David Ben-Gurion, Israel's founding prime minister, would resign the day after Kennedy's final letter to him. Kennedy wrote the US "commitment to and support of Israel could be seriously jeopardized".
Thank you so much Sam as this is hugely interesting. Coincidentally, I'm now reading James Douglas' in-depth book analyzing the Kennedy assassination and have learned much about JFK in the process. His letters to Ben-Gurion and then Eshkol fit in with his dogged pursuit of the nuclear test ban treaty and his back door diplomacy with Nikita Khruschev to reduce the threat of nuclear armageddon.
