The recent incident of urban terrorism in Washington, D.C. is a dilemma-provoking situation. The dilemma, of course, is how to protect our President when Mr. Carter is actively making him self available to the public—a public recently plagued by hostage-taking. The only reasonably safe way to insure his safety seems to be for him to remain secluded from the public. The incident in the Capital seemed to have been one of previous planning (the hostage-taking and building occupation ) occurred in too rapid succession to be otherwise). Therefore, it is entirely conceivable that a well-executed plot in broad daylight could result in the kidnapping and ransoming of our top public official—a precedent we do not need to have set. The terrorists’ exorbitant demands were not met; perhaps this can be explained in that the hostages were not quite as crucially important to the nation’s secrutiy. But what if President Carter was kidnapped? Would any and all demands be immediately met? Or, would it never happen at all? The thought is worth .1*01 H®l IRiei) ■» IK Wt> THE OR WTA1T« WKeN m consideration. Perhaps another thought worth at least some consideration is Rewwrmi-amoR vd then ■**>«»& a* anpw 'atAu,w>!l>n«Kr! how the judicial system is to treat this instance of sectarian ur ban terrorism. Are the alleged terrorists to be held up as exam ples to other would-be terrorists, with capital punishment being the justice meted out (if found guilty), or are those individuals to be held up as one more disgusting example of the perverted form of martyrism that is plaguing America. And yet, but one more consideration is how will terror-filled regimes on other continents react to the treatment of Washington, D.C.’s terrorists, even after killing one person. Idi Amin could be seen to view the manner as such: Surely he can order the killing of whatever Americans he can find in Uganda if reprisals against said deeds are of such a mild nature. Besides, the terrorists' reasoning when hostage-taking seems to be that the hostages themselves have inherited all of whatd$er guilt there is. And with the way terrorists are treated, this could very well be so.
