America, or any other country, would never tolerate artillery attacks across their borders by "liberation" forces bringing death and destruc- tion to people, farms and factories and allow their country to be paralyzed. The Jewish state also has the right of self-defense. The Palestine Liberation Organization was transformed from a ter- rorist gang into a terrorist army by a massive military buildup supplied by the Soviets and paid for by Saudi Arabia and Libya — intended for the liquidation of Israel. CHARLES GERSHENSON Wayne State University Board of Governors in 1963, on which he served for a year, and he served for sev- eral terms on the Michigan Higher Education Authority.

Anger is a short madness. The so-called "Palestinian" Arabs have been used by the Soviets and most of the Arab states in their war-against-Jews. By language, _his-- tory and culture any Arab state, including Jordan —the Arab Palestine — is a homeland for those who call themselves "Palestinians." • PEACE FOR LEBANON by restoring to her people freedom, independence and sovereignty over their own land. Israel lived at peace with Lebanon until Lebanon was infested by the PLO and occupied by the Syrians bringing ruin to their country. Those few thousand terrorists that overwhelmed Lebanon are closely con- nected to the Soviets. The PLO and the Syrians are detested, hated and feared throughout .Lebanon. • PEACE FOR WESTERN EUROPE & LATIN AMERICA from terrorists trained and outfitted with deadly weapons by the PLO in Lebanon The Turk, Mehmet Ali Agca, who shot the Pope, trained for 40 days in a terrorist camp near Beirut. The Italian Red Brigade that murdered Italian Prime Minister Moro received their supplies from the PLO. The United Nations so-called refugee camps, financed in the most part by the U.S., are the military bases of the terrorists in Lebanon. ZOA ACTION GUIDELINE YOUR HELP IS NEEDED .. . • For real peace in the Middle East, Lebanon must never again be allowed to be the center of international terrorism. • It would be unjust to Israel and the people of Lebanon to try to force an Israeli withdrawal that would leave Lebanon still in the hands of those Soviet agents, the PLO and Syria. The PLO must be completely disarmed and Syrian forces withdrawn so Lebanon can again be a free nation. The Administration must not reward the PLO for laying down their arms by granting them recognition — thereby legitimizing the at- rocities they inflicted on innocent people in their war against the Jewish people.
