Summing up the interfaith
study mission he recently led,
Rev. James R. Lyons called on
Jews and Christians to stand
strongly behind Israel, "a nation
which is still democratic, a nation
which is struggling with its very
existence."
Speaking to the Allied Jewish
Campaign's Professional Health
Division, Lyons is just back from
his second ecumenical study mis-
sion to Israel, made up of 23
Christian lay people and clergy.
Founder and director of the Ecu-
menical Institute for Jewish-
Christian studies, Lyons is a
staunch supporter of Israel and
has made a commitment to com-
batting anti-Semitism.
Since 1967, Lyons has visited
Israel every year. His interfaith
missions give participants a
chance to see the state through
the eyes of another faith.
This year's group of Catholics
and Protestants met with Jews,
Palestinians and Arabs. Accord-
ing to Lyons, "We heard a plea for
peace that I've never heard be-
fore." Many Palestinians said,
"The PLO does not represent - us.
They control the guns and the
streets, but they don't control the
hearts and minds of the people." A
Christian-Arab said, "We have to
learn to live together in peace."
Rev. Lyons said, "Those 23
Christians came back dedicated to
the land and the hope (of Israel).
Dedicated in a way they never
knew."
Professional Health Division
volunteers were given certificates
of appreciation at the meeting for
their work on the Allied Jewish
Campaign. Dr. John D. Marx,
chairman of the division, made a
plea for additional gifts toward
Operation Moses, the effort to as-
sist in the absorption of Ethiopian
Jews in Israel. He also stressed
the need for increased Campaign
giving.

Washington (JTA) — The State
Department on Monday rejected
the contention that a report is-
sued in Israel, showing that the
Israeli government now controls
52 percent of the land on the West
Bank, means that the area can
never be returned to the Arabs.
"As we have said on many occa-
sions, we regard settlement ac-
tivity in the occupied territories
as an obstacle to the peace proc-
ess," Department spokesman
Bernard Kalb, said. "We do not,
however, share the view that ac-
tivities on the ground rule out the
possibility of a negotiated settle-
ment."
Kalb's remarks came after he
refused to comment on a report
released in Jerusalem by the West
Bank Data Base Project headed
by Meron Benvenisti, a former
Deputy Mayor of Jerusalem. The
study, called "Land Alienation on
the West Bank: A Legal and Spat-
ial Analysis," charges that the Is-
raeli government has taken con-
trol of more than half of the land
through questionable legal means
which has resulted in leaving
Jewish settlers with all of the area
available for growth on the West
Bank. The West Bank Data Base
Project is funded by grants from
the Ford and Rockefeller founda-
tions.
Benvenisti was quoted as say-
ing that the data in the report re-
veals that Israel's control of the
West Bank has gone beyond the
point where it can ever be re-
turned to Arab sovereignty.
Kalb said the State Department
has not yet seen the report but "we
look forward to the opportunity to
study the report in detail." He
noted, "The facts brought out by
the studies, such as the 1984 re-
port by the West Bank Data Base
Project, point to the urgency of
achieving a negotiated resolution
of the Arab-Israeli conflict based
on Israel's return of territory in
exchange for a just and durable
peace. To this end, we remain
committed to the positions set
forth in the President's Sept. 1,
1982 peace initiative."
Benvenisti's 1984 report was a
detailed study of Israel's policies
on the West Bank which predicted
the conclusions of the study re-
leased this week.
