The Arabs are stronger than ever before. Israel has yet to replace its losses from the 6day war last year. It is a wonder to me how. despite 20 years of battling Arab legions and political adversity. this tiny statespawned by a pathetic handful of refugees from Hitlers death camps--has nevertheless not only survived. but prospered. It is an inspiring event when a tiny countrydetermined to endure no more aggression. but unable to obtain guarantees of security from the great powersruns a small but swift steamroller over a whole gang of bigger and stronger antagonists. And there is something marvelous about the realization of a dreamof a land free from persecution. where shattered lives could be rebuilt on the land of ancient forefathers. where fertile fields could spring from desert sands. and where universities and industry could develop where before there was illiteracy and poverty.
