Fatah Denies
Issuing Threat
Ramallah/JTA —Yasser Arafat's Fatah
movement denied any connection to a
leaflet calling for attacks on American
and Israeli targets.
The denial came after groups affili-
ated with the movement called on all
Palestinian organizations to strike at
the targets in response to U.S. opposi-
tion to Arafat's leadership. The
Palestinian news agency later put out a
statement in which Arafat distanced
himself from the statement, saying it
was not made in his name.

Jerusalem/JTA —Israeli Foreign
Minister Shimon Peres said he no
longer considers Yasser Arafat a peace
partner.
Addressing Labor Party members
Monday, Peres said that in the wake of
President Bush's speech last week,
which effectively rejected Arafat's con-
tinued leadership, Israel must seek or
create a new Palestinian partner to
fight terrorism and seek peace. Peres,
who was one of the architects of the
Oslo peace process, clarified his
remarks, saying Israel cannot deter-
mine the Palestinian leadership or give
the impression of doing so.
Asked whether he believed in con-
tinuing to speak with Arafat, Peres
told Israel Radio, "We should talk to
the people around Arafat because we
cannot stop the dialogue."
Israeli Reservists
Get The Call
Jerusalem/JTA — The Israeli army
began calling up thousands of
reservists to serve in the West Bank.
Israel Radio reported that the call-
up will focus on officers and com-
manders, with other soldiers being
summoned by next week.
Army officials said they are doing
their best not to call up men who had
been called up for duty earlier this year.

Billy Graham Blasts
Anti-Semitism
Cincinnati/JTA — The Rev. Billy
Graham spoke out against anti-
Semitism.
Graham spoke here before an esti-
mated 37,000 people. Referring to ris-
ing anti-Semitism in Europe, the
evangelical leader said, "We need to
do everything we can to be friends
and neighbors of the people who have
been chosen by God to be his peo-
ple."
Earlier last week, Graham apolo-
gized to Jewish leaders in the city for
anti-Semitic remarks he made in a
taped conversation with President
Nixon in 1972.
The leaders, including the heads of
the local federation, the Jewish com-
munity relations council and the
board of rabbis, said they accepted •
Graham's apology.

ZOA Puts Up
`Wanted' Posters
New York/JTA — The Zionist
Organization of America says it will
put up "wanted" posters of
Palestinians who killed Americans in
Israel.
ZOA President Morton Klein said
State Department officials have avoid-
ed offering rewards for the capture of
people accused of killing Americans in
Israel by naming the victims, not the
suspects, in the reward information.
In other countries, those suspected
of killing Americans have biographical
information posted on wanted
posters, Klein said. ZOA hopes to
place its posters in Palestinian cities in
the West Bank.
