French anti-sect proposal draws protests from Baptists, others

By Wendy Ryan & Art Toalston

WASHINGTON (BP)--Baptists in France are keeping a close watch on
an anti-sect law that was approved by the French National
Assembly in June and which goes to Senate for approval in
September.

While freedom to proclaim the gospel has not yet been affected,
the bill has made the religious situation in France, a
predominantly Roman Catholic country, more difficult for the
minority Protestant groups and certainly for other groups, which
have been labeled as sects.

The genesis of the bill is the fear in France of groups such as
the Order of the Solar Temple, whose members committed suicide in
Canada, Switzerland and France in 1994 and 1995. A key concern in
the proposed law is "mental manipulation," which would be
severely punished.

A quasi-governmental list tallies more than 170 groups or
organizations considered to be dangerous. The list was compiled
without any input from the parties listed, such as Jehovah's
Witnesses, Mormons, Scientologists and the Unification Church.

The concern of the Federation of Evangelical Baptist Churches is
that the bill, titled "Human Rights and Public Liberties," can be
misused, said Etienne Lhermenault, FEBC general secretary.

The situation in France "has been made infinitely more
complicated by the vast ignorance of the French as far as
religion is concerned," he said.

He also criticized the media for their "confusing generalizations
and by the mediocre level of their information on Protestantism
and the evangelical churches." One of the groups targeted as
sects are the French Pentecostals, for example.

The FEBC has reminded that France, which did not grant freedom of
worship until 1905, is a secular state, and French law affirms
that the state recognizes no church or religion but guarantees to
all the right to worship freely in private.

The majority of Protestant churches, including French Baptists,
have approached various governmental offices to intervene on
behalf of Christian communities that had been unjustly accused
during deliberations over the law.

There is also concern in the worldwide religious community that
this move to identify religious groups and put them under the
control of the state is a growing one not only in France but also
in Germany, Austria, Belgium and other countries in Western
Europe.

"It is a sad day that in the beginning of the 21st century
universal religious freedom continues to be restricted, not only
in Eastern Europe but in Western Europe," said Denton Lotz,
general secretary of the Baptist World Alliance. "For 500 years
Baptists have died for and defended religious freedom for all
peoples and all religions. Indeed, the concept of religious
freedom for all is the historical contribution of Baptists to not
only western civilization but to the world.

"We must be continually vigilant in protecting religious freedom,
in majority and minority situations, Lotz continued. "Baptists
generally agree that where religious freedom is denied, the
denial of other freedoms soon follows. Of course, ultimately, as
Baptists we believe that religious freedom comes from Christ who
is the truth [that can] make you free."

In early August, the World Evangelical Fellowship's Religious
Liberty E-mail Conference issued a statement to the United
Nations jointly with Advocates International of Washington D.C.
and Christian Solidarity Worldwide in the United Kingdom.

Under the proposed law's prohibition against a religious group
"creating a state of mental or physical dependence," the
statement noted, "Power is given to the State to dissolve
religious groups and impose sentences of up to 5 years and fines
of up to 500,000 French Francs. ...

"The vagueness of the wording appears to seriously infringe upon
the freedom of speech, including speech intended to persuade
another person to a particular point of view, whether
philosophical, political, or religious," the three groups'
statement noted. "At various points in its consideration of
religious freedom the international community has clearly
recognized that the freedom to share one's beliefs is integral to
certain religions and is contained within the rights of both
freedom of religion and freedom of expression. Without the
freedom to speak and the related freedom to hear ideas there can
be no true freedom of belief as protected under international
law. The bill threatens to undermine these rights and to set an
unsuitable precedent in the region."

In 1996, the statement noted, "a list of 179 groups was published
and became a de-facto black list of 'dangerous cults.' The list
included groups that were regarded as mainstream Christian
groups, such as the Baptists. The categorization as cults aroused
immediate intolerance, with listed groups suffering
stigmatisation and marginalisation.

"No mechanism for dialogue with the government seems to exist,
nor does there appear to be a possibility of being removed from
the lists," the statement notes. "Furthermore, these lists have
gained quasi-official status as government officials have begun
to predicate their treatment of groups or individuals based on
the listing.

"These measures are being pursued in spite of the many
international guarantees binding France to respect
non-discrimination and religious freedom, as well as the
protection provided in Article 77 of the French Constitution that
'all citizens shall be equal before the law, without distinction
of origin, race, or religion.'

