Resolution No. ________

 

A Proclamation Condemning Hamas and the Terrorist attacks on Israel

WHEREAS, On October 7th, 2023, the terrorist organization, Hamas, led a series of surprise attacks on Israel which resulted in the death of thousands of innocent people, including children;

WHEREAS, Hamas is declared, by the United States, as a foreign terrorist organization;

WHEREAS, Hamas uses violence, fear and civilian targeting tactics to attack the people of Israel due to deep-rooted anti-Semitic beliefs;

WHEREAS, Israel has the right to defend itself against all forms of  violence including armed aggression and terrorism; 

WHEREAS, Israel is one of the United States’ strongest allies and we, as Americans, have a duty to provide support for the innocent lives being attacked in the Holy Land;

NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, Terrorism is a horrendous and detestable form of violence that deserves the strongest condemnation. It intentionally targets innocent civilians, causing immense suffering, loss of life and widespread fear. Hamas is an anti-semitic hate group and no American should support such a group of terrorists who kidnap, rape, murder and attack innocent civilians.

BE IT FINALLY RESOLVED, that we encourage the people of the United States of America to stand with Israel during this time and denounce Hamas and all forms of terrorism across the world.

APPROVED this 22nd day of October, 2023.
