F & B PLUMBING

Rabbi Khadouri said Zionism
was an "imperialist political move-
ment worse than Nazism." The
Jews in Iraq, he told Al Ubsu
Arabi, live "a million times better
than do Iraqi Jews in Israel." He
said he has a son in the U.S. and
another in Britain. both of whom
are against. Zionism and imperial-
ism.
Meanwhile, the Federation of
Jewish Communities of Yugoslavia
has appealed to international bod-
ies to act immediately to preserve
the basic human rights of Iraqi
Jews and other Iraqis persecuted
by the Baghdad regime.
The resolution was the second
of its kind adopted by the Belgrade
group since the first executions of
Jews and others in Iraq as alleged
spies last January. It frotested
the most recent executions in
which no Jews were involved but
urged that Iraqi Jews he given the
right to leave that country if they
so desire.
(The president of the Board of
Deputies of British Jews, Alder-
man Michael Fidler, will go to
Belgrade Oct. 6 to attend celebra-
tions marking the 50th anniversary
of the Federation of Jewish com-
munities there. Fidler was invited
by Dr. Ladoslav Kadelburg, fed-
eration chairman).
