The American Human Rights Council (AHRC-USA) joins the nation in condemning the attempt at harming American political figures and CNN by sending them pipe bombs in the mail.

TheseĀ domesticĀ terrorism attempts serve as an important indicator that the toxic political environment and the charged rhetoric that comes from politicians does have consequences.

AHRC salutes the US postal services and law enforcement authorities for their vigilance that spared the country the loss of innocentĀ lives.
