stronger than they had ever
been before. The then-
Director of the Central In-
telligence Agency, William
Casey, was authorizing in-
telligence sharing with Israel
that earlier had been
restricted. Casey had even
authorized the routine
transfer to Israel of satellite
reconnaissance photographs.
Thus, for Casey and other
strong supporters of Israel,
the Pollard affair was ex-
tremely painful. State
Department officials said
that Secretary of State
George Shultz, who has been
a great friend of Israel's, was
personally very upset. "It
really hurt Shultz," a State
Department official said.
"How could it have hap-
pened? It wasn't expected.'
These kinds of feelings will
not go away quickly.
In addition, American Jews
working in national security
areas will continue to feel
that they may be somewhat
suspect by their non-Jewish
colleagues. Probably more
than any other group of
Americans, these Jewish in-
telligence officials are most
furious about Pollard's ac-
tions. They believe that
Pollard — also a Jew —
seriously undermined their
own positions. There is no
doubt that Jews seeking to
serve in these kinds of posi-
tions will be more closely
scrutinized in the future than
they were in the past.
Elsewhere in the American
Jewish community, there was
some sense of relief that the
two Israel reports did not ac-
cuse any of the top political
leaders in Jerusalem of direct-
ly knowing about Pollard's es-
pionage activities. They
praised the reports as
underlining the democratic
character of Israel.
But there can be no deny-
ing that Israel's best friends
in the U.S., at the same time,
are becoming increasingly
embarrassed by the latest
wave of scandals coming out
of Israel. In the aftermath of
the Pollard affair, the Shin
Bet scandals, the arms sales
to Iran, the allegations of
covert Israeli support to the
contra rebels in Nicaragua,
the Israeli ties to South
Africa, Jewish terrorism on
the West Bank, and other sor-
did political developments in
Israel, even Israel's best
friends are becoming increas-
ingly prepared to accept some
ugly insinuations against
Israel.
But it would be a mistake
to conclude that all of these
latest developments in Israel
were dominating the thinking
of official Washington or the
American public. The big
stories in the United States
evolve around the Iran-contra
affair and the escalating ten-
sions in the Persian Gulf
following the Iraqi air attack
against the USS Stark. In ad-
dition, the soap opera-like sex
and money scandals involv-
ing the Rev. Jim Bakker and
his wife, Tammy, also
dominate the news.
But the cumulative public
relations damage to Israel's
image from all these nasty
developments, while perhaps
contained, is still real. El

ing any negotiations of their
own during their stay in
'Timis, said the PLO stopped
short of agreeing to abrogate
their charter which does not
recognize Israel's existence.
"They told us they cannot
now," admitted Hilda Silver-
man of New Jewish Agenda.
"It's a real psychological
problem for both sides."
Washinkton (:,ETA) — A
group of American Jews met
last month in Paths with
Palestine Liberation Organi-
zation (PLO) leaders in-
cluding Chairman Yasser
Arafat, it was reported last
week.
The three member delega-
tion, representing separate
peace organizations which
support a Palestinian state on
the West Bank and Gaza,
reported that the PLO made
clear its interest in a
negotiating a peace settle-
ment. "Anyone who doubts
that should get involved in
negotiations with the group,"
said Jerome Segal of the
Washington Area Jews for an
Israeli-Palestinian Peace.
