book have lauded it for its
message of women's rights
for Arab women and its per-
sonalizing of the Arab-
Israel conflict, but nearly
all have questioned its ver-
acity.
The author, Raymonda
Hawa Tawil, is a Palesti-
nian activist whose earliest
concern was for women's
rights for the Arab women.
She later became increas-
ingly concerned about the
status of the Palestinian
people.
Mrs. Tawil, along with
attorney Felicia Langer,
has been a defender of
Palestinian terrorists
held in Israeli jails. She
was involved in the re-
peated, unproven
charges against Israel of
torturing prisoners. Her
hal-

ton in the conclusion of

that Israelis and Palesti-
nians must get together to
find a way to exist side by
side — is not well servediby
her considerable problem of
credibility. Small details —
misidentification of people
and places, for instance, in-
correct recall, omission of
relevant facts — place the
larger points in question.
"Her admission of her
own tactics as a 'journalist,'
compounds the problem.
She says that she fed the
foreign press a report that a
scheduled merchants' strike
in Nablus was taking place,
when it had not yet started
— and then congratulates
herself on what she sees a*
her journalistic acumen.
"If this is Raymonda
Tawil's concept of reporting,
how then are we to swallow
her book as a whole?
Clearly, far more than a
pinch of salt is needed. Such
silliness and irresponsibil-
ity detract from the complex
picture Mrs. Tawil gives us,
with sadness but. without
rancor, of what it is to be a
Palestinian in the West
Bank . . ."
Mrs. Tawil describes
her experiences on be-
half of women's rights
while living on the West
Bank prior to the 1967
Six-Day War. The Israelis
were the hated enemy,
but so were the Jorda-
nians: the Bedouins of
King Hussein violently
dispersed demonstra-
tions by Palestinian
women and Mrs. Tawil
describes the Bedouin
hatred for "The more lit-
erate" Palestinians.
This view miraculously
changes, however, on June
7, 1967, when the Israelis
"invade" the West Bank.
Suddenly, the Jordanians
are the heroes and the pro-
tectors, and the vanquished.
Mrs. Tawil describes the
Palestinian derision for
King Hussein, who sup-
pressed them and would not
supply them with arms to
fight the •Israelis, but con-
tinues her description of the
good people of Jordan:
"For the second time in
one generation, Jordan
opened its gates to a flood of
Palestinian refugees. The
people of Jordan and its
government gave all the
help they could, generous
and unstinting. But the
Jordanians did not have
enough to give, and con-
tributions came in from all
over the world."
That generosity, how-
ever, vanishes in the very
next paragraph:
"Little of the foreign re-
lief was getting through to
us, on the West Bank; most
of the supplies were needed
in eastern Jordan. We only
had enough to give out one
small loaf of bread per per-
son every 24 hours."
Why were the supplies
needed in Jordan,when the
fighting and the refugees
were on the West Bank?
What is truth and what is
fiction? Are Mrs. Tawil's
dreams for a Palestine
side-by-side with Israel
honest goals or PLO prop-
aganda?
Nothing can seem foul to
those that win.
