Description	From the AAEC Editorial Cartoon Collection. Cartoon by Eldon Pletcher. Leonid Brezhnev and another man stand looking at a large map of the Middle East. A large push pin with a hammer and sickle symbol on it is stuck into Syria, and above this is "Soviet-Syria treaty." Brezhnev is holding a box labeled "Sales territorial pins" with more push pins. A small step stool is in front of the map. Lines and shapes suggesting explosions are scattered over Iraq and Iran. Brezhnev, with a smile, says, "My! Opportunities could be bustin' out all over!"
