Terrorist Group Head
Arrested In Peru
Buenos Aires (JTA) — The
Jewish community of Peru is
relieved at the arrest of
Abimael Guzman Reynoso,
leader of the notorious Shin-
ing Path terrorist group.
"Jews were not singled out
as such," a Jewish spokes-
man said. "But they suffered
from terrorism like everyone
else."
Mr. Guzman, who remain-
ed at large for 12 years, was
apprehended Sept. 12 in
Lima by Peruvian intel-
ligence police.
Peruvian President Alber-
to Fujimori said Mr. Guz-
man would be tried by a
military tribunal for
treason. He anticipated that
the terrorist leader would
receive a life sentence
without possibility of parole.
Despite his capture, the
country is still troubled by
terrorist attacks. Members
of his group, called Sendero
Luminoso in Spanish, set off
a bomb three days later after
his arrest the Pan American
Highway, north of Lima.
Under the impact of Peru's
terrorist disturbances, the
number of Jews in Peru had
dwindled in recent years
from 5,000 to 3,000, said
Eduardo Bigio, president of
the Third World Commis-
sion of the World Jewish
Congress.
Mr. Bigio said Peruvians
are hoping for peace after
more than 12 years of terror-
ism that took at least 25,000
lives.
But concern remains over
the Tupac Amaru, a group
responsible for an estimated
15 percent of terrorist at-
tacks. Of the five violent
episodes involving Jews in
recent years, Tupac Amaru
was responsible for three:
the kidnapping for ransom of
Jews who were freed after
several months of captivity.
He said Arab terrorists
connected with the Abu
Nidal group are suspected of
the 1990 shooting attack of
Jacobo Hasson, secretary of
the Jewish Association of
Peru. Hasson subsequently
left Peru for Israel.
Three Abu Nidal members
were caught in Lima in 1988
with documents listing
prominent Jews, Jewish and
Israeli institutions and
American institutions. They
were freed after two years in
jail. It has been speculated
that the Abu Nidal members
made contact with Peruvian
terrorists while they were in
prison.
The Abu Nidal terrorists
were quietly freed, and it is
believed they left the coun-
try.
In the most recent terrorist
incident in Peru, a bombing
attack took place at the Jew-
ish-owned Channel 2 televi-
sion station, but that had to
do with Peruvian politics
"and did not have anti-
Semitic overtones," Mr.
Bigio said.
About 800 Jews have im-
migrated to Israel. Many of
the remainder have settled
in Miami, while others have
dispersed to Los Angeles,
Canada, Venezuela and
Chile, Mr. Bigio said.
Most Jews live in the capi-
tal city of Lima.
Three-quarters of the
community are of European
descent; 10 percent are
descendants of German-
speaking immigrants who
arrived in Peru in 1870,
mostly from Alsace; and 15
percent are of North African
origin.
Anti-Semitism is not a na-
tive product but rather an
import, a recent study says.
Western Europe, the Arab
countries and former com-
munist states are the source
of the imports, says the
study by Leon Trahtemberg,
director of the Leon Pinelo
School, where 90 percent of
Lima's Jewish children
study.
A
thoughtful way

your parents'
future.

One out
of four
seniors
will require
nursing home care
after reaching age 55. Many
people believe Medicare will
cover this cost. The fact is,
Medicare pays only 2". of nursing
home costs.
Our independent insurance
agency is helping many families
solve this problem with long
term care coverage from one
of the major insurance compa-
nies we represent. The CNA
Insurance Companies offer a
Convalescent Care Plan that is
excellent for its flexibility, bene-
fits and competitive premiums.

Israeli Arabs
Meet Hussein
Jerusalem (JTA) — A
delegation of seven Israeli
Arabs will go to Jordan to
convey greetings to King
Hussein, who is recovering
from kidney surgery he re-
cently had in the United
States.
The visit is unusual, in
that ordinarily, Israeli
citizens are not permitted to
travel to Jordan.
But it is not without
precedent. Fifteen years ago,
missions of Israeli Arabs
went to Amman to convey
condolences to the king on
the death of his wife, Queen
Alia. Others were invited on
an individual basis, to at-
tend ceremonies such as the
king's birthday or anniver-
saries of his rise to the
throne.
The seven who are making
the current visit are Ibrahim
Nimer Hussein, chairman of
the Arab Local Councils
Committee, and four other
mayors, as well as two local
religious leaders.
During the coming week Yeshiva Beth Yehudah will
observe the yahrtzeits of the following departed friends,
with the traditional memorial prayer, recitation of kaddish
and studying of mishnayos.
