...letter to Magazine Editor Ralph Ginzburg, he even insisted that it was the "Hebes in Moscow" who provoked the Arab-Israeli war in order to give Israel more territory, including "that glorified gentlemen's pissoir, the Wailing Wall in Jerusalem." In the fantasies of Rockwell's chimerical world, he envisioned shipping 20 million American Negroes to Africa and gassing Jews after a grateful nation elected him President in 1972. After the depression that Rockwell predicted for 1969, the U.S. would clamor for "a white leader with the guts of a Malcolm...

In a week of frenzied activity, Iraq's President Abdel Rahman Aref flew off to Syria, then to Jordan, then back home again to receive Syrian Head of State Noureddin Attassi on a return call. After receiving Aref in Amman, Jordan's King Hussein took off on a whirlwind visit to nine other Middle Eastern and Arab countries that would last...
