It has come to pass and the words, phrases and news reports only shown in the America are by the book responses and part of the plan to sway the American public at the expense of the Palestinian people. 58 pages. Insured post. Regardless of opinion on the matter, this monograph presents and provides a Palestinian and Arab perspective and points of contention on the slanted spun information served to the West and specifically America. While doing this, the author falls within the establishment perspective of the West, evidenced by his educational and professional pedigree. Fayez Sayegh was born in 1922 in Kharaba, Syria, where his father was a Presbyterian minister. He grew up in Tiberias on the Sea of Galilee in what was then Palestine. He received his B.A. and M. A. at the American University of Beirut, Lebanon; and his Ph. D. at Georgetown University, Washington D. C. He was a visiting lecturer in Political Science at Yale; a visiting associate professor of Political Science and Philosophy at Stanford; and Professor of International Studies at Macalester College. Later, he was a fellow at St. Anthony's College, Oxford. Sayegh published several other books and monographs including: "The Palestinian Refugees; The Arab-Israeli Conflict; The Record of Israel at the United Nations; and, The Hammarskjold Proposals." Sayegh was President of the Palestine Arab Congress and Honorary Chairman of the Institute of Arab-American Affairs. He was also 'Charge d'Affaires' of the Arab States Delegations' Office at the U. N.; Counsellor of the Yemen Delegation to the U. N.; and Advisor to the Delegation of Lebanon to the U. N. Finally, he founded the Research Center of the Palestine Liberation Organization; and served as member of its Executive Committee. Sayegh died in 1980 from a heart attack while in New York City at the rather young age of 58. Interestingly, he died the same night and in the same city that John Lennon was slain, Tuesday, December 9th. Also, of note is that it is rather difficult to pin down the exact date as rarely mentioned, but rather simply as December, 1980. At the time, Sayegh was a senior adviser to the Foreign Ministry of Kuwait. He had been the principal author of the 1975 U.N. resolution denouncing Zionism as a form of racism. This resolution denouncing Zionism was passed by the General Assembly on Nov. 10, 1975 by a vote of 72 to 35 with 32 abstentions and three delegations absent. It defined Zionism as a "form of racism and racial discrimination." The vote was denounced by Israel, the United States and France. Dr. Sayegh said that the resolution he authored was in line with an earlier U.N. resolution on racial discrimination that had denounced "distinction, exclusion, restriction or preference based on national or ethnic origin." Zionism, he said, was a movement which manifests itself by "excluding some people on the basis of their being non-Jews and including others on the basis of their being Jews -- Jewishness being defined officially as an ethnic and not strictly religious definition."
