The world has watched violence in the Middle East escalate due to Hamas rocket attacks. The bottom line is that Israel, under the trusted leadership of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, has the absolute right to defend its citizens from murderous attacks. Hamas is a terrorist organization attacking to achieve one goal: bring death and destruction to the people of Israel. The Hamas threat is: ``We love death more than you love life.'' Hamas continues to launch thousands of rockets into Israel and create a network of terror tunnels. Sadly, Palestinian civilians have died because Hamas uses the innocent as human shields. The United States must stand by our greatest ally in the region. Anything but total support of Israel by the President signals weakness for future attacks on the American people. Terrorist threats are increasing, despite the President's denial. The President's actions to defeat terrorism are more significant than words. In conclusion, God bless our troops, and we will never forget September the 11th in the global war on terrorism. Rest in peace, Earl Brown, a South Carolina patriot. ____________________
