...Jews who remain in Iraq today live under a reign of terror. All must carry special identity cards; none are permitted to hold passports. Their phones have been confiscated, their mail opened, their businesses seized, bank accounts frozen. Few still hold jobs, all are closely watched by secret police...
MEETING in secret session last week, the Israeli Cabinet came to a decision with far-reaching consequences for the issues of war and-above all-peace in the tense Middle East.

In his favorite posture, looking backward, Hoffman recalled his circular route from Los Angeles to New York in a series of interviews with TIME Reporter Carey Winfrey. Hoffman's father was a furniture designer, middle-class and Jewish. His mother was a movie fan and named him after Dustin Farnum, the silent-screen cowboy (his older brother is Ronald, for Colman).
