The B’nai B’rith Anti-Defamation Commission has expressed its horror and shock following the terrorist attacks in Paris that have claimed the lives of 129 people. The ADC also conveyed its sincere and deepest condolences to the victims, their families and to the French nation following the senseless and brutal massacres in various venues in Paris. According to reports, ISIS has claimed responsibility for the deadly assaults.

Dr. Dvir Abramovich, Chairman of the ADC, issued the following statement:

“We are deeply shocked and outraged by these barbaric and deadly attacks in Paris which are beyond condemnation. We  express our sincere condolences to the families of those innocent people who lost their lives and wish those who were injured a full and speedy recovery. During this heartbreaking time of grief and mourning, we stand together with the French people and nation as they seek to recover from this traumatic event and bring to justice the perpetrators of these despicable massacres. This tragedy is a reminder that no one is safe  until radical  Islamist terrorism, that knows no bounds and which is afflicting the globe, is defeated.  The international community must prevail in the concerted, sustained fight against violent extremism so as to ensure that the lives of all citizens are protected, and that the shared values of democracy and freedom are secure.

Today, the ADC declares, we are  Je Suis Francais.”
