1t can be readily understood
that the refugees are being
used as political tools. Distin-

sight of so many people living in
tents instead of houses, squatting

bodies are full of vermin, a fate
from which the Palestine refu-
gee" has been mercifully snatched
by an arch enemy of Western
civilization, the Grand Protector,
the international villain, Hail
Amin al-Husayni, the ex-Mufti of
Jerusalem, who, with the help of
the higher Arab Committee, or
dered the Arabs to leave their
homes and flee to neighboring
countries 'for short time, until
the united Arab armies cast the
Jews into the sea-"
Fury and Fancy
That the Arab leaders constant
ly use their own people as tools
and stooges for the maintenance
of a status quo, and in order to
further their political and nation
alistic ambitions, should be clear
to every impartial student of Mid
die Eastern affairs. In the Lee
banon and in Iraq, where I spent
a great deal of time discussing
internal and external problems
with numerous prominent leaders,
l found an almost dedicated de-
termination to divert the atten-
ton of the miserably unhappy
masses from the real source Of
their plight. Any and every ex-
cuse and pretext is pounced upon
in order. to achieve that purpose.
An endless struggle for power
and even greater riches is waged
between factions and families Of
the ruling classes. The price al
ways remains the same: The COM
plete exploitation of the native.
The fury and hatred deliberately
engendered against the Jews in
their own countries and against
the Goliath" Israel, is just an
other variation of the unending
diatribe against Britain, til e
U.S.A., and other imaginary and
hypothetical monsters.
The Arabs have little cause for
grievance against the West; dur
ing the last few decades they have
gained independence over an area
of one and one-half millions of
square miles, yet they wish the
world to believe that the eight
thousand square miles conceded
to Israel by the United Nations
represent an injustice of such
magnitude to them, that all their
thoughts and actions must be in
fluenced by it.
