...revolutionary wave next threatens the monarchies of Jordan and Saudi Arabia, which have bitterly opposed Nasser's intervention in Yemen and have no love for the unity proposals of the Baath party. The beleaguered kingdoms last week seemed to be girding for a last-ditch stand. King Hussein alerted his Arab Legion, the most efficient fighting force in the Arab world. Prince Feisal, Premier of Saudi Arabia, protested that Egyptian planes had bombed Saudi towns on the Yemen border and angrily declared, "Let the world know that we are not afraid of war. We Saudis are indeed the children...
...Look. In 1958, the last time there was a big revolutionary crisis in the Middle East, the U.S. rushed 14,000 marines and troops to Lebanon. Last week the U.S. role was far more ambivalent. Washington sent a message to Nasser expressing "grave concern" at continued Egyptian bombing of Saudi Arabia. Instead of marines, the U.S. sent veteran Diplomat Ellsworth Bunker to Saudi Arabia to reassure the understandably nervous Prince Feisal. U.S. policy seems aimed at safeguarding the territorial integrity of Jordan and Saudi Arabia from aggression beyond their borders, not in maintaining the monarchs in power against their...
...revolution in Syria is unlikely to be the final firecracker on the string. Baathist and Nasserite elements are known to be at work in Jordan, especially among the Palestinian Arabs.

But if the road ahead looks rough for the monarchies, it by no means is smooth for the "liberated" states, since victory most often presents only new occasions...
...newsmen who even try to get into Yemen, let alone reach the battle lines. One who succeeded was TIME Correspondent George de Carvalho. From Beirut last week he cabled his report on a 23-day trek in which he crossed the peaks, plateaus and wadis from Aden to the Saudi Arabian border, traveling a total of 1,000 miles by camel, donkey, car and shoe leather without once leaving royalist-held territory (see map). Along the way, Correspondent De Carvalho was repeatedly shot at by Egyptian fighter planes, tanks, mortars, and artillery, saw two of his six Yemeni guards killed...
