IRAN ARMS SHIPMENT
(Mr. HOLDING asked and was given permission to address the House for

minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. HOLDING. Madam Speaker, last week we once again saw what Prime
Minister Netanyahu correctly described as ``the true face of Iran.''
After Israeli Defense Forces intercepted an illicit shipment of
rockets, bullets, and mortars reportedly bound for Hamas fighters in
Gaza, Israel was able to publicly show how Iran continues to fund and
supply terrorism across the globe.
This operation also demonstrated Israel's inherent right and need to
defend its people and homeland from neighboring terror groups. Madam
Speaker, while the administration is quick to negotiate terms of a
nuclear deal with the regime in Tehran, last week's event should serve
as yet another stark reminder of whom this administration is really
dealing with, but more importantly, whom they are choosing to trust.
While the face of the regime and some of their rhetoric has changed,
Madam Speaker, it is clear that the Iranian regime's true intentions
and end game has not.
