Tennessee Stands United For Israel
Lt. Governor Randy McNally and House Speaker Cameron Sexton Wednesday released a proclamation condemning the invasion of Israel by the terrorist group known as Hamas. The speakers say they issued the proclamation on behalf of the members of the House and the Senate to demonstrate that the people of Tennessee and their legislative stand united in their support for the state of Israel and against those who seek to destroy America’s strongest ally in the Middle East. McNally said in a statement that the attack was an unprovoked, unprecedented and murderous attack on our greatest ally and the only true democracy in the Middle East was not merely an act of terror. It was an act of war.
The proclamation reads in part:
“WHEREAS, the State of Tennessee stands with the people of Israel in this time of crisis, and express our unequivocal support for the Nation of Israel; we fully support their ability to use force and their military might to defend themselves from terrorists; and we will not allow evil organizations and their supporters to lesson our resolve to stand shoulder to shoulder with Israel.”
Speaker Sexton stated that he is a strong supporter of the Nation of Israel and stands with them every single day.
