Reagan Accepts Israel's
Word On Pollard
Washington (JTA) — Presi-
dent Reagan indicated last week
that he accepts Israel's assur-
ance that Jonathan Pollard was
an unauthorized exception to
Israel's policy of not spying on
the United States.
"The only thing I know is that
the Israeli government has
assured us, as much as they can,
that they never had any program
of trying to get intelligence in-
formation from our country or
doing any spying on us," Reagan
said in a nationally-televised
press conference from the White
House.
He added that the Justice
Department is continuing its in-
vestigation, "but so far there's
been no evidence presented to us
from anyone."
Asked what he would do if
some evidence of additional,
Israeli spying was found, the
President replied, "Well, then I
think we'll have to deal with that
then and find out whether it's a
suprise to the Israeli govern-
ment, whether someone was off
playing their game or not."
Pollard pleaded guilty to spy-
ing for Israel while a civilian in-
telligence analyst for the Navy.
His wife, Anne, pleaded guilty to
the lesser charges of receiving
and possessing stolen national
defense documents. ,Both are
awaiting sentencing.
The Israeli government has
maintained that the Pollard
episode was a "rogue" operation
of which it had no knowledge.
The Israeli Embassy has de-
clared that charges that the es-
pionage went beyond Pollard are
"baseless."
The State Department said
that it accepts the Israeli
assurance that the espionage
does not go beyond Pollard and
that Israel is cooperating in the
continuing investigation.
However, Justice Department
sources have been asserting that
the espionage goes forther than
Pollard. Pollard is cooperating
with the probe as part of his plea
bargaining agreement in which
he will not receive a life sentence.
Justice Department sources
have hinted that other may be
indicted too, possibly the four
Israelis who were listed as
coconspirators with Pollard.
They are: Rafael Eitan, who as
head of the Bureau of Scientific
Affairs, headed the Pollard
operation; he is now chairman of
the board of Israel Chemicals.
Aviem Sella, who as an Air
Force colonel doing graduate
work at New York University,
was Pollard's first contact. Now
a brigadier general, he is in
charge of an Air Force base in
the Negev.
Joseph Yagur, who as consul
for scientific affairs at the Israeli
Consul in New York, replaced
Sella as Pollard's contact until
returning to Israel when Pollard
was arrested.
Irit Erb, who was a secretary
to the scientic attache at the
Israeli Embassy here and at
whose Washington apartment
Pollard delivered the informa-
tion. She also returned to Israel
immediately after Pollard's
arrest.
If any of the four are indicted
they would not be extradited,
but would be subject to arrest if
they returned to the U.S.

In New York
New York (JTA) — New York
Congressmen were urged by the
State Division of Human. Rights
to take the lead in enactment of
legislation to prevent such mili-
tary actions as the order to a
Jewish military chaplain not to
wear his skullcap while on duty.
Douglas White, the State Hu-
man Rights Commission, said
last 'week that such legislation
was needed to restore "the First
Amendment right of free exer-
cise of religion to members of the
armed forces."
The Supreme Court ruled last
March 25 that the Air Force
acted within its authority when
it banned the wearing of a skull-
cap by Rabbi Simcha Goldman,
who was working as a clinical
psychologist at March Air Force
Base in California.
White asserted that the Su-
preme Court decision could
"seriously undermine" the
religious discrimination provi-
sions of the New York Human
Rights Law and "open the door
to religious discrimination in
any job where a uniform is re-
quired."
Goldman was given a formal
letter of reprimand in May, 1981,
and threatened with a court
martial for refusing to remove
his skullcap on duty. Repre-
sented by the National Jewish
Commission on Law and Public
Affairs (COLPA), Goldman was
given a temporary restraining
order and an injunction on April
26, 1982 upholding his constitu-
tional right to wear a skullcap
on duty.
The District of Columbia
Court of Appeals reversed the
District Court ruling on May 8,
1984. After a COLPA petition to
the Appeals Court was rejected,
COLPA filed an appeal with the
Supreme Court.
White sent his request in let-
ters to the two U.S. Senators and
to 33 members of the House.
White noted, in that letter, the
introduction of bills on the issue
by Sen. Alfonse D'Amato (R.,
N.Y.) and Rep. Charles Schumer
(D., N.Y.).
The two bills would bar federal
officials from interfering with
the religious practices of mem-
bers of the armed forces. The
House measure would extend
the proposed ban to cover all
federal employes.
