Franklin said there is a future for Jews in a democra- tic non-racial South Africa. He denied that Jews were fleeing that country. He said that while many are leaving, it is not "a wave." South Africa has about 110,000 Jews, down from about 125,000 ten years ago, he said. He stressed that most Jews see their future in that country and won't leave, either because of the curren- cy regulations which allow an emigrant to take only $30,000 or, more importantly, "people have got at- tachments." At the same time, he said the community has a false sense of "complacency" and does not realize majority rule will eventually be achieved, either peacefully through pressure from the West or a change of public opinion among whites, or as he fears, through violent means. Franklin said that black leaders "categorically state" that "the situation will not deteriorate" once majority rule is achieved. South African Jews who fear of majority rule, as many do, should visit neighboring Zimbabwe, where a "radical government" is in power, Franklin said. He visited the country, which had a Jewish population of some 1,000 last year. "I can truthfully say that Jews are functioning as a community," Franklin said. "Some said to me they don't know why they went through all that turmoil." Zimbabwe has had a majority black government since 1979. .

Neither objective was achieved. The defense minister refer- red to the fatal stabbing of an Israeli, Shlomo Takal, in the central square of Gaza on Dec. 6 as a serious example of ter- rorism in the administered territories, carried out for na- tionalistic or religious reasons. He said, however, that despite the difficulties of combatting terrorism, some 80 percent of all serious ter- rorist attacks have resulted in the arrest and punishment of the assailants. Rabin said that at least two Arab countries — Syria and Iraq — are capable of waging chemical warfare. He said there was a third country, as well, which he declined to name. Light Sentences Are Appealed Bonn (JTA) — The state pro- secutor in East Berlin has ap- pealed against the relatively light sentences given by a district court there to four neo-Nazi thugs convicted of acts of violence. The prosecutor contended that the one- to two-year terms were not consistent with the nature of their offenses. The four, members of a "skinhead" group, broke into the Zion Church in East Berlin on Oct. 17, shouting "Jewish pigs" and "send the Jews to the gas chambers." They injured several con- gregants, some seriously, and damaged property. . This Holiday Season Give The Gift That Lasts — Give The Gift of Music! There's No Better Way To Wrap Up Your Feelings!

Addressing high school students in Ramat Gan, Rabin said, "We have never had a war which ended all wars, and we can never have such a war. There can be no single war or operational bat- tle which can eradicate ter- rorism." He added, "I know it's nice to think so, to create expecta- tions. But that's not the truth. There has been no one war to end all wars."

Croiset, 49, who escaped his captors, described them as two men and a woman bet- ween the ages of 20 and 30, all of Dutch nationality. He said he was held in an aban- doned factory near Charleroi, south of Brussels, subjected to anti-Semitic epithets and forced to swallow sleeping pills.
