Observers Expect Secretary Vance's Visit
to Mideast to Resolve Lebanese Situation
JERUSALEM — The
situation in Lebanon will
be resolved when U.S.
Secretary of State Cyrus
R. Vance visits the Middle
East Feb. 14-21, Israeli
observers believe.
They expect Syria to
withdraw its forces from
Nabatiyeh at that time.
To do so sooner would
create the impression
that Syria was backing

sure, the observers said.
If the Syrians refused to
withdraw, their presence
in southerri Lebanon
would become a top prior-
ity issue during the Vance
visit, they said.
Earlier this week, De-
fense Minister Shimon
Peres described the as-
sessment of Syrian troop
movements in southern
.Lebanon as a "misun-
derstanding" that Israel
was trying to correct by
diplomatic means with
the assistance of the Un-
ited States.
He reiterated that the
presence of Syrian tanks
and artillery units at
Nabatiyeh, about 10
"THERE IS NOTHING
THAT CAN BE SUBSTITUTED FOR
SEEING ISRAEL FOR YOURSELF
--Yitzhak Rabin, Prime Minister of Israel
"I don't believe that there is a better way
to express your feelings than to actually go
to Israel....There is something special about
the Holy Land....Those who go, come back
entirely different. They see something that
no words can describe."
So spoke Yitzhak Rabin, Prime Minister
of Israel, at the beginning of this Solidarity
Pilgrimage Year. Yet, what Rabin said is an
echo of what every person has felt who has
ever visited Israel. You know this.
If you don't you'll learn it at Pesach, when,
sitting at the Seder in Israel, every symbol
of this festival of freedom will take on
richness- that almost aches.
You'll know the feeling when you join the
crowd and dance through the streets on
Purim or Independence Day.
You'll feel it on Shavuot, as the First
_
Fruits are paraded through the kibbutz
with so much bursting pride. And at the
Western Wall, whle the ancient chanting
through the night seem s to make centuries
melt away.
Youll know what "no words can de-
scribe" when you walk through the streets
of Israel at Sukkot, and find yourself sur-
rounded by beautiful Sukkot booths in
every yard and on every balcony.

You'll feel it at Chanukah, at the candle
lighting ceremony atop Mount Zion.
But you don't need a celebration to share
these experiences. Because every day of
Solidarity Year is a celebration of your

partnership with Israel.

And once you go and feel these things for
the first time, as many times as you return
will never be enough.
miles from the Israeli
border, could escalate the
situation to "a very
dangerous point."
But Peres stressed that
Israel was not looking for
a military confrontation.
"The U.S. is trying, and
rightly so, to solve the cri-
sis in a diplomatic man-
ner" and "Israel will par-
ticipate in that to the
limits of its patience,"
Peres said in an address
to the 1977 Prime Minis-
ter's Israel Bonds Con-
ference.
- The Defense Minister's
remarks indicated that Is-
rael was prepared to ac-
cept, at this point, the Sy-
rian explanation that the
presence of its forces in
southern Lebanon was a
temporary deployment
that will be ended-after the
Syrians disarm Lebanese
leftists and Palestinian
terrorists in the region.
But the encroachment
of Syrian forces across
the so-called "red line"
last week threatened to
precipitate a new crisis
between Israel and Syria.
Although never defined
in precise geographical
terms, the "red line" is
the point which Israel
says it will permit no
Arab army to cross be-
cause of the threat to it's
security. _
The Litani Rirer in
southern Lebanon is re-
garded as an unofficial
demarcation line.

manded a Syrian pullback

engaged in behind-the-
scenes -diplomatic efforts
throughout the week to
avert a possible military
confrontation between Is-
