Israeli border police break up an anti-Arab demonstration after the
murder of Albert Buchris.

Jerusalem (JTA) — The
Cabinet decided Sunday to
again postpone discussion on in-
troducing the death penalty for
terrorist murderers, instead say-
ing it will use all existing legal
procedures to combat the new
wave of Arab terrorism in Israel
and the administered territories.
Last week the Cabinet also
decided not to debate the issue,
and instead announced the ap-
pointment of a seven-minister
committee headed by Defense
Minister Yitzhak Rabin to study
tougher penalties and preven-
tive measures against terrorism.
According to a communique
issued at the conclusion of the
weekly Cabinet session, there
exists sufficient operational and
punitive measures to secure law
and order in the territories.
These include administrative
arrests and deportation of those
who incite anti-Israel violence
and others who endanger the se-
curity of the state.
The Cabinet also decided to
expand prison facilities in the
administered territories. The
State Prosecutor's office notified
the government that it would do
its utmost to speed up the legal
process in cases that required
deportation.
Last week relations between
the two major parties in the na-
tional unity government suf-
fered a blow as Premier Shimon

Peres and Industry Minister
Ariel Sharon sharply clashed in
the Inner Cabinet session on
anti-terror measures.
According to some political
pundits, the differences might
soon develop into a full-scale co-
alition crisis, since major forces
in the alignment were only
waiting for an opportunity to
end the partnership with the
Likud, and to prevent the im-
plementation of the rotation
agreement which would hand
over the Premiership to Deputy
Premier Yitzhak Shamir in a
year's time.
The club muted due to the
fact that a resident of Mule,
employed as s civilian by the Is-
reel Defense force, was shot MP
ally in the back last week while
shopping in the West Bank town
ef Nablus,

Albert Buchris, who owned a
mobile food stall in Afula, had
been standing at a pita bread
stand making a purchase, when
he was shot at close range by an
unidentified male assailant.
Large forces of Israeli soldiers
patrolled the West Bank town in
a concerted effort to find Buc-
hris' killer.
The military authorities or-
dered the closure of the Arab
University of A-Najah in Nablus
for a period of two months.
The army spokesman said the
university was ordered closed
because of several conventions
and incitement acts by terror
organizations inside the campus.
However, the local Arab popula-
tion interpreted the closure as a
collective punitive measure, fol-
lowing Buchris' murder. The
National University of A-Najah
(which is the official name of
the institution) is considered one
of the strongholds of the PLO in
the territories.
In a related event, police re-
ports suggest that the murder of
two Afula school teachers last
week was not a planned ter-
rorist attack but a more or less
on-the-spot decision after the
three Arabs who have now re-
portedly confessed had been
threatened with a pistol.

USSR Relaxing
Views On Israel

Paris (JTA) — The Soviet
Union has somewhat changed
its Mideast policy and seems to
be steering a more moderate
course in its relations with Is-
rael, according to French
Foreign Minister Roland
Dumas.
French correspondents in Hel-
sinki where Dumas set with
Soviet Foreign Minister Edward
Bhevardnazdze report that the
French delegation sees a deft•
nits change in Moscow's policy
in the area.
Woo himself said this eve-
ning in radio interview that he
felt a change in Soviet policy
has taken place since the new
leadership took over,
