By doing so we not only would preserve Israel against attack and aggression. but at the same time we would strengthen the arm of the United Nations as the agency of law. order. and peace in the world. Mr. President. we should also make It clear that the truce is not to be conditioned upon any contingency which Is not consistent with the full sovereignty and independence of the state and the people of Israel. that is to say. it must not be conditioned by anybody or any agency upon the new Jewish state being denied the emphasis of proper sovereignty to determine the conditions of immigration and in other respects to act as any sovereign state is expected to act to determine its own policy and its own destiny with respect to such internal matters as that. I think it should be made clear at the earliest possible time that the United Nations has prescribed the boundaries of the state of Israel. and that if changes are to be made they will have to be made with the concurrence not only of the United Nations. but also of Israel. I think no real peace can prevail unless the boundaries are changed in the way that the boundaries of any sovereign people might be changed. and in no other way.
