We, the brothers of Zeta Tau Chapter of the Alpha Epsilon Pi Fraternity at the University of California, Irvine; unequivocally condemn the attacks against all parties impacted by Hamas. The events of the prior weekend are extremely unsettling and discouraging to the Jewish community. This was an unprovoked attack against Jews, that was coordinated for erev Shemini Atzeret, the end of Sukkot, Shabbat and the 50-year anniversary of the Yom Kippur War. We are appalled at the celebration of Jewish deaths by supporters of Hamas.
We want to be abundantly clear that we support any and all affected by the conflict and send our condolences to all those families who have lost loved ones.
Alpha Epsilon Pi stands with the State of Israel, and its absolute right to defend itself. We undoubtfully condemn any actions or support for Hamas.
Fraternally,
The Brothers of Zeta Tau Chapter of the Alpha Epsilon Pi Fraternity