"We are not advocating protection for groups that cloak illegal
activities under the guise of religious freedom," the statement
noted. "Criminal activity by an individual or an organization --
religious, political, or otherwise -- can and should be
prosecuted under criminal law. Time-tested legal methods have
protected society from criminal elements in the past and
safeguarded minorities that may not be popular but are otherwise
law-abiding. These are the tools that should be resorted to
rather than blacklisting groups or conducting extra-judicial
investigations. ...

"The practice of establishing a two-tier system and of
classifying groups as cults, especially without proper
investigation or discussion, paves the way for serious abuses of
religious freedom," the statement concludes. "This is seen all
too often in states where such systems are used to oppress,
control and exploit legitimate religious activity. It is
essential, if democracy and human rights are to be secured, that
minority religious groups are given equal treatment and that
discrimination against such groups is rigorously avoided."

*** N.J. court strikes down abortion law

TRENTON, N.J. (AP) - The New Jersey Supreme Court on Tuesday struck
down a state law requiring minors to notify a parent before they can
get an abortion. Chief Justice Deborah Poritz, who wrote the 4-2
majority opinion, said that while the state government may take steps
to protect parents' rights, the parental-notification requirement
placed an excessive burden on a girl's constitutional rights. A
Superior Court judge in Bergen County upheld the law last year.
Because the case was appealed, the law never took effect. See

PA OFFICIAL THREATENS TO BLOW UP ISRAELI CITIES

"We are capable of blowing up Israeli cities." So said Palestinian
Authority Communications Minister Imad Faluji today. He added that the
Palestinians will not be satisfied with attacking military targets, but
would strike at "Israel's heart." Faluji made the comments in a mourner's
tent set up in Kfar Surda north of Ramallah, in the wake of the death of
village mayor Abu Mansour, who was killed by IDF gunfire last night.
Arutz-7's Haggai Huberman reports that the Arab man was killed when a
contingent of IDF Duvdevan unit soldiers entered the village to carry out
a mission. Soon after their entry, the soldiers were fired on from on top
of a roof within the village. The soldiers returned fire, fatally wounding
the gunman.

Although local Arabs claim that Abu Mansour was afraid that someone was
trying to break into his home - and Ha'aretz reported this morning that
they were attempting to arrest the man's son for suspected terrorist
activity - IDF commander Col. Gal Hirsch told Voice of Israel Radio today
that the soldiers were not headed in the direction of the house at the
time. "I have no idea why he fired on our men," said Col. Hirsch, "but
when someone fires on us, we fire back." Knesset member and Arafat
confidante Ahmed Tibi, also speaking on Voice of Israel, unequivocally
blamed the IDF for the death. He called the incident a "cold-blooded
killing and a provocation."

NOTED ANTI-ISRAEL FIGURE ADDRESSES DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION

A speaker featured yesterday at the Democratic National Convention in Los
Angeles - Maher Hathout - is a known supporter of terrorism and harbors
clear anti-Israel views. Hathout is a senior official of the Muslim
Public Affairs Council (MPAC), an organization that has earned the
criticism of leading Jewish organizations because of its sympathy for
terrorist groups. The Zionist Organization of America notes that the
President of the American Jewish Congress wrote on June 30, 1999, that the
MPAC "condones terrorist acts;" similarly, the Anti-Defamation League
announced in December 1998 that it would not co-sign public statements
with the MPAC because of the organization's refusal to issue "a clear-cut
denunciation of terror." (Forward, Dec.4 ,1998) At the National Press
Club on June 18, 1998, Maher Hathout stated that the Hizbullah terrorist
organization "is fighting for freedom...This is legitimate." In response
to America's attack on terrorist targets in Afghanistan and Sudan in
August 1998, Hathout said: "Our country is committing an act of terrorism.
What we did is illegal, immoral, unhuman, unacceptable, stupid and
un-American."

