Tel Aviv, March 21—Itisonno account to be understood that all Israelis believe that Sadat has successfully performed a prefrontal lobotomy on the Egyptian people, or submitted to one himself; or, indeed, that the Egyptians are any less suspicious of some of the imperatives of Zionism as understood by some of its exegetes. Consider, for instance, Samuel Katz.

Katz was born in Johannesburg, in 1914, but his heart was always in Palestine. By the time he and his boss and best friend, Menahem Begin, entered the Knesset, Katz had fought with the Irgun terrorists, had edited a Jewish paper in London. Now he has broken with Begin, whose private counselor he once was, over the issue of the peace treaty.
