Unfortunately. that fragile peace has been shattered by the acts of terrorists bent on death and destruction. and Israel must be allowed to defend itself against these attacks. Today a multitude of my fellow Chicagoans will join in a rally at the Federal Plaza to express their solidarity with the State of Israel. I commend these citizens and the organizers of the rally. including the Jewish Federation of Chicago. I also commend the Jewish United Fund for its financial contributions to help move children and refugees out of the northern region until this conflict is resolved. Madam Speaker. I wish peace and prosperity to return to the region for all of its people.
