Dear Colleague:
I would like to invite you to attend two sessions of our
continuing Core Seminar on "Security in the Middle East and
Gulf Region in the 1980s." These separate sessions deal with
Andrew J. Goodpaster

dimensions of the conflict which extend beyond the Palestinian
problem which was the subject of our initial session. Due to
problems of scheduling and political principle, we were not
able to put these sessions together or to announce them earlier.
The first will focus on a paper written by Mohamed Sid-Ahmed,
Egyptian journalist and author and currently a Guest Scholar at
The Wilson Center. This seminar will be on Tuesday, 6 October
1981, from 5:30-10:00 p.m. in the Wilson Center library. As the
author of the first Arab call for peace with Israel (After the
Guns Fall Silent, 1976), Sid-Ahmed is a firm opponent of the
Camp. David treaties and is currently an involuntary political
exile from his country. His paper is entitled "The Arab-Israeli
Conflict: Prospects of a Comprehensive Settlement," and copies
are being reproduced for circulation.
