The article reports on the 1982 meeting between Israeli journalist Uri Avnery and Palestinian Liberation Organization chief Yasir Arafat. Avnery concluded the meeting by saying that one day the two sides will live in peace in two separate states. Arafat corrected him by saying no, one state. Avnery, Israel's prime political agitator, was a member of the Knesset in the 1960s, and drew political criticism by calling for a Palestinian state and equality for Arabs.
