J12 "The Store To Watch" s a5t3c 9. 1" 539-1181 World of Watches 431 (ClorOnerr eofhLaonredPLinel Inside CrosswindsMall Hours: Mon.-Wed. 10-6, Thurs. & Fri. 10-9, Sat. 10-6 ND IT L IN THE ANT Peace Now Joins Umbrella Group New York (JTA) — Ameri- cans for Peace Now was ac- cepted as a new member of the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations, culminating weeks of unprecedented lobbying on both sides of the issue. The closely watched vote, which came after two hours of late-afternoon debate, was 27-10, with eight absten- tions. Another two of the member groups present did not cast ballots. The Conference of Presi- dents also voted to grant full membership to the Council of Jewish Federations, which formerly had only observer status. For Peace Now, admission to organized American Jewry's premier umbrella grouping caps a meteoric rise to respectability from the dovish movement's more humble grass-roots origins. That process began last summer with the elevation of some of the movement's leaders in Israel to posts in the new Labor government. And in the United States, several of Peace Now's leaders are either members of the Clinton administra- tion or have considerable in- fluence with it. "This vote recognizes the American Jewish commun- ity's commitment to inclu- sion of all pro-Israel voices," Gail Pressberg, APN's pres- ident and chief executive of- ficer, said in a statement issued immediately after the vote. "We look forward to work- ing with our colleagues in the conference on issues of concern to Israel," added Letty Cottin Pogrebin, the group's chairperson. There was no immediate reaction from groups oppos- ing APN's admission. That campaign was led by the Zionist Organization of America, which had charged that APN's views were out- side the Jewish community's consensus. Paul Flacks, ZOA's ex- ecutive vice president, had argued prior to the vote that "for the Conference of Presi- dents to give legitimacy to an organization that has for a long time advocated" that the Palestine Liberation Organization is an accep- table negotiating partner for Israel would "undermine Israel's negotiating position and show a weakness of the community's support for Israel." But those supporting APN's entry, including the Anti- Defamation League and the American Jewish Congress, maintained that the Jewish community's umbrella should be wide enough to cover a group that strongly supports Israel and whose dovish positions are supported both in the government corridors in Jerusalem and a significant portion of American Jewish public opinion. Woman Survives Palestinian's Attack Tel Aviv (JTA) — A 36-year- old woman who warded off an attack by a Palestinian who tried to strangle her said from her hospital room that she survived by hitting her assailant with a metal garbage bin. Sophie Porat, a mother of four children, said she was attacked by a masked man as she took out the garbage from her quiet north Tel Aviv home. Mrs. Porat described what happened when she went down to put her trash in the ground-floor disposal bins. "Suddenly I heard a scream, `Allahu Akbar' (God is Great), and felt a man's hands around by neck, chok- ing me," she said. "I was born in Lebanon and speak fluent Arabic. I have often thought about what I would do if attacked by a terrorist and instinc- tively I managed to say in Arabic 'What are you doing? I am an Arab, not a Jew.' "But that had no effect, and I grabbed a metal gar- bage can and jabbed it at my assailant," she said. "He released his grip, and I rushed through a back door and knocked on my neighbor's door. She took me in and phoned the police and called an ambulance, - she said.
