...ruling Labor Party, represented by Deputy Premier Yigal Allon, argues for the establishment of paramilitary settlements in the occupied territories. Moshe Dayan favors an interlinked economy to benefit Jew and Arab. A program advocated by Gahal, a right-wing nationalist party led by Cabinet Minister Menahem Begin, is for outright annexation. Though she generally favors Allon, Mrs. Meir has publicly refused to commit herself to any of these approaches?until and unless negotiations with the Arabs begin. For the present, the occupation issue scarcely figures in electoral politics. Elections for seats in the Knesset will take place next month...
...everyday life, there is hardly a sign of outright Israeli repression. The administrative and military posture of the occupiers is low; West Bank Governor Brigadier General Raphael Vardi, who controls some 600,000 Palestinian Arabs, does his job with a lean staff of no more than 300 Israelis.

That really pissed him off, though. How could she forget that she had a date with him on Friday? I mean, no girl could just outright forget a date!

To make it even more pleasant, the President is getting an estimated $75,000 golf course free. Local firms are building the small course (four greens, seven tees just behind the villa's swimming pool) at their own expense. At the same time, Nixon is adding his own distinctive touches to enhance the comforts of the house. Recent visitors noticed a new bulletproof glass wall beside the swimming pool and a sound...
Mother Hen. The work was started in mid-1967 by Quintana's Ingenieros Civiles Asociados (ICA), which owns outright or has an interest in 33 firms in Mexico. The ICA group employs 30,000 people, more than any other private enterprise in Mexico, and had sales of $220 million last year, the equivalent of 1% of the country's gross national product. Outside Mexico, it is engaged in heavy construction work in Guatemala, Honduras and Nicaragua...
