Middle East Views
The present contretemps in
the Middle East could have

by many. not the least of
whom was Ben-Gurion, should
Israel be compelled to relin-
quish her bargaining position
without adequate security
guarantees. l personally pre-
dicted NaSSer'S intransigence
in the event our foreign policy
bunglers should succeed in
bludgeoning Israel into dis
carding her last trump in her
perllous struggle for existence
in a hostile environment.
However. l lay no claim to
clairvoyance; the present po-
litical lmpasse was clearly
visible on the horizon many
weeks ago to anyone not af-
f1icted with extreme myopia.
And now. of course. we shall
be regaled with a rash of
editorials deploring the spate
of I-told-you-sos and senten-
tiously morahzing about not
crying over split milk. Unless
the moralistic cataracts are
very soon removed from the
eyes of Secretary Dulles and
President Eisenhower land
perhaps l should include the
editors of influential publi-
cations who have been backing
their unrealiStic position) the
situation will inevitably worsen
until Israel finally concludes
that the leopard has indeed
not changed his spots and
that our promises to protect
Israel's basic rights are as
worthless now as they have
been in the past. Then, OF
course, will come a new ex-
plosion in the Middle East.
and one that may not be so
easily extinguished.
When are we going to come
to the realization that meg
alomaniacS like NaSser can
not be appeased? Have all
the lessons of the past fallen
on barren soil? Shall we again
stand by in hand-wringing
impotence until the current
appeasement bears its inevi-
table bitter fruit?
To Nasser and his mentors
in the Kremlin, international
morality is nothing but a
blackmail weapon. However,
they do understand firm Ian
guage backed UP by willing
ness to take positive action.

horse and start reading Mas

too late. David Kahn.

out that 'rommelin exploits his

Navy to confuse many who may be

Thomas said that "there is no
necessity for dignifying statements
of the kind made by Rear Admiral
Crommelin with Official denials or
disavowals. I am confident that the
fine people comprising our Navy,
including representative percent
ages of virtually all racial and re-
