The iRobot line of military robots includes scout robots that can reconnoiter unknown territory or inaccessible areas; an explosive ordinance disposal (EOD) robot able to disarm bombs without risking human lives; and an unmanned all-purpose ATV. The robots have been used in recent conflicts in both Afghanistan and Iraq, and the response from military personnel has been positive. The testimonials displayed on the iRobot site display a general consensus that iRobot products save lives.
"When a robot dies you don't have to write a letter to its mother," a Navy chief is quoted as saying after a iRobot PackBot EOD model was destroyed in the field.
The ethics statement at the iRobot site states, "We are committed to making the world a better place by building robots that are used by people everyday. Our home robots clean your house and our mobile tactical robots help protect our soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan." But critics are still wary of giving robots to Uncle Sam.
"At what point will these military robots start being equipped with automatic weapons, grenades or high explosives?" said Mike Adams, a technology ethicist. "At that point, the U.S. military becomes a human/machine hybrid killing system, where armed, automated robots might be unleashed upon some civilian population in order to maximize enemy casualties while minimizing American casualties.
"Consumers who buy Roomba robots should realize they are financially supporting a company that is deeply engaged in military operations," he said.
On Nov. 16, iRobot received $1.6 million in funding from the U.S. government's Technical Support Working Group (TSWG) in order to develop, field test and train in the use of the iRobot Warrior. The Warrior is already used in combat situations as an EOD robot, and it can also be used to transport ammunition and supplies to troops, even in the middle of a firefight, or extract injured troops from the battlefield. However, a press release on the iRobot web site also states that the Warrior "has the potential to be a co-combatant" alongside soldiers. Joe Dyer, President of iRobot Government & Industrial Robots said in the email that, in response to customer requests, the company was also considering arming the iRobot PackBot with a shotgun.
However, Dyer said that armed iRobot products are not going to be allowed to make their own life-or-death decisions any time soon.
"If a weapons payload is attached, it is important to ensure extreme safety and that there is a human making all critical decisions," he said in an email interview. "IRobot robots have safety systems to ensure correct usage and it always puts a human in the decision-making process.
"Robots give soldiers the ability to understand what they're getting into, before they put themselves in harm's way," Dyer said. "Future robots will carry military equipment as payloads including weapons, thermal imagers, cameras, mine detectors, chemical and biological agent detectors."
Yet, the concept of an autonomous robot armed with lethal weaponry is far from paranoia, as at least one has already gone into production. Samsung recently unveiled its Intelligent Surveillance and Guard Robot, a stationary sentry robot armed with a 5.5-millimeter K3 machine gun and an optical system, intended for deployment along the heavily fortified South Korean border. The robot is able to track human targets up to 2.5 miles away and can be programmed to respond to a spoken password. If the password is incorrect, the robot can sound an alarm or shoot at its target.

Contact: Jennifer Chapman, 415-464-5133
West Marin residents and property owners from the Inverness Ridge communities, Point Reyes Station and Olema are invited to attend an informational meeting on March 27 or March 30 to learn more about a series of fire safety projects planned for later this spring and summer.
The meetings will focus on the funding Marin County Fire Department at Point Reyes Station recently received in partnership with the National Park Service and FireSafe Marin to improve fire safety in communities surrounding Point Reyes National Seashore.
The projects propose vegetation management and improvement of turnouts along roads in Inverness Ridge neighborhoods to provide safe emergency access for firefighters and egress for residents in the event of a fire. The proposed work involves brushing, and limbing on roadsides and clearance above the road in order to decrease fuels in areas required for transit. These road maintenance measures are the standard for all county-maintained roads in Marin.
Roadside work is currently planned for Fox Lane, Noren Way, McCarthy Court, Silverhills Road, Laurel Street, Drake Summit, Balboa Ave., Redwood Drive, Sherwood Rd., South Dream Farm Rd., and North Dream Farm Rd.
Additional funding has also been provided for a chipping program to reduce costs associated with managing vegetation around homes in order to create defensible space. This program is intended for residents of Point Reyes Station, Inverness Ridge and Olema.
For convenience, two meeting dates have been scheduled to present the proposed work and to discuss any questions residents may have. The meetings have been scheduled for Wednesday, March 27th, 7:30-8:30pm and Saturday, March 30th, 10-11am at the Dance Palace Community Center in Point Reyes Station. Residents only need to attend one meeting.
Funding for these projects is provided through a cooperative agreement between the National Park Service and FireSafe Marin.
"Fire safety involves a lot of teamwork," says Seashore Superintendent Don Neubacher.
FireSafe Marin is one of over 90 fire safe councils throughout the state of California which bring together public agencies, private business, and local residents to prevent losses due to wildland fire.
FireSafe Marin meets monthly and all interested are welcome to attend. For more information, visit the FireSafe Marin website at www.firesafemarin.org.

