A Subscription To The Jewish News.
fierce lobbying by Jewish
groups, a strong push by
the Clinton administration
and the drama of the one-
year anniversary of the Okla-
homa City bombing were
apparently enough to produce a
congressional about-face on the
question of comprehensive anti-
terrorism legislation.
But this week's compromise
formula, crafted in a House-Sen-
ate conference committee, is un-
likely to satisfy some Jewish
groups that support the under-
lying goals of the legislation, but
reject a tacked-on provision lim-
iting the habeas corpus rights of
death row inmates.
This latest twist in the strange
odyssey of the anti-terror bill
came when Rep. Bob Barr, R-
Ga., author of an earlier com-
promise that he abruptly
abandoned in the face of strong
pressure from pro-gun groups,
joined with a number of Repub-
lican leaders to restore much of
what the House had stripped.
That includes provisions al-
lowing the administration to des-
ignate groups affiliated with
terrorist organizations and to
freeze the funds of those groups.
The bill will make it a crime to do-
nate money to or accept funds for
foreign terrorist groups, and it in-
cludes new procedures that will
make it easier to bar suspected
terrorists from this country.
The bill also contains contro-
versial provisions allowing the
government to conduct deporta-
tion hearings of suspected ter-
rorists and their allies using
secret evidence.
But provisions aimed at Amer-
ican terrorist groups like right-
wing "militias," a key element of
the original bill which was in-
troduced in the days after the Ok-
lahoma City bombing, were not
fully restored.
Rep. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y.,
termed it the "barely better than
nothing terrorism bill," and im-
mediately introduced a new mea-
sure aimed at restoring more of
the deleted provisions, especial-
ly those aimed at domestic terror
groups.
"It's sad that one year after the
Oklahoma City bombing this
Congress had to claw and
scratch its way to a mediocre
bill," he said.
The conference compromise,
which was announced at a Mon-
day news conference featuring
victims of the Oklahoma City
blast and families of Pan Am 103
victims, was good news for the
Anti-Defamation League, which
promoted the original legislation
and stuck with the bill even when
strong civil liberties concerns
emerged.
"We feel we got virtually every-
thing we were looking for that
was removed by the House," said
Jesse Hordes, ADL's Washing-
ton director. "This revised lan-
guage goes a long way to
restoring provisions that will
make this a serious instrument
in the fight against terrorism."
But other groups, including
the American Jewish Congress
and the American Jewish Corn-
mittee, remained concerned
about the habeas corpus provi-
sions.
Collusion Charges
Investigated
T
he Senate Banking Com-
mittee, under the auspices
of its pit-bull chairman,
Sen. Alfonse D'Amato, R-
N.Y., is about to sink its teeth
into the meaty issue of Swiss
banking — and, specifically, into
charges of collusion between
Swiss bankers and Nazi Ger-
many.
And the preliminary hearings,
scheduled for next week, may
shed some light on the question
of billions of dollars in Jewish as-
sets stashed in Swiss banks in
the frantic days before the Nazi
onslaught and never recovered.
Currently, the World Jewish
Congress is involved in troubled
negotiations with Swiss banks
and with the government in Bern
in an effort to help aging sur-
vivors of the Holocaust recover
long-lost assets.
The Swiss contend that only
$32 million can be traced to pre-
war Jewish accounts; Jewish
groups estimate that the num-
ber is well into the billions.
Swiss foot-dragging on the
question of restitution, congres-
sional sources say, may lead to a
wider enquiry into the role of
Swiss banks in laundering Nazi
plunder money.
Rep. D'Amato has scheduled
intensive hearings for early this
summer. Next week's prelimi-
