If, because of his political situation, Peres failed to live up to one of his promises, they simply ignored it. The accord Shaath brokered, for example, calls for Israelis to withdraw forces from the West Bank town of Hebron, but that hasn't happened yet. "We normally would have screamed," Shaath says, "but we've generally kept quiet. We've been patient with Peres as he has had to satisfy the Israeli right wing. The question is whether that patience will...
