...sabotage Chile's inroads into the U.S. market. It was the U.S. Government, pressuring Pinochet to turn over the military men accused of ordering the 1976 murder of ex-Ambassador to Washington Minister Orlando Letelier in Washington. It was the caller in Chile who identified himself as an Israeli ultra-nationalist protesting the U.S.-P.L.O. talks. For someone merely interested in having strawberries on his cornflakes, the three-continent skein of commerce and terrorism was growing absurd...
...phenomena, the rise of Jewish terrorism. Members of the Shin Bet, Israel's internal security service, arrested seven U.S. citizens and subsequently detained four of them on suspicion of complicity in the attack on the Palestinian laborers. The four detainees were later identified as active members of the ultra-nationalist Kach movement, led by Meir Kahane, founder of the U.S.-based Jewish Defense League.

The government has in effect been run by an uneasy coalition between the King, who became a national hero after the French made the mistake of exiling him in 1953. and the ultra-nationalist Istiqlal Party, which led the agitation for independence. Recognizing Istiqlal strength, Mohammed filled his Cabinet with Istiqlal men but chose as first Premier pro-Western Si M'Barek ben Mustapha el Bekkai, a man without a party. Fortnight ago, at 4:30 one morning, the King had to summon...
