Anger

The Lebanese delegate at a meeting of the ISC research and information commission left the session In anger. He strode from the hall during the debate on the Palestinian refugees, a debate which developed into a severely partisan argument between the conflicting Israeli and Arab delegations.

He said outside the meeting, "I am not against Israel, I am not against the Jews. But there Is a problem—an entire problem which must be investigated by this commission. I refuse to vote on this resolution."

The resolution a compromise worked out by RIC between conflicting resolutions presented by the Israeli and Palestinian delegations, read, "the eleventh ISC, considering the tensions prevailing in the Middle East, the UN resolutions on Palestine and Israel and the conditions of the refugees in the Middle East, mandates RIC to study the root causes of the present situation and observing the principles embodied in the universal declaration of human rights in the countries concerned, to help promote peace In the Middle East."
