for the next 10 years. The
precise details of what Is-
rael will be requesting is
classified information.
Some Israeli political ob-
servers expressed hope that
President Anwar/ Sadat's
overwhelming victory in
Monday's referendum on
dealing with Egypt's
domestic crisis will prompt
him to resume peace talks
with Israel. Israeli officials
are still waiting for Sadat's
reply to Israel's request for
"counter proposals" to the
Begin peace plan on which
negotiations can be based.

Meanwhile, it remained
unclear if and when the
Cabinet will discuss the key
questions posed by the U.S.
for clarification of Israel's
peace plan.
Minister
Foreign
Moshe Dayan disclosed
Wednesday that Egypt
had replied to Israel's
peace proposals, but the
U.S. had rejected the re-
ply, in Dayan's words, as
"inadequate" and "im-
possible."
A State Department
spokesman was "puz-
zled" by Dayan's claim
and denied having sent
any message to Israel as
Dayan reported.
Dayan made the claim
during a Knesset debate
on Wednesday in which
the Likud government
defeated a Labor no-
confidence motion by
66-32 with one absten-
tion.
In the aftermath of the jet
sale, President Carter wrote
to Begin re-affirming
America's continued com-
mitment to the security and
welfare of Israel. The letter
was delivered by U.S. Am-
bassador Samuel Jewish.
The White House denied a
radio report that Carter
aide Hamilton Jordan had
said "the Jewish lobby" had
been broken by the Senate
vote.
Several public demon-
strations were held in
Washington last week to
lasting peace settlement. I
must say that I fail to see
how $5 billion of additional
arms introduced in the
Middle East enhances our
chances for peace.
"I respect the Sadat peace
initiative. I am interested
and sympathetic to the
strategic defense needs of
both Egypt and Saudi
Arabia — now and in the
future. But let no one fail to
understand that the 60
F-15s to Saudi Arabia
marks a profound change in
U.S. policy in the Middle
East.
"Coming now, that re-

Council of Metropolitan De- scaled down request for Is-
troit sent a letter of protest raeli weapons, carries a pro-
to Sen. Robert Griffin (R- found message- that no

will misunderstand, and no
favor of the jet sale.
The council also thanked one here ought to misun-
Sen. Donald Riegle (D- derstand, because that step
Mich.) for voting against tips the equation away from
the sale. In a Senate state- Israel and toward Arab oil
ment, Riegle attacked the and oil dollars ..."
"If peace efforts are to

"I think what has hap- succeed in the Middle East
pened is that the Adminis- at this time, it will take a
tration has painted itself greater sense of confidence
into a corner with this arms on the part of the confronta-
package and now it has at- tion states.
If Israel is to take the
tempted, and I think prob-
ably successfully, to paint risks for peace in the West
the Congress into the same
corner. We are, once again,
hearing the same shopworn
arguments that the new
Presi3ent's prestige is on
the line.
"My overriding interest
in the Middle East today is
in reaching a secure and
Bank that are required, she
must feel more secure about
her ability to defend herself
than she presently does.
"Does this arms package
give Israel the incentive to
take the risks for peace?
Clearly the answer is 'no.' "

France Neo-Nazi Gets Death Threat
PARIS (JTA) — A group
calling itself The Remem-
brance Commando has
threatened to kill one of the
leaders of France's minute
neo-Nazi party.
The group, which has al-
ready assumed responsibil-
ity for the murder on March
20 of right-wing parliamen-
tary candidate Francois
Duprat, telephoned the
French News Agency (AFP)
to say "we intend to im-

protest the sale. Some 1,200
high school and college stu-
dents from New York
staged a demonstration and
seven rabbis handcuffed
themselves to the White
House fence for 45 minutes.
In Tel Aviv, Philip M.
Klutznick, president of the
World Jewish Congress,
said the plane sale was re-
grettable, "but not a cause
for tears." He said that
President Carter's assur-
ances and the fact that 44
Senators opposed the sale
was encouraging.

The Remembrance Com-
mando apparently is accus-
ing Clementi of being re-
sponsible for the explosion
which last week slightly
damaged the Paris offices of
the Association of French

Clementi is a former of-
ficer in the French Legion of
Volunteers which fought
with the Nazis on the Rus-

War II. Sentenced to death
after France's liberation, he
has since been pardoned
and now leads the small

neo-Nazi organization.
