...Arab headgear and Western jacket and tie, Bishara Sirhan received a TIME correspondent and observed that Sirhan had been the best-behaved of his children. "I don't know," he said, "how this happened and I don't know who pushed him to do this." Would he now go to the U.S.? He thought not. "I raised him to love. I tell you frankly: now I am against...
...espoused by Maoists and Minutemen alike, routinely threatened-if not actually practiced-by students, racial militants and antiwar dissenters.
