: Letters to the Edito
PALESTINE TO THE ARABS
Editor, The Battalion:
I would like Jto answer Mr. Bob
Rosenthal's letter (Palestine?) in
The Battalion of November. 12.
First question raised by Mr.
Rosenthal was that my letter in
the November 10 issue was “void
of any consideration ofl fa<Hs.” It
was based ori facts to the persons
ow the Middle East and who
rhat-was going on there, es-
r during the war.
As an example, I would like to
piention the following incident to
curity. This democracy is
of Christianity and Islam,
are preached throughout! the
die East, j feel that the
are perfectly justified in
to allow the Jewish , n ^
settle in and share their homeland
I don't beileve that anyone wo lid
be expected to permit gupsta i

I wish to remind my friend
that during the, North African
battle, Arabian armies protected
the Su^z Canal. This was a
vital point in the armies’ trans
portation lifeline, especially dur
ing the Battle of Stalingrad.
These Arabian armies, were com
posed mainly of the Egyptian
Anti-Aircraft units. I AM ONE
OF THEM.
Mr. Rosenthal stated that:
