`Partner In
Peace'
"We were very sad about the death
of King Hussein," said Zivit Shamir,
a former Israeli now living in
Bloomfield Hills. "I don't know one
Israeli that doesn't want peace today.
I know that things will change, I
just hope they will change for the
better.
Shamir, part of an overflow crowd
of about 125 local Israelis who
attended an "Israeli Movie Evening"
at the Kahn Jewish Community
Center in West Bloomfield on
Sunday, was not alone in her grief
for King Hussein.
"He was one of the leaders that I
did respect and like," said Debbie
Lev, formerly from Holon, now liv-
ing in West Bloomfield. "Of course,
I didn't know him personally, but I
liked him as a person and as a
leader.
Daniel Gilan, a retired chemical
engineer from Bloomfield Hills,
moved from Ramat Gan in 1951.
Regretting the king's death, he
said the Kingdom of Jordan "will
remain stabilized," and the new
king seems to be pro-Western. "The
feeling in Israel is that Jordan will
still be a good partner in peace," he
said.
Itzi Saar of West Bloomfield, who
moved to the United States 20 years
ago from Holon, called Hussein's
death "a sad moment," and hopes
the son will continue in his father's
. footsteps for peace.
Samuel Shamir, a mechanical
engineer at Daimler Chrysler and
Zivit's husband, grieved for Hussein,
but added that financial support for
both sides is as important as strong
leadership.
"When people are happy and
secure, they are more willing to sup-
port peace," he said. "When they are
insecure and they don't have jobs,
most likely they will support extrem-
ists. That's how it works in the West
Bank and the Gaza Strip."
