Mr. FULCHER. Mr. Speaker, I rise in support of Israel and H. Res. 771.
Israel is our most important partner in fighting terrorism. In fact, they are the first line of defense for the U.S. when it comes to terrorism because the sources of that terrorism are the same for both of us.
Israel is a fabulous intelligence partner. I liken them to a giant antenna in the Middle East that serves and provides information to America.
As the only true democracy in the Middle East, Israel is a beacon for the American ideals of freedom, personal liberty, and market economy.
Mr. Speaker, I urge my colleagues to stand together and support Israel and H. Res. 771.
