A TISKET A TASKET (313) 661.4789 Packaged and Delivered 7 Days a Week U.S. Leaders Meet ith PLO Official Jerusalem (JTA) — Leaders of organized American Jewry this week had their first official meeting ever with Faisal Husseini, the guiding force behind the Pa- lestinian delegation to the Middle East peace talks, the Jewish Telegraphic Agency has learned. The meeting, which was private and off the record, began a little after 11 p.m. Sunday and concluded after midnight at Husseini's headquarters, the New Orient House, in eastern Jerusalem. - According to a source who was present, Mr. Husseini, who is a senior adviser to the Palestinian negotiating delegation, though not an of- ficial member of it, gave a presentation to dozens of members of the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish organiza- tions, who were here for their annual fact-finding mission. He explained to them the steadily declining support in the Palestinian street for the peace process, which hit a new low after the "shock of the deportations" carried out by the Israeli govern- ment. But Mr. Husseini, who is "We now offer monuments, and assistance with selecting appropriate inscriptions for everlasting memorials." said to be close to the moderate wing of the Palestine Liberation Organ- ization, reportedly said he believed returning to the negotiating table is key. "Even though he felt the issue of the 400 deportees was a clear violation of international law and con- tinued to insist on Israel's acceptance" of a U.N. Security Council resolution demanding the deportees' return, "he was willing to accept commitments about the future of deportations in order to smooth the way to negotiations," said the source. In other words, "he reduc- ed the problem of the 400 to the principle of deportations in the future." Mr. Husseini also re- portedly criticized the cur- rent Israeli negotiating delegation's position on an autonomy agreement in the territories as "reflecting too much of the previous for- mulation" under Likud Prime Minister Yitzhak Shamir. The "emotional high point, however, was not about poli- tics but the role of (Palestin- ian) children and the impact nn rhildrn of tho 1= ., - violence, the source said. 26640 Greenfield Rd.
