Foxman claimed that "it would be a real mistake to set up separate offices to deal with different groups of victims. We shouldn't be dividing victims." The problem is that the State Department has already divided them: cases in which Americans were murdered by Palestinian Arabs are ignored — while in cases in which Americans were murdered by terror- ists elsewhere overseas, the State Boruch Saks Departmeni makes every effort to Oak Park catch the killers and aid the victims. Not a single indictment has been brought by the United States against any Palestinian Arab terrorist involved in the murders of Americans in Israel.

I visit Farmington Hills Inn resident Sarabel Panter, a former Elan Villager, on a regular basis and she is always telling me how she is enjoying her new home. The credit goes to the car- ing Farmington Hills Inn staff. As well, I would like to commend Rabbi Dovid Polter and Shirley Jarcaig from JHAS on the terrific work they are doing for these new residents like Sarabel, by implanting more of a Jewish presence into the Farmington Hills Inn community.
