Black Caucus
Visits Israel
Jerusalem (JTA) — A dele-
gation of Congressional
Black Caucus members end-
ed an intensive five-day visit
here saying they felt better-
equipped to defend U.S. aid
to Israel.
Seven members of the
caucus joined the trip, which
was co- sponsored by the
caucus and the American
Israel Public Affairs Com-
mittee.
"It was a very important
trip because, while we knew
a great deal about Israel, we
had the opportunity to fill
the gaps and will com-
municate (what we learned)
to our constituents," said
U.S. Rep. Major Owens,
D-N.Y.
"This is a difficult year for
the budget, and there will be
a lot of controversy," he said,
"and we'll be in the middle
of it."
Mr. Owens made the com-
ments as the group left the
Prime Minister's Office
following its final meeting in
Israel prior to its departure.
He said Prime Minister
Yitzhak Rabin had conveyed
his strong commitment to
the peace process and the
fact that it is moving for-
ward at a rapid rate.
Mr. Owens said that dur-
ing the trip, which was filled
with briefings and site
visits, the group was given
"every reason" on a
"firsthand basis" for the
United States to "continue
support for Israel, uninter-
rupted."
Among those accompany-
ing the caucus delegation
was Bernice Manocherian, a
national vice president of
AIPAC from New York, who
initiated the trip because
she believed it was
"extremely important."
"There is a great deal of
polarization between Jews
and blacks in the United
States, and we felt it was an
opportunity" to build
bridges, she said.
Ms. Manocherian said she
believed that was ac-
complished, in part because
of the exposure the visitors
got to the myriad programs
to help absorb Ethiopian
immigrants.
Rep. Bennie Thompson, D-
Miss., said he found the trip
"very enlightening." He
said he will take back with
him a much clearer sense of
where the peace talks are
headed, as well as of the
"points of contention in the
region."
