RESOLUTION
Regarding the adoption of Resolution 1322 by the Security
Council of the United Nations on October 7, 2000.
Whereas the Security Council of the United Nations voted in
emergency session to adopt Resolution 1322 on October
7, 2000;
Whereas such resolution uniquely condemns Israel for acts of
violence, and cites the excessive use of force by Israelis
against Palestinians starting on September 28, 2000;
Whereas such resolution fails to recognize the violence
against Israel and the citizens of Israel that is organized
and instigated by Palestinian officials and police;
•HRES 623 IH
Whereas such resolution implicitly criticizes the visit by
Israeli Likud official Ariel Sharon to Jerusalem’s holy
sites, which are open to members of all faiths; and
Whereas Israel has made persistent and unprecedented at-
tempts to secure a peace agreement with the Palestin-
ians: Now, therefore, be it

(1) denounces the abstention by the United
States from voting on Resolution 1322, which was

olution null and void as a matter of national policy;
(3) urges the member states of the United Na-
tions to vigorously oppose any and all efforts to ma-
nipulate the Fourth Geneva Convention for the sole
purpose of attacking Israel;
(4) condemns the Security Council of the
United Nations for its one-sided condemnation of
Israel, which failed to take into account the causes
of the violence and the right of Israel as a sovereign
state to defend its citizens and soldiers from life
threatening attacks; and
(5) urges leaders of the Israeli and Palestinian
peoples to seek a secure future for all citizens of the

Middle East through a full and thorough peace proc-
