i t suggested that "three of the top 10

rganizations [including AIPA] owe
1-leir high rankings to-their substantial
campaign contributions."
In fact, AIPAC is prohibited from
olitical giving. But Arab-American
roups and a group of former State
epartment employees have charged in
iot.r7: that AIPAC plays a role in deter-
ining which politicians get money
rom other pro-Israel groups and which
lon't.
An AIPAC spokeswoman was the
e ry
soul of modesty, attributing the
roup's success to "the profound interest

migrant Thanksgiving

hec turkey was kosher but the crowd
as distinctly pluralistic at this week's
mmigrant Thanksgiving Program" in
e Capitol, a project of the American
wish Committee's Belfer Center For
erican Pluralism.
On the program were Hispanic,
dochinese, African and Jewish immi-
ants, as well as Doris Meissner, com-
isomer of the Immigration and
aturalization Service.
In a written message, Gen. John
halikashvili, the retired chairman of
e Joint Chiefs of Staff, spoke of his
n background as a refugee fleeing an
panding Soviet Union and his deter-
ination to contribute to his new
omeland.
"The America I adopted and that
lowed me looks little like the America
e remember each November when we
lebrate Thanksgiving," he said. "But I,
o, was a pilgrim to these shores and,
ke the first Pilgrims, America has
ught me the value of hard work and
crifice, and of commitment to com-
[ 'unity and country."
Why the Capitol Hill event?
"It's hopefully the first in a series of
Tc7:s to highlight the positive contri-
utions to American society made by
phrnigrants, and to puncture, piece by
tece, negative myths about immi-
7ants," said Jeffrey Weintraub, director
the AJC's pluralism project. "One
.irpose is to provide very public exam-
les of people from all over who are
ying into American culture." ❑
