Bases brace for reprisal U.S. allies criticize strike
United Press International
LONDON — Many U.S. allies in Western Europe yesterday criticized the U.S. decision to attack Libya, as security was tightened around U.S. servicemen and military installations to prevent reprisals by terrorists.
However, two key European leaders, British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher and West German Chancellor Helmut Kohl, voiced support for the U.S. action, which the United States said was in retaliation for Libyan involvement in the April 5 bombing of a West Berlin disco.
The raids on targets near Tripoli and Benghazi sparked a political storm in Britain, which allowed airfields to be used for the launching of the attacks by F-111 fighter-bombers.
In a tumultuous parliamentary debate, Thatcher defended her decision, saying it would be ridiculous to refuse the United States the right of self-defense using its own planes and pilots.
There has been unparalleled state-sponsored terrorism from Libya," she said. "If one always refuses to take any risks because of the consequences, terrorist governments will win and one can only cringe before them."
But one furious parliamentarian denounced President Reagan as Thatcher's "cretinous buddy," then stormed out of the house.
"Khadafy this morning has more friends than he had yesterday, and that's got to be wrong," Labor opposition leader Neil Kinnock told reporters.
West German leaders split over the attack. Kohl said he had seen evidence linking Libya to last week's bombing and added that "whoever continually preaches and practices violence as Khadafy has done must count on the victims defending themselves."
But Economics Minister Martin Bangman seald the strike was not an appropriate way to fight terrorism.
Reactions in the rest of Europe were mostly critical.
Mideast denounces U.S. attacks
United Press International
BEIRUT, Lebanon — Libya's friends and foes in the Middle East yesterday condemned the U.S. attack on the North African nation amid warnings the air strikes would trigger a new wave of terrorism throughout the Middle East and Europe.
A Palestinian group headed by Abu Nidal threatened to attack U.S. interests worldwide, and an unknown group called the Arab Armed Brigades vowed to kill Americans, Britons and Frenchmen.
The statement by Abu Nidal, given to news agencies in Beirut, pledged to attack U.S. interests and institutions and all forms of aggressive U.S. presence.
Abu Nidal broke away from Yasser Arafat's Palestine liberation Organization in 1974 and is thought to be
responsible for a string of terrorist attacks since the early 1970s, including the bloody hijacking of an EgyptAir plane in 1985.
Earlier, a man who claimed to be speaking on behalf of the Arab Armed Brigades called the Christian Voice of Lebanon radio station, saying, "We have decided to retaliate by kidnapping and killing all American, British and French nationals in Lebanon."
Lebanese security sources previously had not heard of the group but thought it was one of several pro-Libyan factions which have sprung up in Lebanon since the start of the Libyan-U.S. crisis.
Both Libya's friends and enemies in the Middle East condemned the raids, which U.S. officials said were in retaliation for Libyan involvement in an April 5 West Berlin bombing that killed an U.S. soldier.

Dear Friends
One of the most inspiring recent disclosures of astronomers indicates that there is a great empty space in the north in the nebula of the constellation of Orion-a heavenly cavern so gigantic that the mind of man cannot comprehend it and so brilliantly beautiful that words cannot adequately describe it.
The revelations were made possible by gigantic lenses, plus long exposures of photographic plates which in turn can be further magnified. This increases the vision of man so that he is able to peer into the depths of interstellar space and get a glimpse of the vastness of infinity itself. What has been found, correlates the words of Job..."He streichech out the north over the empty place" (Job 26:7). All astronomers agree that there is a huge opening in Orion which is perhaps more than 16,740,000,000 miles in diameter-90,000 times as wide as the diameter of the earth's orbit.
Professor Larkin of Mt. Lowe Observatory describes the magnificent photographs revealing beauty that cannot be described and luminous colors that are unlike anything on earth. The appearance is like that of light shining stars. The colors have a hue peculiar to the Orion and studded around the opening so that they appear as a pavement of starry sand. No wonder that astronomers say they feel as if they were in some almighty presence while scanning this part of the heavens.
Why is all this grandeur lavished upon one spot in the heavens? Read Revelations chapter21 beginning at verse 10 "and it is carried me away in the spirit to a great and high mountain and showed me that great city, the Holy Jerusalem, descending out of Haven from God. The chapter continues to describe the beauty and glory of that eternal city. Heb. 13:14 says, "For here have we no continuing city, but we seek one to come." The immense Beauty, and this is the exciting part...appears to be coming closer, and even astronomers who are not religious sense something spiritual in what they see. Oh, that we might be sensitive to the signs around us impelling us to keep our lamps trimmed and burning, for the Bridegroom Cometh!!!!
See & hear this unusual presentation.
