However , meaningful action by the UAC against Israel was given two pre-conditions by the commander-in-chief , Ali Ali Amer , at the second Arab League summit , held in Alexandria , Egypt , in September 1964 . Firstly , the confrontation states – Lebanon , Jordan and Syria – must allow the UAC to station foreign Arab troops on their soil at the UAC 's discretion . Secondly , there must be co-ordination and standardisation of strategy , tactics , organisation and weaponry . While the second pre-condition was agreed to in principle , the three confrontation states baulked at allowing Egyptian encroachment on their territory
