It is a sad commentary on world affairs that Israel
and Jerusalem have become a safe refuge from the reality
and intimidation of terrorism. With the heads of state
exhorting their people to capitulate to the forces of
violence and destruction by not traveling abroad, you
students serve as a sober example for those of “little
faith”. We count on you to be a stabilizing factor in a sea
of insanity upon your return to the Golah.
May the learning experience of this past year strengthen
your ties to Israel and give you personally light in the
years to c o m e .!

An old Talmudic saying states: “The ambiance of
Jerusalem makes man wise” . The word avira which
literally means air does not imply only the physical air
but also the ecological conditions and spiritual significance.
Indeed, the ambiance as we may interpret it today is a
conglomeration of past and present spiritual and major
events including the establishment some sixty years ago
of the first Jewish and Hebrew University in our long
history.
The combination of being in Jerusalem and belonging
to the Rothberg School for Overseas Students which is an
integral part of the University should be considered as a
privilege and I hope that you feel that way on the eve of
your return to the US and Canada. I hope you are
carrying with you good souvenirs and wish you all the
best.

Dear Friends,
I vaguely remember a story about a bird that was given three
wishes. His first wish was that his owner would open his cage and
set him free. His second wish was that the window be opened, so
that he could fly wherever he pleased. And so he flew out the
window and soared through the sky and was happy. But after a few
hours the bird returned to his cage and requested his third wish: to
be locked in his cage again. His owner, quite surprised, asked the
bird why he desired to be locked in again. The bird replied that
now he still had something to look forward to.
And so the One-Year Program students come to Israel, spend a
year, and then return home. I like to believe that you return home
so that you’ll have something to look forward to: Coming here
again.
Early in the morning, when I get to work, my office is empty.
I stare at the piles of paperwork, then at the walls and wonder
what I’m doing here. Slowly the building begins to hum and one
feels a certain rise in the level of energy. The students have arrived
— bright, idealistic, motivated — and I no longer question my being
here. Like a shot o f adrenalin, I become infected with your energy
and feel motivated to work. For this OYPers, I want to thank you.
I often go home and think that if projects in Israel were carried out
with the same inspiration and vigor which characterized this year’s
student projects, then this country would be in a much healthier
state.
But now you’re on your way home and I’ll miss you.
Hopefully we’ll meet again. Though some of you may never return,
at least remember that, unlike the bird who used up his three
wishes in order to have something to look forward to, you my
friends, are free to come back.

When attempting to view this year in perspective, one soon
realizes that the experience of studying in Israel is an amalgamation
of tangible and intangible links that form an holistic chain.
| Jerusalem and its University are symbols of these indivisible links.
For it is Jerusalem that is at the heart of Judaism. The quest
for knowledge and understanding, as symbolized by the Hebrew
University, is as much a part of the Jewish People as its yearning
for freedom and sovereignty.
To capture the essence of these individual links and the chain
in its entirety is, perhaps, an impossible task. Prophets, poets,
travellers and theologians alike have been consumed by this
awesome challenge for as long as Jerusalem has existed. This
yearbook is part of that heritage. Its editors and contributors have
made their attempt to grasp the intangible and focus on the
tangibles that are the true substance of their experience at the
Hebrew University of Jerusalem. This volume represents a tangible
link in this historical chain and, in years to come, may serve as an
essential tool for forming even stronger bonds between you and
both the tangibles and intangibles that are synonymous with
Jerusalem.
Sometime in the future, each of you will have to grapple with
seeking a self-definition for your bond to Jerusalem and all it
symbolizes. It is my hope that the tools we have provided you with
and the opportunities we have offered you will, in some small
measure, help you to forge your own link in this eternal chain.
Moreover, I am confident that you will not only succeed in
defining your place in this chain but make a firm commitment to
the future of Israel and the Jewish People that the chain so
strikingly symbolizes.
It is of paramount importance that students like yourselves
continue to be given the opportunity to struggle with the issues,
ideas, challenges and intellectual confrontations that are part and
parcel of a year at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. I urge you
to take your place amongst the vanguard of community leaders and
activists that are fighting against the paranoia and threats to our
freedom that terrorism represents. You must do all you can to
encourage your friends, family and fellow students to maintain this
tangible link with Israel. The centrality of overseas educational
programs in Israel to the free flow of ideas between this country
and the other free nations of the world can not be over-emphasized.
You must make a commitment to continuing the chain...

The year is over and you each go your own
way. Only when you are back home will you
realize how Israeli you’ve become: sandals instead
of sneakers, some Israeli Chutzpa in your blood.
Hikers who complained after 3 miles this summer
hiked 41 miles last week! I hope I’ve succeeded to
share with you my love for this beautiful little
country. You sure have studied it thru your feet!
I wish you all the best wherever you are, but
hope to see you here again!
It’s hard to see you leave!

Wow! Is the year over already? All of you came
to Israel for your own personal reasons —in search
of your roots, to study political science, to
excavate the archeological sights, to experience the
“Miracle of the Mediterranean” , or the like. I hope
that each one of you will return home (to the USA
and Canada) with what you hoped to discover plus
much more. I know that for me, this year has been
very special. Thanx!

As the 1985-86 One Year Program winds to an end,
our thoughts turn to both days gone by and days to
follow. Jerusalem already transforms into a series of vivid
memories and recollections. Upon returning to our
respective homes, these recollections will solidify into
remembrances that will forever exist to remind us of our
year in Israel.
We all came here for varied reasons: to express
Zionist inclinations, to gain an appreciation of Judaism,
to study the Middle East, and to learn Talmud are only a
few of the reasons that brought us to this holy land. But
whatever the motivation certain things will always stick
out in our minds. For some of us, it will be the nuisance
of ulpan and shikunei Haelef; for others it will be the
8:00 bombs the morning of the ulpan final; still for
others, this year will be equated with parental admonitions
brought on by a seeming endless wave of terrorism. But
there’s still much more. Sharansky’s release, Tunisia,
Syrian threats, Tripoli, the continued plight of Soviet and
Syrian Jewry, and the “regular” attendance to classes at
Goldsmith.
As different as all these factors may appear, they are
all related by one central idea, and this brings us to the
theme of the yearbook: Freedom.
Freedom, a concept that exists as the root of nearly
all struggles, transcends all that we know and experience.
When Israel strikes out at Tunisia it strikes out to protect
the freedom of Israelis and Jews all over the world. When
the Soviet Union released Anatoly Sharansky from
behind the Iron Curtain, this not only signified the
release of an oppressed Jew, but it also symbolized the
victory of freedom over tyranny. When students picketed
the embassies seeking international support for Soviet
Jewry, this marked the ongoing battle for freedom.
Finally, when we get up in the mornings and decide to
forego the pleasures of classes we too are declaring our
freedom, by exercising the precious right of controlling
our own destinies.
For Jews the acquisition of freedom in the State of
Israel has a particularly sweet taste. But in fact the
creation of the State of Israel exists as as triumph of
mankind over the forces of injustice.
Thus when looking over this year we decided that the
recurrent and prevalent theme of freedom and all of its
significance must lie as the focus of this yearbook.

BEGINNING
ULPAN

S — is for the first authentic Israeli experience we encountered...
SHILSHUL.
U — is for many things... unattended classes, undesirable location,
unappetizing food, unclean living conditions and, o f course, our
uncivilized 28 aleph.
M — is for “M ommy” — and why wasn’t she there to feed me, clothe
me, and finance me.
M — is for Mastering the Marathon from class to Tel Aviv beach and
back to Jerusalem in tim e for some Ben Yehuda night life.
E — is for Early. Waking up before 10:00 a.m. should hereby be
declared illegal.
R — is for Race: like the one entered every morning to try to get to
the bus on tim e, to actually get on the bus, and perhaps even to
get a seat.
U — is for Ultimate parties. Shikuneh Ha-eleph in the summer is the
place to be.
L — is for Learning and Language: tw o activities that were lacking in
our summer agenda.
P — is for the Pain encountered in those numbingly cold showers
(not to m ention dirty).
A — is for... “not Another dinner party of 40 people.”
N — is for Nothing short o f amazing.

Into the Melting
Wonder Pot
Mail from friends at universities
in the States is decidedly a
privilege for those c ' who
ever get it. Still, ho\ 1 we
relate to mid-term 1 ties
since classes for us have j M i
begun? And who among us
can picture playing in p י y-
chrome leaf piles, surrounded
by olive trees as we are now?
At our end, we can describe
the m atzav here in Jerusalem
but there is only so muc
flavor we may pack into a
flimsy aerogramme. And anyhow,
the pink hue which the
sun gives to this city by the
end of a 16:00 Hebrew class
pales before the glory of U.
Scholar U .5s triumph in its
latest football game.
Many of us have concluded
that it is in our culturallybroadening
best interests to
downplay our loyalty to our school's mascot and to
master up some patriotic spirit with our Israeli fellows for
good oP Hebrew U. It is time we don Har HaTsofinPs
official colors, adore its team animal, and hang out with
our university buddies at the popular pub on campus.
First, however, we need to do a bit of research on how
to become so authentic. That may be a bit of a problem,
though, since there is no mention of school colors or of a
mascot in any of the literature generated by the
University. So, let us probe further in the best Israeli
tradition and ask the veteran academic sitting near us in
Mt. Scopus5 main library: “Excuse us for taking you
away from that interesting looking book, but do you
know what are the official colors of Har HaTsofim?”
“You mean how Library books are color coded?”
“Thank you; that’s O.K.”
“Really, the librarian can explain the system to you.”
£ “Yes, w e’ll ask him. Thanks.” We see that actually, this
is not a bad idea and so we ask the librarian behind the
info, desk, “Excuse us, have you any idea what Hebrew
University’s official colors are? That is, what the students
wear to show their spirit?” The librarian smirks.
“Khaki and cream, especially
during reserve יי.‏duty Having
been put in our place by this
bespectacled man’s remark, we
adjourn to Goldsmith,s courtyard.
There, amidst the comforting
din (whose accent is
American) we devise new
strategies for fitting into Jerusalem’s
university community.
After a few minutes, one
student among us has had
enough. He mounts the Hiking
Club information table and
challenges thusly “How can
we fit into the scene at Hebrew
University if we can ,t pledge
loyalty to a mascot or if the
only official colors are in
the library ,s book coding
system?”
Another joins in, “And it
isn’t as if Har HaTsofim’s
students are feeling so
affectionate toward their Alma Mater at present an yh ow /5
Yet, how could we picket with our Israeli brothers in
good conscience, knowing that for most of us, this study
time in Israel is kiddy-fare compared with tuition at our
home schools?
O.K. excluding money matters, there must be ways for
us to fit in here at Mt Scopus. A cogent commentator
emerges from the disgruntled masses, remarking that
standing around the Rothberg School for Overseas
process. Finally, one o f our more socially conscious
American colleagues blurts, “So, have any of us confirmed
American colleagues blurts, “So, has any of us confirmed
that there is no popular beer haven on campus?”
In fact, there is such a place, the Bar Aton — with
dancing no less — relates one of the conservatively clad
and book-laden. It is certainly a start — and a celebratory
one at that. And for those of us with Israeli roommates,
why not begin taking advantage of their authenticity?
Also, from now on, let us remain undaunted by
overbearing Har HaTsofim librarians.
Proceeding along these lines, ever more assertively, by
June we w on5t need a mascot; we will be able to cheer for
Hebrew University itself, for its sheer existence.

