An outrageous comparison The President of the United States has likened Iraq's leader, Saddam Hussein, as comparable to Adolph Hitler. TUa is an outrageous comparison. Hussein is a murdoous dictator who has no compulsicni about using poiscm gas or any other means of destnxtion to win a war. 1^ conqMuisoo, if UMTO is ooe, should end there. Many of the world's present-day dictatcvs have demonstrated the c^Mudty to equal Huss^ in acts of terrorism and acts of war. So, he is not uniqua As bad gays go, he is very bad, but there are many bad guys around today who are very bad. Take the leaden of Syria and Libya for example. In many respects, they are oa a par with Hussein, but none ' of them, as far as Jews are conoMned can occupy the same niche in histoty reserved for Hitler. To compare the Imp leader with the madman who penetrated the Holocaust demeans the deaths of six millioo Jews who ware exterminated solely for their religious identificstion. Although maqy additional milliona perished because of Adolph Hitlsr. the Jewish experience was a unique tragedy never heion or since equaled in history. While we recognise the need for President Bush to rally the support of feUow Americans and allied nations in opposing the dsspic^Ue Hussein, we stand ready to caution him on the cymparison with Hitler. For Jews, Hitler is the most obscene viUain that one can imagins. Hitler's ptaoe in histoty is interiocked with the catastrophic fate of the Jewish people and that is that HasMin abeady has earned a [dace in the history bofts but whirther he ranks bdow or above Attila the Hun is up for debate. So, Mr. PresMant. 1st ms suggest that you stick to your original declaration of standing tall in the face of aggression. baq must leave Kuwait vohmtarily or be forced out.

Kahane, though villified by many, remembered as protector of Jews By Em WoUgeleniter NEW YORK (JTA)lUbbi Meir Kahane, the fonner Knosaet member and Jewish Defense Lesgue foondo- who was assassinated Monday ni^t, waa eukgiaed Tuesdi^ in Brooklyn as a man who stood tqi for Jewish pride and prbidples. "He was the second Moshs Rabbeinu—Moses took the Jews out of Egypt and Kahane took the Jews out of sntiSemitk countries," sdd Bernard Bericowits, 58, a mourner at the service. Only a 1^ hundred people were able to enter the small Orthodox Young Israel synagogue, where Kahane spdra in the early years of the JDL. The service was broadcast to the crowd outside, estimated by police at around 2,000. llie crowd frequently broke jpto applause and loud i ~ Kahane was as a great man, teacher and pr the Jews. The 58-yeaMfQ firebrand oratqpr who was deified and vilified with equal fervOT by suppmters and detractors alike, was gunned down by a 34)rear-old Arab on Monday night at the condusion of an hourlong lecture he gave to a group of some 60 supporters at a midtown Manhattan hotd. El-Sayyld. .Noa«ir. a naturalized dtizen originally from Egypt was listed in critical but stable condition at Bellevue Hospital on Tuesday, where he underwent surgery for a gunahot wound to the chin. Nosair was injured in a short gun battle with a police officer from the U.S. Poetal Service as lie fled the hotd and tried to escape in a taxL "I was standing next to Kahane," Shann<m Taylor, a doae friend and one of Kahane's American lawyers, told the Jewish Telegraphic Agency. "He had just stefiped down from the podium after taking questions for an hour. I heard a bang, then I turned and aaw a man nmning away with a gun," Taylor said. Another man was wounded as the gunman fled. The alleged assassin, who poUoe s«y acted alone, was chargsd with murder, attempted murder and criminal possession of a weapon. He had not yet been arraigned, although police said arraignment can take place in the hospital. The assailant, who worked for New York's Depwtment of General Senrices as an air conditioning and heating maintenance worker, apparently stood up at the end of the questkm-and-answer session and fired two shots from dose range, hitting Kahane in the head. Kahane and the others
.waundad.,wiK« rushed to
