Additionally, there is mention of travel opportunities in Israel and new developments related to religion, oversight, and the last survivor of the Sobibor uprising dying at age 97 in Israel.

HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_032012.txt

The document discusses two topics: a historical agreement between the British and Arabs regarding Palestine's independence, and the proposed sale of weapons to Saudi Arabia by the US. The author argues that the British did not promise the Arabs independence in Palestine, but rather outlined areas Britain was prepared to cede in exchange for Arab help against the Turks. Regarding the arms deal with Saudi Arabia, the author contends that it is more about politics and economics than national security, and that both sides are being disingenuous.
