Appearances
America has suggested a peace conference, but no one can agree on who should attend or the terms for discussion.
voice-verified
No progress is being made, so Sadat has decided to take a different approach.
voice-verified
He starts his speech to the Egyptian parliament by discussing the Sinai and the necessity of a just peace.
voice-verified
Everyone can agree with that.
voice-verified
But then Sadat says that he is prepared to go anywhere to secure that peace, even to Jerusalem.
voice-verified
There's a ripple of confused whispers through the hall.
voice-verified
Egypt doesn't recognize Israel, and it certainly doesn't accept that Jerusalem is its capital.
voice-verified
So some in the audience believe they've misheard Sadat.
voice-verified
Others assume it was just a rhetorical flourish.
voice-verified
But Sadat has not been misheard, and he isn't being rhetorical.
voice-verified
He's been considering this move for months.
voice-verified
Back-channel talks have established that both Sadat and Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin are willing to meet, in principle at least.
voice-verified
Now Sadat has made his offer public and put pressure on Begin to respond.
voice-verified
Soon, there's a hurried debate in the Israeli cabinet, and then Begin sends the invitation.
voice-verified
Only 10 days after his speech, President Sadat lands in Israel.
voice-verified
It's an achievement of diplomacy just to get this far, but tensions remain high.
voice-verified
The Israeli military is on alert, and snipers watch Sadat's plane as it lands, ready for any threat against the foreign dignitaries or from them.
voice-verified
But there is no trick.
voice-verified
Sadat steps onto the runway and smiles for the cameras.
voice-verified
The next day, he meets with Begin.
