...defense?" cried Knesset Opposition Leader Menahem Beigin about a youth killed by a Syrian mine. Both Israel and Syria last week accepted U.N. Secretary-General U Thant's plea for talks on farming rights within the demilitarized zone, but the Israelis are skeptical. They believe that Syria is intent only on challenging Israel's territorial rights...
