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

military proxies, including Hamas, Hezbollah, and the
Palestinian Islamic Jihad, against the people of the State of
Israel;

the State of Israel;
