...Although Peres has hinted in the past that he might be willing to give up some West Bank land in exchange for peace, he has avoided directly addressing the question in the current campaign. Israelis are almost evenly divided on the subject. A poll published last month in Ma'ariv, a Tel Aviv newspaper, showed that while 43% backed a peace agreement in which Jordan conceded some West Bank territory, 41% were opposed to giving up any land whatsoever. "Those who call themselves Palestinian Arabs should be grateful that we permit them to live in our homeland," says a West...
...through the besieged gulf, the Iraqis are desperate to find an alternative route that will allow them to replenish their war-drained treasury. It was learned last week that a suggestion had come from an unexpected source: the Israelis. In an interview with the Israeli newspaper Ma'ariv, Prime Yitzhak Shamir revealed that offered to let Iraq pump its oil through long-unused pipeline, built in the 1930s, stretches from Baghdad to the Israeli port of Haifa. Iraq, which does not recognize Israel, rejected the invitation...

Rachmani's photograph shows another young man, head down and with a small trace of blood on his face, being hustled away by an Israeli brigadier general and two uniformed soldiers...

Israeli Defense Minister Ariel Sharon added a new element of tension to the situation when he declared last week in a newspaper interview that the Soviet Union and Israel should enter into negotiations. "Come, let us meet," Sharon was quoted by the newspaper Ma'ariv as saying to the Soviets. "[We] have something to talk about." The remark was nonsense, since the Soviet Union and Israel have very little to talk about at the moment. But as Sharon no doubt intended, it annoyed the U.S. As usual, no one knew for sure whether the Defense Minister...
