...moment, however, Arafat is the darling of the Arab world. Still basking in his U.N. triumph, the P.L.O. leader last week flew off to Cuba aboard an Algerian Boeing 707 to confer with another revolutionary turned politician, Fidel Castro. Meanwhile, there were six dead in more border clashes along the Israel-Lebanon frontier last week, and there was a dramatic partial mobilization of Israeli forces directed toward Syria, which, according to Rabin, was unloading some 20 shiploads of Soviet arms at the port of Latakia. Alarming as the mobilization was, neither the Israelis nor Kissinger felt that hostilities were imminent...

But to maintain his narrowing lead, he must hope that moderates and conservatives in both parties distrust Clark enough to vote for the incumbent...
Among the 650,000 Cubans who have immigrated to the U.S. since Fidel Castro came to power in Havana 15 years ago, the dream for many years was of a post-Castro return to the island homeland. The Cuban exiles still bristle at any sign of a coming rapprochement between the two countries, and were angry about last week's visit to Cuba by U.S. Senators Jacob Javits and Claiborne Pell (see THE WORLD). Miami Extra, a Florida-based Cuban newspaper, scorned the Senators as "tourists of socialism" and ran a cartoon showing the two emerging, battered and bloodied...
