Begin’s letter was in reply to American complaints — including a cable from Carter—-that Israel’s decision to expand existing Jewish settlements in the oc cupied West Bank of the Jordan River was detrimental to the peace talks. Although contents of Begin’s letter were not made public, Cabinet Secretary Arieh Naor said it contained the same terminology Begin used at the Camp David summit, stating there would be an "addition of several hundred families to settlements in Judea and Samaria,” the biblical names for the West Bank. “We have received the reaction of both governments to the agreed draft text referred to them,” Brown said after conferring with George Sherman, official spokesman for the conference and the American delegation. “The U.S. delegation is not working on another draft now.
