179. Our attitude concerning terrorism is well known. We do not approve of it. But the Albanian delegation could not fail to highlight the fact that the timing and manner of presentation of this question show that the aim is, in the name of "the struggle against terrorism", to strike at the national liberation struggles," the sacred right of peoples to use every means to fight to recover and safeguard their freedom and independence. It is clear that the United States and those who support it are endeavoring to use this question to distract world public opinion from the monstrous crimes which they are committing in Viet-Nam and throughout Indochina, the barbarous acts of terror perpetrated by Israel against the Palestinian people, Lebanon, and all the other Arab peoples, the savage racial oppression and genocide practiced in certain African countries, and so forth.
