Latin America. and the Congo. It is becoming almost the tenor of United States foreign policy that we cannot get everyone to like us and we cannot get everyone to agree with us. Obviously it is impossible. by some process of obtaining popularity. to have all other countries agree with the positions our country takesfor instance. in regard to Berlin or in regard to repatriating refugees to Israel. Obviously our country must adopt the proper policy in regard to all such difficult problems. because the proper policy is the only means by which to avoid the subversion of the free world. The contribution made by my colleague is an outstanding example of our determination to establish the proper policy. Of course we could. on the other hand. follow a policy which could please the Arabs. no doubt. by favoring repatriation of the refugees to Israel whatever it might do to Israels security and independence. but obviously that would be a colossal mistake on the part of the United States. The policy for which we speak is one which. if consistently followed. will lead to world stability. instead of having the world go further down into the abyss. So I am very grateful to my colleague for joining with me in helping develop a little further this concept.
