Israel, Says Opinion Poll
NEW YORK — A recent
Harris Survey of U.S. public
opinion shows that most
Americans condemn the
PLO and agree with Israel's
stance of not negotiating
with the PLO.
However, 60 percent be-.

soldiers and a civilian in
terrorist-held territory last
week.
Five were killed and
two wounded in the inci-
dent. According to one of
the survivors, the group
was searching for a dis-
abled tractor in Israeli-
held territory. When they
didn't find it they decided
to go sight-seeing.
They convinced an Israeli
checkpoint to allow them
into the terrorist territory,
where they were ambushed.
Several officers and soldiers
at the checkpoint have been
charged with negligence in
the incident.
The Israeli army admit-
ted last week that it had
used "cluster" bombs in
Lebanon, in violation of an
agreement with the U.S. An
Israeli spokesman stressed
that the controversial
bombs were used only after
Israeli villages were shelled
by terrorist positions and
the bombs were used
against those positions.
Israel issued an apology
to the U.S.
U.S. Secretary of Defense
Harold Brown, speaking on
CBS-TV's "Face the Na-
tion" program, said the
bombs were not a major
issue and that the U.S.
would review their use with
Israel.

lieve that Israel should give
up at least some of the cap-
tured Arab territories.bnly
10 percent think Israel
should give back all the ter-
ritories.
On most issues, Ameri-
cans favor the Israeli gov-
ernment's positions:
Only 21 percent favor a
Palestinian state on the
West Bank; twice as
many favor a Palestinian
homeland under Jor-
dan's rule. A 47-40 per-
cent plurality believe Is-
rael's invasion of south
Lebanon as justified.
A narrow 40-39 percent
plurality believes Israel is
justified in not vacating its
settlements in the adminis-
tered territories.
Some 70 percent believe
Egypt wants peace, while 68
percent believe the same of
Israel. By 43 to 24 percent,
Americans stay they would
trust Israel over Egypt if
peace failed.

Hebrew U. Prof in Flint
to Discuss Israel Situation
Prof. Shlomo Avineri,
dean of the faculty of social
sciences and professor of
political science at the Heb-
rew University of
Jerusalem, was in Flint re-
cently to discuss the current
Mideast situation.
Speaking at Cong. Beth
Israel in a program -spon-
sored by the Community
Relations Committee of the
Flint Jewish Community
Council, Prof. Avineri said
the wars, refugee problem
and other issues might have
been solved had the Arab
states accepted the com-
promise advanced by the
United Nations in 1947.
He said the Arabs re-
jected the compromise
creating the state of Israel
and went to war. Prof. Av-
ineri said that the Arab re-
fusal to recognize Israel is at
the root of the Mideast con-
flict. •
He called the peace
movements on the part of
Egypt's President Anwar
Sadat the "first rum-
blings of a change of
mind in the Arab world."
Prof. Avineri also de-
scribed the last 10 years as
an "easy life" for Israel be-
cause all plans were
theoretical. But, now, he
said, "we have a plan and
have to make up• our
minds."
The major differences
within the Israeli govern-
ment, he said, was the posi-
tion on the West Bank and
Gaza Strip. Premier
Menahem Begin's Likud
Party insists on keeping the
West Bank and Gaza Strip
for security reasons and as a
natural part of Jewish
sovereignty while the Labor
Party would compromise
the West Bank and Gaza
Strip for peace.
The Labor Party would
insist on demilitarization
of the West Bank, which,
along with the Gaza
Strip, would be com-
prised of about 35 per-
cent Arab people.
Prof. Avineri • predicted
that negotiations would be
dragged out.
