Reagan's Transitional Team Joins in Condemnation
(Continued from Page 1)
going to or taking such an
important trip as that of
going to Moscow which was
a pre-planned trip. Senator
Percy did extend us that
courtesy and we did discuss,
but in no way was the visit
coordinated to the extent
that he was carrying any
proposals. He is a Senator
and he is entitled to his
views . . . They are his and
they do not represent neces-
sarily those of the incoming
administration."
A Republican Senator,
Robert Dole of Kansas,
replying to questions on the
BC-TV "Meet the Press"
ogram, said, "I doubt it"
when asked if he and other
Republicans supported Per-
cy's ideas on a Palestinian
state. "I haven't discussed
this with Senator Percy. I
haven't read the cables. But
I would hope he is speaking
only for Senator Percy,"
Dole said.
A number of Percy's
other Senate colleagues
also took him to task this
week. Sen. Daniel Pat-
rick Moynihan (D-N.Y.)
praised the Reagan
team's quick disavowal
of Percy's remarks. "Sen.

Percy represents him-
self," Moynihan said. "He
doesn't represent the
majority of the Senate in
these matters. In no cir-
cumstances are we going
to set up' a Palestinian
state with Mr. Arafat at
the head, not while I'm in
the United States Se-
nate."
Percy's statements were
also criticized on the Senate
floor by Sens. Bob Packwood
(R-Ore.), and Carl Levin
(D-Mich.), Howard Metzen-
baum ( D-Ohio) and Ted
Kennedy (D-Mass.).
Packwood, who like his
three Democratic col-
leagues is a strong suppor-
ter of Israel,' warned that
"any plan for a Palestinian
state on the West Bank is
presumptuous, arrogant
and wrong. It's not the road
to peace. It's the way to
war."-
Metzenbaum declared,
"I do not believe that the
Soviet Union, the PLO or
anyone else can rea-
sonably take the Sena-
tor's remarks as anything
more than they were in-
tended to be — an expres-
sion of a personal posi-
tion that is at variance
with our long established
foreign policy. Anyone
who doubts this nation's
position need only read
.
the platforms of our two
major political parties."
Metzenbaum quoted at
some length from the 1980
Republican platform.
Kennedy said, "The re-
cent conflict between Iraq
and Iran and the increased
tension between Syria and
Jordan should remind us
that the Palestinian prob-
lem is not the central cause
of turmoil and instability in
the Middle East today.
"Moreover, the core and
crux of the Arab-Israli prob-
lem lies with the failure of
the Arab nations, except for
Egypt, to recognize both Is-
rael's existence and its need
for secure, defensible and
recognized borders."
Leaders of major
American Jewish organ-
izations criticized the
Percy statements and
called on President-elect

Reagan to issue a denial.
Statements were issued
by Howard Squadron,
chairman of the Conference
of Presidents of major
American Jewish Organ-
izations; Rabbi Alexander
Schindler, president of the
Union of American Hebrew
Congregations; Maynard
Wishner, president of the
American Jewish Commit-
tee; Rabbi Joseph Sterns-
tein, president of the
American Zionist Federa-
tion; and Ivan Novick,
president of the Zionist
Organization of America.
Sen. Percy expressed
dismay at the release of the
cables because they were
likely to be misinterpreted.

on Percy
(Continued from Page 1)
I hope such statements
were not made because they
ignore history, and because,
if implemented, they will
inevitably doom the Middle
East to a perpetual state of
terrorism and war.
Finally, I hope the report'
is not true because the
Camp David process is
fragile and its progeny un-
certain and such statements
would make it more difficult
to achieve a consensus solu-
tion to the Palestinian prob-
lem which requires a dif-
ficult and delicate formula,
not a formulation of state-
hood with Arafat at its
helm.
Men often make up in
wrath what they want in
reason.
statements," he said. He
Alger
nevertheless confirmed that
he envisioned a Palestinian
federation with Jordan that
would retain a defense force
"like the Japanese with no
offensive capability."
Percy said, "I have always
insisted that there could
never be a possibility of the
U.S. negotiating with the
Palestinians until the
Palestinians recognize the
sovereignty of Israel, the
right of its people to live in
peace with sensible bor-
ders."
Percy also said, "Arafat
has a compelling desire to
be a chief of state, no matter
how small it is. He is a ter-
rorist, he has done some
dastardly things, but he is a

YITZAK MODAI
JERUSALEM (JTA) —
.Yitzhak -Modal. announced
Sunday that he has res-
igned as Minister of_Com-
munications but will retain
his Cabinet seat as Minister
of Energy.
Modai's relinquishment
of one of the two portfolios
he holds in the Begin gov-
ernment came as a surprise.
There was no immediate
explanation for his move.
But sources close to him
suggested that he acted out
of frustration over the
Treasury's efforts to block
his plan to transfer tele-
phone and postal services to
a government-owned com-
pany, thereby removing
them from bureaucratic
control.
Modai's departure from
the Communications Minis-
try may provide Prime
Minister Menahem Begin
with an opportunity to bol-
ster his shaky coalition gov-
ernment by offering the
portfolio to Shlomo Eliahu,
leader of the new Avha fac-
tion, a spi'n-off from the de-
funct Democratic Move-
ment for .Change.