Bellevne, wbvs Kahane wasjuondtinoed daad at 9:fi7 pjb. At the hoq>ital, humbads d people, scnnB carrjring Israeli flags, gathered at the emeivency room entrance as news of the shooting spread throoi^hout the area. One observer said he feared for the consequences. "I'm sure there wiO be suns ^pe of retaUation for thia murder," he said. "It wiU be bad tidings for everyone." At the funeral, a mix of people including Orthodox uad secular, the old and young; surged against p«dice barlicndes in a futOe attempt to follow the plain coffin drqied with a black ydvet cover. Supporters of the JDL handed out fliers calling en people to continue Kahane's wwk: "A bullet cannot stop us. It must not stop us," it said. Rabbi Herbert Bomzer, spiritual leader of the synagogue, said, "The death of a tSMlik is equal to the burning of the Beit Migdash (Sdomon's Ten^de), and a Bdt Migdash was burnt by an Arab bullet. Rabbi Meir Kahane waa a frioid, a talented leader, a fighter, a giant a great writer.'" he.said m a edogy interspersed with Hdirew phrases. Tbs coffin wss csrried out nnder darkened skiee, with helicctiters hovering overhndDosena of police officers stood on Ocean Parinrqr, which waa shut off to traffic. The coffin was draped with an Israeli flag as it was carried out of the synagogue on the shoulders of s diuen men, who could bsre^ reach the hearse in the face of hundreds of people crowding around them and the synsgogue gates. As the hearse finally pulled away, people waved Israeli flags, chanting "Am Yisrad ChaL" Others clenched their fists and shouted "An eye for an eye" in Hebrew, and "Never againi" Hundreds followed the hearse on foot, as it pulled down the parkway toward Kennedy Airport Tht body waa to be flown to Israel on a 7:30 El Al flight Kahane was to be buried Wednesday at Har Hamenuhot cemetery on Jerusalem'a Mount of OUves. CoinddentsUy, Kahane's father^law died in Israd on Monday night of natural causes. The outspoken Kahane, whose political platform ca^ed for the transfer of Arsbo from insUe Israd to bQrond ills administered territoriee, was largdy ostraclzsd by the mainetream Jewiah eetabliahmant, both here and in Israel, for his radkal politkal views. "I had a lot of admiration for his willingness to ask tbs hardest questions," sakl Alan Darshowitz, a law professor at Harvard University who defended
Kahans a munber of times over the years. "Mdr Kahane aaksdsams of the best qoestkms of any Jewiali leader in modem histoty and gave soms of the most dangierous answers. 1 disagrsed fundamentally with his answers, but I defended his right to say them," Dershowitz said in an interview. It was that ri^t to say what he fdt that made Kahane a pariah in most di^ des. After having been dected to Israd's Knesset in 1964, Kahane was later thrown out for advocating what Israeli courts declared were racist views. He was also barred from appearing in many synagogues around the United SUtes. "Part oftheUame (for the assassination) lies with those who wanted to censor him," Dershowitz said. "Jews and non-Jews who wanted to censor him bear some mord responsibility for starting down a path that inevitably leads to this." The militant leader first gained nationd iHominenoe in 1068 in New York, where he founded the Jewish Defense League, with a clenched fist as its symbol and "Never Againi" as its dogan. "They were good days," said GO-yearoU Bertnm Zwdbon, a co-founder of the JDL who knew Kahane for close to 30 yesrs. "We set out to arwnplish certain objoci|v«e, and l^and-by we were relatively succeasfiiL One was to raise the levd of Jewish pride, so that the phydcd assault on Jewa, iridch were on the rise in 1968-1969 when JDL was founded, could be properly prevented. "Second, the question of the Jewaimpriaoned in various lands, the Soviet Union in particular. He could not sleep, none of us could, who grew up in the shadow of the 9ioah and let it happea "Let it happen again and do nothing? So we ^ aomething, those of us who heard that different shofar," Zwdbon said in an interview. Jewish organizational leaders on TuMday univer sally depkired the assassination, regardless of politicd persuadon. "We rejected Rabbi Kahane's views and found them to be repuldve precisely becsnse ws believe the use of force end violence is intolerable and despicable, regardless of the ptriiticd perspectives of the par ties," the American Jewish Congrsss sdd in a statement. "We have had frequent occadon in the past to criticize the acts and policies of Rabbi Kahane and the JDL. But the way to repd abba?rent Meas is to expose them as fallacious and illconcdved, not through mur der and terrorism," the group sdd. Rabbi Marc Angd, president of the RabUnicd Council of America, the rabbinic arm of Orthodox Jewry, issued a statement saying, "1 believe it wu Kierkegaard
