I believe the resolution to have been unsatisfactorily presented to Congress and the worldthrough worldwide revelation before congressional consultation. a dramatic Saturday session. urgent pleas for speed and unanimity. exaggerated justifications and evasive testimony. without any demonstration of critical need. Finally. I believe this resolutionand the time we have devoted to itto have been largely unnecessary in terms of the real problems in the Middle East. for the resolution offers solutions to neither the immediate crises of Gaza and Aqaba. nor the more longrange crises of Communist subversion. arms traffic. Suez. refugees. boundaries. and other factors in the continuing ArabIsraeli dispute. In short. it could well be argued that this entire undertaking was an unnecessary error from the time it was first conceived and submitted. Existing aid programs were already under way.
