Eighteen senators — 14 Democrats and four Republi cans — signed a letter Wednes day urging Reagan not to prop ose such a sale until the adminis tration has thoroughly con sulted Congress and U.S. allies. Sen. Edward Kennedy, D- Mass., one of the signers, said the type of sale discussed “would represent a serious and un acceptable threat to the security of Israel, our most reliable ally in the Middle East.” Israel’s new ambassador to the United States, Moshe Arens, met with Secretary of State Alex ander Haig Thursday to register Israel’s objection to sales of adv anced U.S. arms to Arab coun tries. Arens said most of their dis cussion at the State Department was “directed at the dangers we in Israel perceive in the supply of advanced weaponry” to Arab countries. Arens said he will see Secret ary of Defense Caspar Weinber ger on Friday • Weinberger triggered an in ternational flap last week when he told reporters at Jordan’s Amman Airport that he had dis cussed with Jordanians the pos sibility of selling them F-16s and mobile Hawk anti-aircraft mis siles.
