_r. President. the wanton killing of Palestinian men. women. and children in the Sabra and Shatila Refugee Camps by Christian Lebanese militia was a very tragic occurrencean occurrence which horrified us all. It has horrified the people of Israel. and I know that it has horrified my friends in the Jewish community in this country. It should be pointed out that the debate over whether or not this tragedy could have been avoided. or the inquiry into why it was allowed to happen. is taking place where it should appropriately take placein Israel itself. Unfortunately. the wrath of the international community has come down almost solely upon the head of Israel.
