London (JTA) — British
Aerospace, the United
Kingdom's largest military
contractor and exporter of
manufactured goods, has ad-
mitted compliance with the
Arab boycott of Israel.
The admission came after
an embarrassing mistake in
which the company acciden-
tally submitted a boycott re-
quest to an American
supplier.
The company's media rela-
tions manager, Allan Piper,
told the London Jewish
Chronicle that in the past the
firm had guaranteed Arab
clients that no part of any
ordered aircraft had been
made in Israel.
"Certain Middle East coun-
tries insist on a clause in the
contract certifying that none
of the materials used in an
aircraft is of Israeli origin or
has any connection with
Israel," he said.
"It is not something we
would put in an order for any
components from America,
because of its anti-boycott rul-
ing. We would do so if we were
buying from a U.K. source,"
he said.
In December, the company's
military aircraft division,
placed an order worth a mere
$330 with Machine Com-
ponents Corp. in New York
state for six toggle switches
used on the joy stick pilots use
to steer British Aerospace's
Tornado jet fighter.
Under the heading "Rela-
tions With Israel," the order
sought a guarantee from the
supplier that none of the
parts was made in Israel,
made by an Israeli company
outside Israel or transported
by an Israeli carrier.
American companies can be
fined for bowing to boycott re-
quests and must report them
to the U.S. Department of
Commerce. Machine Com-
ponents Corp. notified the
U.S. authorities of the British
demand.
Piper said the boycott
clause on the order was a
mistake, "because the young
lady used the wrong form."
British Aerospace, he said,
apologized to the New York
firm, submitted a fresh order
and, as far as he knew, receiv-
ed the consignment of toggle
switches.
Asked whether it is right
for a major British company
to comply with the boycott,
Piper replied: "It's a difficult
question. You have a
customer and naturally you
try to conform to his wishes.
On occasions, political things
come into it as well."
A spokesman for the British
Department of Trade and In-
dustry said it advised British
companies about the ex-
istence of the Arab boycott,
but left it to them to decide
for themselves whether to
comply, based on their own
commercial judgment.
Habash Urges Attack
By Arabs On Israel
Jerusalem (JTA) — The
leader of the second largest
faction in the Palestine
Liberation Organization has
called on Arab nations to join
in an all-out assault against
the "Israeli enemy."
Dr. George Habash, head of
the Popular Front for the
Liberation of Palestine,
described the Palestinian
uprising in the West Bank
and Gaza Strip as a prelude
to the "complete liberation of
the national Palestinian soil."
He said that effort must
now be assisted in the form of
assaults on Israel from "all
Arab borders."
Habash, whose faction is
the second largest in the PLO
after Yassir Arafat's Al
Fatah, made the remarks in
an interview last Friday with
"Voice of the Mountain," a
Druse radio station in
Lebanon. The Palestinian
uprising, he explained, is a
new phase in the armed
struggle against Israel. Its
goal, "the establishment of a
Palestinian state in the West
Bank and Gaza," will be "the
beginning of the downfall of
the Zionist enterprise," he
predicted.
In the meantime, Israel's
Arab neighbors must lend the
Palestinians a hand, Habash
said, "by raining blows upon
the Israeli enemy army on all
Arab borders.
"That means to expand the
operations now being carried
out from Lebanon to the Jor-
danian, Syrian and Egyptian
arenas," he said.
He added, "We expect of our
masses within the occupied
land that they will inflict
deaths among the enemy,
since it was this action which
brought about the
withdrawal of Israeli forces
from Lebanon in 1984-85."
Habash resigned from the
