THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS

Independence Day Marked by Celebrations, Incidents

JERUSALEM (JTA) —
Israel prepared for a festive
Independence Day Wednes-
day but at the same time
announced the toughest se-
curity measures in years
including sealing off the
entire West Bank and clos-
ing the Jordan River bridges
for a day. Jerusalem police
detained scores of Arab sus-
pects for questioning as
they sought the perpetra-
tors of Monday's bombing in
the center of Jerusalem
which injured 33 people.
Only one of the victims
was reported seriously in-
jured. The others, including
the Greek consul general
and his wife, sustained rela-
tively minor injuries.
The bomb caused exten-
sive damage to shops and of-
fices on Ben Yehuda St. Pol-
ice Minister Shlomo Hillel
said the terrorists' motive
seems to be to mar Inde-
pendence Day celebrations,
particularly in Jerusalem.
Reinforced army and
police units were plainly
visible in Jerusalem. Pre-
cautionary measures were

taken all over Israel but
were strictest on the West
Bank where police carried
out the preventive deten-
tion of known extremists.

No vehicles were permit-
ted to enter Israel from the
administered territories and
traffic across the Jordan
River bridges was sus-
pended Wednesday.

Unrest continued to sim-
mer on the West Bank. In
Nablus, the townspeople
imposed a protest curfew
after the military governor
rejected Mayor Basem Sha-
kaas' appeal to lift a curfew
imposed by Israeli authori-
ties on the "Casbah" in the
old section of town.
A 45-year-old Arab
woman was wounded
Wednesday in Nablus, re-
portedly when Israeli troops
fired shots into the air to av-
ert demonstrations.
It was learned, mean-
while, that an Israeli army
major will go on trial
shortly in connection with
the death last month of

Ahmed Dieb Dahloul, an
Arab from the West Bank
village of Salfit. Dahloul
was allegedly beaten by
soldiers while in an army
vehicle that was taking
him to Tulkarem for ques-
tioning. The soldiers claim
that the major in charge
ordered them to rough up
all detainees.
Independence Day cele-
brations began Tuesday eve-
ning when 10 Jewish youths
from abroad and two Israe-
lis lit torches "for the glory
of the state of Israel" on Mt.
Herzl. A major military
parade was held. The em-
phasis this year — Israel's
28th year of independence
— was on special events in
neighborhoods and develop-
ment towns.
A pageant was the central
event in Tel Aviv during
which Israels history will be
recounted in verse, song and
dance.
In an Independence Day
interview published in Da-
var, Gen. Gur expressed
confidence that Israel's mil-
itary strength has reached
levels where it serves as a
deterrent against another
war by the Arabs. He said
that should the Arab states
force another war on Israel,
"We shall be able to reach a
* *

decisive victory that may
change our strategic and
geographic position."
New immigrants partic-
ipated in Independence
Day celebrations, picnics
and excursions organiied
by the Absorption Minis-
try and the Jewish
Agency. South African
oilim attended the fifth
annual picnic of the South
African Zionist Federation
in the Carmel Forest.
An Arab youth was killed
by Israeli soldiers in Nablus
Saturday as a new wave of
unrest erupted on the West
Bank on the occasion of May
Day. Curfews were imposed
in Nablus and in Tulkarem
where rioters hurled rocks
and set up roadblocks of
burning tires. Demonstra-
tors in Jenin were dispersed
by security forces before
any disturbances occurred.
The trouble in Nablus
began with a boycott of
classes by high school stu-
dents who blocked streets
with piles of burning tires.
An Israeli army patrol, sur-
rounded by rioting youths
in an alley, fired into the air
and then into the crowd. Sa-
mir Famha, 18, was fatally
wounded. Thousands of
Nablus residents attended
his funeral later in the day.

