Israel Envoy Hits UN Commission
on Lack of Concern for Human Rights

UNITED NATIONS (JTA) —
Moshe Leshem, the Israel delegate
to the Economic and Social Coun-
cil. criticized the UN's Human
Rights Commission for being more
concerned with "throwing stones'
than engendering respect for hu-
man rights.
Delegates from the Soviet Union
and Arab states to the ECOSOC's •
social action committee had as-
sailed Monday Israel's policy in
the occupied territories as violat-
ing human rights.
Referring to this, Leshern said
the violations of human rights
were the concern of his delega-
tion wherever they occurred and
added that Israel continues to call
for the release of the "remnants"
of the Jewish communities in Iraq,
Syria and Egypt. "Deprivation and
chicanery had turned their lives
into a nightmare, and their only
hope lay in escape," he declared.
Leshem said the behavior of the
Arab delegates to the ECOSOC re-
vealed that they considered Israel
a "non-nation." Referring to the
occupied territories, the Israeli
delegate said there was no way
to change the situation except by
mutual consent.
He recalled that Abba Eban, Is-
rael's foreign minister, had stated
that the question was not one of
occupation but of whether the
Arabs would abandon the road of
terror and hate for one leading
to peace.
Leshem, speaking about the Jews
in the Soviet Union, said the USSR
would be acting more in concert
with the declaration of Human
Rights if it permitted its Jewish
citizens who wished to leave to
do so. He said those who sought
to leave faced imprisonment but
despite this prospect hundreds
have tried to emigrate.
Amre Mahrnoud Moussa, the
Egyptian observer at the ECOSOC

meeting, said Israel had no right
to speak for world Jewry, that
Egypt spoke for "Egyptians of Jew-
ish faith."
Moussa added that Egypt would
continue to oppose Israel and
would liberate the occupied lands
whatever the cost might be. Haste
Calovski of Yugoslavia stated that
Israel had violated the articles of
the Geneva Convention and that
the end of violations of human
rights in the occupied territories
would occur when Israel withdrew
from those territories. The Tunis-
ian delegate, Rachid Driss, charged
Israel with major violations of UN
regulations in the territories and
said she had shown "arrogance
and scorn" toward the three-man
committee, which visited some
dozen capitals in the Middle East
and Europe, taking testimony from
witnessess. A number of wham
were discredited, has not been al-
lowed into Israel. The Israeli gov-
ernment said the committee was
one-sidedly investigating Arab con-
ditions without investigating condi-
tions of Jews in Arab countries.
The ECOSOC social action com-
mittee approved draft resolutions,
including one for the punishment
of war criminals and with equality
in the administration of justice.
Nikolai Tarassov, the Soviet
delegate, contended that Jews had
been permitted to emigrate but
that some of them asked the So-
viet government to allow them to
return because of "intolerable con-
ditions" in Israel. He also denied
there was discrimination against
Jews in the Soviet Union.

defense burden.
Joseph Saphir, minister of com-
merce and industry, and Joseph
Burg, minister of social welfare,

ties from coast to coast in behalf
of the Israel Bonds.

Bond meetings in several cities. 1
