Thank you, Mr. Chairman, and thanks for this opportunity to talk about a small bill, 310 brave women who were CSTs.

I'm going to say here today, and the protesters who have all been escorted out probably don't understand, but they are playing into the hands of Iran.

Many in this body continue to say that no words can describe the horror that the Israeli people are facing. That is not true. There are words to describe it and they have to be said. Some of those words are simply the facts, the real…

They do nothing or virtually nothing to tell you what to do to prevent it.

Earlier I attempted to quote Vladimir Lenin: The capitalist will sell the rope with which we hang them. This is exactly what we have been doing. There is another truism that came from Einstein: Insanity is doing the same thing over and…

I have an amendment at the desk. The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will designate the amendment. The text of the amendment is as follows: At the end of the bill (before the short title), add the following: Sec. _. None of the funds appropriated…

In short, this is overly broad. I repeat, this is overly broad. As an American of Arab ancestry and a Christian, it would, in fact, be devastating to the Chaldean community left in Iraq. It would be devastating to the support we have. Mr…

I can only say that the gentleman from Florida is mistaken. His amendment assumes the Lebanese Armed Forces is in some sort of disarray. It is not. It is the most respected institution in Lebanon. It assumes that it has not been a good…

In closing, every day, this administration tells us the nature of the kind of technology theft that is going on. The conclusion of this amendment is simply the result of the very statements made not by the previous administration but by…

Karzai who he and his brother raped the country and I'm going to phrase it rape the American taxpayers of billions of dollars.

Isn't it true that when Richard Nixon saw failures to comply, saw aggression, saw an attempt to take ground by his adversaries... he bombed the shit out of them.

Briefly, in response to my colleague from Tennessee, the majority of FAA NOTAMs do not originate from outside agencies. This is a fraction of a fraction of all NOTAMs, and it is only those that will be affected by this amendment. In…
