Britain, but I'm not alarm-
ed."
According to an official at
the Board of Deputies who
deals with anti-Semitism on
a daily basis, there are "a
couple of hundred" incidents
a year, ranging from casual
insults to hate mail and
obscene phone calls. Acts of
personal violence, he says,
are "few and far between."
British anti-Semitism, he
says, is a function of world
trends in general and events
in Israel in particular. For
20 years after the Second
World War, anti-Semitism
was relatively dormant, but
it began to re-emerge after
the 1967 Six Day War.
Following Israel's invasion
of Lebanon in 1982 and its
handling of the Palestinian
uprising since 1987, anti-
Semitism became far more
open, unapologetic and ag-
gressive. He expects the in-
cidence to rise still higher as
a result of the current inter-
national climate.
Until relatively recently,
anti-Semitic manifestations
in Britain were regarded as
the work of the lunatic fr-
inges — the extreme right,
the extreme left and Moslem
fundamentalists —although
it is now conceded that anti-
Semitism has now entered
mainstream British society.
Jewish leaders believe
that anti-Semitism was
given a free ride by the un-
popularity of former British
Prime Minister Margaret
Thatcher, who expressed her
open admiration of what she
perceived to be the family-
centered, socially conscious,
self-reliant qualities of
British Jews.
This was reinforced by the
relatively large number of
Jewish politicians — Mr.
Nigel Lawson, Sir Leon
Brittan, Sir Keith Joseph,
Lord Young, Mr. Malcolm
Rifkin — who were closely
associated with Thatcherism
and who achieved national
prominence in her cabinets.
In addition, Lord
Jakobovits, the Chief Rabbi
of Britain and the Com-
monwealth, who preaches a
philosophy of "pulling
yourself up by your own
bootstraps," was widely re-
ferred to as Mrs. Thatcher's
spiritual mentor.
The most serious long-
term threat to the Jewish
community, however, is like-
ly to come from radical
elements within Britain's 2
million-strong Moslem
community who are con-
vinced that Salman Rushdie,
author of the controversial
novel, The Satanic Verses, is
part of an international Jew-
ew-
ish conspiracy to undermine
Islam.
Following a recent demon-
stration in the town of
Luton, a burning effigy of
Rushdie was placed against
the door of the town's syn-
agogue, the third such at-
tack on the building.
Jewish leaders privately
express their regret at the
failure of the churches to
speak out forcefully against
anti-Semitism, although a
leading ecumenical journal,
The Tablet, recently warned
its readers of "the poison of
anti-Semitism."
"Only 50 years after the
genocide of the Jewish peo-
ple, it is widely assumed
that the disease of anti-
Semitism has finally been
eradicated in civilized coun-
tries," noted the journal. "It
is precisely on that comfor-
table assumption that the
danger lies." [1]

19,000-Year-Old
Skeleton Found
Tiberias (JPFS) — Ar-
cheologists have discovered
a skeleton dating back at
least 19,000 years on the
shore of Lake Kinneret, not
far from the cemetery of
Moshavat Kinneret.
The remains, uncovered by
Danny Naddel of the Anti-
quities Authority, were
carefully removed from their
shallow grave Nov. 8.
Mr. Naddel told reporters
at the scene that the body
had been buried in the fetal
position, in which the feet
are drawn up towards the
head.
The skeleton is thought to
have been that of a "mature
person," although Mr.
Naddel said they were un-
sure whether it was that of a
man or a woman. It is to be
given a detailed an-
thropological examination
by Tel Aviv University.
Mr. Naddel said the tests
would add to the knowledge
of the way of life of the
prehistoric inhabitants of
the area. Tests on the bones'
mineral contents could give
scientists a clearer picture of
the diseases prevalent at the
time, as well as the diet.
Antiquities Authority
spokeswoman Efrat Brown
said the discovery was of
prime historic importance.
"So far only one other
skeleton from this period has
been found in the region,
near Kibbutz Ein Gev."
The discovery was made at
the site of a village which
carbon 14 tests have dated to
19,000 years ago.
