AJCommittee Is Outraged
Over Syrian Jews' Murders

& Jewelry Repairmo

NEW YORK (JTA) —
The American Jewish
Committee condemned the
savage killing last week in
Aleppo, Syria, of a 25-year-
old pregnant Jewish mother
and her two small children,
and called on the Syrian
government to apprehend
the murderers and bring
them to justice.
Friedman,
Howard
president of the AJCommit-
tee, denounced the murder
in Aleppo last week of Lil-
lian Antabi Abadi and
Joseph, 61/2 years old, and
Sandy, 41/2 years old, as "a
brutal, savage act which
must be condemned by all
civilized people."
According to reports re-
ceived from several sources
by the AJC's International
Relations Department,
when the father, Chaim
Victor Abadi, a Syrian
Jewish merchant, returned
home, he found his pre-
gnant wife dead, her breasts
cut, her stomach slit open,
and her body mutilated. The
hands of the son were cut,
and the little girl's body was
cut to pieces.
"We do not believe,"
Friedman said, "that this
was the doing of a com-
mon thief' because "this
vile murder was pre-
ceded by a number of

telephone calls to several
members of the Aleppo
Jewish community made
in the dead of night,
warning them that you
are next.' "
"We see this as an effort to
terrorize the miniscule
Jewish community of
Syria," Friedman said, and
"therefore, it is all the more
important that President
Hafez Assad make clear by
his actions that higher
authorities in the Syrian
government are not condon-
ing these actions."
The AJC president
also called on the Syrian
government to allow those
Syrian Jews who wish to
leave to do so, without being
forced to leave behind
members of their families as
hostages. There are about
700 Jews in Aleppo, and ap-
proximately 4,000 in
Damascus and 200 in
Kamishly.

Hanuka Pledges

JERUSALEM (JNI) —
Payment and pledges for Is-
rael Bonds totaling $20.3
million were secured by Op-
eration Maccabee '83, in
which 35 local business
leaders and senior IDF offi-
cers visited 116 U.S. and
Canadian cities during
Hanuka.

TEL AVIV (JTA) — Is-
rael Air Force jets struck at
terrorist targets in Syrian-
controlled areas of Lebanon
Wednesday for the second
successive day. A military
spokesman said two bases
were hit in the region of
Baalbek in the northern
Bekaa Valley.
One was described as a
former camp of the
Lebanese police, taken over
several months ago by pro-
Iranian terrorists and
Palestine Liberation
Organization dissidents op-
posed to Yasir Arafat. The
other was a former hotel
which the Israelis said was
used as a training center for
both groups.
They were said to have
been the bases from which
the terrorists launched the
Oct. 23 car-bomb attacks on
U.S. and French military
headquarters in Beirut and
attacks on Israeli installa-
tions in Sidon.
Beirut radio reported
heavy casualties resulted
from the raids. The ter-
rorists were said to be
Lebanese Shiite Moslem fol-
lowers of the Ayatollah
Khomeini and Iranian vol-
unteers fighting with the
PLO. Israeli planes struck
Tuesday at PLO dissidents
in Behamdoun on the
Beirut-Damascus Highway.
