Abie Nathan
Detained In Israel

Tel Aviv (JTA) — Peace ac-
tivist Abie Nathan returned
to Israel from his latest
meeting with Yassir Arafat,
head of the Palestine Libera-
tion Organization, and was
detained as soon as he land-
ed.
Police from the serious
crimes unit took Mr. Nathan
from his plane, which had
just arrived at Ben-Gurion
Airport from Paris. He was
escorted to an unmarked car
after talking briefly with his
lawyer.
Mr. Nathan had said from
Paris before embarking that
he expected to be arrested
for his meetings with the
PLO chief, which violate an
Israeli law forbidding
meeting with members of
terrorist organizations, the
PLO specifically.
It is not known if he was
charged with anything.
Israeli police officials had
said he would be
"questioned" on arrival.
A small band of his sup-
porters demonstrated on Mr.
Nathan's behalf outside the
terminal, from which
reporters were blocked.
Mr. Nathan faces three
months of one suspended
prison sentence for a 1989
meeting with Arafat and a
trial in September for an-
other meeting with the PLO
leader. His latest encounter

with Mr. Arafat took place
in Tunis at the end of June.
He served four months of
the first sentence last year.
Mr. Nathan left to meet with
Mr. Arafat after holding
a lengthy, life-endangering
hunger fast to protest the
Israeli law that prohibits
such meetings.
Before leaving Paris, Mr.
Nathan disclosed that he
had applied for a visa to go to
Yemen, where he intended
to hold "meaningful political
talks" and visit the rem-
nants of the Jewish com-
munity there. But the visa
had not been forthcoming
and he apparently tired of
waiting.
Mr. Nathan also applied in
vain for visas to visit Jordan
and Sudan.
The peace activist
predicted he would face a
"witch hunt" upon his
return in a telephone inter-
view from Paris on July 7.
But he had said he had no
regrets about attending' Mr.
Arafat's news conference in
Tunis last month. Mr.
Nathan submitted 12 ques-
tions, to which the PLO
leader replied last week.
Mr. Arafat said he stands
ready to talk peace with
Israel. He then listed a
series of preconditions, none
of which would be remotely
acceptable to Israel.
