Dec, 7 _- (AP) -- As fires of disorder swept the Middle East last week in the Zionist cru. sade for a Jewish state Bcvern- ment heads of Arab states were gathering in Cairo to decide the next moves. World Zionist leaders were reported preparing to ma“ in Jerusalem to complete plans for setting up and running a Jew- ish state. The disorders were taking place near the Western Powers’ vast oil resources in the Middle East. In Washington the series of outbreaks brought s forecast from an unnamed United Stnt-ss military authority that Russia within 90 days might offer troops to help maintain order in Palestlnc- within rocket range of Britain's main Middle East base in the Sues. Canal zone. Arab leaders claim to have arm- ies totalling several hundred thou- sand 7pc“ backed up by millions oi’ iribesmen. Leaders of Hogans —ih; Jewish defence force -- say they’ "have 70.000 trained man with modern arms. Both the strength and weakness .of the Arabs were symbolized dur- ing H enacting of 20.000 persons in the LOOO-year-old Al Azhar Mos- que hero Triday. Waving a pistol in one hand and the Koran. the Moslem bible, in the other, Saleh Hard Pasha. former Egyptian de- fcncc minister. told the throng: "There is only left this and this." His audience included not only thousands of Egyptians but stud- ents from the far corners of the Miislem nvvrld which stretches from Morocco on the west coast of Af- rica io the Philippine Islands. and totals more than 220,000,000 Per- sons. Aruba alone, including Mos- iems and Christians, ure estimated to number 70,000,000. lf the response to the Moslem and Arab cnlls fol‘ a jidah (holy war) is widespread the manpower supply will be almost unlimited. Another clement of strength on the Moaiem side is the hold the faith has on its followers. The Koran says that he who fights for God and is killed or defeated will receive great reward in paradise. Tho Egyptian army and some others have artillery which most observers believe Hagana lacks at present. but the Zionists generally are believed to be superior in the number and modernity of their automatic weapons and mortars.
