To the Editor:

After the second world war, the world map was redrawn to accommodate national self-determination of peoples. While the Israelis were early riders on this wave, it was not theirs alone; it is enshrined in the charter of the United Nations. To question this principal in the case of Israel and not of the other new states of the twentieth century seems strangely pointed.
