IL Freedom Caucus Condemns Violent Attacks Against Israel
Springfield, IL – The IL Freedom Caucus today is issuing the following statement condemning the actions of Hamas and calling on leaders in Washington D.C. to support the Nation of Israel.
“What is happening in Israel is appalling. Hamas is a terrorist organization that targets innocent civilians and then cowardly uses the Palestinian people as human shields. We unequivocally condemn Hamas and their senseless, violent attacks on innocent people. We urge the President and Congress to not succumb to Hamas propaganda and to support Israel in its right to defend itself against these violent terrorists.”
The events in Israel are a reminder that evil is real, the threat of terrorism is real, and we should be diligent as a nation to focus also on the safety of our own citizens. One of the best places to start is to secure our borders, defend our Second Amendment rights, and end the Sanctuary State policies that are putting our own citizens in harm’s way. We must support Israel, but we also need our leaders to step up and defend our nation by protecting our borders.”
