Seen Gaining
After Invasion
NEW YORK (JTA) —
Abraham Sharir, Israel's
Minister of Tourism, • has
predicted that once the
Lebanese crisis is over,
American tourists will be
able to go on "package tours
to Egypt, Israel and Leba-
non."
Addressing some 120
travel agents from the New
York area at a reception at
the Regency Hotel last
week, the Israeli Minister
said that in recent weeks
the Lebanese - Israeli bor-,
der has been open for
tourists from both coun-
tries. He said that Ameri-
can tourists can come now
and "visit the pyramids in
Egypt then come to visit the
Holy Places in Israel and
from there continue to enjoy
the casinos of Lebanon."
Sharir said, however,
that the war in Lebanon,
which started June 6, has
reduced the number of
American tourists to Israel
by about five percent this
summer compared with the
same period last year.
