On 11 December 1948 the General Assembly discussed Bernadotte's report and placed a non-binding resolve: "that refugees wishing to return to their homes and live at peace with their neighbour should be permitted to do so at the earliest practicable date."

Famous quotes containing the words positions and/or return:

    What arouses the indignation of the honest satirist is not, unless the man is a prig, the fact that people in positions of power or influence behave idiotically, or even that they behave wickedly. It is that they conspire successfully to impose upon the public a picture of themselves as so very sagacious, honest and well-intentioned.
    Claud Cockburn (1904–1981)

    Lise: Look, monsieur, I don’t know what type of girl you think I am, but I’m not. And now I would like to return to my friends.
    Jerry: I thought you were bored with them. You sure looked it.
    Lise: You should see me now.
    Jerry: Ouch.
    Alan Jay Lerner (1918–1986)
