US impotent in Lebanon conflict

Letter from America by Alistair Cooke

Available for over a year

US recognises its impotence in the Middle East as a nuclear deterrent can not impose demands on warring sides; a large standing army would have more power. This archive edition of Letter from America was recorded by one of two listeners, who between them taped and labelled over 650 Letter From America programmes from 1973 to 1989. It was restored by the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ in 2014.
