Description

Not a pleasant program to watch--as the animosity between the guests mirrors all

too clearly that in the Middle East--but an instructive one. Two samples: SZ: "If it's

true that the PLO (Palestine Liberation Organization) is representative of the Palestinian people, they are then represented by a group that... each year passes again its charter that says: We will destroy the state of

Israel. Clear cut. No doubt about it." JZ: "But Israel is involved daily in the destruction

of the Palestinian national identity, occupation of Palestinian land, the deportation and

expulsion of Palestinian leaders." ... WFB: "If France was prepared to receive the

president of West Germany four or five years after the second of those terrible conquests,

and if we could receive the people who actually bombed Pearl Harbor, it seems to me that

one could hope historically that there might be some means by which the essential

requirement of both peoples could be met."