Katzir Hails World Jewry
in Independence Message

JERUSALEM (JTA) —
President Ephraim Katzir,
in an Independence Day
message addressed to Jew-
ish communities abroad,
declared that while "the
agenda of Israels unresolved
problems is long . . . we are
heartened and re-assured by
the recollection of those that
have been solved" and "we
dare to believe that even the
problem of our relationship
with our Arab neighbors
will respond to good will
and to the overriding need
for cooperation and its hu-
man benefits."
Katzir said that Israel
believed this even "in a time
marked by incitement
within Israel and by tragic
chaos and internecine hate
in Lebanon, once the Middle
East's model of tolerance."
Reviewing developments
during the past year, Katzir
noted that the "virulent at-
tempts to disenfranchise
Israel in the United Na-
tions" culminating in repre-
sentation for the PLO and
the equation of Zionism
with racism, engendered an
"enraged reaction, on the
part of large circles in the
intellectual elite of the free
world and of Jewish com-
munities, organizations and
individuals throughout the
world, transmitting rage
into vigorous and fruitful
cooperation with Israel."
He observed in that con-
nection that "The Jerusalem
Conference of Jewish Soli-
darity was convened and
was followed by numerous
Jewish conferences and pil-
grimage groups. These, on
Israel's streets and roads
and in its assembly halls,
have been the visible evi-
dence of deeply moving,
worldwide Jewish identifi-

cation with the state and
with the rennaisance of our
ancient people and culture,
embodied in the state. Zion-
ism has become the syn-
onym for the modern Jew's
will to live," Katzir stated.
He added that "The chal-
lenge of Jewish need in the
Soviet Union and Arab
countries continues to bind
Israel and the Jewry of the
free world in an alliance of
effort and commitment. To
meet this challenge and also
to strengthen and'aid Israel,
we rely increasingly on our
own efforts. Let us, Israel
and Jews everywhere, un-
daunted by difficulty, ob-
stacles, ambiguity, assure
the Jewish future and at the
heart of it, Zion; the house
of our life."
Independence Day greet-
ings were also published by
the World Zionist Organiza-
tion Executive in Jerusalem,
American Zionist Organiza-
tions, and the Canadian
Zionist Federation.

No Change Seen
in U.S. PLO Stand

WASHINGTON (JTA) —
The Israel Embassy said
that it "perceives no change"
in the U.S. position regard-
ing negotiations between
Israel and the PLO and
"certainly none" in Israel's
position.
Embassy press counsellor
Avi Pazner made this state-
ment when he was asked to
comment on the positions of
both countries in view of
recent developments in the
U.S. and abroad where the
PLO is being increasingly
depicted as a "moderating"
and "responsible" force in
the Lebanese civil war.

Heavy cordons of Israeli pol-
ice were on hand but no inci-
dents developed.
Meanwhile, some 4,000
Israeli Arabs from all over
Galilee gathered in Naza-
reth for a Communist-led
May Day rally against the
government.
They assembled in the
main square to hear both Is-
raeli Communists and Arab
leaders denounce the Rabin
administration, the Knesset
and the militant nationalist
Gush Emunim. The demon-
stration was orderly but the
speeches and slogans were
provocative.
Ziad Tewfik, the Marx-
ist Mayor of Nazareth,
declared that Israeli Ar-
abs are part of the Palesti-
niannation and demanded
that they be given 18 seats
in the Knesset and at least
three seats in the Cabinet.
Samih el-Kasem, editor of
the Arab Communist pub-
lication Al Itihad, read a
poem claiming that all Is-
raelis were murderers. He
urged Arabs to use rocks
and bottles against the
armored vehicles of -the
"conquering army."
Meanwhile, Jewish-Arab
amity was demonstrated in
a woodland near Mishmar
HaEmek where about 20,-
000. persons, including some
2,000 Arabs, assembled un-
der the auspices of Mapam.
Health Minister Victor
Shemtov outlined Mapam
policies calling for the eva-
cuation of the Gush Emu-
nim squatters from Kadum
in Samaria and an expres-
sion of willingness by Israel
to return to its pre-June
1967 borders in exchange for
peace with its neighbors.
A May Day rally by the
leftist Moked faction drew
200 people in Tel Aviv and
another by Rakan and Ma-
tzpen was attended by
about 400. The groups

marched in orderly fashion
down Dizengoff St. Minor
incidents occurred when
nationalist Betar youths
tried to pull down red flags
flying over local Hashomer
Hatzair clubs.
In Jerusalem, police re-
moved a bomb planted by
terrorists in the main
square and detonated it
safely in an unpopulated
area. The bomb, spotted by
a passer-by, contained ex-
plosives linked to a battery
and detonator. Last
Wednesday night tl:vo police
sappers were killed and four
were injured while trying tr
dismantle a bomb left E,
terrorists on a side street
the center of town.
