Will terrorism increase?
Maybe, but the main propa-
gators of terror don't support the
peace process. The Muslim rad-
icals have been conducting a ji-
had to regain Jerusalem since
1967 and will continue to wage
their holy war if Israel holds any
territory in the Islamic world.
The conversion of Mr. Indyk
demonstrates the State Depart-
ment cannot be changed from
within. Unfortunately, even a
more determined effort in Con-
gress is unlikely to have any
greater success. The 1990 reso-
lution declaring that "Jerusalem
is and should remain the capital
of the State of Israel" was ignored
by President Bush. Maybe if Con-
gress cut off funding to the em-
bassy in Tel Aviv and only
approved money for one in
Jerusalem, the administration
would be forced to act. A friend-
ly letter to Warren Christopher
won't do the job.
In the end, though, it is going
to take a president willing to take
a stand, the way Harry Truman
did when he overruled the State
Department to support partition
and made sure the United States
was the first nation to recognize
Israel.
No president has talked more
about needing courage to make
changes than Bill Clinton. Jews

the reality that Jerusalem is Is-

to force a change in U.S. policy, bit
the effort is halfhearted. Rather
than propose legislation, members
have written to the secretary of
state requesting that the U.S. Em-
bassy be moved to Jerusalem by
1999. Despite the consensus on
Jerusalem, the pro-Israel commu-
nity is reluctant to push the mat-
ter, primarily because neither the
Israeli Labor government nor its
Likud predecessors have made the
location of the embassy an issue
and have discouraged lobbying on
the matter.
Republicans may try to em-
barrass the president by forcing
him to oppose moving the em-
bassy, a position that will be un-
popular with Jewish voters in
1996. Frankly, Mr. Clinton de-
serves to be embarrassed for ad-
hering to the State Department's
doctrine.
During the 1992 presidential
campaign, he said: "I recognize
Jerusalem is an undivided city,
the eternal capital of Israel, and
I believe in the principle of mov-
ing our embassy to Jerusalem."
He has never publicly restat-
ed this position as president,
however, and his decision to ab-
stain on last year's United Na-
tions resolution labeling the city
occupied territory fed the Arab
ambition of gaining control of Is-
rael's capital.
