responsibility is fully his."
The Zionist Organization of
America is sending a letter to
President Bush, asking him to press
Arafat to kick the PFLP out of the
Palestinian Authority, shut down the
organization's training camps and help
bring the assassins to justice.
ZOA National Director Morton
Klein said it is wrong for the United
States to be chastising Israel for taking
measures against domestic terrorism at a
time when the United States is launch-
ing massive military retaliation against
Osama bin Laden and the Al Qaida
network for the Sept. 11 attacks on the
World Trade Center and the Pentagon.
"America is involved in a grotesque
hypocrisy when it is targeting bin
Laden and killers of Americans while
demanding that Israel not target killers
of Israelis, Klein said.
The far-left Israeli group Gush
Shalom, however, said Ze'evi's death
shows the bankruptcy of Israel's own
policy of targeting Palestinian militants,
and highlights the need for peace talks.
"If only this round of revenge does
not lead to counter revenge," the group
said in a statement, "but it is possibly
too much to be expected from this gov-
ernment to draw the conclusion that
assassinations are just not it, and that

always received crank communica-
tions, threatening communications,
some more credible than others," said
Elan Steinberg, executive director of
the World Jewish Congress. "I don't
see an increase in the quality or quan-
tity of such communications.
"However, because of the changed
circumstances and the sober reality
we're facing, I think we address it in a
much more serious manner."
Jewish communities abroad have
been on high alert since the intifada
began a year ago, but have been placed
on even higher alert since Sept. 11,
Steinberg said.
To buttress these efforts, he said, the
WJC has established a new "security
fund" for communities to upgrade
their building security.
At Brandeis, two buildings were evac-
uated Monday after an administrative
assistant to President Jehuda Reinharz
apparently opened an envelope and
found white powder on her hand.
The buildings were cleared for three
hours while law enforcement officials
investigated.

I believe that Arafat has
finally reached our "redline"
with this latest outrage. If he doesn't take
definite action, even George W. won't be
able to convince Israeli citizens and
politicians that Arafat is a partner in
peace, no matter how much he twists
our arms.
Just two days ago my new Events
magazine arrived, complete with the
photo of him [Ze-evi] I chose on the
inside cover and the greeting that I
wrote for him and he approved.
It's definitely the last official Ministry
publication with his signature on it.
"Ghandi" was a soldier statesman —
real salt-of-the-Earth type, warm heart,
interested in everything, and a quick study
about tourism. He will be missed. [1]

Facts about HIV/AIDS and Older Adults:
• Between 11 and 15% of U.S. AIDS cases occur in people over age 50
• Between 1991 and 1996, AIDS cases in the over-50 population rose
more than twice as fast as those among younger adults
• Despite myths and stereotypes, many seniors are sexually active, and,
therefore, their behaviors can put them at risk for HIV infection
• Older individuals with HIV infection or AIDS are usually
invisible, isolated and ignored

Dennis Nealon, a Brandeis spokesman.
Jews are not overreacting, activists
say, but are mindful of history. There
were a rash of letter-bombs aimed at
Jewish leaders in the 1970s and 1980s,
the height of the movement to free
Soviet Jews, said Myrna Shinbaum,
spokeswoman for the Anti-
Defamation League.
"Everyone wants to be safe rather
than sorry," Shinbaum said. "It's more
prudent to implement the safety proto-
cols beforehand than to wait until you
get the threat." Jewish organizations and
institutions should be vigilant, but care-
ful not to go overboard, activists say.
"There's no indication Jews are spe-
cial targets, but that doesn't mean we're
not vulnerable," Hoenlein said. "We
should take every necessary precaution,
but not allow ourselves to be diverted
from our work or paralyzed by fear."
