Arafat's Control
Is Questioned

Washington (JTA) — The
Clinton administration
thinks the Palestine Libera-
tion Organization is in com-
pliance with pledges to re-
nounce terrorism, but it also
believes PLO Chairman
Yassir Arafat lacks the abil-
ity to control various PLO-
T related factions.
In a report submitted this
week to Congress, the State
Department said, "We
believe that the PLO is com-
plying with the com-
mitments embodied in the
Declaration of Principles,"
which was signed in
September, and in letters to
Israeli Prime Minister Yit-
zhak Rabin and the late
Norwegian Foreign Minister
Johan Holst.
The report added,
however, that "rejectionist
elements who claim to be
under the PLO umbrella
continue to commit terrorist
acts."
"At the same time, both
the U.S. and the Israeli
government recognize that
Arafat has no real ability to
exert operational control
over these groups," the
report said.
The Israeli government is
expected to study the report
and comment on it in the
future.
The 11-page report, dated
Jan. 10, was prepared in re-
sponse to a 1990 law requir-
ing the administration to
report to Congress every 120
days on PLO activities, if the
administration is involved
in a dialogue with the PLO.
A State Department
spokesman said he thought
the report was the first since
the United States resumed
its dialogue with the PLO
shortly before the signing of
the Israeli-PLO accord on
Sept. 13.
Many in Congress remain
wary of the PLO, which has
long been connected to
various terrorist groups.
On Sept. 9, Mr. Arafat said
in a letter to Mr. Rabin that
the PLO recognized Israel's
right to exist and that he re-
nounced terrorism and
violence.
The Jan. 10 report in-
cludes a list of terrorist in-
cidents conducted by Pales-
tinian groups — most of
whom reject the Israeli-PLO
agreement — since the
agreement was signed in
September.
The PLO consists of
various groups, with varying
relationships to Arafat and
varying views of the Israeli-
PLO agreement. 11]
