Several thousand Israelis gathered outside the Jerusalem home of Foreign Minister Yitzhak Shamir in a peaceful protest over his call for the release of 27 Jews charged with anti-Arab attacks. Under tight police security, supporters of the anti-war Peace Now movement hoisted signs reading, “No Pardon for Terror,” and “No Package Deal.” Shamir has said that the May 20 exchange of more than 1,000 Arab terrorists for three Israeli soldiers in Lebanon should be followed by pardons for the 27 Jews.
