  Field trip right on target for cancer patient

PETACH TIKVAH, Israel (Press Release)—For many Israelis, service in the Israel Defense Forces is the ultimate test of manhood.  Like his peers, Yonatan, a teenager from Jerusalem, was eager to join the army.  But tragedy struck, and instead of defending his country, Yonatan is today battling cancer. 

At age 20, he is a severely ill young man waiting desperately for a bone marrow transplant.  The only time he leaves home is to go to the hospital.  The staff of Oranit, Ezer Mizion's Guest Home for Children with Cancer, has attempted to involve Yonatan in some of the activities it sponsors for sick youngsters, but he has refused to take part, As the cancer has taken over his physical life, depression has clouded his emotional being.

In keeping with its motto of Their Challenges…Our Mission, Ezer Mizion did not give up. The solution came when Yonaton’s mother called Yumi Dzialowsky, a senior member of the Oranit staff.  "The only thing that might possibly get Yonatan to leave his bed is to take him to a shooting range," she suggested.  "He was so much looking forward to joining the army.  This might simulate the army experience. But the suggestion has to come from you, not from me." 

Yumi initiated contact with Yonatan, who for the first time showed interest in what he had to say.  "I'm taking you to a shooting range tomorrow," Yumi stated.  "Be ready at 9 o clock."   Due to his weakened condition, Yonatan needed to be transported in an ambulance. Ezer Mizion was not daunted. Yumi simply contacted Ezer Mizion’s Ambulance Division and explained the situation. A professionally outfitted ambulance with a driver experienced in the needs of the ill was at Yonaton’s doorstep the next morning, destination: a shooting range in Netanya.  The young man spent close to two blissful hours shooting with live ammunition.  "He did better than I did," said Yumi.  "He hit all the targets and was ecstatic."  Afterwards the two enjoyed a delicious dinner in an elegant restaurant in the city. 

Yonatan's mom called Yumi the next day. "He was a different person when he returned," she exulted.  "You can not imagine what this did for him.  For the first time in a very long while, he showed some hope and interest in the future."

Europe

Hitler privately listened to Jewish musicians

MOSCOW—Adolf Hitler’s private record collection reportedly included works by Jewish and Russian composers and artists who were branded by himself and his fellow Nazis as "subhuman."

A recently discovered record collection of the German dictator included a Tchaikovsky violin concerto featuring the Jewish violinist Bronislaw Huberman, who fled from Vienna in 1937 and was labeled as an enemy of the Third Reich.

Music by other Russian composers such as Borodin and Rachmaninoff was also found in Hitler's record collection, which was discovered by Lev Bezymensky, a Soviet intelligence officer who had been ordered to search Hitler’s Chancellery after Berlin fell to the allies in 1945.

Bezymensky, took the records back to Moscow where he kept them secret. His daughter decided to open them after her father’s death last month. Hitler despised Jewish music, writing in his book ‘Mein Kampf’ that Jewish art had "never existed." The Nazis banned most music by Jewish composers as “Entartete Musik” [degenerate music].

Kaliningrad new haven for old scourge of Nazism

PARIS (Press Release)— In a letter to Kaliningrad Governor, Mr Georgiy Boos, the Simon Wiesenthal Centre's Director for International Relations, Dr Shimon Samuels, explained how "long intrigued by the impact of the European Union's encirclement of the Russian enclave of Kaliningrad - the size of Belgium and the Netherlands," he spent last weekend in this city.

The letter continued, "Expecting enhanced development and an enlightened model for mainland Russia,  I was deeply shocked to discover only 100 meters from the city's largest hotel - the Kaliningrad - the bookshop 'Knizhni Mir' (though registered on its purchase receipt as 'Baltiskiy Variant') at Ul. Zhitomirskaya, corner Leninsky Prospekt."

Samuels described how "the saleslady, Galina, enthusiastically explained:
'We specialize in books on Nazism and the Jewish-Masonic conspiracy', adding that 'my Director, Alexander Viktorevich, distributes this literature widely in Kaliningrad, especially editions for children.'"

He added, "On my two visits that day to both purchase and photograph a selection of the offending texts, especially notable was the presence of large numbers of teenage Russian clients."

