Rather. we have helped to perpetuate the division between them. for by feeding. aiding. and arming both sides. we have never forced either one to undertake a serious reassessment of its policies and position. This is extremely unfortunate. for this is precisely what is needed. For example. if we were to make it clear to the Arab States that we will no longer provide any economic. technical. or military aid until such campaigns as are at present going on in Yemen and Iraq cease. until they are willing to recognize the existence of the State of Israel. and until they are willing to contribute their part toward apeaceful solution of such outstanding problems as the Palestine refugees end the allocation of the waters of the Jordan River. I am certain that there would be a very serious reappraisal of their policies. As a result of such a policy. we would be making it clearabsolutely and un mistakably clearthat the Arab policy of intransigence toward Israel is and will continue to be immensely costly to themin political. economic. and even military terms.
