Rep. Rogers Statement on Hamas Attacks on Israel
WASHINGTON – U.S. Rep. Mike Rogers, Chairman of the House Armed Services Committee, released a statement condemning the attacks on Israel by Iran-backed Hamas terrorists.
“I stand with the people of Israel in the face of the cold-blooded assault that Iran-backed Hamas terrorists have launched on their home. Israel has a steadfast right to defend itself against attacks on its people and this barbaric attack will not go unanswered. The U.S. will continue to support our ally through robust security assistance which Israel utilizes in its self defense. Israel remains the United States’ closest ally in the Middle East – our prayers are with the people of Israel.”
