Cleaver is awaiting trial, to begin May 9th, on three counts of assault with intent to kill and three counts of assault on an Okland policeman. The charges stem from a 1968 incident between the Black Panther Party and the Oakland police. Cleaver returned to the United States after fleeing to several socialist countries, saying that he had found racism abroad and that after seeing conditions else where he prefered the United States. Cleaver aaiso claims that he and his wife, Kathleen, have been converted to Christianity. Cleaver has made numer ous television and personal appearances, raising funds for his Defense Fund. Although there has been skepticism about the motives for Cleaver’s “conver sion”, a group of San Francisco evangeli cal ministers have declared “unequiv ocally” that he is “born-again”.

The Arabs for their part also find it hard to admit what, within themselves, they already know: That what the Is raelis want, what they have always wanted, are not impenetrable fortifica tions of their neighbor’s lands, but a sense of security in their own homes. As a result, for all the talk of 1977 being the year of comprehensive peace, a great historical opportunity is both likely to be grasped and liable to be lost. All sides may indeed finally get to peace talks in Geneva. But once there, the stereotypes are likely to win again. There will be impasses over kilometer posts in the Sinai, over kibbutzim in the Golan Heights, crises involving the U.S. Secretary of State over whether one Israeli cooperative or two Palestinian villages will get water from the well. But neither side will be able to make the other answer the question it dares not ask itself: What is to be done with the Palestinians? Indeed, while the Israelis reiterate their position that the Palestinians shall have nothing at all, similar sentiments are also expressing themselves in Arabic. While calling for a Palestinian national state. President Sadat suggests it might, after all, be confederated with Jordan. If the Palestinians don't want Jordan, Pres ident Asssd of Syria implies, they can feel the force of Syrian troops instead. And while embracing the principles of self- determination, King Hussein conspires with them both-and the Israelis, too-to get back his unwilling subjects. “I can see what the Israelis and the Arab states and the superpowers will get out of Geneva,” a Palestinian student at Bethlehem University recently said. “But what's in it for us?” 9. The Palestinians-who see themselves as the greatest victims of the perpetual refusal in the Mideast not just to solve the central problem but to admit it even exists-them selves hope to gain a certain advantage from the Geneva impasse: Survival, at least of a kind. "Those hopes in Syria that Arafat will be sent packing; those dreams in Israel that the PLO is finished, forget them,” remarked an American intelligence source after the Lebanon war. "The PLO has not lost, it's proved it knows how to play the game. Wait till you see how they play in Geneva.” Good Friday service planned Dr. Alan Rodda, pastor of the First Nazarene Church, will be the speaker at the annual Ecumenical Good Friday Ser vice, April 8th at the First Baptist Church (909 S.W. 11th Avenue).
