    The Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) Yasser Arafat, in a letter sent to then Israeli Prime 
        Minister Rabin on September 9, 1993, stated that the PLO 
        ``renounces the use of terrorism and other acts of violence and 
        will assume responsibility over all PLO elements and personnel 
        in order to assure their compliance, prevent violations, and 
        discipline violators''.
            (2) During the last 18 months of the ``Intifada'' hundreds 
        of Israelis have been killed in numerous terrorist attacks 
        committed by terrorists belonging to Palestinian extremist 
        organizations.
            (3) The Department of State report of April 2001 on 
        Palestinian compliance with the Oslo Accords details the 
        involvement of the PLO's Fatah faction and Tanzim militant 
        units in terrorism and violent incitement, stating ``Elements 
        of Fatah, a PLO faction, and members of the PA's [Palestinian 
        Authority's] security forces instigated and directly 
        participated in anti-Israel violence. . .''.
            (4) According to the Israeli Government, more than 70 
        percent of terrorist attacks in Israel have been committed by 
        the Fatah, Tanzim and its military brigades, and by Force 17, 
        Yasser Arafat's Presidential Guard.
            (5) The PLO recently attempted to smuggle more than 50 tons 
        of arms from Iran into PLO-controlled territory.
            (6) President Bush said ``Ordering up weapons that were 
        intercepted on a boat headed for that part of the world is not 
        part of fighting terror [. . .] That's enhancing terror.''.
