...bombing of the U.S. embassy in Beirut last week killed at least 57 people, 17 of them Americans, and wounded some 100; though the death toll is likely to rise as the search goes on, the assault already ranks as the bloodiest terrorist attack ever against a U.S. diplomatic mission. Ten minutes after the blast, an anonymous caller warned Agence France-Presse that the strike was "part of the Iranian revolution's campaign against imperialist targets throughout the world." The man identified himself as a member of the Islamic Jihad Organization, an obscure pro-Iranian group made...

These activities are consistent with the PLO strategy of inciting anti-Jewish sentiment throughout the world...
Other Italian investigations promised additional proof of Bulgaria's nefarious activities. Luigi Scricciolo, 34, a former labor official arrested in February 1982 on charges of spying for Bulgaria and aiding the terrorist Red Brigades, has identified as one of his contacts Todor Aivazov, one of the other Bulgarians implicated by Agca in the papal plot. Agca has also claimed that in January 1981 he and Antonov talked about killing Polish Solidarity Leader Lech Walesa, perhaps by planting a bomb in his car or hotel room. An Italian magistrate investigating the allegation has already officially warned Antonov and six others...
