...seemingly endless crisis in Lebanon would trigger another Middle East war that neither side really wants?although that will remain a worrisome accidental possibility. But if war breaks out, Israel will come armed with an awesome military threat: nuclear bombs. In an exclusive report (see page 39), TIME presents hitherto undisclosed details of Israel's nuclear arsenal...
...more trying and complex-as if Herman Melville had written Tom Swift. The press made a mockery of his quest for privacy.

He went on to complain that some Germans...

Because it is often the minority hookers who get caught first and suffer the most from economic and racial discrimination, civil rights activists have become interested in the movement. And as members of a hitherto unorganized profession, prostitutes identify with exploited workers who lack the support of powerful labor unions...
