...been headed for a housecleaning. In that speech Nasser complained that his Damascus regime had turned up a big deficit and spent all its reserves. Though he did not say so publicly, he was displeased by other developments. He had banned party politics; yet the Baath (socialist) party, the Commu nists and others went on politicking.

Beyond that, he even foresaw the day of ultimate peace growing out of Truman-Acheson foreign policies (i.e., containment of Communism and devotion to collective security). "If the Commu nist rulers understand they cannot win by war, and if we frustrate their attempts to win by subversion." said he, "it is not too much to expect their world to change its character, moderate its aims, become more realistic and less implacable, and recede from the cold war they began...
