RESOLUTION
Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives in support of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s initiative to transition the United States-Israel relationship toward mutual defense cooperation and joint economic investment, recognizing the contributions of Israel to joint military operations against Iran, and condemning the global rise of antisemitism.
- (1) reaffirms the special bond between the United States and the State of Israel, grounded in shared democratic values, mutual security interests, and the deep bonds of friendship between the American and Israeli people;
- (2) commends Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for his bold proposal to transition the United States-Israel relationship away from traditional foreign assistance and toward a new era of mutual cooperation, joint investment, and shared technological development;
- (3) strongly supports the development of a new memorandum of understanding between the United States and Israel to replace traditional military assistance with a framework of joint defense codevelopment, coproduction, and mutual investment that will strengthen both nations’ defense industries and military readiness;
- (4) expresses its gratitude to Prime Minister Netanyahu and the people of Israel for their courageous partnership with the United States in military operations against Iran, which together dealt a historic blow to Iran’s nuclear weapons program and significantly degraded the Islamic Republic’s capacity to threaten United States interests in the region; and
- (5) condemns antisemitism in all its forms, including physical attacks on Jewish individuals and institutions, the harassment of Jewish Americans, the spread of antisemitic propaganda, and the delegitimization of Israel’s right to exist.
