United Nations (JTA) —
The United States this week
asked the United Nations
Security Council to approve
a resolution condemning
Israel for excessive use of
force in killing some 21 Pa-
lestinians during riots on
Jerusalem's Temple Mount
on Monday.
The United States late
Tuesday also proposed a
Security Council resolution
that would "welcome" a
decision by Secretary-
General Javier Perez de
Cuellar to send an emissary
to Jerusalem and the ter-
ritories to investigate the in-
cident.
According to Israeli
sources, the American draft
resolution also contains
language that is more bal-
anced than one floated by
the Arabs. It criticizes the
Palestinian rock-throwers as
well as the Israeli forces who
fired on the rioting crowds.
The Arab-proposed resolu-
tion would send a three-
member delegation to
"examine the current situa-
tion in Jerusalem."
In Jerusalem, Prime Min-
ister Yitzhak Shamir told
reporters his country would
not permit a Security Coun-
cil delegation to undertake
such a mission, a stand
Israel has taken in the past.
However, Israel tradi-
tionally has allowed
emissaries of the U.N. secre-
tary-general to undertake
fact-finding missions in the
administered territories.
At a White House news
conference on Tuesday, Pres-
ident Bush said, "I am very,
very saddened by this nee-
dless loss of life."
Mr. Bush said the Israelis
should have shown "greater
restraint" in trying to quell
the riot by the Palestinians,
who hurled rocks and bottles
from the Temple Mount at
Jews praying at the Western
Wall below.
But when the president
was asked if the incident
could drive a wedge in the
alliance against Saddam
Hussein's aggression, he
replied, "I don't think that it
could do that."
Mr. Bush said the Iraqi
leader has been trying since
his Aug. 2 invasion of
Kuwait to "tie it into the
Palestine question."
But this is "not working"
since the "Arab world is
united, almost united,
against him," Mr. Bush
maintained. He added that
Mr. Hussein will not be suc-

cessful in his effort, "and
certainly I will be doing
what I can to see that it is
not successful."
Mr. Bush has repeatedly
maintained that there is no
link between the Persian
Gulf crisis and the Israeli-
Palestinian issue. But in an
Oct. 1 speech to the U.N.
General Assembly, the pres-
ident indicated that once the
Gulf crisis is solved, the Pa-
lestinian issue can be dealt
with.
In an article in
Wednesday's Wall Street
Journal, Gerald M.
Steinberg, a strategic analy-
st at Israel's Bar-Ilan Uni-
versity, was quoted as say-
ing that the violence "could

the Arabs.

very easily put a lot of
pressure on the Egyptians
and Saudis to abrogate their
alliance with the U.S. Such a
move "would put pressure
on the U.S., which would
pressure Israel."
There was reason to expect
trouble Monday on the Tem-
ple Mount, since Arab re-
ligious leaders had been
exhorting Moslems for
several days to prepare to
repel the Temple Mount
Faithful.
The police have regularly
foiled that fringe group in
the past, but they may not
have sufficiently reassured
the Arabs that such was in-
deed official policy.
The violence in Jerusalem
had reverberations in the
administered territories and
in some Israeli Arab
villages. Several locations in
the West Bank and Gaza
Strip were placed under
curfew. Police clashed with
Israeli Arab villagers who
tried to set up roadblocks.
There were injuries on both
sides, none serious. The
police are investigating the
murder Monday night of a
Jewish cabdriver who might
have been a victim of
revenge for Arab casualties
on the Temple Mount. He
was found in his taxi, shot in
the hack, near the Arab
village of Abu Ghosh, west of
Jerusalem
