Death threats force politicians
out of Salvadorian elections
United Press International
SAN SALVADOR, El Salva
dor — Death threats mailed by
guerrillas to scores of Salvador
an political leaders and U.S. di
plomats have forced some politi
cians to drop out of the upcom
ing elections, top diplomatic
sources said Tuesday.
“An all-out effort is being
made to sabotage elections,” said
one high-ranking source who
asked to remain anonymous.
“Every important political lead
er has received written threats.
Some candidates have dropped
out.”
Threats also have been
mailed to several officials at the
U.S. Embassy, another source
close to the mission said. Embas
sy spokesmen refused to com
ment on the report.
El Salvador’s rulingjunta and
its U.S. allies hope the March 28
balloting for a constitutional
assembly will put the Central Guerrillas and their political

Libyan assassination scare

United Press International
HOUSTON — A specialist on
the Middle East says he doubts
President Reagan was a target of
Col. Moammar Khadafy’s hit
squad, but added that the Li
byan leader reaped political be
nefits at home from the assassi
nation scare.
“The hit squads do exist,”
said Dr. Monte Palmer, director
of the Middle East Studies Cen
ter at Florida State University
Monday at a seminar in
Houston.
“Think of all the publicity,”
Palmer said. “Among the Arab
youth, it made Khadafy seem
like a hero.”
Palmer, who has visited Libya
10 times in five years, wrote the
book “Political Development
and Social Change in Libya.” In
it, he described Khadafy as a
brilliant totalitarian leader who
lacks the resources in his coun
try of 2.5 million people to
attack Israel or challenge the
United States.
Although many Americans
picture Khadafy as a “wild man
screaming in the breeze,” his
fiery oratory appeals to young
Libyans, Palmer said.
Opponents of Khadafy have
been shot at 11 times but, Pal
mer said: “I don’t believe they
intended to assassinate Presi
dent Reagan.”
The Reagan administration’s
decision to remove all Amer
icans from Libya was not a good
move, Palmer said.
He said he had never spoken
to an American who was treated
poorly in Libya.
