neighbors.
"Yet, I suspect that too many
people failed to recognize another
very real human factor in this his-
toric international political deve-
lopment. They failed to see and
understand the personal implica-
tions of that development on those
human beings who had lived in
Palestine prior to 1948, those peo

She added
''A generation has grown up in

Palestinians made clear that
they will no longer tolerate the in-

''Those refugee camps have be-
come emotional festering sores fur
many young Palestinians who right-
fully believe that the deplorable
conditions in which they were
raised must be drastically altered.
Their acts of desperation in recent
years have shocked us, perhaps
unnecessarily, for we should have
learned from our problems here
at home the inevitable result of
social injustice and poverty,"
