REVISIONISTS page 5

subject to review of their edi-
torial and advertising content.
Municipalities and other pub-
lic institutions have boards and
commissions to review adver-
tising proposed for public prop-
erty. If it does not meet
"apolitical" criteria, it is reject-
ed.
Similarly, the Federal Com-
munications Commission regu-
lates the broadcast media
because they use the airwaves
— public property — and these
regulations are not violations of
free speech.
Consider this scenerio: A
Michigan university paper —
or any paper— runs an adver-
tisement that slavery did not oc-
cur.
It is highly unlikely that
black organizations would ar-
gue that the paper has a right
to publish such material.
It is more likely that blacks
would conduct press confer-
ences, protests and, if they did
not receive appropriate assur-
ance that the incident would not
happen again, work to close the
offending institution. And Jews
would probably join them in the
protest.
That is how it should be and

blacks are to be commended for
defending their history, race,
dignity and self-respect.
But public expression of anti-
Semitism is seldom challenged
with appropriate outrage, com-
mitment, protest, anger or de-
mands for accountability.
It is tiresome to read the ads
and then to listen to all the
"apologies" of why the "mistake"
occurred.
At the University of Michi-
gan, which, a few months ago
also published a Holocaust re-
visionist ad, editors maintained
that they had no knowledge
that the paper received the ad.
At MSU, editors apologized af-
ter the fact.
Throughout the country, ed-
itors are rationalizing their de-
cisions. A few had the courage
to take a stand and send the re-
visionists packing.
Meanwhile, the Jewish es-
tablishment sits on the side-
lines, espousing meaningless
and erroneous constitutional ar-
guments.
Somewhere the revisionists
are smiling to themselves while
they spread their hatred and
blasphemy.
It is sad indeed. ❑

Jewish Veteran
Talks Of Gulf Illness

Washington (JTA) — The
head of a Jewish veterans
group has told President
Clinton that the government
must work to find the cause
of strange illnesses that
have seriously disabled
many veterans of the Per-
sian Gulf War.
"The American govern-
ment must acknowledge and
seriously commit in working
to find a solution to what is
known as the 'Persian Gulf
War Syndrome,' " Edward
Blatt, the national com-
mander of Jewish War Vet-
erans, said at a Veterans
Day breakfast held at the
White House.
"The federal government
must not ignore the fact that
our troops were sickened by
Iraqi chemical and/or
biological agents," Mr. Blatt
said.
He called the unidentified
illness an "unknown
enemy."
Sources estimate that
several thousand American
troops have complained of
symptoms including
lethargy, confusion and skin
rashes since returning from
the war.

While a growing number
of veterans attribute the
syndrome to possible ex-
posure to chemical weapons,
the government has refused
to blame the illness on any
specific source.
"We believe that if Persian
Gulf veterans show any
symptoms" of the syndrome,
"then they should be treated
with no questions asked,"
said Michelle Spivak Kelley,
national director of com-
munications for the Jewish
War Veterans.
Between 3,000 and 7,000
Jewish soldiers fought in the
Gulf war, according to Ms.
Kelley.
JWV is concerned that the
government will not pay for
treating the soldiers' illness
because the symptoms have
not been definitely at-
tributed to any agent to
which the troops were ex-
posed, Ms. Kelley said.
JWV believes that the
costs of looking for a cure for
the illness should be shared
by Kuwait and Saudi
Arabia, since they agreed to
help pay for the war effort,
she said. ❑
