Ignatz Bubis, president of Germany's Jewish commun- ity, and Jean Kahn, who serves the same role in France, spoke to the repre- sentatives of about two dozen Jewish groups who gathered here at the invita- tion of the World Jewish Congress. "The government has woken up" to the danger of the violence "and is now go- ing strong," said Mr. Bubis. "If it continues, the violence will go down." When asked what North American Jews can do to help, he said, "I can only ask world Jewry to wait, and watch what's going on." Mr. Bubis seemed relieved that his government has ap- The number of incidents in Saxony dropped by two-thirds in the space of just two weeks. in Orchard Mall SIDEWALK SALE JAN. 7th, 8th & 9th Germans, French Offer A Briefing Find It All In The Jewish News Classifieds Call 354-5959 parently reconsidered its failed strategy against the wave of xenophobic violence and is now cracking down harder on the perpetrators. In recent weeks, govern- ment ministers and spokes- men have admitted that combatting the violence and racist and anti-Semitic pro- paganda requires more wholehearted use of existing punitive laws. To date, most of the government's efforts have been geared toward chang- ing Germany's asylum law, which is one of the most lib- eral in the world and is embedded in post-war Ger- many's constitution and consciousness. Mr. Bubis urged Chancellor Helmut Kohl and other politicians to max- imize their efforts against the neo-Nazis and skinheads. "I don't need new laws (against such crimes) if the old laws are not fully used," Mr. Bubis said. As evidence of the impact of the government's new ap- proach, he cited the fact that there were 50 percent fewer racial incidents in November than in October nationwide. Mr. Bubis also pointed to recent changes in the east- ern German state of Saxony, where the interior minister has taken swift legal action against those committing racist acts by utilizing the laws already in place. As a result, the number of incidents in Saxony dropped by two-thirds in the space of just two weeks, Mr. Bubis said. Nationwide, there were 2,184 neo-Nazi attacks perpetrated against for- eigners and refugees bet- ween Jan. 1 and Dec. 13, 1992, according to new in- formation provided by Ger- many's version of the Fed- eral Bureau of Investigation, called the Office for the Pro- tection of the Constitution. The nearly 2,200 attacks resulted in 17 deaths and 542 injuries. More than one- third of the attacks — 886 — involved arson and bomb- ings. 77 Jewish sites were desecrated during 1992, as well. The previous year, 1991, the agency registered 1,489 acts of violence by neo-Nazis, 1,255 of them directed against foreigners. In 1990, there were just 270 attacks. Mr. Bubis also spoke of be- ing relieved that the people of Germany have in recent weeks begun to demonstrate their opposition to racism by holding demonstrations and N N vigils around the country. Michael Lerner, editor of Tikkun magazine, asked Mr. Bubis if he was interested in having Jews from around the world rally in Germany against the violence. "I want Germans to dem- onstrate, not Jews," re- sponded Mr. Bubis. In his own presentation, Jean Kahn, who also heads the European Jewish Con- gress, said that EJC repre- sentatives met with mem- bers of the European Parliament in Strasbourg, France last week and pro- posed a four-point plan. The first point is a "harmonization of all anti- racist laws in Europe," br- inging each European coun- try's laws in line with the others, said Mr. Kahn. N N [-<
