...spies for Israel, but we did nothing, nothing . . . They are Nazis." The 2,500 Jews who remain in Iraq today live under a reign of terror. All must carry special identity cards; none are permitted to hold passports. Their phones have been confiscated, their mail opened, their businesses seized, bank accounts frozen.

In New York City, a high school chemistry teacher stepped into the hall to investigate a disturbance; three youths squirted lighter fluid on his clothing and set him aflame. In San Francisco, helmeted police dispersed teen-agers from the grounds of Mission High School after violence had flared between black and Spanish-speaking students for six successive days. In Hamden, Conn., seven students were arrested for participating in a racial brawl in the high school cafeteria...
