(Continued from Page 1)
To - Attack i4rael - Mr.
Eban declared to the. Se- an accomplished fact. The

contents of an . alleged Arab
blueprint for the conquest, oc-
cupation and dissolution of the
State' of Israel is revealed in
the current issue of "Vision," a
SpaniVi - language pablication
with wide circulation in Latin
American countries. The maga-
- zine claims that the document,
which fell into the hands of
Allied intelligence agents, has
been circulated as a working
paper among Syrian and Egyp-
tian staff officers.
According to this blue-
print, D-Day ,in Palestine is
to start with air raids on
Lydda and other Israeli air
fields: After a series of mas-
sive bombardments, Egyptian
paratroopers are to seize the
fields. These actions are to
put the Israeli air force out
of commission and prevent it
from retaliating in kind
. against Cairo and •Alex-
andria.

The attack on Lydda is to be
accompanied by raids on neigh-
boring Tel Aviv, which the
Arab blueprint considers "ex-
pendable." The destruction of
this residential city is expected
to demoralize the Israeli popu-
lation. In contrast, the raiders
will be instructed to spare as
much as possible.of Tel Aviv's
twin city of Jaffa whose har-
bor installations the Arabs
want to use "after ,victory."
In the same way, the Egyp-
tian bombers will be under
rigid orders not to touch at the
p6rt district of Haifa,•- espe-
cially at the British oil refin-
eries in the northern sector of
the bay. Only a number of
strategic point's on hills of
Mount Carmel are to be de-
stroyed.

The blueprint contemplates
no aerial attacks on Jerusa-
lem. The "battle for the city
is to be fought exclusively
on the ground by troops of
Jordan's Arab Legion. In
fact, Jordan's participation
in the hostilities — w h i c h
even after Glubb's removal
remains far from certain—
forms an indispensable part
of the Syrian master plan.
At the same time, a three-
pronged invasion is to be
launched by Egyptian ground
troops from the South, Syr-
ian units from the north and
Jordan elementi from the
east.
The Egyptians will try to
move northward toward Tel
Aviv from their Gaza beach-
head. • Jordan's soldiers are to
reach the sea north of ,Petach
Tikva, at the shortest point of
distance between the Jordan
border and the coast, thereby
cutting Israel in two. They are
to roll southward towards Tel
Aviv to join up with the-Egyp-
tians and northward to invest
Haifa.. Meanwhile, the Syrians
are to drive to the 'south via
Quaitra, Safed and Cana to
contact the Jordanians at Haifa.
The whole war is to be
over before any of the Big-
Powers has made up its mind
to intervene. Once organized
resistance has ceased—except
for isolated strongpoinfs—the
Arab occupation armies are
to enter the scene. They will
establish martial law in all
Israeli communities and su-
pervise the -evacuation of the
survivors. • German experts
are slated to help the Arab-
Military Government in that
task which, as the blue-
print says, "is to be pat-
terned after the evacuation
of _the Sudeten Germans by
the Czechs and of the Oder-
Neisse _G ermans by the
Poles."
