Biden's letter is the

WASHINGTON (JTA) —
The House Foreign Affairs
subcommittee on the Mid-
dle East has set aside con-
sideration of a resolution of
inquiry into Israel's use of
American-supplied
weapons in retaliating
against Palestine Libera-
tion Organization terrorists
in south Lebanon, but the
threat of a probe continues.
The resolution, presented
by Rep. Paul Findley (R-
Ill.), who has been in fre-
quent communication with
PLO chief Yasir Arafat, was
considered by the subcom-
mittee after receiving in-
formation on Israel's strikes
into south Lebanon from
Morris Draper, deputy
assistant secretary of state
for the Middle East.
The Jewish Telegraphic
Agency was informed that
the full House Committee
on Foreign Affair's also
would not consider the
Findley demand, but since
the inquiry resolution is a
measure of personal

privilege any House
member could bring it to the
attention of the full House.
The crux of the inquiry
is the extent of Israel's
use of U.S. weapons and
whether this violates the
Israeli-American agree-
ment that the weapons
are for defense only. Is-
rael maintains that it ,—
strikes against the tc_
rorist bases have -
thwaried further ter-
rorist action against Is-
rael.
According to House
sources, the State Depart-
ment view is that Israel's
claim to self-defense be-
comes unacceptable when
civilians become casualties
of artillery bombardments,
although the use of U.S.
weapons against military
targets is condoned.
It was said that many
members of Congress are
leaning towards this view
but no action such as cur-
tailing U.S. arms is being
contemplated at this time.
