THE LOOK DELUXE

review and appraisal of the de-
cade's achievements, the diffi-
culties in realizing its goals
and strategies for the future.
"This conference has," she
says, "on the backs of women,
passed resolutions such as
`Zionism is racism,' and par-
ticularly at the Copenhagen
conference, was very anti-
Semitic. Therefore, I have be-
come part of a group called
`Black-Jewish Women's
Dialogue.' My concept was to
go networking, not to go alone
as white, North American,

Jewish, Zionist, but to go to-
gether as a team and share our
perceptions.
"Although there will be in-
ternational anti-Semitism, at
least I will be going as a
bridge-builder. I cannot pre-
vent the anti-Semitism, but I
can make my voice heard and
will speak about how women
empower themselves artisti-
cally, about our ambitions, our
dreams and how women of dif-
fering faiths and races can find
a way of meeting on common
issues." ❑

Syrians Worry Israelis
During Peace Efforts

Tel Aviv (JTA) Syria will go
all out to derail any peace talks
between Israel and a joint
Jordanian-Palestinian delega-
tion, resorting to assassination,
military pressure on Jordan and
possible terrorist activity against
Israel, according to the chief of Is-
raeli military intelligence, Maj.
Gen. Ehud Barak.
The Syrians might target King
Hussein of Jordan and Palestine
Liberation Organization chief
Yassir Arafat for assassination if
such talks seemed about to mate-
rialize, Barak told Israeli military
and Arab affairs correspondents.
He does not anticipate a mas-
sive Syrian move against Jordan
or all-out war with Israel in the
near future. Nevertheless, Barak
cautioned, it was a mistake to
exclude the possibility that Syria
would attempt to launch a sur-
prise attack with limited goals
even before it achieves its objec-
tive of strategic parity with Israel.
He said Damascus was develop-
ing the capability to hit maritime
targets in Israeli waters, as far
south as Tel Aviv from its own
coast north of Lebanon. The
targets would be identified and lo-
cated by submarines Syria ex-
pects to receive with in a year,
Barak said.
Israeli Premier Shimon Peres
sent a letter to U.S. Secretary of
State George Shultz last week on
the prospects of peace talks be-
tween Israel and a joint
Jordanian-Palestinian delega-
tion.
Sources close to Peres said that
the letter was a "model of com-
promise," a "national unity
paper" and "does not close any
doors." Although signed by Peres,
it conveys greetings from vice
Premier Yitzhak Shamir of
Likud. Shamir departed on a
European trip Sunday but was in
close contact with Peres on the
reply to Shultz. While in London,
Shamir publicly invited King
Hussein to meet with him. Hus-
sein was also in London at the
time, but no meetings were held.
In the letter, Peres avoided any
explicit rejection of members of
the Palestine National Council
(PNC) as possible participants in
a joint Jordanian-Palestinian
negotiating team. But he ruled
out "Palestinians belonging to the
PLO or any of its,institutions."

The letter advised the U.S. not
to hold separate talks with a joint
Jordanian-Palestinian group
prior to talks between such a
group and Israel. It proclaimed Is-
rael's readiness to negotiate
rectly with a joint delegation or to
negotiate with Jordan alone "as
speedily as possible." It stressed
Israel's readiness to hold talks
without preconditions.
Peres declared himself in favor
of "international support" for
Middle East peace talks but reit-
erated Israel's opposition to an in-
ternational conference, urged by
King Hussein, in which the five
permanent members of the
United Nations Security Council,
among them the Soviet Union,
would participate as well as Arab
rejectionist states, such as Syria.
The letter expressed Israel's
hope for continued "close coopera-
tion with the U.S. on all policy
matters affecting the peace proc-
ess," and spelled out Israel's objec-
tions to the sale of sophisticated
weapons to Jordan as planned by
the Reagan Administration.
In other developments, outgo-
ing U.S. Ambassador to Israel
Samuel Lewis told a Hebrew Uni-
versity audience that the time for
shuttle diplomacy in the Middle
East has passed and peace must
now be achieved through direct
negotiations.
Meir Rosenne, Israel's Ambas-
sador to the U.S., contradicted
Peres when he said last week that
"there is absolutely no difference
between the PLO and PNC."
Vice President George Bush
told a New York synagogue audi-
ence that the U.S. is trying to find
an "international context" for Is-
rael and its Arab neighbors to
negotiate.
Also in New York, former Is-
raeli Ambassador to the UN Yosef
Tekoah said that "a confederate
connection between a Palestinian
entity and Jordan" would amount
to "creating the Lebanon situa-
tion on the West Bank."
But Detroit Congressman
George Crockett urged the Re-
agan Administration "to begin a
dialogue" with the PLO to con-
tinue the movement towards
Middle East peace talks. Crockett
added, however, that he was prop-
osing a dialogue, "not negotia-
tions or formal recognition of the
