"This was an act of sheer evil. To any country, any organization, anyone thinking of taking advantage of this situation, I have one word: don’t."

"I have not given up hope of bringing these folks home."

"The United States stands with Israel. We will not ever fail to have their back. This is not a moment for any party hostile to Israel to exploit these attacks to seek advantage."
