Plus a just and lasting peace and a right on both sides to\nexist.\nK: The Israeli concession is to accept the resolution.\nA: And there are negotiations that Jarring recommends eather than face-to-\nface. And withdraw in accordance with 242.\nK: What do the Israelis most object to?\nA: (Something about withdrawing and borders)\nK: Argov, when I quieted them down, said when I said I cannot tell the\nPresident you don't like this, went back to the letter. One letter says accept\nand the other within the framework.\nA: Our formula is general. They have made it more specific. Joe told\nthe P. M. that your position is protected by your letter to us which is your\ninterpretation of what you want. The others are also protected. If we don't\nhave a common formula, we cannot get off the ground.\nK: What do they say?\nA: They say that they made a consession in the letter to direct negotiation.\nIt was SO clear from the beginning that the core of our proposal was\nour Note\nto Jarring. Any reservations they should register, which\nthey have done. I cannot understand their stand\nK: But Joe said this letter is not as good as the Egyptians because it puts\na reservation into the body. Rabin said to me tonight -- I will send you a\nmemcon -- they said they were watching Sisco reading the letter and when\nhe didn't object they sighed with relief.\nA: He said it's clear and didn't say it was good or bad. We wanted to analyze\nit. We thought this problem might come up. We talked to Yost to find\nwords that came within but not giving up their interpretation. The problem\ncame when Barber worked out with the P.M. the wording okthex Tekoah\nwould make that ? ? ? ? and they understood as a substitute.\nK: If you could do a memo on how this arose you will make me look better.\nDo it as an Eliot memo to me. That's the right channel.\nA: That's what we are doing tonight.\nK: I will wait here for Sisco to call me."
