A Statement on Israel

As the savage and horrifying details of the slaughter of innocent civilians in Israel at the hands of the terrorist organization Hamas come to light, we are compelled to condemn these evil acts of terrorism. In witnessing the violence and antisemitism that took place on October 7, we must have the courage to call it out for what it is. At Cooley we grieve the senseless loss of life and pray that those taken hostage will soon be reunited with their loved ones. As a firm, we cannot be silent in the face of such suffering and we stand firmly with those affected by these heinous acts of terrorism and denounce hate and persecution in all its forms.
