Suite 300 Washington, D.C. 20001 Dear Mr. Dine and Mr. Bloomfield: Thank you for sending me a copy of the book, The Reagan Administration and Israel: Key Statements. I look forward to reading it. Again, thank you for thinking of me. Best regards. Sincerely, Chic Hecht June 11, 1987 Dear Senator: The enclosed newly published monograph, The Reagan Administration and Israel: Key Statements, is a compendium of policy statements on U.S.-Israel relations by President Reagan and those who served thus far in his Administration. This publication chronicles the six-year development of the U.S.-Israeli relationship in areas ranging from strategic cooperation and trade to diplomacy and the search for Middle East peace. The document depicts the thoughts that have guided U.S. policy makers in building the bilateral relationship to new heights. It is a standard we seek to maintain and, wherever possible, to improve.
