Support of Israel Against Existential Threat Resolution of 2013
CONCURRENT RESOLUTION
Expressing the sense of Congress that the United States should ensure that Israel is able to adequately address an existential Iranian nuclear threat and to support Israel's right to respond to the potential threat of a Syrian S–300 air defense system.
Sec. 2 Sense of Congress on support to Israel to address Iranian and Syrian threats
It is the sense of Congress that—
the United States should ensure that Israel, as a critical United States ally, is able to adequately address an existential Iranian nuclear threat, and the Secretary of Defense should seek related opportunities for defense cooperation and partnership on military capabilities where appropriate; and
the delivery of the S–300 air defense system to Syria would pose a grave risk to Israel, and the United States supports Israel's right to respond to this grave threat as needed.