The hazards of only holding onto ONE pole on a moving EG G E D bus!
'
j ‏_‏Ln־־u־
I
T
I Then There's The
BUS SYSTEA
EGGED. These 5 letters are known to strike terror into
the heart of any inexperienced traveller, and are enough
to make innocent students pale as they sit waiting for the
doubtful arrival o f their respective busses. A typical ride
on an Egged bus begins at the bus stop, assuming, o f
course, that it hasn’t recently been blown up! You wait
20 minutes for the right # bus, noticing in the process
that whichever # bus you are waiting for will be the only
one which hasn’t just whizzed by (Murphy strikes again!).
When the bus finally arrives and you push your way on,
you hand the bus driver your bus ticket or som e change,
trying desperately to hang on with your other hand
(which is almost always occupied with a felafel, grocery
bag, or backpack!) Inevitably, the bus begins to move just
as soon as you trade your precious hold over gravity for a
receipt, or a little punch on your bus ticket (which is
more tim es than not, punched between tw o numbers,
thereby confusing future drivers!)
Flying down the aisle with your ticket or loose
change in one hand and your felafel in the other, your
eye spies an em pty seat in the “Guilt Zone”. (The “guilt
zone” includes the 1st tw o or three rows o f seats,
so-called because it is your moral obligation to give up
these seats to the handicapped or elderly.) As your knees
bend to sit down, the bus makes a sharp turn or an even
sharper stop, and you are thrown into your eat by sheer
force, or as I always put it so as not to risk embarrassment,
“I think I’ll sit HERE!’’ Being in the seat less than 5
minutes, a senior citizen almost always hobbles down the
aisle, and because y o u ’re in the “guilt zone,” you
graciously offer up your seat. Now you are forced to join
the throngs of faceless individuals who have the distinct
“honor” of standing on the bus!
You try to keep your balance in a one-ft.-square
space while the driver gets his thrills flying down hills at
100 kph, testing his brakes by speeding up and stopping
seconds before an intersection, and playing slolom with
moving cars. You try desperately to grab onto a pole,
trying not to cut off the circulation and/or oxygen
supply of the person next to you. The unwritten rule of
Egged Bus riding is to NEVER, NEVER hold onto only
one pole, if at all possible. This dangerous practice will
only result in your being flung across the bus, or wrapped
around your respective pole, usually endangering many
lives and overturning countless baby strollers! Therefore,
always try to hold onto tw o different bars, plant your
feet slightly apart, and bend alternate knees when turning
corners. (D on’t ask me how all those munchkins manage
to keep their balance while holding onto nothing but a
melting popsicle!)
Finally, only when you conquer gravity and manage
to stand upright for more than 2 seconds do you
approach your destination. Hurling yourself across the
bus (assuming by this tim e it isn’t too crowded), you
dive for the stop button, your only insurance that the
bus will actually stop where you want it to. (However, an
ample supply of “Regga, Nehag!” ’s is always good to
have in case of emergency!) After “dinging the ringer” and
squishing your felafel in the process, you position
yourself near the closest door and wait for the objects
outside to stop being blurry. As soon as the bus lurches
to a stop and the doors open, you hurl yourself onto the
street, taking care that the heavy glass doors don’t close
on your behind, or the sad remains of your felafel! As
you catch your breath and quiet your knocking knees,
the bus whizzes off in a cloud of exhaust, leaving you to
ponder how you ever got along without it!

Puppy Lo ve
We have a dog. Peter came home one day with her,
soaked with the new rain and small — so small — that she
fit right into the pocket of his red sweatshirt. She was
certainly not more than four weeks old. A sick, pathetic
looking thing more like a rat than a dog but we said what
the hell w e’ll raise her as our own. Each suddenly became
the venerated expert on puppy care and simultaneously
offered his opinion and within three hours of quite a
to-do, she was brushed, de-loused, shampooed, fed
(though not too much, who could eat with so much
excitem ent?), dropped (tw ice), cradled, pampered and
plopped right into a box (thank
G-d we save these things) full
of pink toilet paper for she
was to be called Pinky (after
Pink Floyd, of course). We
wanted to call her Floyd but
that woudn’t do, would it, not
with her being a girl and all
(we checked and after some
heated discussion decided that
the absence of those two little
things would be the deciding
factor). And so, there she was
and there we were, rather exhausted
but feeling quite selfsatisfied
that we saved this
poor wretched (and ugly let me tell you) creature from
certain death.
That was Thursday, and Thursdays are great but
somehow the weekend soon follow s (go figure) and with
it plans for evacuating Mt. Scopus with the exodus, this
particular weekend directly to Eilat (of course). But,
what to do with our newly-acquired responsibility? I’ll
take her, I volunteered, knowing that uncle-hood is so
much sweeter than parenthood because you can always
give the brat back when she gets to be too much. Besides,
Peter and Dean would have to cope with her for the rest
of the year (and will she grow!) so, I really didn’t mind
staying back for three days with the new baby. It wasn’t
too bad, really — not if you like the sound of screaming
and whining and yelping all through the night that makes
your heart bleed (it builds character, I dreamt my father
saying) in one of those rare moments when she decided
to shut up just before she let out a yelp, 467, 543, 942
which nearly sent me through the roof. But that’s O.K.
because classes hadn’t started (Baruch HaShem) and I was
doing a great mitzvah (wasn’t I?) by allowing this newly
arrived animal to fractionate my sleep cycle and nearly
send me over the edge. So, for three days I was up to
walk the dog ganz frie — wenn
Gott aleyn scholft noch, and
fell asleep mid-day only to
start the blase routine over
again. Pinky quenched all feelings
of homesickness however
as I was raised on three healthy
portions of guilt — daily.
But all that seems long ago
and Pinky finally has learned
to walk without looking like
she has a stick up her toches
(don’t laugh, it’s rude) and
other major accomplishments
like learning to “use the facilities”
(my mother’s phrase) outside
rather than on Peter’s (copied) Hebrew homework or
Dean’s (yes he’s the capitalist) accounting textbook. Or
the bed. Or floor. Or a thousand (who can count so
many?) other places. We watch her and feel the passing of
time and newly-acquired maturity (ours) and growth
(hers) and wonder what the hell we are going to do when
our madrich finds out that we have set up political
asylum for an otherwise-soon-to-perish Palestinian dog in
our dorm room.
Anyway, w e’re planning on Eilat again this weekend
and maybe Pinky will come along. I personally think
she’s too young for the excitement but a dog’s just got to
have fun, too. Besides, what else can we do? I’m afraid
we shelter her too much — who needs a maladjusted dog?

Summer Tiyulim
Over Ulpan there were many Tiyulim around the
country. From Masada to the Golan, the O.S.A. sponsored
Tiyulim to enlighten the OYPers on the subject of Israel.
Many memories were made through these trips that will
last a lifetim e. Who can forget the candlelit snakepath up
Masada or the sunrise we saw once on top. Our first visit
to Ein Gedi witnessed the charred remains of the fire that
destroyed the nature preserve, while our second visit
showed us how nature rejuvenates itself, as the flora and
fauna came to life once again. Climbing up Nahal Arugot
in the middle of the summer was an experience which
brought us the reality of dehydration. Yet we all survived
to enjoy the natural springs and go swimming. These were
all important Tiyulim which helped us learn about the
land of Israel.
In addition to these trips, the OSA sponsored an
“Israeli Society Seminar” . A large group of us went up to
Har Gilo field school, to hear various lectures on Israeli
Society. Som e were on the conflict between the secular
and the religious Jews, some were about the different
tunes of settlem ents in Israel, some were even about
different types of Israeli music. After a day and a half of
listening to lectures we got to spend Shabbat in different
settlem ents around Israel. On the West Bank Jewish
settlem ent of Tekoa, we heard views on why such
settlem ents should exist and remain there. In the
development town o f Yerucham we heard about the
plight of the Sephardic community that lives there. On
the Moshav Kfar Saba we were treated to the good life.
And on the religious Kibbutz we saw how the kibbutzniks
lived communally, in a religious atmosphere. All in all, we
learned a great deal about how different aspects o f Israeli
society live. We shared our knowledge with all the people
on the seminar and continued to talk about our
experiences afterwards. In retrospect it was a Tiyul that
was not to be missed.

CHUGIM
Chug Aliya
Chug Aliyah was made up o f a group of people whoj
had one thing in common. Everyone felt that sometime!
in their future they would be making Aliyah. We spent]
time getting to know one another and discussing the
difficulties encountered in adjusting to Israeli culture.
Our activities involved learning more about Israel and!
the meaning of Aliyah.
During first semester we spent a weekend on an army
base talking with Israeli soldiers about their lives. We also!
־Army met with an American oleh who was serving in the
and other American olim , to learn about what difficulties
they encountered.
Second semester we went away as a group, we
decided that we just wanted to spend tim e getting to
know each other better. This semester was devoted to the
how of Aliyah — the technicalities and bureaucracies that
one must deal with.
Chug Shilshul
R enee Ironi
Upon arriving in Israel we found many problems
adjusting to Israeli culture. One such problem occurs in
the intestines and during intense group discussion, we
decided to create a club. Hence, shilshul made its official
appearance at Hebrew U.
We had many group activities. For example, every
Wednesday we would tour Jerusalem falafel stands and at
each stop, one of the members would eat. At the end of
the tour we would all return to the Goldsmith bathrooms
and each one of us would rate his falafel restaurant
according to its “shilshul potential” (SP) and its “shilshul
results” (SR).
The year culminated in our famous event, the
“shilshul run-off” . After having rated the SP and SR of
each restaurant the one which ranked highest in both

Language
Exchange
This year the Histadrut HaStudentim started a
language exchange program. Students who wanted to
improve their Hebrew could be matched with an Israeli
who wanted to learn another language. It was also a good
way for foreigners to meet Israeli students.
I was paired with an Israeli named Ori who wanted
help with his English. Ori and I decided that we were
bored with classroom type language classes so we taught
each other the names of shapes, the articles in a
classroom and read newspapers. When I explained an
English word to Ori, I learned the Hebrew. It was fun,
interesting and I made a friend.

I couple of us did imagine it, and we eventually turned that
| dream into reality. We figured, what the heck, and started
I a Chug in order to m oon with some sense of organization
— some of us even went a little out of control and shaved
our heads in an effort to initiate the spectacular double
moon. “Moon over Israel” became our slogan and who
knows, maybe on the plane flight home, w e’ll be able to
accomplish that goal.

Thousands o f years ago, Hebrews had
wandered out of the desert and began
terrace farming in the location we today
call Sataf.
Over the past four years the JNF has
begun to re-establish sites such as Sataf.
With the help of students from the One
Year Program, this site has begun to grow
again. We rebuilt the terrace, cleared the
land and planted crops. We felt like
Chinese rice farmers in the process, with
the mud up to our ankles.
It felt good planting crops in the same
site that our ancestors founded and began
to farm thousands of years ago.
The Student Committee
As the year draws to its close w e’d like to remember a part of the OYP that some of you still don’t know
about. That’s right. Those people that were involved in your parties, volunteer committees, newspaper, baseball
games and all the other little tidbits often taken for granted. Need we say more? We are speaking of the infamous
student committee.
We had a lot of fun planning all those
events... too bad you couldn’t make it. And
how about that New Year’s Eve bash?
We’re still not sure whether the hangovers
were from the cheap alcohol, the “full
steak dinner” or the Lubavitcher band.
Truthfully, the parties were alot of fun...
whether we danced through the decades (in
a sweatbath), introduced the winter ulpan
to the summer ulpan (too bad everyone
was too cliquey to mingle), showed off our
talents in our togas (for those of us who
managed to keep them on) or whatever.
Partying will never be the same without our
fellow OYPers.

KA TAMON,
Our Adapted Community
I and many more students of the OYP volunteered in
Katamon, there were all sorts of things for us to do. To
teach English, to work with children or the elderly, to
work with physically disabled children, and we even had
the opportunity to get an adoptive family.
Every Sunday, nine hyperactive children waited for
Shuky and me to play with them and to love them. To
show them we cared... It was an experience hearing them
say “I’ll miss you ”, or “The best day of the week is on
Sunday”. We played all kinds of games, took them on
Tiyulim, but the most important thing was that they
99■
|g%vv
m
knew we loved them — this was what they really needed.
We also had the experience of being adopted by a
Katamon family. I became very close to my “mother”.
For a whole year, almost every week, I went to visit my
“fam ily”; I learned about the community and about
Israel in general through them. Every time I went there,
they fed me so much, and — lets not forget the doggy bag
for the bus ride...
My work in Katamon was an experience I’ll never
forget... I’ll miss going to the gonenim Maatnas (community
center) and talking to the guard, the secretaries, the
teachers, the director, Yosi and Ofira, and especially I’ll
miss Shuky and our nine children... I wish I could express
on a piece of paper what they all really meant to me, but
you had to have worked in Katamon in order to
understand my feelings.

