FINAL WARNING: Ready to Spring the Trap
Bilderberger) was having dinner with Gerald Smith (U.S. Ambassador-
at-Large for Non-Proliferation Matters), Rusk suggested that Carter
would be a good candidate for the Commission. In April, while Robert
Bowie (former professor of International Affairs at Harvard, who later
