Because of the ongoing violence in the Middle East, no Palestinian children will be attending a camp in Maine this summer designed to promote cooperation among Israeli and Arab teen-agers. Despite the decision by the Palestinian Authority’s Education Ministry, children from Israel, Egypt, Jordan and Morocco are still slated to attend the Seeds of Peace camp. But an Israeli official said the violence could force Israel to pull its campers from the program as well.
