New York (JTA) — The
mayor of Jerusalem, mem-
bers of Congress and nearly
every major American Jew-
ish organization have
weighed in with immediate
criticism of U.N. Security
Council Resolution 280.
Jerusalem Mayor Ehud
Olmert sent a letter to Pres-
ident Clinton expressing
"shock and disappointment"
that the U.S. government
did not veto the U.N. resolu-
tion.
The letter stated, "This
resolution, which is intended
to entice the PLO back to the
negotiation table, will in fact
create serious obstacles in
the peace process" by raising
"false and unrealistic expec-
tations on the part of the Pa-
lestinians regarding the
future of Jerusalem.
"The people of Israel will
refuse to support any move
that raises doubts as to the
status of Jerusalem as the
united capital of the State of
Israel.
"As mayor of Jerusalem,
and on behalf of all
Jerusalemites, I have to ex-
press to you my deep disap-
pointment that you did not
instruct (U.N.) Ambassador
(Madeleine) Albright to pre-
vent the adoption of this
resolution," the letter said.
The resolution, which was
passed three weeks after the
mass murder of at least 29
Palestinians at a Hebron
mosque, criticized the kill-
ings, called for measures to
guarantee that Palestinians
be protected in the future
and for the speedy
implementation of the self-
rule accord signed last
September in Washington.
But the resolution's
preamble contained lang-
uage regarding Jerusalem
that Jewish leaders found
impossible to swallow.
Within hours of the resolu-
tion's passage, condemna-
tion of the resolution's lang-
uage was issued by leading
Jewish organizations, in-
cluding the American Israel
Public Affairs Committee,
the Conference of Presidents
of Major American Jewish
Organizations, the National
Jewish Community Rela-
tions Advisory Council,
B'nai B'rith, the Zionist
Organization of America
and the American Zionist
Movement.
Referring to "territories
occupied by Israel in June
1967, including Jerusalem,"

the preamble's avowal that
Jerusalem was occupied ter-
ritory flew in the face of a
prime dictum of the Israeli
and American Jewish
leadership — that Jerusalem
is the eternal and undivided
capital of Israel.
In a compromise formula
worked out before the
resolution came to a vote,
the United States was able
to abstain on this and an-
other paragraph of the

preamble while being able to
approve the resolution as a
whole.
In addition to abstaining
on the paragraph about. the
status of Jerusalem, the
United States abstained on a
second paragraph that said
the Hebron attack
"underlines the need to pro-
vide protection and security
for the Palestinian people."
That language could be
construed as lending support
to the Palestine Liberation
Organization's demand that
an international force be
sent to the territories to pro-
tect Palestinians.
A paragraph in the main
body of the resolution, which
the United States supported,
called for an international
presence in the territories,
"which was provided for in
the declaration of prin-
ciples" that formed the basis
of the Palestinian self-rule
accord.
Israeli officials have sup-
ported the idea of an un-
armed international
presence in the territories,
stressing that this was a
point already negotiated in
the declaration of principles,
which was signed in Wash-
ington in September.
