Differing with Egyptian President Anwar Sadat, who has staked his repu tation on the success of the Camp David peace process, Fahd branded that plan a failure and called on the U.S. to move on toward some broader form of discussion...
Before he left Washington, there was a warmup for the foreign policy debate that will soon take center stage. President Anwar Sadat of Egypt arrived in Washington, the first in a series of postvacation Middle Eastern visitors who will include Israel's Prime Minister Menachem Begin, Jordan's King Hussein and Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Fahd. Sadat was met on the White House lawn with great flourish: herald trumpeters played an original composition called A Salute for a New Beginning, and Reagan called the Egyptian "a man whom history will undoubtedly label one of the 20th...

But suddenly last week, with no explanation, he canceled his trip. Four days before, a Palestinian guerrilla named Mohammed Daoud Mohammed Auda was shot while sitting in a Warsaw hotel café, but survived. The two incidents reflected the violent and convoluted world of the terrorist, where motives are often murky and alliances shift rapidly. Indeed, intelligence experts believe that the week may also have marked the reappearance, after seven...
