Timmerman Forced Argentina's
Anti-Semitism Out Into the Open

By MURRAY ZUCKOFF
NEW YORK (JTA) —
_One of the obscenities in
American Jewish life is the
spectacle of Jewish repre-
sentatives flying down to
Argentina to get the latest
progress reports about the
Jewish situation there from
the government and the
Jewish community leaders.
From the almost glowing
reports they deliver upon
their return to this country
about the Jewish condition
in Argentina, it would ap-
pear that these representa-
tives go there less for the
sake of assessing the real
condition than to disprove
the contention of Jacobo
Timerman that Argentina
is rife with anti-Semitism

and manifestations of neo-
Nazism.

They return to proclaim
that there is no Holocaust,

that the regime is not a
clone of Nazi Germany', and
that Jews are relatively safe

and secure.
-
These representatives
completely ignore or

jailings, torture and the
disappearance of
thousands changed in
any way? Is the reality
that Jews who are ar-.
rested are treated more
brutally than non-Jews
changed in any way?

After all, the views, opin-
ions and contentions of one
person can neither create
nor negate reality.
If one believes that the
reality in Argentina is
different than that de-
scribed by Timerman, there
are other sources to check:
the mothers of the disap-
peared ones who gather
weekly at the Plaza de Mayo
in Buenos Aires seeking to
learn the whereabouts of
their loved ones; Amnesty
International; the Council
on Hemispheric Affairs; the
Anti-Defamatidn League of
Bnai Brith; and the Inter-
American Commission on
Human Rights, an agenty of
the Organization of Ameri-
can States.

The tragedy in Argentina
— as in other South Ameri-
can countries — is that
aside from those who are
known to have been jailed or

deny the massive viola-
tions not only of human
rights generally in
Argentina, but the viola-
tions of Jewish rights in who have disappeared there
particular. They return may be many more Jews

literary hacks staking out
their claims as rabid Holocaust in Argentina
at
this time (and Timer-

Perhaps there is not

support his contentions even a pogrom, if one ac-

Benno Weiser Varon, Mark
Falcoff and William
Buckley not only
vilify Timerman by smear-
ing him as a darling of the
American left and as a
former supporter ofleftwing
guerillas in Argentina, but
also try to deny the validity
of his suffering as a Jew
while he was in jail which
he described so poignantly
in his book,"Prisoner With-
out a Name, Cell Without a

Number."

The diatribes these hacks

direct against the former
publisher and editor of the
La Opinion are not so much
for his criticism of the
Argentine Jewish leaders
for being silent about the
tragedy which has befallen
the Jews in their country,
but more for his attacks
against the Argentine junta
and the Reagan Adminis-
tration which seeks to bol-
ster it as an ally.
But let's forget Timer-
man. Let's pretend he
doesn't exist. Is the

Vandals Daub
ZUrich Building

GENEVA (JTA) —
Anti-Semitic slogans along
with a swastika were
painted on the windows of a
buliding in Zurich where a
Jewish artist is exhibiting
her paintings.
The slogans read, "Jews
and freaks out," and "Dirty
Jews, out."
Police are investigating
the incident but say they
are inclined to believe that
the preerpetrators are the
very same "angry young
people" who have been stag-
ing violent demonstrations
for the past year, causing a
great deal of property dam-
age and injuring many

quarters are directly oppo-
site the building where the
exhibition is being held.

say and do if 2,000 Jews dis-
appeared in the Soviet
Union or in some Arab
country? The answer is ob-
vious. But there is only
equivocation and prevarica-
tion about the plight of
Argentine Jewry.
If Timerman does nothing
else for the rest of his life, he
has already left an indelible
imprint on history by forc-
ing world opinion to deal
with the issue of the Jews in
Argentina. Can the or-
ganized Jewish community
in America do less?
