...Ungraciously sacked by the general in 1966, Giscard used his own small party to follow a policy of "Yes, but"-a policy that Pompidou once characterized as "between two chairs, and I hope they fall on their derrière."

Policing an agreement to regulate the number of warheads installed in missiles would not be feasible. Spy satellites can count launch vehicles, but not their contents.

The occupants, two Abu Saud sisters, declined offers of compensation and refused to move, asserting that the property was jointly owned with a Moslem religious foundation. Last week Israeli workmen moved them anyway, and bulldozed the house. The Israelis insist that the demolition had nothing to do with the fact that Arafat once lived there...
