when it was liberated. Miles
Lerman, coordinator of the
conference, called it a "flag
of evil" and ordered it folded
and placed on the floor,
"symbolically at the feet of
the assembly."
Wiesel stressed that the
conference must demon-
strate that war, the ulti-
mate injustice, cannot be
considered as a solution to
any problem — for war is
the problem."
Also stressed by Wiesel
and others was the fact that
the Nazis were defeated by
"unique alliance of nations,
gigantic armies, transcend-
ing geopolotical and
ideological borders." Wiesel
noted that, by participating
in the conference, the vic-
tims and their liberators,
"rising above politics, above
the usual recriminations
between East and West,
may get the world to pay
more attention to what
hangs as threats to its very
future."
In addition to the
United States and Israel,
the countries repre-
sented were Belgium,
Canada, Czechoslavakia,
Denmark, France, the
Netherlands, New Zea-
land, Norway, Poland,
Soviet Union, Britain and
Yugoslavia.
The conference featured
workshops with descrip-
tions by victims, historians,

ADL Study Shows that Jews
Are Europe Terror Targets

SAN FRANCISCO (JTA)
— West European Jews are
the targets of international
terrorism even though they
are relatively secure in
their respective countries,
according to a survey by the
Anti-Defamation League of
Bnai Brith. The survey was
released at the ADL's Na-
tional Executive Commit-
tee meeting at the Fairmont
Hotel last week.
Abraham Foxman, ADL's
associate national director
and head of its Interna-
tional Affairs Division, said
the survey revealed that
Jews and Jewish institu-
tions "face very real threats
— including threats to their
physical safety — because of
bombings, assassinations,
attempted assassinations,
assaults and vandalism."
The countries examined by
ADL were Austria, Bel-
gium, England, France,
Italy and West Germany.
Terrorist acts are not only
aimed against Jews, Fox-
man declared, but, increas-
ingly, against American
military personnel and in-
stallations in Western
Europe and against other
European groups and indi-
viduals in an attempt to de-
stabilize society and bring
down democratic govern-
ments.
In other action taken at
the meeting, ADL praised
the California legislature
for being in the vanguard
of states adopting laws

barring paramilitary
training camps run by
the Ku Klux Klan and
other extremist groups.
Similar bills are pending
in several states, includ-
ing Michigan.
But the ADL criticized
the National Education
Association's new cur-
riculum on the KKK be-
cause it claims that Ameri-
can society is innately ra-
cist.
The curriculum says that
the KKK is "the tip of the
iceberg ... of entrenched ra-
cism" in America.
A prominent sociologist
at the ADL meeting has
cautioned Jews against
treating the evangelical-
fundamentalist religious
movement as being inci-
piently fascist because
"their attitudes just do not
warrant such a char-
acterization."
Furthermore, according
to Earl Raab, an author and
executive director of the
Jewish Community Rela-
tions Council of San Fran-
cisco, Marin County and the
Peninsula, the evangelical
population is not captive on
general political and eco-
to the
nomic issues
politicized preachers and
their movements, such as
the Moral Majority and the
Christian Round Table, and
Jews "should not impute
more power to those
preachers and movements
than they have."