The Arizona State senior forward won the award today for the third time this season. It's the first time that's happened since 2010-11 season when UW star Isaiah Thomas and Arizona standout Derrick Williams did it. Williams later claimed the Player of the Year award in the conference. Felix, one of the leading POY candidates this season, had his sixth and seventh double-double games last week that helped ASU in a pair of home wins. In a 78-60 win over UCLA, he scored a team-high 23 points and collected 11 rebounds and three steals. He shot 8-of-12 (.667) from the field and 6-of-8 (.750) from the free throw line. Against USC, Felix finished with 16 points and 10 rebounds in ASU's 98-93 overtime victory. He shot 5-of-10 (.500) from the field and 5-of-8 (.625) from the free throw line. Felix is averaging 15.1 and 8.2 points. He won POW honors Dec. 3 and Jan. 7.

Advisors are essential to any project. They provide guidance as you develop content and offer advice on the best ways to reach your target audience. They are your experts. Advisors can be such a valuable resource for you that it is important to think carefully about the types of people you want for advisors and how you want to use them.
Some advisory boards, convened primarily for the benefit of funders, are made up of "big names." While their names can help open doors for you, they often don't have the time to commit to your project beyond giving it their stamp of approval. If you need to have such advisors for funding purposes, think about balancing them with people who you know can give you real, constructive feedback.
The best projects have advisory boards that span all the pieces, from planning to production to program outreach. Increasingly, funders require common advisory boards. Having one advisory board ensures that the different elements will be integrated and consistent. You will, however, rapidly burn out your advisors if you require them to review every element of a project. Therefore, the best strategy is to establish a central advisory board and then to spread responsibility across the board depending on the individual advisors' skills, interests, and specialties. You may want to have one key advisor responsible for content across the project, but this person should be compensated at a much higher rate than your other advisors.
You might also consider having a national advisory board, which includes individuals representing both your project's content area and the target audience(s) -- essentially a joint production/outreach board. You could then have an additional local board made up of individuals in the trenches, people who can give a more practical review of your materials and activities and who can commit to piloting parts of your project.
As with all partners, the key to working with advisors is to be clear about expectations. How much time will you need from them? Will there be meetings? Will you cover travel expenses? What volume of material will they be expected to review? When? And on what kind of turnaround schedule? What will be their compensation? Will it be an honorarium or an hourly rate? Again, as with partners, the sooner you can bring them on, the better. When you talk to potential advisors about your project, spend enough time listening to their opinions before you commit to them; this way, you can ensure that their input will be useful. Advisors figure out pretty quickly when their advice is being ignored routinely. This isn't a good use of their time or yours.

