S. military alliance in the Middle East and for stationing sufficient U. S. troops in the area to constitute an effective deterrent force, nevertheless, believes that nothing can be done about it because of present attitudes in the executive and legislative branches of the government.” In fine condition, with staple and punch holes to top edge and an ink initial to top right corner.
