ITALIAN JUDICIAL AUTHORITIES HAVE REQUESTED THE UNITED STATES TO MAKE A DEMARCHE TO SWITZERLAND TO HOLD AL ATAT, THE LEBANESE ARRESTED IN ZURICH AIR- PORT NOVEMBER 18 WHILE BRINGING EXPLOSIVES TO ROME FOR A PRESUMED ATTACK ON OUR EMBASSY. 4. THESE ITALIAN OFFICIALS HAVE LEARNED THAT SWITZER- LAND WILL SCHEDULE AL ATAT'S TRIAL IN A FEW DAYS AND WILL PROBABLY SENTENCE HIM QUICKLY TO LESS THAN 18 MONTHS IN PRISON, AND THEN EXPEL HIM IMMEDIATELY. - 5. THE INVESTIGATING MAGISTRATE (STRICTLY PROTECT) IN CHARGE OF THE CASE OF THE SEVEN MIDDLE EASTERNERS ARRESTED IN ITALY IN CONNECTION WITH THE PRESUMED ATTACK ON THE EMBASSY TOLD US THAT HE HAS COMPLETED THE REQUESTS FOR PROVISIONAL ARREST AND EXTRADITION OF AL ATAT, BUT DOES NOT EXPECT HIS DOCUMENTATION TO SENSITIVE DECLASSIFIED IN PART NLRR CRST BY SSW NARA DATE 7/13/17 No Objection to Declassification in Part 2013/12/06 NLR-767-190-8-15-6 No Objection to Declassification in Part 2013/12/06 : NLR-767-190-8-15-6 41 SENSITIVE PAGE 1 787 SITUATION LISTING DATE 04/10/85//100 SITUATION: TERRORIST SUBJECT CATAGORY: FILE MESSAGE / ANNOTATION: BE OFFICIALY RECEIVED BY SWISS AUTHORITIES FOR FIVE OR SIX DAYS.

ACTION REQUESTED WE BELIEVE IT IMPORTANT THAT AL ATAT BE HELD UNDER ARREST AT LEAST UNTIL WE UNDERSTAND BETTER THE NATURE OF THE ORGANIZATION THAT IS BEHIND THE PLANNED ATTACK ON THIS EMBASSY. IF THE DEPARTMENT AGREES, AND AS APPROPRIATE, WE SUGGEST THAT EMBASSY BERN BE INSTRUCTED TO INFORM THE SWISS GOVERNMENT OF THE U.S. GOVERNMENT'S SERIOUS INTEREST IN AL ATAT, THAT THE SWISS BE QUERIED OFFICIALLY AS TO THEIR INTENTIONS TOWARD HIM, AND THAT APPROPRIATE LANGUAGE BE USED IF ITALIAN SUSPICIONS APPEAR FOUNDED.

S - ENTIRE TEXT. 2. CHARGE MET WITH QUAI SECGEN GUTMANN EVENING OF JANUARY 18 TO CARRY OUT REFTEL INSTRUCTION. DRAWING FULLY ON REFTEL TALKING POINTS, CHARGE SAID HE RECOGNIZED THAT FRENCH RELATIONS WITH IRAN WERE ALMOST AS BAD AS OURS, BUT THAT OUR EFFORT WAS DESIGNED TO SHOW THE IRANIANS THAT A BROAD SPECTRUM OF COUNTRIES WERE AWARE OF AND INDIGNANT ABOUT IRANIAN USE OF TERRORISM. WE THOUGHT THAT PARALLEL DEMARCHES BY A NUMBER OF COUNTRIES MIGHT HAVE AN INFLUENCE ON IRANIAN LEADERS. 3. GUTMANN WAS IMMEDIATELY SYMPATHETIC AND THOUGHT THROUGH WITH CHARGE THE VARIOUS OPTIONS AVAILABLE FOR ACTION. HE NOTED THAT THE FRENCH WERE ESPECIALLY CONCERNED BECAUSE OF THE POSSIBLE RELATIONSHIP WITH THE ASSASSINATIONS OF THEIR OBSERVERS IN BEIRUT. AT THE SAME TIME, HE STATED FRANKLY THAT THE FRENCH FELT PARTICULARLY EXPOSED BECAUSE OF THEIR OBSERVERS, WHO WERE SITTING DUCKS, THEIR EMBASSY IN TEHRAN WHILE THEY ARE OPENLY SUPPORTING IRAQ, AND THEIR UNIFIL CONTINGENT. HE SAID THE FRENCH CURRENTLY HAD SEVERAL HYPOTHESES REGARDING WHO WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DEATHS OF THEIR OBSERVERS, BUT WERE NOT YET COMPLETELY CONVINCED THAT IT WAS IRAN.

