NEW YORK (JTA)—A
member of Kenya’s Parliament
predicted recently that his country
and most other Black African
countries would resume
diplomatic relations with Israel
after Egypt and Israel exchange
ambassadors on Feb. 26. But the
MP, Abdallah Mwidau, said he
could not estimate when the
resumption of relations would
actually begin.
Mwidau, who spoke to a
leadership group of the North
American Jewish Students’
Network, stressed that he was
speaking for himself and not his
government. He arrived in the
United States after three days in
Israel and is making a three-week
speaking tour of the U.S. under the
auspices of the Youth Institute for
Peace in the Middle East.
Kenya, which was one of the
Black .African nations to break
diplomatic relations with Israel in
1973, nevertheless has continued
to maintain friendly ties with
Israel. Kenya was used as a
refueling base by Israel during its
rescue of hostages in Entebbe,
Uganda, in 1976.
Mwidau said that the two
countries have commercial and
other ties and about IS students
from Kenya are presently studying
in Israel. He said that if the Nairobi
government decided to resume
diplomatic relations with Israel it
m would have the overwhelming
support of Parliament with
perhaps only three or four votes
against it.
Mwidau indicated that when the
majority of Black African nations
broke diplomatic relation* with
Israel in 1973 they expected to
receive economic benefit* from the
Arab oil producing states. “Most
African countries do not benefit
from the Arab countries,” he
declared. "The same price they sell
oil to you (U.S.) they sell to
Kenya.” He pointed out that the
high oil prices and the world
inflation which has hiked the
prices of imports has especially
hurt Kenya and other Black
African nations.
"They (the Arabs) do not invest
in our country,” Mwidau declared.
He said sail of the investments in
Black Africa are by the U.S.,
Britain, other Western countries
and Israel
Mwidau, a Moslem, urged Jews
not to look on all Moslems as their
enemies. He said the Arabs are
using Islam as a weapon, but "we
African Moslems are not enemies
of the Jewish community” and of
Israel. He said that Jews, Moslems
and Christians should join
together in improving conditions
for Africa. He said that if a Jewish
community or organization would
provide scholarships for Kenyan
Children to study in the U.S. or
Israel this would have more effect
than propaganda or international
aid programs.
Mwidau, the former mayor of
Mombasa, one of Kenya’s major
cities, said that he has always been j
a friend of the Jewish community
in Kenya and of Israel. There are
an estimated 400 Jews in Kenya
out of a total population of
14,340,000. He said that on his visit
to Israel last week he felt at home.
“I didn’t feel I was in a foreign
country,” he said.
He spoke of praying at the A1
Aqsa Mosque last Friday and how
“happy” he was to see it was well
taken care of. He also mentioned
his delight at seeing Arab and
Jewish children playing together in
Jerusalem.
Jerusalem must never be
divided, Mwidau said. He said
Mecca is governed by a single
country and Jerusalem should
have only one government
responsible for its administration,
namely, Israel.
Israeli soldiers build film set
JERUSALEM (ZINS)—Twenty Israeli Army engineers
welded 110 tons of steel into a new seige ramp, strong enough to
support a specially-built gargantuan Roman seige tower weighing
14 tons. What the Israeli Army accomplished in two weeks, took
j$cJ&P9Miiarmy and thousands of slaves two years to build. The
ramp is to be used in filming of Massadas Second Seige. The,
highly-acclaimed script is based on Ernest Gann’s "The
Antagonists” and on Roman historian Josephus Flavius' account
of the zealots, resistance, and eventual mass suicide.
