Visiting U.S. Senators to Israel: "You Are Not Alone"
(Times of Israel) Lazar Berman - Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, visiting Israel with a bipartisan group of senators, said Sunday in Tel Aviv: "You are not alone. The United States stands beside you as an unrelenting partner." The group was forced to run to shelters twice because of Hamas rocket fire. Schumer said Hamas herding kibbutz members into a room and shooting them all reminds him of the fate of his great-grandmother in the Holocaust, who was machine-gunned along with dozens of Jews from her Ukrainian town. "If we don't prevent the threat from Hamas from occurring, it will happen again," he said. "We cannot let this evil continue to foul the earth."
