He continued, "What dis- turbed us, however, was the injection into the debate of non-relevant, even mean- spirited innuendo. When a former President of the United States (Richard Ni- xon) attributes opposition to the Prime Minister (of Is- rael) and American Jews, this tack, plainly said, pulls the cork, lets loose the genie of anti-Semitism and its crony, 'dual loyalty.'

The ADL survey revealed that the 72 Senators had re- ceived approximately 166,000 pieces of mail, of which some 15,000 spoke of Israeli - "interference" and 3,300 contained anti- Semitic references.

A senior Washington official told the Times' Bernard Gwertzman that he could not remember "when the Israelis have been so excitable and so sensitive about everything; I can't rule out the possibil- ity that they might do any- thing." Might they really? And is their fever really so mys- tifying? The Israelis have wit- nessed the murder of the one Arab leader who ac- cepted their existence with a peace process that provided for their secu- rity. They have seen the United States put a higher value on Saudi Arabia's good will than on Israelis peace of mind. They have heard two former American Presidents vindicate the tactics of their implacable foes in the PLO and they have watched Western Europe join the "rejec- tionist - Arabs who pro- nounce Camp David a fail- ure. Are they only hallucinat- ing, then, when they see the whole world rushing to ex- change their security for petrodollars? President Re- agan keeps hunting for merit in the Saudi demand for a Palestinian state headquartered in Jerusalem, but not once in 10 months has he even im- plied what kind of deal he himself favors. And now he has allowed a jumble of American inferences about what the Saudis are imply- ing call into question the historic treaties and proc- esses of Camp David. So Prime Minister Begin — whose desire to annex the West Bank would in fact be served by a diplomatic breakdown — threatens the world with three retalia- tions. One is to defer the scheduled final evacua- tion of Sinai in April. That is not a credible threat. Israel must cling to the Camp David terms, not just to preserve a val- uable peace with Egypt but also to ward off more radical West Bank pro- posals and procedures. say, reduced American aid, and isolate Israel yet more. The third threat is the most potent: declare an emergency and, in a burst of panicky jingoism, form a national coalition govern: - ment. Such a coalition might not say no to every- thing, but it could not effec- tively say yes to anything more. Thus for the price of a few ministerial jobs to Labor, Mr. Begin could complete the deal with Egypt — and then im- mobilize Israel's diplomacy for years to come. What is the wise Ameri- can approach now? Clearly, not to deride the Israelis' fever, but to treat it. That anxious nation de- serves finally to know what further deals the Reagan Administration aims to achieve and what conces- sions it will next seek from all sides. Above all, America should not be straying from its own Camp David medicine. It is the Camp David treaties that commit Is- rael to something called "full autonomy" for Palestinians in the West Bank — and a five-year freeze on deciding its sovereignty. For all his obvious efforts to wriggle off, Mr. Begin is hooked on that line; and Israel's Labor Party positively favors it. Only by protecting that commitment can Israel and the Palestinians be gradually brought into real negotiations. But that won't happen unless Mr. Reagan persuades the Arabs who want peace with Israel, or alliance with America, that it is the only opportunity to avoid a diplomatic dead end and more war. Ask not why the Israelis are burned up. Wonder why Americans keep letting other nurses muscle in on a strikingly encouraging op- eration.

Since the dates of the let- ters were not available, the ADL official continued, no conclusions Could be drawn as to whether the anti- Israel mail was influenced by President Reagan's comment that "it is not the business of other nations to make American foreigripol- icy." Nor was it possible to assess the impact of former President Nixon's remark singling Out Jews as an obs- tacle to the AWACS sale, Perlmutter noted.
