After Shashi Tharoor's remarks on Hamas not being a 'designated terrorist outfit in India', ex-Israeli Ambassador to India Daniel Carmon, said, "I'm shocked." He added, "After this week's savage slaughter of over a thousand...[humans] can you not label Hamas as terrorists?" Tharoor clarified, "All I said was that India hasn't issued such a designation...Undoubtedly Hamas conducted terrorist acts."
