American protection for ships from Kuwait, an Arab noncombatant ally of Iraq.

‘NEED T NEW LOOK’

“That plan may still make sense but at the least, in light

of Sunday’s tragedy, we need to take a new look,” Dole said.

“Are we becoming a silent party to the Iran-Iraq war?”

Democratic Rep ive Tom Lantos, chair-

man oif the House foreign affairs subcomittee on Europe and

the Middle East. Other lawmakers echoed this concern, saying President Ronald Reagan may be preparing to send U.S. forces into a

war zone without the consent of Congress.

“If the Kuwaiti plan is, in fact, implemented, we will be sending our young people to within 50 miles (80 kilometres) of the war zone,” said Democratic Senator Jim Sasser. “And

for what?”

“We do not want the Soviet Union to obtain a stratgegic position from which it could threaten vital free-world interests in the region,” Murphy said.
