                               RESOLUTION

 
  Condemning in the strongest terms the terrorist attacks in London, 
                       England, on July 7, 2005.

Whereas, on July 7, 2005, a series of explosions on public transportation 
        facilities in London, England, resulted in the death of scores of 
        civilians and the injury of hundreds of others;
Whereas the explosions had been planned and carried out by terrorists;
Whereas British first responders reacted swiftly and heroically to save and 
        assist civilian victims;
Whereas the people of London and of the United Kingdom have a history of bravery 
        and resolve in the face of terrorism and war;
Whereas the people and Government of the United Kingdom have been engaged in 
        common efforts with the people and Government of the United States in 
        every front in the Global War on Terrorism and in other efforts to 
        assure a safer and more secure world;
Whereas the people and Government of the United Kingdom have been making heroic 
        sacrifices in Afghanistan, in Iraq, and in the ongoing ``shadow war'' 
        against terrorists around the world; and
Whereas President George W. Bush, then present in Gleneagles, Scotland, with 
        other world leaders, expressed the solidarity of the people and 
        Government of the United States with the people and Government of the 
        United Kingdom: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved,  That the House of Representatives--
            (1) condemns in the strongest terms the terrorist attacks 
        in London, England, on July 7, 2005;
            (2) expresses its condolences to the families and friends 
        of those individuals who were killed in the attacks and 
        expresses its sympathies to those individuals who have been 
        injured;
            (3) joins with President George W. Bush in expressing the 
        solidarity of the people and Government of the United States 
        with the people and Government of the United Kingdom as the 
        recovery continues from these cowardly and inhuman attacks; and
            (4) expresses its readiness to provide any necessary 
        assistance to the United Kingdom authorities and to devote the 
        necessary resources to bring to justice those individuals 
        responsible for the London attacks, and to pursue, disrupt, 
        undermine, and dismantle the networks which plan and carry out 
        such attacks.
