Undoubtedly the dissent is receiving new publicity since the confrontation between the government and Dr. Nahun Goldmann, who was allegedly contacted by Nasser to hold talks, which the government refused because of Goldmann's political views. This event will tend to polarize and will undoubtedly force the government to publicly justify-if not modify-its policy. But there is no way to insure that this will happen...
...chief U.S. Middle East negotiator 15 months ago, was intended to improve relations between the U.S. and the Arabs and to probe for peace possibilities. But the demonstrations did nothing to improve relations, and Sisco found his hosts generally pessimistic about peace. He and Egypt's Gamal Abdel Nasser spent nearly two hours together at Nasser's Manshiet al Bakri residence near the Cairo suburb of Heliopolis.

Through political contacts outside Israel, Goldmann apparently managed to interest Nasser in a meeting to explore possible peace terms. Nasser insisted, however, that Goldmann notify the Israeli government of what he was doing. Golda Meir and her Cabinet refused to give their blessing to a man whose views about Israel are diametrically opposed to their own. The Goldmann trip to Cairo...
