Zulu leader pushes for African kingdom
The Associated Press
DURBAN, South Africa — Mangosuthu Buthelezi made a fresh call yesterday for a sovereign Zulu kingdom, saying he would only end his election boycott if the demand was met.
The Zulu leader's statement appeared to be political brinkmanship in a bid to win concessions from the rival ANC as the deadline approached to register for the nation's first all-race election in April.
The African National Congress, South Africa's largest political group, is expected to win the election.
A boycott by Buthelezi's Inkatha Freedom Party and its allies, including pro-apartheid whites, would likely increase political violence that killed more than 3,000 blacks last year and could disrupt voting.
On Tuesday, Buthelezi and ANC leader Nelson Mandela met for almost eight hours and agreed to let international mediators try to resolve their differences.
At the same time, Buthelezi said his party might register for the election by tomorrow's midnight deadline. He said Inkatha would still reserve the right to boycott if its demands for Zulu autonomy were not met.
It was considered a major reversal by Butheleze, who earlier had rejected any possibility that Inkatha would take part in the vote.
"We need to separate the kingdom of Kwazulu from the rest of South Africa," Buthelezi told a Kwazulu legislative caucus.
If the April election proceeded without meeting Zulu demands for an autonomous state, then "the Kwazul government cannot be held responsible for the anger of the Zulu nation," he said.
Buthelezi and other leaders in the opposition Freedom Alliance fear the new South African constitution will allow the ANC to dominate the first post-apartheid government and trample minor rights.
Violence flares up in West Bank
The Associated Press
JERICHO, Occupied West Bank - Israeli soldiers killed two Palestinian youths yesterday as fury over the Hebron mosque massacre spread to Jericho, where the PLO plans to set up its headquarters under a peace plan with Israel.
As part of an effort to curb the bloodletting, security forces disarmed seven extremist Jewish settlers in the occupied territories and banned them from Palestinian areas.
It was a radical move for the Israelis, though unlikely to placate Palestinians demanding the removal of Jewish settlements from the territories and international protection.
Foreign Minister Shimon Peres reiterated the government's refusal to budget on the settlement issue.
But Peres, an advocate of flexibility, left the door open to further gestures. The government "is not blind" to the need to make concessions to the PLO to resume talks, he told Jewish media
representatives.
Militant Palestinians, meanwhile, called for revenge attacks for the mosque massacre. And the government put its embassies and citizens abroad on alert. Rabin's terrorism adviser, Yigal Pressler, urged Israelis with gun permits to carry their weapons at all times.
In Jericho, a normally peaceful town, trouble flared when 400 Palestinians protested Friday's massacre of Palestinian worshipers by a Jewish settler in Hebron.
Troops on rooftops opened fire at
votions, who were using slashshots.
no were using simulators.
One teen-ager was killed in the shooting and about 20 people were injured, including Saeb Erakat, head of the PLO's negotiating team, who was slightly wounded on the leg.
Chanting "Revenge! Revenge!" the teen-ager's file grabbed the body from an ambulance. They wrapped it in a Palestinian flag and carried it through the rubble-strewn streets to a cemetery for burial.
THE NEWS in brief
WASHINGTON
Commanders say U.S. may not ship missiles to South Korea for weeks
The United States is unlikely to send Patriot missiles to South Korea for at least several weeks because Seoul is worried that it would upset nuclear negotiations with North Korea, senior U.S. commanders said yesterday.
"We're holding in abeyance the deployment of those Patriots," Army Gen, Gary E. Luck, commander of U.S. forces in Korea, told the Senate Armed Services Committee.
Luck also told the committee that in the event North Korea invaded the south about 400,000 American troops would be sent to reinforce the 37,000 Americans now stationed there. And he estimated that more than 400,000 American and South Korean troops would be killed in an all-out war on the peninsula.
Luck said U.S. forces probably would have no more than 24 hours warning before an attack.
The United States and North Korea have been in a suspended state of war since the signing of an armistice that ended the three-year Korean War in July 1953.
Luck said he had recommended that Patriots be added to the American force in South Korea as a prudent defensive measure in light of heightening tensions between North Korea and Washington over inspection of the north's nuclear facilities.
But the South Koreans balked out of concern that the timing was wrong, he said.
SAN CRISTOBAL DE LAS CAS, Mexico
Peasant uprising near end
Rebel and government negotiators announced yesterday a tentative agreement to end a peasant uprising in southern Mexico.
A rebel, who didn't identify himself, read the list of demands the Zapatista National Liberation Army had brought to the talks—including calls for democratic reforms and improving the lot of poor Indians in southern Chiapas state.
Roberto Salledo, an aide to government's peace envoy Manuel Camacho Solis, read a response promising new attention in the areas of housing, education, health, and employment in the rural communities of the impoverished state.
He pledged that the government would this year
launch a large-scale program to build roads, health clinics and bring electricity to those communities that inspired the Indian revolt that began Jan. 1.
A rebel spokesman who goes by the name of Subcommandante Marcos has said nothing in the tentative accord would be accepted until it has been approved by Zapatista groups in remote, impoverished communities of the Lacandon jungle.
WASHINGTON
Court rejects Packwood
Sen. Bob Packwood's bid to keep his diaries secret was rejected by Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist yesterday, making it almost certain they will be turned over to the Senate Ethics Committee.
Packwood, R-Ore., had asked Rehnquist to block the transfer of the diaries while he appealed the committee's subpoena.
Packwood said Rehnquist's action clears the way for "government snooping" into the private lives of all Americans.
But Rehnquist said the senator's argument that the Ethics Committee's subpoena was too broad "has been seriously undermined by the evidence, presented to the district court, that his diary transcripts and tapes have been altered."
"The evidence of tampering very likely renders all of the requested diary entries relevant to that investigation," the chief justice wrote.
GREENVILLE, S.C.
BB gun sniper strikes again
A pellet gun sniper targeting cars along Interstate 85 struck again yesterday.
In 10 days, someone has shot at least 26 cars, most on a mile-long stretch of highway bordered by pine trees, a river, a sewage treatment plant and a television factory.
Deputies in camouflage suits are hiding in the trees, and spotters with binoculars are on the high ground along the highway between Charlotte, N.C., and Atlanta, which the AAA Carolinas motor club said was used by 64,000 vehicles daily.
The only injury has been to a teen-age girl hit in one eye by glass when a shot went through a van window.
The Greenville County sheriff's department has increased patrols and used unmarked cars, bloodhounds and a helicopter, but the sniper keeps escaping. The only injury has been to a teen-age girl hit in one
Authorities said there may be copycat snipers now. Most vehicles have been hit around the Mauldin Road exit on Greenville's south side.
