4 Friday, October 13, 2000 Israeli Rockets Slam Arafat ; s Compound The Associated Press GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip - In a day of incendiary violence that left Mideast peacemaking in ashes, Israeli helicopters rocketed Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat’s compound Thursday in retalia tion for the mutilation of three Israeli sol diers by a mob of enraged Palestinians. Late Thursday, Arafat spoke in a conference call with President Clinton and Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak, Arafat’s office said. The day began with U.N. Secretary- TELLER Are you a people person?

But it degenerated swiftly, with both sides unleashing pent-up rage. The Palestinians inflicted the worst losses yet on Israeli troops, while Israel’s combat helicopters staged unprece dented attacks on high-profile Palestinian targets and tanks rumbled to the outskirts of Palestinian cities. One Israeli rocket struck 150 feet from Arafat’s seaside residential head quarters, with the Palestinian leader inside at the time, his aides said. “This is a declaration of war -a crazy war,” said Saeb Erekat, a senior Palestinian official. Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak said Arafat “does not appear to be a partner for peace at this time.” Barak said he held Arafat indireedy responsible for the killing of the sol diers, and said Israel would hunt down those involved. He demanded that the United States publicly affix blame to Arafat for the collapse of the peace talks and the escalation of violence. Barak also renewed calls to the hawk ish opposition party Likud to join an emergency coalition. Likud has rebuffed Barak in the past, saying it would join only if he abandoned the peace talks. However, opposition leader Ariel Sharon - whose visit to a contested Jerusalem shrine two weeks ago triggered the vio lence - met with Barak Thursday. Thursday’s turmoil appeared to extinguish hopes that Israel and the Palestinians could soon negotiate a truce and end 15 days of bloodshed that have left at least 95 people dead. MOESER From Page 1 the Board of Trustees. A search for a vice chancellor for research is still in progress. But possibly the most important issue facing Moeser is the bond package, which will go before N.C. voters in November. If the referendum passes, UNC will reap about SSOO million in benefits. The money will be used to fund capital improvements on campus that Moeser says are of critical need, particularly for scientific research. “Indeed, this is a defining moment for all of higher education in North Carolina, for the future of this state,” he said. “Our potential is limited only by inadequate physical spaces for science.” While establishing relationships with UNC students, faculty members and staff will take some time for Moeser, it did not take him long to familiarize himself with the University’s needs. “I have visited the laboratories of fac ulty who are doing cutting-edge research that has the potential to cure diseases and improve all of our lives, work that is ham pered by the physical limitations of old buildings not suited for today’s science.” And Moeser has gone one step for ward -a simple pledge that could have enormous repercussions for UNC. “My pledge to the people of North Carolina is to take that investment and triple it in terms of private support to this University through our upcoming campaign.” While in the fledgling months of his term, Moeser has impressed many who harbor high hopes that he will take Hooker’s dreams to a higher plane. “He is taking (UNC) to the next level, and I am proud of that” said Bill Roper, dean of the School of Public Health. “He shows high sensitivity to the issues con fronting us and I think he’s worthy of taking us into the 21st century.” Journalism Professor Chuck Stone served on the search committee that chose Hooker and said he sees many sim- News ilarities between the two chancellors. “If he can cany out Hooker’s vision and make it his own and find the synergy of the two visions, then I think he will do well” If Moeser pushes the momentum of the Carolina First Campaign, an effort to draw private donations from alumni, and is successful, UNC will be a major step closer to Moeser’s ultimate goal. “We have before us the potential of a new defining moment for Carolina - the possibility of being not only the first, but the best, die leading, the pre-eminent pub lic university in America,” he said. “In that spirit, I accept the challenge of lead ing this great University into anew age.” The University Editor can be reached at udesk@unc.edu.
