The map is intended to illustrate the contents of certain parts of the Special Committee&#39;s report (A\/9148) concerning measures that have been taken by the occupying Power in pursuance of what the Special Committee has concluded is a policy of annexation and settlement of these territories. In addition, the map indicates those areas with regard to which plans have been announced by the occupying Power that reflect the continuation of this policy.<\/p><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div style=\"color:#000000;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;font-family:Courier New, serif, monospace;\">\n<p style=\"margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;\">The Special Committee is of the opinion that, in presenting this information in a graphic form, it would be easier to appraise the policy of annexation and settlement of the occupied territories by the Government of Israel and the extent to which it has been implemented. Inasmuch as the Special Committee has relied on uncontradicted reports and statements by members of the Government of Israel and by Israeli leaders for this information, the Special Committee assumes it to be accurate. The Special Committee assumes the full responsibility for the information appearing on this map.<\/p><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div style=\"color:#000000;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;font-family:Courier New, serif, monospace;\">\n<p style=\"margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;\">The Special Committee would be grateful if this letter, together with the attached report and map, were circulated as an addendum to its report.<\/p><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div style=\"color:#000000;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;font-family:Courier New, serif, monospace;\">\n<p style=\"margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;\">Accept, Sir, the assurances of my highest consideration.<\/p><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;\">\n<table cellspacing=\"0\" background=\"#000000\" width=\"100%\" style=\"text-align:left;margin-left:initial;margin-right:auto;\">\n<tr>\n<td width=\"50%\" valign=\"top\" style=\"color:#000000;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;font-family:Courier New, serif, monospace;border-color:#000000;border-style:solid;border-top-width:0px;border-bottom-width:0px;border-left-width:0px;border-right-width:0px;\"><\/td>\n<td width=\"50%\" valign=\"top\" style=\"border-color:#000000;border-style:solid;border-top-width:0px;border-bottom-width:0px;border-left-width:0px;border-right-width:0px;\">\n<div style=\"color:#000000;text-align:center;font-size:10pt;font-family:Courier New, serif, monospace;margin-left:80px;\">\n\t\t\t\t(<u>Signed<\/u>) H.

The Special Committee wishes to point out that the attached map does not purport to place the precise geographic location of the settlements and areas reflected therein. However, it is satisfied that the location given is reasonably accurate.<\/p><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div style=\"color:#000000;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;font-family:Courier New, serif, monospace;\">\n<p style=\"margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;\">4.<span class=\"Apple-tab-span\" style=\"white-space:pre; font-size:smaller\">\t<\/span>The attached map, prepared on the basis of information available to the Committee, reflects the settlements thus far established by the Government of Israel in the occupied territories and those areas referred to in paragraphs 57 to 65, 71 and 79 to 87.
