Israeli experts on Arab affairs said Egypt's effort to mediate the Lebanese crisis was little more than an attempt to assert Egyptian primacy in the Arab world. They said it was of slight importance because Egypt has committed it- self in advance to the support of terrorist groups operating outside the so-called "progressive" Arab countries. According to the Israeli sources. the guerrillas have agreed to me- diation because they how to EgYP- tion authority. But genuine media- tion is not likely because the ter- rorists insist on freedom of action along the Israeli border with Leba- non and punishment of the Leba- nese authorities responsible for the measures taken against them. If Lebanon agreed to such de- mands, it would mean the end of the Lebanese regime, and Pre. sident Charles Ilelou is well aware of this possibility, the Israelis said. According to informed Israelis, the majority of moderate Moslems in Lebanon are anxious to avoid a confrontation between the Chris- tion elements, who comprise about half the country's population, and the Palestinian guerrillas who are supported by extreme Moslems. some Druze tribes and young mili- tants at the universities. The eva- luation here, however, is that less extreme Moslems may be pulled into the pro-guerrilla camp against their will if the crisis continues.

"It is their greatest mistake." he said, and he linked it with a desire to express resentment over the Christians' friendship for the Jews and their desire to-see Israel succeed. "Sure, there are some Chris. Hans who are anti-Israel, but very few who would approve of a war with Israel." he said. lie said he was certain that the Lebanese in the main desire peace with Israel and hope for Israel's success as a nation. In an editorial in his last issue. Kanaan made a strong appeal for peace between Israel and her neighbors. He wrote at length about the lack of reason for the conflicts and pleaded for Arab friendship with Jews - and Israel. "We hope Lebanon will put up a cornerstone of understanding be- tween Arab and Jew," he wrote. Friday, Ocotber 31, 1969-13 SUNDAY 10 A.M. TO 1 P. M.
