While offering Nasser our friendship and our aid. I believe we must make it unequivocally clear that we will not tolerate an Arab attack on the State of Israel. : I believe we should insist that Nasser abide by the Security Councils resolutions calling for freedom of navigation .for all nations in the Suez Canal. I believe we should urge the Arab leaders on every appropriate occasion to join with us and with the United Nations in a concerted effort to solve the Arab refugee problem. which. so long as it exists. will remain a constant source of tension and unrest. I believe we should embark on a deter.mined and sustained diplomatic effort to bring the Israel and Arab leaders to*gether. to halt the tragic arms race that .impoverishes and threatens them both. and to persuade them to join forces with us in a master plan designed to dramatically better the conditions of the peoples -of the southern Mediterranean. Only if we commit ourselves to such .a program. will the commemoration of Israels founding have real meaning for today and enduring significance for the future.
