- Story Text: Israeli Premier, Yitzhak Rabin, in Britain to attend a Socialist International Conference, spoke on Saturday (29 June) of a solution to the Arab-Israel conflict. He was addressing a group of British Members of Parliament and leading British Jews in a London hotel.
Mr. Rabin said he believed the answer was a simple on involving the formation of two States, one on the East Bank and the other on the West Bank of the River Jordan. The West Bank state would be Israeli - the East Bank, a palestinian-Jordanian state. The creation of a third state, he said, would be tantamount to planting a time bomb which might explode.
