Chapter 685 McFarland travels again
If you can fight, fight, and if you can’t fight, justify it. This is a universal principle, whether it is a fight between gangsters or a war between big powers.
Now, war is a very unfavorable deal for Israel. No matter from any perspective, what Israel needs most is to delay time and peace talks, which is a good way to delay time.
"Peace talk?" General Weizmann looked unhappy: "When did we Israel have a peace talk? This is a treason!"
"Didn't we have had a peace talk during the First Middle East War? Besides, we are just delaying the time now!" Rabin said: "I agree to the peace talks."
Even the Minister of Defense agreed. Although General Weitzmann's face was already red, he sat down with anger and said nothing.
"I agree to the peace talks," Perez said. Israel now needs to buy time. The first batch of American aircraft will be transported to Israel within three days. After intense rescue, their air base has opened up a safe passage. The surviving pilots are making restorative preparations. Even if there are more than ten fighter jets or five, it is very necessary for Israel today. As long as the Israeli Air Force fighter jets reach thirty, they can protect their airspace again.
What they need now is time. With time, plus the main leader of the Arab army this time, if Iraq has caused civil unrest, they can resolve the crisis.
Peace talks are the right choice for Israel now, and it is absolutely unsuitable to use nuclear weapons. Although this will arouse absolute opposition from the right-wing forces in the country, it is true that it will push the Middle East toward nuclear war and expose its own people to nuclear weapons of the Soviets who were not their enemies. Perez knew clearly that he could not do that.
This time, Israel is not weak, but is seeking greater opportunities.
After this incident calms down, Israel needs to invest huge amounts of money to focus on developing air defense systems that intercept ballistic missile systems and protect its own sky! (In later generations, in order to defend against ballistic missiles from various countries, Israel has done its best in defending ballistic missiles. Their low-level "Iron Dome" short-range missile defense system, medium-range defense system "David's Stone Cast", and high-level defense system "Arrow" series missile defense systems.)
Israel needs to have sharp arrows to strike the enemy, that is, to increase the efforts to develop Jericho-2 ballistic missiles, so that Israel's ballistic missiles can deter the Arab countries in the Middle East, and also have the technology to defend against ballistic missiles from Arab countries, which can strike the enemy and defend against the enemy's strikes, and build a powerful national weapon that is both offensive and defensive!
Israel suffered a great loss this time, and they were already thinking about how to fight back. The Jewish nation has always been a nation that is good at thinking and summarizing.
"So, how do we have a peace talk? Should we talk directly to the Arab army opposite us? Let's stop making peace?" General Weizmann asked.
"Let the Americans do it, the United States has always been dealing with us, let them talk to both of us, so that we, Israel, have not lost face," said the Foreign Minister.
Although the United States has broken its face with Iraq and imposed sanctions on Iraq, until now, it has not completely blocked the road between the two sides and has not reached the same level as Iran. Both sides have diplomatic conflicts. Maybe one or two years later, the feng shui will turn and become a family again.
Therefore, Israel proposed to let the United States mediate from it, and the United States can also unite with the United Nations. Now, many countries in the world are hoping to resolve the Middle East issues as soon as possible and allow a new round of crude oil storm in the world to continue as soon as possible. The Western world cannot stand the unlimited oil price increase.
Therefore, once the United States calls, countless countries will follow suit and let the crisis in the Middle East pass as soon as possible.
"But if we want to negotiate, then we have to have our own bottom line," said the Foreign Minister.
Bottom line? Our bottom line is that there is no bottom line! Perez said: "Our current negotiations are just to delay time, so you should be very good at this kind of diplomatic matter, right?"
"Yes, I get it." said the Foreign Minister.
Their negotiations are not to achieve the purpose of a ceasefire. Their current negotiations are to delay time and allow American fighter jets to arrive. When the civil strife in Iraq, their crisis will naturally be lifted. In diplomatic terms, in a negotiation, both sides will quarrel at the negotiating table for a month or two, but they cannot reach any opinion. This is possible.
Israel wants to negotiate, which is undoubtedly very good news for the United States. Now, the United States is worried about how to deal with the situation in the Middle East. The situation in the Middle East is changing so quickly that it completely exceeds the United States' control. Especially after receiving the Soviet nuclear deterrence against Israel, the United States feels even more overwhelming.
