I think what may have happened is the Soviets told the Egyptians, 3.3(b)(1) that there will not be any: progress unless there is stirring in the Middle East and those maniacs have stirred a little too much. It looks to me now that the Israelis are certainly going to hit back hard. They have already partially : mobilized. Probably, I will be going back to Washington and will decide in a few hours. I am having Scowscroft call a WSAG meeting. We are locating the 6th Fleet. No two ships are in any one place. It will probably take us a week to round up the sailors. We will have to move it by tomorrow if something is going on. H: O.K. Henry. K: Don't let Ziegler shoot off at the mouth without our known. Your position is that the Presi dent is on top of the situation and getting regular reports. from the UN (New York) this morning. We have nothing further to say.
