Jordan’s Prime Minister told the Parliament at Amman yesterday that the Arabs would have to abandon their policies of the last 19 years and reorganize their thinking on Israel.
Premier Saad Jumaa blamed Arab leaders and their misleading propaganda for the “catastrophe” which had befallen Jordan. He singled out Ahmed Shukairy, head of the Palestine Liberation Organization, for censure, asserting that PLO boasts that they would finish off the Jews bad helped Israel to rally world public opinion. Jumaa urged an Arab summit meeting to recast Arab thinking and policies on Israel.
The London Daily Telegraph quoted Premier Jumaa as asserting that a secret organization of “Jordanian nationalists” had been established to assassinate Palestinian Arabs who agreed to sell their land or properties to Israel.
