"The Shiites are the most
dangerous terror we are facing
now," Col. (Ret.) Yakov Heichal,
special adviser to Israel Prime
Minister Shimon Peres said last
week.
Speaking on "Terrorism in the
Middle East" at a forum at the
Engineering Society of Detroit
auditorium, Heichal said there
are four Shiite subgroups who
pose a terroristic threat in the
Mideast.
They are the so-called moder-
ates; the Party of God, who are
linked to the "suicidal Shiites";
The Soldiers of God, who Heichal
called very extreme; and the
Lebanese Shiites. These groups,
he said, usually get their orders
from Iran.
Heichal said terrorism is not an
invention of the 20th Century,
and added that there was ter-
rorism in Israel before it became a
state. He said in Israel today,
there are three major terror
groups: the Palestine Liberation
Organization, the Lebanese
Shiites and some Jewish organ-
izations.
He talked about what he called
a Jewish underground and added
that the "supposition that the pos-
sibility of this is impossible in Is-
rael" is false.
He called terrorism in the Mid-
dle East an ever-present problem.
"There is a problem. You can't es-
cape it. The problem is south
Lebanon. There they are lunatics
and fanatics an d the threat is a
real threat."
Col. Uwe Dee of West Ger-
many's elite commando squad
which is aimed at combatting ter-
rorism and violent crimes in the
Federal Republic of Germany said

that the aims of West German ter-
rorists are strictly political.
"Terrorists in Germany only
want to change the system." Dee
said the terrorists are usually or-
ganized groups who seek their ob-
jectives by violence and added
that they receive paramilitary
training. He said the biggest
threat in West Germany today is
the Red Army Faction and revolu-
tionary cells.
He said the RAF is in its third
generation of existence, with the
first and second having been kil-
led or captured. In 1984, the top
six terrorists were caught, he
said.
Lt. Col. (Ret.) Thomas Fairris
gave characteristics of terror
groups operating in the U.S. For-
merly attached to the U.S. Army,
Fairris developed the manage-
ment structure and implemented
the Army's anti-counterterrorism
program in Europe and in the
Middle East.
He said terror groups in the
U.S. are formed to change the
existing political system; are
clandestine and revolutionary op-
erations; and that the partici-
pants have "distinctions of lead-
ership." Their ultimate aim, he
said, is that "they want to take
over."
Fairris said there were 51 inci-
dents of terror in the U.S. in 1982.
Included were 28 bombings and 9
attempted bombings. Commercial
establishments were the most
common targets of terror attacks
and most of the incidents took
place in the northeastern U.S. In
1983, Fairris said that 31 of the
incidents happened in the same
areas, such as New York.
By 1983, Fairris said, the
number of bombings dropped, as
did the number of attacks against
commercial buildings. However,
he said attacks against U.S. gov-
ernment buildings and property
increased between 1982 and 1983.
In North America, there was a 2.4
percent increase in terrorism in
1983.
The colloquium, entitled "In-
ternational Terrorism: A Current
Perspective," was sponsored by
the Center for Industrial Safety
and Security, Wayne State Uni-
versity; the Center for Peace and
Conflict Studies, WSU; Engineer-
ing Society of Detroit; Society of
Sigma Xi, WSU Chapter, Ford
Motor Co. Chapter and the BASF
Wyandotte Club. Dr. Walter
Jones, provost and senior vice
president, WSU, was the mod-
erator.
Jews, Christians unite to protest
Soviet Union's treatment of Jews
New York (JTA) — Braving the
cold weather, more than 20 politi-
cal and Jewish and Christian
religious leaders demonstrated at
noon last week across from the
Soviet Mission to the United Na-
tions on behalf of Soviet Jewry.
Carrying signs calling for
"Freedom For Soviet Jews" and
wearing a tag stating "I am fast-
ing on behalf of Soviet Jewry," the
demonstrators came to protest the
arrests in recent months of five
Soviet Jewish Hebrew teachers
and cultural leaders as well as the
increased anti-Semitism and con-
tinued opperession of Jews in the
Soviet Union.-
The demonstration was part of
a dawn-to-dusk community fast
organized by . the Greater New
York Conference on Soviet Jewry
to express solidarity with scores of
Soviet Jewish activists who are
currently on a hunger strike in
support of other Jews who are
awaiting trial.
