raeli authorities and the Hus-
sein regime
During the Yom Kippur
War, the inhabitants of the
occupied territories learned
not to believe Arab news and
propaganda. During the first
few days. they were certain
that the Egyptian and Syrian
armies had scored a decisive
victory.
Some of them put on their
best attire and waited in the
streets for the arrival of the
Arab armies. But they were
soon bitterly disappointed
when learning that the at-
tacks had been repulsed by
the Israeli army which had
crossed the Suez Canal, and
in the north had advanced to
40 kilometers from Damas-
cus.
The Arabs in the occupied
territories comforted them-
selves that at least this time
Arab honor had been re-
stored during the recent
fighting. Now they hope that
at the forthcoming confer-
_ ence in Geneva the Pales-
tinian problem will be dealt
with and a satisfactory solu-
tion found.
A newspaper appearing in
East Jerusalem recently
wrote that soon the Pales-
tinian flag would fly over the
Arab part of Jerusalem.
