I thought he (General Dayan) handled all situations ably and commendably Had General Dayan been incapable of handling any questions or situation I can see the necessity of a protective umbrella over him I hope student officials officiating at such functions will give those in the listening group who wish to hear the speaker’s view on the statement or question a chance to hear those views Dawuda Tsalhatu Gowon 585-44-62- 77 Logan's growning up Editor Student Life: Fighting for survival in Logan Utah WHO’S KIDDING WHO!! Those involved probably are not even aware of who we are Remember the yellow VW pulling out of a parking space in the UC parking lot? My husband an I were leaving the campus at 9:30 am for town As we pulled out a blue compact (maybe a pinto) was waiting for the space He pulled up so close that we had little room to back up At this same time a brown sedan (cougar) came from the other direction and pulled right into the parking space As we drove away the blue car pulled right up to the brown car and started honking his horn have seen animal instincts displayed on the LA freeways during rush hour fighting for survival I never thought I’d see the day when this was happening I in LOGAN YOU CONGRATULATIONS REACHED JUST HAVE PHASE ANOTHER GROWING UP!!!

In this respect there is no difference between Mormon and Palestinian history And I am quick to add no difference in these respects from much of history All three groupings of human beings have suffered from the most terrible expressions of racial and religious chauvinism All three groups have been made “the Jewish enemy” This is the historical reality the questions are: Why does it happen? Who benefits from it? What is the solution to the problem? On an individual level racial chauvinism and its most terrible I expression facism results think when a person has such a of low opinion or that they are driven (unconsciously) to make another human being so inferior that they can then feel somewhat good about themselves It is maintained by ignorance and fed with strong feelings of inferiority In the Middle East the individuals who benefit from the racist Zionist movement are: 1) the Zionist leadership who enjoy comfortable and privileged lives and positions of power 2) the US Government and big business interests especially oil As Dayan indicated in his speech the US doesn’t want to send its troops to be the world’s police force (hopefully Vietnam will be the last time the American people will let that happen) just send us the tanks planes and guns and we’ll do it for you The US Government is always happy to get someone else to do its dirty work as world cop and the it i i i i a a a a a to CHICAGO $17673 was-£23$T73’N- SALT LAKE wasS32-M-tf-- SALT LAKE was J&30-5rH- T I to NEW YORK (Kennedy) NOW $25810 a a to WASHINGTON (National) NOW reserve $24110 st©w! Ph753-°77- 2 does not compare and in of Dayan’s that the demonstration by the peaceful of democratic a free supporters and secular Palestine did a lot to force the subdued tone of Dayan’s speech Chauvinism in whatever form it rears its ugly head must be challenged by all people who recognize it for the irrational and dangerous destructive human behavior that it is In a certain sense this is what the Committee for the Truth About Palestine protest and leaflet was all about Answering chauvinism with chauvinism is not the answer To all those who heard the Palestinian speaker Dr Sayegh in his reply to Dayan the obvious answer is humanity before all other distinctions To all of us who put ourselves or our group - be it religious nationalistic sexual or racial ahead of our humanity I hope we can struggle with it and throw it off in our own selves and in addition that we can join with other human beings to struggle against and be done with it in the society and on the planet that we all share If we don’t do it it will destory us as individuals and it will destory us as a species and Tossed Green Salad ALL FOR ONLY Includes: Special Hamburger 75k Tossed green Salad 4 5£ OFFER GOOD ONLY WITH COUPON Expires Nov 10 1974 mo We 1 SIlftKSilSWKS BIS UK 5 Sk il SIS J 4 SitUS m ! 890 NORTH MAIN LOGAN in hiMA f n i SALT LAKE racist ideology fact I think had Dayan realized the mood of the audience before hand we would have heard a war more racist much that likely mongering speech would have had the majority clapping and whistling even more vigorously than in the question and answer period It is likely I think rjgrfrJrrrrfrrrrrJfJrJrJrJpJrfgp 1 i i (roundtrip) interests of the US rulers It disturbed me to see that most of the people in the Fine Arts Center were being sucked into the support of Zionist policy and action The Zionists unlike the Mormons did not have a lightly populated area readily available to move into To be sure the Mormons like other white settlers had their racist effect on the local Indian populations but 1 12th lf Arab peoples of the Middle East especially if the Arab peoples decide to do something not in the Jewish people in occupied Palestine (Israel) are being suckered into being cannon fodder for this dirty work by their 0 DEC his-herse- self-ima- magnitude at least with the oppression suffered by the two million plus Palestinians who were driven into refugee camps where they remain to this day For the Israeli Zionists the solution was to become racial and religious chauvinists themselves and to cast the Palestinians as the inferior enemy and to drive them from their land There has never been a war between human beings in which the public leaders did not exploit and support individual and collective chauvinism and-o- r facism This is what Dayan’s speech was all about gathering support for the racist Zionist war machine to be used against the 1 e a Espoused Committee presents: Saturday Night at the Movies a a a See Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid Afterwards Make Your own Ice-Crea- m ui -- a Sundae Drawing for free movie tickets Sat Nov 16 6:30 showing only $150 per couple - For married students Price includes movie & Ice Cream Tickets available at Info Desk a a a a a a a a |