Common Living – An NYC Sublet Startup That Makes Housing Affordable For Milennials
Common – The Startup that is Revolutionizing how we see sublets in NYC
New York is one of the largest cities in the whole world, famous for its nickname – the "Big Apple". It is also the most beloved cities by tourists and even the local people who are living in it can't get enough of it.
New York City is known as one of the sophisticated cities in the world. There are large skyscrapers, beautiful houses, and all the most luxurious homes that you will ever dream of. As this is the situation of the place, of course, living is not only less expensive, but it is expensive. Although the city is known for its high standard of living, there's a big catch that comes with the luxury – expenses.
Did you know that finding for a place to live in the city is very challenging? Once you know that there is an empty or available apartment for rent, do not hesitate to grab the opportunity because most for rent studio type ranges from $2,000 to $2,400 per month. Can you imagine yourself living on it? Of course, you do, but are willing to pay for that price? Or do you have that kind of amount for rent? If you do, then you are showered with so many blessings. Not to say that not everyone can afford, but the expense of living with it is very costly. Imagine what else you can do with that big amount of money? For sure you'd be spending it more economical.
There are other means to find a place in New York City instead of having to spend the entire apartment by yourself – It is called a sublet. There are apartments in New York that offers this kind of benefit for people who are perhaps staying a few days and does not want to spend checking on hotels. What's a good way to find a sublet in New York? One of the easiest ways is to contact one of New York's hottest rising startups – Common. This startup is no joke, and offers a sweet deal when it comes to housing.
Here are a few ways to find a sublet in New York if you don't want to go with Common's option.
Post an advertisement- The use of websites can be helpful, such as Craiglist. What do you need to list? By giving your specifications such as the location, price range, you can also add pictures to make it more specific, and or the kind of house or apartment that you want to live. Although, you have to take precaution because anyone can scam you.
The use of social media- You may have friends from New York that can help you find a suitable place to live in. There may be people from New York, who can help you and maybe know sublets around their vicinity. Would that be an amazing venture? But still, you are meeting strangers; it is important that you be extra careful. Meet the person in a place where it is safer.
Most important of all – Keep searching! If you're having trouble finding a sublet, keep on searching until you find one. If there are people who have contacted you, make sure that you can follow up on them as well.

The EU is facing the biggest problem with immigrants ever. The Pope calls to peace and the situation in Syria suddenly gets worse. And in this complex situation in the world Russia suddenly starts bombing ISIS. Why? Before the answer will be given, several things should be understood.
1. Putin lies.
Putin always lies. It is one of the basic things which all people should understand. He was lying, when terrorists took hostages in Beslan several years ago. He was lying, when he sent his soldiers to the Ukraine. And he will lie forever. You can find proofs of his lies by yourself or you can wait for my next articles. Anyway, we need to figure out the reasons of his lies. And here is the second position.
2. Putin and his surrounding are criminals.
Yes, they really are.
You don't need to google it deeply to understand this. There was an accident several weeks ago. Putin's secretary, Dmitry Peskov, was photographed with his 40,000 Euro watches. To make it easier to understand I will add, that everything in Russia belongs to Putin or his friends. For example: "Russian Railways" (the only Russian railroad carrier) belongs to Yakunin, Putin's classmate, "Bank of Russia" belongs to his old friend etc. Even churches are to get money.
But here we speak not only about his money and how much he and his friends has stolen. We also speak about war crimes. Here we can start from Crimea's annexation, go through Georgian war and stop at Chechnya's war. But Chechnya is a topic for the another article, I will just write here, that Putin used missile launchers to bomb the capital of Chechnya.
3. The most of Russians are zombies
No, I don't mean that they are infected or something like that.
They just watch TV and they believe in what the authority says. Also, they have an ability to forget, what they were told yesterday. So, it's okey if you speak with such Russian (they are called "vatniki") and yesterday he has told you, that, for example Ukrainians, are his friends, and today he says that he hates them.
So, no we are clear with Putin's authority and now let's speak about Syria. Here we should say, that Russian economy is based on 2 big things: prices on oil and prices on gas.
Somewhere near 75% of all income of Russia comes from oil and gas. And here we can find out the 1st reason of Russian attacks on Syria
1. Qatar
Qatar has one of the biggest amount of gas in the world. The point is that Qatar was going to make a gas pipeline. Try to guess, where was it to be? Right, it had to go from Qatar to Europe through Syria. Nothing to add
2. Iran
Iran has got the biggest oil fleet in the world. And it can mine more oil, than even Russia.
The situation is that Barack Obama wants to make Iran a partner of the USA and of the EU. Of course, it will crash oil prices. And that means that Putin and his friends will lose a really big amount of money
3. Ukraine
No, Ukraine doesn't mine oil or gas. The problem is that Putin stuck in Ukraine. He can't get out, without admitting himself defeated. Russia has really big problems with the economy and there is no guarantee that situation won't get worse. But Putin is a former worker of KGB and that means that he will never admit himself defeated. So war in Syria is his way out. He wants to show to the rest of the world, that he is a good guy too and he fights with terrorists. But still he is bombing FSA and doing this he wants to show that he wants to see Asad as a leader of Syria. Why does he need to let Asad rule Syria? Syria is the only Russian partner in the region. There is only one Russian naval base there and Putin doesn't want to lose it.
This reasons are the most obvious ones. If we speak about Putin we can't be 100% sure that we are right. The only thing we know for sure is that there will be a land operation in Syria, the question is only "when?". And yes, Sunni is the biggest group of Muslims in the world that's why Syria can become the second Afghanistan for Russia, but with more acts of terrorism.

