...avoid an aerial encounter with the Soviets, the Israelis have not flown deep-penetration raids into Egypt since April 13. Defense Minister Moshe Dayan has openly declared that Israel must seek a coexistence with the Soviets in the skies above Egypt. By that he means that Israel will restrict its raids to the immediate canal area if the Soviets will keep their aircraft only over Egyptian cities. So far, that uneasy modus vivendi has worked...
...imperiled. "We do not want to inflict casualties on the Soviet pilots or any other pilots," said Premier Golda Meir, "but we have no choice." Later she added: "Other nations can surrender and still live, but we do not have that alternative." Defense Minister Moshe Dayan warned that if aerial coexistence failed, the situation could lead to "something we did not intend-our attacking the Russians and Russians attacking our aircraft. In whatever words you may wish to define it, this means war with the Russians." In addition, Dayan warned that Israel must not allow itself to be maneuvered into...
...British-led police began echoing down from the hills. Last week, at diamond-rich Kao, rebels reportedly hurled boulders down on a police convoy. In retaliation, the police commandeered light aircraft from Lesotho Airways (a tiny air-taxi operation owned by the government) and, in a throwback to the aerial tactics of 1914, dumped hand grenades on the rebels. Total rebel losses since the fighting began are put at 150; the police admit that two lawmen have been killed and several more wounded...
...deep spaces. Vancouver's 25-year-old Michael DeCourcy prints high-contrast images of waves, pebbles and flying birds on the sides of cardboard boxes, then has them stacked up by workmen in whatever arrangement they choose. Vacuum molding enables Californians Robert Brown and James Pennuto to transform aerial photographs of rugged terrain into three-dimensional centour maps. The simplest work of all is Jerry McMillan's Torn Bag: a paper bag ripped open to reveal a delicate woodland landscape printed on the inside...
...purpose of these deep aerial attacks on military targets is to interfere with the Egyptian armed forces' preparations for war, not to allow them to remain at peace so that they can prepare for a war. Nasser said half a year ago that he has half a million soldiers and was going up to a million. Our deep penetrations definitely disturb these preparations. Large amounts of equipment have been destroyed. The Egyptians have been forced to move back antiaircraft and artillery to protect themselves not only on the canal but also west of Cairo...
