Dim yb Lifting Hopes
'- Paris, (JTA)~The sweeping victory of the'Gaullist Presidentlal candidate Georges Pompidou has further diminished chances of an early lifting of1 the embargo on aircraft, mllitary equipment and spare parts imposed against. Israel by former P r e s i d e n t Charles de Gaulle, diplomatic observers said. Although M. Pompidou faces a run-off election with Acting President Alain Poher, political circles, give the latter small chance, of upsetting the Gaullist. - .
Situation of Iraqi Jem r Reported to Be %rave
M. Pompidou, a former Premier, is expected to continue Gen. de Gaulle's Mideast policies for the time being if he wins the presidencey. This would greatly dim Israel's prospects of receiving 50 Mirage V jet fighters, bought and paid for over a year ago, but still under embargo* in a French hanger. M. Pompidou has only coma out in favor of "Mideast peace" and has hinted that a general embargo on all arms to the area should be enacted. M. Poher, during the early part of his campaign, promised to "re-examine" the de Gaulle embargo which he called "unjust and unacceptable.",Circles friendly to Israel believed that a. Poher victory would at least lead to a reconsideration of the embargo and presage changes in France's openly proArab policies. Now, political circles say, the only chance of a Poher victory in the run-off elections two weeks hence is by. Communist Party s u p p o r t . However, a "price" would have to be paid for this and it is believed .that one concession M. Poher would have to make to the Communists would concern the Middle East on which the French Communist Party firmly backs the Moscow line.-•• : '

The Heart of the Matter By RABBI MYER S. KRIPKE Editor's note: A letter from Pastor Gene Hermeier which appeared in the May 8 edition of the Jewish Press resulted ina frank and heated exchange of correspondence between Pastor Hermeier of the Shepherd of the Valley Lutheran Church in Council Bluffs, and Rabbi Myer S. Kripke of Beth El Synagogue. Excerpts from these letters have also been printed. ' • —;—.-•- It is not the purpose of the Letter Column to serve as a debate medium for two individuals. There has been, however, wide community interest in the subject of Christian AntiSemitism discussed in these letters. . Excerpts from Rabbi Kripke's final letter to Pastor Hermeier follow. While this will conclude' the Jewish Press coverage of this scholarly discussion, I am grateful that Pastor Hermeier and RabbiKripke agreed to share their views with Jewish Press readers. Dear Pastor Herrne'er: —~~ ——At the beginning let me say that you misread me on a number of points. First there is nothing in my letter to suggest that our disagreement means we can't appreciate each other - or that disagreement and antiSemitism arc synonymous. Indeed, quite the contrary is trdB: I specifically assured you of my friendship "and accepted yours and your sincerity without reservation. If 1 thought you were an anti-Semite I •'. couldn't possibly afford to waste my time writing to you: I write only because I am sure you are not. < Second, you accuse me of not being able to accept you" with your faith as it is. Again, nothing in my letter suggests this. I did suggest, that Christians ought to repudiate the baleful ' tradition of anti-Semitism in the churches, a long and persistent and terrible tradition within Christianity. I do not think this is essential to your faith. indeed, I have a high regard tor Christianity and ask you not to change your beliefs but to teach others to live them . . . , It is hot I who a$k for a change of belief. On the contrary, is it not always and interminably . the Christian who tells the Jew that Judaism is incomplete and unfulfilled and that he must "come to Christ?" Isn't the ihoe quite on the .other foot? : Some Reactions You move from an apology for the nightmare of_Jewish history "In Christian lands," which I outlined briefly, to the astonishing, "I would only ask if all Jews always act in perfect love?" The answer is "no." Bnt there is nothing In Jewlib life to match the libraries of bate literature written by Christiana about Jews and Judaism. There Is nothing In Jewish history to match the restrictions upon Jews which came from Church bodies and church lead* "ers. There Is nothing in Jewish religious literature to match the • slanders of Judaism In Christian religious literature. Nor does history show anything to match the expulsions of Jews from Christian lands, the confiscation ^of property, and, finally, the periodic massacre of '. Jews by Christians In religious zeal. . Further, you ask why it must follow "that if Christ was opu, - posed 2000 years ago by the Jewish leaders of the time that '. this lead to anti-Semitism today" But this Is not a question • you should be asking! This is my question, and the^qucstlon •f Jews In every generation. •Let us for the moment' assume that Jewish leaders of the time opposed Jesus: What kind of morality seeks to'punish'alt the Jews of the time for their sin, and then all the Jews' of all the generations? Why have Christians invariably pointed to the events surrounding the death of Jesus as justification , for mistreatment of Jews, ranging from mere vilification and slander to expulsion and massacre, In all the generations since? You should turn , the question you so aptly raise to church history and church leaders. Moreover, it is not true that Jewish leaders and the Jewish , masses opposed Jesus in the sense you take it, even though gome Jews may have done the bidding of their Roman masters. You must grant me the right to read Christian Scriptures with my eye, as I grant you this right. You accept the Gospel accounts as literally
