She further said, “When I met John and Rachel earlier this year, I told them that they are not alone. Now his parents are mourning this terrible loss. Americans and people around the world will pray for John, Rachel and their family and send them love.”
US VP said: Hamas’ evil is horrifying
Kamala Harris said, “Hamas is an evil terrorist organization. With these killings, Hamas has the blood of more American people on its hands. I always strongly condemn Hamas’s cruelty and the whole world also strongly condemns it. From the massacre of 1,200 people to sexual violence, hostage taking and these murders, Hamas’s wickedness is clear and horrific. The threat Hamas poses to the people of Israel and American citizens in Israel must be eliminated and Hamas cannot control Gaza. The Palestinian people have also suffered under Hamas’ rule for nearly two decades.”
America will work to free the hostages
The US Vice President said that as VP, he has no higher priority than the safety of American citizens, wherever they are in the world. President Joe Biden and he will never waver from their commitment to freeing Americans and all those held hostage in Gaza.
