The Arab States. and. more ominously. various terrorist groups. concerned that the influx of Soviet Jews into Israel will help Israel to win the battle of demographics against the Palestinians have threatened retaliation against states that allow charter flights to carry Soviet Jews to Israel. In reaction. the Soviet Union has slowed negotiations with Israel over such direct flights and Hungary temporarily halted them outright. Poland. however. undaunted by these threats. has reaffirmed its willingness to allow charter flights to carry Soviet Jewish refugees to Israel. Mr. President.
