We must tell them this weekend that the United States. the United Kingdom. and France will act to honor this pledge. There is a fourth point. I think it is high time that our State Department review very carefully all our commitments on the PalestineArab refugees. We pay 70 percent of the support for the Arab refugee camps which are being used as recruitment centers for terrorist groups. I think the purpose of the refugee centers is highly distorted. and it is high time we phased out of that situation in some way. Let responsibility for that settlement rest where it should. though we would be more than willing. I am sure. to refinance the resettlement of these refugees from the Arab States. their present host. to any other part of the world where they may be peaceably settled. including the United States. where they would always be welcome. I am sure. Referring again to my third point. it would be preferable for the tripartite powersthat is. the three powers which entered into the agreement of May 1950. guaranteeing the armistice borders of Israel and the Arab Statesto act in concert. but failing that. each individual power. especially the United States. should give notice that it intends to live up to its commitments.
