Now that the football strike
is over, there is a good chance
that the owners will offer
some concessions, but they
still deal from a position of
relative strength and will not
give in to all the players'
demands. If the Palestinians
ever abandon their "strike,"
they will no doubt find that
some of their demands will
also be met. They will not get
everything that they want,
but that is the nature of
negotiations. For 40 years
they have insisted on having
everything and have received
less than nothing. They have
lost more of their homeland.
In the meantime, Israel has
grown stronger and its people

port the status-seeking
narrow-mindedness of the few
in power.
Nor did Rabbi Stanley
Rosenbaum fit well into this
vision. He cared for all people,
was firmly committed to the
community B'nai Moshe was
built to serve, and the Greater
Detroit community-at-large.
His efforts to help people
meet future needs together
should not go unnoted.
So, here is a congregation
with a prime location, conve-
niently accessible from a
freeway designed to enhance
the area's value. An active
temple continues in strength
across the street; a Conser-
vative synagogue teems with
young families and old
friends within four blocks.
Seven Orthodox congrega-
tions are firmly entrenchd in
the community. One half-mile
away a new congregation
opens its doors. All
synagogues in the area are
openly reviewing future op-
tions and none, save B'nai
Moshe, have plans to abandon
Oak Park, including the two
mentioned by Mr. Wanetik.
We have joined Beth
Shalom, where our input and
volunteer time is welcomed
without regard to political
favoritism, where synagogue
finances are openly published
for members, where future
plans were set forth clearly to
us before we joined, where
everyone is made to feel im-
portant regardless of age,
economic status or religiosity.

How Can We
Advise Israel?
I have been a subscriber to
The Jewish News for about 35
years and I do not recall be-
ing more provoked than when
have lived relatively pro-
sperous lives despite the
necessity of fighting six wars.
In desperation, the football
players turned to the courts
for help. The Palestinians do
not have that option. They
can seek another opportunity
to speak to Secretary Shultz
and to enter into the peace
process. Israel and Jordan
have both agreed that there is
a place for them at the
bargaining table if they want
to take it without the PLO.
If the Palestinians persist,
however, in the PLO delusion
that they can liberate their
homeland, they will continue
to live in misery.
reading the letter from the
two gentlemen from the New
Jewish Agenda (Dec. 25).
Can anyone imagine what a
disaster it would bring if the
300 Jewish organizations
would each advise and de-
mand that Israel do this or
that? Would anyone dare to
tell the parents of the six
young men killed recently in
a terrorist attack to vote for
Likud or Labor or what to do
about the West Bank? Our
brave brothers and sisters live
and die by their decisions.
They are the only ones who
can decide the grave problems
Israel has.
I have always supported
Israel to the best of my abili-
ty and will do so forever.
Regardless of what political
party is in power, we can give
our opinion on anything. But
no Jew anywhere in the
world, regardless whether he
or she gives $100 or $1
million to Israel, has the
right to decide on Israel's
foreign policy and defense.
The letter from the New
Jewish Agenda, in my opi-
nion, gives comfort to Israel's
enemies as they try to divide
the Jewish community.

Kashrut
The Jan. 1 Jewish News ar-
ticle on the appointment of
Rabbi Mordechai Wolmark as
director of kashrut for the
Council of Orthodox Rabbis
(Vaad) raises some serious
questions about the true con-
dition of kashrut in our com-
munity .. .
The Vaad makes it sound
like they have mashgichim
(inspectors) all over town,
judiciously inspecting every
butcher shop, every place that
purports to sell kosher meat.