* * *
On Wednesday evening, Nov. 27, Moshe Dann, “the
forem ost authority” on the Mormon question, spoke in
the Goldsmith building on the topic entitled “Mormons
on Mt. Scopus: Cause and E ffect.” Mr. Dann began by
stressing his lack o f animosity for the Mormons and their
presence in Israel but his deep concern for having an
active missionary group in Jerusalem. In his tw enty
minute address, he discussed the possible Mormon
disrespect for Jewish claims to Israel and to prove that
Mormons do, in fact, plan to missionize in Israel.So
what?
It seems that Mr. Dann failed even to attem pt to
prove that a missionary group in Jerusalem would, in
some way, be detrimental to the society — his “concern.”
It was interesting to becom e acquainted with some o f the
incriminating articles he had stacked in his folder beside
him. They proved nothing to me.
As fair as Mr. Dann’s allegation that the Mormons
maintain a pro-Arab position on Israel land rights, let’s
face it, much o f the world does not accept Jewish
legitimacy in Israel, and that has not previously prevented
groups fostering that mindset — including Arabs — from
establishing institutions in Israel. Therefore, that little
tid-bit does not appear to lend any credence i/O the
argument that a Mormon institution ought not to be
established here.
Then, concerning the question of whether or not the
Mormons intend to use a “visitors’ center” for missionary
purposes, Mr. Dann’s information proving that they do is
all dated to 1979, does say something to admit to
intentions of using the center as a base for missionary
activity, but that in itself does not prove the conclusion
that such an institution would be a menace to Israel.
Mr. Dann’s emphasis on proving the Mormon’s
missionary intentions does, however, imply to me that
the reason for the belief that the Mormons ought to halt
construction of their facility is tremendously based in
fear. Some people are afraid to have a missionary base in
Jerusalem and are willing to let that fear dictate how the
situation ought to be dealt with. Of course, there are
other proselytizing groups in Jerusalem, including the
ultra-orthodox Jewish groups, but that’s different — Jews
proselytizing Jews as opposed to Christians proselytizing
Jews. If Israel is to be called a democratic, egalitarian
state then that can not be true. Either all rights are
afforded to everyone, or they are not. There is no in
between. And if the choice is not for equality under the
law, then soon, we slip further and further towards
facism.
Response:
Dear James,
I read your tidbit on Mormons in Party Line. It
proved nothing to me. Israel is not, does n o t claim to be,
and m ust never be a democratic, egalitarian state. Israel is!
a Jewish state — first, forem ost and by design. For this it j
was created, for this it must strive, and for this it is
unique. We do not aspire to be loved by all men. We do
not wish to be equal. We are special, chosen, annointed. j
We are not like everybody else. We dare not become. May!
Heaven have mercy on us. We are a people with a mission.
We are not afraid o f the Mormons. We have a religious!
and moral obligation to protect Jewish children — mainly j
American students like yourself — who, while open to
every cult, ideology, fad, religion, know nothing about!
being Jewish. They Eire at hom e in the National library,]
but can not find their way in a siddur. They know]
everything about the Chinese, but do not know the]
names of their prophets. It is you who ought perhaps to]
fear the Mormons. It is you who are the most vulnerable.
It is you the Mormon is trying to bring into his fold. It is I
for you James we are fighting.
For the Jewish people, each soul is considered a
whole world. The loss of one Jewish soul is considered as !
if we have lost an entire universe. That is how important j
each Jewish person is to us. There is no price high enough
for us to pay to ensure the preservation o f Jewish life — a
single Jewish life — towards that goal.
The Jewish people do not proselytize. It is against the
fundamentals o f the Jewish Law. On the contrary. When
a Jewish person confronts a person who wishes to convert
to Judaism, it is his obligation to disuade the non-Jew
from taking on the yolk of Judaism. If a young man
wants to convert for the sake o f marrying a Jewish girl,
he is forbidden by Jewish law from so doing. Therefore I
find your crude reference to ultra-orthodox Jewish
groups most disturbing. To bring a Jewish child who has
been deprived of his heritage by ‘enlightened, western,
egalitarians’, closer to understanding his roots is not
proselytizing him. It is enriching him. It is giving him his
heritance. To baptise him in the Jordan River is to rob
him of both this world and the next.
The Jewish People in their homeland have every legal,
moral, religious, national right and OBLIGATION — to
protect and cherish what is theirs, the world will have to
come to terms with that. So James, will you.

Missioning
Whether Judaism is a religion, culture or both, it is
difficult to deny the beautiful intimacies, the warm
feelings, the long and difficult history and the sense of
unity that the traditions of Judaism inherently contain.
Many of the OYPers come from secular backgrounds and
will inevitably come into contact with Baalei T ’shuva
(masters of repentance) who wish to show or “force”
upon the student what they believe Judaism really means.
The intention of this article is to forwarn the student of
the troubles he/she may encounter, in order for the
student not to become disillusioned but to obtain the
maximum amount of benefit from this once in a lifetime
experience.
Shabbat dinners are a wonderful way to ask questions
and learn about the traditional way of life that your great
grandparents, if not grandparents probably
lived. Usually the family is very pleasant,
but once in a while they turn out to be
arrogant, dogmatic and rude; do not be
turned off by this experience, simply try
again! Most likely the student will eventually
be approached and asked to attend a class
at a Yeshiva. One can benefit tremendously
from this experience if a solitary thought is
constantly kept in mind; the eventual goal
of these Yeshivas, however subtly employed,
is to change the student into a traditional
Jew who whole-heartedly believes in the
divinity of the Torah. While studying at the
Yeshiva, also examine the people and their
environment: their habits, their dress, their
beliefs. With this attitude, a student is able to gain a
wealth of knowledge which is nearly unattainable outside
of Israel.
Lastly, another way to “experience” Judaism, is to
attend 3-day seminars set up by a Yeshiva. These
programs are the closest thing to missionizing one will
encounter by these “Masters of repentance”. They take
advantage of a group experience, one’s emotion and one’s
lack of knowledge in Jewish rituals, history and beliefs.
These seminars will attempt to appeal to your rational
intellect using statistics, probabilities and even a computer;
all with the intention of proving that the Torah is divine
and hence one must follow all of its laws. One warning —
do not go alone! Taking the class with a few friends will
greatly reduce your vulnerability.
These programs have many aspects.
They bring to light many important problems
with the secular world’s basic beliefs,
and shed new insight into many concepts
not previously considered. Yet what is
inevitably neglected, is that religion and
God are a matter of belief, a personal
choice not able to be proven logically or
rationally. Eventually, one must take that
leap beyond the known, a leap called faith.
Therefore, with the above warnings
stated, it would be a shame for the student
on the OYP not to take advantage of these
unique experiences, perhaps to learn, perhaps
to change, but inevitably to grow.
Paul (I love your head) Spiegel
A WARNING
All OYP students are, at one tim e or
another, approached by Jewish “missionaries”.
These “missionaries” seem quite
harmless, and according to most people;
“all they want to do is invite you to
Shabbos dinner.” Often the dinner will be
so lovely that you will want to go back.
However, before becoming enmeshed in the
seemingly innocent world of Jerusalem’s Orthodox community,
one must understand the motivating forces
behind your hosts’ generosity. Only by approaching these
religious groups in an intelligent and well-informed
manner, can the OYP student fully benefit from this
unique opportunity.
Students are approached everywhere — in bus stations, at
the Wall, in restaurants and, although they have been
repeatedly asked to stay away, on campuses as well.
These missionaries have various approaches to attract
students — a baby carriage which can’t be left alone, an
old man who needs help up the steps — are encounters
which will likely lead to a Shabbos dinner.
One must realize though, that everyone
involved has an ulterior motive. Each of
them wants you — a smart, inquisitive,
probing person — to become part of the
fold: an observant Jew dedicated to a life
outlined by the Torah. In attempting to
show secular Jews the light, these “missionaries”
believe they are doing something good for you, for
them, and for the Jewish people.
There are cases where students are drawn into the world
of the Yeshiva, completely forsaking their past life.
Clearly, the religious network is sophisticated enough to
“brainwash” certain students. These students, it seems,
had been completely unprepared for the barrage of
“propaganda” which confronted them. Jewish education
should never be limited; however, it must be approached
in your own terms.

A Perspective on Terrorism
In some way, either directly or indirectly, all people
living in Israel for any extended period o f tim e have to
come to terms with terrorism. Unfortunately OYPers are
no exception to the rule. v,.
I remember the beginning of the year one friend of
mine told me that every tim e she got on a bus she used to
imagine in very real terms that this bus ride was her last.
The last stop would be a fiery explosion in downtown
Jerusalem. She says now, “Of course I don’t even think
about the possibility except when I listen to the news and
som eone has been killed.”
Familiarity seemed to make the problem less traumatic,
for some even non-existent. But this calm is disrupted
when the “boom ” you hear is not another of the
frequent sonic boom s, but rather the bus stop across
from Goldsmith blowing up. Although statistically the
chances o f a Jew being harmed by violence in New York
are greater than in Israel due to terrorist actions, most
students, even after adjusting to the real situation felt a ,
greater fear of a PLO bomb in Mahane Yehuda than they 1
felt from a mugger in Brooklyn.
Whether people deal with terrorism through fantasy :
denial or belittlement, it influences our view regarding !
the issues that face Israel today. Therein lies the great j
tragedy and special evil of terrorism. It is not the deaths
that make terror special in its insidiousness, for death, as «
war, is an epidemic in this region. It is the deep soul !
rendering hatred which terror causes that stains it with a j
vileness far darker than war. Most Israelis as well as |
Israel’s supporters never ruled out negotiation with Egypt
even when engaged in war. But how many would agree to !
talk to the PLO today? The terrorists are reaping what {
they sow, and what they are planting is a hatred which
will grow in the hearts of all but the most resolute and
wary.

Fighters —Gadna
On Sunday, February 2, 1986, 25 misfits
boarded a mini-bus. Destination: Tsalmon’s Base
in the lower Galilee.
For the next tw o weeks our every second was
filled. Those of us who planned to get in some
letter-writing, reading or knitting soon realized
this was the Army. With those few precious
spare moments we could grab, sleep took
priority. Our days were filled with running,
obstacle courses, running, hiking, running,
weaponry lessons, running, topography classes...
(get the picture?) And I guess you want to know
about the food. Maybe some things are better
left unsaid. But since we know you’re all dying
to know: picture all the stale bread, eggs,
oranges and over-sweetened tea you can eat and
drink for every meal for 2 weeks. But however
bad the food was you could guarantee that when
the signal (B’tai Avon) was heard, the ravenous
animals attacked.
We have to mention ‘misdar’. This is a dirty
word. It not only means inspection but also
means clean your room, wash the floor, dry the
floor, shake out your blankets, dust the
furniture (i.e. the door and windows), scrub the
toilets, hide all your personal possessions from
view and make sure your canteens are bone-dry.
I don’t even think Buckingham Palace has this
done three times daily.
The obstacle course record goes to Mandy
who managed to run a three-minute course in
eight minutes without actually getting over any
of the obstacles. Kol Hakavod. But seriously
now, Gadna was one of the best things we did
this year. After all, we did get uniforms.

