Meeting at Kibbutz Metzer on Monday, the site of an attack
in which a Palestinian gunman killed two Jewish children and
three adults the evening before, the Israeli Cabinet
authorized military action in Tulkarm and Nablus. Zimbabwe's small and aging Jewish community is finding it

princes. There was a time when Germany was home to dozens of
kings, princes, barons. You could not go far in any direction
