...Iowa caucus on Feb. 20, Jackson's Syrian success will probably not gain him much. Said Iowa Democratic Committee Chairman David Nagle: "Iowa is an organization state, and Jackson doesn't have an organization here." As for New Hampshire, any attempt to exploit Goodman's ties to the state cannot be built on race, since its black population is less than .5%.

Even Perle, who had been Nitze's most unrelenting and effective opponent in 1982, strongly suggested to a congressional subcommittee that he might now support walk in the woods if it were made as a final U.S. offer. Weinberger was upset. He had long since become convinced that the U.S. must not, under any circumstances, give up the Pershing...
