Egypt First. President Sadat and the men around him are nationalists, not Nasserists. Their revolution is over. "Unlike Nasser, Sadat does not lead us to the brink and then abandon us. He has a plan about where he wants to take us, and it is realizable," says an Egyptian editor. Above all, the Egyptians are proud that Sadat is following an Egypt-first policy and that he has defined Egypt's national interest. In contrast to Nasser, who was dedicated to a vague ideal of Arab unity, Sadat is trying to lead the Arab world by pursuing specific economic...

...between Cairo and Washington. It was a significant move, since the Egyptians acknowledged that the U.S. was still supplying arms and equipment to Israel. Relations between the U.S. and Egypt had been broken off early in the Six-Day War of 1967 by Sadat's predecessor, Gamal Abdel Nasser. He charged-wrongly, as it turned out-that planes from U.S. aircraft carriers in the Mediterranean had helped Israeli jets attack Egypt at the start of the war.

Gamal Abdel Nasser is still a hero in Cairo, but more and more Egyptians seem willing to admit his mistakes. They feel that their country has outgrown the fanaticism of Nasser's day, and they look to the more matter-of-fact Sadat for reasonable approaches. One sign of the new realism, they feel, is that even as U.S.-made tanks were positioned against them not far from the city's outskirts, representatives of an American firm were discussing details of a projected $345 million pipeline from the Gulf of Suez to the Mediterranean. Cairenes appear...

...bring food and water through Israeli lines to the beleaguered Egyptians. Beyond that mercy mission, the role of the peacekeeping force was uncertain. It faced unfortunately some of the same handicaps as did a similar force that attempted to keep the peace in Gaza and Sinai before Gamal Abdel Nasser ordered it out in May 1967, thus paving...

...escorted into this canal-side city by Egyptian officers. They kicked down the door of the former British officers' club and led us through a billiards room where the stale smell of dust and decay hung over the neatly racked cues and a picture of the late President Nasser. The rules of the game of snooker in fine curlicued print hung on the wall.
