Dear  colleagues in Israel,

We are shocked by the terrible inhuman attacks against Israel, for which 
there is no justification of any kind. Hamas has deeply violated all 
norms of human coexistence in its terror.

Our thoughts, sympathy and prayers go out to the victims, their families 
and friends. They are also directed to those whose lives are at stake. 
As members of ISREV, a worldwide networked space for common reflection 
on religious and inter-religious education, theology and values, we 
stand in full solidarity with our Israeli colleagues.
