Panama Bombing Linked To Terror Wave `Adornment Is Never Anything Except A Reflection Of The Heart" -Coco Chanel New York (JTA) — The Pana- manian Jewish community and international law-enforcement officials now believe that last month's bombing of a Panaman- ian commuter plane, in which 21 people were killed, 12 of them Jewish, was in fact part of a wave of terrorist attacks targeting Jews around the world. Earlier theories about the ex- plosion linked the attack to the Panamanian authorities had de- tained one Lebanese and two Ira- nians for suspected involvement in the July 19 downing of the plane. However, they were re- leased for lack of evidence tying them to the bombing.

Mr. Schwartz reportedly was under investigation by Italian au- thorities for links to the Colom- bian-based Medellin cocaine cartel. T ast year, Mr. Schwartz, a gold dealer, was kidnapped and later released, according to sources fa- miliar with the Panamanian community. The kidnapping was believed tied to the drug cartel, community sources said. But "the Jewish community (of Panama) has largely been dis- counting the initial reports of some possible ties to a Colombian cartel because of the 12 Jews on the plane, including the three Is- raelis," said Warren Eisenberg, director of the International Council of B'nai B'rith. Mr. Eisenberg, who has been in touch with the Panamanian branch of B'nai B'rith, noted that Mr. Schwartz had not been ex- pected to be on that plane, which was en route from Colon, a com- mercial free-trade center, to Panama City. The route is one commonly taken by Jewish busi- ness executives. The other 11 Jewish passen- gers were daily commuters on that particular flight, said Mr. Eisenberg.

The Panamanian explosion is "now being mentioned as part of a package of terrorist attacks that occurred in the last weeks," Mr. Eisenberg said. He referred to the attacks on Jewish targets in Buenos Aires, in which about 100 people were killed, and London, in which about 18 people were in- jured.
