Special Eye Care For

New Israeli
Settlements
Bashed

The sudden rush of new
settlements in the West
Bank, especially for in-
coming Soviet Jews, has
raised the ire of the Bush
White House and much of
the press. One of the more
caustic commentaries on the
new settlements came from
the Buffalo News' editorial
cartoonist who goes under
the single name of Toles.
One panel depicts a pre-fab
home being lowered by a
crane in the West Bank.
Next, the crane lowers two
"new settlers." Finally, a
sign is lowered announcing a
new name for the West Bank
— "New Northern Ireland."
In the Washington Post,
Jerusalem correspondent
Jackson Diehl investigated
the "startling contradiction
between word and deed"
—despite its "repeated
promises" to the Bush Ad-
ministration not to do so,
Israel was building new
housing for Soviet immi-
grants in the occupied ter-
ritories. Mr. Diehl attributes
the discrepancy to Ariel
Sharon, the housing minister
and minister in charge of
Soviet immigrants.
Mr. Sharon, writes Mr.
Diehl, "has made it clear
that he intends to build .. .
thousands of new homes
unless forcibly stopped."
An official close to Prime
Minister Yitzhak Shamir
told the Post, "Sharon is try-
ing to embarrass Shamir
and provoke him into a con-
frontation on very un-
favorable terms."

Vidal Knocks
Monotheism

Gore Vidal's unbridled en-
thusiasm for the Palestin-
ians and his haughty
criticism of Israel has often
infuriated Jews. But in a
conversation between him
and Norman Mailer in the
current Esquire, Mr. Vidal
uniquely distributes his fury
among the West's three
major religions.
"Monotheism . . ."
declares Vidal, "is perhaps
the most evil form of
religion .
"The essential absence of
religion that has characteriz-
ed the American state, for my
money, has been a good thing
. . . Monotheism has given us
Judaism, Christianity and
Islam. They are by nature
totalitarian — one god, one
ruler, one people. 'Kill, kill,
kill for Jesus,' as the
Cromwellians shouted."
