Anne Frank...

With regard to “Israel and Anne Frank’s Jewishness” (Column One, April 13), the work of self-hating Jew Lillian Hellman and others lives on in intolerable ways.

Anne Frank wearing a keffiyeh or pointing an accusing finger at Israeli soldiers are just two examples of this unconscionable abuse. Now she is being used to fund B’Tselem, Breaking the Silence and other anti-Israel organizations. Is it really too much of an exaggeration to say that she is being murdered again?

As her work and name are no longer subject to copyright in most countries, it would be a good time to resurrect the noble work done by Meyer Levin who, as described in his tragic book Obsession, was driven insane trying to fight against the monstrous distortion of the fate of this little Jewish girl. Other steps can also be taken. LOUIS GARB Jerusalem The writer is an attorney.

The irony of the New Israel Fund using Anne Frank for its anti-Israel campaign should not be lost on what happens in cases of the misuse of wealth by second and third generations.

The money that was the foundation for the NIF came from the wealth of Jack Weiler. Weiler built a giant real estate business that had properties from New York to San Francisco. He was a very proud Jew, and so was his daughter. He was known for his “sukka in the sky” on the roof of one of his skyscrapers in New York. To receive an invitation to enter this sukka, you had to be a donor to good Jewish causes.

Unfortunately, the next generation of Weilers created the NIF with his hard-earned earned money. I believe his great-grandchildren would not have been allowed in his sukka. MURRAY S. GREENFIELD
