AI Summary
This Resolution expresses the Florida Senate's strong support for the State of Israel and unequivocally condemns the unprovoked and barbaric attacks initiated by Hamas, a designated Foreign Terrorist Organization, on October 7, 2023. The resolution highlights the horrific violence, including killings, rapes, torture, and hostage-taking, perpetrated by Hamas and supported by the Iranian regime, which also backs groups like Hezbollah. It acknowledges the significant threat to Israel's security, the loss of American lives, and the incitement of domestic terrorism against Jewish people worldwide, including in Florida. The Senate reaffirms Israel's sovereign right to exist and defend itself, calls for an immediate end to financial support for Hamas and its allies, and rejects threats against Jewish communities. Finally, it resolves to send copies of this resolution to Florida's congressional delegation and the Israeli Ambassador to the United States as a demonstration of solidarity.
