  • Baltimore Jewish Council Offers Sympathies to Turkish Americans, People of Turkey

    Baltimore Jewish Council Statement on Ataturk Airport Attack

    June 29, 2016

    The Baltimore Jewish Council (BJC) is saddened to learn of the atrocious attack that took place at Istanbul’s Ataturk Airport yesterday. This suicide attack took the lives of over 40 people and injured many more.

    Our communities were celebrating just days ago, after the announcement of normalized relations between Turkey and Israel, two democratic nations with the ability to bring much needed stability to the Middle East region. This act of senseless violence only strengthens our drive to work together as two nations seeking peace in a region rife with turmoil.

    Rep. Steve Cohen (D-TN/9th) - Co-Chair
    Rep. Virginia Foxx (R-NC/5th) - Co-Chair

    Statement of Condolences following the Terrorist Attack in Istanbul, Turkey

    On behalf of the Caucus on U.S.-Turkey Relations and Turkish Americans, and as friends of the people of Turkey, we extend our heartfelt condolences in the wake of yesterday’s attacks at Istanbul Ataturk Airport. This heartbreaking tragedy reiterates the reality that terrorism makes no distinctions between nationalities or religions, as this horrific tragedy took place during the holy month of Ramadan, a sacred time of reflection and prayer for the Muslim faith. Our thoughts and prayers are with the families of the 41 who died and the more than 200 who were injured during yesterday’s attacks. We stand together with Turkey, a longstanding friend and ally of the United States, during this time of national mourning.
