...Meir is in good health and plans to serve the four-year term to which she is almost certain to be elected. Nevertheless she is grooming Deputy Premier Allon, 50, a loyal, Oxford-educated party man, as her successor. Dayan, 54, will undoubtedly fight for the job too, but Mrs. Meir considers him a maverick unsuited for the top. To broaden Allon's experience, Mrs. Meir is thinking of making him Foreign Minister, a job now held by the mellifluous Abba Eban.

His ready informality, which encourages even the Joint Chiefs of Staff and other senior men at the Pentagon to call their boss "Mel," fits the vocation. So do his competitiveness in debate...
...most ironic consequence of the invasion may be that it transformed Moscow's most loyal allies into enduring enemies. Betrayed by the West at Munich in 1938, the Czechoslovaks embraced the Soviets as their wartime liberators and protectors. No amount of Communist propaganda can now convince the mass of Czechoslovak people that the Soviets remain their benefactors. As wall posters in Prague...
