THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS

TEL AVIV (JTA) —

Foreign Minister Moshe
Dayan admitted that Israel
sells arms to Ethiopia to be
used in its war against
Somalia. In an interview
with Israel Radio from
Geneva; Dayan said he saw
no reason to conceal the
fact. '
The foreign minister
pointed out that Israel has a
strong interest in maintain-
ing friendly relations with
Ethiopia, a country located
along the Red Sea, the
waterway by which tankers
come to Israel. Dayan said
Israel did not send any
troops or , aircraft to
Ethiopia.
This was the first time an
Israeli offical has publicly
admitted that Israel has
supplied military aid to
Ethiopia although it has
been an open secret for 20
years.

Israel's present aid to
Ethiopia began about a
year ago when it was
asked to give such aid
by the government which
had overthrown the em-
peror in 1974. Israel ag-
reed to do so and con-
tinues the aid despite the

fact that Ethiopia now
also receives aid from the
Soviet Union and Cuba. It
was reliably learned that
'Israeli aid includes am-
munition, uniforms, first
aid equipment, tents and
other items of this kind.

Defense ministry sources
were somewhat taken
aback by Dayan's acknow-
ledgement of the fact.

THE BIG QUESTION: Do the Nazi and neo-Nazi
groups in this country constitute a danger to Jews?
The question is now being seriously discussed among
leaders of major Jiewish organizations following the ruling
of the Illinois Supreme Court granting constitutional
rights to the Nazi Party of America to march in full regalia
in Skokie, a Chicago suburb with a predominatly Jewish
population which includes about 7,000 Jews who survived
Hitler's concentration camps.

JERUSALEM (JTA) — If
Israel should withdraw to
the 1967 borders and agree
to the establishment of a
Palestine state, "a situation
would develop that would
entail the death of
thousands of Israelis," Pre-
mier Menahem Begin wrote
in a letter to a group of high
school students.
The students published
an open letter to Begin de-
manding withdrawal and
recognition of a Palestinian
state, warning that if Begin
did not do so, "their blood, as
potential victims in the next
war, would be on his hands."

J

The Nazi Party of America is a small group with a special
unit of about 30 uniformed followers available for street
demonstrations. It has chosen to march in Skokie obviously
to provoke anger and physical confrontation there on the
part of the Holocaust survivors to receive nationwide pub-
licity in the American press, radio and television. '

The Nazi Party of America is not the only Nazi group in .
this country. There are 13 such groups. The possibility
exists now•that some of these groups operating in various
parts of the country may be inspired to emulate the exam-
ple of the NPA following the Illinois ruling. A precedent
has been created legitimizing anti-Jewish — and inciden-
tally, also anti-black = demonstrations. •
NAZI GROUPS IN U.S.: Jewish organizations standing
guard against anti-Semitism in this country have hitherto
considered the Nazi and neo-Nazi groups merely as a nui-
sance. The total membership of all-the 13 groups — each of
them has its own "leader" and is functioning independently
— is estimated to be not more than 2,000.

The largest among the Nazi groups is the National
Socialist White People's Party.
There is a National Socialist Movement group in Cincin-
nati, possibly the parent group of Detroit's Nazi bookstore,
founded by a former NSWPP stormtrooper, Robert Bran-
nen; a White Power Movement, founded in West Virginia
by George Dietz, the son of a Nazi SS leader in Germany;
and a number of other neo-Nazi organizations in various
parts of the country.
JEWISH VIEWS: Jewish leadership is divided on thy
question of Jewish confrontations with Nazi demonstri ‘
tions. Some think that such confrontations can only be of
help to the Anierican Nazis by widely increasing attention
to them from the media which has greatly inflated public
awareness of the American Nazi Party.
Expression to this feeling was given by speakers at the
four-day annual plenary session of the National Jewish
Community Relations Advisory Council which took place
just on the week when the Illinois Supreme Court issued its
ruling in favor of the Nazi Party of America.
An American Jewish Committee study of the Nazi
groups in this country comes to the conclusion that there is
no danger of American Nazism having the capacity to en-
gulf Americans. Rather the concern should be with its
harmful effects on emotionally unstable or zealous adhe-
rents who act to build up hatreds.
It is, however, the view of the AJCommittee that Ameri-
can Jews cannot ignore or look with equanimity on a
movement which reviles them and exhorts its followers to
assay - another attempt at a "final solution . "