Specific examples of MPAC's antagonism towards Israel abound. The MPAC
Affairs Council co-signed a public statement on September 17, 1993, which
called for Israel's dissolution. It noted that "the establishment by
force, violence, and terrorism of a Jewish state in Palestine in 1948" was
"unjust" and "a crime." MPAC thereupon vowed to "work to overturn the
injustice." Hathout is also a member of a six-man editorial board for the
organization's paper, "The Minaret," which, in 1998 wrote: "Our
pluralistic society has become prisoner to a country that follows racism
and apartheid in its policies...The supporters of Israel have created a
quiet reign of terror in the U.S. People cannot speak loudly against the
apartheid policies of Israel."

IDF DISMISSES REPORT ON ABANDONMENT OF BURIAL PLACE

An official IDF spokesman has dismissed the Yesha Council's claim that the
Tomb of Joseph will be soon transferred to full Palestinian Authority
control. In response to a question posed by Arutz-7 correspondent Haggai
Huberman, the spokesman said that he "does not know of any such
initiative." The denial is not being taken seriously by Yesha leaders, who
note that a meeting has been scheduled between army officials and the
administration of the Od Yosef Chai Yeshiva located there to discuss the
future of the compound. According to information obtained by the Council,
Prime Minister Ehud Barak has already instructed the security
establishment to prepare for the transfer of the Tomb and the Shalom Al
Yisrael Synagogue in Jericho to PA control. The arrangement will allow for
the entry of Jews into the tomb compound, but no IDF soldiers will be
permitted to remain there.

Speaking with Arutz-7 today, Od Yosef Chai Yeshiva director Yehuda
Leibman said that army officials have been visiting the site over the past
few days to study possibilities for further security reinforcements. "In
our view, the recent moves are consistent with reports that the army
intends to abandon the site, although nobody in an official capacity has
specifically informed us of such a plan. Joseph's burial place holds no
significance for Moslems, and handing it over to the Palestinians would
essentially spell the end of the yeshiva - since past experience has shown
that handing over full control to the Arabs would result in great damage
to the site." During the Palestinian-initiated "tunnel riots" of 1996,
local Arabs set fire to the compound, causing tens of thousands of dollars
in damage. Another attack on the site during Arab riots this May pitted
armed Palestinians against IDF guards - and led to further damage to the
site. "The sages tell us that there are three places which the Gentile
world cannot claim were stolen by the Jewish people: the Temple Mount, the
Cave of the Patriarchs, and Joseph's Tomb," Leibman said. "It is
horrifying to think that a Jewish government would 'sell Joseph a second
time.' The name of our yeshiva, 'Od Yosef Chai' ('Joseph Lives On'), is no
mere slogan; Joseph didn't die. He lives on in the heart of every Jew…"

IMRA noted in 1996 that, aside from the joint IDF-Palestinian patrols
operating at Joseph's Tomb, the Oslo II agreement puts no limit on the
number of Israeli guards who can protect the compound, as long as they do
not wear uniforms. There is also no limitation on their equipment or their
deployment inside the site.

LEGISLATION TO RESTRAIN BARAK ON THE AGENDA

The Likud is pressing on with its efforts to prevent Prime Minister Ehud
Barak from attending another Camp David-like summit with Yasser Arafat. So
far, the party has succeeded in signing 61 Knesset members to a bill that
would prevent Barak from signing any further diplomatic deals as long as
he does not enjoy a Knesset majority. Signatories of the bill include MK
Chaim Katz (Am Echad) and MKs David and Maxim Levy (Gesher). Egyptian
Ambassador to Israel Muhammad Bassiouny said today that his country is
working towards securing a framework agreement between Israel and the
Palestinians, under the sponsorship of the United States. According to
Bassiouny, the deliberations are already "at an advanced stage." PA
official Nabil Sha'ath said today that the U.S. intends to soon host
another summit.

Diplomatic shorts: Prime Minister Barak will meet this evening in Jordan
with King Abdullah, where he plans to explain Israel's position on a
unilateral declaration of a Palestinian state and suggest why the Camp
David summit collapsed. Minister Shimon Peres will hold a similar
discussion with Chinese officials today... Acting Foreign Minister Shlomo
Ben-Ami officially takes on his new portfolio today; tonight, he meets
with Palestinian official Abu Alla...US envoy Dennis Ross will arrive in
Israel tomorrow in an effort to pursue a second Israel-PA summit...Yasser
Arafat continued his world tour with a trip to Indonesia today..

