Tucker Chairman tapes of his scheming in the Oval Room — a vulgar, semi-literate, self-defined high school-level bully. That Reagan and Haig are so desperate as to call on Nixon for help in isolating Israel and the American Jewish com- munity in the AWACS deal is a subject in itself. It promises no good for the recovery of dignity and integrity in the White House and its relations with the Congress and the American voters. But we were talking about the Nixon role in Ameri- can politics. Nixon is not only a bar- nyard anti-Semite: his career was built on appeals to other degenerate forces in the spiritual underworld of American politics as well. He was elected to the House of Representatives during the McCarthy era by a cam- paign of lies against Jerry Voorhees, one of the finest Christian laymen ever to serve in the lower house of Congress. Voorhees was a YMCA leader, a leader in the Cooperative League of America, a chainpion of the rights of all citizens regard- less of race. Nixon blac- kened him as "soft on Com- munism," a lying charge ac- cepted by a number of voters who should have known better. Nixon then repeated his shameful performance in a campaign of lies against Helen Gahagan Douglas.• With these two starts he went on eventually to the top post, finally to be ex- posed as an unprincipled betrayer of the public trust. Nixon's misuse of his office precipated the most dangerous crisis in the his- tory of the republic since secession. That Nixon should be a barnyard anti-Semite — as well as a liar and a betrayer — is not surprising to those who watched his career crit- ically. But what are Reagan and Haig going dredging the bottom of the barrel to isolate "the Jewish vote"?! Are we "allies" of our friends or of our enemies? The Saudis have never hesitated to attack Israel without warning. They have ban- krolled PLO terrorists. They have levied political and economic attacks on Egypt for making peace with Israel. At least they have never lied to us about their intent, which is more than can be said of the appeasement crowd in our own Penta- RICHARD NIXON gon and State Depart- At this point there are ment! two important facts to be Let every concerned kept in mind, and one of American, Jew and Christ- them is the fact that con- ian and gentile, do every- cerned Christians are as thing possible to strengthen much opposed to the Saudi the Senators and Represen- Arabian deal as are Jewish leaders. The first point in a public discussion, however, is the fact that the proposed sale has nothing whatever to do with the defense or security of America. A recent study has shown that a large sec- tor of our own army in Europe cannot even man- age the sophisticated weaponry now available to NATO. How much less would be Saudis, of whom there are far fewer compe- tents than Iran could once boast, capable of handling the more advanced weaponry now sought for them! The truth is that the Saudi arms deal is a public works project for American munitions firms, backed by the oil cartels, mast of whom are "American" only in in- corporation, but not in loyalties. The second point is that Israel is the only depend- able ally we have in an area where the Russians are making great head- way.
