A speech given by Abba Eban about the status of Israel in the eyes of the world, particularly with regard to the Arab-Israeli conflict, and the need for support of the state amongst the world's nations. "At the very center of our discussion of the Arab-Israel tension there stands the overriding issue of international equity. Some propaganda which is put about would have you believe that the Arab states are entitled to an air of grievance or of injury, as though history in its broad movements has done ill by them; as though Israel has been singled out for favoritism in the Middle East; as though Israel alone has inherited the great boon and the challenge of sovereignty which has been denied to other people. " Abba Eban, known for his eloquent oratory, was "Israeli Foreign Affairs Minister, Education Minister, Deputy Prime Minister, and ambassador to the United States and to the United Nations. He was also Vice President of the United Nations General Assembly" (Wikipedia, 2016) . SUBJECT(S) : International relations, Israel relations, Middle East politics.
