U.S. Issues a Warning
1989
Overview
United States officials said, meanwhile, that although the Administration had been ''caught by surprise'' by the kidnapping and was ''concerned'' about the implications of the action -especially if it stirs further violence in the Middle East - there was no sense of anger at the Israelis. ''It is outrageous and uncivilized that he should have been taken hostage in the first place,'' Ms. [Margaret D. Tutwiler] said of Colonel [William R. Higgins]. ''It is equally outrageous to threaten to kill him.'' Administration officials indicated that the United States, in speaking to the Israelis, had sought to get ''as much information as we can about details of what they did and why they did it,'' as well as what Sheik Obeid may have told the Israelis. One Israeli source said that both the United States Embassy and American military officials were briefed by the Israelis on Friday about the kidnapping.
