seen as to how he will
translate his positive attitudes toward the Jewish
community into policies
toward Israel and, in particular, toward Jerusalem."
Tanenbaum noted that the '

to "an early opportunity for
establishing a dialogue on all
questions and particularly to -
promoting peace between
Israel and her Arab neighbors." .

Paul, not only in promoting
improved understanding
between Catholics and Jews,
but as well in advancing the
cause of world peace, human
