...area of the Gaza Strip patrolled by Dagan's troops, 10 Israelis have died in the past two weeks in terrorist shootings and bombings. In the same period, Dagan's troops have shot 10 Palestinians as they tried to break into Jewish settlements. Israel blames Arafat's top men, particularly Preventive Security chief Mohammed Dahlan. Dahlan's job is supposed to be suppressing Palestinian violence before it can threaten Arafat or Israel. In fact, Israelis charge, he is orchestrating the fighting. Last week one of Dahlan's men, still carrying his Israeli-issued ID card, crawled into the Kfar Darom...
Arafat seems at times to be trying to slow the fighting. Two weeks ago, he ordered his West Bank security chief Jibril Rajoub to stop the gunfire that had been peppering the Jerusalem suburb of Gilo. The quiet held until a Palestinian force led by one of Rajoub's rivals opened fire late Thursday. In response, Israeli guns lit up the night over Beit Jalla.

Much to the surprise of the audience and some of the group's nine members, Dirty, clutching a champagne bottle, performed two songs before addressing his faithful: "Y'all know they had the ODB locked down, right? Well, I'm here to tell you that they can't keep me down. Now I'm free, and I'm out there like a bird flying around, so y'all better leave some birdseed...
...least these difficulties were built into the scenario. What no one expected was that Yeoh would injure her knee and need a month's rehab in the U.S., or that the whole ordeal would be so damned exhausting. "We shot around the clock with two teams," says Lee, 46. "I didn't take one break in eight months, not even for half a day. I was miserable--I just didn't have the extra energy to be happy. Near the end, I could hardly breathe. I thought I was about to have a stroke...
