Addressing the Women's Plea' for Soviet Jewry on Human Rights Day' last week, Warren Eisenberg, director of the International Council of B'nai B'rjth, said that in recent years Jews have been held hostage to productive relations between .the United States and. the Soviet. Union.. "When! theyshow signs pt progress, emigration flows; when'the relationship cools, emigration is dammed up," Eisenberg said. Noting that the emigration ■ of Jews from the USSR had virtually ceased, slowing from more.than50,00Oin 1979- to less than 10,000 for 19,1,' Eisenberg said as bad as this was, it was made worse by flagrant persecution and anti-Semitism in the^Soviet Union. , ■'''-' He pointed out that' although Soviet President Leonid Brezhnevs* took a stand against anti-Semitism' at the 26th Communist Party congress last February, "He cynically opposes the most basic Jewish right to be identified with a national homeland." Eisenberg added that of the 105 identifiable cul- • tural groups in the USSR, only Jews suffer cultural and" religious deprivation, a behavior he described as "unconscionable."

The draft resolution was a watered down version of .earlier drafts which suggested the imposition of sanctions against Israel" in the event of its non-compliance with the request tc^res- cind the annexation. The final version only- notes that the Security Council would meet "to consider" imposing necessary measures on' Israel. Meanwhile, the Syrians have extended their campaign against the Israeli ac- ptonly^by a^zable^w tion on the Golan Heights by -U^isbme'p*oiifical ~*"fntroBucing"-''draft"resolution ih the General Assembly which" is currently debating UNITED NATIONS (JTA)—Israel told the Security Council last week that Israel's decision to apply its laws to the Golan Heights - was needed "to regularize the situation" there in the face of Syrian, determination to perpetuate its no-peace policy with the. Jewish State. Yehuda Blum,' Israel's Ambassador to the, UN, speaking at the opening of the Security. Council meeting, which was called into urgent session by Syria, recalled' repeated Syrian declarations against peace with Israel.and the mounting military threat to Israel; by the Syrian controlv over Lebanon, Syria's tightened links with Lybia and ' its incitement' of the Druze population 00 i the " Golan Heights. ~"There is a limit to how long any country can live under such threats, particularly military threats back .ed up not - - - -" - - - ____,_..—v-WJ=-J" .

All daily,life on the Golan Heights, both of the Israeli resident, and the Druze inhabitants, is with Israel," Blum said. ,At the' conclusion of his speech Blum appealed to Syria "to start negotiations with us directly with a .view to achieving an agreed settlement on all outstanding issues between our two coun- ' tries, including the question of the 'international boundary.!!- ,. The Security Council voted later that afternoon on ,-a draft resolution calling on , Israel to"rescind jts annexation of the Golan Heights.' The resolution stated: "The Security , Council", having consideredthe letter of 14 December, 1981 from , the Permanent Representa- * tive of the Syrian.- Arab Republic, . ' , "Reaffirming";that the acquisition of territory by force is inadmissable, ■"'' "1) decides that the Israeli' , decision to impose its laws, jurisdiction and administra- -tion in the occupied Syrian Golan Heights is; null fand void; ' ., " '. .

August, 1949, continue to ap-- ply to the Syrian territory the Middle East issue. The Syrian draft demands that - Israel-rescind its decision, calls the Israeli action "null and void" and asks for . Security Council sanctions against Israel in case of noncompliance. Most of the nearly 14,000 members of the Golan Heights Druze community, who comprise two-thirds of the total-population of. the. region, began observing a three-day strike to protest the virtual annexation of the. Heights by the imposition of Israeli civil law there. While some 7,000 Jews living in 30 villages in the region continued-to express, their pleasure at the government move, the army was on a higher state of alert in what army sources de-. - scribed as "routine higher defense.precautions.". __ The. actual effect _of-the vnew Golan Heights law ,, means that the- previous military rule there has now . , been; replacedjiy ,the ciyjl^ law administered throug--* out the rest of Israel.
