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.
