In his article in the
Maoist review Sartre jus-
tified the massacre of the Is-
raeli athletes at Munich by
arguing that a state of war
existed between Israel's "es-
tablishment" and the Pales-
tinians.
Sartre said that in this
uneven combat the only ef-
fective weapons which the
terrorists can muster is ter-
rorism. In his polemic on
behalf of the assassins,
Sartre made the comparison
between the revolutionary
forces that fought the
French in Algeria and the
Palestinian struggle
against Israel. One cannot
support the first, he said,
without the second.
Sartre admitted that the
terrorism weapon is execra-
ble but that it is the only
thing which "poor and op-
pressed people" have re-
course to. The Palestinians,
he argued further, chose the
Olympics as a venue for
their deed because it had
world significance. "Denied
representation at the UN,
they were forced to choose
this method to publicize
their cause," he wrote.
After castigating the Is-
raeli government for its in-
flexibility in the Munich af-
fair, Sartre said:
"Thus the Olympic
Games attack showed
everyone the despair of the
Palestinian fighters and the
horrible courage which this
despair gives them. It does
not tactically advance their
cause but it demonstrates it
and proves better than any
UN speeches that the Pales-
tinian problem must be re-
solved immediately and
that the Palestinian prob-
lem has become everyone's
problem."
The response to Sartre's
10-year-old article has been
swift.
Michel-Antoine Bur-
nier, an essayist, writing
in the same periodical
which featured Sartre's
piece, called the latter "a
dirty surprise." Burnier
pointed out that the

make an unscheduled stop
in Tel Aviv-Jaffa, which he
had longed to visit. "It made
me happy to see the old soil
where my Jewish brethren,
in the Diaspora for 2,000
years found a place again in
their homeland," he said.
Mr. Rubinstein had been
a friend of Dr. Chaim
Weizmann, who sparked his
interest in the limitless vis-
tas for scientific research —
and the crucial role it could
play — in a revitalized
Jewish homeland.
As the Weizmann Insti-
tute took shape and
flourished in Rehovot,
Mr. Rubinstein's support
of its research work
deepened. The institute
awarded him an honor-
ary Doctor of Philosophy
degree in 1976 in recogni-
tion of this support.

that he also knew other
great Zionist leaders,
among them Max Nordau
and Nahum Sokolow, who
arranged one of his first
concerts in pre-state Israel.
It took place outdoors, in
front of the King David
Hotel in Jerusalem. "I knew
Sokolow from childhood,"
said Mr. Rubinstein, "be-
cause he edited a Hebrew
paper in Warsaw — Hatz-
fira — and my father con-
tributed articles to that
paper."
Mr. Rubinstein carried on
his father's commitment to
Israel and was a passionate
champion of the Jewish
state and a strong supporter
of its cultural life. He gave
concerts there on the aver-
age of once a year until his
retirement in 1976.
In December 1978, he was
presented by President Car-
ter and Jacqueline Kennedy

Scores of anecdotes are
accredited to Mr. Rubins-
tein, among them the one
about Albert Einstein,
recalling an incident
when the famed pianist
joined the Nobel Prize-
winning physicist for a
piano and violin sonata.
According to the New
York Times:
"The physicist missed a
cue in one passage and came
in four beats late. They
started again, and once
more Einstein missed the
cue. Mr. Rubinstein turned
to his partner in mock
exasperation and
exclaimed, 'For God's sakes,
professor can't you even
count up to four?' "
Mr. Rubinstein received
the U.S. Medal of Freedom
in 1976.
also stated that Sartre's
rationale is an explana-
tion of why there is now
an open hunting season
on Jews in France today.
Of Sartre, Burnier wrote,
"Sartre himself taught us
that to be quiet is a form of
speaking and one is respon-
sible for one's writings, even
the consequences thereof.
Those sentences have tar-
nished the image of a man."
