FRIDAY, APRIL 27, 1990

n a lengthy "Letter from
Jerusalem" in The New
Yorker about the Israeli
political group, Peace Now,
Israeli journalist Amos Elon
notes that while the organ-
ization "has grown more
radical in recent years, it is
still not a protest movement
in the American mode at the
time of the Vietnam War."
Peace Now, writes Elon,
"opposes the government's
policies, but its activists
don't burn draft cards or na-
tional flags. They insist they
are patriots . . . "
Although "relatively low
numbers" of soldiers have
gone to jail for refusing to
serve in the West Bank and
Gaza, Elon reports that the
"real number of refuseniks
is widely thought to be much
higher." Referring to a re-
cent article in the Tel Aviv
newspaper, Yediot Ahronot,
Elon states that "for every
convicted refusenik, there
are 10 'gray refuseniks' who
avoid reserve duty in the
territories with the tacit
connivance of sympathetic

commanding officers. And
for every 'gray refusenik,'
the paper went on, there are
another 10 who manage the
same result by feigning il-
lness or going abroad for a
few days, to nearby Cyprus
or Egypt, when they expect
to be called up."
Elon cites an even more
sobering phenomenon:
"Twice as many recruits
killed themselves in 1989 as
in 1988."
Elon claims that Israel's
peace movement is being
"increasingly dominated by
women" who have pushed it
further "toward the radical
left". possibly because
"women's equality has been
one of the great myths of the
Israeli image-making in-
dustry."
Israeli peace groups face
two major problems, con-
cludes Elon: "How to suc-
ceed in preaching modera-
tion and compromise in the
heated atmosphere" that
has been generated by five
major wars and many bloody
skirmishes between Israel
and Arabs and Palestinians
and "the absence so far of
similar groupings in the
neighboring Arab states."

The Holocaust Museum
Debate Continues

In an excerpt last Sunday
in the New York Times
Magazine from her forthcom-
ing book, One, by One, by
One about how six nations
are remembering the Holo-
caust, Times reporter Judith
Miller recounts the behind-
the-scenes political maneu-
vers that created the Hobo-
caust Memorial Museum
now being built in Wash-
ington — and the many
criticisms that have been
made along the way of the

designs for the $147 million
museum and its exhibits.
Among these:
• Former Secretary of
State Henry Kissinger fears
the museum will foster "too
high a profile" for American
Jews and, by putting it on
national ground, may
"reignite anti-Semitism."
Kissinger prefers a museum
in New York that would
place the Holocaust in the
broader context of Jewish
history and culture.
