We will not stand for antisemitism.Tehila Sabo PA-C (Hollywood, 2023-10-22)

I believe that silence only allows injustice to continue. Hamas is a terror group and must be stopped, not denouncing Hamas as terrorists will only allow them to tear up our country from within! When they come after your family and your children, remember, you had a chance to do something but were silent!!! this is not Islamaphobe this is Terrorist Phobia!Masha Donat, PAC (Brooklyn, 2023-10-22)

I think it's important to stand against atrocities. This was not a battle or single hate crime. This was an act of evil. Mainstream media did not display the brutality. Over 100 women raped and 40 babies beheaded, kids tied up together and burned alive. The dismbowlment of a pregnant woman while she was ALIVE and beheaded the baby then the mother..I can go on and on. I have pictures and sources for all of it. Not to talk about the hostages situation.If you denounce black racism, racism against LGBTQ then you news to denounce antisemitism. These people were only killed because they were Jewish. And now we see a rise of antisemitism around the world. Anti-Israel, Zionism, call it what u want it's Antisemitsm in all forms. And WE have to denounce it and not stand for it in any form. Thank you!

Not standing by what’s right is wrong, and the AAPA is wrong. They are always saying how we need to have a stronger PA voice and yet they chose not to use their voice at all when it matter most. They even have someone working under the AAPA spewing hatred against Jews online calling us cockroaches. I am ashamed of the AAPA right now.Batsheva Tagger PAC (New York, 2023-10-22)

Antisemitism is pure racism and not putting out a statement regarding the brutal attacks on Israel by Hamas is the equivalent of being okay with it. As practitioners, knowing 200+ hostages are in need of medical care and held captive, it’s imperative we as clinicians speak up!!!Batsheva Fridman PA-C (Brooklyn, 2023-10-23)

This was a horrific attack on civilians; and as health care providers we need to denounce such atrocities. We cannot continue to allow physicians or any other healthcare provider to use their platform to further antisemitic comments.Shany Sharabany FNP- BC (Brooklyn, 2023-10-23)

I am standing up against hate, regardless if you are pro Palestine or pro israel there is NO justification of how Hamas came and murdered, brutalized, raped and kidnapped civilians. And still have many as hostages!!! Please stand up against hate and support Israel!!!Judith Applebaum (Lakewood, 2023-10-23)

I am a Jewish woman who cares about the safety of and equality of our Jewish students and our children on campuses- we have seen this before- outright statements and deafening silence which signals tacit agreement is what allowed the Holocaust to occur - we are no longer questioning how that happened - we are questioning how we can prevent it from happening again.Noa Havlin (Brooklyn, 2023-10-23)
