CREATING A HIGHER STANDARD

The Model Year 2000

with Egypt. We have a bitter normal-
ization with Jordan. But I am a great
believer in our coexistence with
Palestinians.
"The two sides in each country
are looking for the fruits of peace.
They're not satisfied. Neither the
Israelis nor the Arabs."
Among Peas attributes as a
reporter, along with her fluency in
Arabic language, is her acute famil-
iarity with popular opinion in Arab
nations. She reads Arabic newspapers
regularly and speaks often with
Arabs, from the upper echelons of
power to everyday citizens.
Just as much as her interviews
with Egyptian, Jordanian, Lebanese
and Palestinian leaders, Peri takes
pride in conversing with Arabs in
their universities, marketplaces and
airports.
This outlook has earned her the
reputation as a source on Arab soci-
ety as well as the peace process.
To her, the contact she's enjoyed
with Arabs and Israelis alike reflects
her basic interest in her neighbors.
"I like people," she says. "I meet
people, I listen to them. I'm very
curious to listen, to hear what they
want to say. I also use my eyes. I
walk in the streets; I meet people; I
get an impression. And I read a lot."
Although her nationality and reli-
gion pose problems for Arabs who
might otherwise speak with her, Peri
expressed great fondness for Arab
culture and people.
Her affection remains strong for
the place where she first traveled to
cover peace talks. Since then, she
says, she's been "dreaming of living
in Cairo. Because Cairo is my first
love, and I like Egypt very much."
In spite of her attachment to
Egypt, she couldn't really envision
herself living there: "I don't think
that they would appreciate me very
much, being an Israeli."
Peas career, with the many assign-
ments in neighboring countries,
allows her little time for vacations in
those same places, she concedes.
While in Michigan she was curious
to visit the local Arab American
community as well as the Jewish one,
catch up with a few.acquaintances,
perhaps relax at a Middle Eastern
restaurant. But she says she wouldn't
probably have the opportunity to
explore on her own time.
As if to prove her point, a car
pulled up in front of the hotel short-
ly thereafter. Peri stepped in, and
went to another gathering before fly-
ing to New York. II
