By Roth B. Grubcr ROME (JTA)-Yugoslavia's snuin Jewish community was in a state of high tension and under tii^t security after bombs eroded early Monday morning at the eotranoe to the Jewish community center and at the Jewish CMOMtery in Zsgreb, ci^tital of tlw CroaUan republic, where dvil strife has been rampant in recent weeks. Then were no casualties but considerable damage, according to Jewish coinmunity sources. Shortly after the bombings, the tiny Jewish community in the Adriatic coast dty of Duteovnik recdved an anonymous tdq>hone warning that "yon wfll be next." The Jewidi community leadersh^ in Zagrsb met in onergency seadon immediately, aa did Yugoslavia's Federation of Jewish Communities, based in Belgrade, which is in ndf^iboring Serbia. The Jewish Historicd Museum in Belgrade, the
national capital, was dosed to the public Monday, and precautions were taken at Jewiah institutions elsewhere as word of the incident spread. The Federation of Jewish Communities in Yugoslavia sent a message frran Bdgrade to the World Jeidsh Congress in New Yoric and to Jewish organizations in Londcni and Paris. It reported that "an explodvB device placed behind the locked door of the Jewish community building in Zagreb, Croatia, went off shortly after 4 a.m." locd time. The message, signed by AJflksandar Mode, deputy preddent, and Lud Petrovic, secretary, said, "There are no casualtiee but heavy materid damage." According to reports reaching here, the bomb blaat at the Zagreb community oentw, an imposing bnOding in the heart of the dty, smaabed windows and damaged cars parked nearby. But ths pricelees
library housed in the center was unscathed. Damage at the Jewiah cemetery, which occupies a section of the dty's sprawling munidpd cemetery, was not immediately specified. The attack sent shudders through Yugoslavia's small Jewish community and put Jewish institutions in a state of dwt. "So it begins," Jewiah scholar Eugen Werber sdd in a tdephone caU from Belgrade. "I am not a prophet, but I knew something like this would happen," Werfoer sdd, referring apparently to the troubled times in Yugoslavia, marked by bloody fighting between Croata and Serbs. The bombing brou^t strong reactioas from Jewish leaders abroad. In New York, Israd Singer, secretaiy-generd of Uie WJC, sent a message to Zagreb, expressing shodc and horror. "We are with you in your time of trid and are at your disposd if there is anything
you fed we %an do," he told the community leadership. Rabbi Arthur Schnder, preddent of the Apped of Consdence Foundation in New York, called on Croatia's politicd and religious leaders to condemn the outrage and "act to prevent such tragedies in the future." The Croatian government implied at a Zagreb news conference after the bombings that Serbs were responsible. "That is ridiculous," sdd a Serbian Jew. About 6,000 Jews live in Yugoslavia, mostly in Zagreb, Belgrade and Sarajevo. The Jewish population before World War II was 80,000, of whom 66,000 perished in the Hdocaust. Nad Germany, which invaded Yugodavia in the spring of 1941, set up a puppet state in Croatia governed by the-fascist Ustashe, Croatian nationalisto, who conducted a bloody persecution of the country's Jews.

