interview ever published" on
the PLO's stance toward
Israel, the magazine's current
issue features a five-page in-
terview with Nabil Shaath,
whom Tikkun identified as
chairman of the Political
Committee of the Palestine
National Committee (PNC)
and "a close adviser to Yassir
Arafat."
lb Tikkun editor Michael
Lerner, who interviewed
Shaath while he was on a re-
cent visit to the United
States, the PNC leader in-
sisted that his organization
had offered Israel an "un-
equivocal" olive branch last
November when it said it
would settle for a Palestinian
state - in the West Bank and
Gaza and would suspend ter-
rorist attacks against Israeli
civilians. The PNC, he said,
expected that this stand
would be "reciprocated" by
"Israel's recognizing our
right to the smaller part of
our land, which was occupied
in 1967 — a part that is 22
percent of the land that was
Palestine before 1948."
Shaath assured Lerner that
any Palestinian state would
be contingent upon mutual
security for it and Israel —
"In no way do we want a state
that would perpetuate war in
that part of the world" — and
that it would not be used as
a staging ground to "liberate"
the rest of pre-1948 Palestine.
Shaath said the PNC seeks
"a lasting peace, not a
piecemeal, stage-by-stage ap-
proach," but he conceded that
"if we are talking at the emo-
tional level, there is no way
we can assure people just by
swearing it."
Shaath denied that several
Palestinian attacks into
Israel from southern Lebanon
since the PNC's November
renunciation of terrorism
have been terrorist. The PNC,
he said, never committed
itself to stopping either the
intifada or "the legitimate
resistance to Israel's military
presence in southern
Lebanon."
"The word 'terrorism' can-
not possibly be used to apply
to military attacks against
military forces," he said.
" 'Terrorism' can only be
understood as attacks against
enemy civilians or against
uninvolved third parties."
Asked whether he accepted
"the legitimacy of Zionism,"
Shaath responded that "the
question is whether we can
have two people who are will-
ing to respect each other and
share a mutual quest for a
better future — 'not' whether
we are going to accept each
other's political ideologies of
the past or present." ❑
