In the initial stages of the 1976 UN Security Council resolution (*) underwritten by the PLO and Israel's Arab neighbors, designed to offer Israel full recognition and normalization of relations:

<<< In December 1975, Israeli warplanes bombed and strafed Palestinian refugee camps and nearby villages, killing over 50 people, while "Israeli officials stressed that the purpose of the action had been preventive, not punitive," the New York Times reported. That particular attack, arguably, was indeed retaliation: against the United Nations, which, two days earlier, had arranged for the PLO to participate in a session to consider a proposal for a two-state settlement advanced by the PLO and the Arab states, supported by the world generally, angrily denounced by Israel, and vetoed by the US -- hence out of history, like other unacceptable facts. >>>
