...port city near the southern tip of the last stretch of the Sinai that is due to revert to Egyptian sovereignty next April. Each leader brought along an entourage: Begin's included Foreign Minister Yitzhak Shamir and Agriculture Minister Ariel Sharon; Sadat was aided by Foreign Minister Kamal Hassan...
...distributing antigovernment literature in 1974, Raja'i is said by fellow inmates to have begged for mercy when tortured by SAVAK, the Shah's secret police. "His behavior at the time was certainly not heroic," notes one former prisoner. Students in his math classes at the Kamal Islamic high school in Tehran describe Raja'i as "inflexible" and "humorless," qualities that he appears to have brought with him into political life. He showed an awesome highhandedness as Minister of Education, for example, by disbanding the entire provincial school system in the rebellious western region of Kurdistan...

...continuation of the talks, it means I want to negotiate. But we have differences of opinion. If Egypt's proposals on security are adopted, there will be permanent bloodshed. If we are not responsible for security, the P.L.O. will come in. Every proposal on security made by General [Kamal Hassan] Ali [Egyptian Foreign Minister] is a contradiction of the Camp David agreement. That agreement never mentions that the self-governing authority should be responsible for security. President Sadat said there should be Arab sovereignty over East Jerusalem. It is our capital city. He cannot dictate to us what...
