STONE SAID he has a "terrible sense
of foreboding" that the recent events
in history "will lead the world to get
caught in an irresistable momentum of
destruction."
Americans have failed to fully
understand changes in the world
situation that have come into play since
the development of the atomic bomb,
said Stone.
"Many problems of today can't be
solved by military means, and yet when
these crises occur, they bring out the
primitive ,instincts in human
beings ... it's leading us close to the
brink," Stone said.
"When you spend as much money as
we do on the military, there is a
tendency to look toward military
solutions to your problems," he said.
"THE PERIOD of the U.S. being the
number one power in the world has
passed," Stone said. The Russians have
become our equals in building military
cruisers, he noted, as well as our
adversaries in the "nuclear deadlock."
He called for patience and caution so
that clashes could be avoided.
"Except in small skirmishes, war is no
longer a tenable solution. Today war is
something that nobody can really win,"
Stone said. "People talk about the
hostage situation in Iran ... why, all of

targets late Thursday night killed 11
persons and wounded 17, officials
reported. An official spokesman in
Sidon, the southern provincial capital,
said seven guerrillas from the pro-
Syrian Saiqa party were killed by a
"booby-trapped" radio left by an
Israeli raiding party. Four guerrillas
were reported wounded.
A 35-YEAR-OLD Lebanese man died
when the cement truck he was driving
was rocketed near the village of Kfar-
wa, 10 miles north of Israel's northern
Galilee panhandle, the spokesman said.
Thirty miles west of Kfarwa and 12
miles north of the Israeli border, the
port city of Tyre and the nearby
Palestinian refugee camps of
Rashidiyeh, el Bass and Bourj el
Shimali, were bombarded by Israeli
naval guns. One Palestinian man and
two women were killed, and 10 persons
were wounded, a spokesman for the
governor of Tyre said.
Israeli military officials said the raids
were a "preventive action" to disrupt
guerrillas preparations for attacks on
Israel, such as an attempted guerrilla
incursion Wednesay night.
LEBANESE PRIME Minister Salim
el-Hoss condemned the attacks as "new
evidence of Israel's arrogance and
defiance of U.S. resolutions and inter-
natonal principle."
Yesterday, Palestinian guerrillas
and Lebanese Christian militia forces
exchanged heavy fire, and Israeli bor-
der troops lobbed artillery rounds at
guerrilla targets to help their Christian
allies, an army spokesman in Tel Aviv
said.
The spokesman said the Christian en-
claves of Klieyia and Marjayoun were
hit hard by Palestinian gunners, and
Israeli troops on the Israel-Lebanon
frontier fired on Palestinian targets
about nine miles northwest of the bor-
der. It was not known if there were
casualties.
THE THURSDAY night raids came a
day after three Palestinian guerrillas
infiltrated into northern Israel in an at-
tempt to attack the upper Galilee kib-
butz of Hanita. Israeli trooops illed all
three.
They also came within hours of a
sudden reversal by Sadat, who said that
he would suspend Egypt's participation
in the talks regarding Palestinian self-
rule in the occupied West Bank and the
Gaza Trip. Begin's response was to call
Sadat's reversal "incomprehensible."
Sadat announced Wednesday that
Egypt was willing to rejoin the
negotiations that were broken off May
8, even though he felt the gap on basic
issues was "formidable." However, af-
ter a top level strategy meeting Thur-
sday Sadat changed his mind and the
verbal duel with Begin began.
