...balance, the U.S. did vote for a U.N. Security Council resolution demanding Israeli withdrawal from Ramallah--which, under an agreement signed by Israel, has been under Palestinian self-rule since 1995.

"I firmly believe that we can achieve a peace in the region," he said...

During my high school years, YM and Seventeen magazines were a vital source of information, and they often included special pullout sections revealing the essentials every girl had to know before, during and after the deed.
