convened Emergency Spe-
cial Sessions on the Middle
East was no less than five —
which is equal to all the
Emergency Special Ses-
sions held in the UN's first
three decades."
And almost without ex-
ception, she says, these ses-
sions portray Israel as the
villain, the Arab states and
PLO as the victims.
Dr. Pilon says that Con-
gress should hold hearings
to determine exactly how
UN money is spent support-
ing the PLO, and that the
U.S. should take whatever
action is necessary to pre-
vent the PLO from gaining
further legitimacy at the
upcoming UN International
Conference on the Question
of Palestine to be held in
Paris in mid-August. That
must certainly include
withholding funds for the
conference, Dr. Pilon says.
At the same time, she
suggests the United
States should continue to
protect Israel from unfair
attacks by UN agencies.
In the case of serious vio-
lations against Israel, the
U.S. should drastically
reduce its voluntary con-
tributions to these agen-

BACCARAT

cies, perhaps by as much
as one-half of the present
amount.
And finally, if UN attacks
against Israel continue, Dr.
Pilon says the U.S. should
consider boycotting General
Assembly discussions on
the Middle East.
From 1967 to 1972, Dr.
Pilon points out, about two
dozen resolutions on the
Middle East, all blatantly
anti-Israeli, were adopted
in the General Assembly,
with the Arabs trying to
erode support for Israel. Be-
tween 1973 and 1978, more
than 80 anti-Israeli resolu-
tions were passed. "The
crescendo intensified, until
the number of anti-Israeli
resolutions in the General
Assembly reached 44 dur-
ing 1982 alone. None of
these resolutions criticizes
terrorist attacks on Israel
nor mentions the Arab
threat to Israel. Rather,
there is a sustained effort to
delegitimize the very idea of
a Jewish state, linking it
with `imperialism,' col-

tional Labor Organization,
the International Tele-
communications Union, the
UN Relief and Works
Agency and the Human
Rights Commission.

The UN bloc-voting
mechanism has also con-
tributed enormously to the
UN attack on Israel because
most countries are bound to
support the policies of the
blocs to which they belong.
Yet, Dr. Pilon notes, "In
what became a watershed,
the Western bloc in 1973 in-
creased the frequency with
which they abstained on
resolutions attacking Is-
rael, instead of backing Is-
rael."

"The UN's war against
the Jews cannot continue
without bringing to an end
the hope that the UN could
provide a forum for rational
discussion and peaceful set-
tlement of conflict . . . The
principal casualty of the
UN's attack on Israel may
well be the UN itself," the
Heritage analyst concluded.

Lantos Wants U.S. Funds Pulled
from Anti-Israel UN Conference

WASHINGTON — Rep.
Tom Lantor, D-Calif., says
the United States should
not pay its share of financial
support for a United
Nations-sponsored "Inter-
national Conference on the
Alliance Between South Af-
rica and Israel," to be held
in July in Vienna.
In a June 14 letter to Sec-
retary of State George
Shultz, Lantos said the con-
ference should be consid-
ered in violation of Public
Law 97-241, which requires
the U.S. to withhold its reg-
ular contribution to the UN,
or to the specialized UN
agency involved, in any
projects benefitting the
PLO.
"It is clear that the real
purpose of this conference is
to provide a propaganda
platform for the Palestine
Liberation Organization,"
Lantos added.

onialism,' and 'racism.' "
Yet, Dr. Pilon says, the
UN attack on Israel goes
beyond propaganda. "It is
reflected in the very com-
position of the decision-
making bodies," she ex-
plains. For example, Israel
is excluded from the Eco-
nomic Commission of West-
ern Asia (ECWA), a blatant
violation of UN rules.
ECWA is composed entirely
of Arab states.
The UN Educational,
Scientific and Cultural
Organization (UNESCO)
passed a resolution in
1974 excluding only one
state — Israel — from full
participation in UNES-
CO's regional activities,
while the Soviet Union
was "empowered" by
that resolution for par-
ticipation in two UN-
ESCO regions.
A number of other UN
agencies also have under-
taken campaigns against
Israel, Dr. Pilon says, in-
cluding the World Health
Organization, the Interna-

Swiss officials have ex-
pressed shock and con-
cern that a UN confer-
ence on Palestine,
scheduled for August in
Paris, had been switched
to Geneva under French
pressure.
The Swiss expressed
doubts that they could
handle the security for such
a conference.
West German Foreign
Minister Hans-Deitrich
Genscher told representa-
tives of the World Jewish
Congress that the 10-state
European Economic Com-
munity will not participate
in the meeting.
Bnai Brith International
called on "all governments
desiring peace" to withhold
financial support from the
conference.

The Israeli delegation
to the United Nations
Conference on Trade and
Development (UNCTAD)
which just opened in Bel-

grade, was assured by
Yugoslavia's Foreign
Minister, Lazar Moisov,
that he will do his best to
avoid politization of the
gathering.
Moisov, who is president
of the conference, made that
commitment to Meir Gabay,
head of the Israeli delega-
tion.
Gabay said the head of
the Jordanian delegation
attacked Israel over the
Sabra and Shatila refugee
camp massacres last Sep-
tember. Gabay said he re-
plied by pointing out that
the Killings were done by
Lebanese forces and re-
minded the Jordanians of
their own massacre of
Palestinians during the
"Black September" of 1970.

Army Detonates
Booby-Trapped
Car in Lebanon

JERUSALEM (JTA) — A
bobby-trapped car was
safely blown up last week
after it was discovered by
Israeli forces parked on a
roadside in Khalde, south of
Beirut. The car was in an
area where Israeli troops
have come under attack re-
cently.
The Israel army has
warned local residents that
cars parked on certain roads
will be blown up. The pre-
caution was taken following
several incidents in which
parked cars loaded with
explosives were detonated
by remote control as Israeli
patrols passed close to them.
Meanwhile the army is
investigating the June 10
ambush that killed three Is-
raeli soldiers in Lebanon.
Military sources denied
however that the town of
Deir Kanoun, near the
scene of the attack, has been
placed under curfew and
barred to United Nations
personnel.

The Arab delegations
have presented a resolution
asking UNCTAD to set up a
special unit to prepare a re-
port on the economic condi-
tion of Arabs in the Israel-
occupied territories. Gabay
said most Western dele-
gates opposed the resolu-
tion. x* *
A draft resolution
strongly condemning Is-
rael's settlement policies
and its treatment of Arab
workers in the occupied
territories was adopted
by the Resolutions Com-
mittee of the Interna-
tional Labor Organiza-
tion (ILO) at its annual
conference here.
The resolution, which
was opposed by all Western
delegations except Austria,
comes up for a vote at the
plenary session next week.
Observers said there are
chances it will be rejected.
The resolution recom-
mended, among other
things, that the conference
take effective and appropri-
ate measures toward Israel.

Burg Rescinds
Terms for Three

JERUSALEM (JTA) —
Interior Minister Yosef
Burg; overriding the
recommendations of the
police, rescinded the 14-day
prison sentences imposed on
three rock-throwing reli-
gious zealots Sunday.
The police had urged vig-
orous punishment for the
three who hurled rocks at
passing vehicles on the
Ramot road June 11 and at-
tacked police officers who
tried to stop them.
Burg, a leader of the Na-
tional Religious Party, or-
dered the men released so
that they can spend their
nights at home rather than
in jail cells. They will serve
their sentences by working
days at the local police pre-
cinct.
