Looking For Allies ISRAEL Two of the Middle East's oldest enemies, Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon and Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat, found a rare bit of common ground last week.

He has always supported reproductive freedom as a fundamental human right, as well as social programs that women need disproportionately. As a man who knows what war is like, he has tended to be more restrained in his willingness to wage...
