The most complex and crucial issue of all in the Middle East today is the fate of the Palestinian Arabs and the West Bank. It is an explosive issue which will not go away. In an interview last July, Saudi Arabia's Oil Minister Sheik Ahmed Zaki Yamani warned that the United States must be prepared to "face the consequences "meaning a cutoff of Mideast oil unless it acts quickly to pressure Israel to allow the creation of a Palestinian homeland on the occupied West Bank of the Jordan River. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
