U.S. Opposes Tampering With
Resolution 242, Loopholes Exist
Israel Says U.S. Criticism Is 'Unjustified'
By Joseph Polakoff
WASHINGTON, (JTA) -
The United States Aug. 16
appeared to close the door
tightly against any "tamper¬
ing" vfith United Nations Se¬
curity Council Resolution
242. However, cracks in the
asserted U.S. opposition to
any change in it or to it con:
tinued to,exist — cracks that
could be widened under suit¬
able circumstances.
"We are basically opposed
to altering or amending
242," State Department
spokesman Hodding Carter
said. He was responding to
questions stemming from a
reported French govern-
mentmove and Arab sugges¬
tions to establish the Pales¬
tine Liberation Organization
as a party- to negotiations in
Mideast peace talks by.act-
tion of the Security Council.
Carter called 242 a "mat¬
ter carefully wrought" and
"to try to amend that would
needlessly complicate" the
political process. It is
"something that cannot be
tampered with," he said.
When a reporter suggested
that possibly a new resolu¬
tion would be offered that
would embrace all of -242 but
add the idea of a "Palestine
homeland," the spokesman
replied that "any attempt to
alter this fundamentally, to
do what you're suggesting, is
something we would op¬
pose." The discussion ended
after Carter said, "basically
we are opposed to trying to
remove or alter what has
been the framework docu¬
ment for the negotiations."
Much of the feeling that
the U.S. position is not as air¬
tight as it now appears is

JERUSALEM, Aug. 21
(JTA) — Israel rejected to¬
day as "unjustified"
criticism by the United'
States of the decision by the
government of Premier Me¬
nachem Begin to establish
three new settlements on the
West Bank:' In a statement
issued following the weekly
Cabinet meeting, the govern¬
ment denied the assertion by
Jhe State Department last
Thursday that the move cre¬
ated "obstacles io'construc¬
tive negotiations.
"The government"of Israel
expresses regret at the un¬
justified remarks made in
the name of the U.S. govern¬
ment byjhe State Depart¬
ment spokesman concerning
the carrying out of an Israeli
government decision
adopted on April 19,1977 (by
the former Rabin govern¬
ment), relating to the estab¬
lishment of ' three- settle¬
ments in Judea and Samar¬
ia," the Cabinet statement
said. f ^ .„.;_,. _ .-,..,
T ' The government of Israel'- .
cannot accept trie assertion
that Jewish settlement in the
Land of Israel is regarded as
illegal. The government of
Israel reaffirms and states
that settlement- is not an ob-'
stacle to peace and will be no
obstacle whatever in any ne¬
gotiations for peac'e
treaties." Cabinet Secretary
Arye Naor refused to answer
any questions- by reporters
after reading them the state¬
ment.
The State Department last
week not only criticized the
establishment of the new set¬
tlements but also Israel's de:
cision to extend equal serv¬
ices to the West Bank and the
Gaza Strip. In this connec¬
tion the State Department
expressed "regret" that
-Naor; when announcing the
equalization decision, said
that "Israel cannot annex
the land of Israel for the peo¬
ple of Israel since it already
belongs to them."
In Washington, August 22.
the State Department had no
comment on the Israel Cabi¬
net statement. "Our state¬
ment of last week speaks for
itself." a Department
spokesman said. "We have
nothing to add to it." But the
spokesman did add: "As the
President and other spokes¬
men have noted in the past.
we do not believe that the •
long-standing close and
friendly relationship- be¬
tween the United States and
Israel are affected by dis¬
agreements of this type."
The White House said on
August 19 that the U.S. and
Israel are not on a "collision
course" and that the Israel-
U.S. discussions about the
West   Bank should not  be
seen as destroying their rela¬
tionship. Presidential news
secretary Jody. Powell, who
made the statement in re¬
sponse to reporter's ques¬
tions about the consequences
ol the discord over the new
settlements and the equali¬
zation policy, said "we ex¬
pressed through diplomatic
channels our concern,
namely about recent steps in
the West Bank."

BONN, (JTA) - Herbert
Kappler, the 70-year-old for¬
mer Rome gestapo chief who
was serving a life sentence
for ordering the shooting of
335 Italians and Jews is now
in West Germany following
his escape from a Rome Mil¬
itary Hospital. This was con¬
firmed Aug. 17 by the state
prosecutor for the North
German district of Luene-
burg where Kappler is now
hiding.
The prosecutor said that
although Kappler had served
30' years — the maximum
sentence in Germany for any
crime — it would still be nec¬
essary for the German state
to charge him for themurder
of 335 Italians. But the cen¬
tral agency for dealing with
Nazi war crimes said that
since Kappler had been
jajled for.,30,years, he could
not be rejailed.
" Most observers see this as
a technicality, since Kap¬
pler. who is reportedly suf¬
fering from intestinal cancer
and weighs less than 100
pounds, would be able to de¬
lay a new trial indefinitely
on grounds of.itl health.
Bonn government sources
confirmed that special se¬
curity measures have been
taken to protect both Kap¬
pler and his wife, Anneliese.
Though no reasons were
given, Bonn obviously fears
the political repercussions of.
■ any attempt to kill or abduct
the escapee or his wife. An
attempt was made to kill
Mrs. Kappler a year ago.
Though the state prosecutor
did not disclose' Ka/ppler's
" exact whereabouts, he is be¬
lieved to be' staying at his
wife's home in nearby Sol-
tau.
Meanwhile, a major, politi¬
cal row is brewing between
West • Germany  and  Italy
over Kappler. A meeting
planned between Chancellor
Helmut Schmidt and Italian
Premier Giuilio Andreotti in
Verona to discuss economic
issues has been postponed at
Rome's request to a "more
suitable time,". Bonn govern¬
ment sources said Aug. 17.
Bonn government sources
said a request for Kappler's
extradition issued by Andre¬
otti has not been received
here and they point out that
with extradition of Germans
from their home country ex¬
pressly prohibited by the
German Constitution — no
matter what crime they
have committed — Bonn's
hands are tied.
Meanwhile in Rome, about
250 Jews and non-Jews,
many of whom were rela¬
tives of the 335 victims who
were shot in 1941 on Kap-;
pier's order in reprisal for a
partisan attack or who had