Rochester's poverty talk has to include evictions
by: Jake Clapp
Matthew Desmond gets straight to the point in his Pulitzer Prize-winning book, "Evicted." "We have failed to fully appreciate how deeply housing is implicated in the creation of poverty," he writes in the book's prologue. "Not everyone living in a distressed neighborhood is associated with gang members, parole officers, employers, social workers, or pastors. But nearly all of them have a landlord."
In the book, Desmond, a professor of sociology at Princeton University, profiles eight families in Milwaukee, following their struggles with finding, and keeping, housing. To do this, in 2008, he first moved into a trailer park and then into a rooming house and took a full-time job as a fieldworker. Desmond — who'll be in Rochester May 9 for a sold-out lecture hosted by PathStone — paints a deep picture of how eviction leads to poverty, and how that cycle keeps people trapped.
Last year, Desmond and a team of researchers at Princeton started The Eviction Lab, a database collecting eviction data, the first of its kind in the country. To date, 83 million records from 48 states and the District of Columbia have been added. The lab wants to make the data accessible to the public, and there are easy-to-use tools that allow you to look at local eviction rates, demographic information, and make comparisons with other municipalities.
The Eviction Lab doesn't yet have data on Rochester, but New York State reported 38,055 evictions in 2016. And according to Rochester City Court information, there were 3,510 evictions in Rochester in 2017.
In reality, the number of evictions in Rochester is probably higher, says Susan Boss, executive director of the Housing Council at PathStone, since that number reflects only evictions that went through the court process. The only legal way for a landlord to evict a tenant is through a court process, but techniques like changing the locks, removing furniture, or even just threatening court action are often used to get people to move.
The Housing Council, which runs a hotline for housing issues, received 1,167 calls in 2017 related to eviction, from tenants and landlords regarding everything from threats of eviction to what a family can do once it's been evicted.

NEW YORK-On the eve of the
fifth anniversary of the signing of
the Final Act of the Conference
on Security Cooperation in
Europe the Helsinki Accords
Stanley H. Lowell, chairman
of the National Conference on
Soviet Jewry (NCSJ) Helsinki
Monitoring Committee, stated
that the Soviet Union's failure to
comply with the principles of the
1975 Helsinki Accords is ap-
Lowell called the dramatic
cutback in Jewish emigration
from the USSR in recent months
a reminder "that the areas of the
agreement dealing with human
rights, particularly the
reunification of families, are
being blatantly violated."
Lowell recalled: "On Aug. 1,
1975, thirty-five nations in-
cluding the U.S. and the USSR
pledged to work together
toward a more open and secure
Europe, setting goals based on
mutually recognized principles
including sovereignty,
cooperation among states and
respect for human rights.
Regrettably, the results are
For example, Lowell pointed
out that the rate of Jewish
emigration from the Soviet Union
to Israel and other nations has
been slashed to about 40 percent
of its 197.9 level. He also said that
the practices and procedures
encountered by applicants for
emigration remain substantially
unchanged since the signing of
the Accords.
Despite the promise of Basket
III of the Final Act to "facilitate
freer movement and contacts"
and to "deal (with family
reunification applications) in a
positive and humanitarian spirit

