Training Film
Is Withdrawn

Los Angeles (JTA) — A
training film that depicts
Muslims as the main ter-
rorist threat to Americans
has been suspended at a U.S.
Marine Corps base, follow-
ing protests from an Ameri-
can-Arab organization and a
Muslim Marine sergeant.
The protest was filed by
the American-Arab Anti-
c Discrimination Com-
mittee, which patterns itself
on the Anti- Defamation
League, the well-known
Jewish defense organization.
Anti-Discrimination
Committee President Albert
Mokhiber charged in a letter
that the film American Ex-

4

pose TARGET USA,shown

at the El Toro Marine Air
Corps Station in California,
"contained numerous distor-
tions and inaccuracies," the
Los Angeles Times reported.
Mr. Mokhiber further
complained that while the
film focuses "only on the
Middle East, specifically
Arabs and Moslems," a 1990
U.S. State Department
report on terrorism showed
that only eight of 223 anti-

American incidents.
