The change in plans is due to "heightened political ten- sions in the region during the past couple of weeks," said UNH President Lawrence DeNardis in a statement. "The safety of our faculty and students in the Middle East must be a primary con- cern. A delay will afford us more time to assess this issue and explore all possible options," he said. Security may have been one of DeNardis' concerns, but controversy — both local and international — has surrounded the proposed branch in the West Bank town of Elkana from its in- ception last fall. Critics of the campus, located 12 miles east of Tel Aviv, included the Ameri- c an- Ar a b Anti- Discrimination Committee, Peace Now, the New Jewish Agenda, the National Lawyers Guild, the Middle East Crisis Committee, the Middle East Network of United Methodists, mem- bers of the Israeli govern- ment and Birzeit University, a Palestinian campus in the West Bank that has been closed for nearly three of the last five years by the Israeli military. Joseph Dimow, the secre- tary of the New Haven chapter of the progressive New Jewish Agenda, ap- plauded UNH's decision to postpone the opening of the Elkana campus. Mr. Dimow has vigorously opposed the UNH plan on the grounds that it would negatively affect the ongo- ing Middle East peace talks. "Those negotiations are delicate enough without an- other irritation," he said in a recent interview. Mr. Dimow thinks the op- position has had "something to do with this decision" to postpone the opening. Craig Sumberg of Ameri- cans for Peace Now, an outspoken peace lobby in America and Israel, agreed that the opposition in both countries was a "significant factor in the university's decision" to postpone what he thought would be an "unnecessary disruption to the peace process." Jay Rubin, executive di- - rector of the Jewish Federa- tion of Greater New Haven; \ disagreed. The UNH branch in Elkana, which was set to open in February, would y have "no impact on the H peace process whatsoever," Mr. Rubin said. Opposition on thoso-- grounds is "a fantasy on the part of Arab-American organizations that are look- ing for issues," he added. He called Mr. DeNardis a well intentioned, good friend of the Jewish com-.,-/ munity" who has the "best interests of his university and doing good for the peoples of the region at heart." Robert Fishman, executive director of the Connecticut =, Jewish Community Rela- tions Council in West Hart- ford, added, "I can't believe " The plan could affect the Middle East peace talks. DeNardis would cave in to the opposition." In a December opinion piece in the New Haven`- \ Register, Sameer Hassan, president of the Connecticut chapter of the American- yl Arab Anti-Discrimination \ Committee, wrote that a UNH campus in Elkana would have "serious and far- -='\ reaching implications for the integrity of international law, the current Arab-Israeli peace talks, U.S. foreign policy and the future of the Palestinian people." Such a venture, he said, was in violation of Article 49 of the Fourth Geneva Con- vention, which explicitly forbids the construction of settlements in occupied ter- ritory. Israel's Labor-led Edu- cation Ministry also voiced objection to the plan. Accor- ding to a report in the New Haven Register,Education -; Ministry spokesman Ron Melamed said his office is looking into the possibility of overturning the decision of the previous Likud government, which approv- ed the Elkana campus.
