Brewster, N.Y. – 07/17/2014 – Senator Greg Ball (R, C, I –Patterson), Chairman of the Senate Veterans, Homeland Security and Military Affairs Committee, issued the following statement in support of Israel.
“I strongly stand with our friends in Israel as they defend themselves from senseless terrorists attacks against their civilian populations throughout the country. Without reservation I support Israel’s right to defend herself using any means necessary to persevere, defend and protect civilian life. Hamas and its terrorist activity are not and shall never be acceptable to any freedom loving and humane modern day society. I extend my utmost support and encouragement to Prime Minister Netanyahu, the Israeli Security Cabinet, The IDF Forces and all Israelis who live every day in a constant state of war, and without hesitation bravely defend their right to exist,” said Senator Greg Ball.
