America must weigh aid with security in Asia and Middle East
In a broad World Affairs column, the author argues Congress will press for facts on competitive coexistence and whether billions abroad yield real security gains. He questions U S aid to India Egypt and other Asian and Middle Eastern nations, urges backing Western allies like Israel, and warns neutralist states may struggle to win Congress support. The piece touches on Portugal Goa Macao and Dulles remarks as examples of allied leverage versus Moscow. The column notes Israel’s alignment with Western powers and suggests letting Russia bear more external burden to trigger internal strain.
