...Hebrew University of Jerusalem, is Aridor's mirror image. Arieli is one of the founders of the "Movement for Peace and Security," which was started by teachers, students and center and left-wing Israeli politicians in 1967 to influence opinion on the question of occupied territories. Arieli would prefer to call the hawks "annexationists" and the doves "negotiators." The annexationists, he feels, are "fanatics at worst and Zionist chauvinists at best." Some negotiator proposals for solving the Middle East crisis...
...internal party squabbling, of course, was at best meaningless and at worst infuriating to most of the nation. The peasantry, by and large, had never been wholeheartedly in favor of the Bolsheviks-many of whom had rejected the peasants entirely as a factor in revolutionary change-and tended to prefer such groups as the Mensseviks and Social Revolutionaries, who opposed the requisitioning and endorsed equal land ownership and a free agricultural market.

Rogers' letter to the Arabs accepted their point of view, but noted that "we believe the parties will find it necessary to meet together at some point...
Jesus freaks. Evangelical hippies. Or, as many prefer to be called, street Christians. Under different names-and in rapidly increasing numbers-they are the latest incarnation of that oldest of Christian phenomena: footloose, passionate bearers of the Word, preaching the kingdom of heaven among the dispossessed of the earth. Their credentials are ancient, for they claim to be emulating Christ and his Disciples. They often build their lives on the Book of Acts, living in common like the early Christians. They abjure drugs, proscribe sex outside marriage, pray and preach incessantly among drifters, addicts and homosexuals and even, occasionally...
