Hi, I've been participating in a literature class with Rachel Korazim from Israel and today we were discussing the Kol Ha'am trial. A newspaper account at the time mentions that Abba Eban said that Israel would contribute 200,000 soldiers to assist the Americans in the Middle East if necessary. Many people could not believe that he would have said such a thing but it was reported in Ha'aretz and was not disputed. The date was 1953, I think.
Could anyone research this for me in the American press? Rachel asked for this. I am not in a position to be able to research it myself. Thank you very much, Marion Stein
