U.S. Says C.I.A. Believes It Is Probable Higgins Was Killed Before Monday
1989
Overview
Officials said the Israelis told the United States that the decision to kidnap the sheik was made ''some time ago'' and that the Israelis ''didn't see any other way of putting pressure on them'' to release Israeli soldiers held in Lebanon. ''We're basically asking the Israelis to keep in touch with us on what they're learning and they're doing that,'' one official said. ''We have not asked them to release Sheik Obeid.'' Mr. [Bush] was asked if it would make matters easier if Israel released the Muslim cleric whose kidnapping inflamed the hostage situation and prompted threats against the Americans held captive. He said he was weighing the situation with ''a heavy heart'' and that ''it transcends religion, it transcends alliances, it gets in to a matter that concerns that entire civilized world. So we will keep on trying.''