who said that when a tyrant dies his rule ends; but when a martyr dies, his rule begins. An Arab assassin has now made a martyr of Rabbi Mdr Kahane. "Tliis hrarifying act of violence, thoo^ will only serve to strengthen the movement which Kahane headed Kahane had long ar gued that Jews simply cannot trust Arabs. The assassin, in the minds of many, will have justified Kahane's ideology." Sholom Comay, president of the American Jewish Committee, issued a statement saying, "Deqiite our conskkrabie difierences, Meir Kahane must dways be remembered for the do^an, 'Never Again,' which for so many became the batr tie cry of post-Hdocaust Jewry." TheStadmt Struggle for Soviet Jewry said in its statement "Althou^ we disagreed from our beginning in 1964 most strongly with Rabbi Kahane over the use of violence to achieve freedom fat Soviet Jews, the historic fact dearly remains that he brouj^t tlidr plight dramatically to world attention. Rd>bi Kahane strode where many others feared to tread." Rabbi Sholom Klaas, editOT and publisher of the Jewish PTMS, where Kahane had written a weekly cohmm for 20 years, said. "Meir Kahane Was a man with a dream, that his people could dwdl in peace in their ancsSted homdand, the Holy Land, the land of Israel, of Jerusdem He died for that dream." New York Mayor David Dinkins callsd the killing "sn intemationd tragedy that shocks us slL Meir Kahane devoted his lifo to the defense of the State of Israd and the support of the Jewish religion. He has paid the ultimate sacrifice for his dedication to his prindples." In Los Angelee, local supporters and opponents echoed feelings of shock at the murder of Kaliane, who was scheduled to speak there on Sunday. One supports waa Irv Rubin, an early diadple of Kahane, who succeeded him as national chairman of the Jewish Defense Lesgue in 1986. Although Rubin had eX' pressed dissgreement with some of his mentor's tactics in recent years, he praised Kahane'a "legacy to Jewry. Jews are no longer submisdve because of what he taught. He changed the Jewish mentality and forced the Jewiah leadership to face unoomfortaUe fads." At a newa confiriaoa called by the Los Angeiss chapter of Kach International, a speaker compared Kahane'a fate to that of Presidents John Kennedy and Abraham Lincoln, whose assassinationa assured their historicd greatness.

Or maybe "Why doesn't Batulbqiy do something rsaOy important, instead of thismishagoss?" The article was idx>ut foccess in a hitherto unheard of event. Now here I have to be delicate, but I guess we're all old enough not to get hysterical at the word menopause. Anyway, let me get to the point
Edythe Wolf, director of the JewisET Federation libnry, aaid that the book sale wfD offer a wide variety of books of Jewish interest along with a cascade of toys, games, pnules and cassettee for your little one just in time for Hsaukkah.
The article told about science finding a way for a womenpast menopause to have a baby. Now I ask you, (and especially if you fall into that age group), who cares? And futhermore, who wants to bww how? And why don't they spend their time on something really earthshaking, like curing a dreaded disease. I could tdl thoee research experts there are some things we really don't want to know about, tot my part, this is an example Now don't accuse me of being unaware that women are having ib^ chiklren at an older age these days. I already know about it, but give me a break. Some things are, shall we say, age ann^oipte and some tilings just aren't. By me, the lady taking her first (or maybe last or only) child to kindergarten when she's in her mid-fifties is just this aide ol hidicrous. Now wait a miante—if this fits a descriptian of you, don't call me names. Thwe are exceptions to svaty rule, naturally. I remember my Bible well enou^ to know about Sarah, but I have to be hraMSt, I have as much trouble with her story as I do with Jonah. WeD, anyway, that doesn't have aitythkig to.do with my original pramise. And I still tJiink that while many yearn for a chfld and would take it any time th^ get it, i)ost-menopaDsal is stretdiing pretty far. And while I think it's fantastic the way tbey can grow stuff in a lab, this is another story. So aside from the fact that I'm very opinionated and d<m't mind shooting my mouth off about nearly anything, what can I say? You don't have to agree with me about this either. But wouldn't you agree with this: finding a way for young people to have an easier tinw increasing their fsmilies is more important?—that is, if you didn't abeady dedde thoee people ought to be c<nioentrating on a cure for the conmum cold, at least

I was awalcMied in the middle of the night by loud noiaee. It took me a mommt to teaHae I waan't dreaming. I looked at the dock. It was two in the moning.

I have no idea if what I aaw out my bedroom window was gang related or not All I know it that I was scared. The laat few months I have followed the news about the inoeaaing gang activities in Omaha with the thought "Wen I'm gM it's not my nei(^borhood" or as one TV ad pate it "Wdl, it's not my kid." But it is. The gangs and fii^ting in Omaha are ervetyone's problem. Unfortunately I can't offer any aoggestions or snswers. But be aware. Talk to your parents or your teachers about gangs. Let's not attow gangs to reach mythkal proportkns because we don't tak about them. M«ybe that's the first step in dissolving them. But just talk won't make them disappear.
