U.S. plan hints at wide Lebanon peace conference

United States officials disclosed a far reaching Lebanon peace plan that would include all belligerents such as the PLO and Israel, with no direct negotiations by the U.S. or Israel. The plan aims to disengage Syrian troops, foster a lasting truce, and involve leadership from the PLO while excluding only the few insurgent thugs. Separately in Alexandria, Egyptian and Israeli negotiators resumed talks on Palestinian autonomy as rounds six opened amid a clash over land purchases in the West Bank and Gaza. A wind squall at Cedar Rapids knocked 17 light planes loose years earlier.

Opponents argued the bill safeguards canal rights and could thwart surrender, while leaders urged caution to preserve congressional approval before Monday.