STUDY TOURS
When we first signed up for a study tour — we were sort of
hesitant, I mean we’re here for fun , who wants to study!? Well, we
took the plunge and boy was it worth it! While learning about
Israel we had the opportunity to meet lots of other fellow OYP,ers
and share many memorable experiences with one another.
Our first study tour took us South through the Negev covering
many of the battle sites o f the 1948 War of Independence. The
second night o f Chanukah was spent out in an army base. After
candlelighting, the IDF kindly provided us with donuts and a disco.
As the night came to an end we prepared ourselves for our unusual
sleeping arrangements. All of us slept in one room (too bad about
the boy-girl ratio, ladies). The one unfortunate incident of the trip
was that we found out, spiderman cannot be brought to life,
especially at King Solomon,s Pillars.
We made our way to Eilat where we spent the afternoon at the
beach and the evening at a special student wide Chanukah
celebration. For those of us who found it a bit dull, the “friendly”
bus drivers were ready and willing to take us to the tourist center
for pizza and beer.
The trip ended by the Dead Sea where we had a touching
candlelighting ceremony. Unfortunately, the excitement did not
end, as Bus No. 1 got stuck in the mud. Bus No. 2 left for
Jerusalem, throwing out pieces of clothing to us, who felt like,
stranded refugees. It was a nerve wracking experience especially
since many of us left behind our holocaust notes on the bus and
our exam was the next day. Well, the bus finally came and the cold)
bunch made it back to Jerusalem safe and sound.
Our next adventure was the Galilee study tour. The trip took I
us to a variety o f settlements. Shabbat was spent in the 1
development town of Kiryat Shemona. Each OYP’er was set up
with a student from their youth group. The night was spent
regressing to our childhood — playing games which included a !
viscious version o f kissing rugby. The next day was spent hiking
through the beautiful hills of the Galilee where we kept expecting
Julie Andrews to appear and sing “the hills are יי.‏alive We ate lunch
at a vegetarian kibbutz. For those of us who are plain old meat and
potatoes people, it just didn^ cut it. All of us found it interesting
when Louise found her twin look alike (although she was five years;
old).
Our Shabbat at Kiryat Shemona was a touching and satisfying )
experience. We spent an interesting evening playing getting to
know you games, discoing and watching our favorite movie and
yours, “Endless love”, which thankfully broke down in the middle.
The hospitality that we received was overwhelming and our
new-found families treated us as if we were their own. We left fori
Jerusalem trading addresses and phone numbers with our new
friends, knowing we would have many fond memories to look back■
on.

SINAI
As this year’s end is coming near,
It’s time to remember the past so dear.
First we will remember the semester break,
And the Sinai trip some of us did take.
Complete with camels and bedouins too,
Some homemade pita and some weed for a few!!!
Through the Sinai we marched, all in a long line,
Occasionally stopping for the people behind.
We all will remember our first frozen night,
Tossing and turning until it was light.
But then we grew smart and paired up in twos,
With double the warmth, we all got to snooze.
No one will forget to stand on a slant,
Or to their dismay they will have a wet pant!!
At night by the fire, oh the stories we told,
Some people quite shy, but others sooo... bold!!
The food we prepared was nothing too bad,
Except for the night when dogfood we had!
In the wadis we washed, with our friends helpful touch,
But the shaving of leap was a little bit much.
And our bedouin guide, who we all got to meet,
In his dress and his sandals, how’d he stay on his feet?
With the return to Jerusalem, all seemed in such order,
Until we realized what w e’d left at the border.
Of course there was Micha, the organized man,
If he couldn’t do it, then nobody can!
All in all we will say the six days were a blast,
A time to remember in the year that has past.

Israel's Answer
to "The Boss"
When one thinks of Israeli music, two classic songs
com e to mind: “Hallelujah” and “Yerushalaim shel
Zahav” . Nonetheless, curiosity led me to an Israeli
concert at Sultan’s Pool this past summer. All I had heard
about the singer was “Shalom Hanoch is a cross between
Phil Collins, Bruce Springsteen and Lionel R ichie.” The
concert turned out to be the highlight of my summer
adventures.

Two weeks ago Shalom Hanoch played at Binyanei
Ha’oom a. He played to a crowd of roughly 2000
energetic fans with a set lasting almost three hours.
Fortunately through word of mouth about Hanoch’s
music, OYP’ers were highly noticeable. There were about
30 of us who decided to take advantage of the
unoccupied upper left wing of the hall and dance to our
hearts desire. Looking around, I noticed the enthusiasm
in m y friends’ face; Shalom Hanoch had altered his
ideas o f Israeli music — no more accordians. We were
dancing to the sounds o f bass guitars! The ever-popular
song and the title of his new album “Mahchim Lemashe’ah,
Waiting for the Messiah,” was received well — so well in
fact that Hanoch played it twice! He received three
encores. A concert well done.

December 31st is a highlight on everybody’s calendar. Decernber
31st in Israel is just another day. For every small miracle that
Israel declares a holiday, closes the bank and stops the buses,
December 31st goes by unnoticed.
Luckily enough OYP’ers expectations on how to party hard on
the most favorite eve of the year were fulfilled by the OSA’s New
Year’s Eve Bash. Fifteen Shekels bought you a steak, free wine
and beer, and a band to dance to. The party was held at a 3 room
restaurant called Mei Naftoah located on the road to Tel Aviv.
Everyone had a great time despite the “airband”, the two inch
steak in a ten inch pita, and the bustling crowd waiting for a glass
of cheer. The party went on until 2 a.m. and OSA provided
bussing back to the Dorms. I know I had a terrific time... if I could
only remember the half of it!!

Reflections
As I recently marked an important date on my calendar, I
noted, with some surprise that it was already the middle
of January.
Half of my stay in Israel was coming to an abrupt
close.
Noting this, I began to ponder all my experiences of
the past six months. I reflected on the people that I met,
the many strong friendships formed, the experiences we
shared and the academic progress that I made at the
Hebrew University.
All of these thoughts evoked many memories, feelings,
and the realization of what I had actually learned about
this country — Israel.
When I stepped down on Israeli soil last July, (not for
the first time) I was, as all of us are when we reach Israel,
filled with a deep sense of pride and overwhelming
exultation at being back in the Jewish homeland.
At almost the same time, however, trepidation hit at
the fear and excitement of what this year was going to
bring.
I learned shortly thereafter, all of the 70 students
arriving from Canada with me, were asking themselves the
same questions.
As I look back on that now (and laugh), I realize that
all my worrying was for naught. I am most definitely
happy, have wonderful friends and this year at the

On First Semester
Hebrew University has surpassed even my most deeprooted
expectations.
What I most importantly realized however, is all that
I have learned about Israel and where I, as a young Jew
fit in — and this is what I would like to share with you.
Israel, as we are all aware, is a very small piece of
land, 70 miles wide, situated in the most Arab part of the
world. Her history has been short but nonetheless filled
with trauma and despair, victory and pride.
Israel is beautiful in appearance: from the sea of
Galilee flowing in the north; from the port city of Haifa
to the always exciting Tel Aviv, to the incomprehensible
beauty of Jerusalem, the Judean Desert, the Dead Sea
and the relaxing resort of Eilat — Israel has it all.
Israel’s landscape has often been called a ‘geographic
miracle’ because of its great diversity from North to
South — and even this term falls short of descriptive
accuracy.
However, as we would seldom like to believe, Israel is
not perfect. It is, in fact, a very small country surrounded
by enemies whose presence cause never ceasing external
problems.
Israel is 38 years old — younger I dare say, than most
of the parents of the kids on the one year program — and
because of this the country faces severe internal problems
— social, economic and political.
The citizens are preoccupied in the intensity of day
to day life here - it is not easy to live in Israel. They do
not have the time nor pretend to have the time for the
pleasantries that we Westerners so often take for granted.
When we come to our beloved homeland, we become
angry — angry that Israelis do not behave or act as we
would like them to or angry that much here is lacking in
classic western efficiency.
No, it doesn’t happen “at home.” Maybe, this is
because “home” is 118 years old, not 38.
Maybe it is because we as Westerners, come here with
our biases that Israel ought to be “like home” when, in
fact, we ought not to impose our western values and
expectations on a country that is predominantly of a
Middle Eastern mentality.
Maybe it is because Canada isn’t Israel. Israel is
unique.
The Magic comes from the fact that in Israel every
Jew on this earth can come and feel at home. It is a place
which encompasses all that is Judaism.
If the realization of this simple fact can truly be
internalized we can continue to love Israel for Israel.
Within this concept is the very uniqueness of which I am
speaking — the specialness that the country offers Jews
everywhere — the collective bond that we all share with
it.
Israel is lighting its way to adulthood, one might say
and as all parents do with their adolescent children, we
must have patience.
Israel, despite its faults, is where I plan to make my
home and lead my life.
I realize that Israel is not as I would like to believe,
the land of milk and honey; Israel is not the ‘Garden of

The Jewish Question
T ׳ D.
H e used to say: I f I am n o t fo r m yself,
w ho will be fo r me? A n d i f I am only fo r
m yself, w hat am I? A n d i f n o t now
when?
H illel
M oscow refusenik, Viktor Fulmakht, an eye witness,
reports the false change in Soviet policy towards Soviet
Jewry by stating “The Soviets are in the stages of
resolving our problem, our fate. We feel that our situation
will not remain as it has been up until now. The situation
today is such that we can not wait until tomorrow to
act.”
The Soviet Union continues to crush its population of
2.5 million Jews out of existence. They are attempting to
scatter the people, destroy their culture and then trample
the life from them. The Soviet Jewry authorities attack
Jews on two fronts, emigration and culture. This dual
assault does not lessen the virulence of the policy, indeed
each area of persecution feeds off the other.
In 1985 less than 1,000 Jews were allowed to leave.
This is the lowest number since mass Jewish emigration
began in 1971. As well as a plain denial of human rights,
the refusal to allow emigration contradicts international
agreements to which the Soviet Union is a party. The
gates o f the U.S.S.R. are virtually closed, interring Jews
in a prison where they are subject to vicious and
menacing official anti-semitic propaganda and their whole
Jewish existence is threatened.
The Soviet Union has clamped down on all aspects of
Jewish life. It is more severe today than it has been for
many years. Since 1981 Jewish religious, cultural and
scientific seminars have been systematically broken up.
Hebrew classes have been banned and the teachers
warned to stop teaching. These meetings are legal as part
of the cultural rights granted to minorities under the
Soviet constitution and international convention.
In short, Jews in the Soviet Union, particularly Jewish
students, are being crushed by the full force of the Soviet
authorities. Emigration is a trickle. Formal education is
restricted. Leaders are arrested. Jewish culture and
religious life is being stamped out. Vicious methods and
weapons are used against them. These brave and strong
people are not dissidents, they are not a movement out to
change a system. They are simply a people aware of their
roots who wish to be free to live as Jews.
The Soviet Union must observe its own constitution
and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the
Helsinki Agreement of which it is a signatory. The Jews
of the U.S.S.R. must be free to live according to their
religion, culture and traditions. Theirs is a struggle for the
survival of a people.

