The Polish Jewish Ex-Servicemen’s Association has sent a protest to the Polish government over the decision to permit the Palestine Liberation Organization to open an office in Warsaw. The letter, addressed to the Polish Prime Minister, stressed that the PLO is dedicated to the destruction of Israel, a member of the United Nations whose independence was originally supported by Poland. The news about the PLO’s office in Warsaw coincided with a visit to the Polish capital by Farouk Kaddoumi, head of the PLO’s political department.
