the credibility of the new PLO
position, but to question its
sincerity and to scorn its
challenge."
Because of their profound
distrust of the PLO's inten-
tions, the response of Israelis
to signs of Palestinian flex-
ibility is characterized by con-
fusion, anger and, sometimes,
blatant repression.
According to all the avail-
able evidence, there is no hint
that Israel is either willing or
able to meet the challenge of
a concerted PLO peace offen-
sive.
The terrible recent history
of European Jewry is a cons-
tant presence in the Israeli
national consciousness, and
there is an understandable
obsession with security and
survival.
The Palestinians, for their
part, were made refugees dur-
ing Israel's 1948 War of In-
dependence and again during
the 1967 Six Day War. They
have, at various times in the
past 20 years, been
slaughtered by the Jorda-
nians, the Syrians and the
Lebanese; driven from one
unsafe refuge in the Middle
East to another.

Calling Israel's Bluff?

FRIDAY, AUGUST 26, 1988

The very crux of the
tragedy — the heart of this
conflict between competing
rights — is that Jewish and
Palestinian nationalism is
based on affinity to precisely
the same piece of land — a
land which currently con-
stitutes the Jewish state.
However, now that the PLO
position appears to be soften-
ing; now that there are signs
that the Palestinians might,
after all, be prepared to settle
for something less than
everything, three questions
dominate the minds of both
Israelis and Palestinians:
Can the Palestinians con-
vince the Israelis, after years
of violent rhetoric and acts of
brutality, that they can be
trusted to be good neighbors?
Is there sufficient resilience
in the Israeli body politic to
accept the challenge and take
a chance for peace?
And if the two sides can,
after all, come to terms, will
the Syrians and the Jorda-
nians — both of which have
conflicting vested interest in
the future of the territories -
allow the Israelis and Palesti-
nians to strike a deal which
they both so desperately
need?

ed to name the congregations
or give the purchase price of
the West Bloomfield land.
B'nai Moshe's board and
its advisory council of past
presidents approved the pur-
chase without dissent, Roth
said, "and in talking to the
congregation at large, people
see it as a necessary move.
But we'll see (how the vote
goes) at the meeting."
The synagogue's member-
ship has declined from a peak
of 700-800 families 10-15
years ago to less than 500
families today. Congregation
officials say the decline has
"somewhat accelerated" in
recent years.
United Hebrew Schools
closed its branch at B'nai
Moshe at the end of the school
year in June, citing declining
enrollment and budgetary
constraints. Enrollment was
at 62 students, with only a
few children of B'nai Moshe
members. Other non-
Orthodox schools in the area
either have maintained
enrollment (Congregation
Beth Shalom) or grown (Tem-
ple Emanu-El).
B'nai Moshe is opening a
nursery school next month in
two rooms in its school wing.
Seventeen youngsters have
enrolled in the regular pro-

gram, and five have enrolled
in a special program for
2-year-olds. The facility has a
limit of 18 youngsters at any
one time.
Rabbi
Allan
S.
Meyerowitz has spearheaded
the formation of the new
nursery school, but also sup-
ports the congregation's move
to West Bloomfield. Spiritual
leader of B'nai Moshe for the
last year, Rabbi Meyerowitz
said a move "shows that the
congregation is committed to
the future and will continue
to play a viable role in the
Detroit Jewish community."
