Jews Quit Jesse Jackson's Entourage

30%-45% off

JERUSALEM (JTA) —
Five Jews, who have been
on the Jackson mission to
the Mideast, quit the dele-
gation Wednesday, protest-
ing Jesse Jackson's be-
havior on the tour.
The five were staffers of
the biweekly "Israel To-
day," led by editor Philip
Blazer. Although Jackson
insisted Wednesday that
none of these persons were
actually on the delegation,
the Jews said they were in-
strumental in organizing

the trip, and had. been in
close ties with Jackson for
years.
"There is a real feeling of
discomfort now in relations
with Jackson," Blazer was
quoted to say, "where there
wasn't any before."
Another person,
Raymond Mallel of Los
Angeles, an executive
member of the World
Sephardi Federation,
said he left the Jackson
group because the black
minister has no interest
whatever in the Mideast
situation, but solely in
exploiting it to advance
his own political career
in the U.S.
Although Blazer said he
had cooperated with
Jackson since April 1976,
during the anti-Nazi activi-
ties in Skokie, Ill., Jackson
said he hardly knew Blazer.
Mallel's interest in the
visit was to help arrange a
meeting between Jackson
and representatives of the
World Organization of Jews
from Arab Countries, "in
order that he would hear
and meet those expelled by
Arab countries and see how
Israel has rehabilitated so
many refugees despite the
state of siege it was in."
• The rift was the climax of
a series of incidents in
which Jackson angered Is-
raeli public opinion. Israelis
who originally supported a
meeting between Prime
Minister Begin and Jackson
are now under the impres-
sion that Jackson had made
up his mind about the PLO
before he came to Israel.
Blazer said Tuesday
that only with great diffi-
culty did he manage to
squeeze into Jackson's
agenda a visit to Yad
Vashem. The visit took
place Wednesday morn-
ing. Even at this site,
Jackson made a controv-
ersial remark: "Such a
holocaust," he said,
"should not happen to

reference to Jews as indi-

FACE THE FACTS!

We must inform and educate our
fellow Americans so that the facts are
known and fully understood, for we
represent what is best for America and
what we seek is in defense of free people
everywhere.

We and the American Jewish
community cannot compete dollar for
dollar with the vast budget at the
disposal of the Arabs and their friends.
But the ZOA has a special responsibility
which makes it imperative that we do
our utmost to defeat the campaign to
destroy Israel and the American-
Israel Alliance.

BE COUNTED!

Prime Minister Begin re-
fused to meet with Jackson,
reportedly at the request of
Foreign Minister Moshe
Dayan. In the U.S., Dayan
said he did not want to
legitimatize Jackson's
self-appointed role as a go-
between for Israel and the
PLO. Jackson called Begin
a racist for not meeting him.
Jackson cancelled his
earlier plans to visit with
Christian militias in
south Lebanon and meet
Yosef Tekoah, president
of Ben-Gurion Univer-
sity.
He visited the Kalandia
refugee camp north of
Jerusalem and applauded
when the local speakers
praised the Palestine Lib-
eration Organization as the
sole representative of the
Palestinian people.
Tekoah said the changes
in Jackson's tour only pro-
ved that he wanted to meet
more with Arabs than with
Jews. He said Israel would
never dare suggest to black

anyone, including the
Palestinians." At a serv-
ice in a Lutherian church
in the Old City, Jackson
stressed American black
support of Israel and
challenged "all acts of
terrorism." He urged the
PLO to recognize Israel.
Later, after a visit to Nab-
lus, Jackson was carried on
the shoulders of local citi-
zens, who shouted:
"Jackson-Arafat" and
"Arab Palestine." In his
speech, Jackson supported a
Palestinian homeland but
suggested that citizens of
the West Bank change their
tactics and take a leaf out of
the book of black Ameri-
cans.
"You are very close to
freedom and liberation, but
someone should have the
force to disconnect the circle
of terror and pain." Jackson
also shouted traditional
black civil rights slogans.

. Israeli Foreign Minister
Moshe Dayan said last
Thursday that at Camp
David the Americans raised
objections to Jewish settle-
ments in those territories
but none on individuals
buying land. The U.S.,
Dayan said, found "nothing
wrong with individuals"
-buying land but "now that
we are doing it we hear it
the other way around."

Before Dayan's remarks
at a press conference in
Washington late last week,
State Department spokes-
man Hodding Carter said
the Israel Cabinet decision
lifting the 12-year ban on
individuals buying land,
violated the "spirit" of the
Camp David accords and
raised difficulties in the
peace process.

Last Thursday, Carter
said the understanding at
Camp David was in the con-
text of the Palestinians and
Jordanians joining in the
discussions.

leaders to meet with the Ku
Klux Klan. Therefore,
Tekoah suggested, blacks in
America should not demand
that Israel meet with the
PLO, an organization which
calls for Israel's annihila-
tion.
After the announcement
that Begin would not meet
with Jackson, the Anti-
Defamation League repre-
sentative in Israel, Zev
Furst, issued a statement
saying that Jackson should;
be met so as not to hurt the
Israeli image in the U.S.
Furst's statement was
emphatically rejected by
ADL National Director
Nathan Perlmutter in the
U.S., who said Furst was
speaking for himself and
not for ADL.
