  • Weizmann Institute Dinner, Chicago, Illinois, September 10, 1967
    [-ry~J September 10, 1967 Palmer House, Chicago, Ill. INTRODUCTION BY ADLAI E. STEVENSON III, State Treasurer of Illinois: Philip Klutznick has no cause to be grateful. We are all his debtors, and that includes my father, too. In 1789, when John Adams was the vice president, he wrote once and said, 11 My country has, in its wisdom, contrived for me the most insignificant office that ever the invention of man has contrived or his imagination conceived. Apparently John Adams was unfamiliar with the office of State Treasurer {laughter) I won't mention the office of Lieutenant Governor,- - but all that, of course, is now changed. The course of events has thrust upon our Vice President responsibility of a magnitude which our founding fathers could never have conceived; and the mark of one man has given that office powers over the affairs of men which range from the control of outer space to the exploration of our oceans' floors. As mayor of Minne- apolis, ... as a United States Senator, ... as Vice President of the United States, and all his countless public endeavors, Hubert Humphrey has brought a touch of warmth, a careful blend of realism and idealism, a relentless devotion to the welfare of all, especially the underdog, and energies which only a pure heart and high purpose could generate. In the midst of appalling pressures, in times of cynicism and indifference, he has always shared with another of his predecessors, Thomas Jefferson, a boundless enthusiasm for the possibilities of - 2- reason and progress. He shares, too, with Thomas Jefferson, a con- viction that excellence is the heart of the Democratic hope, the animating ideal toward which it is forever groping.

    884653.indd4653.indd 1 3-1177-0088 4 4:03:30:03:30 P PMM Letter from the Chairs Dear Friends, Welcome to Imagining a More Civil Society: The Summit on the University and the Jewish Community. One year ago a steering committee convened at Hillel’s Kraft Center for Jewish Student Life at Columbia University to begin planning this unique event. We set out not just to catalogue the many positive trends in civil discourse and civic engagement on campus, but to imagine what could be. With the generous support of the Einhorn Family Charitable Trust, this remarkable group of people – leaders of the academy and the Jewish community – developed a program that enables participants to refl ect on who we are and the ideas of others, to discuss and learn from others in an effort to share and integrate our truths, and to act to create greater opportunities for others. As we imagine a more civil society, we will focus deeply on discourse itself and also on activi- ties that foster safe dialogue and productive contributions to society. We will delve into the challenges of creating community, often raising questions without defi nitive solutions. We will demonstrate what we hope to lead on campus: respectful, authentic conversations in which we hold multiple truths simultaneously, listening carefully while articulating our own thoughts and opening ourselves to letting go and learning anew. We will bring back to campus fresh ideas on discourse and civic engagement. We would like to take this opportunity to thank Hillel International Board of Governors Chairman Edgar M.

  • The Ugly Truth About the "ADL: They Are a Bunch of Racist Thugs Who Push Drugs
    Since the First Printing: ADL in Middle of A Spy Scandal Too Big to Bury On January 15, eight days after the publica- tion of the first edition of this book, The San Francisco Chronicle shocked the public with the revelation that the office of the ADL in San Francisco was at the center of a scandal involving a San Francisco police officer and a Bay Area art dealer/self-described private eye who were suspected of selling illegally obtained information to agents of the South African government. The two men, Sgt. Tom Gerard of the San Francisco Police Department, and Roy Bullock, a longtime paid undercover operative for the local office of the Anti- Defamation League of B'nai B'rith (ADL), had been undo: Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) scrutiny since vii viii SINCE THE FIRST PRINTING 1990, when federal agents discovered that secret Bureau records on American black Muslims had been obtained by South African spies. The trail pointed to Bullock, who, in addition to his fulltime paid work for the ADL, had been "moonlighting" as an undercover snitch for the Bureau. On at least one occasion, Bullock received a 1500 cash payment from the FBI for infiltrating meetings of two Bay Area groups. Bullock had access to confidential Bureau files, and became a suspect when FBI files stowed up in the hands of the South African government at the same time he was regularly meeting with two South African spies and passing confidential data to them. Bullock received cash payments that eventually totaled over $16,000.
