on the citizens of Israel is a positive development, but heinous acts of terror must be met with actions, not just words,” said Ambassador Danon. “I call on the Security Council to officially designate Hamas a terrorist organization. It is high time that the international community combat the Palestinian masterminds of terror with the same tools and same vigor they use against Al-Qaeda and ISIS."
