Jordan's Queen: Israel 'A Fact Of Life' BY NEIL REISNER Special to The Jewish News "Israel must face the real- ity that war will never win the peace it must have to secure its future," Jordan's Queen Noor al Hussein re- cently told Princeton Univer- sity's graduating class of 1985. "Israel must face the in- eradicable human presence of millions of Palestinians re- solved to regain their rights in their ancestral homeland," said the American-born Queen. "It must make its choice: either continued conflict or permanent peace and securi- ty; either existence with honor or the total erosion of its founding principles. "Many Arab states," she said, have accepted "what Jordan had long realized — that Israel was a fact of life in the Middle East." "We in the Middle East — Arabs and Israelis alike — cannot continue to expend our precious resources — human and material — on a conflict that no one can afford." The queen's visit was at the invitation of Princeton's senior class. It was part of a tour of U.S. campuses ap- parently intended to influ- ence public opinion in favor of the recent agreement be- tween Jordanian King Hus- sein and Palestine Liberation Organization Chairman Yasir Arafat to pursue a joint strategy for peace. The queen spoke about the Jordanian-PLO agreement concluded in February, but did not refer to subsequent diplomatic moves by Hussein and Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak. She said she was bringing no messages to the U.S. government. "I am not really here to convey messages to the ad- ministration as much as to convey messages to people, the students at universities and the people of the United States,' she said as she walked with her entourage between campus engage- ments before her evening speech. "I'm trying to clarify some of the political developments in the Arab world," she said, "and to stress on a philosoph- ical level what we're hoping for — what motivates us, our objectives and all the states in the region." The 33-year-old queen was born ,Lisa Najeeb Halaby in Washington, daughter of Na- jeeb Halaby, former chair- man and chief executive of- ficer of Pan American World Airways. The queen was a member of Princeton's first co-educa- tional class. She graduated with a bachelor's degree in ar- chitecture and urban plan- ning. After graduation, ac- cording to her official bio- graphy, she worked on urban planning and design projects in the United States, Aus- tralia, Iran, Jordan and elsewhere in the Mideast. She was the director of planning and design projects for Alia, the Royal Jordanian Airline, before marrying King Hus- sein in 1978. The queen's visit came on the heels of a flurry of dip- lomatic activity that follow- ed the Hussein-Arafat agree- ment. Their original initiative was based on a proposed in- ternational peace conference leading to creation of a con- "To those in the West who seek security for Israel, we say this Arab commitment would guarantee the security of Israel and the Jordan-Palestine confederation." federation of Jordanian and Palestinian states in what is now the West Bank and Jor- dan. Meeting later with Mubarak, Hussein agreed to a modified plan under which a joint Jordanian-Palestinian delegation, which would ex- clude PLO members would first meet with U.S. officials in Washington. This would be followed by direct negotia- tions with Israel. The queen used her Prince- ton visit to reiterate Jordan's call for renewed direct U.S. participation in the peace pro- cess, which she said is in- creasingly urgent. "I think the United States has a role to play, an impor- tant role. I think we all have important roles to play, each one in its own way," she said before her speech. "But I think that together we must each play that role now." A tall, striking blonde who looks and sounds more like the students to whom she spoke than the consort of a Middle Eastern monarch, the queen — her Arabic name, Noor al Hussein, means "Light of Hussein" — fre- quently referred to the tur- bulence of the '60s as she urged her audience to "Grasp every opportunity to under- take good and timely action." "My generation of stu- dents did not 'rebel' against the American system," she said. "We did not seek blind- ly to ravage its political, economic and social orders, but rather to humanize them — to make the reality of American life synonymous with the promise of American ideals." Queen Noor said she is "convinced that the Ameri- can experience of the '60s and '70s is directly relevant to the challenge of peacemaking in the '80s." "The Palestinians and the majority of Arab states," she said, "have come to terms in the past decade with the chal- lenge and reality of Israel. We have made our choice." The queen charged Israel with pursuing a policy of "military activism and ter- ritorial expansion in the name of security. It has reaped, in- stead, greater insecurity. To- day, in assessing the extent of its dismal failure, Israel need only consider its rash in- cursion into Lebanon where, in pursuing one adversary, it has only created another." The current Jordanian- PLO initiative, she said, "represents an important breakthrough in the Arab search for peace . It is an in- itiative that holds enormous promise if it is received with the trust and good will with which it has been offered:: "To those in the West who seek Arab recognition of Israel's existence, we say this Arab commitment offers mutual recognition of Israeli and Palestinian national rights," the queen continued. "To those in the West who seek security for Israel, we say this Arab commitment would guarantee the security of Israel and the Jordan- Palestine confederation." The United States, she said, "has proven its deep commitment" to "the home- land of the Jewish people." But "there are still the millions of Palestinians who look to America to translate its declarations into concrete policies and to apply the prin- ciple of self-determination to all people." Expressing the fear that "we are moving toward a potential global conflagra- tion," Queen Noor said Jor- dan is "acutely aware that no country today can assure its security by military might. While we are realistically con- cerned about strengthening our defense capabilities, we know that the only lasting security lies in peace." UN Leader Decries Bias United Nations — United Na- tions Secretary General Javier Perez de Cuellar has voiced his disapproval of the frequent ex- pressions of anti-Semitism at UN meetings, the World Jewish Congress (WJC) reported last month. Peres de Cuellar, In a reply to 94 members of Congress who had, complained to the UN leader about biased outbursts from Saudi delegate Maarouf Al Dawalibi, called the remarks "racist, shameful and totally unacceptable."
