she's always amazed at her
husband's drive. She knows
he gets discouraged and
frustrated, but unlike so
many political activists he is
still going strong. "When it
comes to the dirty work, peo-
ple are always willing to call
on Iry Rubin and the JDL,"
she said. "He has real guts."
He believes JDL is
misunderstood. "Listen," he
said, "the JDL was never
meant to be a permanent
organization. That's what's
wrong with Jewish organiza-
tions. They never die. What is
the American Jewish Com-
mittee, what is the American
Jewish Congress? Most peo-
ple have absolutely no con-
cept what these groups stand
for. Back in the 30s they
helped out Jews who were vic-
tims of Jew-hatred. Most have
a pro-Israel policy, yet in the
same house they have a New
Jewish Agenda, which has
pro-Palestinian aspirations.
But they won't let us in."
Much of Rubin's shtick has
the feeling of 60s street
theater — for example bran-
dishing semi-automatic
weapons or knives in front of
news cameras. The city at-
torney tried to put Rubin in
jail for soliciting murder
when Rubin offered $500 to
anyone who killed or maimed
a Nazi, and $1,000 if "he
brings me his ears." A jury
decided that Rubin's remarks
were constitutionally pro-
tected political hyperbole.,
On the other hand, Rubin
has been arrested more than
30 times, although he never
was convicted of a felony. In
New York, several JDL
members face prison terms
for setting off smoke bombs in
a theater and attempts at
fire-bombing and pipe-
bombing cars.
Rubin, however, says the of-
ficial JDL has little presence
in New York, so split is it in-
to various factions, some of
whom make no bones about
their desire for violence.
Police estimates suggest
there are about 30 hardcore
JDL members here and more
than 1,000 who write checks.
His ideology, like that of his
original mentor, Rabbi Meir
Kahane, came from Zeev
Jabotinsky, the Zionist who
inspired Prime Minister
Menachem Begin. Rubin also
is an admirer of right-wing
pundit William Buckley, ex-
cept presumably on Israel,
where Buckley, whose family
fortune comes from oil, is not
very sympathetic.
