          PLO:  The Beach Action - Our Right To Oppose the Occupation

        [Reprinted without permission from "Ha'aretz", 26 June 1990 ...
                 translation from Hebrew is my responsibility]

      The PLO  declared  yesterday  that  "the  beach  action"  which  was
      undertaken  by  Abu  el-Abass'es Front, "bases itself on the natural
      right of the Palestinian people to oppose the  occupation".   In  an
      announcement  which  was  publicized  yesterday  in  Kuwait,  by the
      organization and members of the Palestine National Committee, it was
      said  that  "this  right  is defended by resolutions of the UN".  In
      parallel, an aide of Arafat and a member of the PLO directors, Haani
      el-Hassan  [sp?],  said  that the organization would be meeting Arab
      foreign ministers in two days' time in Tunis  to  decide  on  taking
      effective action against the US and Israel, and "drafting all of the
      Palestinians from all places in Palestine to drag [best  translation
      I  have...]  back  to  the  areas  which were occupied in 1948." The
      announcement which was made public in Kuwait called on Israeli Arabs
      to  aid in the "walking in upright" [hard to translate; the sense is
      "walking proud to take our land"].

      [Note that "the areas which were occupied in 1948", according to the
      PLO, include all of Israel today.]
