...East peace conference in Geneva by year's end?the President produced some mighty big zigs and zags. In the process ?deliberately or not?he also caused the quickest, deepest chill in years between a U.S. Administration and the Israelis and American Jewry. By week's end the frost had melted?a little. More important, Israel, the U.S., the Arab states and the Soviet Union were close to agreement in principle on a formula that might, with a little bit of luck, allow the Geneva conference to meet this year after all.

The old man understood media truth when media were still referred to as the press. Questions, not answers, preside. If you can get enough sober people asking enough loaded questions, you have carried the day or at least confused it beyond redemption.
