The cry
    for the national home for the Jews does not make much appeal to me. The
    sanction for it is sought in the Bible and the tenacity with which the Jews
    have hankered after return to Palestine. Why should they not, like other
    peoples of the earth, make that country their home where they are born and
    where they earn their livelihood?</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.kamat.com/mmgandhi/mideast.htm"><P>Palestine belongs to the Arabs in the same sense that England belongs to
    the English or France to the French. It is wrong and inhuman to impose the
    Jews on the Arabs. What is going on in Palestine today cannot be justified
    by any moral code of conduct. The mandates have no sanction but that of the
    last war. Surely it would be a crime against humanity to reduce the proud
    Arabs so that Palestine can be restored to the Jews partly or wholly as
    their national home.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.kamat.com/mmgandhi/mideast.htm">The nobler course would be to insist on a just treatment of the Jews
    wherever they are born and bred</blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/06460820-3D05-4DF4-8700-7E43C0D95D30/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content8.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
