The United Nations must arrange firm guarantees safeguarding Israel, before the latter can be expected to withdraw from the “security positions” it still holds in Gaza and Sinai, the Labor Zionist Organization of America declared in a resolution adopted here.
These guarantees, the resolution states, should provide: 1. That the Strait of Tiran shall not again be barred to the shipping of Israel and other nations engaged in peaceful commerce with it, and that Israel shall have free passage through the Suez Canal; 2. That Gaza, which is not and has never been a part of Egyptian territory, shall not again become a base for the training, direction and dispatch of the murderous Fedayeen bands; 3. That Egyptian military forces and arms depots shall not again menace Israel in the Sinai desert.
