Since the last round of autonomy negotiations ended in the Tel Aviv suburb of Herzlia two weeks ago, Cairo's negotiators have grumbled about the timid conceptual approach adopted by the U.S. at the bargaining table. Despite his valiant efforts to find common ground between the two sides, U.S. Special Middle East Ambassador Sol Linowitz has been criticized in Cairo for failing to rise above an arbitrator's role and assume a more forceful position in the negotiations...

Police and the FBI have tried for years to track down the two dozen or so members of the band, but with no success. Then came two lucky breaks on April 4 in Evanston, a wealthy suburb of Chicago. That afternoon, two men wearing dark coats, sunglasses and fedoras stole a white van at gunpoint from the local office of Budget Rent-a-Car.