By GIL SEDAN
Prime Minister Menachem Begin
reversed his stand on early
elections. His office issued a
statement saying that there was
no need to hold the elections for
the 10th Knesset earlier than
their legal date November
The statement was in contrast
to remarks made by Begin during
the Cabinet session Aug. 3 in
favor of early elections, next May
or June. Those remarks were
quickly interpreted by political
analysts as the first shot in the
1981 elections, and caused an im-
mediate general stirring in the
political community.
Although Begin's statement
came apropos consultations with
Deputy Prime Minister Simcha
Ehrlich it now seems that they
were not sufficiently thought out.
Influentials at the Likud argued
that by agreeing to hold early
elections as the opposition has
demanded for some time the
Likud actually admitted its own
Begins statement at the
Cabinet meeting was made in
passing, although Ehrlich said
after the Cabinet session that he
and Begin decided on that
direction a few weeks ago in dis-
cussions they held.
According to Ehrlich, a mem-
ber of the Liberal Party, Begin
and he felt that the Likud
coalition would do better to seize
the initiative and schedule an
election on its terms rather than
wait to face defections by mem-
bers of small coalition factions
and no-confidence motions by the
Labor Alignment opposition.
. ," Soviet authorities continue
to subject applicants to much the
same oppressive measures as
before, especially thousands of
Jews seeking to join relatives and
friends in other lands.
One of the other major areas of
concern, emphasized Lowell, is
the matter of freedom of religion
and culture. Says Lowell:
"Thousands of Soviet Jews
activists and non-activists are
struggling for the inalienable
right to practice their chosen
religion without oppression.
Those who voice their disen-
chantment with Soviet practices
are continually subjected to
harassment, arrests and, in some
cases, criminal prosecution."
" Pointing to the upcoming
Madrid Conference in November,
which will check the compliance
with the Helsinki agreement,
Lowell called on the Soviet
government to fully implement
the Accords. He urged it to
adhere to all provisions of the
agreement, particularly those
portions on human rights which
have been systematically

Protest Embassy Move
, By GIL SEDAN
JERUSALEM (JTA) The Jewish community in
Venezuela is launching a widespread campaign against its
pvemment's decision to move its embassy in Israel from
erusalem to Tel Aviv, Walter Czenstochowsky, chairman of
i World Zionist Organization in Venezuela and vice president
the central committee of Jewish organizations in that
ountry, said here in a radio interview.
Czenstochowsky, who is visiting Israel, said Jewish
aders in Venezuela were meeting with high-ranking govern-
ent officials as well as public opinion molders, pointing out
at the issue of united Jerusalem as the capital of Israel is
ove and beyond any political considerations.
"Jerusalem is not only the capital of Israel but also the
apital of the Jewish people." he said.
Venezuela announced that it was moving its embassy from
Jerusalem, where it has been located for the past 22 years, in
(irotest against "one-sided measures taken by Israel changing
he status of the city."
Czenstochowsky said he could not understand why
Venezuela was the first Latin American country to take this
He said he did not believe that Venezuela gave in to Arab
pressure because as a leading world oil producer it could resist
uch pressure. "I believe that the pressure came not from
reel's enemies, but her friends," he said.
Hinting that it was the United States which initiated the
|tep, Czenstochowsky said there were friends who wanted to
ke measures against Israel.
"However, because of obvious reasons they could not take
hese measures, they wanted others to do it in their place," he

