Church Urges
Aid Cutback
New York (JTA) — The
American Jewish Com-
mittee has sharply criticized
a resolution adopted last
week by the Episcopal Chur-
ch urging the United States
to withhold aid from Israel
equal to the amount
Jerusalem spends on Jewish
settlements in the ad-
ministered territories and
east Jerusalem.
The resolution, adopted
during the church's 70th
General Convention in
Phoenix, urges the U.S.
government to hold aid to
Israel in escrow in the same
amount that the Israeli
government spends "to
expand, develop or further
establish Israeli settlements
in the West Bank, Gaza, and
east Jerusalem."
It says the money should
be released from escrow only
"if proof is given that set-
tlements are not being es-
tablished."
Rabbi A. James Rudin, na-
tional interreligious affairs
director for the Jewish
human relations agency,
called the resolution
"regrettable," "stale" and
"one-sided." He pointed out
that it makes demands sole-
ly on Israel and not on the
Arab nations that have been
formally at war with the
Jewish state for 43 years.
Keegstra Must
Be Re-Tried
Toronto (JTA) — James
Keegstra, a/former high
school teacher in rural
Alberta, must stand trial
again for inciting hatred of
Jews, the Canadian
Supreme Court has ruled.
It dismissed without com-
ment his appeal against the
Alberta Appellate Court's
decision to retry him.
Keegstra, who taught in
Eckville, a village of 900,
and was its mayor, preached
to his 12th grade social
studies classes that the
Holocaust was a hoax and
Jews are behind all evil.
Brought to trial at the
complaints of parents, none
of them Jewish, he was con-
victed in 1985 of willfully
promoting hatred of an iden-
tifiable group, in violation of
Canada's anti-hate statute,
and was fined $5,000.
The conviction was over-
turned on a technicality by
the Alberta Appeals Court
in June 1988. But the same
court refused to dismiss the
charges.
In March, it ordered a new
trial for the 56-year-old
Keegstra.
