George M. Weightman Interviews
Call Number: CE 344Format: 1/4 7 1/2 ipsProducers: Colin EdwardsCollection: Colin Edwards Collection
Criticizes the Lebanese government, and particularly the Maronite Christian Phalangist party, for collaborating with the US to thwart Palestinian Resistance in Lebanon. Brief translation of press conference given by Yasser Arafat in Syria on 20 October 1969 in which Arafat affirms the right of the Palestinians to fight against Israel and criticizes US involvement in undermining Palestinian guerillas in Lebanon. Arafat also discusses the vulnerability of Arab regimes to their populace because of their support of the Palestinians.
American Sociologist George M. Weightman discusses how convoluted and unstable Lebanese politics are because of religious sectarianism. Criticizes the unchecked power of Lebanese President Gemayel for his collaboration with the US and the unrepresentative nature of the composition of the Lebanese parliament. Also exposes the sectarianism of political parties in Lebanon. Criticizes the racism and classism of Phalangists in Lebanon.
Weightman distinguishes between Syrian and Iraqi Ba’athist parties and the challenges by minorities and Israel each face. Argues that Syria is more responsible to its people’s demands than either Lebanon or Israel who claim to be democracies. Argues Syria is right to believe that it will be attacked because of Israelis historical hostility. Criticizes the New York Times for propagating the notion that Israel is in danger of being attacked “again” as it falsely claims it was during the 1967 War.
