future. It is Auschwitz that
made possible Hiroshima. In
Hitler s Germany, criminals
in power decided to exter-
minate a whole people, and
the world let them do it. Thus
they furnished proof that one
could push the horror of
cruelty to its limit. And so,
why would what was true
yesterday not be true to-
morrow?
Both end and beginning,
Auschwitz marks a turning
point in history. Hiroshima
also. We use a capital letter
to refer to the bomb which
destroyed a city with its in-
habitants: the Bomb becomes
a sort of divinity. Its shadow
envelops us from one end of
the world to the other. In its
presence, there exists no
shelter whatsoever. Born as a
result of the discovery of fire,
civilization risks perishing in
fire.
The danger is even more
serious because this destruc-
tive weapon could easily fall
into the hands of fanatic, ir-
responsible rulers. Imagine
an Ayatollah Khomeini hav-
ing nuclear missiles at his
command. Isn't it obvious
that he would use them
against his enemies? then
against their allies? then
against all the "disbelievers"
of the earth?
The Jewish tragedy of
Auschwitz affected all hu-
manity; and it is only now,
after Hiroshima, that we are
conscious of it. In this sense,
one can affirm that, today,
the whole world has become
Jewish. In other words, there
is a complete fusion between
the Jewish condition and the
human condition.
Is it necessary to clarify
that? For two thousand years
the Jewish people lived in
uncertainty; now all people
everywhere live in uncertain-
ly. For two thousand years
,
the Jewish people lived at the
threshold of the unknown;
now all people everywhere
live at the threshold of the
unknown. For two thousand
years the Jewish people
depended on the good will or

caprice of a sovereign some-
where; today all people every-
where depend on the caprice
of a leader or group of
leaders.
What can we do to remedy
the situation? Not a lot, un-
fortunately. The nuclear
demon grows and multiplies
from day to day. Only a naive
person would think it possi-
ble to disarm and send it off
elsewhere. Our only chance of
salvation lies in the fact that,
despite appearances, humani-
ty refuses to die. We there-
fore need to awaken it. Sen-
sitize it. Tell it that, in this
domain also, indifference
serves only death. To bre*
through the indifference, to
protest against it, we have
only to remember Auschwitz.
It is indifference that per-
mitted Auschwitz to exist
and to function.
Auschwitz and Hiroshima:
two names which inspire fear.
It is well they do. It is for-
tunate they inspire fear. This
fear will save us perhaps.
Translated from the French by
Ann Stiller.
Group Hits Propaganda
Aimed At Farmers
New York (JTA) — Christian
and Jewish religious leaders last
week joined with the head of the
Kansas Bureau of Investigation,
a farming official and a political
analyst in denouncing recent
moves to stir up anti-Semitism
among Midwestern farmers,
warning that these actions
posed a danger to the farmers
and to democracy, as well as to
Christian-Jewish relations.
Issuing the warning, at a
new conference at American
Jewish Committee headquarters
in New York, were Bishop
Maurice Dingman, head of the
Catholic Diocese of Des Moines;
Rev. Donald Manworren, execu-
tive coordinator, Iowa Inter
church Forum; Rabbi A. James
Tudin, AJCommittee national
director of interreligious affairs;
Thomas Kelly, director, Kansas
Bureau of Investigation; Dixon
Terry, chair, Iowa Farm Unity
Coalition; and Leonard Zeskind,
research director, Center for
Democratic Renewal.
The principal charge leveled
by the group was that several
right-wing organizations, pre-
ying on the fears of economic
distressed farmers, were spread-
ing propaganda alleging that
"Eastern bankers" and an "in-
ternational Jewish conspiracy"
were behind the current rural
economic crisis. The specific
solutions offered by the six
speakers varied, - but all
exhorted the federal government
to move quickly to find answers
to the farm crisis, and all called,
for programs to, make farmers
aware of the falsity and vicious-
ness of anti-Semitic propaganda.
