NEW YORK: Pakistan will accept assistance from Israel and American Jews to help in the rescue and relief of hundreds of thousands of Pakistanis left homeless by a massive earthquake, according to American Jewish Congress-Council

for World Jewry spokesman: . American Jewish organizations including the American Jewish Congress-Council for World Jewry, the Joint Distribution Committee, and the American Jewish World Service are already raising funds for Pakistan relief. The decision to accept financial support and equipment from Israel came during a telephone call earlier Tuesday from President Pervez Musharraf to Jack Rosen, chairman of the AJCongress-Council for World Jewry. President Musharraf also told Mr. Rosen that Pakistan would warmly welcome help from American Jewry.
