Speaker of the House Mike Johnson released a statement over the weekend marking six months since the horrific attack on Israel carried out by terror group Hamas.
“Since the massacre, it’s been appalling to watch anti-Israel rhetoric and support for an unconditional cease-fire grow among Democrats in Washington, even as Hamas holds Israelis and Americans hostage in Gaza,” Johnson said.
“Unlike our Democrat colleagues, House Republicans remain clear-eyed about who the enemy in this fight is, and we will not stop working and praying until each of the hostages is returned home,” he added.
“Today, of all days, Washington must be united in our support for our great ally, Israel, as they fight for their sovereignty and right to exist,” Johnson said.
“It’s time to stop lecturing Israel on how it should best defend itself and begin equipping our friend with the resources necessary to eliminate the threat of Hamas, once and for all,” he continued.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu confirmed over the weekend that there will be no ceasefire without the return of the hostages taken on October 7th.
“Citizens of Israel, there is no war more just than this one, and we are determined to achieve total victory,” Netanyahu said, adding, “I have made it clear to the international community: There will be no ceasefire without the return of the hostages. It simply will not happen.”
