Reaffirming the State of Israel's right to exist, condemning antisemitism in all forms, and rejecting false equivalencies between democracies and terrorist organizations.

This resolution (HRES 849) is a symbolic House of Representatives statement affirming Israel's right to exist and condemning antisemitism. It specifically rejects false comparisons between Israel and terrorist groups like Hamas, condemns Hamas's October 7 attacks and hostage-taking, and dismisses claims that U.S. military aid to Israel contributed to those attacks. The resolution also rejects the phrase "from the river to the sea" as supporting genocide and disputes narratives about Israeli military actions at Al-Ahli Arab Hospital. As a non-binding resolution, it expresses congressional position without creating new laws or policies.
