What sins have the members of the Fly Club committed to bring down upon themselves the righteous wrath of Ms. Schkolnick and Harvard Law School Professor Alan Dershowitz? The club has no affiliation with the University Ms. Schkolnick supports with her tuition. The activities of the members involve no lawbreaking and take place within the confines of the building. Even the supposed benefits which the club denies Ms. Schkolnick because of her gender hold no appeal for her. She admittingly brings her suit against the Fly Club without any care for what the Club specifically offers its members...

...Cabinet along party lines, for reasons that have as much to do with internal politics as international politics. King Hussein of Jordan is said to want the Soviet Union in attendance at such an "umbrella" conference. He reportedly thinks that he needs their presence to protect him from the wrath of less conciliatory moderate Arab leaders.
