Labor's Failure Blamed
On Rebbe Schneerson
New York (JTA) — Rabbi
Menachem Schneerson, the
88-year-old spiritual leader
of the Chabad-Lubavitch
movement, has come under
fire from American Jewish
organizational leaders and
the Israeli press for alleged-
ly meddling in internal
Israeli politics.
But Schneerson's spokes-
man, Rabbi Yehuda Krin-
sky, claimed the Brooklyn-
based Chasidic rebbe is
"apolitical" and was not
directly responsible for the
refusal last week of two
ultra- Orthodox Knesset
members to join fellow
members of the Agudat
Yisrael party in forming a
coalition with the Labor
Party.
The two defectors from
Agudat Yisrael, Avraham
Verdiger and Eliezer
Mizrachi, effectively blocked
Labor Party leader Shimon
Peres from forming a
government by denying him
the votes he needed to win a
parliamentary motion of
confidence.
Krinsky denied reports
that Schneerson had tele-
phoned his disciples and in-
structed them to take such
action.
Krinsky said Verdiger had
called the Lubavitch head-
quarters in Brooklyn, asking
if the rebbe still opposed
ceding territory in a peace
agreement with the Arabs —
which the Labor Party
strongly advocates.
Schneerson's decades-long
position has been that Israel
should not surrender "one
inch" of territory. The
Lubavitcher rebbe's stance
is at odds not only with the
Labor Party but with some
of the most revered Torah
sages in Israel, who uphold
the primacy of saving lives
over territorial sovereignty.
Krinsky maintained that
the two Knesset members
chose to refuse to join with
Labor on their own.
Krinsky's version of
events conflicted with
reports on Israeli army
radio, which said there was
no question Mizrachi acted
on direct orders from
Schneerson. An angry edito-
rial in the mass-circulation
Israeli newspaper Yediot
Achronot said Israel's fate
now appears to lie "in the
hands of a rabbi who lives in
Brooklyn, who has never set
foot in Israel."
This sentiment was echoed
in comments by several
American Jewish leaders.
"Rabbi Schneerson, sitting
in his study in (Brooklyn's)
Eastern Parkway, decided
that Agudat Yisrael would
not participate in the pro-
posed government," Rabbi
Alexander Schindler said in
a statement.
Schindler, president of the
Reform movement's Union
of American Hebrew Con-
gregations, said, "One is
forced to ask: How can a re-
ligious leader in good cons-
cience reject the idea of mov-
ing toward peace when the
young men in his own
movement are exempted
from military service so they
can pursue their yeshiva
studies?"
Seymour Reich, chairman
of the Conference of Presi-
dents of Major American
Jewish Organizations,
refused to criticize the
Lubavitcher rebbe directly.
But he called it "reprehensi-
ble for anyone in the
diaspora to interfere with
the Israeli political system."
Two New Settlements
Open In The Territories
Jerusalem (JTA) — Set-
tlers in the West Bank and
Gaza Strip are taking ad-
vantage of the current polit-
ical vacuum to rush new set-
tlement projects to comple-
tion.
The settlers established
two new West Bank set-
tlements this week: Rehan 5,
in the northern Samaria re-
gion, and Ramat Gidron,
near Jerusalem. They are
the last of eight settlements
approved by the now defunct
Likud-Labor unity govern-
ment when it was formed in
1988.
Dugit, in the northern
Gaza Strip, already has a
population but no buildings.
Dugit was approved in
principle in 1982, but final
approval was granted only
last week by the Likud
caretaker government.
Labor resigned from the
national unity coalition on
March 13, and the govern-
ment fell two days later.
With only Likud in charge
until a new government is
formed, settlement ad-
vocates are rushing to con-
solidate what they can.
