They are already cynically exploiting Jewish fear and heartbreak to massacre Palestinians, rip families apart, and seize dictatorial power, which violates human rights and makes no one safer – not Jews, not anyone.

The very same commitment to life, shared safety, and collective freedom that motivates our stance against the Israeli government’s policies of occupation, apartheid, mass starvation, and genocide in Gaza also moves us to condemn in no uncertain terms this terrible act of violence.

Win Without War condemns murders of Israeli embassy staff  

Washington – Win Without War Executive Director, Sara Haghdoosti, released the following statement on the murders of two Israeli embassy staff members:

“We unequivocally condemn the murders of Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Milgrim, and our hearts go out to their family and loved ones. 

“This kind of violence is horrific, inexcusable, and unjust. It does nothing to ease the plight of Palestinians in Gaza, and betrays the millions of people across the country and the world who seek peace and justice for Israelis and Palestinians alike. We mourn the loss of Yaron and Sarah, and continue to work for a world where every person can live with dignity and thrive without the threat of violence.”
