Whereas Rafik Hariri served the people of Lebanon as a chief 
mediator between Lebanese militias during the 1983 Ge-

Whereas, as an enormously successful businessman and de-
voted countryman, Rafik Hariri instituted several recon-
struction and investment efforts to help rebuild Lebanon
•HRES 91 IH 
and restore its status as a center of business, finance, 
and tourism; 
Whereas, as the elected Prime Minister of Lebanon for three 
consecutive terms from 1992 to 1998 and then two more 
from 2000 to 2004, Rafik Hariri continued his steadfast 
dedication to Lebanese unity and economic development, 
having attracted several foreign investments; 
Whereas, Rafik Hariri was a man committed to humanitarian 
causes, he founded several philanthropic, humanitarian, 
and educational foundations in Lebanon, Jordan, and 
Saudi Arabia to provide educational and medical assist-
ance to the needy; 
Whereas Rafik Hariri was held in the highest regard by the 
international community and met personally with Presi-
dent Bush to discuss U.S.-Lebanese relations as recently 
as 2002; and 
Whereas Rafik Hariri’s exemplary leadership shall serve as a 
model for the world community and he will be deeply 
missed by world leaders after the news that he was killed 
February 14, 2005, in Beirut, Lebanon: Now, therefore, 
be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives—
