as possible out of administration to
minimizo academic (cuts)."
"It's time for action," Byrno said.
"We've had too much rhotoric. I have
the feeling that too many people are
willing to just lay down. The animal is

However, Fidanque warned
that questioning could increase
if acts of terrorism related to
the Persian Gulf War begin in
this country.
"If there are acts of terrorism
in this country, the level of par
anoia will rise, and there will
be pressure on the FBI to find
scapegoats," Fidanque said.
"That could result in criminal
investigations of those who
speak out against tho war.
"If you are contacted by a
U.S. government agency bo
very sure about what you say to
them. Ask if thorn will be ques
tions you will be required to
answer, and if so, what are
thoy."
Lane County Commissioner
Jack Roberts spoke about the
anti-discrimination resolution
that was recently passed unani
mously by all five commission
ers.
"Lano County is now clearly
on record as ixhng opposed to
harassment and intimidation
based on race, religion or eth
nic origin," he said.
"It is important for people to
remember that we are at war
with an Arab country, but we
arc not at war with Arab jmio
ple,” he added.
Roberts also said ho wants to
hear about any instances of ha
rassment or intimidation.
"I want to know about it It
you run into those kinds of
problems, because I think as a
community, we're bettor than
that.”
Dr. Munir Katul, who was
born in Israel and raised in Leb
anon. spoke about the concerns
that come with being a native
of tho Middle East during this
time.
"Timos of war are always dif
ficult, and for Arabs now it is
especially difficult,” said Dr.
Munir Katul, who was born in
Israel and raised in Lebanon.
"Wo all share a sense of isola
tion and distance from what is
happening (in tho Middle East).
“There is a sense of helpless
ness. watching news that is
censored and not knowing
what to believe. I search for
some balance. I try to be aware,
but I don't let it immobilize
me."
Katul notod that he has
learned the hard way not to on
gugo in political discussions
with those who do not share
his viewpoint.
"This is not tho tlmo to try
and convince people of what’s
happening." ho said. “You can
try it, but tho price may bo
high.”
