...editorial goes on to assert blandly that United States and United Nations action would be taken against Arab aggressors in the event of their swarming across Israel's borders--something every Arab dictator has sworn to do ... We should all not the small size of the Israeli state. Within hours, far shorter time than it would take a U.N. or U.S. force to be fighting ... Israel would no longer remain on the map. Without weapons for defense she could not face the blitzkrieg of Soviet war machines...

The original Cave One was not relocated until 1949, when the Arab Legion undertook the search. Gradually the discoveries were investigated by trained archeologists. Lankester Harding, of the Department of Antiquities, and Pere de Vaux, of the French School of Archeology in Jerusalem, jointly assumed control. In Cave One alone, they found 600 scroll fragments...
