itzhak Rabin's grand-
daughter said she doesn't
talk about military policy
or political strategy. As a
soldier, she is forbidden. And like
her grandfather, gunned down
at a Nov. 4 peace rally, she
"hates" speculating about "ifs,"
like, would Mr. Rabin have re-
acted as Prime Minister Shimon
Peres has to rocket attacks from
the north?
Despite her protests, Noa Ben
Artzi-Pelossof, 19, told a crowd
of over 500 people in Warren on
Monday that she feels Israel is
justified in bombing Hezbollah
targets in Lebanon.
"If they think they can just
bomb the country and get out of
it, they're wrong," she said.
Her statement condemning
the terrorist attacks was the only
political view she shared at the
21st Author Luncheon sponsored
by the Library Cooperative of
Macomb and the Detroit Free
Press. Otherwise, Ms. Artzi-
Pelossof, author ofln The Name
of Sorrow and Hope, spoke of her
grandfather's feelings about Yas-
sir Arafat — "I never knew
whether Saba liked Arafat or
didn't like him, but (Arafat) was
making efforts to build a sane
and normal society" — and Mr.
Arafat's shiva visit to their home
following Yitzhak Rabin's as-
sassination. Disguised in a long
raincoat, a red scarf and thick
spectacles, he resembled a "Pol-
ish uncle," she said, sending a
ripple of chuckles through the
audience.
Ms. Artzi-Pelossof talked of
her rather "privileged" upbring-
ing and her 19-month army
stint, a job in the Tel Aviv office
y
of the Israeli army newspaper.
"I'm not on the front lines," she
admitted.
Yet, growing up as the grand-
daughter of Mr. Rabin means be-
ing "double careful about what
you do." Although they were dis-
creet, Ms. Artzi-Pelossofs body-
guards stood nearby during her
speech and book-signing.
She considered her grandfa-
ther to be a man of great kind-
ness and warmth. During the
writing of her book, she said, she
imagined him clad in a T-shirt,
newspaper propped on his lap, a
wry smile playing on his face.
"So, Noa, how's your book? Are
you giving away all my secrets?"
Maybe it's not such a big se-
cret that he derived a lot of plea-
sure from chocolate.
But the writing experience
was a journey for her, as well.
Ms. Artzi-Pelossof said it taught
her about Yitzhak Rabin the
statesman who, she said, be-
lieved peace was attained
through strength.
In fact, Ms. Artzi-Pelossof
said, her grandfather did not un-
dergo a transformation from
hawk to dove; he always believed
Israel could not negotiate peace
from any position but one of
strength.
Responding to a question
about the role of American youth
in the Middle East peace process,
Ms. Artzi-Pelossof said it was im-
portant to make oneself heard
above the din of "right-wing"
voices.
What she meant by "right
wing" was a question that lin-
gered for David Ungar of Oak
