were among its leading players. For
them, it underpinned the Jewish claim
to roots in the disputed land.
Another ex-general, Rehavam Ze'evi,
said, "The archaeologists' struggle is the
struggle of all of us. This is our histo-
ry:,
Secular Israelis fear that surrender to
religious pressure on graves will be a
first step on the road to theocracy "If
it's archaeology now," protested Yael
Dayan, an opposition Labor legislator
and daughter of the general, "it will be
other sciences later. In the past, there
were ways to deal with the problems
with understanding. Now, the
Orthodox think there is no need for
understanding. They can impose their
will by coercion."
A protest rally outside the Knesset
recently by about 300 archaeologists
attracted support across the spectrum
of secular politics, from Moledet leader
Ze'evi on the nationalist right to
Meretz leader Yossi Sarid on the dovish
left. They are convinced they can
muster a parliamentary majority to save
archaeology. They fear, however, that
Netanyahu will make the changes with-
out seeking Knesset approval.
Agriculture Minister Rafael Eitan,
whose Tsomet party won its share of
power on a militantly secularist plat-
form, shares their misgivings. When I
asked him how it would be for archae-
ology, he answered with a despairing
candor: "It will be bad."

Games' Sponsor
Is Accused
New York (JTA) — The American
Jewish Congress accused the chief
sponsor of the Goodwill Games of
showing a "lack of goodwill" by threat-
ening to launch a boycott of U.S. prod-
ucts.
The games' sponsor, Nicholas
Hayek, owns the Swiss watchmaking
company Swatch, which said it may
boycott U.S. products in response to a
move by U.S. state and local finance
officials to impose sanctions against
Swiss banks for failing to settle
Holocaust-era claims.
