WASHINGTON, D.C. - Representative John James (MI-10) expressed strong condemnation for the recent anti-semitic attacks carried out by Hamas against the state of Israel. In a statement released today, James emphasized Israel's right to defend itself against terror and truculence, while reaffirming the unwavering support of the United States for its Israeli allies.
"I strongly condemn the anti-semitic attacks by Hamas against the state of Israel and its people late last night," stated Representative James. "Israel has every right to defend itself against terror and truculence, and the United States stands behind our Israeli allies. My family and I grieve with those affected by this attack and pray for resolution."
Representative James went on to criticize President Biden's perceived lack of action on the global stage, asserting that this attack is a direct consequence of his impotence. James claimed that the $6 billion released by the Biden administration to Iran last month went directly towards funding these attacks. He stressed the importance of American leadership and warned that weak leaders leave friends and allies more vulnerable to violence.
"The lesson must be learned that American leadership matters, and weak leaders leave our friends and allies more vulnerable against violence," said James.
The recent attacks by Hamas on Israel have escalated tensions in the region and sparked international concern. As the situation unfolds, Representative James stands firm in his support for Israel and calls for a swift resolution to the ongoing conflict.
