Senators push to curb US arms aid in Mideast policy debate
In Washington the Senate Foreign Relations Committee shows growing opposition to the administration plan for a 3.1 billion foreign aid package including nearly 600 million for military aid. Members including Frank Church and Joseph Clark urge tighter control, with calls for unilateral action and a shift from arms sales to diplomacy. The debate foregrounds Israel Jordan conflicts and the U.N. path versus independent U.S. action.