Samuels noted that "on the other hand, the nearby Hotel Kaliningrad was bustling with elderly German guests on weekend train excursions. My brief conversations with five of these tourists would best describe them as 'pilgrims' to the pre-Soviet annexed territory of the Reich then called Konigsberg - a city once renowned for its imperial grandeur. Hotel staff confirmed that groups included 1945 expellees, many of whom sought directions to their lost properties."

The letter stressed to the Governor the irony that "in land liberated by the Red Army from the scourge of Fascism, Nazi-period German visitors are met - in Russian - with the hate propaganda of the Fuhrer!"

Attached photos showed a selection by the sales assistant Galina of the books on sale (she added that the classic "Protocols of the Elders of Zion" and Henry Ford's "The International Jew" were "currently out of stock"):

- Yuri Kozenkov, Golgotha Rossi Zavoyevatila (Russian Golgotha Conquerors:
Zionism and Masonry, 1700-1924), 2006.
- Oleg Platonov, Voina protiv Antichrista (The War Against the Anti-Christ), 2006.
- Aleksei Menyaylov, Smotrite venimatelno, o Volki (Look Carefully, Wolves), 2005.
- Douglas Reed, Spor o Sione (Argument on Zion), 2005.
- Otto Neugard, Poldeni Magov (Noon of the Magi), 2004, a conspiracy theory regarding 9/11.
- Grigori Klimov, Imya Moye Legion (In the Name of My Legion), 2004.
- Viktor Ivanov, Bad People Out (Russian title unclear), 2001.
- A.Vesti, Buratino: Na Stupenyakh Masonskogo Khrama (Pinocchio: Steps to the Masonic Temple), 2004, a conspiracy theory regarding 9/11.

Samuels expressed amazement to learn that "a local Jewish complaint to the Kaliningrad Public Prosecutor, in regard to these sales, led to a demand for 65,000 Roubles to launch an investigation." He asked, "are we to therefore understand that the criminal justice system of the Kaliningrad region has been privatized?"

He continued, "In any case, an investigation is hardly necessary as Mr Viktorevich displays his hate materials on the shelves openly."

The Centre urged the Governor "to close Viktorevich's outlets forthwith and begin prosecution proceedings for his violation of the Constitution of the Russian Federation on grounds of incitement."

A copy of this request was sent to the Federal Public Prosecutor of the Russian Federation in Moscow to investigate Viktorevich's Federal and international links and outreach.

Samuels concluded, "Mr Governor, your silence on this matter would dishonour the memory of the millions of Soviet victims in the war against Nazism - an ideology that targeted both the Jewish and the Russian peoples."

Benedict XVI meets with Tadeusz Rydzyk

ROME (Press Release)—Pope Benedict XVI has received members of a Polish delegation that included Tadeusz Rydzyk, the owner of the controversial Polish radio station ‘Radio Maryja’. The Redemptionist priest has repeatedly come under fire for anti-Semitic broadcasts and a recent attack on Polish president Kacynski and his wife.

According to a report in a Polish newspaper that is part of Rydzyk’s media group, the group of Polish pilgrims was received by the Pope at his summer residence, Castel Gandolfo, near Rome. The paper ‘Nasz Dziennik’ reports that the Pope thanked the listeners of Radio Maryja for their prayers for him and gave his blessing to the radio station and its work. The Vatican confirmed the meeting, but refused to comment on its meaning. The Pope was free to receive whoever he wanted in private audience, a Vatican spokesman told journalists in Rome.

Last year, anti-Semitic broadcasts by Radio Maryja caused considerable concern in the Vatican, which demanded the intervention of Polish church officials. The church set up a supervisory committee but has since failed to significantly alter the programming of the ultra-conservative broadcaster. In his most recent outburst, Rydzyk attacked the Polish government led by the twin Kacynski brothers of “selling out to Jews” and called the Polish first lady a “witch."

ADL seeks papal denunciation of Father Rydzyk

NEW YORK (Press Release)—The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) has called on Pope Benedict XVI to publicly denounce the continued anti-Semitic statements being espoused by a controversial priest and radio personality in Poland.

ADL, which has long protested about Radio Maryja, the Catholic radio station known for its anti-Semitic broadcasts, wrote to the Pope following the pontiff's private meeting with Father Tadeusz Rydzyk, founder and director of Radio Maryja.

