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 Continued from Page 6 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. Sharon and Paul Levine Oak Park ADDRESS CITY Obstinance 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. David Kahan Troy Michigan 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.
