RESOLUTION
Honoring the members of the United States Armed Forces, the
intelligence community, and the Obama and Bush Administrations whose
dedicated service brought the murderous terrorist leader Osama bin
Laden to justice.
Whereas, for over two decades, the murderer Osama bin Laden and his
transnational terrorist network al Qaeda have menaced people's lives,
liberty and property throughout the world;
Whereas Osama bin Laden and his murderous network perpetrated the September 11,
2001, attacks, which resulted in the deaths of 2,752 innocent people in
New York City, 184 people at the Pentagon, and 45 passengers and crew
members aboard United Airlines Flight 93 in Stony Creek Township,
Pennsylvania;
Whereas the heinous criminal history of Osama bin Laden and his al Qaeda
terrorist network further involves hijackings, bombings, and murders of
American and allied civilians and military personnel, ranging from the
July 7, 2005, London bus bombings to the Madrid train bombings of March
11, 2004, to the bombings of the U.S.S. Cole and the United States
Embassies in Kenya and Tanzania;
Whereas, for his craven terrorist acts, Osama bin Laden was criminally charged
by the United States Department of Justice and indicted in United States
District Court for the Southern District of New York;
Whereas, after nearly a decade of courage, dedication, and perseverance by
members of the United States Armed Forces, the intelligence community,
and the Obama and Bush Administrations, a mission conducted in
Abbottabad, Pakistan, has brought Osama bin Laden to justice; and
Whereas the death of Osama bin Laden has not completed the eradication of his
murderous terrorist network and its cowardly cohorts: Now, therefore, be
it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) congratulates and salutes the members of the United
States Armed Forces, the intelligence community, and the Obama
and Bush Administrations for bringing Osama bin Laden to
justice;
(2) remembers the fallen and comforts the families
grievously wounded by the terrorist attacks of September 11,
2001, and by all Osama bin Laden and al Qaeda's other crimes;
and
(3) reaffirms the dedication of the United States to the
prompt and just eradication of al Qaeda and all terrorist
organizations and their cohorts, and to victory in the war for
freedom against terrorism.
