Radio program & then to the situation room for some discussion of the Beirut Bombing of our embassy. It is virtually impossible to retaliate without risking killing many innocent people. I’ve told George S. to let Syria know that we are convinced this couldn’t happen without their tacit approval & we d--n well will keep this in mind if it continues to happen.
Spent most of day on the Mon. U.N. speech. It’s a ticklish one. I dont want to sound as if I’m going soft on Russia but I dont want to kill off the Gromyko meeting before it takes place.
