Senate Republicans stand united in opposing violent antisemitic protests and Hamas’s use of rape as a weapon of war. The senators also reiterated Israel’s right to defend itself and emphasized the importance of denying Hamas the ability to reconstitute in the region to ensure the horrific events of October 7, 2023 are never repeated. “One year ago today, Israel was brutally and indiscriminately attacked by Hamas terrorists in an act of sheer evil that resulted in more than one thousand innocent people viciously murdered by terrorists. I am particularly sickened by Hamas’s use of sexual violence on this dark day, an inexcusable and disgusting war crime that must be universally condemned and never again used as a weapon of war. One year after these terrorist attacks and more recent attacks against the Israeli state, I unequivocally stand with the Jewish people, including our communities in West Virginia,” Senator Capito said.