WITH REGARD TO POSSIBLE ACTIONS, GUTMANN SAID THE KEY WAS TO GET INTO THE RIGHT CHANNEL AND TO GET TO THE RIGHT IRANIAN OFFICIALS. HE DOUBTED THAT EITHER CALLING IN THE IRANIAN CHARGE IN PARIS OR SENDING THE FRENCH CHARGE IN TEHRAN TO CALL AT THE IRANIAN FOREIGN MINISTRY WOULD HAVE MUCH EFFECT. HE SAID HE WOULD DISCUSS WITH FONMIN DUMAS WHAT OTHER CHANNELS MIGHT BE AVAILABLE FOR A MORE MEANINGFUL DEMARCHE. DUMAS, WHO WAS DUE TO RETURN TO PARIS LATE ON JANUARY 18, IS MORE FAMILIAR WITH THE INFORMAL CHANNELS WHICH HAVE BEEN USED BY MITTERRAND TO CONTACT THE IRANIAN LEADERSHIP. 5. MEANWHILE, GUTMANN HAD TWO SUGGESTIONS: (1) HE THOUGHT OUR EFFORT WOULD HAVE MORE CHANCE OF INFLUENCING THE IRANIAN LEADERSHIP IF MORE ISLAMIC COUNTRIES WERE INVOLVED. HE URGED US TO APPROACH AS MANY ISLAMIC COUNTRIES AS WE FELT WE COULD. HE EVEN SUGGESTED APPROACHING SYRIA, THOUGH HE RECOGNIZED THIS MIGHT NOT BE EASY FOR US. CHARGE NOTED THAT WE STRONGLY SUSPECTED SYRIAN COOPERATION WITH IRANIAN TERRORISM IN LEBANON. IN REPLY, GUTMANN SAID THIS WAS NOT IMPORTANT. ISLAMIC JIHAD IS NOT A FIRM ORGANIZATION, HE SAID, BUT A LOOSE, SHIFTING, NEBULOUS ASSOCIATION OF FANATICS WITH SOME WELL-PLACED SUPPORTERS. A DEMARCHE TO SYRIA COULD THUS HAVE SOME EFFECT EVEN IF (AS HE ALSO ASSUMED) SOME SYRIAN OFFICIALS WERE SYMPATHETIC TO THE JIHAD. (2) GUTMANN ALSO NOTED THT THE FRENCH HAD BEEN RELIABLY INFORMED THAT, ALTHOUGH THE IRANIANS WERE NOT IMPRESSED BY DEMARCHES FROM INDIVIDUAL EUROPEAN COUNTRIES, DEMARCHES FROM THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITY DID APPEAR TO IMPRESS THEM, SINCE THE TEN REPRESENTED A LARGE ENTITY WITH WHAT THE IRANIANS SAW AS CONSIDERABLE INTERNATIONAL INFLUENCE. GUTMANN THEREFORE URGED US TO APPROACH THE EC PRESIDENCY TO REQUEST AN EC DEMARCHE TO IRAN. CHARGE NOTED THAT WE WERE REQUESTING ACTION FROM THE ITALIANS ANYWAY, AND THAT IT SHOULD BE FAIRLY EASY TO REQUEST AN EC DEMARCHE AT THE SAME TIME. - 6.
