Essay Contest
Awards A Trip

The University Student Depart-
ment of the World Zionist Orga-
nization and the Aliyah Program
Center are sponsoring an essay
contest where the first prize is a
free round-trip ticket to Israel.
The following is the quote upon
which the essay should be based
along with the qualifying ques-
tions.
"Together, we should not let
the land flowing with milk and
honey become a land flowing
with blood and tears. Don't let it
happen. Hall the partners to the
peacemaking do not unite
against the evil angels of death
by terrorism, all that will remain
of this ceremony are color snap-
shots, empty mementos. Rivers
of hatred will overflow again-and
swamp the Middle East. We,
gentlemen, will not permit ter-
rorism to defeat peace. We will
not allow it. If we do not have
partners in this bitter, difficult
war, we will fight it alone. We
know how to fight, and we know
how to win." — Yitzhak Rabin
Reading this speech very care-
fully and reflecting on the polit-
ical history of Israel since the
signing of Oslo I, what do you feel
that you, as a member of the
American Jewish community,
and especially as a member of
the Jewish student community,
can do to turn Mr. Rabin's speech
from words into actions?
The contest is open to univer-
sity students only. Length of es-
says must be two to three pages,
double spaced. All entries must
be received by March 1, 1996.
Round trip tickets are based on
N.Y.-Tel Aviv-N.Y.
Send all entries to USD, 110
East 59th St. 3rd Fl, NY, NY

Jihad Leader
In Paraguay

Buenos Aires (JTA) — Par-
guayan police confirmed that a
leader of the militant funda-
mentalist Islamic Jihad move-
ment is at large in Ciudad del
Este, the southeastern Para-
guayan border town renowned
as a smuggling center.
According to the Paraguayan
newspaper ABC, Aiman Ez Za-
wahri is under the protection of
"dormant cells" of Islamic Jihad
in Ciudad del Este and is "be-
yond the reach of local police."
Mr. Zawahri was a political
refugee in Switzerland until he
disappeared in late 1995.
At the time, the Egyptian
newspaper Al Dostur reported
that the Islamic terrorist left
Europe for South America.
Mr. Zawahri is charged with
the 1993 attempted murder of
Egyptian Minister Hassan
Al-Alfi.
According to the Paraguayan
police, Mr. Zawahri entered
South America via Brazil and
soon moved to Ciudad del Este,
which borders on Argentina and
Brazil and is visited daily by
40,000 people, who can cross the
international border just by
walking over a bridge.
