...chasm between two such mistrustful adversaries. And those ideas work, says Richard Haass, Middle East adviser under President George Bush, "only if the President is willing to back them up." Clinton could bask in the South Lawn signing of the 1993 agreement because Arafat and Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin were willing to make peace on their own. The test for Clinton now is whether he is prepared to weigh in when the two leaders aren't willing...
...Bible code contained an accurate prediction of the Gulf War before it began. I was not being "defensive" when I told your reporter that I believe the Bible encodes all our possible futures rather than one predetermined future. I was simply repeating what I told Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin in 1994, when I warned him that the code indicated he might be killed in 1995.

I was not taught to hate or to destroy, and when a former member of the yeshiva was blown up by terrorists in Jerusalem, our rabbis did not tell us to go out and stage a revenge attack. And when Israeli Prime Minister Yitzchak Rabin, may his memory be a blessing, was killed by a so-called religious Jew, a so called Orthodox Jew, the rabbis in my yeshiva all talked about how they could not sleep at night for shame. Neither could I, and neither could hundreds of thousands of Orthodox Jews throughout the world...
