In the House of Representa- tives (July 27), he stressed that "it has be- come distressingly fash- ionable for critics and analysts of the Middle East to paint Israel as the intransigent party in the area — that if only Israel would withdraw to the 1967 — 1948? — borders, that if only Israel would unconditionally turn over the West Bank and the Gaza Strip to the Palestinians, that if only Israel would pay repara- tions to the refugees of the 1948 War of Indepen- dence, peace would come to the Middle East for all peoples. "It is a convenient and illusory argument," Waxman added. "It is one which seeks to ration- alize the exploitative power shift which has graced the Arab oil producing states, and their Soviet arms back- ers, since the Yom Kip- pur War. It is one which closes the eyes to the hor- ror of terrorism, and which washes its hands of the hemorrhage that is Lebanon today. It is, fi- nally, an argument which remains blind to the basic obstacle to peace between Israel and its neighbors:- the refusal of the Arab states and the Palesti- nians to accept Israel's existence within secure and recognized borders."

He did not believe, however, that the killers had been acting on orders from Amin. Bertram Bloch said that the family had received this information in the past three weeks. The Israeli engineer was addressing journalists at the end of his stay in Britain during which he has been investigating his mother's death in the wake of the Israeli rescue action at Entebbe Airport. He also thought that no more witnesses of the murder were still alive in Uganda. However, he appealed to other witnesses, who had since left the coun- try, to come forward to con- firm what he had already been told. Mr. Bloch, who held dual British and Israeli citizenship, was a passenger on the Air France plane hijacked by pro-Palestinian terrorists to Uganda. She was reportedly taken to a hospital in Kampala before the Israeli rescue operation. On July 13 a newspaper in Nairobi, Kenya, reported that the partly burned body of Mrs. Bloch was found in a forest 11 miles from Kam- pala, Uganda's capital. Advance Fashion Ltd. Bloch's press conference was held at the House of Commons under the auspices of Labor MP Greville Janner, who has formed a group of MPs to keep a watch on the case. Bloch thanked Janner, his colleagues and the British government for their con- cern at the affair. alteration on premises 13721 W. 11 MILE RD.