[veral interviews the Jewish
llegraphic Agency conducted
\ith leaders of American Jewish
lomen's organizations who
\tended the world conference of
United Nations Decade for
Vomen in Copenhagen last
[sappointed and disenchanted
eraice Tannenbaum returned
om the United Nations Decade
t,r Women Conference in
openhagen last month.
"I was appalled by the bias of
hose in the chair, the secretariat,
United Nations special
encies, and by the lack of
ary proper procedures," she
Jold the Jewish Telegraphic
[gency in an interview.
Tannenbaum, president of
ladassah, represented the World
ewish Congress as a non-
governmental organization with
pnsultative status at this in-
emational conference.
"I CAME (to the conference)
oping that it would not be
oliticized and we would talk
out world issues," but "the
FLO was there in full force, they
Jroke up whatever meeting they
ere not happy with" and
^ostentatiously walked out in
oves" whenever a member of
the Israeli delegation spoke,
ontinued Tannenbaum.
The chairman did not delegate
equal tune to snuff Arab
propaganda leaving Jewish
observers "seething because we
were angry about what we were
hearing and had to be passive,"
explained Tannenbaum.
Speaking on the isolation felt
by the Israeli delegation, Tan-
nenbaum said that "from the
first meeting we sensed the
palpable loneliness of the Israeli
delegation" consisting of about
15 members.
As Jewish leaders, "our
presence was vitally important in
combatting that loneliness and
injecting our voices into the
forum. We provided that morale-
building element which they
needed so much. We created our
own entity on the spot," joined
by many members of the U.S.
delegation, to discuss how to stop
the politicization of the con-
THIS GROUP of Jewish
leaders was headed by a steering
committeecharacterized by
Tannenbaum as a "little UN of
Jewish women" with two
Americans and one represen-
tative each from Switzerland,
Finland, Holland, England,
France, Denmark and Canada.
The American delegation had a
irflnmNtTiML sk******
good relationship with the Jewish
women, according to Tan-
nenbaum, and met with Jewish
leaders for briefings almost every
A cautious mood at the
"beginning of the conference was
dispelled by directives from
Washington to maintain a "firm
stand on the question of Zionism
and the fact that funds should
not be channeled through the
PLO," continued Tannenbaum.
"The Egyptians were warm
and proper until Mrs. Sadat left"
at which time they kept "a low
profile," she said. Despite Mrs.
Sadat's words on behalf of Israel,
the official Egyptian delegation
, was directed to vote for adoption
of the final "Plan of Action" with
its condemnation of Israel.
AMID ALL the isolation,
Tannenbaum reported, "the
Danish community was stalwart,
both Jews and non-Jews." Danes
equate anti-Israel sentiment with
Anti-Semitism, a phenomenon
with which they are not familiar,
Tannenbaum observed.
To counter pro-PLO
propaganda, about 100 Danes,
Jews and non-Jews, demon-
strated in front of the building
housing the conference wearing
yellow Stars of David on their
arms, carrying Danish and Israeli
flags, and singing Hatikva,
Israel's national anthem. Within
minutes they were joined by
other conference delegates
singing Israeli songs.
Despite the constant
politicization of the conference,
there were some positive effects.
According to Tannenbaum, these
include "the contact and in-
teraction of women from different
societies," the "healing at-
mosphere of the Danish com-
munity," and "the fact that the
U.S. delegation was so firm in its
commitments and ideals" in
trying to redirect the conference
towards its original goals.
When asked if the women's
conference attained the set goals,
Tannenbaum replied, "most
delegations' goals were not
achieved" becuase "the agenda
was turned around by the in-
jection of these extraneous
issues." She added that the PLO,
however, was "very successful"
in achieving their goals because
the PLO "did not come to talk
about women; their goal was
completely political."
Tannenbaum stated that there
were those present at the con-
ference who felt "there was no
point in having another con-
ference in five years" at the
conclusion of the UN Decade for
Women, and added regretfully,
"I am not sure what purpose is
served." ___

