FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 8, 1991
New York (JTA) — Under
the banner of "Peace for
Peace: Emergency Coalition
Against Unilateral Israeli
Concessions," over a dozen
right-wing pro-Israel groups
have come out in support of
Israeli Prime Minister
Shamir's demand for peace
without territorial com-
promise.
"If Arabs in the Middle
East love their children,
they have to respond to
Israel with genuine, uncon-
ditional peace," William
Rapfogel said at a news con-
ference announcing the co-
alition's formation.
Once the state of war and
violence between Israel and
its neighbors has ended, the
rest of the issues can be
negotiated, said Rapfogel,
who is director of the In-
stitute of Public Affairs of
the Union of Orthodox Jew-
ish Congregations of
America.
"Peace for peace is such a
simple concept, but it has
been lost apparently in the
diplomatic shuttle," said
Howard Weber, one of the
organizers of the coalition.
Mr. Weber claimed that
groups in the coalition speak
for the majority of American
Jewry. He noted that a re-
cent American Jewish
Committee poll found
American Jews rejecting the
trade of land for peace by a
45-27 percent margin.
Speakers at the news con-
ference warned that Ameri-
can Jews soon will have to
fight U.S. pressure on Israel
of a sort not seen in many
years.
"Mr. President, read my
lips: Stop bashing Israel,"
said Sister Rose Thering of
the National Christian
Leadership Conference for
Israel and the National
Council of American Nuns.
The most prominent coali-
tion members are several
Orthodox organizations. In
addition to the Orthodox
Union, they include the Na-
tional Council of Young.
Israel, the Rabbinical Coun-
cil of America, Emunah
Women and the Bnei Akiva
youth group.
Also supporting the coali-
tion are Americans for a
Safe Israel, Jordan is
Palestine Inc., TechiyafUSA,
Betar-Tagar, the Manhattan
region of the Zionist Organ-
ization of America, the Co-
alition for Israel, the Jewish
Political Caucus, the Society
of Jewish Public Health
Workers and the Council of
Jewish Organizations in
Civil Service.
The group also received
messages of support from the
Toronto Zionist Council, the
Canadian Holocaust Re-
membrance Association and
the Montana Association of
Jewish Communities.
On the opposite end of the
political spectrum, 17
prominent American Jews
called upon Mr. Shamir to
compromise, to oppose new
settlements and support
land for peace.
In a statement organized
by the International Center
for Peace in the Middle East,
they also called on the Pales-
tinians and other Arabs to
"clearly reaffirm their will-
ingness to live in peace with
the State of Israel."
Signatories included au-
thors Saul Bellow, E.L. Doc-
torow, Chaim Potok, Irving
Howe, Alfred Kazin and
Philip Roth; Nobel laureates
Kenneth Arrow, Joshua
Lederberg and Arthur
Kornberg; Martin Peretz,
editor in chief of the New
Republic; Henry Rosovsky,
former dean of arts, Harvard
University; political scien-
tist Michael Walzer of
Princeton's Institute for Ad-
vanced Study; Rabbi Arthur
Hertzberg, former president
of the American Jewish
Congress; Philip Klutznick,
former president of the
World Jewish Congress; and
Rabbi Alexander Schindler,
president of the Union of
American Hebrew Con-
gregations.
IDF, SLA
Shell Lebanon
Tel Aviv (JTA) — Israel
and its allies in southern
Lebanon are continuing to
shell Shi'ite villages
suspected of sheltering Hez-
bollah guerrillas, according
to the United Nations
Interim Force in Lebanon.
But the shelling last week
was less intense, the UNIFIL
sources said.
The targets were mainly
villages north of the
southern Lebanon security
zone which is patrolled by
the IDF and SLA.
Reports said Israel had
ceased shelling guerrilla
positions in southern Leb-
anon because of pressure
from the United States.
Washington was said to be
concerned that increased
Israeli military activity
could upset the Middle East
peace conference.
