Telecon Secretary Laird 9/8/70 2:30 p. m. L: I wanted to check on a couple of things with you. First, when I talked to you on Friday when the Israelis were over here in the building work- ing on the F4s and A4s, they didn't go along with the F-4s in 120 days. K: What do you mean in 120 days? L: We offered them 120-day credit. That's the most liberal we can give. K: What do they want? L: They want us to give it to them. K: How did we give them the others? L: [something about the Military Sales Bill] and the 1969 finance bill. We never got the finance bill in 1970 or 71. We have kept a close bal- ance back and forth. They are going to take it up with their Finance Minister and he wants to talk to David Kennedy about it. K: Is there anything we can do about it? L: No I just wanted youto be aware of it. On the proposals for the use of the American military, we have these timetables. K: That's just a pipe deeam anyway; we can't get it done by tomorrow night can we? L: We might be able to; it would take 24 to 36 hours. XX On the evacuation plans, we've got that all worked out XXXXXXXX K: And on that other thing, I thought you didn't want to get into it. X L: No, you're right. The last time we alerted the State Department said we hadn't and certain people hadn't known and we got skawxdawxx shot down SO fast. No, I didn't want to do it.
