Rabin Says Israel Will Deal With Palestinians
Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin told Congress his government will work with Palestinian representatives linked to Jordan but rejected negotiating with the PLO. He said the PLO charter calls for Israel’s destruction, adding no honest person can blame Israel for resisting actions seen as a national death. He urged Arab state acceptance before the Palestinian issue can be constructively tackled. The joint session saw scattered applause and many empty seats, with Sen. James Abourezk absent without explanation.
