BRAND NEW 1994 VOYAGER

Stunned by last week's blast, Argentina's Jews try to
get on with their lives.

VICTORIA VERLICHAK SPECIAL TO THE JEWISH NEWS

mid continuing grief and
shock over the bomb ex-
plosion that claimed at
least 100 lives and de-
stroyed its central headquarters.
the local Jewish community here
was determined to pick up the
pieces and move on.
On July 18, the same day the
explosion blew up the building
housing the headquarters of
Argentina's most prominent Jew-
ish organizations, new offices in
a neighboring community center
began providing continued ser-
vices to the Jewish community.
Alberto Crupnicoff, president
of AMIA, the community's 100-
year-old social service agency,
said that although its home had
been destroyed, the Jewish Ke-
hilla has its doors open in a new
location so "our grandchildren
can celebrate AMIA's 200th an-
niversary."
Nevertheless, the community
was left reeling after the bomb al-
most completely leveled the sev-
en-story building as employees
were arriving for -work just before
10 a.m. About 100 people were
inside the building at the time.
"There is awful consternation
and enormous confusion," said
representatives of the Latin

American Jewish Congress,
which is headquartered in
Buenos Aires.
Besides those killed, at least
127 people were injured in he
attack, including passersby. Sev-
enty people were still un-
accounted for as of late the
following day.
The death toll was expected to
rise as workers sifted through the
rubble. Among those killed were
two police officers who had been
stationed in a car outside the
building as a security measure.
The blast echoed the one that
demolished the Israeli Embassy
in Buenos Aires in March 1992.
No one was ever tried for that at-
tack, which killed 30 and injured
250. At the time of that bombing,
the Islamic Jihad in Beirut issued
a statement claiming responsi-
bility.
In this latest attack, a group
calling itself Islamic Command
called a local radio station to take
responsibility.
Two foreigners were report-
edly arrested in connection with
the attack as they were trying to
leave the country. They were
later released. Government offi-
cials on Tuesday said that a third
foreigner, an Iraqi, was still being
