Expresses the sense of the House of Representatives that until the governments of Libya and Egypt formally apologize to the United States and condemn in the strongest possible terms the savage attacks on U.S. diplomats in Benghazi, Libya, and Cairo, Egypt, and assure the safety of U.S. diplomats in Libya and Egypt, consistent with the 1961 Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations and the 1963 Vienna Convention on Consular Relations, the President should immediately suspend all U.S. foreign assistance to the governments of such countries.
