The two former prisoners of conscience met privately for half an hour at Mandela's hotel after a series of on-again, off- again arrangements that the Anti- Defamation League of B'nai B'rith negotiated with Mandela's entourage. Although Sharansky par- ticipated in the meeting as a private person, he served as the de facto ambassador of Jews who had been disturb- ed by Mandela's earlier praise of PLO leader Yassir Arafat, Libya's Moammar Qaddafi and Cuba's Fidel Castro as comrades in arms. In a nationally televised program two weeks ago, at the beginning of his trium- phant U.S. tour, Mandela said the African National Congress identifies with the PLO, "because, just like ourselves, they are fighting for the right of self- deter- mination." Mandela, who is deputy president of the ANC, left immediately after the meeting with the former refusenik. Sharansky then conducted an impromptu news conference, which he cut short, because, he said, "Shabbat is starting in 20 minutes, and I don't want to go by foot for two hours." Sharansky said that Mandela had embraced Arafat, literally and figuratively, because the PLO had aided him in difficult times. He reported that Mandela did not accept his argument that the PLO and the Arab nations are out to destroy Israel. "I pointed out that the Western countries in World War II were allies of Stalin and that for a long time they didn't understand the real nature of the Soviet regime," said Sharansky. In the same vein, he said, when it becomes clear to Mandela . that Arafat and Tom Tugend writes from Los Angeles. Qaddafi are men who can destroy but not create, the South African leader will start to change his attitude. Sharansky also told Mandela that Jews had backed the struggle for human rights over the cen- turies and that they had not weakened their support by settling in Israel. These differences notwith- standing, Sharansky said his meeting with Mandela and his wife, Winnie, was "very warm." Mandela said that he had avidly read Sharansky's book, Fear No Evil, while imprisoned. "Despite different cir- cumstances, we found that our experiences as political prisoners were more or less the same," Sharansky said. "We agreed that to survive, there could be no com- promise with our basic prin- ciples and beliefs." Sharansky said he invited Mandela to visit Israel. The black leader said he would be happy to consider an offi- cial invitation. Earlier, during a reception at City Hall, Rabbi Harvey Fields met briefly with Mandela in his capacity as co-chairman of the Black- Jewish Clergy Alliance of Los Angeles. When Fields told Mandela that he had just come from a meeting of the Reform movement's Central Con- ference of American Rabbis in Seattle, which had reaf- firmed its support for him and the ANC, Mandela re- sponded warmly, "Your support means a great deal, more than you can possibly imagine." ❑ Jewish Telegraphic Agency Israel Bars Cat Stevens Tel Aviv (JTA) — Yusef Islam — pop singer Cat Stevens, who converted to Moslem Fundamentalism some years ago and changed his name — was denied en- try to Israel on Monday for "security reasons" as an "undesirable alien." Interior Ministry sources said Islam was black-listed because of virulently anti- Israel and anti-Semitic statements he made during a visit here two years ago and on other occasions abroad. He has also spoken out in favor of the Palestine Lib- eration Organization.
