                               RESOLUTION


 
Condemning the acts of terrorism committed by Hamas against the people 
                        of the State of Israel.

Whereas the democratic, Jewish State of Israel is a key ally and a strategic 
        partner of the United States;
Whereas it remains a standing policy of the United States to support Israel's 
        security efforts;
Whereas American policy has long sought to bring peace to the Middle East and 
        recognize that both the Israeli and Palestinian people should be able to 
        live in safe and sovereign states, free from fear and violence, with 
        mutual recognition; and
Whereas Hamas began launching rockets into the Israeli capital of Jerusalem and 
        surrounding areas belonging to the Jewish people of Israel: Now, 
        therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
            (1) condemns the acts of terrorism committed by Hamas 
        against the people of the State of Israel;
            (2) recognizes Jerusalem as the legitimate capital city of 
        the State of Israel;
            (3) supports Israel's efforts of self-determination and 
        collective security against external forces; and
            (4) reaffirms support for policies and initiatives 
        combatting anti-Semitic behavior around the world.
