"There has to be rein- forcement. Nobody can relax — ever." But Guy Leventon, finishing up a basketball game at the Heller JCC, said a security guard is not going to stop the violence. Leventon, an Israeli who moved to Chicago two years ago, said hate crime is just a fact of life. . "It happens in Israel every day," Leventon, 31, said. You just get used to it. Hopefully, people here won't have to." After touring the Holocaust Memorial Center in West Bloomfield on Monday, a group of Michigan elemen- tary school teachers said they could put the shootings in Los Angeles into a new perspective. "It's real easy for people to look at things as isolated incidents, because then they don't feel as responsible to take action, and that's the way they can justify things," said Judy Discher, a seventh-grade teacher at Franklin Middle School in the Wayne- Westland Community Schools. "Even if it is an isolated incident, you can see how one can escalate into some- , thing much bigger.' The tour makes it more real — you see the faces," said Tanya Aho, a social studies teacher at Krolik Elementary in Detroit. "Anti-Semitism and racism are very similar. My husband and I always marvel at the way people can ignore overt and racist things that happen that we see as normal. "Detroit is very segregated," she con- tinued, and nobody seems to ask why all the African-Americans live in Detroit and all of the white people live in the suburbs. That's always amazed me." "As educators, we must teach chil- dren these lessons or they're just des- tined to repeat them," said Amy Usher, a sixth-grade teacher at Kennedy Middle School in St. Clair Shores. "There's always some type of persecu- tion and violence. What's happened in L.A. has been happening to Jewish people since the dawn of time." — This is a compilation of reports by staff writers Harry Kirsbaum and Diana Lieberman, by Steven H.

GRUBER Jewish Telegraphic Agency Rome rmed police stand guard 24 hours a day outside the main synagogues in Rome and Vienna. Worshippers in Rome and Milan will have their bags searched before entering synagogue for High Holiday services. Visitors to Budapest's main syna- gogue and Jewish museum — and also to Jewish community offices in the Hungarian capital — have to pass through metal detectors as well as have their bags searched. Visitors to Jewish communal offices have to exchange their passports or other ID for a visitor's pass. While last week's attack on a Jewish center in Los Angeles raised concern about security at synagogues and other Jewish institutions in the United States, security considerations have been a fact of life at Jewish institutions in Europe and the rest of the world for decades. "How could Americans not think of such things?" asked Annie Sacerdoti, editor of Il Bollettino, the magazine of the Jewish community of Milan, Italy. Terrorist attacks by right-wing groups and individuals as well as by Arab and far-left factions dating back to the 1970s have forced many European Jewish communities to take expensive and sometimes elaborate security measures. Communities frequently install in- house measures and hire private secu- rity companies to supplement protec- tion by local police. In Rome and Milan, for example, cars are not allowed to park outside syn- agogues. Police mount an extra guard on the High Holidays and sometimes block off the street. Worshippers have their bags searched, and private security L__\/ guards stand by with walkie-talkies. Jewish communal institutions fea- ture double security doors and, some- times, bulletproof glass. Rome's main synagogue was the object of a Palestinian terrorist attack in October 1982 that left a toddler dead and many injured. That attack, which - followed the Israeli invasion of Lebanon in June 1982, was part of major waves of anti-Jewish terrorism in Europe in the 1970s and early 1980s. This summer a bomb was defused before it went off in a Moscow syna- gogue. The Jewish community there has called on the Russian government to provide greater security for Jewish institutions. P1 A - \
