...hostility between the Syrians and the Israelis, of course, is more terrestrial than spiritual: Possession of the Golan Heights, which Israel captured from Syria in their 1967 war remains the key to an elusive peace deal between the two countries that remain, technically, at war. While both Yitzhak Rabin and Ehud Barak - and even Benjamin Netanyahu, in secret, according to reports - had negotiated with Syria over returning the territory, they were unable to resolve disputes over just where the international border began and ended and over the security guarantees required by Israel. The pope's visit to the Golan Heights...

...pearls for a "softer look." The designer wants to send a message that everyday life should go on despite the latest outbreaks of violence in the Middle East. Levi has created similar Miss Universe dresses. She adorned the gown of 1998's Miss Israel with the faces of Yitzhak Rabin, Yasser Arafat and Bill Clinton. Her 1999 effort--worn by the first Arab Miss Israel--featured a Star of David. The heavy-duty 2001 creation could also keep Miss Israel safe from the roving eye of pageant director Donald Trump...

...Purim parades were canceled, and the mass Maimuna celebrations that mark the end of Passover in Jerusalem were very poorly attended. No one is under any illusion that Sharon has all the answers, but right now they're expecting less. They feel closed in, under siege. The allure of Rabin's peace plan for Israelis was the promise of being able to live in a normal country. The idea of normality made all the compromises of peace seem worthwhile. Now, many no longer believe Israel can be a normal country...

...rein in Hezbollah. Syria's position has always been that it would ensure Israeli security in Lebanon only as part of a comprehensive peace plan that included Israeli withdrawal from the Golan Heights, captured from Syria in 1967. Negotiations to that end were begun by the late Yitzhak Rabin, more tentatively pursued through back channels by Benjamin Netanyahu and taken almost to the point of conclusion by Ehud Barak. But Sharon made clear in an interview published over the weekend that he believes Israeli withdrawal from the Golan is unacceptable under any circumstances, and that he won't consider...
