New York (JTA) — The convic-
tion of Rashid Baz for the mur-
der of Ari Halberstam and the
attempted murder of 14 other
Lubavitch boys has been greeted
with relief by those whose lives
were most touched by the vio-
lence, as well as by others in the
Jewish community.
The verdict "was a big relief,"
said Chana Kalmenson, the old-
er sister of Nachum Sosonkin,
who was seriously injured when
Mr. Baz opened fire on a van full
of LubaVitch teens traveling
across the Brooklyn Bridge on
March 1.
"We're not getting back what
we lost, and we don't have the
death penalty in New York, but
at least we're getting as much as
we can," she said.
Next to Halberstam, the 16-
year-old who was killed by Mr.
Baz's bullets, Sosonkin, 18, was
the most seriously wounded in
the attack. He still has a 9-mm
bullet lodged in his brain and is
undergoing medical tests related
to his brain damage.
After the verdict was an-
nounced Dec. 1, Mr. Halberstam's
father, Rabbi David Halberstam,
told New York Newsday that Mr.
Baz "has no remorse. His only re-
morse is that he didn't kill every
boy on that van."
Mr. Baz, a Lebanese immi-
grant who has said he was trau-
matized by his war-torn
childhood, could face up to 146
years in prison when he is sen-
tenced on Jan. 18.
Mr. Baz, 28, showed no emo-
tion in court as the verdicts were
read. He was also convicted of
weapons possession charges in
the shooting of the van full of
Lubavitch boys.
The boys had been returning
to Brooklyn after taking part in
a prayer vigil for the late Lubav-
itcher rebbe, Menachem Schneer-
son, who had just undergone eye
surgery in a Manhattan hospital.
Two Jordanian men, charged
with hindering prosecution and
with weapons possession, will be
tried separately next year.
According to Rabbi Shea
Hecht, a cousin of Ari Halber-
stam's mother, the guilty verdict
brought "a tremendous sigh of re-
lief and a tremendous thanks to
God" in the Lubavitch communi-
ty.
'We hope that the judge will
be very, very strict. Baz was suc-
cessful in killing one, but his in-
tention was to kill 15, and we
hope the judge is as strict with all
15 counts" as he is with the mur-
der conviction, said Rabbi Hecht,
who is also chairman of the board
of the Crown Heights-based Na-
tional Committee for the Fur-
therance of Jewish Education.
In other parts of the Jewish
community, the verdict was met
with similar reaction.
"Let this be a message that
bias crimes and acts of violence
motivated by racism and anti-
Semitism will not be tolerated
and will meet with swift and
harsh punishment," said Anita
Sher, director of the New York re-
gional office of the Anti-Defama-
tion League.
"The decision unfortunately
will not bring back Ari Halber-
stam, but we hope that it pro-
vides a small degree of peace and
consolation to his parents and the
community," she said.
Meanwhile, Mr. Sosonkin is
slowly recovering from his
wounds. He was recently released
from a Philadelphia rehabilita-
tion hospital and now lives with
his sister's family in the Crown
Heights section of Brooklyn,
where the Lubavitch movement
is headquartered.
The Israeli-born youth's par-
ents reside in Israel.
Ms. Kalmenson, who has five
children under the age of 8, takes
her brother to his doctors and
therapy appointments several
times a week, helps him with his
thrice-daily exercises and with
his eating.
Mr. Sosonkin still cannot swal-
low and must be tube-fed. Be-
cause his balance is also still
affected by the injury, he cannot
be left alone.
"We have our hands full, but
we thank God for all his miracles
and hope for more," said the 28-
year-old Ms. Kalmenson.

Jerusalem (JTA) — Gen. John
Shalikashvili, the chairman of
the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff, ar-
rived in Israel for talks with Is-
raeli army officers about possible
security arrangements should Is-
rael and Syria reach a peace
agreement.
Gen. Shalikashvili, who was
the guest of the outgoing Israel
Defense Force chief of staff, Lt.
Gen. Ehud Barak, told Israel
Television after he arrived that
"the purpose of my trip is to learn
as much as I can to understand
Israel better."
He and Lt. Gen. Barak met to
discuss security arrangements in
the Golan Heights — including
the possible deployment of Amer-
ican forces as part of a peace-
keeping mission there — that
would go into effect if Israel with-
draws from the area •
