“Last Friday night, an Israeli family sat down for Shabbat dinner to celebrate the birth of a new grandchild, but a 19-year-old Palestinian terrorist put an end to this joyous occasion. The terrorist brutally attacked the Salomon family with a large knife. Pictures of the family's home show a white floor stained red with the blood of the innocents. A father and two of his children were murdered that night. Upon learning of the tragic event, Palestinians in Gaza took to the streets to sing, dance, and celebrate. No Palestinian leader has even condemned this grizzly attack. Mr. Speaker, unfortunately, this is our U.S. tax dollars at work. The millions the United States sends to the Palestinians are funneled to terrorists and their families through the so-called martyrs fund. The leaders we prop up glorify terrorists and incite violence. The American people refuse to continue this insanity. We refuse to continue enabling terror against the Israeli people. And that is just the way it is. ____________________”
