...Jerusalem. They chanted, ''Blessed be he who comes back without a conference.'' At least 100 Palestinians had died in the uprising by last week, but for the first time, an Israeli soldier was killed, shot in cold blood as he stood guard duty in Bethlehem. The army issued new shoot-to-kill orders against any Palestinian throwing Molotov cocktails. It also said in effect that Jewish settlers in the territories would be permitted to shoot rioters attacking them with gasoline bombs. There was prescience in Chaim Weizmann's declaration in 1949: ''I am certain that the world will judge...
