LEBANON FIGHTING page 23
Mr. Rabin had his own
envoy at work in the field.
Mr. Rabin pooh-poohed
the reports, as did Mr. Peres
(though in a more convolut-
ed and less convincing man-
ner). Even Chairman
Arafat, after spilling that
high-level contacts had
twice taken place in
Washington, reversed him-
self and denied his own
leak.
Yet the interesting thing
about these reports is less
their strict veracity than the
reaction to them.
The Israeli press and
political establishment were
so busy speculating about
who the envoys could be
that they failed, for the
most part, to express out-
rage over the fact that such
contacts might be taking
place.
"The government has
already paid the distinctly
modest political price for
maintaining a 'back chan-
nel' to Arafat's organiza-
tion," wrote Mr. Eldar of
Ha'aretz, implying that
direct contacts with Tunis,
though perhaps still a fic-
tion, might as well exist.
However, this week talk
of the peace process, the
Christopher visit, and most
everything else in Israel
was upstaged by the fight-
ing in the north. But the
secretary of state doesn't
come this way every week,
and it's clear that a failure
to use his good offices to cre-
ate some sense of move-
ment, on some front, will
only leave the overall
process stuck deeper in the
mud.
The question is what,
realistically, to tackle first.
"Perhaps Israel would do
well to exploit the secretary
of state's visit to negotiate
with the Syrians over
Lebanon," suggested politi-
cal commentator Nahum
Barnea in Yediot Aharonot.
"We're not mad about being
on Lebanese soil, and
they're not mad about the
activities of the Hezbollah.
We wouldn't want the inci-
dents in Lebanon to disrupt
the political process or our
relations with the
Americans, and it seems
that the Syrians wouldn't
either. So presumably
there's what to talk about."
If that's sounds like just
another straw in the wind,
at least it's a fresh and topi-
cal one. And in the so-far
fruitless search for some
new handle, new angle, or
fresh start on the mired
peace process, it seems to be
as good a recommendation
as any. ❑
