Anti-Defamation League's leadership
conference on Monday.
The ADL's national director, Abraham
Foxman, charged that the Bush admin-
istration was changing the rules of the
game to please the Arab world.
"We set forth the parameters and the
Saudis say no, and Arafat says no, and
Egypt says no, and we keep changing
the parameters," Foxman said.
"I no longer hear the Tenet and
Mitchell formula in sequence," he said,
referring to the U.S. proposals for a
cease-fire leading to political negotia-
tions that had been framing U.S. policy.
Few believe the Arab states will per-
suade the United States to push Israel
all the way back to the pre-1967 bor-
ders, but a real understanding of the
Bush administration's "line in the sand"
has yet to emerge.
"This is a moment of flux," said
David Makovsky, a senior fellow at
the Washington Institute for Near
East Policy. "All these groups are try-
ing to fill that vacuum, and it might
take time to sort it out."
The Bush administration says it is
speaking to a diverse collection of
leaders in order to formulate a strate-
gy. Saudi Arabia's foreign minister was
in Washington on Monday and
Jordan's King Abdullah was to meet
with Bush on Wednesday.
Meanwhile, in media interviews and
meetings with administration officials,
Sharon's entourage worked on a multi-
pronged approach.
Israel Insigh
THE ISSUE
Pressure is beginning to build on
Israel from the. Bush administration
and the Europeans for the Jewish
state to attend a proposed. interna-
tional peace conference this summer.
The pressure is being applied with-
out regard to other important geopo-
litical conditions in the Middle East.
BEHIND THE ISSUE
Israel is being asked to ignore the
Palestinians' 19-month war against
her and sit down with Lasser Arafat
and his regime. In addition, Egyptian
participation
may come with condi-
.
irons unacceptable to Israel, and the
yrians already have stated they will
of attend the conference.

Top on their list was the effort to
discredit Arafat as a potential peace
partner.
The Israelis unveiled a 103-page docu-
ment, mainly of evidence captured dur-
ing Israel's anti-terror sweep in March
and April, linking Arafat to suicide
bombings and other terrorist activities.
Their goal was to convince the Bush
administration that Arafat cannot be
treated as a partner for peace, and that
Israel will negotiate only when some-
one else represents the Palestinians.
"A responsible Palestinian Authority
that can advance the cause of peace
should not be dependent on the will
of one man," Sharon said Monday at
the ADL conference.
For its part, the Bush administration
recognizes the need for better govern-
ment "within the Palestinian
Authority than what we have," a sen-
ior administration official said, with-
out mentioning Arafat by name.
Israeli leaders are encouraging the
rebuilding of the Palestinian infra-
structure, fueled in part by the United
States, with the hope that a revived
Palestinian economy may lead to
changes in political leadership.
While Sharon may not convince the
United States to bypass Arafat, it was
clear that Israel will regard with
extreme skepticism any new commit-
ments that Arafat makes.
"Israel cannot tell the Palestinians
who their leaders are," Makovsky said.
"But at the same time, if the leader is
Arafat, Israel cannot be expected to
trust any promises about the future." ❑
PALESTINIAN UNREST
from page 23
major question mark is whether Arafat
is prepared to confront the armed fun-
damentalist groups, such as Hamas
and Islamic Jihad, who would have to
be curbed for a unified Palestinian
command to emerge.
Judging by voices heard last week-
end, the Palestinian political arena is
ready for a drastic change. During a
session of the Palestinian Cabinet last
Friday, the first held since Arafat's
release, Parliamentary Affairs Minister
Amer was the spearhead of criticism.
He demanded that a new cabinet be
appointed made up of members of the
legislative council and under the coun-
cil's supervision, "just like in any other
democratic country."
Arafat responded by appointing a
"reform committee," but Amer sus-
pected that this was a way to avert real
change, and resigned. ❑