THE WORLD UNION OF JEWISH STUDENTS
presents
an evening with
ANATOLY
שצירנסקי
in his first public discussion since his release
Binyanei Hauma, Jerusalem Students: •5 NIS
Saturday evening,
Non-Students: 10 NIS
5 April 1986
8:30 P.M.
Dear Diary,
Wow! It’s one thing to have Anatoly Shcharansky in
the country — but it’s another to actually see him in
person. Tonight I heard him speak at Binyanei Haumah.
And boy did he have the audience eating out of his hand!
The evening was set up as a question-answer session. I
sat right near the microphone, coaching people to ask
their questions in a straightforward manner. But did they
listen? No! Everyone tired to sound like a Harvard
graduate. People asked about Soviet Jewry activism,
religion, and Israeli politics! Shcharansky gave great
encouragement to activists like WUJS. He spoke of his
beloved book of Psalms to the dati. But about politics —
even when he finally understood the question he had to
dodge it with a joke! He’s only been in Israel two
months, what does he know about the politics!
April 5, 1985
I guess my favorite part was when Shcharansky said
how difficult it is to be so loved by everyone! He pleaded
in his wity and charming manner to be forgotten. His
cause must be remembered. But the emphasis, he
explained, should no longer be on him, rather on those
still imprisoned in the Soviet Union. Shcharansky made it
clear that he would only be in the public’s eye for the
sake of freeing his peers in the Russian jails. He summed
up by saying that he didn’t want to go to the United
States to campaign for Soviet Jewry. He would rather
spend time with Avital, catching up on the last ten years.
But he chose to increase his public image to help his
people!
Need I say he won my heart! What a cute, inconspicuous
looking, great man! What a symbol! I’m just
thankful that I was able to go tonight to hear him speak!
Tomorrow more exciting Israeli experiences,

A Question of Democracy
Pamphlets appear in JA offices professing Israel to be among
the foremost protectors of democracy in the world, while Arab
newspapers in Jerusalem compare the Israeli government to a
facist, totalitarian, Nazi regime or a South-African institution of
apartheid. After having spent the past year living in Jerusalem, it
has become quite apparent to me that the reality lies somewhere in
between. The questions which consequently surfaced in my mind,
then, were:*4s partial democracy democracy at all? Is the Jewish
character o f Israel reconcilable with a democratic one? And if so,
how can a truer democracy in Israel be realized? These questions
have loomed over Israel since its birth in 1948 and are among the
most devicive questions facing Israel today.
At the birth of Israel, the only consensus among the Jewish
people was that the new state must have a Jewish character, first
and foremost. Emerging from an era where the sheer vulnerability
of the Jews was exploited by the world at large, the Jews felt the
urgent need of a homeland as a protector of their life and liberty.
This realization predicated Israel’s Jewish character as the only
means to perpetuate the state’s initial purpose.
Along with this Jewish identity, however, the founders o f the
state saw the need for splicing democratic values and liberties into
the character of the state as well. But due to a lack of consensus
among the people and founders of the country on what role this
democratic character ought to play in a Jewish state, no
constitution was drafted, no Bill of Rights was assembled and,
consequently, no structural basis for the promulgation of democracy
within the society was provided.
The lack of an affirmed democratic foundation creates
problems not only in the resulting shift in democratic character
from one government to another but also in its inability to provide
the general public with an explicit understanding of what true
democracy really means. The majority of Israel’s population did
not come from established democracies and so lack an intrinsic
understanding of what democracy is.
It soon became apparent to many of these people that
democracy equals the vote, the vote being the only structural
democratic feature evident in Israel’s political system. In fact, the
vote is only a part of what democracy means, for the greater part
of democracy is the ‘check’ on the majority rule. This check is the
protection that in a democratic system, basic rights of every
participant in the system, including dissidents, will be upheld in
spite of the majority.
This is not to say that Israel does not, in fact, uphold the
rights of all its citizens but only to point out that such protection
while existing today to any extent is not assured a place in the
future of Israel due precisely to the lack of an explicit democratic
framework for the country.
Today, Israel is officially at war with over a dozen countries
and only one of its contiguous neighbors even recognizes that the
country exists. Military antagonism to the sovereignty and security
of the state due to external and internal sources, is a real and
continuous concern, yet, in spite o f this, Israel does maintain the
right to assemble and the right of free press at a level comparable
with that in the United States. Of course, if all rights in Israel were
as easily afforded as these, there would be nothing to discuss here.
But as I see Israel, there are two topics which warrant attention:
army service and restriction orders.
Very good arguments can be made for why Palestinians in the
army would create for themselves a conflict of interests, and, in
fact, I never met a Palestinian who protested not being in the army.
However, the Palestinians do realize that completed military service
is a criterion for financial assistance towards higher education. And
their lack of service in the army whether because they don’t want to
serve or because the government doesn’t want them to serve, is
understood by all as a way to distribute such funds while
simultaneously overstepping the Palestinians. This point is a valid
one, and there seems to be no reason for a lack of some sort of
mandatory Palestinian community service, which would bring with
it the sought financial assistance for education, except for a lack of
initiative on the parts o f both the government and the Palestinians.
Presumably, it would be the government’s responsibility to initiate
such a program. It seems that the apparent apathy in the
government over this situation stems from an aversion to gathering
the necessary funds together at a time when everyone in Israeli
bureaucracy is tightening his purse strings. If the problem were
important enough to the government, however, the funds would be
assembled to introduce such a program and alleviate at least one of
Israel’s nagging problems, while creating that much more institutionalized
equality in the system.
Restriction orders are the hardest blow to civil liberties in
Israel today and must be dealt with. This control is a watered down
remnant of administrative detentions which were discarded in 1980
due to mounting internal and world pressure. It puts severe
restrictions on the movements of suspected insurgents without
actually imprisoning them. The justification for such orders is that
in times of public emergency every country founded in liberty
enacts such as suspension of rights for the sake of security. Israel,
then, under a constant cloud of threat to its security, follows suit.
Studies have shown that such orders in Israel are used sparingly and
discriminately, being invoked usually on select individuals who
seem to be tightly woven into the planning of foiled schemes
against the State of Israel, indicating their danger to public safety,
but against whom insufficient evidence exists for their prosecution
according to conventional criminal law. The fact remains, however,
that the existence of such civilian control is a constant and
ominous menace to any state which values civil liberties.
Israel does, in fact, display many important elements of true
democracy, but any real democracy must always be striving
towards fairer dispensation of civil liberties. Partial democracy,
while democracy, is never enough, and it has yet to be seen if the
citizens of this young country will opt for movement in the
direction of truer democracy or will be satisfied with the stagnating
inertia o f the status quo which can only lead to the system’s
inevitable erosion.

Palestinian
M isrepresentation
When considering the desire of many Palestinians to
have a sovereign state it is necessary to separate the hopes
of a budding political entity from the political extortionists
of the PLO. The barbaric terrorist attacks perpetrated by
the PLO do not originate in the small Arab villages in
Israel; rather, they come from a mish-mash of political
confusion. I assert Habash, Abbu Abas, Abu Nidal,
Ahmed Jabril, and Yasar Arafat all claim to champion the
Palestinian cause, yet they have hurt and not helped the
Palestinian effort.
To begin with, the PLO is splintered into almost
countless factions, thereby nullifying the effectiveness of
any one leader. In addition, their methods of terrorism
and anti-Israel rhetoric make their political stance weaker,
not stronger. These radical actions illustrate a haphazard
rather than cohesive organization.
The expulsion of the PLO entity from Jordan in 1970
is a glaring example of a split in Arab politics caused
by the PLO. In addition, terrorism coupled with the
rejection of Israel’s right to exist, vis-a-vis rejection of
U.N. Security Council Resolutions 292 and 338, make it
impossible to hold negotiations with the PLO.
To make matters more complicated, the Lebanon War
in 1982 produced documents that directly connected the
Soviet Union to the PLO. Diplomas for weapons,
documents for espionage, and terrorist training were
found, in addition to a transcript of a conversation
between Yasar Arafat and Foreign Minister Andre Gromyko
from a meeting in Moscow were found. The Soviets’
policy has been to support organizations that undermine
the stability of non-communist societies. Therefore, the
PLO-Soviet relationship makes the political disposition of
the PLO less likely for compromise if not totally opposed
to any solution of the Arab-Israeli conflict.
In addition to the Soviet involvement, terrorism has
evolved into a lucrative business proposition and has also
expanded to include western targets. These factors show
that the PLO isnot solely concerned with forming a
Palestinian homeland, rather, they are interested in
advancing their political influence and ensuring their
well-being.
It is clear that the political viability of the PLO is not
acceptable in the Arab-Israeli theater. The energy required
to form a Palestinian State, therefore, can not eminate
from the PLO. Rather, the formation o f a state will come
out of work from towns like Baqa, a small Arab village
outside of Hadera. These people have resolved to
modernize their town. In contrast to the popular image
of mud-brick houses and open sewars, Baq is a modem
town in anyone’s terms. There are many new homes and
most families have cars, in many cases more than one.
The people are proud of their advancement. Undoubtedly,
they have the resourcefulness to build and run a modern
community.
They also have a deep sense of political commitment.
They expressed a desire to have a nation side by side with
Israel. But, the power vested in the leadership must come
from the Palestinians, and not the Israeli. This would give
the leadership credibility in the eyes of the Palestinians.
The problem is that the PLO dominates Palestinian
leadership circles and prevents more moderate leaders
from rising. Several people told me they would fear for
their lives if they accepted positions of power from Israel.
What I learned is that the Palestinians do have solid,
reasonable leadership capabilities themselves. They do
not need the PLO, nor do they want to take responsibility
for the PLO’s terrorist actions. From our western
oriented perspective it is important to differentiate
between these two camps: the PLO and the Palestinian
cause. They are not the same. We need to see through the
slanted veil of western media and realize there is a people
that have legitimate leadership and a legitimate right to a
sovereign nation.

MEDIA ACTIVISM
shirt, hair neatly combed, looking every bit the Quintessential
Yuppie. This sharp contrast set the tone for
what would prove to be an exciting weekend.
The seminar delved into the problems created by the
media, both in terms of those it reaches and those who
shape the content of its communications. In particular, j
the lecturers (various media personalities from CNN,
Time Maganize, the NY Times, the Jerusalem Post, and
other sundry communication networks) concentrated on
the Media’s sensitive relationship with Israel. Suddenly,
“N ew s” was understood as propaganda, the word objectivity
began to lose its meaning, and our awareness of the
media’s power to mold public opinion steadily grew. The
weekend gave some OYPers the chance to proclaim time
and tim e again that a Holocaust was coming soon to the
U.S. Others got a kick out asking the same long-winded
meaningless question to every media personality. For me,
it was a chance to eat as much free food as I wanted. I
especially loved the glow-in-the-dark, chemical based,]
bright yellow pudding.
I wanted to write an article on the social life on
campus. They told me I wasn’t qualified. So I decided to
settle for a report on restaurants in Jerusalem. They told
me I have absolutely no taste for food. So what if I
thought McDonald’s was America’s greatest contribution
to international cuisine. Andrew, they said, why don’t
you write about the Media and Activism seminars. So
here I am. And by now you are probably turning the
page. Please don’t, my mother would be so disappointed
in me.
In late Dec., 40 of us headed to the Jerusalem Forest
Hotel for the express purpose of stealing some needed
tow els and toilet paper. We were greeted by the director
of the Seminar looking very much like Abu Nidal, all
equipped with knife, Uzzi, scruffy beard, kaffiah, and
chains. While we were baraged with opening speeches
which were making us regret our decision not to sleep-in
that Friday morning, our terrorist-esque leader crept off.
ו_‏ 1-
We even got a little creative. Dividing into four
groups, one representing the extreme left, one the
extreme right, one in the Middle of the road, luke warm,
half-full moderates, and the last being foreigners. Each
group produced a radio show, newspaper, and videoclip
reporting a various media event that had been staged that
weekend. We learned how boring, bland and blah it is to
be a moderate, and we learned how much fun it can be to
see yourself on T.V.
Are you readers out there still with me? You
wouldn’t want to upset my mom would you? As spring
arrived in Jerusalem, I began to hunger for a good meal.
When I saw the signs for the Media Seminar’s Follow up,
that old favorite Activism,.I packed my bags and waited
impatiently in front of Goldsmith for three days. This
time, we came fully equipped with football and bathing
trunks. Shoresh was our host, and its parking lot served as
an excellent football field for our many games (for those
Hebrew U. snobs among us, we beat the Tel Aviv U.
cf-.11 dents in football fi-O ! 1

I bet you can guess what the intention of this seminar
was — that’s right — to make us ACTIVE. If I heard one
more time that we were the future Jewish leaders of
America, or that we would have to be the core of campus
Jewish activists I would have tossed my cookies. Speaking
of cookies, no the food was not as good this time. They
had lured us with our stomaches and now they were only
I trying to feed our consciences. We slept in those ugly
I triangular buildings that look like houses built for those
people with absolutely no aesthetic taste. And much to
our liking, even though it was a balmy 60° F outside, we
had to contend with sub-freezing temperatures inside.
IF NOT NOW
By the end of the weekend though, we had all been
miraculously transformed into activists ready to go and
fight Arab propaganda wherever we could find it. We
were impatient to start our crusade. As we sat around on
the last day, we discussed how we could counter the
awful lie that there is terrorism in the Middle East.
“Gary Hart cancelled his trip to Israel” — Student A.
“Why not have a memorial ceremony for him, we
could all dress in black and carry candles down Ben
Yehuda. We could make our own Media Event” —
Student B.
“That’s the dummest thing I’ve ever heard. Why don’t
we just do the only thing we know how to do well — have
a party.” Student C
“Lets be really metaphorical and have a party at the
airport.” — Student D
So these students, A, B, C, and D, set out to organize
the event of the century. We shed our apathy, lost our
indifference, and returned to school with a purpose.
Everyone got keyed up to have a “Meet Gary Hart at the
airport party.” But you know how these things sometimes
go. Gary Hart had to go and ruin our wonderful idea. He
had never cancelled his trip after all — the party pooper
was actually coming to Israel.
Despite this disappointment, these seminars were two
of my most enjoyable weekends in Israel, (it must have
been a pretty exciting year) and more importantly they
raised the awareness of many OYP students who now
realize there is a lot to be done, and that we can do it.
However, these seminars derived their greatest meaning
from the fact that they gave me the opportunity to write
this article and make my mother proud. OK Mom?!

