Background to War

The Israeli's clear advantage in the present struggle is that they do not desire, nor does their program incur, the death of Arabs. Their presence in Palestine calls for many adjustments; but it need not hinder the health and happiness of a single Arab. On the contrary, their industrial, political and scientific skills, can be of great value to their neighbors. To this end, which would be an organic beginning, both the Israelis and the West must shift their positions. The West must prove that its democracy, and its championing democracy abroad, are real. Israel must prove that it is not a satellite of any colonizing or exploiting power.
