Rev. Are
begins with
an account
of Israel's
opening
attack on
the
Palestinians,
an event
which took
place before
most
Americans
alive today
were born.
He quotes
the
distinguished
British
historian,
Arnold J.
Toynbee:
"The
treatment of
the
Palestinian
Arabs in
1947 (and
1948) was as
morally
indefensible
as the
slaughter of
six million
Jews by the
Nazis.
Though nor
comparable
in quantity
to the
crimes of
the Nazis,
it was
comparable
in quality."