          Who Pays Attention to TV and Radio
          Commercials? Whispercode Knows

          By BERNARD STAMLER

They are everywhere, cluttering the radio dial and the broadcast and cable
television channels as never before: commercials, lots of them, jammed by
eager advertisers into what seems to be every available second of
programming time.

So is anyone actually paying attention? Of course, broadcasters say. But
what proof do they have?

Sure, there are the ratings, which are provided by services like Nielsen for
television and Arbitron for radio and which are supposed to track just how
many people are watching or listening to given programs at given times. But
the relatively small audience samples and traditional audience-measuring
techniques used by these rating services -- hand-written diaries, for example,
or manually operated people meters, where participants push buttons when
they watch television -- are said by their detractors to be inexact and quaintly
old-fashioned, unfairly favoring traditional networks to the detriment of less-
established media outlets.

The result? Advertisers are clamoring for more precise data, and for the
technology that can provide it, says Lee Weinblatt.

And Mr. Weinblatt thinks he can oblige.

The chief executive of the Pretesting Company, based in Tenafly, N.J., Mr.
Weinblatt is no stranger to audience response measurement. For more than
a decade, his firm has been testing commercials for clients like Anheuser-
Busch, Burger King and Johnson & Johnson before they are broadcast,
determining whether viewers are likely to watch them or, instead, to switch
them off on sight. And now he says that he has developed something that
goes even further: a passive system that measures exactly who is in a room
or automobile at the precise moment a television or radio commercial is
broadcast.

The new system is called Whispercode, and unlike the firm's commercial
pretesting, which is conducted in specially outfitted locations, it operates
entirely within the home or automobile of its participants. The system
involves the encoding of commercials with inaudible, identifying signals; test
participants need do nothing to activate it.

Instead, once transmitted, the encoded signals are automatically detected
by a small device worn by participants -- a bracelet, for example, or a
keychain -- that will function provided they are in the room or car where the
television set or radio emitting the signal is located. The devices are motion
sensitive, so a participant could not put one on the table and leave the
house. The device then sends a signal to a nearby recording box "the size of
a paperback book," according to Mr. Weinblatt, and the box records the fact
that the wearer was in the room when the commercial was broadcast. It even
records whether a viewer leaves the room in the middle of a commercial. The
device later downloads its data via modem to a central computer, which
makes it available to advertisers the next morning.

Mr. Weinblatt says the system will be in place in a "few thousand" homes by
year-end, and in thousands more by the end of 2001. Participants will be
chosen at random, but in a manner that is demographically accurate and
representative of a cross-section of American households, he said. And they
will be compensated for their involvement by various premiums or coupons --
no cash -- relating to products or services like dry cleaning, which are
probably not among those that will be advertised and measured via
Whispercode..

"With Whispercode, we will finally be providing our clients with a true
accounting of where their advertising money is going," he said.

Perhaps. Still, despite expressions of interest from various advertisers and a
satellite broadcaster, no one has signed up for Whispercode, Mr. Weinblatt
acknowledged. And even Whispercode has its limitations; while the system
may provide an accurate gauge of a person's physical presence at the time
of a broadcast, any couch potato can tell you that that does not necessarily
mean that he or she is actually listening or watching. Or, for that matter,
whether he or she is even awake.

"That is a flaw inherent in any passive monitoring system," commented Anne
Elliot, a spokeswoman for Nielsen Media Research, the television rating
company. Active survey devices like Nielsen's people meter are therefore
better in many ways, she said, because they require participants to actually
do something to indicate when they start or stop viewing a show.

But people meters also have problems, because they are dependent on the
honesty of participants and their willingness to keep pushing buttons, among
other things. And so, despite their drawbacks, passive systems still "have
enough interest for people like us for us to investigate them, too," Ms. Elliot
said.

Nielsen Media Research has in fact signed an agreement with Arbitron, the
radio survey company, to participate in a test of just such a system, the
Arbitron Portable People Meter. Similar to Mr. Weinblatt's Whispercode (the
Pretesting Company actually sued Arbitron back in the mid-1990's for patent
infringement with regard to the Portable People Meter, but lost the case in
1996), the Arbitron system differs, however, in one significant respect: it
encodes entire programs, not commercials.

Arbitron began shipping encoding devices to Philadelphia-area radio stations
this week. It expects to begin testing in a few months and, if testing is
successful, to use the meters eventually to replace the manual paper and
pencil diaries now maintained by its radio ratings participants, said an
Arbitron spokesman, Thom Mocarsky, who added that "everyone who has
seen the system is very impressed."