At this time, does the only choice of the United States is to use its own nuclear weapons to deter the Soviet Union? However, the United States' nuclear weapons were originally aimed at the Soviet Union, but they just claimed that they would not take much effort. In this case, the United States has no reason in the United Nations and in the world.
Using its own nuclear bomb to protect a country that challenges the basic laws of the world, even if the United States has a bad international status, the United States must still do this, because the Soviet Union deters Israel, which is to shock the tiger across the mountains and show the United States.
At this moment, Israel proposed to reconcile, which made the United States feel relieved. The United States is very willing to do this training job.
But who should I send? This person needs a lot of courage, because, after all, the two sides are in a war, and the early sanctions of the United States on Iraq have made Iraq feel no good about the United States. Even the US ambassador to Iraq is submitting materials to the top, hoping to end his term and return to the United States, even if he is a clerk in the White House.
The people in the Middle East have seen that kind of fanaticism. If Iraq becomes Iran and patriotic students take the people in the embassy, they will be hostages.
Especially now, the whole world knows that the cause of this incident was Israel's nuclear weapons, and the United States played a very disgraceful role. It is said that in Baghdad, Riyadh and other places, patriotic students conducted several marches to protest the actions of the US government.
Therefore, in addition to being brave, the person sent also needs to have close relationships with Iraqi senior officials and needs to be a veteran in diplomatic affairs. Such a person is really hard to find!
Just when President Reagan was worried, the National Security Assistant interrupted: "I know there is someone who is very suitable for this trip."
"Who?" President Bush asked.
"It's McFarlane."
McFarlane! They all remembered this slightly fat middle-aged man. Last time, McFarlane was lucky enough to save American hostages from Iran, which gave the Reagan administration a high reputation. This is also an aspect of his re-election. Otherwise, if he was as incompetent as the Carter administration, there would be a great crisis.
After McFarlane returned, he was also promoted to serve as deputy director of the General Office in the White House.
Now, Reagan thought of this person and immediately felt that it was indeed very appropriate to let this person go. This person has the courage and ability. It can be seen from the last incident. Moreover, he also had friendship with senior Iraqi officials in the last incident. It is said that Kusai would have met him and asked this person to go, hoping that this matter can be accomplished!
When everyone else left, Reagan left behind CIA Director Casey and asked, "How are you doing in Iraq?"
Casey knew that the president was referring to that top secret matter.
"Now everything is going well. We have successfully encouraged the Kamal brothers. They have the Special Guard of the President's Private Security Armed Forces in Baghdad, Iraq. Although they are unemployed by Kusai, this army is still obedient to them. Moreover, Baghdad's internal forces are now empty, and they are very sure that the coup will be successful." Casey said.
"Okay," President Reagan nodded, very satisfied with the progress of the project.
To resolve the Middle East issue, Reagan decided to take a two-pronged approach. Now he would first appease the Iraqi side and let Representative McFarlane go to complete the task of making peace talks between the two sides. At the same time, he would make Iraq's backyard fire, rush off the Kurdistan race, and build an Iraqi regime that would reassure the United States.
Although the United States has nodded and expressed that it will absolutely support the Kamal brothers, it depends on the international situation before it depends on the international situation. If it can support it, the United States will use its own force to support the Kamal brothers to consolidate the regime. If the situation does not allow it, the Kamal brothers' coup will be seen through by Kusai, then the United States will not suffer any losses, just watch the show.
The Kamal brothers didn't know that the Americans were ready to cheat them at any time, and they were now full of confidence.
Because the war on the Western Front involved most of Iraq's energy. The armored forces stationed next to Baghdad had already started to move to the western border area, and Kamal also received reliable information. Now, Kusai is not in Baghdad, but has gone out.
If Kusai is in Baghdad, they still have some resistance. Now that Kusai is not here, they only need to launch the troops they can control and occupy the Palace of the Republic and the Ministry of Defense and other places. They may be able to complete the coup task without bleeding or bleeding less.
A new government will be established, and such things have been repeated many times in history. As for the possible counterattacks of Kusai, on the one hand, they will contact the generals who are self-respecting and make them obey the new government, and on the other hand, if those troops do not obey their orders, they will be hit by the United States.
Power can make people lose their eyes and their judgment. It is not so easy to ascend to the throne of power.
