lie. And as it grows, placing an
increasing burden on social and
municipal services, while bring-
ing less tax money into the city's
coffers, more and more secular
Jews are expected to leave.
As Ha'aretz columnist Yair
Sheleg puts its: "Does anyone
imagine that secular Jews
will remain in an Orthodox
Jerusalem even if they're allowed
to travel on its main streets on
Shabbat?"
Thus, for many, the action on
Bar-Ilan Street is one battle in
the campaign of psychological
warfare. And what is really at
stake is not just the social, eco-
nomic, or even religious charac-
ter of Jerusalem but ultimately
its political status.
Finally, Uzi Benziman, writ-
ing in Ha'aretz, hit the most sen-
sitive nerve in noting the paradox
that the same government which
seems bent on sharpening the
confrontation with the Arab
world over Jerusalem is simul-
taneously alienating secular Is-
raelis.
"Another concession to the
Haredim in Jerusalem and this
city will no longer interest the
mainstream of Israeli society,"
he writes. "And then," he adds
pointedly, "it will be easy to
reach agreement with the Arab
world on its status." ❑

Jerusalem" on Bar-Ilan Street
last Saturday night. "Give them
one street and they want a sec-
ond and a third. Give them the
entire neighborhood and they
want the whole country!"
Such rhetoric has been de-
nounced as demagoguery not just
by Haredi leaders but by some
members of the secular commu-
nity.
Nevertheless, some Haredi
spokesmen have done their share
to nourish secular fears. "I have
personal aspirations that the en-
tire State of Israel will close on
Shabbat, but I'm not going to
turn them into practice now,"
Shas Knesset member Shlomo
Binizri argued in a radio inter-
view this week.
Those in the secular camp
have a suspicion that any victo-
ry today will be temporary.
"Within a decade, maximum 15
years, there will be a Haredi ma-
jority, even absolute Haredi rule,
in Jerusalem," said Elazar
Strum, chairman of the commis-
sion that recommended the com-
promise on Bar-Han Street.
Indeed, the city's present
Haredi population of about
130,000 (roughly a third of
Jerusalem's Jews) is expected to
double by the year 2015 (mostly
through natural increase), rising
to 44 percent of the Jewish pub-

I is the most beautiful endeav-
or of the Jewish people today,"
enthuses Shmuel Eyal, the di-
rector of the pilot project that
will soon send 11 young, ideal-
istic and slightly anxious Israelis
and North Americans for a nine-
month visit to two Jewish com-
munities in Ukraine.
The program is cnlledAmitim
("Colleagues"), a name chosen to
stress the spirit of equality and
cooperation between the pilot
group and their host communi-
ties and among the 11 partici-
pants from varying backgrounds.
Informally, however, Mr. Eyal
describes it as the kernel of what
Amitim's three sponsors — the
Jewish Agency, the Joint Distri-
bution Committee, and the Unit-
ed Israel Office — are hoping will
grow into a Jewish Peace Corps.
Proposed by the Atlanta Jew-
ish Federation and developed on
the Israeli end by the UIO,
Amitim was conceived as a re-
sponse to two pressing problems
in both Israel and the diaspora:
how to involve young people in
Jewish life and the Zionist en-

.

deavor, and how to cultivate the
communal life of the millions of
Jews who remain in the former
Soviet Union.
"The Ukraine was chosen for
the pilot because it is one of the
most difficult and challenging
places in the Jewish world," ex-
plains Mr. Eyal. "The Jewish
community there has only re-
cently emerged from the under-
ground and is in the process of
defining itself. It needs contact
with people of varying outlooks
from Israel and the Diaspora."
Among the duties to be as-
sumed by the 11 Amitim are in-
struction in Hebrew and English,
bringing the spirit of Jewish life
to their host communities of Vin-
nista and Donetsk, and enrich-
ing their hosts' perspectives on
Zionism and Jewish history, cul-
ture, religion and communal life.
'We want to convey the sense
that we're part of these commu-
nities; to work with, not super-
vise, them," says Lisa Silverman
of Tucson, Ariz.. who is consid-
ering a career in Jewish commu-
