Jewish Connection News
Jun 4, 2025
On Sunday May 4th, 2025 A Diverse Crowd Of Hindu And Jewish Community Members Gathered At The Torch Of Friendship In Downtown Miami For A Peaceful Rally To Honor The 26 Victims Of The brutal Islamic Terrorist Attack In Pahalgam, Kashmir, On April 22nd, 2025. Organized By The Kashmir Solidarity Foundation And Supported By The Hindu American Political Action Committee Of Florida (HAPAC of FL), Hindu American Foundation (HAF), Gummakonda Reddy Foundation, HinduAction, Dharmansh USA, And Kashmir Solidarity USA, The Rally Unequivocally Condemned Pakistan-Sponsored Islamic Terrorism And Called For Decisive Global Action.
The rally’s objectives were to:
• Educate South Florida communities about the atrocities in Kashmir.
• Raise awareness among political leaders about the threat of Islamic Terrorism in India and the world.
• Unite communities worldwide suffering from Radical Terrorism, including Jewish, Druze, Yazidi, Christian and other targeted groups.
• Express solidarity with all victims of such violence and reject media narratives that obscure, deny or equivocate these acts.
• Urge the U.S. Government to strengthen partnerships with India to combat Terrorism.
• Expose Pakistan as the epicenter of Islamic Terrorism and demand accountability for its decades-long support of violent extremism.
Participants stood in solidarity, condemning the attack perpetrated by The Resistance Front, a proxy of the Pakistan-backed Lashkar-e-Taiba. The rally honored not only the Pahalgam victims but also countless others globally affected by Islamic Terrorism. Attendees observed a moment of silence, prayed for the grieving families and heard impassioned remarks from community leaders.
The event concluded with a keynote address by Florida Congressional Nominee Joe Kaufman, who delivered a powerful call to action: “The 26 lives lost in Pahalgam were stolen in a sacred place of peace by terrorists backed by Pakistan’s military and intelligence services. This was not an isolated act—it is part of a global pattern of Islamic Terrorism that threatens Hindus, Jews and all who cherish freedom. We demand that the United States, India, and the international community hold Pakistan accountable and dismantle the networks fueling this violence.”
The rally sent an unequivocal message to leaders in the U.S., India, and around the world: Islamic Terrorism must be confronted without hesitation, and Pakistan’s role as a state sponsor of terror can no longer be ignored. The Hindu and Jewish Communities of South Florida stand united in their resolve to seek justice and build a safer future.
