2 - The Michigan Daily - Friday, September 22, 1995 Fresh clashes erupt in West Bank NABLUS, West Bank (AP) - The sights and smells in this West Bank city yesterday were eerily familiar, remi- niscent of six years of Palestinian re- volt. Israeli soldiers, sitting in the backs of jeeps with assault rifles, chased Pales- tinian stone throwers through streets littered with twisted metal and other debris. The stench ofburningtires mixed with the sting of tear gas. Iron shop doors in the old market district were shuttered as part of a strike protesting the killings of two Palestin- ians by Israeli troops during riots Wednesday. The clashes in Nablus were a re- minder that violence lurks just under the surface in the West Bank, violence that could erupt in full force should Israeli and PLOCnegotiators fail to reach agreement on expanding self-rule. The two sides, already more than a year behind schedule, are hung up over security questions that top-level talks this week have failed to resolve. "If we come to the conclusion that there is no peace, I think our young people will fight," said Mayor Ghassan Shakaa, speaking in his office deco- rated with a framed portrait of PLO chief Yasser Arafat and a bed sheet- sized Palestinian flag. "I don't think it will be like in the uprising, with stones," Shakaa added ominously, referring to the 1987-93 re- volt against Israeli occupation that helped bring both sides to the negotiat- ing table. His unspoken suggestion: Some Palestinians might resort to guns. His words were punctuated by the booms of tear gas canisters fired by Israeli soldiers dispersing stone throwersjust a few hundred yards away. The road outside Shakaa's office, like all down-town thoroughfares, were littered with stones, scrap metal and dumpsters used as makeshift roadblocks to slow army jeeps. The latest violence in Nablus began Wednesday morning, when PLO activ- recognized several Israeli undercover agents who had blended into the crowd, carrying stones. When spotted, the agents opened fire, Abed said. Nashaat Haroun, 24, was killed and 11 were wounded, including Abed, who was recovering from shots in the right arm and thigh at Raffidiyeh Hospital. The army denies undercover troops were at the scene. Despite the violence, there were some AUINAL REPORI Quayle to lead Dole's political group WASHINGTON - In a dramatic overture to social conservatives, GOP presidential front-runner Bob Dole announced yesterday that Dan Quayle would take charge of a political committee Dole has used to support Republican candidates for nearly two Y . decades. In becoming chairman of Campaign America, the former vice president did not endorse Dole's presidential campaign. But Dole aides predicted the association would solidify Dole's standing with Christian conservatives, an important Republi- can primary constituency. "I can think of no American who is better qualified to lead the Quay battle for Republican victories in the vital elections that lie ahead," Dole, the Senate majority leader, said in a statement. "Dan Quayle has been a trailblazer for issues and ideas that sparked the Republican revolution of 1994. At the helm of Campaign America, he is sure to keep up that fight." Quayle was on the verge of entering the 1996 presidential race himself earlier this year, but abruptly changed his plans after assessing the daunting fund-raising and organizational hurdles. He later ruled out running for Indiana governor next year but said he would like to seek the presidency down the road. ists called a gen- eral strike in soli- darity with de- tainees held by Israel. A key sticking point in the Israel-PLO peace talks is the fate of5,000 Pal- estinians in Is- raeli jails. As schools let out Wednesday, a group of stu- dents pelted an Israeli police van we come to the conclusion that threI no peace, I hink our young OOPIO Win rght -Ghassan Shakaa Mayw of Nablus, West Bank signs that life in Nablus, the West Bank's largest city with 125,000 people, has changed for the better since the start of Israel- PLO peace talks two years ago. In the down- town battle zone, several luxury apartmentandof- fice towers in with stones. Police opened fire, killing 17-year-old Omar Ghazawi. His body was laid onto a wooden stretcher, wrapped in a Pales- tinian flag and carried through the streets. Thousands followed the funeral procession, chanting, "With our spirit, with our blood, we will redeem you, martyr." More clashes erupted in the evening near the Israeli military headquarters. Muayed Abed, a 22-year-old house painter, said he and his friends were throwing stones at soldiers when they gleaming white Jerusalem stone have gone up, a sure signal of investors' confidence in a better future. Along the main road, construction workers ignoring the general strike laid bricks and mixed cement to keep up with the peace-propelled building boom. The city now employs some 200 mu- nicipal policemen trained by Arafat's security forces in a first sign of Pales- tinian authority. However, the Israeli troops are still in the streets, and Palestinians in Nablus are getting impatient to see them go. GOP proposes high premiums in House Medicare plan WASHINGTON - With Democrats vowing a fight to the end, House Repub- licans sketched a future for Medicare yesterday that blends cost controls on doctors and hospitals with higher premi- ums for senior citizens and sweeteners to nudge them into cheaper alternatives. "No one should be forced to choose, but everyone should have the right to choose" an alternative to the 30-year-old fee-for-service coverage, House Speaker Newt Gingrich said, providing partial details of a plan intended to achieve $270 billion in savings over seven years. Democrats said the changes were de- signed to finance GOP tax cuts for the rich -not to shore up the solvency of the Medicare system, as Republicans contended. "We may lose, but we're goingtogo down fighting," vowed House Minority Leader Dick Gephardt(D-Mo). To underscore their determination to resist, Democrats vowed to hold a hear- ing today on the lawn outside the Capitol to compete with the formal session held indoors by Republicans. The House Commerce Committeewas expected to finish work on the Medicaid bill today. It would cut the program's growth rate in halfand is intended to save $182 billion over seven years by ending federal rules forhealth care programs and giving block grants to states. Lions killed after escaping compound LAVA HOT SPRINGS, Idaho - Hunters yesterday killed 15 lions whose escape from achickenwire-enclosedgame compound for lions, tigers and crossbred "ligers" forced parents to keep their chil- dren indoors. Authorities said they didn't think any more of the big cats were on the loose. The animals escaped Wednesday night from the private Ligertown Game Farm Inc. in rural southeastern Idaho, prompt. ing officials to call parents early yester- day and warn them not to send their children to school. Ligertown owners Robert Fieber and Dotti Martin were treated for minor inju- ries at a hospital Wednesday after tty. were attacked by at least one of the cats.