!Buddy Bubba, Had A Dream...
I “I t was an awesom e dream, R o n ,” he emphasized. “I
dream t about the ’8 5 /8 6 One Year Program. I recognized
all m y friends but everything else was com pletely
different.”
“Tell me about it, ” I encouraged him only half-heartedly,
having had weird dreams myself, not always with the aid
of hallucinogens.
“Well, to begin with, ” Bubba started, “the Ulpan teachers
were always reasonable; they didn ’t appear to be on
pow er trips. No one asked me why I was late if I came to
class at 10:30 a.m.; N o one asked me to turn in
hom ework assignments. B est o f all, a ten-bus fleet o f No.
28 alephs serviced the students at Shikunei H aelef each
morning. ”
“Say what, ” I interrupted excitedly.
“No, No, N o ...” Bubba corrected me. “Say You, Say
Me. ” We both chuckled at the joke.
“It gets b etter,” Bubba continued. “Givat Ram was a
virtual palace. The kitchens had functioning stoves and
unclogged sinks. The cats never leapt onto dinner tables
in search o f a meal, and the cockroaches slept in their
own beds. ”
“ You win the fiction category, Bubba. This is by far the
best ‘dream ’ I ’ve heard yet. ”
“N o !” he objected. “This is all true; there is more: Egged
Bus drivers respected drivers o f smaller vehicles, the
banks kept normal business hours and used Black market
exchange rates, the Israeli public never talked, sm oked
(or laughed) during movies, p h oto developers never
m utilated negatives, grocery clerks never deposited cigarette
butts in m y Humus, the cleaning women sang pieces
from Billboard’s Top No. 40 when they worked and
always left enough toilet paper in the bathrooms to last
from Friday to Sunday... ”
Once again I cut Bubba off in mid-sentence. “B y any
chance, did you also have imaginary friends when you
were young?”
“R o n ,” Bubba protested, “the whole dream was truly
mad. Listen to this: the Common M arket Members
actually displayed moral conviction and endorsed an
economic b o yco tt o f Libya. The Soviet Union announced
the Chernobyl accident to the world im m ediately following
their little mishap. The ultra-orthodox o f Mea
S h e’arim kept to themselves, never recruiting students for
the Yeshivot or burning down secular bus stops... ”
“Look, Bubba, ” I blurted out, “even if this dream were
accurate, no one who has ever lived in Israel for more
than tw o m onths would believe it. ”
“Perhaps y o u ’re right, R o n ,” Bubba sighed nostalgically.
“I suppose every fantasy has its FLIGHT back to
reality. ”

Experience Mahane Yehuda
Doing your weekly shopping at Supersol simply
cannot compare to the experience you get while
shopping at Machaneh Yehuda. This outdoor, Jewish
market at one end of Jaffa Rd. is filled with the most
interesting o f characters, and sells anything from tom atoes
and natural peanut butter to socks and wonder pots! The
best day to go, if you like action, is on a Friday morning.
Starting at 6:00 a.m., this little corner of the city is
swarming with people, frantically rushing to purchase all
their last-minute items for Shabbat.
Starting from Mt. Scopus, you must first wait 25
minutes for the No. 23 bus, which will take you directly
across from the market. Unlike the No. 9, when you
board this bus, you may notice that you are practically
the only one not wearing a Kaffiah! After 20 minutes of
silent riding, you reach your destination. Getting off the
bus and eyeing the crowds, you clutch your plastic
basket, steel yourself for the worst and plunge into the
fray. The first thing you notice are the colors. Fruits and
vegetables of every possible hue are on display, each
stand more beautiful than the next. Of course, it is hard
to fully appreciate this when you are too busy dodging
rotten fruit, dead chickens and speeding strollers!
The usual tactic is to go through once and price the
merchandise, then go back and fill up your basket with
the best bargains. However, it is a proven fact that no
matter how small your list is to begin with, you have, by
the end o f the hour, bought 15 kilos of produce that you
never intended on buying, none of which you will be able
to finish before it goes bad! You see, it is almost
impossible to purchase anything less than a kilo. Why the
vendors refuse to sell only tw o bananas is beyond me, but
I always feel the futility o f arguing with a man who is
really a Jewish mother at heart. “Here, have one more,
make it a kilo!” “D on’t touch!” “What’s da matta, you
don’t like? So don’t buy!”
As your basket nears its breaking point, so do your
nerves. Top hats and side curls rush by in a blurr of black,
pushing carts and strollers over anyone unlucky enough
to get in their way. Colored kerchiefs examine flopping
fish, and scream curses at the vendors in three different
languages. Shouts o f “Shekel v’chetsy — T oot!” mingle
with the smell of fish and fresh pita, and the mournful
chants o f the beggars outside. When your basket is
overflowing and you finally manage to escape into the
welcoming sunlight once again, you inevitably find that
you have just missed the No. 23 bus, and have to wait
another half hour before catching the next one. In your
hunger, you devour a w eek’s worth of pita that should’ve
lasted you a month! After 25 minutes o f waiting and
munching, you are so thirsty that you run to the nearest
stand to buy something to drink, consequently nearly
missing the second No. 23! Exhausted, you collapse on
the bus seat and hold on to your bulging basket for dear
life, as you endure the rollercoaster ride home.
Arriving at the dorms, the formidable task of
schlepping 15 kilos of food up inumerable flights o f stairs
seems mind-boggling, but you somehow manage to do it.
Reaching your door, you fumble for your key, and
realize that 1) your strawberries are on the very bottom
of your basket; 2) you seem to be missing your pita, and
a few bananas have been lost along the way, and 3) there
is no room in your refrigerator for even half of the food
you bought! To this, there is only one solution: have a
Shabbat dinner party! Unfortunately, after friends leave
and your kitchen returns to its normal, empty state, you
must once again return to the chaotic depths of that
infamous market at the end o f Jaffa — Machaneh
Yehuda!

Cow On The Roof
Want to lavish the girl o f your dreams with a really
expensive dinner?
Want to show your boyfriend just how much he means to
you?
Want to impress your friends and enemies alike?
DO YOU WANT TO SPEND 100 SHEQUELS AT ONE
MEAL?
The Plaza has the answer for you! Personally embossed
match books, a flower for your date and the most
expensive purchase in Israel on your daddy’s credit card:
COW ON THE ROOF.
So I’ve heard... COW ON THE ROOF is one of
Israel’s most costly restaurants, but this frazzles my
nerves. Whon I think of good restaurants I think of great
food, good service and ambience for the full effect — the
price? Well, that’s a personal matter. Yet Israel decides to
have Cow on the R oof in Jerusalem to satisfy the
insatiating appetites of those affluent Israelis.
Who are we kidding? NO ISRAELI EATS HERE!
They’re at home. They’re eating shnitzel. They’re eating
humous. Cow on the R oof is to make the American
visitor feel at home. But, how can you feel at home in an
Israeli restaurant when there is Israeli service, Israeli
napkins and Israeli sweetener?
And the name just stupefies me! First off, who has
ever seen a cow on the roof? Secondly, who wants to
name a restaurant this? The last cow I saw was the one on
the Gay Lea Butter commercial — and it wasn’t on a
roof!!

Anecdotes
— One of our friends got off the phone the other day and exclaimed — “Do
you want to hear some gossip? My annorexic friend got fat!”
— One bright OYPer exclaimed — “What do they call Spring Water in the
winter?”
— That very same person once queried — “D o you dehydrate from drinking
anything or just alcohol?”
— One lucky student was about to get intimate with a female friend. When
he asked if he should use a rubber she responded no, she has a diaphragm.
After climax, he turned to her and asked where the diaphragm was. “Oh,”
she responded casually, “it’s in my purse” .
— We know a OYPer who practices what is called preventive photography.
A ny sign or any animal must be photographed, so he often takes pictures
o f boring scenery just in case there was a sign or an animal hidden
somewhere. In looking over his pictures, we found one that was
com pletely meaningless. Upon closer examination however, a small jackel
appeared in one corner. Preventive photography was indeed a success.
— Speaking of photography, we were sitting around one day discussing how
much damage a terrorist grenade could do to a room. “Yeah,” one girl
exclaimed, “Just think what would happen to m y camera.”
— Speaking of pictures, upon watching the shining, during the most
disgusting scene in the movie when Jack Nicholson is fondling a rotting,
dead wom an, a sly OYPer exclaimed, “My God, what a bathroom.”
— During Sea to Sea an interesting quotation emerged during an ultimate
frisbee game. Exclaimed a female OYPer, “I used to play on an all guy
coed frisbee team .”
— During a chug on Arab-Israeli relations, an alert OYPer asked, “I didn’t
know there were Arabs in Israel.”
— Another bright OYPer asked one day with regard to a brewski “which half
ic Viicrcrpy• ” Another OYPer replied “the top half.”

And now the Sports
Rob: Shut up! Here it is...
... “Burma beat the Ivory Coast 3-2 in a double overtime

Adam: I hate this country! I love sports. How could any male

decisions to bring real sports here, he’s going to have a
country full of women. There’s plans to bring Bloomingdales
to Israel, what about the Sixers?
Rob: Aww Adam, where’s that Pioneering Ideology?
Adam: The only Pioneers I care about are Naismith and Doubleday.
I was in Haifa last weekend and saw the Sixers on Lebanese
T.V. Last Tuesday night at Givat Ram, I saw the NBA all-star
game.
Rob: Just relax. The Sixers played Thursday night, so it should be
in Saturday’s paper. We’ll buy a paper tomorrow.
Adam: Tomorrow’s Shabbos, Rob. Israel’s a religious state, the
country goes without news on Shabbos. Oh, no. The
withdrawals are coming on. I think I’ll go read those
two-week-late articles my Dad sent me. Actually, I can just
recite them by heart. “Last night at the Spectrum...”
Rob: Adam, how have you made it all year without American
sports?
Adam: Well to be honest Rob, when I came here this year I knew it
would be tough leaving all my family and friends, but when I
realized no sports I almost didn’t come. Thank God my Dad
calls every couple o f weeks with the updates or after every
big game so I don’t miss a minute of the action. And the
packages of articles give me plenty of reading to do.
Rob: See Adam, it’s not so bad, I got the Trib’ and the USA
Today. Tomorrow night Maccabi Tel Aviv is playing the
Russians in Basketball.
Adam: That’s not basketball, Rob. You know the Russians will
win. If they don’t they’re sent to Siberia without even a loaf
of bread.
Rob: Well, let’s stop this bitching.
Adam: Yeah, let’s go get Elf and Schwartzy and play wiffle ball.