Everyone, that is, except Mr. Weinblatt, who contends that its failure to
measure commercials makes the Portable People Meter an inferior device,
and that Arbitron and Nielsen are more concerned with preserving an
obsolete status quo than with truly measuring audience.

Not so, Mr. Mocarsky says.

"Our system can encode anything," he said. "But we've decided to base it on
programming and not commercials because that is the standard today. It's
simply a different technique."

Russia holding
big war games
Moscow denounces NATO
for eastward expansion

Editor's note: WND's multi-lingual reporter Toby Westerman specializes
in monitoring global shortwave broadcasts and reading foreign-language
news journals for information not readily available from the domestic
press. Each month, Westerman presents a special in-depth report in
WorldNetDaily's monthly magazine, WorldNet. Readers may subscribe to

By I.J. Toby Westerman

Russia and Belarus recently held massive war games meant to "make NATO
strategists think twice about the dangerous consequences" of moving
eastward.

Moscow characterized the exercises, called "Combat Unity 2000," as
unprecedented in their magnitude, taking place "for the first time ever
.. on such a scale." The war games were "in response to NATO's growing
activity" in Eastern Europe, and included surface ships, submarines,
aircraft and practice in amphibious landing operations.

Moscow vowed to "take the necessary measures" to counter North Atlantic
Treaty Organization expansion, according to official Russian sources.

The report of the massive war games was carried by the Voice of Russia
World Service, the official broadcasting service of the Russian
government.

Moscow denounced what it referred to as "NATO's military ... flexing its
muscle close to the borders" of the former Soviet republics, and
condemned recent visits by NATO officials to nations that had been
members of the now defunct USSR.

Moscow specifically mentioned a U.S. frigate joining in military
exercises with vessels from the republic of Georgia and the arrival of a
Turkish military delegation to the former Soviet republic of Moldova,
bordering between Romania and Ukraine.

NATO officials have expressed interest in close relations with all the
former Soviet republics, and each is a participant in NATO's Partnership
for Peace program. In July, NATO Secretary General Lord George Robertson
visited the newly independent Central Asian states of Kazakhstan,
Kirgizia and Uzbekistan. Earlier this month, a NATO delegation toured an
air base for possible use by the Western alliance following the
withdrawal of Russian troops, which occurred only days before.

In June, Ukraine, regarded as second only to Russia in importance in the
old Soviet Union, participated with several NATO members in large-scale
naval exercises in the Black Sea.

Moscow, however, remains uncompromising in its hostility to a continuing
NATO expansion into what was the former Soviet Union. Russia labels the
increased activity and military exercises of NATO near the former Soviet
territory a "security risk." The NATO expansions, in the words of the
broadcast, may require "necessary measures," including the "Combat Unity
2000" war games.

Russia is continuing its consolidation of the Union State formed with
Belarus and is in the process of merging the two nation's military
structures.

The Russian-led Commonwealth of Independent States, successor entity to
the USSR, is also promising to take on new life.

According to Moscow, "interest in military cooperation is beginning to
stir in the capitals of those CIS countries whose attitudes toward such
cooperation used to be cautious."

Ukraine, which participated in NATO exercises in June, will join Russia,
Belarus and eight other CIS members in another set of military exercises
at the end of this month. While committing a portion of its military to
the upcoming Russian war games, Ukraine also defied the protests of the
U.S. State Department and the Pentagon, trading a portion of its
strategic bomber fleet in payment of its 2 billion dollar natural-gas
debt to Russia.

Despite NATO's overtures, the Central Asian republics remain firmly
bound to Moscow, as is the rest of the CIS.

Even Georgia, which may be ready to give NATO a recently abandoned
Russian air base, has stated through its foreign ministry that good
relations with Moscow is a "geopolitical imperative." At a recent CIS
summit meeting, Eduard Shevardnadze, president of Georgia and former
Soviet foreign minister, spoke out in favor of maintaining Russia's
leadership position in the CIS and further developing "the integration
process" among CIS member nations.

Shevardnadze was also the first CIS leader to express his support of
Vladimir Putin as leader of the summit discussions, despite the fact
that Putin at the time was only the acting Russian president.