Soviet Leaders Want in on Peace Tato
By WOLF BLITZER
The Jewish Chronicle
The Soviet Union, effectively
shut out of Arab-Israeli peace
negotiations since Egyptian
President Anwar Sadat's
dramatic journey to Jerusalem in
November 1977, is making noises
that it wants to get back into the
diplomatic maneuverings shortly
after the U.S. presidential elec-
tions in November.
Like their counterparts in
Western Europe, restless Soviet
leaders believe that America's
domination of the peace talks be-
tween Israel and its Arab neigh
bors should come to an end. They
want to be in on the action.
Hut Soviet leaders appear
oblivious to the fact that neither
Israel nor Egypt has even the
slightest desire to see Moscow
share the mediatory spotlight
with the United States. As far as
Israel is concerned, the United
States remains the only respected
intermediary, Western Europe,
the United Nations, the African
countries, the Vatican and all
previous participants having lost
their credibility in Jerusalem.
The impression that the Soviet
Union would like once again to
try to team up with the United
States to settle the Arab-Israeli
conflict next year irrespective
of who is elected President was
conveyed by a Soviet diplomat
here in Washington, who recently
invited me to lunch.
IT HAS been strengthened by
articles in the government-con-
trolled Soviet news media, in-
cluding a suggestion by a leading
Soviet expert on the Middle East
that Saudi Arabia was dis-
illusioned with the United States
and that the time was ripe to
open diplomatic relations be-
tween Moscow and Riyadh.
"The internal and foreign
policy situation in Saudi Arabia
is changing," wrote Igor Bel-
yayev in the weekly Literary
Gazette. He added: "Not a trace
remains of the former confidence
of special relations with Saudi
Arabia since the 1920's, and until
recently Saudi Arabia was dis-
missed in the Soviet press as a
"kingdom of darkness." But the
official Soviet attitude towards
the Saudis changed a year ago
when Belyayev suggested that
diplomatic relations might be

could be restored very quickly
("no problem") as soon as good
progress had been achieved
towards a "comprehensive"
peace agreement.
Indeed, all the East European
countries would move simul-
taneously to resume diplomatic
ties with Israel at that point, he
insisted. The diplomat noted with
apparent pride the fact that the
Soviet Union was the second
country (after the United States)
to recognize Israel's in-
dependence in 1948.
THROUGHOUT the conver-
sation, he stressed that Russia
does not oppose Israel's right to
exist. The Soviet Union, he
explained, supports a negotiated
peace agreement in the Middle
East which would provide
security for Israel but also recog-
nize the "legitimate rights" of
the Palestinians. That the
Soviets accept Israel's right to
exist in the pre-1967 lines has
been made clear on several oc-
casions to the PLO's Yasir
Arafat. he maintained.
Regarding a new Soviet
"peace" initiative in the Middle
East, the Soviet diplomat in-
sisted that Moscow was prepared
to play a "constructive" role in
trying to moderate Arab
positions just as Washington
should be trying to make Israel's
stance more flexible. "We were
working well on that until
Sadat's trip to Jerusalem," he
This was a dearcut reference to
the ill-fated Oct. 1. 1977, U.S.-
Soviet joint communique on the
Middle East which was signed by
then Secretary of State Cyrus
Vance and the Soviet Foreign
Minister, Andrei Gromyko. That
surprise statement, which upset
the Egyptians as much as the
Israelis and aroused a sharp
domestic American backlash
against the Carter Adminis-
tration, called for a reconvened
Geneva Peace Conference under
joint U.S.-Soviet chairmanship.
The document called for such a
conference "not later than
December 1977."

Hut the Americans should ask
themselves. Israeli experts on
Arab affairs say, whether the
massive supply of arms to the
Saudis is indeed the best way to
achieve that objective or whether
it could prove to be a disaster.
These experts fear that the
U.S. has not learned the lesson
of several decades of military
and diplomatic mishaps which
resulted from arming and other-
wise supporting corrupt or un-
popular regimes and rulers. They
cite as examples Cuba, Vietnam,
Libya and North Yemen where,
after the pro-American rulers
were overthrown in popular up-
risings or coups, the American
weapons were used against the
U.S. or its Western allies and
their interests.

surrounding the seizure of the

assassinations on personal or

royal household and court and
the presence of Moslem religious
fanatics who are infuriated by
the monarchy's attempts to
westernize the country, all pose
potential dangers.
The country is volatile because
85 percent of its population is

