The American Conservative Union stands shoulder-to-shoulder with our close ally Israel, and strongly condemns the more than 900 rocket attacks and other acts of terrorism against Israel over the last several days. The United States and the international community must stand clearly and resolutely with Israel and hold Palestinian terror groups including Hamas along with the Palestinian Authority accountable for their terror activities. Israel has every right to act in self-defense and protect its national sovereignty. Our thoughts and prayers are with the people of Israel.