In a letter to Benedict XVI, Abraham H. Foxman, ADL National Director, expressed deep concerns that by meeting with Rydzyk and keeping silent about the issue of anti-Semitism "you have unfortunately lent him the priceless credibility of your office and integrity in the eyes of the world."

Foxman noted that, "As the founder and director of Radio Maryja, Father Rydzyk is responsible for the anti-Semitic comments and concepts the station regularly broadcasts to millions of Polish Catholic faithful," and "Father Rydzyk himself has on several occasions made anti-Semitic statements on the air. These are despicable anti-Semitic remarks that must be strongly and publicly condemned by all leaders and people of good will.

"We respectfully request that you publicly condemn the anti-Semitism that is being spouted by Father Rydzyk and other Catholic leaders in Poland."

In his most recent diatribe against Jews, Father Rydzyk reportedly accused Jews of greed in a potential government compensation deal on confiscated property, and denounced Poland's President, Lech Kaczynski as a "fraudster who is in the pockets of the Jewish lobby." 

In a macabre coincidence, the Pope's meeting with Rydzyk took place at the same time that hundreds of gravestones were being desecrated and defaced with anti-Semitic graffiti in one of the largest Jewish cemeteries in Poland, in Czestochowa.

Wiesenthal Center hopes Pope will tell what
transpired at last Sunday's meeting with Rydzyk

LOS ANGELES (Press Release)—The Simon Wiesenthal Center today reiterated its call to the Vatican to discipline Polish Catholic leader Father Tadeusz Rydzyk for anti-Semitic remarks, following an AP report that the Pope briefly met with the controversial priest this past Sunday at the papal summer residence. Comments by Rydzyk denouncing the Polish government for being “in the pockets of the Jewish Lobby” by delivering a $65 million restitution package to Polish Holocaust survivors, were made public last month.

In a letter to His Holiness Pope Benedict XVI, Rabbi Marvin Hier, founder and dean of the Wiesenthal Center, wrote that he hoped had used the meeting as an opportunity to rebuke Rydzyk, because, “as a priest who reaches millions of people through radio and television, he speaks not only for himself, but for his Church as well.” Hier then wrote, “if that was the purpose of the meeting, then I believe the Holy See did the right thing and should make the rebuke public as an important example to anti-semites around the world that the Church will never tolerate hate speech, especially hate speech uttered by a man of G-d.”

Such a public rebuke would help the efforts of Pope Benedict XVI and his predecessor John Paul II to improve relations between Catholics and Jews. “Otherwise,” said Rabbi Hier, “ I'm afraid the Vatican would be sullying its reputation by granting legitimacy to an unrepentant bigot who will claim that rather than being admonished, he was honored to receive the Pope's blessing. When Rydzyk’s anti-Semitic remarks were made public last month, the Wiesenthal Center launched a petition campaign last month that generated over 25,000 signatures calling on Rydzyk’s superiors to discipline him.   

The Simon Wiesenthal Center is one of the largest international Jewish human rights organizations with over 400,000 member families in the United States. It is an NGO at international agencies including the United Nations, UNESCO, the OSCE, and the Council of Europe.

New West End Synagogue cited as historic building

LONDON (Press Release)—A synagogue in the UK has been recognized as one of the country’s most important buildings. The New West End Synagogue in Bayswater, London, has been given a ‘Grade I’ listing putting it in the top three per cent of the country’s historic buildings. “The New West End Synagogue is the architectural high-water mark of Anglo-Jewish architecture,” Simon Thurley, Chief Executive of English Heritage said.

When it opened, in 1879, the Synagogue was a major statement on behalf of London’s Jewish community. Older 19th-century synagogues had been built to look like Christian churches, or the buildings that surrounded them, as if their designers were reluctant to draw attention to them. But by the late 1870s, leaders of the Jewish community in London’s West End felt more secure. Most official forms of anti-Jewish discrimination had been lifted. It was 20 years since the law began allowing practicing Jews to become MPs, an anglicized Jew, Benjamin Disraeli, was Prime Minister, and most of London’s congregations were joined under the United Synagogue.

The New West End Synagogue is the second synagogue in the UK to receive a Grade 1 listing. The other is the UK’s oldest synagogue, the Bevis Marks, opened in 1701 in Bishops-gate, London.

