Ayatollah
To The Rescue

Jewish groups, which have been
prominent in the fight for tough
sanctions on the extremist gov-
ernment in Teheran, have been
alarmed by the growing pressure
on the Clinton administration to
ease the economic squeeze in the
wake of the election of Mohammed
Khatemi, a supposed moderate, as
president.
Sanctions supporters got a boost
from Ayatollah Dr. Mehdi Haeri,
an exiled Iranian dissident and for-
mer classmate of the new presi-
dent. Ayatollah Haeri was jailed
in the early 1980s for writing a
book advocating the separation of
mosque and state, among other
heresies.
In testimony before the House
International Relations Commit-
tee, Ayatollah Haeri called the Iran
Libya Sanctions Act "the only ef-
fective response so far to the evil
regime which now dominates our
lives in Iran."
The sanctions, he said, have
"succeeded beyond any expecta-
tions," and he urged Congress not
to allow any easing of the economic
pressure.
And, in meetings with admin-
istration and congressional offi-
cials, he warned that Khatemi was
little more than a weak and inde-
cisive figurehead president who
would be unable to offset the pow-
er of Iran's religious leaders.

New Take
On Old Measure

In what has become almost an an-
nual ritual, Jewish groups an-
nounced the reintroduction of the
Work-place Religious Freedom Act,
a measure aimed at making things
easier for workers whose religious
obligations require special accom-
modations by employers — includ-
ing Sabbath-observant Jews.
But this time around, the bill
may face better odds; the coalition
of religious groups pushing it have
opted for a "Senate-first" strategy,
and enlisted a conservative Re-
publican as their standard-bear-
er.
The bill was introduced last
week by Sen. Dan Coats (R-Ind.)
and Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass.
Current law requires reason-
able accommodations, unless they
impose undue hardships on em-
ployers. But, in the view of many
Jewish groups, the courts have in-
terpreted that standard in a way
that gives employers excessive lat-
itude. The proposed law would re-
store the religious accommodation
protections passed by Congress in
1972.
Senator Coats, with the bless-
ing of the coalition pushing the bill,
modified it in an effort to damp-
