...lying alone in a space not much bigger than a coffin. For four hours police had searched the unlighted interior of Satian No. 6 (satian is Sanskrit for "supreme truth"), a warehouse in an Aum compound near Mount Fuji. Then an investigator tapped on a wall and found a hollow spot. Police cut in with an electric saw and discovered a bearded man in a deep pink pajama suit lying in a compartment about 10 ft. long and 3 ft. high.

Leading thinkers like Amos Oz have helped build the Israeli consensus for peace by critiquing flaws in the Zionist dream. Yet just as the Israeli public must recognize its moral imperative to stay committed to peace, Palestinians must reject a path to self-determination which is bloodied with the death of the innocent. Where are the Palestinian voices of self-critique that must speak up against the radical brutality of groups like Hamas...
