Special to The Jewish News

bout 50 foreign journ-
alists have been at-
tacked by Israeli
soldiers while covering riots
in Gaza and the West Bank,
according to an article in the
March 29 Village Voice. The
figure comes from Bob Slater,
a reporter in Time's
Jerusalem bureau and chair-
man of the Israeli Foreign
Press Association.
Among the attacks, accord-
ing to the Voice:
• On March 7, an American
free-lance photographer was
attached by soldiers as he
tried to take a photo of two
women watching a street
demonstration in Ramallah.
The photographer claimed he
was hit in the stomach with
a rubber bullet canister on
the barrel of a gun, grabbed
by the hair and thrown up
against a wall. He also states
that one soldier started to
drag him up the street by his
hair.
• On Feb. 5, an Israeli
lieutenant colonel held a
loaded pistol to the head of an
Israeli photographer working
for Newsweek. The pistol, ac-
cording to the photographer,
remained an inch or two from
his head for two or three
minutes. The photographer
was a veteran of the 1967 Six
Day War and is a captain in
Israel's military reserves.
• On Jan. 27, Israeli
soldiers beat a CBS camera
crew as they were filming
troops beating a Palestinian
youth. The soldiers allegedly
pulled the journalists' hair,
choked their sound man and
broke his recorder and ripped
cables from their equipment.

I MEDIA MONITOR I

Columnist Gores
Albert Gore
One of Washington's dirty
little secrets," wrote
Washington Post columnist
Richard Cohen last week, "is
that no politician dare discuss
the Middle East situation in
reasonable terms."
One of those politicians, in
Cohen's eyes, is presidential
hopeful Albert Gore, who has
criticized his Oval Office com-
petition — Jesse Jackson and
Michael Dukakis, "for, in ef-
fect, being less strident in
their support than Israel."
Jackson was "on firm
ground" about Jackson, de-
clared Cohen, "since from the
perspective of an Israel sup-
porter, Jackson's even-handed
approach is anathema."
But Dukakis, observed

Albert Gore: Pandering to Jewish
voters?

Cohen, is "an orthodox sup-
porter" of Israel. Gore
charged that the Massachu-
setts governor had sent "pre-
cisely the wrong message" by
endorsing the letter from 30
U.S. senators critical of Israeli
Prime Minister Yitzhak
Shamir's refusal to trade land
for peace.
"Wrong," said Cohen. "It
sends precisely the right
message — a message a good
many Israeli welcomed?'
Gore criticized Dukakis and
Jackson in a speech before a
Jewish group in New York,
whose presidential primary
will be held next Tuesday. In
the 1984 New York primary,
Jews cast nearly 25 percent of
the vote.
"A New York campaign that
descends into a squabble over
who can pander best to the
Jewish community will hard-
ly serve the cause of peace in
the Middle East," concluded
Cohen. "If Albert Gore real-
ly wants to be presidential, he
should remember that, unlike
[New York City mayor] Ed
Koch, the policies he espouses
in Brooklyn will have to be
implemented beyond Flat-
bush."

Report Urges
Classier Hebrew
In a ten-page report on the
state of Jewish education in
the current issue of B'nai
B'rith International's Jewish
Monthly, Boston Hebrew
school teacher, Esther
Schreier, lists several prob-
lems — and possible solutions
— with today's Hebrew
schools. Among these:
• Lack of teacher training.
Knowledge of Hebrew and
Judaica does not automatic-
ally make a good Hebrew
teacher. Acquiring greater ex-
perience can remedy some of
these problems, said Schreier.
This is often difficult in
Jewish education: Since the
