West Germany Details
Neo-Nazi Activities

Bonn (JTA) — The Interior
Ministry reported last week that
neo-Nazi organizations in West
Germany have a combined
membership of about 22,500,
that several of them are prone to
violence and that extremists on
the far right have one thing in
common with extremists of the
far left—anti Americanism.
But while emphasizing that
aspect, the Ministry made no
mention of recent anti-Semitic
manifestations involving
members of the mainstream
political parties that were
serious enough to prompt a full
scale debate in the Bundestag.
These included a remark by the
mayor of one town, affiliated
with the ruling Christian
Democratic Union (CDU) that
"killing a few rich Jews" would
balance the municipal budget.
An official of the Christian
Social Union (SCU), the CDU's
Bavarian sister-party, created a
scandal when he said, with in
reference to reparations claims
by Jews used as slave labor dur-
ing World War II, that Jews
always show up when money
jingles in German cash boxes."
The Interior Ministry's report
noted that there were 78 neo-
Nazi groups in 1985, the largest
being the German Peoples
Union with a membership of
12,000.
The second largest, with a
membership of 6,100, was led by
the National Democratic Party

(NPD). The NPD has made
repeated but unsuccessful at-
tempts in recent years to get its
candidates elected to the
Bundestag and to state
parliaments.
Its one success, the report
said, was in the state elections
of delegates to the Strasbourg-
based Parliament of Europe
where the NPD group won near-
ly five percent of the popular
vote.
The report singled out two
other groups, the "Social
Revolutionists" and "National
Revolutionists," as militants
who resorted to violence. They
have gained influence with the
radical right, the report said.
Both rightwing and leftwing
extremists denounce American
"imperialism" and spread
hostility against Americans sta-
tioned in West Germany, the
report said. They depict
Americans here as represen-
tatives of a foreign power trying
to impose its will on the German
people against their own
interests.

The report said the 3,550 of
West Germany's Arab residents
are affiliated with such groups
as the Palestine Liberation
Organization.
According to the report, PLO
dissidents opposed to Yasir
Arafat have failed to attract
substantial support among
Arab extremists.

THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS

Jerusalem (JTA) — Police
rescued a secular leader from
enraged Orthodox Jews who
surrounded his car on a
Jerusalem street last Saturday
evening after he fired a pistol in-
to the air in a vain attempt to
disperse the crowd.
The incident occurred on
Yosef Ben-Matityahu Street,
bordering a religious neighbor-
hood. Abraham Fritzi, chairman
of the Jerusalem Committee
Against Ultra-Orthodox vio-
lence, drove there to investigate
a barricade of garbage carts
erected earlier in the day to
block traffic because, according
to the Orthodox, a passing car
had hit one of their children that
afternoon.
He was stopped and his car
was encircled by a mob of black-
garbed men. He fired a single
shot to no effect. When police ar-
rived to extricate him, they were
stoned, as was Fritzi's car. The
windshield was shattered but
there were no injuries.
But calm reigned in Petach
Tikva, scene of almost weekly
clashes between ultra-Orthodox
Jews and Sabbath movie-goers.
The management of the Heichal
cinema decided to keep the
movie house closed as a one-time
goodwill gesture after the

(—)

(

religious leaders in Petach Tikira
agreed to control their cohorts.
According to the theater
manager, he wanted to give the
police a night off to spend with
their families.

In Tel Aviv, several hundred
people attended a rally organiz- -\
ed by Mapam, the Citizens
Rights Movement and the
Shinui party to protest at-
tempts to force secular Jews to
observe Orthodox religious
practices.
In another development, in
New York, the Agudath Israel
of America has urged Israeli
Prime Mionister Shimon Peres
to "spare no effort" to ease ten-
sions between religious and
secular Jews in Israel. A cable
to Peres from Diaspora Mem-
bers of the Inner Executive of
the Agudath Israel World
Organization referred to the
vandalism against two syna-
gogues in Tel Aviv and other
antireligious violence.
"We are shocked by the
deterioration of relations be-
tween the secular and religious
that have reached such a point
where synagogues are being
desecrated by Jews, a scandal
without precedent," the cable
said.
