    Key stories in the media:
    -------------------------

    Israel Radio, followed by the other electronic media,
    reported that at around 5:30 this morning, Hamas leader
    Sheikh Ahmed Yassin, one of his sons, and some of his
    bodyguards and associates, were killed in an IAF
    helicopter missile hit.  The radio reported that PM
    Sharon personally commanded the action.  The station
    reported on a number of subsequent incidents in Israel,
    East Jerusalem and the territories.  Israel Radio cited
    a gamut of responses to the action in the political
    arena, ranging from satisfaction on the Right to
    reservations, even condemnations on the Left.  The
    station quoted Defense Minister Shaul Mofaz as saying
    that Yassin had been "the Palestinian bin Laden."
    Israeli Arab MK Ahmed Tibi said on Israel Radio that
    Yassin was more moderate than the Hamas leaders
    destined to succeed him.  Some senior Labor Party
    members, such as Ephraim Sneh, expressed their
    satisfaction over the deed.  Like many commentators,
    some Shinui ministers expressed their concern that
    Yassin's assassination will start a new wave of
    terrorism.  Israel Radio and IDF Radio reported that
    the U.S. State Department is urging all sides to
    exercise restraint.

    Yediot quoted PM Sharon as saying Sunday at his meeting
    with the Likud cabinet ministers that he will bring his
    disengagement plan for cabinet approval immediately
    after his meeting with President Bush.  All media
    (banners in Ha'aretz and Jerusalem Post) reported that
    at the meeting Finance Minister Binyamin Netanyahu set
    terms for backing Sharon's disengagement plan: all of
    the points of entry to the Gaza Strip must remain in
    Israeli hands; there must be a public and detailed U.S.
    rejection of the Palestinian demand for the right of
    refugees to return to Israel; and, the necessity to
    complete the security fence before withdrawal from Gaza
    begins, including building the fence around the Ariel,
    Gush Etzion and Ma'aleh Adumim settlement blocs, as
    well as around Route 443 from Modi'in to Jerusalem.
    (Leading media note that the U.S. has objected to the
    route of the fence dipping deep into the West Bank.)
    Leading media cited the disappointment of cabinet
    ministers on the Right about Netanyahu's view.  Maariv
    quoted Defense Minister Shaul Mofaz as saying at the
    meeting that the evacuation from Gaza would increase
    terrorism originating in the West Bank.  Yediot
    reported that Sharon decided to give up holding a
    referendum on the disengagement plan when he realized
    that legislative action was needed for such a move.
    Sunday, Yediot quoted Jordanian King Abdullah II of
    Jordan as saying that Sharon promised him Jordan would
    not be harmed by the disengagement.

    Leading media reported that seven Palestinians,
    including a woman, were killed in an IDF operation
    Sunday.  Ha'aretz and other media reported that more
    than 30 Palestinians and Israeli demonstrators were
    injured Sunday in clashes with security forces during a
    protest against the separation fence near the village
    of Harbata, north of Modi'in.  During the weekend, all
    media reported that Fatah's Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigades
    claimed responsibility for the shooting of 20-year-old
    "settler" George Khoury, a Christian Arab, in
    Jerusalem's French Hill neighborhood.  The Brigades
    later apologized for their "mistake."  The PA also
    offered its apologies -- its Chairman Yasser Arafat did
    so in a personal call to Khoury's family.

    Sunday, Yediot led with a warning by the GOI's anti-
    terror control center that Israelis should not travel
    to Sinai, Istanbul, and selected destinations in the
    Arab and third worlds during the Passover (early April)
    holidays.

    Jerusalem Post reported that Sunday Hamas welcomed the
    PA High Court's decision to unfreeze the bank accounts
    of nine charities suspected of funding terrorist groups
    in the Gaza Strip.

    Leading media reported that five no-confidence motions
    will be brought to Knesset voting today.

    Sunday, Yediot reported that the sanctions President
    Bush will take next week, under the Syrian
    Accountability Act, are: a ban of flights to the U.S.
    by Syrian airliners; a ban on oil-related investments
    in Syria; and, a restriction of Syrian-bound exports to
    food and medicines only.  Sunday, Jerusalem Post
    reported that Saturday Secretary of State Colin Powell
    reiterated calls made one day earlier by the State
    Department for an end to the Syrian occupation of
    Lebanon, so that Lebanon can enjoy "full sovereignty."

