Washington (JTA) — With
the crisis in Bosnia fading
from the front pages, Jewish
organizations are beginning
to recognize that providing
humanitarian assistance
and delivering food and
medical supplies may at this
point be the most they can
do.
A recent National Strate-
gies for Bosnia conference
brought together over 50
organizations that make up
the World Alliance for Hu-
manitarian Assistance for
Bosnia and the American
Task Force for Bosnia.
Jewish groups have long
been involved in the task
force, which has been lobby-
ing for political action and
public awareness.
These efforts have borne
little fruit, as the U.S.
government, the United
Nations and NATO coun-
tries have made at best
halfhearted attempts to stop
the violence or level the
playing field between Bosnia
and its neighbors.
Political efforts will con-
tinue, if only as "a moral
goad to the conscience of our
nation and the world not to
ignore the consequences of
inaction," said Rabbi David
Saperstein, director and
legal counsel of the Re-
ligious Action Center, the
social justice arm of the
Reform movement.
Branching out into hu-
manitarian aid is
"something that can be done
at a remedial level to help
the situation," said Rabbi
Saperstein, who added that
there is still little indication
that political efforts "are go-
ing to make a difference in
the short run."
The devastating lack of
humanitarian aid actually
getting in to Bosnia was a
recurring theme of an inter-
national conference on
Bosnia held recently in Lon-
don and sponsored by the
Bosnia- Herzegovina Infor-
mation Center and the
Friends of Bosnia Action
Group in Great Britain.
During the conference,
George Spectre, associate di-
rector of international,
governmental and Israel af-
fairs of B'nai B'rith, heard
repeated questions, even
direct accusations, about the
Jewish groups have
long been involved
in the task force.
incongruity between volun-
tary and government relief
efforts and the reality of
starvation on the ground in
Bosnia.
Mr. Spectre chalks up at
least a part of this situation
to a lack of financial com-
mitment to provide aid.
During a news conference
by action groups for Bosnia,
Mr. Spectre said,
"Humanitarian aid must be
provided on the scale and
with the urgency that the
United States provided on a
continuous, round-the-clock
basis to beleaguered Berlin
in 1948 when the Soviets
tried to isolate that German
city."
But he repeatedly heard
