New York (USA), October 25 (ANI): US Secretary of State Antony Blinken named and shamed Pakistan’s Lashkar-e-Taiba at UN. He said, “All acts of terrorism are unlawful and unjustifiable. Whether they target people in Nairobi or Bali, in Mumbai, New York or Kibbutz Be'eri...They're unlawful and unjustifiable whether they're carried out by ISIS, by Boko Haram, by Lashkar E Taiba, or by Hamas. They're unlawful and unjustifiable whether victims are targeted for their faith, ethnicity, nationality, or any other reason. This council has a responsibility to denounce member states that arm, fund and train Hamas or any other terrorist group that carries out such horrific acts. Let's not forget that among the more than 1,400 people that Hamas killed on October 7 were citizens from more than 30 UN member states, including many of the members around this very table. The victims included at least 33 American citizens. As President Biden has made clear from the outset of this crisis, while Israel has the right, indeed the obligation, to defend itself."
