JERUSALEM — Israeli
Interior Minister Yosef
Burg told the Knesset
Tuesday that he was op-
posed to a plan that would
resettle Israel's 1,400
"Black Hebrews" in the
Negev.
The "Black Hebrews,"
mostly illegal immigrants
from the U.S. who claim to
be descendants of the an-
cient tribes of Israel, would
be offered citizenship under
the .plan after five years.
Burg, however, opposed
the plan. He said he would
not seek their expulsion
Dave's Fish & Seafood
from Israel but hoped the
government would urge
them to leave.
The Jerusalem Post re-
cently published unsub-
stantiated charges that
the Black Hebrews vic-
timize some of their
members by withholding
food and their passports.
Officials say they are
worried about a possible re-
peat of the Jonestown,
Guyana massacre in which
hundreds of American cul-
tists committed suicide.

city has grown by 72 percent
(from 65,000 to 111,000).
