Jews Left 'New Left'
Because of Israel
NEW YORK (JTA)—Many of
the American Jews who have de-
fected from the "New Left"
movement have done so as a re-
sult of the Six-Day War, accord-
ing to an author and research
analyst for the American Jewish
Committee.
Mrs. Lucy Dawidowicz, lectur-
ing at Yeshiva University's school
of religious education, pointed out
that many anti-war, pro-civil
rights American Jews had be-
come disenchanted with the New
Left and militant Negro organiza-
tions either because of their silence
or, as in the case of the Student
Non-Violent Coordinating Commit-
tee (SNCC), outright hostility to-
ward Israel, during and after the
war.
She compared Jewish reaction
to the "New Left" to the split in
the Second Socialist International
at the outbreak of World War I,
during which time many dissi-
dents abandoned the organiza-
tion because of their views toward
the war and involvement of the
United States in it.
"Similarly," she said, "the be-
ginning of the Six-Day War brought
forth a wave of support from Jew-
ish New Left people who oppose
the Vietnam War, uniting them be-
hind Israel. When other elements
of the New Left sided with the
Arabs, the movement lost many
of its Jewish members."
