"This way, they don't feel isolated and that nobody cares." Moral support has brought a great deal of help to the Palestinians. According to a brochure, among the PAS ac- complishments are building in 1981 a bomb shelter for the Burj al-Shamali refugee camp in south Lebanon; providing funds for the Prisoners Defense Committee in the West Bank and Gaza; and selling more than $250,000 worth of embroidery made by Palestinian women. In 1988, the PAS also "directed all efforts — political and financial — sup- porting the uprising." "They don't go in and buy firebombs or sharp stones," an observer at the Israeli Con- Zip sulate in Chicago said. "But they support those involved in the intifada." Ameri agrees the PAS sup- ports those involved in the uprising, but only by "helping organizations that give jobs to women and helping families of political prisoners. From our perspective, that is help- ing the intifada." That's what the PAS has done. Ameri is equally ada- mant about what it has not done — fund the PLO. Rumors to that effect erupted into a full-scale dispute when, during a recent CNN broadcast, a disguised figure said the PAS diverts funds to the PLO. Ameri is considering taking legal action. "The PLO doesn't need our money, believe me," Ameri Will The Real PAS Please Stand Up? The Palestine Aid Society. The Arab American Anti- Discrimination Committee. The United Holy Land Fund. Add them all up and what does it spell? It spells bad news for Israel, according to Irwin Suall, fact-finding director for the Anti-Defamation League of B'nai B'rith in New York. "The Palestine Aid Socie- ty is part of a broad move- ment that is dedicated to do- ing in the State of Israel and alienating the American people from the Jewish state," he said. Suall, who has researched numerous Arab-American groups in the United States, is-not impressed by PAS pro- nouncements that it sup- ports a two-state solution in the Middle East. Its actions indicate otherwise, he said. He cited PAS backing of the establishment of a Palesti- nian state; its continued op- position to American aid to Israel; its support for the Arabs in every war with Israel; and the fact that the PAS never opposed acts of terrorism committed against Israel by the Palestine Liberation Organization. He noted several PAS pamphlets circulated in 1983, one called Zionism Is a Form of Racism and Racial Discrimination. He Name State Continued from preceding page . 350 W. 8 MILE RD. - HAZEL PARK SHOWROOM: MON-FRI 8 Palestinian Pipeline termed this "characteristic of their propaganda." To prove the PAS has backed its words through support of the PLO is another matter, Suall said. The difficulty in tracing whether funds generated by groups like the PAS go to the PLO is that no "I Sup- port the PLO" campaign ex- ists. Instead, Suall explain- ed, these groups send money to places controlled by the PLO. He pointed to the PAS's donations, beginning in 1980, to Association Najdeh, which provides training in such areas as typing, sewing and English language for Palestinian women and children in refugee camps. Palestinian refugee camps were, in the early 1980s, controlled by the PLO, Suall said. "And from the early 1980s through the mid-1980s, there was no dispute about the terrorist nature of the PLO," he said. While the group most fre- quently mentioned in the same breath as the PAS is the PLO, the Detroit organization also has had numerous contacts with communists. Guest speakers at recent PAS conventions have included Rob Prince, leader of the Communist Party in Colorado and now a full-time member with the World Peace Council, which Suall described as "a Soviet- front organization"; Tawfiq Zayyad, a member of the Communist Party in Israel and former mayor of Nazareth; and Gus Newport, a former mayor of Berkely, Calif., whom Suall described as "an extreme lef- tist." — E.K.