The current crisis confronting
Soviet Jews was touched off by the
arrest of Aleksandr Khol-
miansky, an important Moscow
Hebrew teacher, this past sum-
mer. According to the conference,
Kholmiansky began a hunger
strike on Sept. 13 to protest fal-
sified evidence gathered against
him.
Since his arrest, four other ac-
tivists — Yuli Edelshtein of Mos-
cow and Yakov Levin, Yakov
Mesh, and Mark Nepomniashchy
of Odessa — have also been ar-
rested. All five are now awaiting
trial.
In a related development,
former prisoner of conscience Dr.
Evgeny Lein of Leningrad was
badly beaten by the KGB last
week after he met with three
foreign tourists, according to the
Long Island Committee for Soviet
Jewry and Student Struggle for
Soviet Jewry.
Secret police agents also tried to
break in Saturday on the brit of
David Tzvi Elman, the eight-
day-old son of Leningrad activist
Mikhail Elman, who was himself
beaten severely by the KGB twice
last week. Elman refused to let
them in, asserting it was against
health regulations for them to in-
troduce on the circumcision.
It was also learned that a Soviet
television program attacking dis-
sidents and Soviet Jews, and cit-
ing "International Zionism and
the control that American Jewish
capital has on the United States"
was aired on Nov. 12 in Lenin-
grad, the Greater New York Con-
ference on Soviet Jewry reported.
The film featured photographs
of several Leningrad refuseniks
and attacked Lev Shapiro, Yakov
Gorodetsky, Leonid Kelbert,
Yakov Rabinovich, losif
Rad9myslasky, Aba Taratuta,
Grigory Vasserman, and Roald
Zelichonok, refuseniks who com-
prise the core of the activist com-
munity in Leningrad, and who
have been waiting a total of 53
years to emigrate to Israel.
In Toronto, an expert on inter-
national law, human rights and
Soviet Jewry said that the Jewish
community must "fine tune" its
responses to the Soviet Union on
the issue of Jewish emigration
and to forego an unvarying "shrei
gevalt" (cry of distress) reaction
regardless of how many Jews are
allowed to emigrate annually.
Yoram Dinstein, rector of the
Tel Aviv University, told several
hundred people attending a ses-
sion on "The Rescue of Soviet
Jewry: Whose Responsibility?" At
the 53rd General Assembly of the
Council of Jewish Federations
that it becomes counter-
productive to denounce the Soviet
Union with unyielding intensity
when it permits thousands of
Jews to leave and when it closes
the gates to emigration and
allows only a handful to leave.
Whether the Soviets allow
thousands ofJews to leave or only
tens ofJews, the Soviets are send-
ing a message, and the message is
16A: ■•■•■ ••••• 4
different at different times and
must be understood in context, he
said.
"We must give signals to the
Soviet Union if they do something
favorable and we must pick up the
gauntlet if they don't," Dinstein
said. If the Jewish community
"shries gevalt" when 51,000 Jews
are allowed to leave, as they were
in 1979, the peak year of Jewish
emigration, "what are we left
with" when the Soviets allow less
than 1,000 to leave, as this year?
Dinstein warned against crying
wolf or exaggerating the condi-
tions of Jews in the USSR.
Crying wolf and exaggerating
the situation only tends to dis-
credit the Soviet Jewry movement
and results in a loss of sympathy
or interest in the real problems
facing Soviet Jews, he observed.
Dinstein said the Soviet Union
lets Jews go on the basis of East-
West detente. The Soviets do not
give anything away without mak-
ing certain that they receive in
return a concession from the Wst
commensurate with what they
have given away.
Reagan asks Shultz
to remain on job
Washington (JTA) — President
Reagan has requested that
George Shultz continue in his post
as Secretary of State during the
next term, according to State De-
partment spokesman John
Hughes.
Shultz and the President have
had several conversations and
meetings recently including one
last Thursday which included the
national security advisor, Robert
McFarlane. Hughes stated that
the three officials discussed the
course of foreign policy.
Hughes did not know whether
Shultz has asked any high rank-
ing State department officials to
continue in their positions.
