Protests in Europe.  Reservists.  Critics of Gorbachev.  Human (escudo?)

Protests in Europe.  Several demonstrations hostile to the intervention
ordered by Premier Sharon against Arafat's headquarters in Ramallah took
place yesterday in Europe.  In France, there were demonstrations in Paris,
Strasbourg, Lyons, Burdeos, Marseilles and other places.  Several thousand
persons went out into German public squares in Berlin, Hanover, Munich,
Dusseldorf, Stuttgart and other cities, while in Greece, demonstrators
protested at the Israel embassy in Athens.  In Oslo and Estocolmo hundreds
of youths stormed into stores and supermarkets and destroyed and threw out
Israeli products.

Reservists.  The Israeli deployment of 20,000 reservists to fight in the
occupied territories collided with the discontent each time of groups of
youths who refused to fight Nine of these rebel reservists -- who for
ideological reasons refused to participate in the repression of the
Palestinians -- were detained yesterday for refusing to take part in the
exercise.

Critics of Gorbachev.  The errors  of former north American President Bill
Clinton were among the causes of the present recrudescence of the
Israel-Palestine conflict, according to Mikhail Gorbachev.  The former
soviet leader observed that there can be no winners in the conflict, and
imputed to Clinton the "grave error" of having tried to resolve it during
his tenure solely through the diplomatic intervention of the United States,
leaving out Russia, the European Union, and the (rabe?) world.

Escudo humano.
Around 100 pacifists participating in the march Action for Peace, which
arrived yesterday in Beln, spent the night in the refugee camp at Deisheih,
considered one of the most probable targets of Israeli reprisals, as this
was the home of the 18 year old kamikaze
who made the last suicidal attempt in Jerusalem.  "We want to dissuade the
Israeli army from eventually bombing the refugee camp," explained the leader
of the organization No Global de Campania(?) which organized the pacifist
group.
