Thank you to the millions of people worldwide who supported @AJCGlobal’s #ShowUpForShabbat campaign.
Amazing response: Synagogues filled with Jews & non-Jews grieving for the 11 Jews murdered in Pittsburgh & saying NO to hatred.
It’s not over. We need to stay strong & united. pic.twitter.com/u9pJv8tsyp

In Pittsburgh, Jews were targeted.
We’re all Jews.
Now in Egypt, it was Coptic Christians.
We’re all Copts.
In Charleston, it was African Americans in a church.
We’re all African American Christians.
More than ever, we must affirm our common humanity and shared destiny.

What an incredible Shabbat evening at NY’s Temple Israel! Packed sanctuary. Diplomats in solidarity, following Pittsburgh horror, from #Austria, #Bulgaria, #Germany, #Greece. Large delegation from nearby Catholic Church. Just what we hoped for when AJC launched #ShowUpForShabbat

The anti-Semite who killed 11 Jews in Pittsburgh — and who’s being treated for his wounds by a Jewish doctor! — needs to know:
He won’t scare us.
He won’t shake our faith.
He won’t divide us as Americans.
Let’s all go to a synagogue tonight or tomorrow a.m. #ShowUpForShabbat pic.twitter.com/03GdJTeEa2

My dear friend, Amb. Sugiyama — Please accept our heartfelt thanks for such a meaningful gesture by the @JapanEmbDC. To have the support of #Japan following the anti-Semitic tragedy in Pittsburgh means so much to us — and reflects our longstanding partnership. - David. @AJC_Asia

Touched to get a letter from #Ukraine 🇺🇦 Foreign Minister @PavloKlimkin following #Pittsburgh tragedy. He wrote: “We are deeply shocked & saddened by the murderous act...The world has to unite against cowardly anti-Semitic violence & hatred in all its manifestations.” We agree!

What a moving sight! I passed @ConsulFranceNYC. French & EU flags were at half-mast in honor & memory of the 11 Jews killed in a Pittsburgh synagogue. Thank you for your solidarity. The response to #AntiSemitism, wherever it rears its ugly head, must always be strong & unified. pic.twitter.com/gXY2K1tYc3

Our answer to anti-Semitic murders in Pittsburgh synagogue? We ask people of good will worldwide, Jews & Gentiles, to go to a synagogue service on Fri. evening, Nov. 2 &/or Sat. morning, Nov. 3. Fear? No. Intimidation? No. Division? No. Let’s be strong & united. #ShowUpForShabbat pic.twitter.com/ygJxIvon78

Amazing! With only 4 hours’ notice, 1200+ people, joined by elected officials & clergy of many faiths, came together in Westchester. The message? Hate will not defeat us. If Jews are targeted in Pittsburgh, we are all Jews. And as Americans, we stand as one. No one can divide us. pic.twitter.com/2iWpzZH3rb

This just came in from a French diplomatic friend: “The lights at the Eiffel Tower will be turned off tonight at midnight in homage to the victims at the Tree of Life Synagogue” in Pittsburgh. What a meaningful gesture of solidarity & support! Merci beaucoup, Pres @EmmanuelMacron pic.twitter.com/fP1v085AZl

Let me see if I get this right. As a nonpartisan Jewish group, can we support the embassy transfer, Nikki Haley’s voice at the UN & doubts about the Iran nuke deal w/out being labeled enablers of anti-Semitism, or must everything this White House does be declared dead on arrival?

Much as I normally respect Julia Joffe, this is an outrageous, irresponsible tweet. To link the transfer of the U.S. Embassy to Jerusalem, Israel’s legitimate capital, to the Pittsburgh synagogue massacre is stunningly mean-spirited & obtuse. Come on, Julia, you can do better!

Death toll at Pittsburgh synagogue is now 11, w/ 6 wounded. Murderer attacked a baby-naming ceremony. Beyond belief, or is it? For anti-Semites, from Nazis to Hamas, all Jews are fair game. Anti-Semitism begins w/ Jews, but it never ends w/ us. Let’s stand together against hate.
