hatred."
The demonstrators plan to pass out
their "18 nonnegotiable demands" for
Israel, according to the organizations"
Web site.
Most of the demands sound like talk-
ing points for the Palestinian
Authority, including opposition to tar-
geted killings and an end to "illegal
settlements. But then the group
reveals its true colors:
"Failure to address these reasonable
demands will be a tacit admission to
the world that Israel is a terrorist state
and that Jewish interests are bent on
world domination and genocide
against Palestinians, Muslims and peo-
ple of European ancestry," according to
the National Alliance Web site.
The AJCommittee chapter, working
with several civil rights groups, has
decided against a co unterdemonstra-
tion.
Instead, they will invoke their
"Operation Lemonade" plan developed
to counter other hate-group events.
For every minute of the neo-Nazi
march, the groups will donate a speci-
fied amount of money "to causes that
these Nazis detest: strengthening diver-
sity and helping victims of terror and
hate."

Torch Run

In 1936, Adolf Hitler revived an old
custom: the carrying of the Olympic
torch, the enduring symbol of the
sporting extravaganza, by athletes run-
ning relays.
Next week, that custom will get a
poignant twist when a survivor of
Hitler's Holocaust carries the torch
past the U.S. Holocaust Memorial
Museum on its way to Salt Lake City
for the 2002 Winter Games.
Martin Weiss will carry the torch
down 15th Street in front of the muse-
um. Weiss, born in Czechoslovakia,
survived a succession of Nazi labor and
death camps, including Auschwitz.
After his liberation by U.S. forces, he
and his remaining family emigrated to
this country, where he carved out a
successful career in the food industry.
When members of survivor groups
heard that the torch would pass down
15th Street, they appealed to the Salt
Lake Organizing Committee, which is
arranging the 13,000-plus mile run, to
allow a survivor to carry the torch past
the museum.
Weiss, according to a museum
spokesman, "is hitting the treadmill;
he's in training and determined to
run." The 82-year-old Weiss will do
his 1/5 mile run on Friday, Dec. 21, at
6:30 p.m. ❑
