re-elected to a third term as

Pattir said that the inves-

WASHINGTON (JTA) —
Sections of the American
news media were sharply
taken to task by Dan Pattir,
Premier Menahem Begin's
information counselor, for
their treatment of Israel in
general and their presump-
tion that Jewish terrorists
were responsible for the
June 2 bomb attacks
against West Bank mayors
although an exhaustive in-
vestigation into the outrage
has yet to yield evidence as
to the identity of the perpet-
rators.
Pattir spoke in Washing-
ton last Friday at the 38th
annual meeting of the
American Jewish Press

outrageous attempt" on
the lives of Arab mayors,
he said. But, he noted,
there are still "no clues to
the identities of the as-
sassins" who ambushed
and killed six yeshiva
students in Hebron on
May 2.
Despite the absence of
evidence in the bomb at-
tacks, Pattir charged that
Newsweek magazine has
already "passed judgment,"
blaming "Israeli terrorists."
Although Begin has con-
demned the bombings as
"crimes of the gravest
kind," Pattir said, Time
magazine quotes an
anonymous State Depart-
ment official who "courage-
ously" hid behind anonym-
ity to say that "Begin has
taken actions that are clear
incitements to violence."
The Israeli official also
criticized a cartoon pub-
lished in the Washington
Star, a daily owned by Time,
Inc., which depicted Begin
as "a terrorist" with fea-
tures reminiscent of the
way Nazi newspapers pic-
tured Jews. He called the
cartoon "sheer anti-
Semitism."
The cartoon was de-
nounced as "obscene" by
Israel's Ambassador to
the U.S. Ephraim Evron
who addressed the AJPA
meeting. He said it could
have "come out of the
pages of Der Stuermer."
Evron also blasted parts
of the American media
__for its treatmentof Israel.
They have "no moral con-
ception of what is going on"
and "slanting and imbal-
ance are setting no
standards in coverage," he
said. He complained that "I
have seen very little reac-
tion from liberal groups" to
"the strange stories by
anonymous officials, at-
tributed to the Prime Mins-
ter" (Begin).
At another session,
Herschel Blumberg,
president of the United
Jewish Appeal, told the as-
sembled editors and pub-
lishers that they consiti-
tute "the forum for funda-
mental Jewish values" and
that "the Jewish newspap-
ers remind us of our
Jewishness," like those in
the past "kept us out of the
narrowness of ghetto life."
Morris Amitay, executive
director of the American-
Israel Public Affairs Com-
mittee (AIPAC), spoke of
continued U.S. dependence
on Arab oil and said "We've
tightened the noose around
our necks. Therefore, we
have to be saying we have to
be nice to the Arabs to have
access to Arab oil."
He predicted a "crunch"
in U.S.-Israeli relations this
year with President Carter
applying more pressure on
Israel "insofar as autonomy
is concerned" for the West
Bank and Gaza Strip. He
said the issue in the au-
tonomy talks is who will
control the West Bank and
on that, the U.S. is "closer to
Egypt and the Arab states
than to Israel."

others in Israel, or the ad-
ministered territories," and
urged that "the perpet-
rators be speedily brought
to justice."

vasion of Afghanistan and

tivists," and "continues to

Israel Says
Visa Requests
Unchanged

TEL AVIV (JTA) —
American Consul James
Carr reported no significant
increase in the number of
Israelis asking for entry
visas to the U.S. this year
compared with the same
period in 1979.
According to travel
agency sources however,
there has been a substantial
increase in the purchase of
one-way tickets to the U.S.
by Israelis who do no.t pos-
sess immigration visas.
