Sadat Tells Sternstein His Goals: Complete Camp David, Peace
NEW YORK (JTA) —
Rabbi Joseph Sternstein,
president of the American
Zionist Federation, says he
was assured by President
Anwar Sadat in Cairo last
week that the Egyptian
leader's "primary concern"
is "completion of the Camp
David process" and "to
eliminate the threat of war
in the Middle East."
Rabbi Sternstein told the
Jewish Telegraphic Agency
that Sadat gave him those
assurances in the course of a
90-minute private meeting
at the Presidential Palace
last Thursday. Sternstein,
who visited Cairo after
Begin Campaigns in Samaria
, JERUSALEM (JTA) —
Premier Menahem Begin
visited Elon Moreh and
three other settlements in
the Samaria district last
Friday in an apparent elec-
tion campaign move to re-
mind his constituents how
Jewish settlements on the
West Bank have expanded
under the Likud govern-
ment.
It was his first visit to the
site since May 1977 when,
in the wake of Likud's upset
victory over the Labor
Party, he pledged that
"many more Elon Morehs
will be established."
Begin was accompanied
by Agriculture Minister
Ariel Sharon who heads the
Ministerial Settlement
Committee and is the most
outspoken advocate of mas-
sive JeArish settlement in
the occupied territories;
Interior Minister Yosef
Burg; and Finance Minister
Yoram Aridor. In addition
to Elon Moreh, they stopped
at Karnei Shomron,
Kedumim and Ariel.
At each settlement the
visitors were greeted
with the traditional
bread and salt. But many
residents complained
that the government was
not settling the territories
fast enough. Begin
pointed out that the
Jewish population on the
West Bank has increased
from 5,000 in 30 settle-
ments to 24,000 in 85 set-
tlements and towns dur-
ing his term in office and
that in the past four
months the military gov-
ernment seized some
5,000 acres to expand
existing settlements.
Sharon spoke of the secu-
rity value of the settlements
and the importance of a new
highway that bisects the
Samaria district, connect-
ing Israel's coastal plain
with the Jordan Valley.
Begin declined to make any
comments to the unusually
large press entourage that
accompanied him on his
visit, including six foreign
and local television crews.

out of involvement in a
Middle East solution,"
Sternstein said.
"Second, I put to him
our puzzlement as to his
proposal for a Palesti-
nian government-in-
exile. To this, he said that
this will come 'down the
road.' It is not his pri-
mary target which is
completion of the Camp
David process.
"In addition, he stressed
that he was interested in in-
cluding responsible Pales-
tinian Arab leaders in order
to avoid irresponsible acts of
violence." Sadat did not say
who he had in mind, how-
ever, Sternstein said.
He noted that the meet-
ing coincided almost to the
day with the first anniver-
sary of the presentation of
credentials by Israeli Am-
bassador to Egypt Eliahu
Ben-Elissar.
