34 Friday, November 25, 1983 THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS Hertzberg and Klutznick at Peace Now Conference JERUSALEM (JTA) — A prominent American Jew warned Israel not to become involved with the U.S. on the basis of mutual in- terests stemming from the exercise of power. Rabbi Ar- thur Hertzberg, an au- thor, lecturer and former president of the American Jewish Congress, main- tained that this kind of in- terest can change from one day to another. "The people in Israel fail to understand that America loves Israel not because it is led by tough leaders but be- cause of the values that it represents," Hertzberg said at a forum organized by Peace Now and the Interna- tional Center for Peace in the Middle East. Hertzberg, a professor of history at Columbia Uni- versity and leader of a Con- servative congregation in Englewood, N.J., was one of six Jewish leaders from the U.S. and Europe participat- ing in the conference on RABBI HERTZBERG Wedding, Rehearsal and Ceremony Assistance "The Affect of Occupation on the Jewish People." it was moderated by former Foreign Minister Abba Eban. According to Sharon Padzensky 559-4757 Hertzberg, the majority of American Jews object to Israel's policy of de facto annexation of the West Bank. He said that more and more Jews in the U.S. opposed the policies of the Likud-led government. He ob- served that whereas in the past supporters of the Peace Now movement in the U.S. "were castigated as defeatists," they are no longer stigmatized. Similar views were ex- pressed by David Susskind of Belgium, one of the or- ganizers of the Brussels World Conference on Soviet Jewry. He said he found it increasingly difficult to answer questions by the younger generation of Jews about Judaism and Israel, especially the issue of human rights for the Arabs. "It is customary here (in Israel) to stop people on the street for security question- ing just by their looks. For me as a Jew, this is a night- mare," he said. "I remember the not too distant past when one used to stop other people because of their looks," Susskind said. Pointing at the audi- ence which packed the hall, Susskind said, "Only a few kilometers from here there is an Arab population under occupation. Why can't they gather for a similar political forum?" Other conference par- ticipants included Philip Klutznick, former U.S. Sec- retary of Commerce and former chairman of the Con- ference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations; Feit Weiler of Switzerland; Andre Wormesser of France; and Harry van der Berg of Hol- land. Rumsfeld, Shamir Meet JERUSALEM (JTA) — Donald Rumsfeld, Presi- dent Reagan's new special envoy to the Middle East, met with Premier Yitzhak Shamir and other top Israeli officials last week. Rumsfeld flew in early from Cairo where he had a two-hour meeting with Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak. He also visited Beirut before coining to Is- rael and is expected to go to Damascus to see President Hafez Assad when the Sy- rian leader recovers from an appendicitis operation. Israeli sources said Rumsfeld's initial meeting with Shamir was largely a "listening session" for the new American envoy who is a former U.S. Secretary of Defense. Tri Color Classics.

Speaking on Voice of Is- rael Radio just a week be- fore Premier Yitzhak Shamir and Defense Minis- ter Moshe Arens are to meet with President Reagan at the White House, Modai said the memorandum, in- itialed by the two countries but never implemented, could have done considera- ble damage. It is possible, he said, that memorandum prompted Syria to sign its friendship treaty with the Soviet Union. According to Modai, a leader of Likud's Liberal Party wing, a U.S.-Israeli military pact would be much more meaningful be- cause it would commit the U.S. to provide substantial military assistance to Israel if it is attacked.
