US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton called on the international community to "act against anti-Semitism" at a keynote address at a symposium on ending genocide, held at the US Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington on Tuesday.
Clinton reaffirmed her support for Israel and the Jewish people at the Holocaust Museum, stating: "When heads of states and religious leaders deny the Holocaust, we must not let their lies go unanswered we must respond when criticism of Israeli government policy crosses over to anti-Semitism.
In spite of calling for the US to act before the match is struck in an apparent reference to Syria and Iran, she touted a strategy of prevention that is not code for military action, rather, a focus on diplomacy, humanitarian assistance, law enforcement and sanctions to achieve results.
The US secretary of state also warned that when a fire is at full blaze, our actions will be less effective.
