West Bank Peace,
The Sequel
Israel and the Palestinians walk the second mile on
, the road to peace, but land mines abound.
STAFF AND WIRE REPORTS
wo down, one to go. The
lengthy West Bank with-
drawal agreement initialed
on Sunday by the Israelis
and the Palestinians — after
more than 80 hours of tense ne-
gotiations — makes up in fine de-
tail what it may lack in historic
sweep.
It was the second of three
planned peace agreements be-
tween the two parties. The first,
. far more dramatic treaty signed
in Washington in September
1993, spelled out a general out-
line and timetable for an Israeli
withdrawal from mostly Pales-
tinian areas of Israel by the end
of the century. That pact, whose
implementation began in May
1994, called for limited Palestin-
ian self-rule in the Gaza Strip
and the West Bank town of Jeri-
Cho.
But as each treaty has grown
in detail, its difficulty level has
increased exponentially. The
third agreement — to be negoti-
ated starting in May, and signed
by the end of the decade —
should prove to be the hardest of
all, especially when it comes to
ironing out the fate of Jerusalem,
which both sides continue to
claim as their own.
The latest pact was initialed
by Israeli Foreign Minister Shi-
mon Peres and Palestinian Lib-
eration Organization Chairman
Yassir Arafat in the town of Taba,
Egypt, just two hours before
(Erev) Rosh Hashanah. The for-
mal signing was scheduled to
take place on the White House
lawn Thursday.
The agreement lays out in ex-
cruciating detail exactly how the
State of Israel and the Palestin-
ian Authority plan to disengage
themselves from the unpleasant
business of commingled rule in
most of the West Bank.
That uncoupling will begin in
about two weeks, following the
signing of the agreement by the
Israeli Knesset and the Pales-
tinian Authority. Despite vocal
protests from opposition factions
in both organizations, the two ap-
provals were expected earlier this
week --barring acts of terrorism
by either side, intended to derail
the nascent plan.
"Ladies and gentlemen," Mr.
Peres said in an emotional voice
at a ceremony Sunday afternoon,
"let's face it, what we are doing
today is not a normal political or
economic enterprise. It is history
in the real meaning of the word."
The hard-fought plan offers "a
real opportunity to change the
course of hopelessness and des-
peration and bloodshed into
something more promising, more
noble, more humane," he said.
Mr. Arafat, for his part, was
a bit more circumspect, referring
to "our prisoners, to those who
were injured," the New York
Times reported. Still, he offered
a wish of "shana tova" to the Is-
raelis.
What these two longtime ene-
mies have agreed to is a 400-page
document that deals with every-
thing from security arrange-
ments and a transfer of civil
authority, to interim elections,
economic relations and legal af-
fairs.
The first visible sign of the deal
will come in two weeks, when the
Israeli army begins withdrawing
from the West Bank towns of
Jenin, Nablus, Tulkarm,
Qalqilya, Ramallah and Bethle-
hem, as well as 450 towns and
villages. A 12,000-member Pales-
tinian police force will take over
these areas.
Also, the plan calls for inter-
nationally monitored elections for
an interim Palestinian Council
in the West Bank starting 22

days after the Israeli army with-
draws. Because a road must be
built out of Hebron, the only West
Bank town with Israeli settlers,
the election isn't expected to hap-
pen until the spring.
On the issue of Hebron, which
houses some 450 Israeli settlers,
the compromise was the most tor-
tured. The city is to be divided
into three zones, controlled vari-
ously by the Palestinians, the Is-
raelis, and the two entities jointly.
An Israeli Embassy briefing on
Hebron indicates the touchy na-
ture of the compromise, and hints
at the troubles to come in other
settler-populated areas:
"In view of the Jewish presence
in the heart of Hebron and the
sensitive historical and religious
aspects involved, special arrange-
ments will apply," the briefing
