The PLO maintains its commitment to the peace process, as articulated in the "Three Proposals," which were published in the March 31 New York Times. The claim that Israel initiated only one war of the six it has fought is ridiculous.

The price of stock is an indication of company condition, not a primary cause...
...repressing opinions which one considers incorrect is totalitarian, and remains so whether practiced by governments or by groups of private individuals...
