...peace. Hussein fears that negotiations between Jerusalem and Cairo could founder unless Carter persuades the Israelis to permit self-determination for the Palestinians, at least some time in the future.

When the first meeting was over, Carter plunked down at his desk and rang up Anwar Sadat over in Cairo just as if he were on the phone to Plains. Carter filled in the Egyptian President on what he and Begin had discussed. Begin went off to visit his old friend Kissinger, then dropped in on the ailing Senator Hubert Humphrey.
