Jewish Leaders Nix Sadat Proposal to Deal with PLO
(Continued from Page 1)
when they meet next month
to "abandon" the idea of
including the PLO in the
autonomy talks. Otherwise,
Begin implied, the resump-
tion of the long-stalled talks
would be jeopardized.
The Jewish delegation in
New York, which was
headed by Edgar Bronfman,
president of the World
Jewish Congress, and
Squadron, also discussed

with Sadat the issues of au-
tonomy and the AWACS
sale by the United States to
Saudi Arabia.
Squadron said that Sadat
agreed with the Jewish
leaders that the conclusion
of the autonomy talks for
the Palestinians in the West
Bank and the Gaza Strip is
essential to the progress of
peace in the region and it
should be concluded as soon
as possible.
Sadat, Squadron said,
also agreed that
Jerusalem was a sepa-
rate issue that should be
dealt with on a separate
basis and not as part of
the autonomy negotia-
tions.
The Jewish leaders told
Sadat of their strong opposi-
tion to the sale of AWACS
reconnaissance planes to
Saudi Arabia, explaining
that Saudi Arabia is against
the Camp David peace proc-
ess and is one - of the major
supporters of the PLO.
The meeting between the '
Jewish leaders and Sadat,
which was also attended by
Egyptian Ambassador to
the United States, Ashraf
Ghorbal, was described as
"cordial and warm." It
lasted 25 minutes more
than originally planned.
Before the meeting, Sadat
met privately with
Bronfman and Squadron
and invited them to pay an
official visit to Egypt later
this fall. The two Jewish
leaders accepted the invita-
tion.
Other members of the
Jewish delegation in-
cluded Julius Berman,
president, Union of Or-
thodox Jewish Congre-
gations of America;
Yehuda -Hellman, execu-
tive director, Conference
of Presidents; Charlotte
Jacobson, chairman,
World Zionist
Organization-American

ter, national director,

thur Schneier, chairman,

International;
Brith
Wishner,
Maynard
president, American
Jewish Committee; and
Rabbi Walter
Wurzberger, president,

America.
Following his meeting
with the Jewish leaders,
Sadat was the guest of
honor at a reception
attended by more than 600
people at the Temple Of De-
ndur at the Metropolitan
Museum of Art's Sackler
Wing. During the reception,
Mayor Edward Koch pre-
sented Sadat with New
York City's highest honor,
the Gold Medal.

About
Palestinian demonstrators,
chanting "down with
Sadat," gathered in front of
the museum during the
ceremony.
President Ronald Reagan
told Sadat last week that he
was not prepared to change
U.S. policy of not dealing
with the PLO.
At the same time,
former President Jimmy
Carter met with Sadat in
Plains, Ga., and called for
"all Palestinian leaders
to forego the use of vio-
lence and to recognize Is-
rael's right to exist in
peace."
Carter added, "It is time
for the Israeli military oc-
cupation to end and for free-
dom and full autonomy to be
granted to Palestinians who
live either in the West Bank
and Gaza or as refugees
from their homeland."

Sadat Says
`Nothing New'
in Saudi Plan
This week, Sadat re-
sponded to Saudi Crown Pr-
ince Fand's proposal that
East Jerusalem, the West
Bank and Gaza Strip be "re-
turned" to the Palestinians.
Sadat said that there was
"nothing new" in the peace
plan proposed by Saudi
Arabia and that Saudi
Hertzberg Prays at Temple Site
JERUSALEM — World
Jewish Congress Vice
President Rabbi Arthur
Hertzberg was among a
group of nationalist Jews
who wished to pray on the
Temple Mount last
weekend. Moslems oppose
organized prayer by Jews at
the site.
Herzberg and his wife
entered the area disguised
as tourists, and prayed
there to mark Tisha b'Av
"I didn't come with politi-
cal intentions," he later told
a Haaretz reporter, "but I
can't accept the thought
that Jews could be forbid-
den to pray on the Temple
Mount on a day of mourning
for its past destruction."
Tisha b'Av was marked
by the arrests of several
would-be worshippers on
the Temple Mount and by
daubings on the graves of
Theodor Herzl and former
President Yitzhak Ben-Zvi.
The daubings, in black
Arabia should "contribute"
to Middle East peace efforts
by joining the efforts now
going on by the United
States and Egypt.
Sadat said that it was
"not at all" true as Fand
said that the Camp David
peace process was a failure
and urged Fand to join in
the peace process.
The Egyptian president
also rejected news reports
that Fand's proposal , was
the first time Saudi Arabia
had offered to recognize Is-
rael. "This is not the first
time," Sadat said.
He noted that when
Saudi Arabia and other
Arab countries met in
Baghdad after the Camp
David agreements in 1979
to plan efforts to "choke"
Egypt economically, they
offered to recognize Is-
rael at that time under
certain conditions. Sadat
also noted that Fand had
rejected the Camp David
agreements "even before
the text" was made pub-
lic.
Israel rejected outright
the Saudi Arabian peace
plan for the Middle East
conflict as "a phased pro-
gram for the destruction of
Israel."
in
circles
Official
Jerusalem said the phases
of dismemberment, under
the Saudi plan, were:
Israeli withdrawal from
all the occupied areas;
handing over the areas to
the United Nations under a
trusteeship plan; estab-
lishment of an independent
Palestinian state with East
Jerusalem as its capital;
The right of two million
Palestinians to "repatria-
tion" or compensation for
those who do not wish to re-
turn.
The Israeli officials said
that the thrust of this plan,
if realized, would mean an
attack by the Arab states on
Israel with the Palestinian
state acting as the
"spearhead."
The U.S. State Depart-
ment said Wednesday
that an "initial examina-
tion" of the Saudi pro-
posal showed there was
nothing new.
The spokesman added,
"We of course welcome any
expressions from states in
the area of a desire to seek a
peaceful resolution of the
problems confronting the
Middle East. This is impor-
tant. We will continue to ex-
change views with the gov-
ernment of Saudi Arabia on
questions relating to peace
in the area."

cease his operations. Or-

demned the daubings and
insisted that they and their
people had had nothing to
do with it.
