SECRET 5. REVIEW OF RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN THE ARAB STATES AND ISRAEL THE COMMITTEE had before them a minute by the Secretary* covering a minute by the Director of Military Intelligence, suggesting that a review of Arab/Israel relations should be made in the near future. MAJOR GENERAL SHORTT suggested that an assessment should be made of the possible reactions in Israel as a result of Western cooperation with the Arab States, and vice versa. The considerations that would arise in such a study were the capabilities of both sides (in this connection Israel was economically short of raw materials), and an examination would have to be made of the likelihood of a renewal of hostilities between Israel and the Arab world.
