Wudyka Vicki Munson Yun Craig Zamler Gene Zamler Judy Zola Lila Zorn JERUSALEM (JTA) — Foreign Minister Yitzhak Shamir and the Foreign Ministry came under sharp attack by a key Likud Knes- set member for what he said was an "inept information campaign" dealing with the war in Lebanon. Dr. Eliahu Ben-Elissar, chairman of the Knesset Foreign Affairs and Secu- rity Committee, who was Is- rael's ambassador to Egypt and a former director gen- eral of the prime minister's office, blamed Shamir for not having convened even one press conference with foreign journalists to pre- sent Israel's position. He also charged that Shamir refused to deal with the subject of the informa- tion campaign at Cabinet meetings. Ben-Elissar said that in view of this "ineptness" he did not understand why the Foregn Ministry was surprised that most of the international media expressed sym- pathy for the Palestine Liberation Organization. The ministry, he said, should have prepared it- self ahead of time for such a development. David Kimche, director general of the Foreign Ministry, replied that his ministry was only one of the bodies dealing with in- formation. He said the Is- rael Defense Force spokes- man was in charge of brief- ing journalists in Lebanon, and not the Foreign Minis- try. Sources at the ministry expressed surprise that Ben-Elissar's comments were leaked out of the-- Knesset committee, since the meeting was a closed` one. The sources said the committee received a com- prehensive account of the extensive work of the Foreign Ministry in the area of informational ac- tivity which resulted in pur- lic opinion surveys showing that support for Israel in the United States and Western Europe has not diminished since the war began in Lebanon. The account also noted tha Shamir devotes consid- erable time daily for inter- views with the media, thus becoming Israel's best known spokesman over- seas, after Premier Menahem Begin. Watt Says Made a Mistake' in Sending Letter to Arens NEW YORK (JTA) — Secretary of Interior James Watt told leaders of the Anti-Defamation League of Bnai Brith that he had "made a mistake" in send- ing a letter to Ambassador Moshe Arens of Israel stat- ing that "If the liberals of the Jewish community join with other liberals of this nation to oppose these ef- forts, they will weaken our ability to be a good friend of Israel." At his meeting here last week, Watt was reported to have expressed his apologies and admitted that the American Jewish com- munity had "every right to be upset." He complained to the ADL leaders that he seeks support for his energy policies from every segment of American society and that he had no intention of singling out the Jewish community. ADL national chair- Bond Leaders to Hear Arens and Sharon NEW YORK — Israel De- fense Minister Ariel Sharon and Ambassador to the U.S. Moshe Arens will be the principal speakers at the 1982 International Leader- ship Conference of State of Israel Bonds in Washing. ton, D.C. Aug. 26-29. If I have ever made any valuable discoveries, it has been owing more to patient attention, than to any other talent. —Sir Isaac Newton man Kenneth Bialkin, who said the meeting with Watt had been ar- ranged weeks ago, prior to the disclosure of the June 17 letter to Arens, said the Interior Secre- tary's remarks were made "with great sincer- ity and in good faith, and we consider the incident closed." In the immediate after- math of the disclosure of the letter two weeks ago, Watt insisted that the letter "does not threaten anyone" and that he stood by it because "its intentions were right and it was properly worded." But Jewish leaders . and major political figures reacted angrily and many demanded his resignation. During a nationally tele- vised news conference in Washington last week, President Reagan was asked if Watt should be fired, as Sen. Daniel Moynihan (D-N.Y.), has suggested. The President answered that Watt "shouldn't be fired."
