Based in Washington, D.C., FRC Action is the legislative affiliate of Family Research Council, a nonprofit research and educational organization founded in 1983 and dedicated to articulating and advancing a family-centered philosophy of public life. Lt. Gen. (Ret.) William G. "Jerry" Boykin serves as Family Research Council's Executive Vice President. He was one of the original members of the U.S. Army's Delta Force. He was privileged to ultimately command these elite warriors in combat operations. Later, Jerry Boykin commanded all the Army's Green Berets as well as the Special Warfare Center and School. In all, Lt. Gen. Boykin spent 36 years in the army, serving his last four years as the Deputy Undersecretary of Defense for Intelligence. |
After Iran's attack on Israel last week, tensions in the Middle East are the highest they have been in decades. How the United States responds to Iran's attack is massively significant -- politically, militarily, and even spiritually.
Family Research Council Action (FRC Action) has been vocal in our support for Israel.
Thanks to our supporters, we were able to collect tens of thousands of signatures and deliver them to Congress, urging them to withhold funding from United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA). UNRWA's legitimacy as a relief agency was critically compromised when it was discovered that many of its employees either directly supported the October 7 attacks on Israel or have close ties to Hamas. Thankfully, Congress listened and suspended funding for UNRWA until 2025.
Also, when Iran attacked Israel, our chairman, Tony Perkins, sent out an emergency alert urging prayer for Israel.
The United States must stand strong by our ally Israel during its fight for existence. I was grateful to hear that our nation's military assisted in shooting down some of Iran's drones before they hit Israel. Of the 100 ballistic missiles, 30 cruise missiles, and more than 150 explosive drones, 99 percent were intercepted. Praise God!
