…..The response of the United States has been appalling. US President Barack Obama is calling on all parties to show restraint. Let me repeat that. The president of the United States is calling on the elected officials of democratic Israel and the bloodthirsty terrorists of Hamas to show restraint. To whom is he directing his appeal? Hamas’ charter calls for the annihilation of Jews wherever they may be found. Does the president think that Hamas gives one damn for his calls for restraint? And where is the outright, unconditional condemnation of Hamas for firing rockets at children?

Mr. President, my four children, American citizens, are all running to bomb shelters in the Israeli capital while you’re asking terrorists to show restraint. For goodness sake, Mr. President. Do the moral thing. Say outright that the United States stands with Israel fully, completely, and unreservedly. That it supports the right of Israel to enact all military measures to defend its citizens. That it utterly condemns Hamas for its terrorism and will never recognize Hamas in any shape or form, other than to recognize it as a terror entity that must be destroyed. That it will supply Israel with everything it needs to eradicate the Hamas terror network in Gaza. That the United States, in having experienced the horrors of 9/11, understands the threat Israel is facing and stands with democratic countries everywhere, especially its most reliable ally, in defeating terrorists wherever they may be found.

Mr. President. This is a moral issue. And you are a moral man. Do the right thing. This is not a time to be neutral. America is not Switzerland. Get off the fence.
