Rebels Take Over Hospital, Church in

LAMITAN, Philippines (Reuters) - Muslim rebels trying to
shake off pursuing Philippine troops on a southern
island took over a church and a hospital in a small town
on Saturday and said they held 200 hostages, including
doctors, patients and a priest.

Mortar and gunfire ripped through the town of Lamitan
on Basilan island through the night. At least one body
could be seen on the street in the morning and soldiers
slowly advanced through the town to the sound of
sporadic gunfire.

At a makeshift hospital in the town, more than a dozen
soldiers were being treated, although some had what
seemed to be mortal head and body injuries.

A spokesman for the Abu Sayyaf guerrillas said in a
telephone call to a local radio station that the group
controlled a church in Lamitan and its main hospital.

"We are part of an Abu Sayyaf suicide squad,"
spokesman Abu Sulaiman told the radio. "Now we have
200 more hostages. If you do not stop the military
action, we will execute the hostages."


Military officials were not immediately available for
comment.

Local officials in Lamitan, a bustling market town of
over 100,000 people, mostly Christians, said the rebels
had taken over the St. Peters Church and an adjacent
hospital. Guerrilla snipers were in the belfry and on the
roof of the hospital, they said.

They said at least three people were killed in fighting
overnight, including two soldiers and one rebel.

Fighting between the rebels and the soldiers started on
Friday morning elsewhere on Basilan. The rebel group
was being pursued after it kidnapped 20 hostages,
including three Americans, from an upscale island
resort last Sunday.

At least 14 people, including 12 rebels and two soldiers,
were killed in Friday's fighting, radio reports and
military officials said. Dozens were wounded.

There was no word on where the 20 hostages were. But
one of them appealed on local radio for an end to the
military assault, saying that the hostages lives are in
danger.

Lamitan is the largest town on Basilan after the local
capital Isabela. It lies slightly inland on the northern
coast of Basilan but is connected to the sea by an
estuary.

Basilan itself is a mountainous, heavily forested island
some 550 miles south of Manila. Its jungle-clad interior
hills have long provided base camps for the Abu Sayyaf,
which claims to be fighting for an independent Muslim
homeland but appears to concentrate on kidnap for
ransom.

What scares me the most about these people, and should scare you as well, is their fanaticism. There have been many terrorist organizations throughout history, but none seem to have as many religious ties or to be as prolific as the Muslims.

Israelis Attack Mosque After Tel Aviv Bombing

By Deborah Camiel

TEL AVIV (Reuters) - Hundreds of Israelis chanting ``Death to Arabs'' and hurling stones attacked a mosque on Saturday across the street from a nightclub where a Palestinian
suicide bomber killed himself and 17 others the night before.

At least 17 people were wounded in the confrontation outside the Hassan Bek mosque as Israeli security forces tried to disperse the crowd. Dark smoke wafted over the site as
water cannons hosed down a car set ablaze by protesters.

Police blocked the crowd from entering the mosque and helped about 30 Muslims who had become targets of the crowd's anger after gathering for prayers to leave.

``They deserve it. Look what they did to us,'' an Israeli woman said standing outside the mosque, a landmark that marks an invisible border between biblical Jaffa, with its large
Muslim community, and modern Tel Aviv, Israel's mostly Jewish business capital.

``The Arabs in there are just like the Arabs who attacked the Jews over there (in the nightclub),'' the woman said.

The crowd smashed kerbstones for ammunition and cheered whenever a chunk of concrete broke one of the mosque's windows.

Arabs inside the mosque threw rocks back at the attackers, some of whom tried to plant Israeli flags at its entrance.

``It's a storm of feeling. I have nothing against the Arabs but I can tell you that if this (bomb attack) happened in Gaza they would be doing the same and worse,'' said a snack
vendor, referring to the Gaza Strip, most of which is under Palestinian control.

Israeli officials called on civilians not to take the law into their own hands and cabinet minister Danny Naveh branded the actions of protesters ``thuggery that has no place in
our country.''

Police said they made seven arrests.

Guests on the terrace of a pool at an adjacent luxury hotel watched the scene from sun loungers until security men ordered them into the lobby.

Shirtless young men and women in skimpy beach apparel drifted over from the seashore to watch the spectacle.

The violence underscored the tense relations between Israeli Jews and Arabs since a Palestinian uprising for independence erupted in the West Bank and Gaza eight months
ago.
