UNESCO Anti-Israe Actions Analyzed
LONDON — A survey
published by the Institute of
Jewish Affairs in its "Re-
search Report" series looks
at recent developments in
UNESCO and finds that the
campaign against Israel is
still being pursued. The
author of the report is Dr. F.
L. Brassloff, a member of
the International Law
Panel of the IJA.
The survey covers UN-
ESCO's recent decision to
establish formal relations
with the Islamic States
Broadcasting Services
Organization (ISBO), which
aims, among other things,
to make programs for
broadcasting that are anti-
Zionst and anti-Semitic.
The survey also deals
with recent UNESCO criti-
cism of Israel's policies in
Jerusalem and shows that
this criticism in no way ac-
cords with independent ex-
pert archeological opinion.
The UNESCO World
Heritage Committee de-
cided to place the Old
City of Jerusalem and its
walls on the "World Heri-
tage List," a move based
on the convention con-
cerning the Protection of
the World Cultural and
Natural Heritage. This
was a controversial deci-
sion because Israel is not
a party to the convention
and because the initial
nomination by Jordan
did not include monu-
ments of the pre-
Christian era.
Accusations that Israel
was planning to change the
character of Islamic cul-
tural monuments in
Jerusalem were made at the
UNESCO executive board's
113th session in September.
But the personal represen-
tative of UNESCO
Director-General Prof.
Lemaire concluded after a
visit to Jerusalem that the
archeological excavations
being carried out were "in
accordance with current
methods and rules. Their
value in throwing light on
the most ancient history of
Decision to Honor Hero
Sparks Debate in Israel
NEW YORK — Israel's
decision to honor Shimon
Bar Kokhba, who led the
second Jewish revolt
against Rome in 132 CE,
with a state funeral later
this year has sparked a de-
bate on whether the rebel-
lion was justified, or,
whether the general was a
wanton adventurer who
foolishly took on the Roman
Empire and caused the de-
struction of the Jewish
people in their homeland,
according to an article by
Jane Friedman in the New
York Times.
The Talmud and other
sources speak of Bar
Kokhba as a cruel, imperi-
ous leader and as a failed
Messiah. But with the
growth of Zionism, the gen-
eral came to be seen as a
freedom fighter who had •
waged the last battle for the
Jewish nation in its land,
the Times said.
Yehoshafat Harkabi,
former head of military in-
telligence and a professor of
international relations, at-
tacked the myth of Bar
Kokhba's military prowess
in his book, "Facing
Reality." Dr. Harkabi ac-
cused Bar Kokhba of wag-
ing an unrealistic policy
which brought about the de-
cimation of the Jewish
people.
Jerusalem is indisputable."
Prof. Lemaire also found
no evidence to support the
Jordanian UNESCO repre-
sentative's claim that the
character of Muslim
cemeteries next to the old
wall of Jerusalem had been
altered.
Dr. Brassloff shows that
the relations between the
ISBO and UNESCO is an
example of the growing Is-
lamic influence in UN-
ESCO. ISBO, set up by the
Organization of the Islamic
Conference based at Jed-
dah, Saudi Arabia, aims to
safeguard and defend Islam.
This involves making
Dr. Brassloff concludes,
"UNESCO authorities in
their present composite
appear to find ISBO's pa }
san activities and projects
compatible with the ideals
set out in the world body's
constitution."

He wrote that wars had
to be judged by results,
and the result of the Bar
Kokhba revolt was mass
suffering, the loss of
Jerusalem and the crea-
tion of Diaspora.

Dr. Yisrael Eldad, a pro-
fessor of Jewish history,
argues that although people
may think today that Bar
Kokhba's revolt was
doomed, this is a "posteriori
wisdom." Dr. Eldad main-
tains that there are circum-
stances when a war is
necessary, even though
there may be no chance of
winning.
Evaporation a Key to Canal
BEERSHEVA — How
much electricity can be gen-
erated by the
Mediterranean-Dead Sea
Canal is a question being
given very careful attention
in the geo-chemistry lab-
oratory of Prof. Shmuel
Ben-Yaakov of Ben-Gurion
University of the Negev.
The amoung of electricity
this project can generate is
limited by the rate of evap-
oration from the Dead Sea
(as this is the parameter of
how much Mediterranean
water can be brought in).
Prof. Ben-Yaakov's concern
is how the inflow of water
will affect the turbidity
(opacity) and reflectivity,
and hence the rate of evap-
oration, from the Dead Sea.
One wouldn't generally
expect to find a water re-
search laboratory in a
Department of Electrical
Engineering, but Prof.
programs which "con-
front the doctrinal
Zionist, racial and col-
onialist danger, threaten-
ing the Arab nation." An-
other program tells the
"story of . . . the six
companions of Prophet
Mohammed who de-
fended Islam against the
conspiracies of the
Jews."
From
Ben-Yaakov has been in-
volved, for the last 15
years, in developing in-
strumentation to meas-
ure water quality.
In addition to the
Mediterranean-Dead Sea
studies, Prof. Ben-Yaakov
is developing the in-
strumentation that will
allow computers to provide
continuous analysis of
water quality, and will
eventually provide for the
automated maintenance of
the "ideal" state. This is a
project with important im-
plications for aquaculture,
and for waste-water treat-
ment facilities.
