108 cosponsors

States that Dr. Mohamad “has become notorious over the years for his overt anti-Semitism and opposition to the State of Israel.” It resolves that the House “thoroughly repudiates the damaging rhetoric of the outgoing prime minister of Malaysia, Dr. Mahathir Mohamad, which embodies age-old stereotypes of Jewish global domination and grotesque anti-Semitism on an international scale.” Also calls on EU to condemn the remarks, deplores those in attendance at the Organization of the Islamic Conference where the remarks were made who support such statements by their silence, and affirms U.S. President George W. Bush for his rebuke of Dr Mohamad.
