The WJC  - quote - "has reorganized its executive structure to focus on
global terrorism"??? This is not news. The WJC has always supported
Isreal's use of terrorism against the Palestinians! Maybe the empahsis
on the word  "global " is what's different???

World Jewish Congress Reorganizes

 NEW YORK -- The World Jewish Congress, which led the effort to gain $11
 billion in restitution for Holocaust victims, says it has reorganized
 its executive structure to focus on global terrorism.
 
 Secretary General Israel Singer will become chairman of the 21-member
 executive committee, and Elan Steinberg, WJC staff director for the past
15 years, will move to executive vice president, Steinberg said
 Wednesday.
 
 Avi Becker, director of the WJC's Jerusalem office, will assume the
secretary general's title.
 
 "The Holocaust restitutions will remain our legacy, but we feel it is
 the right time to move on," Steinberg said. "The central issue now is
 security, the threat of worldwide terrorism and the menace to all
 democratic institutions."
 
 The leadership changes follow WJC President Edgar Bronfman Jr.'s
 recently announced decision to step down in 2002.

 The WJC has about 250,000 members in the United States and represents
 Jewish organizations in 80 countries.