Holy War in Foreign Lands *"
By RABBI MARC H. TANENBAUM
A Syrian diplomat who differs with the policies of
his government is gunned down by an assassin's bullet.
A Turkish leader is assassinated by fanatic Muslim hit-
squads. Paris has become a battleground between Arab
terrorists, representing different national ideologies. In
one week, Ayatollah Khomeini has executed more than
50 Iranian dissidents. At the United Nations, the PLO
and its allies introduce resolutions whose clear purpose is
to call for the destruction of Israel and the dismember-
ment of Jerusalem as a unified city.
Thus, the new wave of Islamic fanaticism has in-
troduced an unprecedented pattern of incendiary rhetoric
and 'verbal violence in the international atmosphere.
These growing violent episodes make clear that we need
to prepare ourselves to confront a whole new cultural
style in foreign relations. We are in fact witnessing the
return of the jihad, the holy war, to relations between
nations and peoples.
The jihad dates back to the Medinan period of
Mohammed and justified armed warfare in the vigorous
pursuit of Islamic goals. Razzias, making raids on neigh-
boring tribes, was a common feature of Arabic tribal life.
The distinction between inner peace for the Muslim world
dar-al-Islam and outer war for the infidels dar-el-
harb remains as sharp today as in the 7th Century.
Now one can begin to understand what the Western-
oriented Israelis have had to cope with for more than 30
years. That verbal and physical violence now confronts
us all, and we had better firm up our moral will to face it
down in its earliest phases.

medal, also were present.
Wiesenthal was an architect
when he was seized by the Nazis
and incarcerated in concentration
camps until he was liberated by
American forces on May 5. 1945
as one of 34 prisoners out of an
original group of 149.000.
TRACING Wiesenthal's de-
votion to "build justice.'' Carter
observed that Wiesenthal set up
the Jewish Documentation
Center in Vienna where for more
than three decades he has led the
search for Nazi war criminals.
His work is being continued at
the Simon Wiesenthal Center for
Holocaust Studies at Yeshiva
University in Los Angeles.
His goal has been not just to
see justice done, not just to see
criminals punished," the
President said.
"His motive has not been to
seek revenge, but to remember
and to make certain that never
again will such a crime against
decency and civility and
humanity be committed
Carter noted that "eleven
million people were slaughtered,
six million of them Jews. Even
today, the survivors are not
spared the savagery they
escaped. They have only to close
their eyes to see it."
RECALLING Wiesenthal's
words, "I believe in God and the
world to come" and that "when
each of us comes before the six
million I will say I did not forget
you," Carter concluded to a
standing ovation "nor Simon

other blocks came over to us and
cried; some of them kissed the

Text of Letter Released
Begin Blames Cairo
For End to Talks
JERUSALEM (JTA) Israel released last week the official
text of the letter Prime Minister Menachem Begin sent recently to
Egyptian President Anwar Sadat.
As was previously leaked to the press, the letter blames Cairo
for the failure to resume the autonomy negotiations, rather than
Egypt, not Israel, has violated the peace treaty and the Camp
David Accords, charged Begin. He pointed to Egypt's vote in the
UN demanding Israel withdrawal from all the territories. "Where is
this, Mister President, written in the Camp David agreement?"
asked liegin.
IN REPLY to Egypt's support for a Palestinian self-
determination and an independent Palestinian state, Begin again
noted that some of this was mentioned in the accords. The same held
true for Israeli settlements in Judea and Samaria and the Golan
Heights, he said. They are legal, legitimate and an integral part of
Israel's security, wrote Begin. None of them will ever be removed,
Begin stated.
Begin attacked the initiative of Dr. Butros Ghali, Egyptian
Minister of State for Foreign Affairs, urging African countries not to
renew their diplomatic relations with Israel. This was an act of
hostility, as the personal attacks in the Egyptian news media
comparing Begin to Adolf Hitler and Shylock.
On the sensitive question of Jerusalem, Begin wrote: "I have
never misled you nor anybody else. Time and again I repeatedly said
that Jerusalem in its entirety is the capital of Israel, a city reunited
and indivisible for generations.
BEGIN began his 14-page letter by discussing his thoughts
after his recent heart attack and the weakness of the human body.
He wrote that it is the duty of every man who is called upon to
serve his country with a just cause to do so, as long as the heart
pumps." Begin concluded the letter noting that Sadat has already
suspended the autonomy talks four times. He called on Sadat to
refrain from any further suspensions. "Let us renew the negotiations
despite differences of opinion."
According to reports from Cairo Monday, Sadat was working on
a new response letter, and the indication is that the talks will not be
resumed soon.