Picture this: It was Monday night, and we, your
cultural attaches, were in Moadon 11 kicking back with a
few tall, frosty coffee mugs of Maccabee beer. We looked
at each other and realized that our normal, festive
atmosphere was lacking. BUT WHY?? All o f the sudden,
a vision appeared before our eyes (in that Holyland
spirit)... Momentarily, Walter Payton, Dan Marino, and
Tony Dorsett swept across what seemed to be a magical
green carpet, and were gone. With the anticipation
mounting, and excitem ent in the air, a familiar feeling ran
through our bodies — FOOTBALL!! We knew that
crowds were out there somewhere, cheering, but we
could not hear them. This unnatural void dictated to us
immediately what our moral obligation was to you,
members o f OYP and football fans everywhere. We could
not sit idly by and let the State of Israel pass up it’s
inalienable right to Monday Night Football, and all that it
stands for.
In these troubled tim es people need a release that
only professional American sports can provide the
opportunity to forget on e’s own insignificant troubles,
and escape into the pseudo-reality of that constant
variety of human drama wherein lies the thrill o f victory
and the agony of defeat. Think for a moment about the
deprived of) bring to Israei society. Recent psychological
research (by us) has shown that cultures containing
professional football are less prone to exhibit acts of
aggression on an intra-societal level. The reasons for this
are many, but it is not necessary to explore them at this
time. What is important though, is the release of built-up
anxieties, fears, and sexual inhibitions that plague all
people today. Let us stand together and demand what is
due to all. We must set our priorities. The time has come
to see football in Israel! If we can accomplish this one

U.S.'s National Sport
Who would have ever thought that at a very
I early hour, on a sunny Friday morning, when
| most OYPers are either on the beach or in
bed, that a successful international ball game
| would actually take place.
Surprisingly enough, on Friday April 11,
1986 at 9:30 a.m. the teams were out on the
soccer field at Givat Ram warming up for the
main event. All in all there were about 20
players and 10 fans.
It was United States vs. The World (which
consisted of m ostly Canadians, of course). We
noticed, however, that there was a little
problem. The U.S. (being the baseball fanatics
that they are) outnumbered The World with
their powerful players. Naturally they gave up
one or two men to even up the teams. This
minor sacrifice went unnoticed and the U.S.
boys that changed teams were considered
official players for The World (right, Michael
and Adam?!)
The game began with a blast for The World. They
scored five runs in the first inning. The fans (who were
m ostly for The World anyways) cheered them on wildly.
The game progressed through the morning with the scores
being fairly even. Then, at the end of 13 innings, after a
few laughs, broken nails, and little arguments about who
was pitching too slow or too fast, The World came in for
the kill. The game ended with a score of U.S. — 13, The
World - 1 8 . . .
Better luck next year U.S.!

From Sea to Sea
Did you ever wonder what the great OSA tiyulim
looked like in a different light — a darker light? How
about without any light at all? Before I can clarify the
dark side of things, let me briefly tell you about what
went on in light o f the sea-to-sea hike.
The feeling of satisfaction and accomplishment I felt
after hiking the virtual width o f Israel was incredible and
incomparable to that o f any other hike I’ve been on! This
hike really strikes the chord — that one can do anything
when he truly puts his mind to it.
Each day was long; all but the first day was filled
with about 20 km. of hiking. Our days included such
happenings as climbing the Montfort Crusader Castle,
eating in an avocado grove, walking in the banana fields,
past a herd o f cows and hiking in the rain.
The third day provided the lack o f light I mentioned
earlier. It came at a tim e when m y feet were becoming
to o familiar with the boulders of the wadi. It all began
when our trusty (?) tour guide (did you ever question
your Israeli tour guides sense of direction?) took a wrong
turn.
Today we were the last group, but we took comfort
in knowing that our motivating factor, the Kinneret,
would be revealed the next day. We ended our last
hafsaka, knowing that we had to race the sunset to make
it to our campsite on time.
Am otz, our tour guide, misled us unnecessarily into
the wadi while there was a distinct trail in the correct
direction. Our doubts that this may be the wrong path
were confirmed when we saw the third group high above
us on the trail. Hiking over the wadi’s boulders reminded
me of my Sinai ventures which I loved. However, these
boulders provided nothing but anxiety. These thoughts
materialized when our “tour guide” apologized and
requested flashlights (next time think twice when putting

ן־׳׳/‏
r־u1‎־
_ ru L־Lr־־ n־Lru1‎ n _ / 71 \
your flashlight in your overnight pack). There was a
definite sense of panic in the air, almost masked by the
group’s sudden sense of unity. Perhaps everyone’s songs
served as a sign that the previous group hadn’t turned off
the cliff.
Once on the trail (we climbed up the side of the
mountain), I became as calm as circumstances allowed.
Hiking at night, once the nerve war within me was
settled, was a great experience. We were very fortunate to
have bright moonlight and wonderful weather. Hearing
Micha’s “Yallah muchachas” at one kilometer from our
site was a very comforting sound.
After completing the hike, with a mixed feeling of
disbelief and laughter, we were welcomed by the rest of
the group. We all made Kiddush together and, thereafter
related our somewhat unusual experience. It was a
Shabbat experience I doubt I will ever experience again
and know I will never forget.

THE END

GREAT EXPECTATIONS
Beth: Shari, how could you leave me in Toronto all by
m yself next year? Who am I gonna complain to
about the overload of school-work?
Shari: Oh Beth, what are you talking about? I’m gonna
have a heavier workload — don’t forget I’ll have to
master a totally foreign language! I’ve heard that
ulpan is really intense, eh?
REALITY: BY JUNE U.S. “BILINGUAL” STUDENTS
STILL THOUGHT “REGAH” WAS THE NAME OF
THE BUS DRIVER. “I THOUGHT ‘CHIC CHAC’
WAS THE ISRAELI FORM OF CHICLETS”.
Beth: But think of how amazing your social life is gonna
be. Y ou’re going to meet a whole bunch o f Israelis,
Europeans, South Africans, South Americans. Who
knows, you may even becom e friends with some
Ethiopians.
Shari: Yeah, next year I’ll probably be able to visit
almost any country in the world and have a free
place to crash.
REALITY: “IF I SEE ONE MORE ARROGANT AMERI-
CAN I’M GOING TO PROJECT MY VOMIT IN
THAT DIRECTION.”
“WHO WOULD EVER WANT TO VISIT
GLOVERSVILLE?”
“I EXPECTED TO MEET PEOPLE FROM HAR-
VARD, YALE, PRINCETON, UNIVERSITY OF
TORONTO... YET ALL WE ENCOUNTER ARE
THESE HICKS FROM SOMEPLACE LIKE HAMIL-
TON COLLEGE. CAN YOU IMAGINE?”
Beth: And just think how great it’s going to be being
independent. It’ll be just like having your own
apartment. .
Shari: Yeah, partying all night long, doing my own
cooking, no responsibilities; what more could I ask
for?
REALITY: “UH-OH, I MADE ANOTHER ENEMY ON
THE FLOOR... BUT IF I LOWER THE MUSIC
ONE MORE DECIBEL THE 350 PEOPLE IN MY
ROOM WON’T BE ABLE TO HEAR IT.”
“BURNT THE SPAGHETTI... LOOKS LIKE WE’RE
DINING ON CHEESE TOAST AGAIN.”
“WHAT DO YOU MEAN WE ONLY HAVE TWO
WEEKS TO PUT TOGETHER A 100-PAGE
YEARBOOK?”
Beth: And just look at the pictures in the pamphlets of
the dorms, they look gorgeous.
Shari: And m y mother is always ranting and raving of the
fun she and her roommate used to have.
REALITY: “I FEEL AS THOUGH I’M LIVING IN A
SHOEBOX THAT LOOKS LIKE HELL TURNED
OVER AND SMELLS LIKE STALE SHILSHUL.”
Beth: Well, I guess this is goodbye. I’m really gonna miss
you but I know this will be an amazing experience
for you. Who knows? It may even be the best year
of your life.
REALITY: WITHOUT A DOUBT, IT WAS.
The year may not have lasted, but the memories always
will.
“Memories, pressed between the pages of my mind.”
We’ll miss you Hebrew U.
Linda and Melanie
Twilight Zone
We must be careful when we return
It will be easy to forget all that was learned
We may again get caught up in the materialistic scene
Where life is easy and the toilets are clean
But remember the times when you were using your mind
Confronted by issues and problems only Israel could find
It is a precious place, that fact cannot be denied
The land, the people, everything so diversified
Thus as we move, forward, attaining the goals towards
which we strive
Let us not forget the importance of this year’s affect on our
lives

Hey boy... wanna beer?
Stevie Wonder & Ray Charles
Where's the key?

TWO Into ONE
During one’s lifetim e, a person has several special
relationship (parents, boyfriend/girlfriend, and hairdresser)
but none quite compares to the unique bonds between
college roommates. Having always lived at hom e, I long
thought that rommates always had the same last name
and that sharing clothes meant wearing your older
brother’s hand-me-downs. At age 20, I finally decided
that the m oment had arrived for me to leave the security
of hom e and to submit m yself to absurdities of som eone
else’s idiosyncrasies. After the initial m onths on Mt.
Scopus, nothing seemed too unusual or too suspect. In
fact, after hearing numerous horror stories regarding the
incompatibility of other room ies, I considered m yself
quite fortunate. Afterall, “John” (names have been
changed to protect the identity of the guilty) did not eat
cornflakes with beer or clip his toenails on m y bed.
Slowly but surely, though, things began to grow somewhat
weird. At first I simply thought that our room was
shrinking until I noticed that “John’s” pile of dirty
clothes had expanded beyond his closet and had engulfed
half o f the floor. However, I didn’t complain; his pink
and yellow pastel boxers nicely contrasted the drab beige
walls of our room. And, one tim e, I was awakened from a
nap (and Lord knows, I rarely indulge in such luxuries) to
discover my roommate replaying the final game of the
1985 NBA Championship Series with his nerf basketball
and miniature hoop, by himself! N ot only was “John”
acting out the parts of players and officials, but he was
also doing the play-by-play and color commentary. My
G-d, it was only December; we still had six months to go!
As 1986 progressed, the bottom fell out. My monthly
study sessions were suddenly and successfully disrupted
by either water-pistol onslaughts or “John’s” version of
Dance Fever. On other occasions, I would return from
classes in the middle of the afternoon and discover the
door locked, my room key mysteriously unable to open
the door. By February, I had acquired a third roommate.
Fortunately, she never left her clothes strewn about the
room , she hung them neatly in m y closet.
Like m ost of you, though, my roommate’s proclivity1
for weirdness will never com pletely overshadow the truly
beautiful m om ents we shared: a reunion after a long
period of separation, a campfire on a secluded beach
under the stars, celebrating each other’s birthday, athletic
com petition, Thanksgiving dinner, visiting the Kotel, a
quiet Shabbat spent talking, etc. But most of all, I shall
never forget all the tim es “John” helped me during a
m oment of crisis or indecision. I shall never forget how
both of my roommates taught me to better understand
m yself, m y needs, my strengths, and m y weaknesses.
Because of my roommate, I shall return home a better
person than the individual who came to Israel ten and a
half m onths ago. I cannot promise that I shall not
someday forget some of the things we experienced
together, but, “John”, I shall never forget you.

