Our guarantees will permit Israel to borrow $400 million. That money will go into Israels treasury. Our language requires that moneythat particular pile of dollar billsto be used only for housing new immigrants. But what keeps Israel from taking $400 million of its own money. that it would otherwise use for its housing program. and now use it elsewhere? I do not see anything that would prevent Israel from doing just that. I presume this is a realnot artificialconcern. I know that Israel will spend more than $400 million of its own funds for immigrant housingno doubt about it. They have a big job. big responsibility. and they are trying to meet it. I also happen to think that Israels commitment to the resettlement program is so strong that it will find the money to implement it. no matter what we do.
