"The Power of & The Fusion
of Design and Technology"
The Israeli press has reported suspi-
cions that two, and perhaps three,
Iraqi men lived with the Rosens at var-
ious times. Apparently, the Iraqis were
refugees who fled to Jordan during the
Gulf War and the Rosens befriended
them during their posting in Jordan.
Last year, the Iraqis gained entry
into the United States as political
refugees and moved to Nashville,
Tenn., according to Jacob Rosen. At
about the same time that Rosen's wife
moved to Atlanta to complete her
treatments for breast cancer and to set
up house, at least one of the Iraqis,
Bahalul, came to stay with the Rosens. -
The Rosens never tried to conceal
their associations with the Iraqis.
According to community sources,
Bahalul would greet visitors to the Rosen
home and be introduced as a "friend."
In November, the Iraqi was being
driven in the consular vehicle when it
was in an accident. According to diplo-
matic sources, Bahalul was being tem-
porarily moved out of the residence to
make room for Rosen's eldest son, who
was on leave from the Israeli army.
Israeli security officials in the United
States were said to have been aware of
the Rosens' relationship with the Iraqis
but opted against a formal investiga-
tion until the car accident forced them
to report the allegations to Foreign
Ministry officials in Jerusalem.
Kenneth Stein, a professor of
Middle East studies at Emory
University in Atlanta and a friend of
the Rosen family, said he does not
understand why this is such a big deal.
"Jacob Rosen is in the business of
making contacts with the Arab world,"
he said. "He was a key figure in keep-
ing the Jordanian-Israeli relationship
together when he was in Amman, and
at that time he created an impressive
network within the Arab world. It's
only natural that he remains friends
with some of them." ❑
