                    (C) The Colombian Armed Forces are cooperating 
                fully with civilian prosecutors and judicial 
                authorities in such cases (including providing 
                requested information, such as the identity of persons 
                suspended from the Armed Forces and the nature and

                logistical support, or have otherwise aided or abetted 
                paramilitary organizations or successor armed groups, 
                by identifying and confiscating land and other assets 
                illegally acquired by such organizations or their 
                associates and returning such land or assets to their 
                rightful owners, by revoking reduced sentences for 
                demobilized paramilitaries who engage in new criminal 
                activity, and by arresting, prosecuting under civilian

                the land and property rights of Colombia's indigenous 
                and Afro-Colombian communities, and are distinguishing 
                between civilians, including displaced persons, and 
                combatants in their operations.
            (3) The balance of such funds may be obligated after July 
        31, 2008, if, before such date, the Secretary of State consults

                rule of law and border security in egypt

    Sec. 699Q. (a) The Senate makes the following findings:
            (1) Fighting in Gaza during the summer of 2007 demonstrated 
        that the terrorist organization Hamas, which unlawfully seized 
        control over Gaza in June 2007, has been able to achieve a 
        dramatic increase in the quantity and sophistication of arms at 
        its disposal.
            (2) Without these arms, the terrorist organization would 
        not have been able to seize control over the Gaza territory.
            (3) There is substantial evidence that a significant 
        proportion of these arms were smuggled across the border 
        between Gaza and Egypt.
            (4) The Egyptian military is a capable force, made possible 
        in substantial part by a close relationship with the United 
        States.
            (5) Concurrent with the escalation of dangerous arms 
        smuggling across the border between Egypt and Gaza has been a 
        retrogression in the rule of law in Egypt.
            (6) This loss of hard-earned ground has been characterized 
        by reports of harsh reaction by the Government of Egypt to 
        dissent, including the jailing of political opponents.
            (7) The United States has provided aid to Egypt in excess 
        of $28,000,000,000 over the past three decades.
    (b) The Senate--
            (1) reaffirms its long-standing friendship with the people 
        of Egypt;
            (2) believes that our friendship with Egypt requires the 
        Senate to address such vital policy concerns;
            (3) urges the Government of Egypt to make concrete and 
        measurable progress on restoring the rule of law, including 
        improving the independence of the judiciary and improving 
        criminal procedures and due process rights and halting the 
        cross-border flow of arms to Gaza;
            (4) believes it is the best interest of Egypt, the region, 
        and the United States that Egypt takes prompt action to 
        demonstrate progress on these matters; and
            (5) urges the Department of State to work vigorously and 
        expeditiously with the Government of Egypt and the Government 
        of Israel to bring the border between Egypt and Gaza border 
        under effective control.
    This Act may be cited as the ``Department of State, Foreign 
Operations, and Related Programs Appropriations Act, 2008''.

            Attest:
