Terror has no place in India & US: Tharoor as people burned at US pro-Israel event
The incident at a pro-Israel rally in the United States, where a man burned six people, has left the nation in shock. The attack has sparked widespread outrage and concern, with many condemning the act of violence. Indian Parliamentarian Shashi Tharoor, who is set to lead a delegation to the US, has also reacted to the incident, stating that “terror has no place” in either India or the US.
The incident occurred during a pro-Israel rally in Los Angeles, where a man was seen pouring flammable liquid on a group of people and setting them on fire. The victims, who are believed to be in their 20s and 30s, were taken to the hospital with severe burns. The motive behind the attack is still unclear, but it is being investigated by the authorities.
Tharoor, who is a member of the Indian parliament, condemned the attack in strong terms. “Members of the Indian MPs’ delegation learned with concern about the terror attack,” he said, adding, “We share [US] Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s view that ‘terror has no place’ in our countries.”
Tharoor’s condemnation of the attack is significant, as it highlights the strong stance that India and the US are taking against terrorism. The two nations have a long history of cooperation on security issues, and the attack has only strengthened their resolve to combat terrorism.
The Indian delegation, led by Tharoor, is set to arrive in the US on Tuesday. During their visit, they will meet with US officials and discuss a range of issues, including security and terrorism. The delegation will also pay tribute to the victims of the attack and offer their condolences to the families of those affected.
The attack has also sparked a renewed debate about the threat of terrorism in the US. The country has faced several terrorist attacks in recent years, including the 9/11 attacks, the Boston Marathon bombing, and the Orlando nightclub shooting. The latest attack is a chilling reminder of the threat that terrorism poses to the US and its people.
In the aftermath of the attack, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio has condemned the violence and expressed his condolences to the victims and their families. “We will not be intimidated by terrorism,” Rubio said in a statement. “We will continue to work tirelessly to combat this scourge and protect our people.”
The attack has also sparked a strong reaction from the Israeli government, which has condemned the violence and expressed its solidarity with the US. “We stand in solidarity with the people of the United States in the face of this heinous attack,” said Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. “We will continue to work together to combat terrorism and ensure the security of our people.”
The incident has also raised concerns about the security measures in place at public events in the US. The attack has highlighted the need for increased vigilance and security measures to prevent similar incidents in the future.
In conclusion, the attack at the pro-Israel rally in the US is a chilling reminder of the threat that terrorism poses to our nations. The condemnation of the attack by Tharoor and other leaders is a powerful statement against terrorism and a testament to the strength of the bond between India and the US.
As the Indian delegation arrives in the US, they will be met with a nation that is united against terrorism. The delegation will play an important role in strengthening the ties between India and the US and in combating the threat of terrorism.
