|---|
| 7 | 8 | | a Foreign Terrorist Organization; and |
|---|
| 8 | 9 | | WHEREAS, The Hamas terrorist organization launched a brutal, |

|---|
| 14 | 15 | | WHEREAS, In its attack, Hamas has fired thousands of rockets |

|---|
| 17 | 18 | | WHEREAS, The level of logistical sophistication demonstrated |

|---|
| 20 | 21 | | WHEREAS, The timing of this Hamas terrorism operation to |
|---|
| 21 | 22 | | coincide with the observance of the Jewish Sabbath and celebration |

|---|
| 24 | 25 | | WHEREAS, Hamas continues to brazenly locate elements of its |
|---|
| 25 | 26 | | terrorist infrastructure in civilian population centers using |

|---|
| 27 | 28 | | RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 88th Texas |

|---|
| 42 | 43 | | 6. Encourage all other American states to likewise condemn |
|---|

|---|
| 45 | 46 | | citizens; and |
|---|
| 46 | 47 | | 7. Call upon the United States to provide all assistance as |