●Anti-Semitic web posting roils cricket world

MELBOURNE, Australia— A recent web site posting allegedly originating from from a local cricket club, has raised concerns about rising incidence of  anti-Semitism in Australia.
   
A member of the suburban Beaumaris Cricket Club BBC) posted  highly anti-Semitic remarks directed at the Maccabi AJAX Cricket Club  on the social networking website, Facebook.
 
BBC President Tony Mellick has said no disciplinary action will be  taken against Alex Strauch, 23, instead favouring what he described  as an "educative" approach.

Strauch made his racist comments relating to the Holocaust on a  Facebook page called "FU AJAX Cricket Club.  "Being of German  heritage, I think I need to apologise for Ajax Cricket Club to still  be in existence, my grandparents tried to get them all.. but it's
easier said than done when they are walking around in sewers looking
for change," Strauch wrote.
The page also contained anti-Semitic  remarks posted by several players from another suburban cricket club. But while Strauch and other contributors to the web page may escape
club-imposed penalties, the comments have raised the ire of Cricket  Victoria - the state controlling body - CEO Tony Dodemaide, who  branded the contributors as "morons", who "tainted not only their  clubs, but cricket in general. We are totally shocked that this could
happen in the cricket community," Dodemaide said.

"Racial and religious vilification has nor place in cricket Victoria  or Australia and those who propagate materials such as this have no place in our competitions," he said.

●Extradition trial date moves closer for Zentai

PERTH, Australia— Charles Zentai will learn next month when he will face an extradition
hearing over his alleged involvement in war crimes in his native  Hungary during WWII.

The Perth Magistrate Court this week set a trial allocation date for  September 25, when the date for the extradition hearing will be  determined. Hungary is seeking extradition for the 85-year-old Perth resident over his role in the murder of 18-year-old Jewish youth
Peter Balazs in Budapest in 1944.

A spokesperson for the Perth Magistrates Court said that the trial is  likely to be heard sometime in 2008, depending on the magistrate's  estimate of the length of the trial, which could last several weeks.

Zentai, who denies the charges, has been fighting the extradition  request since 2005, largely citing poor health as the basis for his appeal. Australia has never successfully extradited an alleged war-criminal.

●U.S. Jewish teens camp and tour Australia

#1 A protest and the letter; did NJDC help or harm? 

(Editor's Note: In the press release below, the National Jewish Democratic Council criticizes a supporter of Congressman Mark Kirk for a letter he wrote suggesting the YearlyKos convention was a gathering place for anti-Semites.  In distributing the protest, the NJDC also distributed the supporter's letter which sets out Kirk's record on Israel and Middle Eastern matters. We recommend that you read the press release and the letter and then tell us whether if you were a voter in Kirk's district, you would be more or less likely to vote for Kirk as a result of what was presented in this material, and please explain.  If you care to comment, send us an email at sdheritage@cox.net)

WASHINGTON, D.C. (Press Release)  – The National Jewish Democratic Council (NJDC) called on Rep. Mark Kirk (Republican, Illinois) to repudiate a campaign-style email sent by supporter Andy Lappin which implies that Democratic candidates Jay Footlik and Dan Seals condoned anti-Semitic behavior by attending the YearlyKos convention earlier this month. 

Mr. Lappin’s email seeks to paint the 900 bloggers who attended the YearlyKos convention – and the hundreds of thousands of bloggers in the DailyKos online community – as anti-Semitic and anti-Israel because a handful of posters have written objectionable comments.  To defend his position, Lapin presents five comments he finds objectionable, none of which were written by Kos or his editors. 

To blame all attendees and participants in the YearlyKos convention – which was sponsored by JetBlue airlines, Warner Independent Pictures, the National Education Association, and other mainstream organizations – for objectionable comments posted by a small handful of people is the height of absurdity.  If  Lappin’s logic were applied to the Republican Party, all its presidential candidates would be deemed anti-Israel because they regularly participate in debates with anti-Israel firebrand Rep. Ron Paul  (Republican, Texas) 

“Rep. Kirk should condemn this over-the-top email sent on his behalf of his campaign by Andy Lappin,” said NJDC Executive Director Ira N. Forman. “Mr. Lappin’s email seeks to deceive voters about the strong, pro-Israel candidacies of Jay Footlik and Dan Seals and makes a ridiculous leap in logic that suggests a few inappropriate comments posted on a blog somehow represent the opinions held by hundreds of thousands of activists.  There are some on both the far right and the far left that hold anti-Israel views.   The bloggers cited by Lappin no more represent the views of most progressives than the views of Pat Buchanan or Ron Paul represent mainstream conservatives.”

