Other nations drive out thousands, even millions, of people and then1 is no refugee problem. Russia did il; Poland and ('zechoslovakia did it; Turkey drove oul a million Greeks, and Algeria a million frenchmen;' Indonesia threw oul heaven knows how many Chinese—and no one says a word about refugee's. But in the ease of Israel, the displaced Arabs have become' denial refugees. Kveryone insists that Israel musl take back'every single Arab. Arnold To.vnbce calls the displacement of the Arabs an atrocity greater than any committed by I he Nazis. Peace Terms Other nations when victorious on the battlefield dictate peace terms. lint when Israel is victorious it must sue for peace. Kveryone expects the .lews lo be the only real Christians in this world, Other nations when they are defeated survive and recover. But. should Israel be defeated it would bo destroyed. Had Nasser triumphed last June lie would have wiped Israel off the map, and no one would have lifted a finger to save the Jews.

The Iraqi Government has passed laws denying Jews their civil liberties, their freedom of movement, and the possibility of employment. The Jews of Iraq are under constant fear for their lives. The Iraqi authorities, and particularly the secret police, threaten tiioin even with murder." According to Mr. Tekoah, the Iraqi actions are the first sinco

No commitmeiif to the Jews by any government, including our own, is worth the paper it is written on. There is a cry of outrage all over the world when people die in Vietnam or when 1wo Negroes are executed in Rhodesia. Iiu!: when Hitler slaughtered Jews no one remonstrated with him. The Swedes, who are ready to break off diplomatic relations with America because of what, we do in Vietnam, did not let out a peep when Hitler was slaughtering Jews. They .sent. Hitler choice iron ore, and ball bearings, and serviced his troop trains to Norway. The Jews arc alone in the world. If Israel survives it will be solely because of Jewish efforts. And Jewish resources. Israel Must, Live Yet at this moment. Israel is our only reliable and unconditional ally. We eaii •rely more on Israel than Israel can rely on us. And one has onl/ to imagine what would have happened last summer had the Arabs and their Russian backers won the war to realize how vital the survival of Israel is lo America and Hie West in general. 1 have a,premonition that will not leave me; as it goes with Israel so will it RO with all of us. Should Israel perish the holocaust will be upon us. Israel must live! (Reprinted from the J(-wi!.h Herald Voice, courtesy of the Motion Post.)
at his Department's claim, quipped that the Liberty — to keep up with the changing position of the moon — would have had to sail right a c r o s s the sands of Sinai." Israel Pays McGaffin and Knoll said ''Untruth, which l e a k e d out soon enough, was that the ship was a spy vessel, equipped with elabo r a t e electronic surveillance gear and assigned by the National Security Agency, which specializes in breaking the military codes of other nations. Presumably, the Liberty was monitoring Israeli and Arab battlefield communications." I s r a e l paid the U.S. $3,323,500 in com-
pensation this week to the families of 34 Americans killed on the L i b e r t y last June 8. The Liberty was hit by jets and torpedo boats while in international waters 15,5 nautical miles off the Sinai c o a s t . Israel explained later that the attack resulted from the mistaken belief that the ship was Egyptian. The book asserted that when the c r i s i s grew w o r s e last spring, "President Johnson issued a flat directive to all members of his Administration to discuss no aspect of the situation with the press . . . Americans were left in the d a r k on the President's t h i n k i n g and the Government's plans."

By Mickey Gereiicfc I sit nt a typewriter on the morning of June 5, liiiiil and wonder what possible words of meaning can he written on this historic day. On June !i, l!)l!7 the State of Israel took up arms to defend itself against threats of destruction; On June 5, 1!)68 an American Presidential C a n d i d a t e was struck down by the bullet of a would-be assassin. At this writing the fate of both still hangs in the balance. There are no simple answers to the haunting questions of why men seek to destroy one another. Whether, by a nation or by an individual, there can he no justification for these abominable acts of violence. • W h a t can be done? How docs one find reasonable answers for illogicial problems? Must we justify the problem in order to supply the answer? On the front page of this paper Eric Hoffer describes the unreasonable position faced by the state of Israel. The reasonable answers afforded to other nations have been denied to Israel. "The Jews are alone in the world," writes Hoffer. "If Israel survives, it will be solely, because of Jewish efforts. And -Jewish resources." The alternatives arc clear. We can sit back hi righteous indienation, declaring "it Isn't fair," nncl watch Israel's certain defeat. Or we con act. We can offer the people of Israel the reEourccs for survival. The cam-
paign scorcbox on (he front page represents that elfcnl. If il is unreasonable that Israel's sole support should come from the hearts and checkbooks of free world Jewry; so he it. Our aid may not be enough, hut we have no alternative but to try. •

*
Much the same applies to the acts of violence which plague our nation. Discussions of effective gun control legislation have filled the television screens all morning. Is it not time to move from discussion to action? Would gun legislation have prevented the bullet which felled Robert F. Kennedy? Perhaps not. But can that justify our failure to enact such legislation? It may not be enough. We cannot outlaw the i n s a n i t y which leads men to violence. We may not be able to deter all those who are bent on destruction. Legislation may not bo enough; but we have no alternative but to try. r>

On this June 5, IDiifi, a shocked nation waits and prays for the recovery of Robert F. Kennedy, the victim of a senseless act of violence. On this June 5, lflfifl, a year after a victorious war, the people of Israel still work and pray for a reasonable peace. *

New York (JTAi — Senators Robert F. K e n n e d y, of New York, and Eugene J. McCarthy, of Minnesota, both candidates for the Democratic Presidential nomination, agreed in a nationwide telecast Saturday . night . that the United States must honor its commitments to Israel even though it s h o u l d scale down many of its commitments elsewhere in the world. Kennedy, reiterated his Portland, Ore. proposal of last week to send 50 Phantom jets to Israel. McCarthy said that if 50 jets were necessary to help Israel "rebuild the strength they lost in the most recent war . .'. I am for 50 jets." Tlie two Presidential aspirants made their remarks in reply to questions on the "Issues and Answers" program which originated in San Francisco. Kennedy was the first to refer to Israel. He said that the U.S. cannot continue to be a global policeman and intervene in internal disputes all over the world. But, he said, "I do think we have s o m e commitments around .the globe. I think we have a commitment to Israel for instance t h a t has to be kept."

He attributed the organization';, "lack of integrity" to "thu reactionary, dogmatic and actually mi Jewish tendencies of large1 !;ectionr. of the leadership." Dr. Mi;zvinsl:y in his prepared statement also disclosed the background ejf the forth;:o:r.:ng visit to this country of a delegation of Jewish religious leaders from the U.S.S.R head<-el by Chief Rabbi Yehuda Leib Levin of Moscow, He reported: Tlie invitation of the Soviet Jewish religious leaders was extended by the Council "through the official organs of the Soviet government." He said the Council's contact with Soviet officials' was denied by Richard Korn, president, of the Council, when the Soviet Embassy in Washington announced the forthcoming visit last April Hi. Dr. Me/.vinsky said the visit of the Soviet Jewish religions leaders "will lose much of it* significance and effectiveness if it eioe:; indeed materialize under the aegis of the American Council for Judaism."
