THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS Friday, August 30, 1985 37 National Council of Jewish Women Greater Detroit Section Farrakhan, Kahane Hit New York (JTA) — Calling both Louis Farrakhan and Rabbi Meir Kahane "cancers on the body politic," the Washington repre- sentative of the American Jewish Committee today urged Black leaders to denounce Farrakhan in much the same way that Jewish leaders have denounced Kahane. Speaking before the Hadassah national convention, Hyman Bookbinder said that Farrakhan and Kahane had no common goals but had "much in common in their basic intolerance and their basic rejection of the democratic proc- ess." Meanwhile, the Jewish Defense Organization denied responsibil- ity for the fatal bombing of alleged nazi war criminal Tom Soob- zokov. Soobzokov, who according to the Simon Wiesenthal Center in Los Angeles, was a lieutenant in the Waffen SS during the war in a division that committed at- rocities against Jews in Russia is responsible for the death of nearly 100,000 Jews. Galilee Attack Tel Aviv (JTA) — Three Katyusha rockets were fired into the Galilee panhandle from south Lebanon in two separate incidents last weekend. There were no casualties, but some damage as one of the rockets landed in a field and started a brush fire. Three Katyusha rockets have landed in the Galilee since the Is- rael Defense Force withdrew from Lebanon earlier this year. Also, Katyushas aimed toward Israel have been discovered by the Israel-backed South Lebanon Army (SLA) inside the security zone in south Lebanon. SLA soldiers dismantled them before they were used. One of the Katyusha rockets that landed in the Galilee panhandle Sunday was reported at first to have been aimed from within the security zone in south Lebanon. But the IDF northern command revised that report and said it had been fired from outside the zone, from an area in which both the Shiite Amal organization and the United Nations forces were active. Labor-Likud Rift Growing Jerusalem (JTA) — Premier Shimon Peres, and Vice Premier Yitzhak Shamir met Friday in Jerusalem to discuss the bitter exchanges between Likud and Labor ministers over the past week. Much of the discussion, which took place at Peres' private resi- dence, was devoted to the espe- cially harsh criticism voiced by Minister Ariel Sharon against Labor. Peres said he could not think of any other example of a minister who talked that way about his own government. This latest deterioration in the relations between the two main partners , in the national unity . . cordially invites you to its Paid Up Membership Luncheon government began earlier this month at an Inner Cabinet ses- sion, which discussed the flat pur- chased by Jews in the Hebron Casba. At the height of the argu- ment, Shamir told Peres: "Noth- ing makes you more angry than a Jewish settlement," adding, "you are conducting a white paper pol- icy!, Cracow Bar Mitzvah New York (JTA) — On Sep- tember 7, the Jews of Cracow, Po- land, will celebrate their first Bar Mitzvah in 35 years. The Bar Mitzvah boy will be Eric Strom, an eighth-grader from Stamford, Conn. Eric, his family, and their rabbi will make the journey to Cracow because of a request from the leader of the Jewish commu- nity there: "Send us a Bar Mitzvah. Send us life," the Cracow Jewish leader said. Cable Car Dispute Tel Aviv (JTA) — Interior Minister Yitzhak Peretz, of the religious Shas Party, has ordered Haifa Labor Party's Mayor Arye Gurel to halt the planned opera- tion of the new Mount Carmel cable car from Stella Maris to the seashore on Saturdays and holi- days. But Gerul insisted this week that eliminating the operation on the Sabbath and holiday would render the enterprise uneco- nomical and would make it dif- ficult to find investors for the project. Peretz contended, how- ever, during a visit to Haifa, that economic considerations pale into insignificance in the face of Sab- bath observance. He said that "that effect of a week-day only operation should have been taken into considera- tion when the plans were first drawn up" for the Swigs-made, ball-like gondolas to take tourists and local residents up and down the mountainside. Tolerance Conference Washington (JTA) — Rabbi Ar- thur Schneier, president of the Appeal of Conscience Foundation, proposed a summit conference of religious leaders from throughout the world to help stem the spread of religious fanaticism which is causing intolerance, terror and persecution. "The purpose of such a confer- ence would be not to discuss theol- ogy but rather tolerance and re- spect for differences — how to seek it, how to teach it, how by precept an example, to practice it," he told reporters at the Na- tional Press Club. Rabbi Schneier said that the Appeal of Conscience Foundation, which seeks to promote religious freedom throughout the world, would set up a 12-member steer- ing committee by the end of the year to organize the. conference which he hopes would be held in 1986. , 414.1 featuring Jane Brody America's most trusted health writer, na- tionally syndicated columnist and author of "The New York Times Guide to Personal Health" will speak on "Living Your Life and Enjoying Every Minute of It" •Tuesday, September 10, 1985 •Adat Shalom Synagogue 29901 Middlebelt, Farmington Hills • 11:30 Registration . . .
