"It [intifadah/ is creating new scars which are always difficult to over come," Li'el Mid. The uprising, which stems from ah initiative to create a sep arate Arab state within the borders of Israel, has put many Israelis on the de fensive. "Israel has the right after five or six wars to make sure It has secure borders," Li'el said. Agreed. Every .country has a right to secure borders, but at what cost? Shouldn't all peoples have a right to a country of their own? We — patriotic, young Americans — thought so.

When Coyne was seven years old, he ran into a piece of bailing wire which punctured his right eye. Soon after, the eye was removed. Shortly after receiving his plastic eye, Coyne and his extremely religious mother attended an evangelical faith healing session. The faith healer, not knowing that the eye was plastic, tried to "heal" it. Coyne says he succeeded. In an attempt to prove his healing to the UM audience, Coyne covered his left eye, which is still there, with a hand kerchief that had been folded over 16 times. Members of the audience then taped down the cloth with 15 feet of tape. Then Coyne read anything the audi ence gave him. However, did he really read with the "miraculous" empty eye socket? any who attended thought so af ter seeing the performance. All M Jesus Student Fellowship mem bers who were interviewed were Utterly convinced of the authenticity of the performance. Even Anne, a skeptic from South Dade, said of the event, "I can't explain It... I believe it now." Her friend Tracy, who had attended the show to be healed, said the experi ence had made her "feel faint," al though she has not yet achieved the health she sought. A member of The Miami Hurricane had provided Coyne with a list of items from around his room. Coyne had defi nitely never seen the list before. Nor had he ever before seen the driver's li censes and check cashing cards. '__ There were no hidden cameras, no people within whispering distance and no special plugs in his ears.
