H. RES. 55
Urging the President to call on the President of Syria to permit the
extradition of fugitive Nazi war criminal Alois Brunner.
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
JANUARY 27, 1993
Mr. MCNULTY submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the
Committee on Foreign Affairs
RESOLUTION
Urging the President to call on the President of Syria to
permit the extradition of fugitive Nazi war criminal Alois
Brunner.
Whereas Austrian-born Alois Brunner, who joined the Nazi
party at the age of 19, was the deputy and personal sec-
retary to Adolf Eichmann, who was personally respon-
sible for sending to their deaths more than 120,000 Jews
from Austria, Germany, France, Slovakia, and Greece;
Whereas, in 1938, after Kristallnacht, Brunner joined the
Nazi Secret Police and subsequently requested a transfer
to the Central Office for Jewish Emigration in Vienna,
where he began his career in genocide as Eichmann’s
personal secretary;
•HRES 55 IH
Whereas Brunner, often characterized as the personification
of Nazi sadism in all its horror, executed Eichmann’s
plan for the Final Solution;
Whereas Brunner was particularly brutal toward French
Jews, sending to their deaths more than 200 children
from Jewish-operated orphanages, including 34 children
from Louviciennes;
Whereas, in 1954, Brunner was sentenced to death in
absentia by French courts in Paris and Marseilles for
crimes against humanity;
Whereas, since 1955, Brunner has lived in Damascus, Syria,
under the protection of the Syrian government and Syr-
ian bodyguards and has assumed the name of Dr. Georg
Fischer;
Whereas it is well known that Brunner lives in an apartment
at 7 Rue Haddad in Damascus;
Whereas the Syrian government has frequently denied that
Brunner lives in Syria; and
Whereas attempts by Austria and Germany to secure Brun-
ner’s extradition from Syria have been unsuccessful:
Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives urges
the President to call on the President of Syria to permit
the extradition of the fugitive Nazi war criminal Alois
Brunner for trial in Germany.

H. Res. 560
In the House of Representatives, U. S.,
October 5, 1994.
Whereas the first ever nonracial democratic elections were
held in South Africa in April 1994, resulting in a
broadbased Government of National Unity led by Presi-
dent Nelson Mandela, thereby ending 350 years of racial
segregation known as apartheid;
Whereas Nelson Mandela will be received by President Clin-
ton on the occasion of his historic state visit to the
United States as the first head of state representing the
newly democratic Republic of South Africa;
Whereas South Africa, rich in natural and human resources,
is already one of the most important countries on the Af-
rican continent and, with the end of apartheid, has the
potential to become a major world leader;
Whereas South Africa has a critical role to play within the
Southern Africa region as well as throughout the con-
tinent as a stable model of democracy and economic
development;
Whereas if South Africa were to fail in its efforts to create
a stable nonracial democracy, the ripple effect on the rest
of the continent would be costly in terms of lives and
emergency assistance;
HRES 560 EH
Whereas the early stages of the transition in South Africa
have proven to be an exceptional example of political rec-
onciliation and compromise critical to nation-building;
Whereas Nelson Mandela’s exemplary leadership has further
enhanced South Africa’s opportunities in the area of re-
construction and development;
Whereas President Nelson Mandela has asked the inter-
national community for substantial support as South Af-
rica struggles to meet the needs of its 41,000,000 people;
Whereas the United States has stated that one of its major
foreign policy objectives is to support the enlargement of
democracy throughout the world;
Whereas the transition to a nonracial democratic society in
South Africa is very much in the interest of the United
States;
Whereas opposition to apartheid in South Africa has been a
longstanding theme of the foreign policies of both Repub-
lican and Democratic Administrations;
Whereas the Congress of the United States, in both the Com-
prehensive Anti-Apartheid Act of 1986 and the South Af-
rica Democratic Transition Support Act of 1993, has
taken particular interest in the transition to a democratic
nonracial society in South Africa;
Whereas United States support contributed significantly to
the holding of free and fair elections in South Africa;
Whereas the United States has pledged its continuing com-
mitment to long-term development for South Africa in
the post-apartheid era; and
Whereas President Clinton announced a post-election initia-
tive for South Africa that will provide support for the

it
Resolved, That it is the sense of the House of Rep-
resentatives that—
(1) President Nelson Mandela, the first head of
state of a nonracial democratic South Africa, de-
serves the congratulations and support of the United
States;
(2) the United States shall remain engaged in
the political and economic development of South
Africa;
(3) assistance to South Africa should continue
to focus on such issues as job creation, housing, en-
terprise development, education, democracy, and
health; and
(4) steps should be taken to increase trade, in-
vestment, and development in South Africa.
