Sharon: U.S Public Opinion Turning in Favor of Israel

TEL AVIV (JTA) — De-
fense Minister Ariel Sharon
returned home Tuesday
from his visit to the U.S.,
saying he had found grow-
ing appreciation there of the
Israeli campaign in Leba-
non and a growing recogni-
tion of Israel's demand that
all Syrian and PLO forces
had to leave Lebanon.
He told reporters at

and that 350 Israeli
soldiers were killed and
2,000 wounded during
the "Peace for Galilee"
operation.
Sharon rejected media
reports that 600,000
Lebanese civilians had been
left homeless as- a result of
the Israeli action. He said
this was baseless because
the total population of
southern Lebanon is
625,000, and many villages
were not touched by Israel's
military operation.
PLO killed 110,000
Lebanese civilians and
wounded more than
300,000, most Christians.
"No one said a word," Sha-
ron declared, "and only one
small nation, Israel, came to
their rescue."
He added that Israel
"made a tremendous effort
to secure lives" in Lebanon,
"but people must remember
that the PLO used the civi-
lian population as hostages
. : . they kept women and
children at the doors and
the windows to make it har-
der for our troops to move

Ben-Gurion Airport: "I was
glad to find that public opin-
ion in the States was turn-
ing in favor of Israel. I found
that people understand
more and more that the ex-
pulsion of the terrorists
from Beirut and the de-
struction of the PLO ter-
rorist organization and in-
frastructure in Lebanon
will contribute to the peace-
ful coexistence between Is-
rael and the Palestinian
Arabs."
Sharon said he did not
find that the traditional
friendship between Israel
and the U.S. had been
harmed.
"On the contrary, for
the first time I found
there are many common
goals and targets," he
said.
While in the U.S., Sharon
stressed that the Middle
East is on the verge of a new
era of peace with the mili-
tary and political defeat of
the PLO arid aSfiCi tCet that
Israel has not been at war
with the Palestinian people
but with the PLO terrorist
organization.
Addressing 600 delegates
attending the North Ameri-
can Leadership Conference
of the Israel Bond Organiza-
tion at the Washington Hil-
ton Hotel, Sharon also de-
fended his strategy in
Lebanon and asserted that
it had been approved by the
Cabinet every step of the
way.
He was particularly caus-
tic in his remarks about the
way the news media had in-
flated figures of civilian
casualties in Lebanon dur-
ing the "Peace for Galilee"
operation which began June
6, while forgetting the
number of casualties Israel
suffered during the many
years of PLO terrorist ac-
tivities.
He said there were
some 2,000 civilian
casualties in Lebanon

He told the Israel Bond
leaders that "there was
no collusion between the
United States and Israel
when we went into the
war," as many have
charged. However, now
after the war, Israel and
the U.S. share "common
targets and goals: expul-
sion of the PLO, with-
drawal of foreign forces
— the terrorists, Syrians
and Israeli troops. We
would like to bring our
troops home as early as
possible." Another goal,
Sharon said, would be
"peace between Israel
and Lebanon and the
necessary security ar-
rangements along our
northern border."
Sharon said "one of the
real contributions of the
war was that the Israelis
learned the secrets of the
Soviet SAM missiles and we
eliminated the main center
of world terrorism in Beirut
. . . We brought the situa-
tion to where it will enable
us to build a strong central
government." He added: "I
believe we are facing peace
with Lebanon. I believe we
are going to start a renewed
dialogue with the Palesti-
nian Arabs."
There was tight security
around the hotel where
Sharon was speaking. Out-
side the hotel three demon-
strations were held.
Last Friday, Sharon met
for 45 minutes with Defense
Secretary Caspar Wein-
berger, a meeting that was
described later as "cordial"
by the Pentagon. After
meeting with Weinberger,
Sharon met for almost two
hours with Secretary of
State George Shultz.
Emerging from his
meeting with Shultz,
Sharon told reporters "I
had a good meeting" with
the Secretary of State,"
discussing the situation
in the Mideast, after the
expulsion of the PLO ter-
rorists from Beirut which
is taking place now. I be-
