THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS Friday, January 30, 1981 31 Israel Achievements Impress Egyptians; Book Fair Ban Lifted • TEL AVIV (JTA) — A 10-member Egyptian par- liamentary delegation left for home Sunday after a week's visit to Israel, saying their talks and tours of the country had changed their minds about Israel. They said they now have a clearer picture of the various view- points within Israel. Dr. Mohammed Ahmed Abdallah, leader of the group, said before leaving 'lat It is obvious and clear fiat normalization (of rela- tions) is a fact, peace in the Middle East is a fact, peace . between Israel and Egypt is a reality." Dr. Mustafa Kamel Murad, leader of Egyptian opposition Liberal Party, said "I have now changed my views about Israel. I have a clearer picture about the points of view of the different political parties here. We had a picture be- fore, but it was vague. Now this picture is clear — that we all — the big majority — want peace, and even the extremists want peace but they are different in their view on how to obtain it." The Egyptians were visibly moved during a visit to the Yad Veshem Holocaust Memorial. They said it gave them a deeper insight into Is- rael's stress on the need for security. Dr. Fer- khunda Hassan Youseff, the only woman in the group, remarked: "Now I understand Israeli acts and deeds that I didn't understand before." During their week in Is- rael the Egyptian par- liamentarians met with government and opposition ,gripinhas Goes Country with Class the "Country House" is featuring Casey Clark Tuesday-Sunday .

In a related development, Egypt has lifted the ban it imposed on Israel's partici- pation in the international book fair opening in Cairo this week, Kol Israel Radio reported from Cairo. The report said the Egyp- tians acted following a meeting between the Israeli Ambassador to Etypt, Eliahu Ben-Elissar and Foreign Minister Kamal Hassan Ali. The meeting had been requested by Ben-Elissar. The Israeli Publishers Association, which or- ganized the pavilion, plans to exhibit 330 titles at the fair, one-third of them Arabic books. Meanwhile, an American journalist who works for the Jerusalem Post was ousted from Egypt last week. Joan Borsten, who also writes for the Los Angeles Times and holds Israeli and American passports, was the second staff member of Israel's English-language daily so treated in the past month. She had visited Egypt 14 times during the last 18 months. But when she ar- rived at Cairo airport at 4 a.m. local time Jan. 21 on a flight from India, Borsten's passport was confiscated and she was forced to re- main in the transit lounge for six hours under surveil- lance by. Egyptian security agents. She was sub- sequently placed aboard an Egyptian airliner and flown to Tel Aviv. Last month Egyptian authorities deported Annan Safadi, the Jerusalem Post's Middle East affairs editor, after he wrote an article about alleged differences between President Anwar Sadat and Vice President Hosni Mubarak. Summer Abroad Program Offered at American U. WASHINGTON — Stu- dents and professionals will have an opportunity to study America's relation- ship with the Holy Land and to form their own ties in Jerusalem through Ameri- can University's Summer Abroad Programs. "From America to Zion," a three credit course, will take students from the Na- tional Archives in Wash- ington to the Public Record Office in London to the Cen- tral Zionist Archives in Jerusalem where they will research the America-Holy Land relationship. Students will also visit the Central Archives for History of the Jewish People and the Oral History Division of the In- stitute of Contemporary Jewry in Jerusalem.

Fools rush in where angels fear to tread. A ban against the paper was announced in Cairo although it was not immediately clear whether it applied to all Jerusalem Post readers or Safadi alone. Several days ago, an offi- cial of the Egyptian Em- bassy in Tel Aviv informed the Post that Borsten would be admitted to Egypt on a U.S. passport as a represen- tative of the LA Times. Israeli political circles were said to regard the Egyptian attitude toward Post reporters as "serious." Efforts to have the ban lifted have failed so far. Borsten said she told im- migration officials in Cairo that she was on assignment from the LA Times but was informed by them that her name was on a "black list." The Egyptians told her she could not enter the country for political reasons but did not mention her affiliation with the Jerusalem Post, Borsten said on her return to Israel. .1 r WISH FOR JEWELRY Highest dollars paid for your diamonds, gold, sterling or old jewelry!