#2 Removal of Jewish residents from Hebron

(Editor's Note: Our second readers forum deals with the emotionally charged issue of Jewish residency in the ancient city of Hebron, traditional site of the Cave of the Patriarchs where Abraham, Isaac and Jacob are buried.  Hebron from the viewpoint of its Orthodox Jewish residents is part of Greater Israel, the very land promised to the Jewish people by God.  On the other hand, it is located on the West Bank, within what is now the Palestinian Authority under President Mahmoud Abbas.  To start the discussion off, we would like to know do you believe the Israel Defense Force was justified in removing the Jewish residents from their homes there? Here is a link to an Associated Press story about the incident that appeared in today's San Diego Union-Tribune. If you care to comment, send us an email at sdheritage@cox.net )
 

NEW YORK (Press Release) — The Zionist Organization of America (ZOA), in a letter signed by ZOA National President Morton A. Klein, Chairman of the Board Dr. Michael Goldblatt, Chairman of Executive Committee Dr. Alan Mazurek, and Treasurer Henry Schwartz, has expressed its deep concern and opposition to the forcible expulsion of two Jewish families from their homes in Hebron's Shalhevet neighborhood on Tuesday, August 7.

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) promised permits a year and half ago to the eleven families who lived in the neighborhood, saying they would be allowed to return with legal status on the condition they left the premises peacefully. Nine of the families cooperated with the government officials, believing they would make good on their end of the deal. Attorney General Menachem Mazuz quickly voided the promise after they moved out, saying the army officials had no authority to make the agreement.

On Tuesday, three thousand Border Guards and Israel Defense Forces (IDF) personnel were deployed to remove the resisting Jewish families from their homes built on the site of the former Hebron marketplace, along with hundreds of their supporters. The Israeli forces used sledge hammers, chain saws and power cutters to break through the improvised defenses set up by the residents in anticipation of the evictions (International Herald Tribune, August 7).

Female activists reported that the personnel deployed to evict the residents deliberately tore the clothing off several women who resisted the forcible eviction. Thirteen activists were arrested during the expulsion, accused of attacking police and throwing stones. In addition, 15 police officers and 25 activists were hurt in the melee, most with light wounds. Three police officers were taken to hospital for treatment. Three young protestors were the last holdouts in a cement bunker which was eventually breached by an IDF Search and Rescue unit. The former marketplace on which the houses were built was in turn constructed on the ruins of the city's old Jewish quarter, destroyed in the massacre of the Jewish community by Arabs in 1929.  (Jump to continuation)

# 3  Holocaust history and the Bergson group

Editor, San Diego Jewish World

I am one of the 83 historians who joined the recent petition by the David S. Wyman Institute for Holocaust Studies urging the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum to add material to its exhibits about the 1940s Holocaust rescue advocates known as the Bergson Group.

I was surprised to read the statement made by my friend and colleague, Deborah Lipstadt, to the Jewish Telegraphic Agency, in which she said of the Wyman Institute:   “They sort of straddle the area between scholarship and activism.”  She also told the JTA, “I don't believe that you change things by petition.”

What’s wrong with changing things by petition?  There's no rule that says historians have to stay in their ivory towers all the time.  Signing petitions doesn't diminish their scholarship--it just shows that they care about what happens in the real world.

Two years ago, the Wyman Institute mobilized more than six hundred scholars —including me— to sign a petition supporting Prof. Lipstadt when she clashed with C-Span.  The television network wanted to broadcast a speech by Holocaust-denier David Irving to 'balance' a speech by Lipstadt.  She protested, and the Wyman Institute came to her defense—leading to C-Span's decision to cancel the Irving speech.  When we organized the petition supporting Prof. Lipstadt against C-Span, I don't recall anyone complaining that we were “straddling the line between scholarship and activism.”   On the contrary, I remember everyone being grateful that the Wyman Institute cared enough to get involved, at a time when too many other institutions and organizations were reluctant to get involved.

Sincerely,

—Dr. Alex Grobman
