New Trigger Man
For The NRA
With Moses now heading the
National Rifle Association, will Jews
now flock to the militant pro-gun
group?
Not likely,
Jewish activists
here say.
Chariton
Heston, the chisel-
faced actor best
remembered for
his starring role in
the epic movie
"The Ten
Charlton Heston
Commandments," as a poacher in the
film Alaska.'
won the NRA
presidency this
week. He is expected to mount a major
public relations offensive for the group,
which has been pummeled by the reac-
tion to recent cases of shootings at
schools and growing public concern
about the ease with which kids, crimi-
nals and anti-government nuts can
acquire sophisticated weapons.
"The more people see of him in this
role, the less good his fame will do the
organization," said Mark Pelavin, asso-
ciate director of the Religious Action
Center of Reform Judaism, which has
actively supported federal gun control
initiatives. "I don't see any evidence he
will make the group any less radical
than his predecessors."
That radicalism, Jewish activists say,
is a major factor in the group's declin-
ing membership — although nobody
in Washington is ready to write off the
NRA when it comes to gun legislation
on Capitol Hill.
Heston's election also didn't impress
Rep. Charles Schumer, D-N.Y., the
leading congressional advocate for
tough gun control laws, who has been
termed a "Jewish gun grabber" by pro-
gun extremists whose arguments are
sometimes tinged with anti-Semitism.
Heston is "the NRA's new trigger
man," he said this week. "With
Charlton Heston the NRA has found a
new actor but it's the same old script.
It's a script that the American people
have rejected as too harsh, too violent
and too extreme. Frankly, if the NRA
is mainstream then we live on the
Planet of the Apes."
Congressional Doings
On Mideast Front
Members of Israel's Knesset have
joined with a handful of Capitol Hill
machers to create a joint panel to study
missile defenses — a subject that is
getting increasing attention here and
in Jerusalem in the wake of the South
Asian arms race.
On the roster: Knesset members
Uzi Landau and Ori Orr, who were in
town last week for preliminary meet-
ings, and a bipartisan group of U.S.
lawmakers, including Sen. Jon Kyl, R-
Ariz., Sen. Joe Lieberman, D-Conn.,
and Rep. Neil Abecrombie, D-Hawaii.
A congressional source said that
while the group's charter was general,
it would look at the growing threat of
missile proliferation in the region, as
well as research on defensive programs
and the Arrow anti-ballistic missile
program, an Israeli project funded
largely by Washington.
On another front, a group of pro-
peace process activists has written to
the House leadership, complaining
about what they see as a growing level
of partisan rancor when it comes to
Mideast issues.
"We are deeply troubled by the
provocative rhetoric that has charac-
terized some recent congressional
statements about the administration's
attempts to prevent an outbreak of
violence and to get the peace process
back on track," they wrote.
Although the letter was addressed
to both House Speaker Newt
Gingrich, R-Ga., and Minority Leader
Richard Gephardt, D-Mo., Capitol
Hill sources said that it was clearly
aimed at GOP leaders, who have
accused the Clinton administration of
blackmailing Israel into accepting a
bigger troop redeployment that the
Likud government feels is safe.
The letter was authored by E.
Robert Goodkind, Alexander Grass,
Seymour D. Reich and Susan K.
Stern, a bi-partisan group of Jewish lay
leaders who have supported the peace
process.
A BigWin
On Food Stamps
Some rare good news for immigrants
in these days of slashed budgets and
anti-immigrant regulations: last week
the House approved $818 million to
restore food stamp benefits to some
legal immigrants. The administration
had originally asked for $2.5 billion,
but Jewish groups were not quibbling.
