FRIDAY, APRIL 1, 1988

erusalem — When Is-
raeli Prime Minister
Yitzhak Shamir
returned from his visit to
Washington last week, he was
greeted by ecstatic supporters
bearing banners that pro-
claimed, "Blessed be he who
returns without a con-
ference."
The conference they were
referring to was the proposed
international Middle East
peace conference, which they
and Shamir strenuously op-
pose. Their jubilation,
however, may have been
premature. The issue is
neither dead nor buried.
Last weekend, Secretary of
State George Shultz had a
ground-breaking meeting
with two senior members of
the Palestine National Coun-
cil (PNC), Edward Said and
Ibrahim Abu Lughod, and
then announced that he
would, after all, return to the
Mideast to resume his shuttle
diplomacy.
Shultz's meeting with Said
and Lughod put a chill into
his relations with Shamir.
Israeli officials regard the
PNC as an extension of the
hated PLO and, hence, per-
ceive the meeting as a breach
of Washington's 1975 commit-
ment not to talk to the PLO
until it recognizes Israel's
right to exist.
Israeli sources noted that in
the past United States of-
ficials had confined them-
selves to meeting with
Palestinians from the ad-
ministered territories.
Shultz's weekend meeting
with Said and Lughod, they
said, represents an important

j

departure and indicates a
step by the United States in
the direction of the PLO
itself.
Shamir lost no time in lodg-
ing an official complaint
about the meeting with
United States Ambassador to
Israel Thomas Pickering.
Shamir's objections to the
Shultz-proposed conference —
that it would be hostile to
Israel, that it would impose
an unacceptable settlement,
that it would open the door to
a return of the Soviets —
apparently failed to move
Shultz, who must have been
persuaded that this frame-
work represented the only
hope of getting the Arabs to
even consider talking to the
Israelis.
According to reports in
Jerusalem, the second Shultz
shuttle within a month will
involve guarantees to both
Shamir and King Hussein of
Jordan.
He will guarantee Israel
that the international con-
ference will not be of a co-
ercive nature, that it will not
have the power to impose a
settlement or to veto agree-
ments reached in direct
negotiations between the
parties.
At the same time, he will
guarantee Jordan that Israel
will not abandon the process
after reaching the interim
stage — Palestinian auton-
omy in the occupied ter-
ritories and that negotiations
will continue until the final
status of the territories is
resolved.
Those guarantees would
seem to satisfy the major
dilemmas of both sides, but in
fact they will satisfy no one.

deep and genuine reserva-
