Rep. Mark Kirk will cosponsor Pete King's "America Stands With Israel Act." The Illinois Republican Senate candidate says in a statement:
As a democracy, Israel has a right to defend her borders from Hamas terrorists and their Iranian sponsors. Without Israel’s quarantine of Hamas terrorist weapons, Gaza would become a missile farm and those missiles would be used. We should not allow a heavily armed "Hamasistan" to rise.
The bill (download it here) reaffirms American support for Israel and ends "United States participation in and membership on the United Nations Human Rights Council."
