...extraordinary presidential order indicated the extent to which U.S.-Soviet relations have deteriorated in recent months. It comes at a moment when delicate East-West negotiations are under way in Helsinki, Berlin and Warsaw. While the growing gulf between Washington and Moscow has not led to a suspension of any talks, it certainly has not improved the atmosphere around the conference tables...

...lots of good times with the enraptured Baba-lovers. They like to say that Baba used the spiritual energy of his 1962 East-West Gathering in India to safely pass the world through the Cuban missile crisis which occurred at the same time. Also at that time, China invaded India, Baba predicted an Indian victory, and India lost humiliatingly. Still, Baba had great love and genius, and his essay, "Origins And Effects Of Wars," is the most excellent discussion of war I have seen. Even so, it does not adequately explain why Palestinians rightly yield to Israelis; why red Americans...

...contradictory hot-and-cold atmosphere pervades current East-West relations. On one hand, the U.S. and Soviet Union are resuming their critical Strategic Arms Limitation Talks in Helsinki this week. Last week the two powers agreed in Moscow to continue working toward compatible docking systems for their spacecraft, which could lead to eventual joint ventures beyond the earth. Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko, on his way home from a U.S. visit, became the first Soviet official of his rank ever to visit West Germany; while there, he conferred with Bonn's Foreign Minister Walter Scheel and hinted that...

...none of the major crises of the 1960s-notably Viet Nam, the Middle East, Biafra and the arms race-has the U.N. been able or willing to take a positive role. One of its problems is paltry resources, a handicap that can be partially cured if it acts soon on proposals to increase the U.N.'s on-call peace-keeping force from 11,000 to 25,000 men. But the organization's relative impotence in the major East-West confrontations is all but certain to continue, if only because the U.N. was never designed to be a world...

...seems too much to worry about. Few liberals have thought out the difficulties of dismantling the Cold War bureaucracy, and no one has proposed the goals which a post-Vietnam foreign policy should pursue. Another East-West confrontation like the 1962 missile crisis-this time perhaps in Israel-might totally disorient the liberal isolationist impulse. The problem of aggression is the sleeper in the isolationist critique, a critique which does nothing more than ask America to be nice...
