Flexible Withdrawal Policy
Advocated by Golda Meir
JERUSALEM (JTA) — Premier
Golda Meir said Friday that she
did not accept the arguments of
certain hardliners who insist that
"not a square inch" of the occupied
Arab territories should be given
up by Israel.
But she made it clear that Israel
has no intention of voluntarily giv-
ing up very much of the territories
it seized in the Six-Day War.
Mrs. Meir's views on Israel's
future boundaries emerged during
a New Year television interview.
"We want withdrawal to places
that seem safe to us," she said.
She added that the overwhelm-
ing majority of Israelis would not
leave the Golan Heights or Sharm
el Sheikh and certainly not East
Jerusalem even if it were proposed
to make it an international en-
clave.
Mrs. Meir said Israel would
never return to the pre-June 1967
borders with Jordan. The Jordan
River cannot be left free to be
crossed and recrossed by armies,
she said. She hinted, however, that
some area of the West Bank might
be restored to Jordan or converted
into a "Palestinian entity."
She indicated that talks have
been going on with West Bank
Arabs since 1967 on the possi-
bility of establishing a "Pales.
tinian entity." Such talks, Mrs.
Meir noted, might be more re-
levant now in light of recent
events but there were many
problems, not the least being
what authority the West Bankers
taking part in them would have
and what their position would be
in case of peace talks with Jor-
dan.
The prime minister denied alle-
giations that Israel was ignoring
the existence of Palestinian iden-
tity. "We reject only one thing,
that Israel should be turned into
their Palestine," she said.
Mrs. Meir disclosed that Dr.
Nahum Goldmann, president of the
World Jewish Congress, had once
again sought S her permission to
meet with a person "well known
in the Arab world" and that she
told him once again that approval
had to be sought from the cabinet
as a whole. Asked if the "well
known" person was the late Presi-
dent Nasser, Mrs. Moir said it was
someone "much worse" than Nas-
ser.
Dr. Goldmann confirmed that he
had recently asked Premier Meir
for approval of a meeting between
himself and a representative of the
Palestinian movement.
Dr. Goldmann. who arrived for a
brief stay in Israel, refused to say
whether the leader he had in mind
was Yassir Arafat, chief of El
Fatah and head of the Palestine
Liberation Organization. But he
told newsmen that meetings be-
tween Israelis and Arafat should
not be ruled out if both parties
were interested.
He said that when Mrs. Meir
told him that his request would
have to be approved by the whole
cabinet, he dropped the matter.
Just a week before Nasser's
death, the Jewish leader told a
West German television audience
that he was in regular contact with
emissaries of the Egyptian presi-
dent and expected another invita-
tion for a meeting in Cairo. He said
that he was also invited by King
Hussein of Morocco.
Dr. Goldmann told newsmen here
that he regarded Nasser's death as
a blow to peace prospects in the
Middle East. He said Nasser was
the only Arab leader of sufficient
stature to engage in negotiations
with Israel and retain the support
of the Arab masses.
Meanwhile, Menahem Begin,
leader of the hard-line Gahal fac-
tion, declared in a radio interview
that there was , no chance of his
party re - entering Mrs. Meir's
coalition government as long as
the latter stood by its resolution
mentioning withdrawal from occu-
pied Arab territories. Gahal walk-
ed out of the government at the
time in protest.
