The courtroom was jam-
med with the families and
friends of the deportees,
members of their respective
town councils, foreign and
Israeli journalists and
representatives of the Red
Cross. Two Communist
MKs, Meir Wilner and
Charlie Biton, were also
present.
The opening agrument by
Langer was that the depor-
tation order against the
mayors violated Jordanian
law which still applies on
the West Bank and was con-
trary to international law.
The state, represented by
attorney Dorit Beinish, pre-
sented an opinion which the
high court has accepted in
previous cases.
According to Beinish,

Asked why the U.S. is

to consider the interests of

Trattner added: "I am not

Rise in Anti-Semitism
Attributed to Economics
NEW YORK (JTA) —
Former Secretary of State
Henry Kissinger Monday
blamed the worsening eco-
nomic conditions in the
West caused by the "oil
problem" as partly respon-
sible for the upsurge in
anti-Semitism and neo-
Nazism.
In the public mind, cer-
tain problems, such as the
West Bank, have "become a
copout and surrogate for ev-
erything else," he told a
'standing room audience or
more than 1,500 persons at
Cong. Bnai Jeshurun. He
said this is expressed in the
belief by some that "if only
not for Israel and the Jews
there would not be an oil
problem."
Kissinger was responding
to questions from Rabbi
William Berkowitz of Bnai

the Middle East from
American view is anothe-
radical state, armed by the
Soviet Union, with leaders
trained in the Soviet Union,
wedged between Jordan and
Israel and a menace to
both."
He added that for this
reason he opposed a
Palestinian state and be-
lieveg' the future of the
West Bank should be de-
cided in negotiations be-
tween Israel and Jordan.
Kissinger said the U.S.
must support the moderate
states in the region. He
charged the Carter Ad-
ministration with trying to
appease the radical states in
the hope that they would
become moderate. He said
the collapse of Iran bene-
fited the radical states and
has caused the moderate
states that counted on the
U.S. to back away from
Washington.
