PLO under pressure to scale down aims for 1976

BEIRUT Lebanon The Palestine Liberation Organization once a rising military power after defeats in Jordan 1970 and Lebanon this year faces Arab pressure to curb political goals. Arafat accepted a Palestinian state in the West Bank and Gaza and openness to a single Arab delegation to Geneva signaling a retreat from a secular all Palestine vision. Syria backs Saiga with 8300 troops in Beirut and 2000 in Nabatieh Saida, aiming to purge PLO leaders. Arafat clings to veto rights while Arabs push negotiations with Israel amid losses in Lebanon. The PLO’s strength wanes as fighters return to camps, markets bustle, and Syrian influence grows.
