In the lobby some were buying YAF sweatshirts, buttons that said "Liberate Czechoslovakia" and buttons that said "Up Against the Wall, Commies"; pamphlets about "The Fascist threat to America"; "Youth in Politics" and "Voluntary Military" kits in large brown envelopes; and posters of Ronald Reagan, Barry Goldwater, William F.

"Ghazi is marching to Haifa," said another. In plainer language, the fedayeen command advised its men to "keep your finger on the trigger until the fascist military rule has been removed." In Amman, shopkeepers, who have suffered through previous confrontations, shuttered their stores. Schools closed, offices emptied, and civilians huddled in the basements of limestone houses on Amman's seven hills. Telephone lines went dead. The airport waved off incoming flights and sent Royal Jordanian Airline...
