Doug Burgum: We stand with our democratic ally Israel against Hamas

"The attack by Hamas terrorists on Israel is reprehensible, and the fact it occurred on a Jewish holiday is despicable. We stand with our democratic ally Israel while lifting up in prayer the victims of these horrific attacks," Burgum said. "We also pray for the safe return of the priests and parishioners from North Dakota congregations who are anxiously waiting to board flights home. Today we reached out to the U.S. State Department and spoke with Father Ackerman, offering to assist however possible to help ensure the safe return of those North Dakotans and all Americans wanting to return to U.S. soil."

Rick Becker: Stand with ally Israel, a beacon of stability in Middle East

A: In one of the most volatile regions in the world, Israel remains a beacon of stability. Time and time again, America has stood with her ally Israel against our mutual adversaries in the Middle East to maintain this fragile peace. I support Israel in its legal, historical, moral, and God-given right of self-governance and self-defense upon the entirety of its own lands, recognizing that Israel is neither an attacking force nor an occupier.
