We have, however, never maintained that orthodox Jews are the most sublime and perfect of men. That would be ridiculous. Includes black-and-white headshot of Dr. Joshua Bloch, one of the authors.

1st Edition. Stapled, 4to. 22 pages ; 28 cm. Typescript (photocopy, as published) . "Presented at the Hearing of the Committee on Foreign Relations of the United States Senate on June 25, 1981." Professor Mallison was a longtime friend, and associate of Rabbi Elmer Berger. Together, they were able to win several concrete changes to US Foreign Policy, and shape the political narrative on Jewish-Arab relations in the middle east. It was because of his specialty in international law that he was sought out by Rabbi Elmer Berger, then director of the American Council for Judaism. The Council opposed the claim of the newly created State of Israel to speak for the Jewish People everywhere. Together Rabbi Berger and Professor Mallison persuaded the Department of State to write a letter stating that it does not regard the 'Jewish people' concept as a concept of international law.
