Letters
From the Guild of Jewish Journalists Authors
and Writers
I should appreciate your reaction and advice on a
project now being considered by the Guild's National
Executive.
We wish to initiate, join or take part in, a campaign
to raise awareness of the position of Jews ejected
from Arab lands since 1948.
Many Guild members have professional experience and
skills in campaigning for Jewish causes. This Guild
project could, for example, benefit organisations,
which have already embarked on campaigns described
above, or are now contemplating doing so. Our participation
could be a step towards their pursuing claims for
compensation and reparation.
If you feel the project has merit, I look forward
to learning your reaction and, possibly to discussing
it with you in due course.
D L Yadin
Chairman

I think you are thirty years late. As far as the Jews
of Iraq are concerned, we are now working on reviving
Jewish life in that country, which will be good for
the whole region, including Israel
