ARTHUR J. MAGIDA
Special to The Jewish News
A
s Allied bombs keep
pounding Iraq and
ground troops are
preparing for battle, seers
are looking into the future,
trying to make some sense of
the Middle East once the
smoke clears and the heal-
ing begins. Common to all
the schemes offered for the
region is an Iraq rendered
more or less militarily impo-
tent — and a settlement of
Israeli-Palestinian tensions.
New York Times columnist
Leslie Gelb revealed that the
two tracks Bush Ad-
ministration officials are
considering to bring peace to
Palestinians "will displease
knee-jerk advocates of an
international Mideast con-
ference and give Yassir
Arafat a well-deserved dip-
lomatic body blow."
One track, according to
Mr. Gelb, would pave the
way for direct negotiations
between Israel and Syria;
the second and parallel track
would consist of "a generous
Israeli offer to West Bank
and Gaza Strip Palestinians
for direct talks. The aim
would be to make it temp-
ting and possible for Pales-
tinian locals to split from
PLO headquarters in
Tunis."
Mr. Gelb considers Israel
and Syria to be "the right
partners" to begin negotia-
tions . . . (since) they hold the
key to future stability in the
region."
The "pivotal question" is
whether Syrian President
Hafez Assad will negotiate
with Israel. Mr. Gelb bets he
will since the Syrian is "a
consummate strategist
whose dispatch of Syrian
troops to defend Saudi
Arabia shows an apprecia-
tion of new strategic
realities . . . To rebuild his
shattered economy, he can
turn only to Saudi Arabia.
The Saudis can use this
dependence to nudge him
toward talks with Israel.
And it is to Israel that he
must turn to fulfill his
dream of restoring the Golan
Heights to Syrian sovereign-
ty."
In the New York Post, syn-
dicated columnist Jeane
Kirkpatrick says the
Mideast's central problem is
its "longstanding and deeply
rooted habit of violent
politics."
"The most optimistic fac-
for for the post-war world,"
she states, "is precisely that
PLO and Iraqi leaders have
been thoroughly discredited
by their role in this costly
conflict. This fact should
weaken the hold of violent
politics on the region . . . "
After the war, Mrs.
Kirkpatrick expects new Pa-
lestinian leaders to usher in
"a new beginning for a real
Arab-Israeli peace process"
and for Kuwait and Saudi
Arabia to "presumably have
a new appreciation of the
importance of peace and
nonviolence. They, too, just
might be ready for peace
with Israel."
In Newsweek, former Sec-
retary of State Henry Kiss-
inger proposes an interim
solution which would
"reduce the amount of ter-
ritory Israel is asked to give
up in return for something
less than formal peace."
Elements in the Kissinger
plan include:
• A conference, under the
aegis of the UN secretary-
general, of the United
States, Israel and Arab
states allied with the U.S. in
the Persian Gulf crisis.
• "Moderate" Arab
nations would be trustees for
territories returned to Arab
control for a specified
amount of time. Under UN
supervision, these Arab
states would demilitarize
the territories. Demilitariza-
tion would be verified by
Israel.
• Israel would surrender
all of Gaza and the most
heavily populated areas of
the West Bank, retaining
only territory "essential to
its security."
• Government ar-
rangements in these ter-
ritories would be established
by agreement. For the
interim period, the ter-
ritories would not comprise a
separate state. "As a prac-
tical matter," writes Mr.
Kissinger, "the trustee
powers would undoubtedly
establish an administration
containing individuals ac-
ceptable to the PLO."
And the British magazine,
The Economist, speaking,
apparently, from the van-
tage point of wisdom gained
from the rise and fall of the
British Empire, commented
that "the people of the Arab
East have done a rotten job,
since independence, of
building a settled system of
nations. The West can help
to reverse obvious wrongs, at
