Syria Seen
As Key Player

New York (JTA) — The out-
come in Lebanon proved that
Syria has the power to veto any
peace negotiations between Jor-
dan, the Palestine Liberation
Organization and Israel, Middle
East expert Milton Viorst be-
lieves. Viorst also feels that a
West Bank settlement can not be
reached without Syrian coopera-
tion.
"Israel's present government is
surely more practical than the
last," Viorst wrote in an Op-Ed
piece last week in the New York
Times. "And (Syrian President)
Hafez Assad knows that among
Arabs, the ferment for peace is ris-
ing.
"The time appears ripe for
(President) Reagan to play the
Syria-Israel card," Viorst wrote,
urging the revival of the Adminis-
tration's 1982 Middle East Peace
Initiative.

Jewish Family
Joins IDF
In Pullout

Tel Aviv (JTA) — The last
Jewish family to reside in the
South lebanon port town of Sidon
left with the withdrawing Israel
Defense Force (IDF) and arrived
in Israel MOnday.
The Levi family consists of a
widowed mother, Yaffa, her four
children, aged 17-25, and an aunt.
Her husband died eight years ago.
The Jews of Sidon began to
leave as long ago as the Israeli
War of Independence in 1948.
Most of the remaining Jews left
when the Lebanese Civil War
began in 1975.
The IDF liaison unit helped the
Levis sell some of their property,
including a citrus grove. It also
helped sell the property of other
Jewish families who left in recent
months, including shops.
The Levi family told their
neighbors they were going to
Brazil but had to travel via Israel
because of the dangers of travel-
ling via Beirut. They were issued
Israeli immigrant certificates
when they arrived at the Nakura
border post.
They left Sidon just before the
Shiite extremists began rioting
the town in the wake of the IDF's
departure. Thousands of Shiite
fundamentalists, followers of the
Ayatollah Khomeini of Iran,
poured through the streets of Si-
don, ripping down posters of Pres-
ident Amin Gemeyal 24 hours
after the Maronite Christian
President was given a hero's wel-
come there. The rioters demanded
his ouster and the establishment
of a Moslem state in Lebanon to
replace the traditional multi-
confessional republic.
Lebanese army troops who took
over the town after the Israelis
left on Saturday were reported to
be powerless to establish order. At
one army post outnumbered
Lebanese soldiers tried to stop
demonstrators who surrounded
them and tore down Lebanon's
National flag. Soldiers retrieved
the flag but the demonstrators
tore it down again.
