tations, but the existence of
the Holocaust is an indis-
putable historical fact. To
state otherwise is a malici-
ous lie slandering not only
the millions of Jews and
other `inferior' groups mur-
dered by the Nazis, but also
the camp survivors and
those of us who recognize
these murders and feel it is
crucial that they not be for-
gotten.
"These
'revisionist'
theories have no historical
foundation and should not
be legitimized in the aca-
demic community.
"As we again witness the
Nazis marching we must
not forget.
• We must not forget
the legacy of Nazi Ger-
many.
• We must not forget
the occurence of the
Holocaust.
• We must not forget
that a Western 'civilized'
society is capable of per-
petrating cold-blooded
genocide.
• We must not forget
the
inherent
anti-
Semitism and racism of
Nazi ideology.
• We must not forget!
"Therefore, we condemn

of Arabs, turned the gather-
ing into a rally, making
dramatic statements about
Israel torture, Israeli
soldiers beating up Arab
schoolgirls, and Palestinian
"Freedom Fighters." He
categorically denied that
the PLO chooses
schoolyards and nurseries
as targets for terrorist at-
tacks.
In short, he contradicted
any statement ever made by
an Israeli government offi-
cial, and accused all
Zionists of having beliefs
which in fact all Zionists
would consider immoral.
Referring to Dr. Hus-
seini's claim that the PLO
would establish a secular
democratic state in 'Pales-
tine, Uri asked if he meant
secular as in Saudi Arabia,
and democratic as in Iran
and Iraq? He furthermore
asked whatever became of
democracy in Lebanon? Dr.
Husseini replied that it was
obvious that Uri considered
all Arabs to be savages and
then proceeded to skirt the
-question.
Realizing that there
were no points to be
gained in discussing the
issues with Arab suppor-
ters of the PLO (and also
realizing that Shabat
would be starting soon), I
stated to the gathering
that as Zionists we were
determined to continue
to have a Jewish state,
and that history has
taught us the need for
such a state. The reply of
Dr. Husseini was,
(paraphrased) "Go to Is-
rael! Shoot at our free-
dom fighters!," while the
response of the audience
was, (paraphrased) "Go
to Israel! Get killed!."
At this point, we were
exiting, and were on our
way home.
The most upsetting part
of this episode did not take
place until I reached home.
There I found a request from
the New Jewish Agenda for
funds. It was quite unnerv-
ing to read about an organ-
ization which recommends
taking a more liberal atti-
tude toward negotiations
with "freedom fighters."
What is needed in this
community is not the New
Jewish Agenda, but a new
Jewish commitment to
Zionist activity. Zionist
organizations exist for Jews
from any part of the reli-
gious and political spectra,
and they all are looking for
new members and commu-
nity support.

Detroiter Aided President
When President Ronald
Reagan was shot on March
30, he was taken to George
Washington University
Hospital. Dr. Sol Edelstein,
a former Detroiter and di-
rector of emergency
medicine at the hospital,
had just left the facility for a
week at home with his wife
and new-born son.
Called back -to the hospi-
tal, Dr. Edelstein, 34, an
anesthesiologist, spent the
next 24 hours in assisting in
the President's surgery and
recovery.
Dr. Edelstein is a
graduate of the Wayne
State University School of
Medicine. He developed his
interest in emergency care
while training at Detroit

JERUSALEM (ZINS) —
Only 55 percent of the Is-
raeli public believes that an
undivided Jerusalem must
remain the capital of Israel.
Some 16 percent said
Jerusalem could be declared
an international city and 12
percent said Jerusalem
could be a joint capital for
Israel and the Arabs.
Some 13 percent had no
opinion.

tute for Historical Review to
again put forth scapegoat
theories for the ills of
society and to obscure the
past atrocities of the Nazis."
The forum on April 2
began with a student-
produced multi-media pro-
gram on the Vilna Ghetto.
The audience was then ad-
dressed by Detroiter Martin
Doctoroff, a member of the
Anti-Defamation League's
national board and its
committees on national law
and civil rights.
Doctoroff identifed the
Institute for Historical Re-
view as a front group for the
right-wing Liberty Lobby.
Following his speech and a
question-and-answer ses-
sion, the film "Night and

On April 3, SCAR staged
a noon rally attended by
several hundred students as
a memorial to the victims of
the Holocaust.
