...dealings with the Western press, Aref has shown none of the cordiality of the Premier. Nor has he taken the moderate line of the inexperienced and earnest El-Kassim, who just wants to be friends with everybody. It was Aref who, on the day of the coup, incited the mobs to attack Nuri and the Crown Prince. It was Aref who flew to Damascus to meet Egypt's Nasser-whose picture is displayed far more often in Baghdad these days than is that of El-Kassim...
...Voice of the People" (new pro-Nasser clandestine radio station that began broadcasting last week to Lebanon, proclaiming that the "people will topple every haughty tyrant-Chamoun, [Premier] Sami Solh, Malik, Hussein"): "You are a sick man, Eisenhower. You are sick and cannot stay long. You are weak, Eisenhower ... You cannot justify the landing of your army on hallowed Lebanese soil. You cannot justify your mad attitude towards summit talks. You cannot suppress the Lebanese revolution with your Sixth Fleet, which has polluted our waters. No, no, no, accursed imperialism ! ... Eisenhower, you aged imperialist...

He warned that hostility to Iraq was "not in the interests of our country" and roundly condemned the government for publicly approving the U.S. and British landings in the Middle East. "The interventions...
Before the week was out the Menderes government itself recognized the new Iraqi regime. But hard-driving Premier Menderes could boast that his militantly pro-Western foreign policy (which Inonu also favors) had at least 359 million concrete advantages. Meeting in Paris, the 17-member Organization for European Economic Cooperation agreed to extend Turkey $100 million in credit ($50 million of it from West Germany), thereby triggered promises of at least another $234 million from the U.S. and $25 million from the International Monetary Fund...
