This evening in Jerusalem a memorial service will be held for the late Rabbi Meir Kahane, the founder of the Jewish Defense League (J.D.L.), who was assassinated 18 years ago. Rabbi Kahane also did much to free Jews from the U.S.S.R. during the years of the Iron Curtain. He was also the personality around which the Kach Knesset party was formed, that favored ending terrorism by transferring offending Arabs.
At 4:30 p.m. there will be a smaller, grave side ceremony on Har HaMenuchot. The larger public gathering will be at 6:30 p.m. at the Heichal David hall, in the Romema neighborhood.
Romema is located between the entrance to Jerusalem and the Mattisdorf neighborhood.
