Costa condemns Hamas Terrorist Attacks against Israel

FRESNO, Calif. - Congressman Jim Costa (CA-21), a member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee released the following statement condemning Hamas terrorist attacks against Israel.  

"The unprovoked attack on Israel by Hamas is an act of war on one of our most trusted and long-term allies in the Middle East. We join with the Israeli people in support of their defense to maintain their independence, sovereignty, and freedoms that we share in common. 

Congress and the administration must come together in a strong bipartisan response to reaffirm our support as Israel defends itself from this attack. We must be prepared to provide additional military and economic resources so that Israel can successfully defend itself against this attack and any other aggression by its professed enemies.”