The Battle Is On!
I was sitting reading the NY Times Sunday Magazine the other
day, getting a small dose of culture, when I came upon an article
that struck my fancy. It was written by a Canadian, author
Mordechai Richler. The article was entitled “A Lost Cause” , and in
its title Richler succintly summarizes the fate of Canada. “Canadians,”
according to Richler, “not only expect but welcome failure” . “If
there is such a thing as poetic justice,” he continued, “the Titanic
would have been a Canadian liner, and we would have built the
Hindenburg as well as the Maginot line. Canadians count on failure
and luxuriate in ridicule.” The words of Richler ring true; indeed,
Canada is a “ country” associated with mediocrity, a landmass hiding
a goalies mask on the face o f the American team. Richler’s article
brought to mind a conversation I overheard between two OYPers
earlier this year. It went something like this:
JOE — I met a cute Canadian girl today.
BRIAN — That’s a contradiction in terms. Canada is an ugly country
hiding behind a pretty face to the South.
JOE — Yeh. Where is Canada anyhow? Isn’t it between Switzerland
and Austria?
BRIAN — No imbecile, it’s on NY’s northern border. I drove up to
Canada once. As soon as I crossed the border all the water
froze, and everyone was skating around, playing hockey and
drinking beer. The only thing I saw there besides hockey rinks
were miles and miles of lumber.
JOE — Oh yeh, aren’t they famous for the Maple trees?
BRIAN The Jewish National Fund had a great time there (for you
stupid people they are the ones who plant trees).
JOE — Yeh, it must take a lot of lumber to make hockey sticks for
everyone in Canada.
BRIAN — Are you kidding? If you count five hockey sticks for
every Canadian, that makes only ten sticks needed. Then again
that’s not counting the Reindeer.
JOE — Did you include Bob and Doug Mackeazie?
BRIAN —No, they’re just a couple of Hozers who hang out at Pizza
Hut.
JOE — Wait Brian, here she comes. This is the cute Canadian.
MARGARET — Wanna-down־a-brew — Hey Joe eh, I just spoke to
my Mum, eh, and my mum eh, she read me the headlines eh.
The lead story today eh was eh that Gretzky got a Hatrick, eh.
JOE — Didn’t you hear about the bombing of Libya?
MARGARET — Eh? It didn’t eh make the front page eh. Did eh,
Gretzky eh do it? Listen Joe, I eh have to run.
JOE — Why? Where are you going?
MARGARET — I have to go to Plattsburg to buy some Jeans. Eh?
BRIAN — Wow — am I glad she’s gone. She had awful walrus breath.
JOE — Who is this Gretzky fellow anyway?
BRIAN — What are you, shtupid? Gretzky, why he’s the G־d of
Canada. When I was there I drove past a church and instead of
a cross they had a picture of Gretzky. Instead of the
sacraments they had hockey pucks. All the churches there face
the Forum in Montreal.
JOE — Where do they get all these hockey players from anyhow?
BRIAN — They have hockey stud farms. Pretty soon Gretzky is
coming out to pasture. His offspring should bring quite a lot
o f dollars.
JOE — You mean real dollars or that Monopoly money Canadians
use?
BRIAN — What’s it worth now anyhow? I heard it’s worth as much
as the Israeli shekel. My G-d what a joke. I wonder what it’s
like to live somewhere where they have no real money. It
probably costs them three Canadian $ to buy a Coke.
JOE — They don’t need real money. They can’t count anyhow.
Look how many grades they have before college.
BRIAN — It is a mixed up country. They can’t even decide whether
to speak French or English. And for two years they have to go
to some place called CJAP.
JOE — To see JAPs in the US all you have to do is go to Long
Island. Speaking of JAPs, at least in the States we don’t shop
in some place named after Alex Haley’s relatives (for you total
imbeciles, Roots).
BRIAN — Actually, Canada is just like an America that hasn’t
matured yet. Soon though, as soon as they gain their
independence from England, they will become the 51st state.
JOE — Wasn’t there already a move for annexation?
BRIAN — It didn’t come about because N.Y. had enough suberbs as
it was and he US smells bad enough already with New Jersey.
JOE — Oh my goodness, it’s 4 :2 5 .1 have to get to the sociology of
after math of issues in the history and politics of the Middle
East Foundations o f Jewish Law.
BRIAN — Yeh, I’m going have to sleep, have Hebrew.
So it went. An intellectual discussion o f Canadian culture. But
seriously I can’t help loving all you Canadians, just like a foster
parent loves his abandoned foster child. After all, if it wasn’t for
Canada, what would Canadians decorate all their luggage with?

Hozer Bound
N ־׳׳/‏
n־-‏ r
J-LTLn.
Lr
Hozer, according to Miriam Webster’s Collegiate
Dictionary, is one who is a native Canadian, Canadien, or
Canuck. However, it should be noted that this word is in
no way associated with “hose” or “hosiery” rather its
origins date way back to the tw entieth century.
There was a tim e when tw o cool Canadian dudes, Bob
and Doug Mackenzie (they are in no way related despite
the fact that they drink from the same beer bottle) got
together with an ingenious plan for Canada to annex the
United States and create an eleventh province. Eleven was
always their favorite number. Besides, they felt sorry for
all those underprivileged U.S. citizens who never encountered
the “Hozer Experience”. After many heated
debates and lengthy discussions, they concluded that the
term Canadian was not applicable to the new population
thus they agreed on “hozer”. (I think it was Doug’s idea.
It was the only word he could slur one night while he was
pissed drunk.) Obviously, Bob and Doug realized that
absorbing this backward civilization into the world of the
wonderful Klondike would be an extrem ely difficult task.
Therefore, being the understanding Canadian citizen that
I am, I have decided to publish the entry requirements to
Canada to help those poor Americans better integrate
into a society o f Molson Export and Labatt 50.
Actually, it ’s not that hard to becom e a hozer. I guess
the toughest part is the first stage, initiation. A recruit
must stand on his head, gargle with beer and sing the
Canadian national anthem (in French, of course). Once
passed, it’s easy street. However, when he fails even one
prerequisite it’s back to the beginning (most people don’t
mind though since it gives them a chance to practice this!
heavy duty beer drinking skills).
Potential hozers must also repeat the word “eh” after )
every sentence. This is an ESSENTIAL part o f hozerization j
and practically the only thing that distinguishes us from;
those (ugh!) Americans.
Hozer dress is quite simple. Main features are a ski hat
with the emblem o f your favorite hockey team, wom-in
steel toe construction boots, and, o f course, a beer in{
each hand (beers in back pockets are also permitted). All!
hozers must proudly proclaim their hozerhood to the rest I
o f the world and greet every foreigner hospitably with:
the traditional “hey man, ya wanna beer?” Lastly, all
hozers must avidly and openly support the election of i
Bob and Doug to the position of dual Prime Ministers. )
They promise to nationalize all breweries and make beer
the national food and drink. Also, the cost will be
subsidized at a very low cost so mothers can get thin kids
on the bottle at an early age.
Bob and Doug have had enormous success with their
brilliant plan. Americans, oops I mean hozers, are ecstatic
with their new identity. Commented one hozer after
finally passing initiation on his fifth try, “I feel like,
burp, a new man, eh”. Now that there’s been a steady
and successful influx of new hozers into Canada, these
people are determined to com plete the final stage of the
process: the art o f Belching.

cynics during the year. The realities of the peace process,
which we have seen with our own eyes or contemplated
in a textbook, may have dulled our “idealism.” D on’t
forget — the possibilities are endless. D on’t give up on
peace. D on’t turn away from possible futures, before
you’re certain you don’t have anything to learn from
them. Y ou’re always free to change your mind and
choose a different future, or a different past.
Richard Bach

Thinking about it later
You can’t help wondering why
It’s the things you didn’t do
That make you cry.
I decided long ago
Never to walk in anyone’s shadow
If I fail, if I succeed
At least I’ll live as I believe
No matter they think of me
They can’t take away my dignity.
George Benson
And the seasons they go round and round
And the painted ponies go up and down
We’re captive on a carousel of time
We can’t return we can only look behind from where we came
And go round and round and round in a circle game

L isten to this one,
D o y o u k n o w w h a t it means?
L isten, and I ’ll tell you.
On Y om Ha’Zikaron I talked to an Israeli friend, a
commander in the Israeli army now studying at the
University. He was listening to the songs on the radio.
He explained to m e the words o f the lilting Hebrew
m elody, o f a young wom an and a young man. They kept
m eeting by chance and fell madly in love. He went back
to war and was killed having forgotten to ask her name;
that was the sharpest mem ory for the woman he left.
Many potential years o f promise are lost in a second.
War scares on the radio illicited m y concern and m y
friend replied:
“Why do you worry? It’s I who will be on the front
line. I’ll be the one out there busting m y ass. It’s m y life
on the line.”
The war o f Lebanon left him a self declared old man
at twentjr^our years of age. He describes himself as a
special breed o f Israeli ^ p n e with sensitivity, yet Sabra,
unafraid to d־be4101‎ j n appropriate circumstance. As a
commander he leads his troops in battle:
“In Lebanon I asked m yself, what am I doing here?
For the first tim e I realized that I had to make it through
alive...”
The ambition which every eighteen year old North
American takes for granted was suppressed for his four
years o f service, A commander volunteers an extra year
of service. Why did he volunteer to be a commander?
came from a family which has always taught me to
A friend o f his suffered a trauma while in Lebanon.
As he was on patrol he spotted an armed man flee into a
house. He knocked on the door — N o answer. Entering
the house he saw a fat old woman seated in a rocking
chair.
“Where is he?”
She said she didn’t know. The open barrel of the gun
suddenly grasped his attention and he shot them both,
through the old woman and the man she was sitting on.
How many died because they thought? He didn’t think:
“Thank God for that”, said m y friend. He then went
on to describe a hike with heavy packs and equipment:
“And when you climbed one peak and looked with
exhaustion toward the next, you were told that it was
only the halfway mark upon which you looked.”
By the end people were carried on stretchers because
they could walk no farther. At times on training marches,
some soldiers would fail to switch directions with the
group when they fell asleep on the march. It was they
who lost weekend leave.
>“N obody but an Israeli can understand how an Israeli
thinks”.
He said that only now are the Europeans developing a
sense with recent terrorist incidents in Europe. “They are
going wild over there; you should see the security at their
airports.” For an Israeli, he says the toughness develops
out of necessity.

“Israel is unfortunately a shitty place to live. I would '
1 never leave though; it is m y hom e. It is unfortunate that
a so tough a place is m y hom e.”
a j
ף
In 1967, a six year old boy, he remembers walking
down the streets of downtown Jerusalem. Women and
old men, boys and girls, ran the country. Mobilized — all
the men aged eighteen to fifty. A t Ammunition Hill, the
stories of many young men:
Bright ones
Devoted
Average
r W f H j | Athletic
f Academic
Loved
Died...
shot in the head, wounded in the chest, died en route to
hospital or in the field. Age 18, 19, 21, 20, 20, 21, 19,
1 8 ,1 9 ...
Another friend of his says:
“For every soldier killed, at least 20,000 people know
him or have some sort of contact with him.”
“I try not to look at the pictures and the stories
there. I com e here as a tour guide too many times for
4 that”. ‘ ~
1 vgy
“The worst fear is knowing that your own son will
; also fight in a war.”
Again, another sad song on the radio. One man has a
show for this day during which he recites all the names of
his friends killed in Israel’s wars.
“Can you believe it? He has been talking like that for
over an hour already. Now you know why I hate this
day!”
He listens while declaring with defiance that he
usually doesn’t. Y et he w on’t turn off the radio while he
calls the somber songs “shit”. Does he want me to listen
so much?
“Yoni Ha’Zikaron and Yom Ha’Atzmaut should be
kept as they are, one after the other, so as not to forget
the price, ever...
One of his female friends tells that the worst part of
the war for a girlfriend is waiting without any news.
“You walk around like a Zom bie”. She went to the
hospital to see if her boyfriend ws among those wounded
or killed in his battle group. She saw the badly wounded
commander who said:
“It’s all right, he took over in m y place.”
Again, another somber Hebrew prayer on the radio.
׳
• He had another friend who went back to North America last June...
L isten to this one.
