AMERICAN
CANCER
SOCIETY'

Battered Wives
Noted In Israel

Tel Aviv (JTA) — There are
more than 100,000 battered
wives in Israel, with one in
seven Israeli men physically
abusing his wife, according
to a Haifa University pro-
fessor.
And every fifth women in
the country is raped by her
husband at least once during
their marriage, says
sociology Professor Zvi
Eisikovits.
Professor Eisikovits, head
of the Domestic Abuse
Intervention and Research
Institute at Haifa Univer-
sity, made his comments at a
news conference here called
to underline the work of the
unit, which was established
in 1991 in an effort to com-
bine family therapy with
research.
The institute is sponsored
by the Women's League of
Israel.
The professor stressed that
wife-beating is a social prob-
lem of considerable propor-
tions and "not a private il-
lness of a few. It happens in
every socio-economic class,"
he said.
Professor Eisikovits noted
that there are several

reasons why people do not
want to know how many
women are battered.
Israeli society could not of
ford the cost of care if al(
wife-beaters were required
by law to have individual
therapy, he said. This was
one of the options con)
sidered, but later dropped, in
developing what was td
become the 1991 Law for tl-K1
Prevention of Family
Violence.
The law, as it stands)
allows a woman threatened
by her husband to request ari
order to remove him from
the home and also allows
welfare worker visiting
home to order police proteci
tion for the family.
But Professor Eisikovit
said the law is, nevertheless
weak and merely a corn
promise, since it does no
call for psychological an
emotional treatment for th
violent husband.
The Haifa institute is cur
rently the only one of it
kind in the country, bu
other similar units ar
planned for Nazareth
Kiryat Shmoneh, Ashkelon,
Holon and Jerusalem.

Court Dismisses
French Slander Suit

Paris (JTA) — A French
court has dismissed a
lawsuit brought by the right-
wing politician Jean-Marie
Le Pen against Jean Kahn,
head of CRIF, the umbrella
organization representing
French Jewry.
Mr. Le Pen had sued Mr.
Kahn for slander after Mr.
Kahn said that a speech
delivered by Mr. Le Pen last
August constituted "incite-
ment to racial hatred."
Mr. Le Pen, whose anti-
immigration National Front
party garnered a dramatic
13 percent of the vote during
nationwide parliamentary
elections, prompted Mr.
Kahn's remarks because of a
speech he made denouncing
the Maastricht Treaty for a
unified Europe.
"It is curious that the ones
in favor of erasing the
borders in Europe are the
same who want safe and rec-
ognized borders for Israel,"
Mr. Le Pen said, speaking in
his hometown of La Trinite
Sur Mer in Brittany.

Pointing to "obscure forces,
and lobbies permanently
warring against the y
nations," Mr. Le Pen lashed,
out against "the new world-,
order led by a cosmopolita.-(
and international oligari
chy."
Mr. Kahn criticized Mr. Le
Pen for his use of anti-
Semitic catch phrases, and
in the slander suit brought,
by Mr. Le Pen, a leading
French journalist and two
well-known historians
testified in Mr. Kahn's
favor.
The witnesses said Mr. Le
Pen was using an array ofl
code words clearly)
understood by his followers,
linking Israel and the Jews
to the "cosmopolitan and
international oligarchy" he
denounced.
The Paris court, while(
stating that Mr. Kahn's)
statement against Mr. Le\
Pen was indeed slanderous,

,

determined that Kahn was
pursuing a totally legiti-
mate aim.
