I think anyone who feels that the United States is not concerned with this problem simply does not know what the facts are. I would commend to any of the Senators concerned with this problem that they meet with former Ambassador and now Assistant Secretary of State Joseph Sisco. and get briefed on some of the developments which are occurring in the Middle East situtation. which do give some hope for at least some progress being made toward trying to accomplish a more permanent and lasting situation there. particularly insofar as Egypt and Israel are concerned. I also commend to the Members of the Senate who are concerned with this problem an article published in the spring issue of Foreign Affairs Quarterly. written by Prime Minister Golda Meir. which goes into the entire historic background of the problems of Israel. its boundaries. and its security. and particularly goes into the question raised this morning by both of the distinguished Senators as to the origin and status of the refugee camps. It certainly is clear. and I think all admit. as does the author of the article. the distinguished Prime Minister of Israel. and a solution of the refugee problem must be a part of any longrange. meaningful solution of the problems of the Middle East. But to merely speak of the camps. and describe the very difficult conditions of those who live in them. and the history of the camps. and to appear to lay the blame solely on Israel for the existence of these camps. is certainly not an accurate historical portrayal. I have been to the camps myself and examined them. some years ago it is true. but there has been very little change in the situation since then. unfortunatelynot.
