they said had died during the
current famine, and the right
for Jacobivici to address the
full plenary for five minutes.
CJF
President-elect
Shoshana Cardin first pro-
tested that their concerns
could be dealt with at an
already-scheduled forum on
Ethiopian Jewry following the
plenary and then threatened
to have them removed.
Dennis Flynn of Toronto —
who had come to bring greet-
ings from the city government
— attempted to cool off the
demonstration by announcing
a minute of silence. Shouting
Flynn down, the demon-
strators insisted that
Jacobovici be allowed to
speak. They then linked arms
and sat on the floor, Jacobovici
with the child still in his arms.
We are delegates here,"
Jacobovici insisted. You have
no right to refuse us five min-
utes of convention time for
2,000 dead. We don't want a
special forum. We want now."
As tempers rose,
plainclothes policemen joined
hotel security guards around
the group and 40 uniformed
policemen appeared outside
the doors of the grand bal-
lroom where the plenary was
taking place.
Attempts by Cardin and
Citrin to reach a compromise
by offering the podium to
either Mostig Ronen, North
American president of the Na-
tional Jewish Students' Net-
work, or Naomi Jacobs, Cana-
dian Network president — but
not to Jacobovici — were re-
jected by the demonstrator&
Both Ronen and Jacobs turned
down the offer to speak.
Finally, Citrin adjourned
the plenary and the mic-
rophones were disconnected.
As Jacobovici climbed on a
chair to speak, shouting
matches broke out all over the
hall. Ronen said he had re-
fused to address the session
because Network had not or-
ganized the demonstration.
"Much of the effort was
made by CAJE (the Canadian
Association for Jews in
Ethiopia), and their spokes-
man is Simcha Jacobovici,"
Ronen said. "I dont't sym-
pathize with their actions, but
I sympathize with their cause.
I think this issue should have
a much higher priority."
Cardin said that Jacobovici
was not offered the platform
because "I don't think that at
this point he would have to
held the five minutes. We
wanted someone we could rely
on." She said the protestors
were not forcibly removed be-
cause of the women and chil-
dren among them.
"We are doing the
maximum we can (to rescue
Falashas) without jeopardiz-
ing anyone," Cardin insisted.
But we cannot discuss what
we are doing."
According to Josef Enyev,
one of the demonstrators end a
Falasha who left Ethiopia
three years ago via Sudan,
protests cannot harm his
people. "They are already
endangered," he said. "They
are already dying. I think pub-
licity is necessary. It is the re-
sponsibility of world Jewry to
save the Falashas. We have a
right to be saved."
The planned session,
"Ethiopian Jewry: New Chal-
lenges and Responsibilities,"
was almost anti-climatic in
comparison to the demonstra-
tion. Only some 1,000 of the
2,000 Jewish community
leader's stayed for the session
while many others attended
an adjacent forum on religion
and politics.
Ambassador H. Eugene
Douglas, U.S. coordinator for
refugee affairs, described the
plight and suffering of mil-
lions of people around the
world suffering from famine,
disease and oppression and
noted that the plight of Ethio-
pian Jewry is part of this
global tragedy. Referring to
the earlier demonstration, he
exhorted the audience to
"have more trust" in the ef-
forts undertaken by the
American and Israeli govern-
ments to rescue Ethiopian
Jewry.
In answer to the demon-
strators, who had criticized
the Israeli government for its
failure to remove Jews di-
rectly from Ethiopia while
private Jewish groups in the
U.S. and Canada were doing
so, Douglas cautioned against
private groups trying to sub-
stitute their relief and rescue
work for that of government
efforts.
The reality, he said, is that
private groups are not in a
position to match what gov-
ernments can do through dip-
lomatic, financial and behind
the scene activities in provid-
ing the kind of and required by
mass populations in famine
stricken areas. Private groups
"should butt out of this field,"
Douglas said. He noted that
private groups often impede
and make more difficult the
work of governments in help-
ing those in need,
Jacobovici was given time to
address the audience. He re-
counted the terrible plight of
Ethiopian Jews.
