United Nations Security Council members push a draft condemning Israeli raids into Lebanon while facing potential vetoes by the United States China and the Soviet Union. Britain and France draft language linking Israeli attacks and Palestinian guerrilla actions with Arab states. US envoy Scali insists acts of terrorism by Arab guerrillas be condemned too, while China and the Soviet Union threaten to veto a balanced text.
