Present: Senator Abourezk. Staff present: Wendy Grieder, legislative assistant. Senator Abourezk. The hearing will come to order. Before I make an opening statement I would like to make an announcement. The hearings tomorrow will be held in a different room on this floor at 10 o´clock in the morning in room 6226. It is just down the hall on the same floor of this building. The witnesses tomorrow will be Mr. Salim Tamari, professor of sociology at Birzeit University, and Mr. Ibrahim Dakkak, an engineer by profession and a resident of Jerusalem who has specialized in research on the status of Jerusalem. Opening Statement of Senator Abourezk This is a public hearing by the Senate Judiciary´s Subcommittee on Immigration and Refugees. This subcommittee has as its responsibility the problems of refugees, and nowhere is there a greater group of refugees existing than in the Middle East. Some 3 million Palestinian refugees comprise the Palestinian diaspora, a result of having been driven from their homeland in 1948 by the military forces of what is now the State of Israel. Many of these are double refugees, having been driven out of Palestine in 1948 and again fleeing in 1967 when Israel further expanded as a result of the war in June of that year. The issue facing the U.S. Government at this time is how we will use our influence to bring the parties involved in the Middle East conflict to a reasonable and just settlement of the controversy. A key to that settlement of whether or not the Palestinian refugees will eventually be able to establish a state of their own, of a kind of which they were deprived by the acquisition by force of arms of their lands by Israel in 1948.
