Will Persian Gulf War
Revamp Entire Mideast?

ARTHUR J. MAGIDA

Special to The Jewish News

I

n his weekly column in
the Village Voice, James
Ridgeway summarizes a
no-holds barred scenario for
war in the Persian Gulf:

Israel, a "full and silent
partner" in an anti-Iraq in-
vasion since its conception,
fights alongside U.S. troops
with tanks and air support;
Syria first takes over Leb-
anon, then makes peace with
Israel; Israel expels up to
300,000 Palestinians into
Jordan, which then falls into
Palestinian hands, thus giv-
ing them their own state.

We believe you should be rewarded with
convenience. If you wish, we'll bring the
vehicle of your choice right to your door
for your personal inspection.

After the U.S. installs a
puppet government in
Baghdad, America controls
all the oil fields in Iraq,
Kuwait, Saudi Arabia and
the gulf sheikdoms.

Columnist Ridgeway ex-
plained that the scenario,
prepared by Francis Boyle, a
University of Illinois inter-
national law professor, has
"some credence." As the
Persian Gulf situation
"shifts constantly," said the
writer, "everything should
be considered."
And Mr. Boyle, who has
been a legal adviser to the
Palestine Liberation Organ-
ization, commented that any
combat between Israel and
Jordan and/or. Syria could
persuade Egypt to scrap its
peace treaty with Israel.
And, he said, if the U.S.
was embroiled in a war
against Iraq, especially if it
is being aided by Israel,
"America wouldn't care
about Israel expelling Pales-
tinians. And I can't imagine
how we could win a war
against Iraq without Israel's
help."

Widely vilified Rabbi Meir
Kahane may ultimately
receive the same veneration
accorded black separatist
Malcolm X, who was killed in
1965.
That's the hypothesis of
Colbert I. King. In an op-ed
in the Washington Post, Mr.
King, a member of the
paper's editorial page staff,
noted the respect now given
Malcolm X: the New York
City Opera has performed an
opera about him; a movie is
being filmed about him;
parks are named after him,
and Washington, D.C., has
designated a day in his
honor.
Like Rabbi Kahane, writes
Mr. King, Malcolm X
preached "pride, self-defense
and community empower-
ment." The rabbi's message
often "antagonize(d) and
embarrass(ed) Jews," the
same reaction many blacks
had to Malcolm X.
"But along the way,"
writes Mr. King, "Meir
Kahane helped force a ne-
glectful nation and world to
attend to the plight of Soviet
Jews. And through his hair-
trigger combativeness, he
sought to disabuse anti-
Semites of their false notion
that Jews are pushovers.
"Whether Kahane has left
a record to be pilloried and
quietly consigned to the
dump heap of history re-
mains to be seen. As farfet-

Rabbi Kahane:
Posthumous respect?

ched as it may seem today,
some thought Malcolm X
faced a similar fate at the
time of his assassination."

'GQ' Profiles

Jesse Jackson

Inside Jesse Jackson are
mountains of contradictions,
according to writer Michael
Kelly, who profiles the black
leader in GQ.
The two-time presidential
candidate, he writes, is "the
nation's leading scourge of
bigotry, but his career has
been stained by remarks of
seeming prejudice against
Jews, and his private con-
versation is notable still,
