Later, however, our contemp subsided and we actually laughed. The letter was, in fact, s ridiculous it was funny. We realize the Arab supporter have a view much different thai ours and other pro-Israelis, and wi can respect that, but there ar< several points in their letter whici we feel compelled to argue against First of all, it isn't very likely tha many Americans view any was a just-not the Vietnam war and no the Middle East War. However what are Jews and Israels support; supposed to do when Israel is at tacked with unprovoke< agression? It is known the war wat begun by the Arabs. The lette: mentioned morality. Is starting war on the most holy of Jewisi days moral? Is is human? Ar< Jews around the world supposed ti sit back and twiddle their thumb: when the existence of theil "second" country is beinj threatened? The authors of the letter ex pressed doubts as to the distinatioi of the donations being collected foi the Israeli Emergency Fund. By a federal law, it is ~illegal foi Americans to send money foi defense of any foreign country. There seems, also, to be a belie: among the Arab students that this W nion per's duty to print nd raise hell." F. Storey, 3 Tribune Ellist of the century, died uerto Rico, hospital.

SIt's amazing that while speaking of the problem of morality, the pro Arab authors made no mention of the massive shipments of aid the Russians have poured into Egypt and Syria. Why don't the Arab students protest that? Is it moral to allow theee million people to be slaughtered if they fail to receive support from the United States? -Their letter appears to be the epitome of hypocracy.
