DAVAR WASHINGTON CORRESPONDENT AMIR OREN COMMENTS THAT ALTHOUGH THEY ARE DIFFICULT AND COMPLEX, SOME OF THE TASKS INVOLVED IN FREEING THE HOSTAGES IN BEIRUT SEEM "MUCH SIMPLER THAN THE PROBLEMS WHICH FOILED THE PLANNING OF THE IRANIAN RESC UE OPERATION." OREN SAYS THAT "FOR THE SAKE OF THE AMERICAN IMAGE IN THE ARAB COUNTRIES, REAGAN WILL PROBABLY PREFER ISRAELI ASSISTANCE IN SUCH AN OPERATION TO REMAIN UNNOTICED. BUT AT A TIME WHEN THERE IS GROWING PUBLIC RESENTMENT IN THE U.S. OVER ITS INSISTENCE ON AN EXPLICIT AMERICAN DEMAND FOR THE RELEASE OF THE PRISONERS, IT IS IMPORTANT FOR ISRAEL TO MAKE IT PUBLIC THAT IN THE WAKE OF A SIMILAR DEMARCHE THE ISRAELI AIR FORCE DID NOT ATTACK SHI'ITE BASES IN THE BEKA'A VALLEY OF LEBANON, WHERE OTHER AMERICAN HOSTAGES WERE BEING HELD." VIII. MAARIV COMMENTS: "AMERICA IS NOT ASKING ISRAEL TO RELEASE THE 700 SHIITES BROUGHT FROM SOUTH LEBANON TO ATLIT. IT IS, HOWEVER, GIVING US A GENTLE REMINDER THAT IN AMERICAN EYES, THE TRANSFER OF THESE PRISONERS TO ISRAEL WAS A BREACH OF INTERNATIONAL LAW." 2. TABA. I.

LIKUD SOURCES SAID THAT TABA WAS PART OF AN UNACCEPTABLE COMPREHESIVE MOVE TOWARDS NEGOTIATIONS ON THE FUTURE OF THE TERRITORIES, ISRAEL RADIO REPORTS.
