                       WE MUST STAND WITH ISRAEL

  (Mr. FULCHER asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mr. FULCHER. Mr. Speaker, October 7 was the deadliest day for the 
Jewish people since the Holocaust. Hamas killed over 1,200 innocent 
Israeli people, including women, children, the elderly, and took over 
240 hostages.
  Israel is one of our Nation's greatest allies. The intelligence we 
received from them helps us combat terrorism every day. President 
Biden's demand that they surrender or cease to pursue Hamas in response 
is a slap in the face to victims. It is sickening to see our President 
support a terrorist organization that circulated videos of themselves 
murdering innocent children over an ally that has helped protect our 
homeland for decades.
  Hamas is working toward the genocidal eradication of the only 
successful democracy in the Middle East. Now more than ever, we must 
stand with Israel and fight anti-Semitism. I support H. Res. 1117 to 
oppose the one-sided pressure on Israel, and I urge my colleagues to do 
the same.
