The Camp David Accords--negotiated under President Carter's aegis in 1978 and given flesh the following year, again through President Carter's efforts (cf. Firing Lines #S361 and #S362)--were widely said to be unraveling. This show offers a thoughtful discussion of a highly emotional problem with, as WFB puts it, "two men who are devoted friends of Israel but who can talk about the subject without shouting." The specific point at issue was Menachem Begin's intransigence over West Bank settlements, but, as Mr. Perlmutter points out, Begin's behavior, and indeed the whole Middle Eastern scene, has to be viewed in the world context: "In the last analysis--God forgive me for this--I really think the Jews are irrelevant, I think the Arabs are irrelevant, I think the settlements are irrelevant, I think the homeland is irrelevant.... It's the United States and the Soviet Union, as primitive as a High Noon movie, walking down that street."
