                           OCCUPIED TERRITORY

  (Mr. GOHMERT asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mr. GOHMERT. President Obama has indicated before that, basically, 
Israel needs to not be occupying land that was acquired during war. 
Yesterday, to the U.N. he said that a big part of the goal is this: a 
viable, independent Palestinian state with contiguous territory that 
ends the occupation that began in 1967 and realizes the potential of 
the Palestinian people. Well, he has also indicated this Nation, the 
United States, will not be hypocritical any longer around the world.
  Terrible news this is for California--all of California, Arizona, 
Utah, Nevada, most of New Mexico, Colorado, and Wyoming, because it 
means you're about to be given back to Mexico, territory that we 
acquired in 1848 as a result of a war.
