TELECON Ambassador Dinitz/Secretary Kissinger August 2, 1974 12:05 P.M. D: It was a lovely evening last night. K: And substantive too. And it was the frankest talk that has ever been held below Golda's level. D: Yes, and he is the only one who can have this kind of talk I would say that K: I could see you suffering from time to time. D: No, no. I didn't. There is one thing I have always tried to keep in our relations, SO sometime when my colleagues take extreme positions, I try to K: I just wanted a direction from him. I have enough now to be able to talk generally. D: It wasn't suffering on my part, it was a concern that you realized enough to place it in the right mosaic. The idea of something negative would never be accepted what he thinks of as the final solution is the lowest of denominators of what he can get. But it was important to express the view. K: I don't think we should worry ab out the final solution. Any attempt to getting a final solution will lead to war. I don't think we should face that now. D: I don't think that was the int entition. K: I talked to Schlesinger this morning as I told you. I do not have the impression that was as much of a surprize as you think. The real problem is the one I have given to you. You can tell Allon that he is not going back empty handed SO he can ease his mind on that. D: Do you think he will have results before he leaves? K: Yes. Unless there is a paralysis at the White House this weekend. D: I heard reports that he was aboard on the boat last night with his friend. And about you spending time at the White House K: And that was speculation. That Ispent the day at the White House, just speculation.
