At the same time goes our soft sell Ken Nedy has hewed to progressive principle b making social Security off limits to cuts resisting reductions in medicare opposing school prayer urging gun control prohibit ing lie detectors in hiring protecting the helpless alien worker and blocking arms sales to Jordan unless King Hussein deals directly with Israel. In sum. He has kept the Laith with the Liberal faithful on selected concerns while breaking Iway from the tax and spend mis takes of the recent democratic losers. As the polls now show he would run better than any Democrat holding the old constituencies while attracting Independent Young voters and he s Learned not la give inter views to in friendlies. This is when our democratic friends give us a funny look of Kennedy is so fearsome a candidate Why Are republicans so eager to run against him Well urn we re into Sharp contrast. He s against Star w ars and opposes Aid to the c Ondras in Nicaragua and to the anti communists in Angola and we re for All that. Kennedy. A great speaker would be the clearest proponent of your Side and we think the Man on our Side can whip him on the Issue. Like 64 a Choice not an Echo. And you Promise not to bring up the character Issue you have our solemn oath hardliners can give this Assurance in Good Faith be cause we that every other democratic candidate for the nomination will be walk ing him Crews around Edgartown. M Cutty Kennedy rally the unfair Media will Doctu on some Guy in a frogman outfit carrying t sign. Republican candidates will need to do nothing except to note every Day thai they Are just Loo High minded to raise the Chappaquiddick Issue Central to the judgment of a Man s character though it May be. Or dream still lives bul we will no be Able to sell the Democrat on Kennedy. He will make running noises Pott furiously Tili Llali the left until the Tut min Ute and then Cali a his Senate term end in i98k and a i.�,s would mean Oil Iroil. Unless a ring a Ding recession curls he hair of conventioneers Ted will then withdraw with a humdinger of j speech thai Stu make everyone cry. Especially Republican. 1c it York tin i we should t be surprised that trends spy on us How souk Shol old Tiik average red blooded american Boul 60 percent of us. I d guess be at Israel 1 i mean ii is now finally that an was recruited b an israeli agent to filch Wreis from Washington and Send them to Israel which ii a Trudl the Way allies acl toward each other. Or u if Washington Goi Progri Ivov angrier when mint Honl through i he mull round lays when confronted with our finding. At first the spy business Jusi Plain was t so. Then. Well official Israel knew nothing about it it must have been us. An inde it Randi in a razor. Of know. Then there was the Sov y or old Man stage it lasted about 36 hours the israeli government went on about How after All we have our spies in Israel so Why should t. 7 and Ihen. Well. Is. Ii did happen but no the relevant israeli diplomats could not be interrogated by the Fri. And the final act yes. It happened yes the diplomats could be interrogated in Israel and. Sorry about that. And to. A great peace descended. There arc some things that Are Best not written about. Bul other imperatives sometimes govern and Here we arc with one of those. It is this simple obvious in the israeli government should have an intelligence system that among other things inquires Inlo amt i secrets As they impinge on israeli policy. What would be unforgivable is the use of such a system for treasonable purposes. Kor instance if an israeli agent were u run Init a Datum useful to the soviet Union and inert pass such i Datum along to our enemy that would warrant he mos Eicre of toward Israel. Bul it is nol alleged thai Iny such thing happened. One supposes that there arc secrets in Washington hav ing to do. Let us say. With plans involving the West Bank. The palestinian problem to Jordan. A acs to saudi Arabia that kind of thing. And every Good reason in some cases for keeping such plans hypotheses contingency arrangements top secret from Israel. Bul there is also every Good reason for Israel to attempt to find out what such Tup secrets Are. The whole notion thai jul to nol spy on the of your friends is one of those Happy cliches that properly adorn Standard lots and should do so. Because there arc situations in Public policy thai we reborn to be Secci. Consider a Case so prep serous is u be dismissed instantly As a perfect example of red Ciao and Abs drum let us suppose that a Queen of England nol the incumbent Queen were something of a precocious nut on defense strategy and technology. Suppose further that in her weekly meetings with the prime minister she flatly insisted on getting from him the nation s most intimate information on contingency nuclear plans suppose further that a second Cousin of the Queen an adored constant companion was an agent of the soviet Union and the Queen gaily passed along the secrets to him which secret regularly made their was t0 the Kremlin. \ cd desperate to find the source a Luthc leak follows a Trail that leads to Buckingham Palace if you please to tip off British vi15 to the problem is Well thought by the director of the c la to present Diplo Matic problems so the Enterprise is undertaken by the Cia itself using a Young agent. Inconceivable you say Well a few years ago b novel incorporating that plot was written and popularly received do be sure nol in England. The novel did nol quite Strain the Bonds of credibility i mean it Wain l i novel by a science fiction Iype. In fact. I Uroic it. And the yarn attempted to Adum brate certain truths Abo relations of which the israeli Case u a Eta Niple. Among them that in this very Lough world you in to find out everything you can. In d certainly every Kinmg you need to find out. Because we and Israel it allies does nol mean i incr thai Israel is bound to Tell a everything n knows or thai we Are bound 10 Tell lira everything we know. The term allies presupposes separate identities Nanon a binds itself to nation a and be vent in Pursuit Mfune or More common purposes. But one of the reasons thai treaties arc made Between allies if Antt there Are always contingently different Intrau that relied individual needs. Israel for instance. Has no in Tention of diminishing its Trade with South Africa and ii a r a a . Policy or. If you prefer. Ils. Fetish to do just that. Is there a move aborting within Zongren or he mate department to put pressure on Israel to Stop trading with South Africa Ycu Don t know Wiy Kan israeli spy. Hell Tell you
