...North African troublemaker, as well as to Jerusalem's Jew-hating Mufti. In the Gaza strip he allows, if he does not approve, the arming and training of the Al Fedayeen commandos, teams of Palestine Arab refugees which periodically cross the border to raid Israel. At the Bandung Conference last April, where he was hailed as a conquering hero of anticolonialism, he pumped the hands of Nehru and Chou Enlai; he bartered a mass of Egyptian cotton for products from Red China. Last year, he sent a trade mission to Moscow, and next year he plans to go there...
...most successful jobs of sabotage in the cold war took place five months ago, when an Air-India Constellation, loaded with eight Chinese Communist delegates bound for the Asia-African Conference at Bandung, exploded over the South China Sea. Peking blamed the crash on U.S. and Chinese Nationalist agents, and said the plane had been tampered with while being refueled at British Hong Kong.

It was difficult indeed for the free world to accept the picture of Chou giving pleasant little dinner parties for democratic diplomats in Bandung, or Khrushchev reeling with conviviality in Belgrade - but Molotov's change of pace was almost unbelievable. Twenty years of treachery and invective toward the West had made Molotov a symbol of the fanatic, devious, hate-filled Old Bolshevik. Now, like good Communists everywhere, he was suddenly trying to win friends and influence people...
...flew back to Djakarta brimming over with gratitude for the fuss Peking's Communists had made over him. In Hanoi, the Viet Minh's Ho Chi Minh, in an interview with the London Sunday Times, produced his own project for smearing up demarcation lines. He proposed a Bandung-like conference of leaders and intellectuals from the "little nations" of Asia and the West not closely associated with what he called imperialist pasts. They could talk over economic and technical cooperation...
