Senators say U.S. to cut aid as Israel Beirut crisis grows
Washington Senate Foreign Relations chairman Sen Charles Percy voiced sympathy with a mounting push in Congress to cut U S aid to Israel amid the Lebanon invasion. He warned relations with Israel have hit a 25 year low and voiced reservations about deploying U S troops to Beirut while Reagan and Shultz discuss options. Caspar Weinberger and others stressed any deployment would be brief and limited to aiding PLO withdrawal. Time magazine cites a letter from Reagan to Begin pressuring restraint, while Israel media says the letter’s details vary from Time’s account.
