Romberg conceded that "members of at least one in- ternational terrorist group reportedly are still in Iraq, apparently under certain constraints. We will con- tinue to register our strong view that there can be no advantage to Iraq, or to other countries that face a terrorist threat, in permit- ting terrorists to transit or reside in Iraq.

A spokesman for the local Jewish community said it was the most serious desec- ration of a Jewish burial ground in Germany since World War II. The upended stones were not daubed with anti- Semitic slogans as is often the case in such incidents. Ironically, the Cologne cemetery, which is 300 years old, survived the Nazi era intact.

Israelis in NY Presented by 0 OFF LONDON — Tourists re- turning from Prague have told the International Council of Jews from Czechoslovakia that memo- rial tablets inside the an- cient Pinkas Synagogue are disintegrating from the dampness plaguing the structure. A guide told the tourists that there were no plans to fix the relatively-new tab- let's memorializing the 77,000 victims of the Holocaust in Bohemia and Moravia. A spokesman for the Prague Jewish community, however, said a more com- plete list of Jewish victims was being compiled, but re- storation of the tablets "will take considerable time." TEL AVIV (JNI) — There are probably only about 75,000 Israelis living in the greater New York area, ac- cording to Israeli Consul General Naphtali Lavie. "Reports that there are nearly 500,000 Israelis in the U.S. are a myth," he said.
