Jewish Settlers Leave
The Christian Quarter
Jerusalem (JTA) — Jews
who have been occupying a
complex of buildings in the
Christian Quarter of
Jerusalem's Old City have
complied with a court order
to evacuate all but 20 of
their number from the four-
building complex owned by
the Greek Orthodox Church.
"With respect for the
Supreme Court's decision —
and in the spirit of the deci-
sion — 20 people are left in-
side, and they've got the
keys," Shmuel Evyatar, a
representative of the 150
Jewish activists told The
New York Times. A lawyer
for the Greek Orthodox
Patriarchate inspected the
premises on Tuesday and
confirmed that.
Israel's High Court of
Justice ordered the May 1
evacuation on April 26
against the Jewish settlers
who set off a firestorm of
protests when they moved
into St. John's Hospice dur-
ing the holy days just before
Easter.
The activists, many of
them students at the Ateret
Cohanim and Mercaz Harav
yeshivot, were ordered out
pending a lower court's nil-
ing on the validity of their
lease, which they obtained
through SBS, a Panama-
nian-registered company.
The lease has been chal-
lenged by the Greek Ortho-
dox Church.
The justices, nevertheless,
allowed up to 20 represent-
atives of the company to stay
on for "maintenance and
security" purposes.
While the controversy over
the settlers move into
Jerusalem's Christian
Quarter has simmered
down, it has not died.
The Greek Church does
not recognize the Jewish
group as its tenants. It
maintains that the lease was
fraudulently obtained from
the legitimate tenant, an
Armenian businessman who
was paid $3.5 million, about
half of it supplied clandes-
tinely by the Likud govern-
ment.
The Jews made no secret
that their intention was to
establish a Jewish presence
in the Christian Quarter of
the Old City, which tradi-
tionally has been segregated
according to religious faiths.
The move drew worldwide
condemnation, even from
friends of Israel and from
many Jews here and abroad
who considered it needlessly
provocative.
But defiance of world opi-
nion and a drive to plant
Jewish settlements in
disputed areas apparently is
considered politically advan-
tageous by the Likud
caretaker regime, which is
courting the right-wing and
the ultra-Orthodox parties to
form a new governing coali-
tion.
The impetus for Likud's
settlement drive is credited
to Michael Dekel, an activist
recently appointed adviser
to the prime minister. With
no dovish coalition partner
to keep the settlement drive
in check, Likud has given
Dekel a free hand.
The settlement issue is
high on the agenda of
Likud's coalition talks with
the far right. An understan-
ding is believed to have been
reached that a Likud-led
regime will proceed immedi-
ately with 14 new set-
tlements, approved by the
former Likud-Labor coali-
tion but never built.
They include one to be
called Tirza, which was
vetoed by former Defense
Minister Yitzhak Rabin, a
Laborite, because of its prox-
imity to Nablus — the
largest Arab city in the West
bank and a focal point of the
28-month-old Palestinian
uprising.
Lithuania's Role
Under Scrutiny
Jerusalem (JTA) . Israelis
of Lithuanian origin are
demanding that Lithuania
acknowledge its role during
the Holocaust before it asks
world support for its declara-
tion of independence from
the Soviet Union.
The Lithuanian govern-
ment, headed by President
Vytautas Landsbergis, has
not spoken publicly of col-
laboration between Lithua-
nians and the Nazis during
World War II.
Lithuania is trying to
rewrite Lithuanian history
of that era, according to Dr.
Abba Gefen, chairman of the
Organization of Israelis of
Lithuanian Origin.
He said it was "most seri-
ous, especially now, when
even the East German
government has accepted
their responsibility for the
Nazi crimes and have asked
forgiveness from the Jewish
people and Israel."
The organization is pro-
testing specifically against
turning the site of Holocaust
atrocities in Kovno (Kaunas)
