It now seems, with the return acquiescence in the imposition of Syrian hegemony to office of President Gorbachev, that Soviet foreign over Lebanon, as well as large cash subsidies from policy will remain essentially unchanged, and therefore Saudi Arabia. Syrian participation in the peace the conclusions drawn here are still valid. conference would consolidate Assad's American After months of strenuous diplomatic efforts, U.S. alliance, and hold out the prospect of Israeli Secretary of State James Baker seems to have withdrawal from the Syrian Golan Heights, occupied produced, at last, some tangible results. since 1967. At the Moscow Summit, President Bush even felt For Yitzchak Shamir – heading Israel's most right- that the time was ripe to announce solemnly the wing nationalist government ever – the American convening of a Middle East Peace Conference in proposals presented a difficult dilemma. Any October, under the auspices of himself and of his succesful peace process would inevitably involve Soviet colleague. Bush made the announcement with territorial concessions. For months, Shamir hedged the knowledge that all but one of the prospective about details and employed delaying tactics – at participants had already given their consent. which he is an incomparable expert. However, no It had not been so difficult to get the support of the Israeli Prime Minister could afford to openly defy traditional Americam allies in the Arab World: the President of the United States. Shamir received Egypt, Saudi Arabia and the Gulf states. And for dire warnings, from American Jewish leaders and Jordan every opportunity was welcome to repair its from some of the most friendly senators, with regard relationship with the U.S. – severely damaged by the to the possible consequences of definitely rejecting Gulf war. the proposed conference.

Syrian participation in the auspices for the conference. Yes to conditions upon aid! The following is the text of an advertisement published in Ha'aretz and the Jerusalem Post, July 3. The Prime Minister is opposed to the American loan guarantees being made conditional upon Israel openly reflects the calling off further settlement activities in the Occupied Territories. He pretends that this position sentiment of the Israeli society. He argues that such a condition is tantamount to foreign interference with Israel's internal affairs. The opposite is true. Guaranteeing billions of dollars to the Israeli government without making such guarantees conditional upon cessation of settlement activities amounts to a repudiation of all chances to reach a peaceful settlement, which alone would guarantee Israel's future and security. be Not subjecting the loan guarantees to such a condition would mean that more billions of dollars would channeled to further finance the settlements rather than to integrating the Soviet immigrants – for whose well-being the guarantees are requested. Refraining from making the guarantees conditional upon cessation of settlement activities would be a direct interference of the U.S. administration in Israel's internal affairs. We call upon the Israeli public to oppose Shamir's position and explicitly demand that such a condition be attached to the American loan guarantees so that the money will not flow into the settlements, each one of which constitutes an obstacle on the road to peace.

  • The National Left (First Draft) by Shmuel Hasfari and Eldad Yaniv
    The National Left (First Draft) by Shmu'el Hasfari and Eldad Yaniv Open Source Center OSC Summary: A self-published book by Israeli playwright Shmu'el Hasfari and political activist Eldad Yaniv entitled "The National Left (First Draft)" bemoans the death of Israel's political left. http://www.fas.org/irp/dni/osc/israel-left.pdf Statement by the Authors The contents of this publication are the responsibility of the authors, who also personally bore the modest printing costs. Any part of the material in this book may be photocopied and recorded. It is recommended that it should be kept in a data-storage system, transmitted, or recorded in any form or by any electronic, optical, mechanical means, or otherwise. Any form of commercial use of the material in this book is permitted without the explicit written permission of the authors. 1. The Left The Left died the day the Six-Day War ended. With the dawn of the Israeli empire, the Left's sun sank and the Small [pun on Smol, the Hebrew word for Left] was born. The Small is a mark of Cain, a disparaging term for a collaborator, a lover of Arabs, a hater of Israel, a Jew who turns against his own people, not a patriot. The Small-ists eat pork on Yom Kippur, gobble shrimps during the week, drink espresso whenever possible, and are homos, kapos, artsy-fartsy snobs, and what not. Until 1967, the Left actually managed some impressive deeds -- it took control of the land, ploughed, sowed, harvested, founded the state, built the army, built its industry from scratch, fought Arabs, settled the land, built the nuclear reactor, brought millions of Jews here and absorbed them, and set up kibbutzim, moshavim, and agriculture.

Though this encounter is not recorded in any history books, it was memorable enough for those who took part. – Stanley Kubrick, Barry Lyndon New Mexico “Everything looks way overexposed out here,” Barrett grumbled as he drove into the studio parking lot. The direct sun, treeless streets, and cloudless skies make for a brightness that caused people to say his photos were harsh and software could take something off. “But that’s what New Mexico looks like,” he’d shoot back. “Overexposed. Way overexposed.” He found a place to park in the visitors section and walked toward the television studio that did contract work for international news stations. “At least it’s easy to park. Even in downtown Albuquerque.” Barrett stiffened and looked warily as a young man exited the building and came toward him. The man walked past him, got into his car, and drove off. Barrett continued to watch him a few moments more before entering the building. “Maybe someday I’ll stop doing that.” “Barrett Parker,” he announced to the receptionist. “I’m scheduled for an interview on Al Jazeera at two.” She made a quick look on her screen and replied, “Studio 4, just down the hall to the left.” He nodded and walked down the hallway, stopping to check his longish hair and short beard for the proper amount of dishevelment which he thought conveyed distance from convention.
