lli'-\T QUESTION CANf'DT BE ANSWEREn UNT IL h£ ARE WILLING TO UNDERSTAND \~T IS TI£

REALllY (f CDNFLICTlf\E CLAWS IN TI-IE MIDDLE EAST.

NATURE OF THE CONELi CT

I 00 NOT BELIEVE THAT THE CONFLI CT IS PREEMINENTLY p, ca~FLICT OVER TERRITORY AT 1-U. THE Pf{SENT SITUATION REVOLVES ARJUND TERRITORIJl QAIMS_, BUT THE LARJER ISSUES

Af{ rDT ABOUT H1£8E ISRAEL EXISTS_, BUT l~IBIER SHE SHOULD EXIST AT ALL_, AND TI-~

GO VERY DEEPLY INTO THE NATURE OF ISLAM ITSELF. 1HE EFFORT IN 1948 TO DESOOY TI1E

NEW STATE OF !SRA.EL WAS NOT A WAR FOR TERRITORY- IT HAS NOT A WAR TO ESTABLISH A (

PALESTINIAN STATE. IT HAS A JIHAD--A HClY WAR. AND 1DffiY_, THE CHARTER OF THE

P.L.O. REFLECTS THE SAME IMPERATIVE: THE DESTRUCTION OF ISRAEL IS tfff A PCllTICAL

OBJECTIVE-- IT IS A HOLY DBLIGL\TION. THE EFFORT OF OUR FDLICY-r.v\KERS-TO BE

EVEN-HANDED_, TO SEE BOTH SIIES-OOESN'T HAVE MUCH APPLICABILilY IN THffiE CIRCLM-

STJVIJCES. YOU HAVE A ~~N wro SAYS I HAVE A RIGHT TO LIVL AND A[)THER ML\N 1~0

SAYS I HAVE A RIGHT TO KILL HIM_, AND YOU SIT PACK AND SAY_, WELL t'DH LET'S LOOK

AT OOTH SIDES. LET'S BE EVEN-HMIDED. NO WONDER OUR DIPLQ\V\CY IS NOT TAKEN

SERIOUSLY.

HOW IMFDRTANT_, REALLY_, IS nns 9JESTION OF TERRITORY? ffiNSIDER JORDJVIJ.

IliE JORDffl !ANS

JORUL\N CLAIMS SOVEREIGmY OVER THE WEST MNK. 1HE CLAIM IS PJ\SED ON THE FACT 1HAT SHE CAPTURED THE LAND IN 1HE EFFORT TO IESOOY ISRAEL IN 1948.. JORDAN HERSELF HAS AN INTERESTING HISTORY. SHE WAS CPEATED BY THE STRJKE OF WINSTON CHURCHill'S PHJ., our OF 1HE ~ATE TERRITORY THAT WAS SET ASIIE BY THE BALFOUR DECLAAATION AS A JEWISH HQVELPND.

AND Ynf{ WAS SHE CREATED? BECAUSE 1HE HASH81ITE FPMILY HAD PEEN 1HR0\1t~ OUT OF 11-IEIR LAND BY THE FATHER OF THE PRESENT KING OF SAUDI ARABIA. THE BRITISH HAD A SPAft KING ON THEIR HJWDS AND AN OPPORTUNITY TO RETAIN THEIR INFWENCE IN THE MIDDLE EAST BY SETTING HIM UP WITH A f'EJJ KINGIXJlf--hHICH IS PRESENT DAY JORDAN. IT IS aJT OF JUST SUCH WACKY RJST-CClONIAL 20rH CENTURY Ml\C:HHJJ\TIOMS f'lS TIHS THAT TODAY'S ( BURNING ARAB f'!l\TI(}JALISM WAS CREATED.

IT IS ASSERTED TOUA.Y THL\T THE hfST MNK ~~ SHJULD BECO''E A PA!£STINIAN STATE. \iMAT IS lHE HISTORICftl PfALITY OF A PAl£STINiftN STATE? THERE IS t{)NE. THERE NEVER WAS A PALESTINIAN STATE.
