...likely to bring on irresistible popular demands for war. Israel has reacted angrily to U.S. pressures to return most of the occupied territories. Any additional attempt to impose a settlement would pose several risks for President-elect Nixon-who last week sent former Pennsylvania Governor William Scranton on a tour of the Middle East to sound positions on both sides. Among those risks: the wrath of the U.S. Jewish community and other pro-Israeli sympathizers. Yet, asks Washington, what is the alternative to taking a strong diplomatic hand?
