PREPARING
from page 32
pages of the report to the Mitchell
Commission because of-their role in
planning and carrying out the any-
thing-but-spontaneous uprising.
Some of the report's findings:
"Not only was the violence nur-
tured, planned and prosecuted as an
instrument of policy by the Palestin-
ian leadership but key elements of the
Palestinian security apparatus have
actively participated in the violence."
A Palestinian TV program called the
"Children's Club" uses a Sesame Street-
style format to encourage hatred and
violence towards Jews. One song shows
youngsters singing about wanting to
become "suicide warriors" and'another
shows them singing "when I wander
into Jerusalem, I will become a suicide
bomber" and another declares: "We
will settle our claims with stones and
bullets."
Some 27,000 Palestinian children
went to PA summer camps last year; a
videotape submitted to the Mitchell
Commission shows them getting
lessons on using firearms and slitting
Israeli throats.
Not only did Arafat violate signed
agreements to confiscate illegal
weapons, but he has been smuggling
and stockpiling large quantities of
hand grenades, rocket propelled
grenades, grenade launchers, anti-tank
missiles, shoulder launched anti-air-
craft missiles, cannons, machine guns,
mortars, mines and high explosives.
Little Time
Perhaps Mitchell's report will be more
fair and balanced than the one by
Mary Robinson, the United Nations
High Commissioner for Human
Rights, last November. She made vir-
tually no mention of Palestinian
attacks against Israelis, ignoring the
lynching of two Israel Defense Forces
reservists at the Ramallah police sta-
tion and the destruction of Joseph's
tomb and other Jewish holy sites; and
overlooked Arafat's use of children as
shield for his heavily armed police.
But Israel can expect to come in for
some tough criticism in the Mitchell
report as well as the State Department's
annual Human Rights Report for its
assassinations of intifada leaders, collec-
tive punishment measures and suspicion
of using excessive force.
The two reports and the policies they
scrutinize are the products of two previ-
ous governments, but the new leaders in
Washington and Jerusalem will have to
deal with them before they've had time
to find their bearings and get to know
each other.
