There was a documentary on the BBC last month, 'Israel and the
Arabs: Elusive Peace'*, where they showed some of what went on behind
the scenes, & some interviews with the main players.
The programme showed a meeting with Israeli & Palestinian ministers at
the Aqaba summit, I think, & it was incredible, really, that cameras
were allowed in, I thought any meeting would have been completely
private. Anyway, Mohammed Dahlan** managed to buttonhole Mofaz, & gave
him a polite, & lengthy lecture in fluent Hebrew about the need for
serious negotiations, &tc. I don't know how much Mofaz took on board,
but it was a joy to watch, Mofaz couldn't get away, or get a word in.
