Jerusalem (JTA) — Prime Min-
ister Yitzhak Rabin has vowed to
continue the negotiations with
the Palestinians despite the lat-
est terror attack.
"The time has come to distin-
guish between Palestinians who
are the enemies of peace, and
those who seek a negotiated
agreement, to distinguish who
are the murderers among the
Palestinians," Mr. Rabin said in
remarks to the Israeli public just
hours after a suicide bomb ripped
through two commuter buses in
Jerusalem.
At least five people were killed,
including an American woman,
and more than 100 were injured
in the attack, which came one day
after Israel reopened the Gaza
Strip, which had been closed for
10 days after Israel received in-
telligence reports that funda-
mentalist terrorists were
planning a suicide bombing in Tel
Aviv.
Israel re-imposed a closure on
Gaza, as well as on the West
Bank, shortly after the bombing.
Although Mr. Rabin did not
waver in his resolve to continue
the talks, he temporarily sus-
pended the negotiations.
Among the opposition, howev-
er, leaders called for an abrupt
end to the talks. And within
hours of the bombing, demon-
strators were out on the streets,
both in Jerusalem and elsewhere
in Israel, sharply attacking the
Rabin government's peace poli-
cies.
The attack drew sharp words
of criticism from Palestine Lib-
eration Organization leader Yas-
sir Arafat.
In a speech at Al-Azhar Uni-
versity in Gala City, Mr. Arafat
lashed out at Iran for funding the
Islamic fundamentalist Hamas
movement, which claimed re-
sponsibility for the latest attack.
"Your money, your bombs and
your oil have not regained an inch
of our land for us," Mr. Arafat
said, addressing Iran.
"I will cut the hand of anyone
who takes orders from parties
outside the Palestinian arena or
anyone who receives external fi-
nancing, be it from Iran or oth-
ers," Mr. Arafat said.
Foreign Minister Shimon
Peres applauded Mr. Arafat's
stance, saying that the Pales-
tinians "know that terror is
aimed against them, not only
against us, that if there is some-
thing that can stop the Palestin-
ian hopes and destiny, it is
Palestinian terror."
The bombing also drew criti-
cism from world leaders, includ-
ing President Clinton, U.N.
Secretary-General Boutros
Boutros-Ghali and leaders of the
European Union.
Among the victims of the at-
tack on the No. 26 bus in the
northern Jerusalem neighbor-
hood of Ramat Eshkol was an
American tourist, identified by
the U.S. State Department as
Joan Devanney.
Two Americans were also
among the wounded, the State
Department said.
Following the attack, Mr. Ra-
bin held consultations with se-
curity advisers to discuss
measures that could be taken to
fight terror.
At a news conference after-
wards, Mr. Rabin said that when
the lives of Jews and Palestini-
ans were so intermingled, it is
nearly impossible to prevent such
terror attacks from happening.
Demonstrations against the
peace process took place at dif-
ferent intersections throughout
the country.
In Jerusalem, water cannons
were used at some sites to dis-
perse the crowds.
Despite Mr. Rabin's vow to
move ahead with the peace talks,
the attack seemed likely to cause
setbacks in the Israeli-Palestin-
ian negotiations.
Though a number of issues re-
mained unresolved, talks on ex-
panding Palestinian self-rule in
the West Bank had made signif-
icant progress in recent weeks.
Father Believes
Son Is Alive
Jerusalem (JTA) — The father of
an Israeli soldier who disap-
peared during the 1982 war in
Lebanon has rejected unofficial
assessments that his son is no
longer alive.
Yona Baumel said that in re-
cent weeks, the Israel Defense
Force has indicated to him that
his son, Zachariya, is dead.
He said he would continue to
insist that any conclusions drawn
about the fate of his son be based
on facts.
He also accused Palestinians
of withholding information about
his son and other soldiers who
have been missing since the Sul-
tan Yakub battle.
Mr. Baumel said the most re-
cent information he received on
his son was in May.
"We have a steady stream of
information that cross-checks
that at least some of the boys are
alive," he told Israel Radio.
Mr. Baumel said he believed
that his son was being held near
Lebanon's Bekaa Valley.
