...writing in regard to Professor James R. Russell's shameless assessment of the Matthew Shepard killing ("No Resurrection This Time," Opinion. Oct. 26). The abandon with which he shifts the blame from the killers to "the neo-conservative movement" and to "Christian Coalition types" is rather disturbing, as well as his mentioning the names of Irving Kristol, Richard John Neuhaus, Pat Buchanan and our own Harvey C. Mansfield '53 in connection with the gruesome murder...
...whole, Jewish observers regard Stein's canonization--like John Paul II's beatification last week of wartime Croatian Cardinal Alojzije Stepinac, who initially supported (but later denounced) his country's pro-Nazi puppet regime--as a small blemish on a sterling record. This is the Pope, after all, who established Vatican recognition of Israel, visited a synagogue and was host of a huge commemorative concert for the Shoah's victims.

And they put real doctors front and center in their ads--not just on television but in print and on billboards at the airport...
...Israelis regard Hassan in the same light as his brother--as a reliable, even warm ally. Like the King, however, he has been scathing at times in his criticisms of the current Israeli government's obstinacy toward the Palestinians. That has made Hassan well liked within Yasser Arafat's Palestinian Authority. Periodically, the prince has mediated between the two sides. Within Jordan, Hassan has been viewed with suspicion by the majority of the population made up of Palestinian refugees and their descendants. This distrust baffles and disturbs the prince, but it has lessened over time. Today there are key Palestinians...
