    Commemorating the one-year anniversary of the November 9, 2005, 
                  terrorist attacks in Amman, Jordan.

Whereas on November 9, 2005, a series of terrorist bombs exploded at the 
        Radisson, Hyatt, and Days Inn hotels in Amman, Jordan, resulting in the 
        deaths of scores of civilians and the injuries of hundreds of others;
Whereas Jordan has been targeted in several terrorist attacks over the past few 
        years and likely remains a target for Islamic extremists;
Whereas Jordan provided unequivocal support to the United States  after the  
        September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks;
Whereas Jordan has arrested suspected terrorists with possible ties to Osama bin 
        Laden's Al Qaeda organization and has provided other critical support to 
        the global war on terrorism; and
Whereas Jordan  remains  a  firm ally of the United States in the global war 
        against terrorism and in helping to achieve a lasting peace in the 
        Middle East: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved,  That the House of Representatives--
            (1) notes with sorrow the one-year anniversary of the 
        November 9, 2005, terrorist attacks in Amman, Jordan;
            (2) condemns in the strongest possible terms the November 
        9, 2005, terrorist attacks;
            (3) expresses its ongoing condolences to the families and 
        friends of those individuals who were killed in the attacks and 
        its sympathies to those individuals who were injured;
            (4) reiterates its support of the Jordanian people and its 
        government;
            (5) values the strong and  lasting friendship between 
        Jordan and the United States and  the continuing cooperation of 
        the two nations in political, economic, and humanitarian 
        endeavors; and
            (6) expresses its readiness to support and assist the 
        Jordanian authorities in their efforts to pursue, disrupt, 
        undermine, and dismantle the networks that plan and carry out 
        such terrorist attacks as the November 9, 2005, terrorist 
        attacks in Amman, Jordan.
