W
ashington observers
gave high marks to
Israeli Ambassador
Zalman Shoval, who par-
ticipated last week in the
urgent top-level diplomacy
that resulted in the un-
precedented decision to send
American Patriot missile
batteries and crews to Israel.
More importantly, Mr.
Shoval was praised for his
steady, effective presence in
endless television and radio
appearances since the bombs
and missiles started flying
in the Middle East.
"He's done exceptionally
well under very trying cir-
cumstances," said Jess
Hordes, Washington director
for the Anti-Defamation
League. "And that's a view
I've heard from a number of
people on Capitol Hill and in
the media. He's been dig-
nified and restrained; he's
done a very good job of rep-
resenting Israel to the
American people."
Zalman Shoval:
Gets good marks.

FRIDAY. JANUARY 25. 1991
Duke's recent defeat in his
challenge of incumbent Sen.
J. Bennett Johnston, Ms.
Rickey said, was in fact a
victory for the repackaged
hate-group leader because it
served to spread his message
of hate.
In case anybody needs to
be reminded about Mr.
Duke's ultimate ambitions,
Ms. Rickey pointed out that
he has created a new group
in Washington: Republican
Action for the- 90s.
David Duke:
Victory in defeat.
Duke's message was so suc-
cessful in Louisiana, and
why this should be of con-
cern to both political par-
ties."
"We think it's pretty clear
the group is promoting his
candidacy for the 1992 pres-
idential nomination," she
said. "I think people need to
be very aware that David
Duke is alive and well, and
still very ambitious."

The Persian Gulf may be
the story of the decade, but
some activists here are not
forgetting that David Duke
still casts a dark shadow on
the American scene.
This week, a leading anti-
Duke activist was in Wash-
ington for a round of
meetings designed to keep
attention focused on the
former Ku Klux Klan leader
— and on his expanding po-
litical ambitions.
"My basic message is that
we need to continue express-
ing our concern about David
Duke," said Elizabeth
Rickey, a longtime Repub-
lican activist and co-founder
of the Louisiana Coalition
Against Racism and Nazism.
"I'm trying to give people
here a rundown on why
Tom Neumann and B'nai
B'rith International are par-
ting company, the result of
differing visions about the
future of the financially
troubled Jewish communal
giant.
Last week, Mr. Neumann
announced his resignation
as B'nai B'rith's executive
vice president.
"I'm really excited about
the future," Mr. Neumann
said in an interview. "There
are a lot of things I've been
wanting to do in the area of
foreign affairs; I decided I'd
reached a point in my life
when I decided I had to do
it."
According to Washington
sources, Mr. Neumann is
currently considering de-
veloping a new public policy
think tank, with a focus on
the Middle East — possibly
in conjunction with the Jew-
ish Institute for National
Security Affairs (JINSA).
"I think when this Persian
Gulf situation is resolved,
we're going to be in for some
very difficult times in for-
eign relations, and in
U.S.-Israeli relations in par-
ticular," Mr. Neumann said.
"This is where I want to
focus my efforts."
Several sources close to the
big Jewish organization in-
dicated that the resignation
reflected a wide gap between
Mr. Neumann's assertive
style and the policies of
B'nai B'rith's new president,
Kent Schiner.
B'nai B'rith, according to
these sources, is turning in-

ward as it tries to cope with
a massive deficit.
Mr. Neumann was replaced
by Dr. Sidney Clearfield.
