Aloni's Challenge
Is To Alter Views
Washington (JTA) —
Enamored of the dangers
faced by Israelis, some
American Jews are unwill-
ing to envision the possibil-:
ity of Middle East peace, ac-
cording to Israeli Cabinet
member Shulamit Aloni.
"You (American Jews) are
in love with the danger we
live in," the outspoken Ms.
Aloni said in an interview
during a 10-day visit to the
United States.
"Some American Jews are
in love with the excitement
of danger and war," she said.
"They admired our generals
and colonels. I love them too,
but would rather they be in
parades than at war."
The controversial Ms.
Aloni heads the left-of-center
Meretz bloc, an important
junior coalition partner of
the Rabin government.
She serves as minister of
communications, arts,
science and technology in
the Rabin government.
Originally, she was Prime
Minister Yitzhak Rabin's
education minister. Ms.
Aloni was removed after her

frequent outbursts upset the
Orthodox community, espe-
cially the Shas party, also a
member of Mr. Rabin's coali-
tion.
Ms. Aloni advocated nego-
tiating with the Palestine
Liberation Organization
long before the Israeli
government ever con-
templated such a step.
In an interview with the
Jewish Telegraphic Agency,
Ms. Aloni repeatedly stress-
ed that American Jews
should seek Jewish continui-
ty through culture.
"Common efforts of de-
veloping modern Jewish
thinking, writing and
creativity is a new way, and
an important one, for Jewish
continuity, more than an-
other war," she said.
She urged American Jews
to channel their energies
into developing Israeli

cultural centers and Hebrew
studies programs here, and
into translating the works of
modern Israeli writers.
"Unfortunately, too many
American Jews are ready to
risk another war," she said.
"They are not prepared to
gear their minds toward
peace.
"Maybe they are in love
with our heroes," she con-
tinued. "I would advise them
to look for other heroes,"
such as Israeli writers and
artists.
"Jews in this country are
preaching Jewish values,
which are easier to develop
during peace, not by occupy-
ing other people," she com-
mented.
Ms. Aloni said she believes
there will be a Palestinian
state, in some sort of federa-
tion or confederation with
Jordan.
"But the question is not if
it will be a separate state,"
she added. "The question is
will (the Palestinians) gain
sovereignty as human be-
ings."
The most important ele-
ment of last September's
Israeli-PLO signing
ceremony was "mutual rec-
ognition," she said.
Once both sides recognize
each other, she said, one side
"cannot continue to ignore
the rights of the other people
for sovereignty."
Ms. Aloni spoke positively
of President Clinton's ap-
proach to the Middle East
peace process.
"He is not interfering; he
is not pressing, but he gives
the best help a friendly pres-
ident can give," she said of
Mr. Clinton.
