Reps. Mario Díaz-Balart (R-Fla.), Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-Fla.), Tony Gonzales (R-Texas) and Adriano Espaillat (D-N.Y.), the co-chairs of the Latino-Jewish Caucus, called for accountability three decades after the 1994 bombing of the AMIA Jewish center in Buenos Aires.
“It has been 30 years since the AMIA bombing, which was the deadliest terror attack in Argentina’s history and the deadliest antisemitic attack outside Israel since the Holocaust,” the four members of Congress stated. “However, justice for the victims has not yet been achieved.”
“Evidence uncovered by Argentina’s judicial system demonstrates the involvement of Iran and Hezbollah,” the four said, noting that they introduced a resolution stating U.S. solidarity for the Argentinian Jewish community. The resolution also underscored “our commitment to honor the AMIA victims and pursue justice on their behalf,” they said.
