HATE IN THE NAME OF RELIGION
(Mr. POE of Texas asked and was given permission to address the House
for 1 minute.)
Mr. POE of Texas. Mr. Speaker, they cry peace, peace, peace in the
daylight, but, when darkness of the night comes, they murder the
innocent. Such was the case over the weekend when suspected Palestinian
radicals killed five Israeli members of the Fogel family living in the
West Bank. The assassins slithered into the Fogel home and murdered Udi
and his wife, Ruth, and brutally butchered three of their children,
ages 11, 4, and 3 months.
These homicides are an act of terror against the Jews of Israel. They
appear to be political murders by radicals who preach hate in the name
of religion. Baby killers of any religion or political belief are the
lowest forms of the human existence.
Israel has the absolute right to existence. But those that have the
blood of babies on their hands refuse to let Israel exist.
The murder of the Fogel family is yet another example that Israel
cannot have peace as long as their neighbors hypocritically preach
peace in the daytime and practice murder in the nighttime.
And that's just the way it is.
