TELCON
Edward Teller/Mr. Kissinger
7/5/73
10:00 a. m.
HK:
Hello Edward I'm sorry I couldn t return your call earlier.
ET:
Fine, and one of your people, I forget his name did return --you
know the main thing I want to talk to you about and your people in
Washington are aware of it, I'm here Boulder (?) and one
of the people who is lecturing as I am is Charles Malek (?) --
HK:
Oh yes, and he wants to come to see the President.
ET:
And I told him that he should see you as well and have a good
talk with you if you possibly could do it.
HK:
Right, when is he coming--is it today?
ET:
He will be in Washington all of next week.
HK:
Good.
ET:
And I don't see why I shouldn't tell you--he didn't make a secret
of it what is on his mind and I think earlier I did not to transmit
it the secretary - he says and perhaps it makes no sense that I
tell you ahead of time, that the main question is not between
Israel and Egypt but between Israel and Syria.
HK:
Yeh.
ET:
And the present situation in Lebanon is critical, that they need support
and need it rather urgently and he is planning is in the sense of bring -
ing Israel, Lebanon, Jordan and Syria together, the last point of course
is essential and impossible.
HK:
Yeh.
ETC: Which is not unusualk
mechanics of politics.
And I think that is as far as I can easily transmit in a few words,
but if you know the trend of his thought before he starts, it might
be of some slight help to you.
HK:
Good. And I will be in--I will be seeing him. you let me know
when you come east. I haven't seen you in too long.
