WASHINGTON, DC – Congressman John Culberson (TX-07) delivered the following remarks on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives:
Mr. Speaker, America has no better friend on the face of the Earth than the people of Israel. Israel is the only nation on Earth that can say they’ve stood by America 100 percent of the time for 100 percent of their existence. And it’s so important today that America, that our president, that this Congress, stand behind the people of Israel at this moment of supreme peril.
When the Iranians are building a nuclear weapon as fast as they can, that the Iranians have said they’re going to use it, America must stand by Israel. There should be no doubt in the mind of every Israeli, of every friend of Israel around the world that America will stand behind her best friend 100 percent the time, just as they have stood beside us 100 percent of the time.
We will be there for Israel to defend her safety, her security, and her prosperity against any enemy, any time, anywhere.
