SEPARATE TRAC1CS

from page 25

Over 70, the longtime PLO leader
is likely to remain unchallengeable as
long as he remains healthy. But once
he dies, more radical forces within the
Palestinian national movement or
among religious circles could quickly
come to the fore.
The Palestinians are citing three
reasons for the present crisis — all of
which reflect, they say, the high-hand-
ed treatment Barak has given them:
• The Palestinian Cabinet rejected
Israel's maps for an Israeli withdrawal
from an additional 6 percent of the
West Bank because the areas involved
did not include the Jerusalem suburbs
of Abu Dis and a-Ram. Israel has
repeatedly maintained that it has sole
say in determining which lands would
be turned over.
The Palestinians are also angry over
suggestions that Israel does not plan to
carry out an additional withdrawal
that is supposed to take place before a
final peace agreement is achieved.
Israeli officials have been suggesting
that this final withdrawal be subsumed
within the final-status talks.
• The Palestinians claim that
Barak's decision to defer next week's
deadline for drafting a framework
agreement — and, by implication,
the entire effort to reach this frame-
work — was made unilaterally.
The Palestinians point out that they
were skeptical when Barak originally
proposed the deadline last year. But

years of evasion," Hemi Shalev com-
mented in the tabloid Ma'ariv. "He
innocently turned on his TV at prime
time and was greeted by the face of
combat straight from hell."
Barak, who heard the news while
he was meeting King Abdullah in
Jordan, responded that Hezbollah
would "pay a heavy price for attacks
— every attack — on Israeli soldiers."
He had to find a way to hit back
hard, but without jeopardizing the
Syrian peace talks, which he still regards
as the best route out of Lebanon.
His problem is that Assad is
exploiting these diplomatic con-
straints. Jumbo jet loads of arms from
Iran to Hezbollah via
.. Damascus air-
port have been stepped up in recent
weeks. Syria can no longer claim that
it is holding Hezbollah in check.
"The accelerated pace of arms ship-
ments would be impossible without
Damascus's permission and blessing,"
