November 16-17, 1985

Yosef Olmert: Is Israel running out of time?

who give orders to the Shiite
fundamentalists.
On the issue of arms sales to
Jordan, Olmert said he was
"somewhat relieved that the
deal between your country
(U.S.) and Jordan is not going
through." He added that Israel
was justified in "raising hell"
about proposed U.S. plans to
supply the Jordanians with
weapons.
Olmert said it was imperative
that Israel-Egyptian relations
improve. He hoped that Egypt's
current economic and social
problems would not cause Egypt
to violate its treaty with the
Jewish state.
Olmert also said that Israel is
calling for the return of the
Egyptian ambassador to Tel
Aviv, and for Egypt to honor the
peace treaty signed with Israel.
A Labor Party adherent—his
brother is Likud MK Ehud
Olmert—he spoke at length on
the West Bank issue.

.

"We have to accept the fact
that a huge majority of the
people there are not Jewish. We
don't have to administer the
daily life of each Arab in the
West Bank. It's not our busi-
ness."
But, he asked, "how do you
live with so many people who
don't want you around?" Olmert
said that not every Palestinian
on the West Bank is a murderer
or killer. "We have to distin-
guish between those who kill
and those who'd like to talk to
us."
He flibught it was wrong for
Israel to control "other people in
the West Bank," but admitted,
"there is a lot wrong when you
can't walk in a territory which
you claim is yours. It is not just
a military question."
The professor remarked that
Israel has an agreement to "di-
rect Jordan out of its alliance
with the PLO," adding, "We are
not making any favors to any-
one. We are pursuing our own
national interest."
In defense of Jordan's King
Hussein, Olmert said the King

supports UN Resolution 242, is
not currently engaged in hostile
activities against Israel and
should not be identified with
PLO leader Yassir Arafat. "You
can't refer to all Arabs as PLO
and terrorists. It's a big mis-
take."
Olmert asserted that Israel
should back Jordanian-Israeli
peace talks, but in the end, Is-
rael will have to make "major
concessions."
Reaction to Olmert's speech
was positive. Ruth Miller, past
president of the Greater Detroit
Council, Pioneer Women/
Naamat, called the Olmert dis-
course "logical."
"He gave hope for a peaceful
settlement. He was very op-
timistic about the possibilities,"
she added.
Accountant-attorney Michael
Feldman of the anai B'rith Ac-
countants Unit found the speech
"stimulating." He said it gave
him, as an American, a better
appreciation for Israel's prob-
lems.
Leonard Antel, representing
Young Israel of Greenfield,
found the speaker knowledge-
able, but said, "I have to agree
with everything he says, but he
is propagandizing for the Israel
government."
The meeting was the first
JCCouncil delegate assembly of
the new administration.
President Leon Cohan listed the
Council's achievements since his
election as strengthening of
committees; new logo and im-
age; working with government,
university and media leadership
to make them aware of Council
activities; providing the staff
with the tools to perform their
tasks more efficiently; outreach
to other ethnic groups, particu-
larly black, Hispanic and Arab;
development of a long-range
strategic plan; and responding
to community reactions to major
Mideast crises.
"Our Detroit Jewish commu-
nity will not sit back," Cohan
said. "It will take risks."
