statements, unprecedented statements, which, when taken by them-
selves, were dear, forthright and without the usual Arafat ambiguity,
at least in their English rendition. But, the U.N.'s simultaneous trans-
lator was no match to Arafat's flowery Arabic.
The few who will analyze the speech as a whole, will readily recog-
nize the inherent double talk and double cross so typical of Arafat-
yea-and-nay.
Still, there is no escape from acknowledging the fact that Arafat did
come forth with some clear statements reaching out further than any
PLO leader has ever done before. He did call outright for the leaders
of Israel to come forth and talk peace with him, even if with a few
suspicious qualifiers such as "away from the arrogance..'. away from
oppression ... etc."
Pause and contemplation should follow. Arafat and his speech
should be studied in depth. Perhaps there is here a profound change
that might open the door for peace in the Holy Land. Time is also
needed since, true to form, Arafat may yet distance himself from his
own bold statements delivered in Geneva. After all, he can do so with
alacrity. The differences between the Spoken Arabic and the Written
Arabic are substantial, and the "official" English rendition is no match i
wisdom of the experts from the Egyptian Foreign Ministry who helped
shape this speech.

be more satisfied than over that their man said what they have always
claimed he has meant. It was a speech for all seasons, and it contained

Editor's note: Rumors are rife that if Yassir Arafat is not successful in
meeting with Israeli representatives, he plans to convert all Palestinians
to Judaism through Rabbi Meir Kahane. Unfortunately in this case, since
the rabbi is Orthodox, the former Palestinians would be able to go to
Israel through present or future Laws of Return.

Mr. Arafat's speech delivered at the General Assembly of the U.N.
