Role of Iran in Middle East Evaluated After U.S. Talks

WASHINGTON (JTA) —
The American assessment
of the Shah of Iran, Mo-
hammed Reza Pahlavi, and
the Shah's conversations
during his recent three-day
state visit in Washington
focused on determining not
only U.S. policy in the Mid-
dle East — from Israel's
security to the flow of oil —
but the strategy of main-

taining Western influence
from the eastern Mediterra-
nean to the Indian Ocean.
Of critical importance to
American strategists is
whether, in moving towards
a settlement of some kind
between Israel and her
neighbors, the Soviet Union
can be prevented from get-
ting a permanent foothold
either in the oil areas or on
the waters between India
and Africa.
The immediate power of
the Shah may be seen in the
simple fact that the sinking
of a single oil tanker in the
strait linking the Persian
Gulf with the Gulf of Oman
can effectively block the oil
flow from that entire area
to the West. For all the crit-
icism leveled at the Shah, he
is in his outlook a genuine
moderate in the Middle
East.

His visit comes on top of
other visits in recent days
to the White House by Jor-
dan's King Hussein and
Egyptian and Saudi offi-
cials and before Ford goes
to Salzburg to confer with
Egypt's President Anwar
Sadat June 1 and 2. There-
fore, some observers note,
the Iranian monarch's
reasoning may well estab-
lish some patterns in the
President's own ap-
proaches for the Sadat
meeting and with Israel's
Premier Yitzhak Rabin
June 11 and 12 in Wash-
ington.

While Moslem and Mid-
eastern, Iran under the
Shah has taken stands in a
spirit of tolerance that has
enabled the country to go
forward socially as well as
economically and politi-
cally. This is exemplified by
the treatment of the coun-
try's tiny Jewish minority.

NEW YORK — A team of
Israeli researchers claim to
have discovered evidence
that Vitamin E. retards ag-
ing in laboratory animals.
The head of the team,
Prof. David Gershon of the
Technion — Israel Institute
of Technology, asserts that
he has succeeded in prolong-
ing the life of laboratory an-
imals by as much as 30 per-
cent by giving them Vitamin
E.

Israeli Believes Arab Actually
Urged Extermination of Jews

NEW YORK (JTA) — A
senior Israeli diplomat said
that he has no doubts that
Ashraf Ghorbal, Egypt's
Ambassador to the United
States, did advocate the ex-
termination of all traces of
Judaism in the Mideast in
an interview published ear-
lier this year in Marchar, a
right-wing periodical pub-
lished in Buenos Aires.
Aba Gefen, a former con-
sul in Argentina and pres-
ently the director of cultural
affairs at the Israel Foreign
Ministry in Jerusalem, said
that "Ghorbal was only ech-
oing the view of his boss,
President Anwar Sadat."
According to Gefen,
Sadat declared last year in
Al Hassin mosque in Cairo,
on the occasion of Mo-
hammed's birthday, views
basically similar to that
which Ghorbal expressed in
Marchar.

Sadat's remarks, Gefen
said, included the state-
ment: "The most splendid
thing that the Prophet
Mohammed did was to
drive the Jews out of the
Arabian peninsula . . .
Jerusalem is our property.
We shall retrieve it from
the hands of those of whom
it is written - in the Koran:
They will be brought low
and made wretched . . ."

The Ghorbal interview in
Marchar, which was con-
ducted by the magazine's
editor, Patricio Kelly, has
been repudiated by the
Egyptian Ambassador and
by Alejandro Orfilla, the
Argentine Ambassador to
the United States who intro-
duced Ghorbal to Kelly in
Washington where the in-
terview took place. Ghorbal
has asserted that no inter,-
view occurred and that he
and Kelly met for only two
minutes. Kelly, in his arti-
cle, maintained that the two
men met for 90 minutes.
Gefen contended that the
interview is a _"fact which
cannot be denied." He said
that he had read the inter-
view in Spanish and said he
knows Kelly personally
from the days he served as
an official in Argentina be-
tween 1963-1967.

Kelly was in those years in
close contact with the
Egyptian Embassy in Ar-
gentina and with Hussein
Triki, the Arab League
representative who was
later expelled from Argen-
tina for fomenting public
disorder with his anti-
Jewish activities.

Gefen, who was one of the
leaders of Bricha and came
to Palestine a few months
before the creation of the
Jewish state, said that col-
laboration between Arabs
and local anti-Semites in
Argentina is presently very
much under way. He identi-
fied Kelly as one of the local
anti-Semites.