By Rabbi Myer S. Kripke © 1991 Piradiat Kl Tetse On humane warfare The phrase "humane warfare" ia an obvious ozymoitm. NcHnethelees, it is used. It ia the aubject whether the term ariaee or not in convoitipns such as Uie Geneva Conventions about what ia "proper" and what ia improper in warfrffe. Nuclear wemwns? Germ warfare? Nerve gaa, and other lethal, noidooa gaaea? If a phraae Uke "alam the door quieUy" is sli^Uy cmnical, ao ia the phrase "humane warfore." ^t the latter ia ominous and frightening. Can human beings really Idn each other and maiin ewh other—gently? llie Torah legialatkn—to show how QU this is—turns now and again to featrictiona on warfare. One of the moot unuaual, and most interesting, ia the one that opens our Sidrah. A soldier who ia captivated by the beauty of a female captive is sharply reminded that ahe ia a human being. Sht ia entitled io humane treatment According to the Tmtdi law, abe must be given a monUi to contemplate her new aituation, to mourn for her (preanmably) dead parenta, to adUuat to being a captive. Before ti» man may take her, she is to do something (what?) to her hahr and to her nails. And after all of tiut he most make her his wife, not ainqify a woman subject to hia whima. lliia aounda, of courae, more idealiatic that practical, more ideal than practiced It is aaytaig very much, however, to find it the subject of aeriona retigtoua legislation, to find it in the Torah. AU of thia raninda me of my feding of guilt for not contributing to Amneaty International. My wife and I contribute aman amounta to akatey-eight "do-gooder" organiaationa and health funda aiul what not. (My father need a diffmnt term, "farty-elavan," for thia undetermined Ug number.) Why not Amneety International? It ia ainqily that I cannot at<nnach their annual complaint agafost larael and ita ndUtary, for "attodtiea," evidence for which is derived entirdy from Arab teetimony. I l(ave np doubt titat in tha.hiiiit.«(ji|Qtaigr encounter, and even m momenta when ti» boat haa cooled off, but combatanta remember family loeaee to terrorists and omaidv the atrodtiee planned by tororista, that aome violationa of "humane warfare" have taken place. But fai general: There probabty haa been no armed forces ori^mization in hiatory aa conadous of the demanda of humanitarianiam aa the IDF. Further, there probably haa been no more human "ocoqiation" in history of territory haUby one force, after invaakn from that tatritory by another force with murderoua intent than the laraeli admfaiintration of the Weet Band and Gaia. For immadiata oonpariaui, think, back to the Ira^ invaakm (not daimael) of Kuwait and tha piUage, aabotage, rape« murder aid torture of "pother" Arabe. There ia an Arab aomewhere in Gasa waUdng around with a heart tranaplanted in an laraal hoapital-a heart |aken from an laraali murdered by Arab ternvista.

The 12-page July/August issue of the tsbloid am)eared recently in Monr treal and at several locations in the nearby eastern townships. Its front-page article details the Klan's expsnsion into Csnada and accuses Jews of trying to break up the country.

NEWYORK-RabbiOer son D. Cohen, wliooe 13year term as rhanosllor of the Jewish Theological Seminary of America was cspped by the decision to ordain mmm as Consei^ vative rabbis, died fa the early hours of Shabbat, the 7th <rfEhd 6761. Aug. 16. He was 66 years old and had been in for some time. Dr. Cohen was the fifth person to head the Seminary, the apiiltual and academic center of Conservative Judaism. He suooeeded Rabbi Louis Finkslstafa SB chancellor fa July 1072. Failing health forced him to step down on July 1, 1986. He was suooeeded by Rabbi Ismar SchorscL Cohen, who Uked to describe himself as a "fortunate melamed" (religious teacher), did not consider the 1984 dedsion to ordafa women as the most significant aehievement of hb tsnure. It wss too controveraial and divisive, heonceaaplained. Actually, Gdun was vehemently oiqxioed to the move iriiBn it wss first raised fabis sixth year at the Seminary's helin. "At that time (1978), I hoped the issue wouU be studied properiy and defeated," he told an fater viewer fa 1986. "Religion is committed to traditkn." he explained, "and we'ra committed to halacha (Jewish law) and to those usages that have been so accepted as to carry halachir weight" Ordaining women, bs believed at the time, vkilatad that princ^iie. A commission, reprssent ing ths full range of Conservative Judafam's religious, political and geo-
grifjhfcddistribtttkin, was sst «q> by Cohen to study the question and, he hoped, to nject it. "The first real witness was a waOrlmown rabbinic authority I had hoped would kSl the iaaue once and for aU," Cohen said. "As a result of qusstionfag him and,his pofat of view, I was spleen. We began to disHHsi prindplss rather than correct polttka. I was converted to the moral rectitude and halachic validity for this dungs." Fnfa that pofat on, Cohan yiii an ardent supports of the move and among the most vocal Among the achievements Cohen did list amoqg his succeosy was the buflding of tlie new Senunary Library, wliich houses the most outstanding collection of Judaica outside Israel, induding 270,000 volumes, 16,()00 manuscr^ and oodkiee, 40,000 Gadzah frsgmanto, and thousands irf rare documents and prfats.
