              economic support fund assistance for israel

    Sec. 517. The Congress finds that progress on the peace process in 
the Middle East is vitally important to United States security 
interests in the region. The Congress recognizes that, in fulfilling 
its obligations under the Treaty of Peace Between the Arab Republic of 
Egypt and the State of Israel, done at Washington on March 26, 1979, 
Israel incurred severe economic burdens. Furthermore, the Congress 
recognizes that an economically and militarily secure Israel serves the 
security interests of the United States, for a secure Israel is an 
Israel which has the incentive and confidence to continue pursuing the 
peace process. Therefore, the Congress declares that, subject to the 
availability of appropriations, it is the policy and the intention of 
the United States that the funds provided in annual appropriations for 
the Economic Support Fund which are allocated to Israel shall not be 
less than the annual debt repayment (interest and principal) from 
Israel to the United States Government in recognition that such a 
principle serves United States interests in the region.

made available to carry out part I of the Foreign Assistance Act of 
1961, as amended, may be used to pay for the performance of involuntary

of the funds made available to carry out part I of the Foreign 
Assistance Act of 1961, as amended, may be used to pay for any

means of family planning. None of the funds made available to carry out 
part I of the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961, as amended, may be 
obligated or expended for any country or organization if the President 
certifies that the use of these funds by any such country or 
organization would violate any of the above provisions related to

provision of this Act or other law, none of the funds appropriated by

part I of the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 that are made available 
for Nicaragua.

        Nations should exempt the government of Bosnia-Hercegovina from 
        its embargo.
    (b) Pursuant to a lifting of the United Nations arms embargo, or to 
a unilateral lifting of the arms embargo by the President of the United

subsection (b), and every 60 days thereafter, the President shall 
report in writing to the Speaker of the House of Representatives and

            (6) under the terms of the Israeli-Palestinian Interim 
        Agreement on the West Bank and Gaza (hereafter the ``Interim

        Principles, the Gaza-Jericho Agreement and the Early 
        Empowerment Agreement, the powers and responsibilities of the

        articles of the Palestinian Covenant which call for Israel's 
        destruction, and to prevent acts of terrorism and hostilities

        discipline violators and contribute to stemming the violence 
        that has resulted in the deaths of over 140 Israeli and United 
        States citizens since the signing of the Declaration of 
        Principles;
            (3) prohibit participation in its activities and in the

        individuals which continue to promote and commit acts of
