UNITED NATIONS
(JTA)—Gruesome photographs of maimed Palestinian children, women and
men, allegedly the victims of
Israeli aggression, are being
displayed here this week at
an exhibition sponsored by
the Palestine Liberation Or-,
ganization, this week.
The exhibition, titled "The
Palestinian Invalid," is part
of the events and activities of
the UN Palestine Week,
which opened here Monday.
In addition to the PLO-spon-
sored exhibition, the UN itself will present an exhibition featuring the Palestinians' culture and way of
life, and emphasizing their
"inalienable rights" to self-
determination.
Palestine Week began with
a special meeting of the
General Assembly attended
by Secretary General Kurt
Waldhiem who—as in previous years—will deliver a
short speech honoring the
yearly event. During the
week the UN also will screen
the documentary film
"Palestinians D- Hflve
Rights" which was produced
two years ago by the UN
under PLO direction and
"supervision.
On Tuesday, the General
Assembly opened, the
"Palestinian Debate"—a
yearly  exercize in  anti-
Israeli speeches, culminate
ing in an overwhelmingly-
adopted resolution calling
for the establishment of a
Palestinian state.
* Yehuda Blum, Israel's
Ambassador to the United
Nations, will present Israel's
view at the debate claiming
that the Palestinians already
have a state of their
own—Jordan—and that the
autonomy talks, currently *
underway between Israel,
Egypt and the United States,
are the solution to the Palestinian problem.
Israeli diplomats at the
UN pointed out that beginning with Palestine Week,
LONDON (JTA)-
A spokesman for President
Hosni Mubarak told an international Jewish audience
here that the new Egyptian
leader fully shared the commitment to peace with Israel
of his late predecessor, Anwar Sadat.
Osama El Baz, President
Mubarak's Cabinet Secretary, was addressing the
40th anniversary dinner of
the Institute of Jewish Affairs, research arm of the
World Jewish Congress.
"Despite the gap.that still
exists between ourselves and
the Israeli government over
-Palestinian autonomy,
peace has become a fact of
life," he said to loud applause. "Very few Egyptians
are questioning the wisdom
of pioneering this historic reconciliation between Arabs,
and Israelis."
El Baz, who accompanied
Sadat on his momentous
visit to, Jerusalem, said that
the views of Sadat and*-
Mubarak on major issues
were the same—and the
commitment-are the same.'
Peace, he said,was the.only
Israel will be under relentless fire in the form of anti-
Israeli resolutions in the Assembly for the next three
weeks.    -
In addition to an anti-
Israel resolution at the conclusion of the "Palestinian
Debate," there will also be
anti-Israel resolutions at the
end of the debate on the
"Mideast Question" and on
various other items before
the Assembly, such ' as
Israel's relations with South
Africa, Israel's treatment of
the Palestinian population
on the West Bank and Gaza
Strip, and Israel's archaeological excavation.
The debate on the "Mideast
Question" is scheduled to begin Dec. 7.
The Mideast will also be on
the agenda of the Security
Council Dec. 18 when the
mandate of the United Nations Interim Force in
Lebanon (UNIFIL) will have
to be extended for another
six months. Diplomats said
they do not expect any problems over the extension of
the mandate-

WASHINGTON D.C.-
With Soviet recognition of
Yasir Arafat's Palestine
Liberation Organization
(PLO), the death of Egypt;s
President Sadat, and the
battle in Congress over the
sale of $8.5 billion in American arms for Saudi Arabia,
the Middle East has become
the new focal point of American foreign policy.
In an exclusive interview—the first on the Middle
East since he won the Presi
dency—Ronald Reagan reveals his strategy for bringing peace to that troubled
area.
Here are my questions and
the President's replies:
Q: In the aftermath of
President Sadat's death, do
you think Egypt will adopt a
new foreign policy?
A: So far, every indication -
we have is that there won't
be. After Sadat's funeral,
Secretary of State Haig and
others had top-level meetings with the new Egyptian
leader. President Mubarak
asured us he intends to continue and follow  through

with the plans laid out by
President Sadat.'
Q: What about America's
policy?
A: Some people say we
don't have a policy in the
Middle East. In fact, we've
always .had a policy. There
are people in the press who
say you don't have a policy
unless you keep telling them
what you're doing, so they
can put it on the front pages.
I don't happen to believe
that's a good way to conduct
foreign policy. I believe in
quiet diplomacy—for example, the fact that we had the
Saudis' help in arranging a
ceasefire in Lebanon. We
didn't have to get on the
front page to do that. That
was quiet diplomacy.
Q: What's your next step?
A: We'll continue what
we've been doing, which is
not to impose a settlement on
the Mideast. We want to be
in a position to help,
wherever and whenever we
can, to build on the Camp
David process and bring
peace to the region.
