...olam Hazeh, and Knesset Member Arie Eliav, 53, former secretary-general of the Labor Party, who resigned his membership last month protesting that Rabin's Labor-dominated coalition government was "bereft of all vision." Avneri, who has long pursued a private dialogue with Arab intellectuals, believes that Israel ought to recognize the Palestine Liberation Organization before Washington does, which would foreclose Israeli options. He believes that Israel should withdraw to its 1949 borders, recognize a Palestinian state on the West Bank, and sign a peace treaty in return for Arab recognition of Israeli sovereignty. Avneri faults Rabin for being...
Comrade Messiah? As it was, the only negative sentiment was voiced by former Party Secretary-General Arieh Eliav. "This program is brought before us with the lashing of the whip of time and the scourge of haste and panic!" he shouted. "There are many in this land whose souls weep in silence because of this document.

...Eliav argues that of Zionism's three principal goals, only one has been attained-the establishment of a Jewish state in Palestine. The other two, providing a refuge for all Jews who want or need one and creating a model society based on the Jewish heritage, have not been completely fulfilled. "Our achievements are many," he says, "but so too are our failures. There is a long way to go. The real danger, as I see it, is that the conflict with the Arabs may take us farther away from building the kind of Jewish society that we Zionists...
