make valuable contribu-
tions to the countries in
which they live.
To support his argu-
ment for U.S. recognition
of the PLO, Jackson
stated that the PLO is
recognized by 116 na-
tions while Israel is rec-
ognized only by 51, that
the PLO enjoys observer
status at the United Na-
tions and that it is a full
member of the Arab
League.
The U.S. must recognize
fts interests in the Miciciie
EaQt, he said. He
enumerated these as a se-
cure Israel within recog-
nized international bound-
aries, justice for the Pales-
tinians, the territorial in-
tegrity of Lebanon and
normal relations with the
Arab world.
Another panelist, corre-
spondent John Cooley of the
Christian Science Monitor,
suggested that it was
anomalous for the U.S. to
refuse to talk to the PLO
without pre-conditions
when many prominent Is-
raelis have met with PLO
officials in various coun-
tries in recent years.
Buckley replied that he had

no objection to "talking" to
the PLO — "I would talk to
John Dillinger," he said —
but reminded Cooley that
the subject of debate was
"recognition" of the PLO by
the U.S.

TEL AVIV (ZINS) —
Abba Eban recently wrote
that Israeli contacts with
West Bank supporters of the
Palestine Liberation
Organization have changed
little with the change in
governments.
Eban, a Labor Party
Knesseter and former
foreign minister, said the
only difference is that the
Likud government's con-
tacts have been in an at-
mosphere of organized fan-
fare and tumult.
Although he did not wel-
come the change in atmos-
phere, Eban wrote, "the
contacts by themselves are
vitally essential to Israel."

"four million Palestinians"
(a figure he said was
supplied by Jackson) scat-
tered among a dozen coun-
tries in the Middle East and
elsewhere. He stressed that
the PLO remains bound by
its charter, adopted in 1964
and revised in 1967, which
holds that armed struggle is
the only way to achieve
Palestinian goals, that it is
the overall strategy, not a
tactical phase and that by
the liberation of Palestine,
the PLO refers to the entire
area of the state of Israel.
He noted that the PLO
charter hold Q "iiiegal"
noi only the 1947 Pales-
tine Partition Resolution
of the United Nations but
the Palestine Mandate
and the Balfour Declara-
tion as well.
Buckley also emphasized
that the PLO is an umbrella
organization covering 13 or
14 fedayeen groups that
engage in international ter-
rorism as a matter of policy.
He noted that one of those
groups, Dr. George
Habash's Popular Front for
the Liberation of Palestine
(PFLP) has been linked by
U.S. Air Force intelligence
to terrorist groups active in
14 countries, not necessar-
ily associated with the Mid-
dle East conflict.
Jackson maintained that
the American public is not
told the "whole story" of the
Middle East. He claimed
that the PLO has offered a
secular democratic state in
Palestine, including Israel, •
which Christians, Jews
and Moslems couici
amity. Since this was re-
jected by Israel, he claims
the PLO is willing to com
promise and accept a Pales-
tinian state on the
Strip and
;sank which
comprises only 23 percent of
the territory that was
Palestine in 1948. That fig-
ure does not include Jordan.
According to Jackson, the
central strategy of the PLO
is not terrorism, but diplo-
macy. "The PLO dos t z-ng_
age in terr, ?,rtm and we de-
that," he said. "But it
is just one dimension of
their activity." The real
power in the PLO is not the
terrorists, he said, but the
educated Palestinians, doc-
tors, lawyers, businessmen
and skilled workers who
