be a terrible battle," said Tom
Smerling, executive director of
Project Nishma, a group that
supports the peace process
while also focusing on Israel's
security needs. "A few settlers
in Golan have even hinted of
armed resistance."
The upcoming U.S. visit by
Likud leader Benyamin Ne-
tanyahu, the most visible crit-
ic of the Rabin government's
policies, is designed, in part,
to energize this country's vo-
cal minority of critics, accord-
ing to some Jewish activists.
Mr. Netanyahu maintains
that it would be a tragic mis-
take for Israel to give up ter-
ritory.
Still, most American Jews
remain committed to the peace
process— even if it includes
concessions of territory.
Polls suggest that American
Jews are largely in sync with
the policies of the Rabin gov-
ernment, according to Martin
Raffel, director of the Israel
Task Force of the National
Jewish Community Relations
Advisory Council (NJCRAC).
"There is a segment of the
community which I would
characterize as very skeptical
of Arab intentions, and there-
fore less prepared to show an
understanding of a compro-
mising Israel," he said. "But
I see it as a clear minority;
people in our community may
not be optimistic, but certain-
ly a clearcut majority support
Israel's participation, and hope
something good comes out of
it."
But as the prospect of terri-
torial concessions fans the de-
bate in Israel, he suggested,
the American Jewish commu-
nity will find itself increasingly
drawn into what is certain to
be a bitter and divisive
battle. 0

Washington (JTA) — The
Religious Freedom Restora-
tion Act, a bill that would
make it harder for govern-
ment to encroach on the free
exercise of religion, was
given a stamp of approval by
the Senate Judiciary Com-
mittee this week and sent to
the full Senate for considera-
tion.
The bill, supported by a
broad coalition of Jewish
and other religious groups,
is designed to circumvent a
1990 Supreme Court ruling
that gave states greater
leeway in outlawing certain
religious practices.
