Fahmi Describes Peace Talks
as Egyptian Trap for Israel

WASHINGTON (JTA) —
The Israeli Embassy says
that Egyptian Foreign Min-
ister Ismail Fahmi has de-
clared Israeli Premier Yit-
zhak Rabin accurate in
describing Egyptian propos-
als as "a trap" during Secre-
tary of State Henry A. Kis-
singer's ill-fated effort to
negotiate a second Israeli-
Egyptian agreement.
In a background informa-
tion paper, the Embassy
observed that in his address
to the foreign ministers of
the Arab countries, assem-
bled in Cairo for the Arab
League conference on
March 24, Fahmi said:
"Rabin was right in de-
scribing the Egyptian pro-
posals 'as a trap' which in-
volved Israel's withdrawal
for next to no political re-
turn ... and if it is permissi-
ble to say that Egypt (in its
proposals) laid a trap for
Israel, it was desireable that
Rabin should welcome that

trap, because its purpose
was to achieve justice, .
honor, respect for interna-
tional law and the rights of .
man . . .

"It is clear that what
was being discussed was
neither a partial solution
nor a solution by stages. It
is also clear that what was
being discussed was nei-
ther a temporary nor a
permanent political settle-
ment. The aim was a mili-
tary movement or an
agreement with a military
coloring."

The Embassy paper noted
that from the outset of the
recent negotiations, the
Egyptian government has
no intention of working to-
wards a peaceful solution of
the conflict and saw any
possible interim greement
with Israel as purely mili-
tary in character. It pointed
to official Egyptian pro-
nouncements made in the
course of the negotiations.

WASHINGTON (ZINS)
— A story is making the
rounds in diplomatic circles
here involving Egyptian
president Sadat, Dr. Kissin-
ger, and his father, Louis
Kissinger.
The elder Kissinger, an
observant Jew, had pur-
chased some trees through
the Jewish National Fund
as a memorial to a departed
friend. The JNF saw fit to
publicize this deed and the
information was noted in
Cairo and reported to Sadat.
Once during Kissinger's
recent ill-fated diplomatic
shuttle between Jerusalem
and Cairo, Sadat mentioned
the ,fact, and asked the sec-
retary half in jest and half
in earnest whether the son
of such a Zionist father
could be trusted. There is no
word of the secretary's re-
ply.

months, according to
sources here.
By this limited extension
the mandate of the two UN
forces in the Mideast — UN-
DOF and UNEF — will ex-
pire simultaneously in July.
Egypt has already an-
nounced that it will agree to
the extension of UNEF,
which expires April 18, for
only three months.

Observers here believe
that the Egyptian and Syr-
ian move regarding the
UN forces was coordinated
in order to remove the
forces, if they so desire, at
the same time.

In that case, if hostilities
resume in the Mideast,
Egypt and Syria can act to-
gether against Israel with-
out a buffer of UN forces
separating any of them
from Israel, sources ob-
served.

Every land has its own
custom, every wheel its own
spindle.

It is a custom, more hon-
ored in the breach_ than the
observance.
