CENTURY 21 MJL 9 CORPORATE TRANSFEREE SERVICE 851-6700 100 Friday, September 5, 1986 THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS POLITICS Pollster Lou Harris Sees Support • For Israel, As Well As Anti-Semitism. JOSEPH AARON Special to the Jewish Times J ust because Americans love Israel doesn't necessarily mean that they like Jews. That insight into how Americans feel comes from pollster Lou Harris, who spends his life probing what Americans think about all kinds of things. And one of the things Har- ris has consistently found, he said in an interview, is that American support for Israel is very solid. "Support for Israel is high, despite all the controversies, just as it's always been. At present, 78 percent of Americans feel very warm to Israel. The only time it's been lower than that was during the height of the Lebanon War and then sup- port only went down to 69 percent. That's the good news. The other news, he said, is that anti-Semitism is alive and well and living in the United States. Harris has measured anti- Semitism in the United States for years, mostly recently conducting polls in the Farm Belt where times are tough and where, he said, "farmers are being told their trouble is being caused by the bankers, which means by the Jews." Harris found that 24 per- cent of those living in farm or rural communities are anti- Semitic. And while, he said, "the signs are that it's not growing, it is there. Anyone who thinks it's not there is kidding themselves." "Outside the Farm Belt, Harris said, "there are other signs that I take quite ser- iously such as the increase in the stridency used when talk- ing about Jews." What those answers he's been getting add up to, he said, is "a question the Jewish community is really going to have to face. You have people who are pro- Israel, like in the Deep South, because they think Israel is a bastion of anti-Communism and a strong military power. They say, 'Thank God that Israel is there to bloody the noses of those syncophants of the Russians.' But the same people who say that are also more than a little anti- Semitic. "We need to beware of such gifts from such Greeks. Because if it comes down to it and they have to choose between their latent anti- Semitism or their admiration for Israel, they may very well go where their emotions are." Where the emotions of the country are in general, Har- ris said, is not where some would have you believe. Americans, he said, are not turning to the Right. "There is evidence on a whole host of issues that the conservative turn of the country reached its peak in the mid-70's and was aborted by Watergate. In fact, we find the Reagan years are sort of the end of an era, not the beginning of one. There are no signs of a realignment at all in the country. On the contrary, while Americans see Reagan as the 'Teflon President' who can do no wrong, more and more people are disagreeing with his policies. It's become common for people to say that they don't agree with very much of what Reagan stands for but isn't he a nice man?" What Americans are doing with those mixed emotions, `Anyone who thinks it is not there is kidding themselves. Outside the Farm Belt there are other signs . . Harris said, is invoking "a `Teflon Vengeance' which is now being visited upon George Bush who appears to be in deep trouble, with Republican moderates mov- ing up. That 'Teflon Vengeance' also means, said Harris, that "the Democrats have a good chance to recapture control of the Senate this year. There's no other way voters can take out their disagreements with Reagan policy on defense spending, Nicaragua and other issues." One other - way voters might do that, said Harris, will come in 1988. "The presidential election is up for grabs. If the Democrats nominate a halfway decent candidate, they have a very good shot at winning." One candidate who does not have a very good shot at all, said Harris, is the Rev. Pat Robertson. That's be- cause, he said, as the country has moved away from the Right, it's moved away from support of Moral Majority- brand Evangelical preachers. "Jerry Falwell used to get a negative rating of 50 per- ._:ent. Now, it's up to 72 per- cent. Sixty-two percent of Americans say they don't want preachers moving into politics. We're finding that the separation of church and state is something very deep- ly burned into the American psyche." As for other things Harris has learned from probing in- to that psyche, he said that the so-called rehabilitation of Richard Nixon is just that: so-called. "Nixon is rated as the best of our last eight presidents on foreign policy. He is also rated as the most dishonest man ever to sit in the White House and the one with the lowest morals. That is as true today as it ever was. The American people haven't changed on Nixon. It's only parts of the media that seem to have decided to proclaim him rehabilitated." Harris is also critical of those parts of the media that have been abusing something that he invented — exit- polling. Used primarily by the television networks, that's where voters are ask- ed who they cast their ballot for so that races can be predicted before the polls actually close. "The networks have con- vinced themselves that they get some kind of competitive advantage by breathlessly reporting the outcome of a race 10 minutes before the other guy. I don't think viewers really give a damn. What they want is a good analysis, to know what hap- pened and why. This rush to speed is unnecessary and doesn't make sense." And making sense of things is what Lou Harris is all about. "I get paid to be in- formed. to find things out. It's the best kind of job to have. I love it." Young Israeli Player In U.S. New York — Israeli bas- ketball clubs are increasingly depending on foreign players, particularly Americans, and not developing native players. Few Israeli-born players seem to reach their country's top league. The coaches of one of Is- rael's best clubs even told a promising 16-year-old that they wouldn't help him in his development and suggested that he go to the United States to make his million dollars. So 7'4" Yosef Ben- Naiim of Hadera, his parents and his sister did just that. Luckily for Yosef, he was re- ferred to Eddie Krinsky, a guidance counselor and former basketball coach at Westbury (N.Y.) High School, who has taken Yosef under his wing. Ben-Naiim has attended a basketball camp and a school for high school players and soon will head for Kutsher's v sports Academy in Mon- ticello, N.Y. Proprieter Mil- ton Kutsher has granted him a one-month scholarship at the academy, which accom- modates 500 basketball players from the East Coast. By autumn, when Yosef will attend Westbury High, he will have been exposed to many of the games's funda- mentals.
