The U.S. position is that such demands are untimely, that they would compromise Lebanon's sovereignty and discourage the Syrians from. pulling their forces out of eastern Lebanon. Reagan pledged, This administration is prepared to take all necessary measures to guarantee the security of Israel's northern borders in the aftermath of the complete withdrawal of the Israel army." But White House deputy spokesman Larry Speakes said this was not a new offer but a restatement of the President's policy since the negotiations in Lebanon began. When asked whether this would mean U.S. Marines would be stationed on the Lebanese- Israel border, Speakes re- stated the Administration's position that any enlarge- ment of the Marine mission would only come in consul- tation with other members of the multinational force in Beirut.

In his speech, which only devoted three'paragraphs to the Middle East, Reagan reiterated his commitment to his Sept. 1 peace initia- tive and repeated his appeal to the Arab states to negotiate with Israel. "Today, I repeat my call to the Arab world to accept the reality of Israel and the reality that peace and jus- tice are to be gained only through direct negotia- tions," the President said. "King Hussein should be supported in his effort to bring together a joint Jordanian-Palestinian team to negotiate the future of West Bank, Gaza and Jerusalem." Reagan stressed that "a secure and lasting peace for Israel and its Arab neighbors, includ- ing a resolution of the Palestinian problem that satisfies that people's legitimate rights, is a fundamental objective of our foreign policy." He said his peace initiative was "designed to accel- erate and broaden the negotiating process begun at Camp David. That process fulfilled the principle of exchanging occupied territory for peace between Israel and Egypt." On Lebanon, Reagan urged, "Syria, the PLO and Israel to withdraw their forces from Lebanon in the shortest possible time" so that "country can once again be an independent sovereign state." He stressed that the "continued occupation of Lebanon by these forces can only serve the interests of those who wish to undermine the cause of peace." Reagan added that "True peace can only evolve through freely-negotiated agreements, not solutions imposed by force." While there was no explanation for this last point, it seemed to be aimed at Israel's effort to achieve a normalization of relations with Lebanon. Shultz denied that U.S. policy in Lebanon is the "speedy withdrawal of Israeli forces." It is, he said, "speedy withdrawal of all forces in a manner that's consistent with the security needs of Israel, recognizing the implica- tions of southern Leba- non in the historic de- stabilization effect on Is- rael, and the emergence of a Lebanon that can govern itself." Shultz agreed that there are problems between the various factions in Lebanon which might increase if the foreign forces left. But he noted that these "problems have been less evident where the foreign troops have not been present and where the Lebanese armed forces have been responsi- ble for security." • On other matters, Shultz said he was "optimistic" that King Hussein of Jor- dan will be able to join the Middle East peace talks and rejected the view that one of the reasons Hussein was hesitant was fear that Saudi Arabia would cut off funds to the Hashemite kingdom. Last week, the Anti- Defamation League of Bnai Brith criticized "recent ac- tions and statements by cer- ' tain members of the Reagan Administration" as being "inconsistent with United States interests and funda- mental policies in the Mid- dle East." In a statement unanim- ously adopted by its Na- tional Executive Commit- tee, the ADL said: "The Reagan Adminis- tration started with a clear view of Israel as our most dependable ally in the Mid- dle East. Since that time, we have come to wonder whether some Administra- tion officials continue to share President Reagan's policies and beliefs." The statement singled out actions by Secretary of Defense Caspar W. Wein- berger as an example of "chipping away at the friendly and cooperative re- lations which have existed with Israel." The statement also declared that "pres- sures on Israel to withdraw and without tangible steps toward the normalization of Lebanese-Israeli relations are counterproductive and misguided."
