Measured Toughness. In its victorious position of strength, Israel in fact is increasingly convinced that a quick settlement with the Arabs is not in Israeli interest. The way Israeli leaders see it, if the Arabs live with the fact of defeat for a while, in the process they may be forced to learn the arts of coexistence whether they like it or not. There is no question that the waiting game in the Middle East pinches Arab sandals badly-and it bothers the Israelis hardly...
...Israel's determination to dig into conquered Arabia and stay becomes clearer each week, the first tentative signs of Arab resistance are being brusquely dealt with.