    Sunday, Ha'aretz reported that the GOI was advised that
    an announcement will be made during Egyptian President
    Hosni Mubarak's visit to Washington in mid-April that
    the U.S. intends to grant Egypt special aid and loan
    guarantees.  Egypt will receive a USD 300-million
    special aid grant plus USD 2 billion in loan guarantees
    for 18 months.  Cairo will be able to raise the funds
    in three payments on the American stock market.
    Ha'aretz quoted central region prosecutor Avraham
    Pachter as saying that the U.S. and Israeli
    intelligence services prevented a 1997 indictment of
    Eli Cohen, who, together with Avihai Weinstein, is
    currently under investigation (Maariv's lead story
    Sunday) on suspicion of selling arms to Iran, for
    selling armored personnel carrier motors and other
    equipment to Iran.

    Yediot and Jerusalem Post reported that the IDF is
    holding in Tel Aviv a first-of-its-kind international
    congress on low-intensity warfare, at which Israel is
    presenting warfare methods it is using in the
    territories.

    Sunday, Yediot reported that a U.S. court has indicted
    Leib Cohen, 70, from Brooklyn, on charges of illegally
    exporting weapons to Israel, including electronic
    equipment for Phantom aircraft and missile guidance
    systems.

    Leading media noted that the two leading runners in the
    presidential elections in El Salvador, which are taking
    place today, are of Palestinian origin.

                           Summary:
                           --------

    Liberal op-ed writer Ofer Shelach commented on Ynet, a
    website affiliated to mass-circulation, pluralist
    Yediot Aharonot: "Ahmed Yassin died because he who
    lives by the sword shall die by the sword.  In his
    death, he bequeathed us nothing but more death."

    "Illogical Assassination"

    Liberal op-ed writer Ofer Shelach commented on Ynet, a
    website affiliated to mass-circulation, pluralist
    Yediot Aharonot (March 22): "Every Israeli, and
    presumably every Palestinian, knew that Israel would
    eventually assassinate Sheikh Yassin, and not only
    because once it tried to half-heartedly.   The accursed
    cycle of terror and revenge, action and retaliation,
    had to play itself out.  And since Yasser Arafat has
    already been expelled orally countless times, but
    Israel did not dare to carry it out, only the Hamas
    leader remained.  After so many threats, after so many
    provocations, it was bound to happen.   It was bound to
    happen because both sides to this conflict have long
    since ceased to calculate cause and effect, benefit and
    damage....  Yassin indeed 'oversaw' terror, as the
    current IDF newspeak describes it.  He gave
    instructions to try to increase or reduce activity at
    certain times.  But the great contractors of terror did
    not receive missions and targets from him, and do not
    need him to act.... None of their capability to
    dispatch murderers has been impaired.  This is known by
    every Israeli, including the IDF commanders and the
    political echelon that authorized this operation.  But
    the Israeli-Palestinian conflict has long since ceased
    to be about leadership and logic, control and
    decisions, cause and effect.  This conflict is
    currently a tribal war, ruled by feelings of vengeance
    and inability to tolerate killing without reacting.
    Ahmed Yassin died because he who lives by the sword
    shall die by the sword.  In his death, he bequeathed us
    nothing but more death."

    ------------

                           Summary:
                           --------

    Diplomatic correspondent Aluf Benn wrote on page one of
    independent, left-leaning Ha'aretz: "It is hard not to
    conclude that Israel has fought the Palestinians for
    three-and-a-half years in order to return to the exact
    point at which the Intifada broke out."

    Conservative, independent Jerusalem Post editorialized:
    "If anything, Sharon's plan is a reversion to a
    bastardization of Washington's historic land-for-peace
    concept -- land without peace."

    ¶I.  "Back to Clinton Plan"

    Diplomatic correspondent Aluf Benn wrote on page one of
    independent, left-leaning Ha'aretz (March 21):
    "Sharon's bureau chief, Dov Weisglass, told Bush's
    staff: '[America] has already agreed to the settlement
    blocs [to be retained by Israel].'  But the Israeli
    plan can also be seen in the negative: if Sharon wants
    American recognition for the annexation of 5 percent of
    the West Bank, he is implicitly conceding the other 95
    percent.  His office denies this, saying that this will
    merely constitute the starting point for future
    negotiations, during which Israel will demand
    additional parts of the West Bank. But why would the
    U.S. agree to that in the future?  It is hard not to
    conclude that Israel has fought the Palestinians for
    three-and-a-half years in order to return to the exact
    point at which the Intifada broke out.  How else does
    one explain that after all the terror attacks, deaths,
    recession, reoccupation of the West Bank, and Yasser
    Arafat's confinement, Israel is asking for a renewed
    American commitment to the Clinton plan?  From Sharon's
    perspective, American recognition of the settlement
    blocs is meant mainly to pacify the Likud ministers,
    who are demanding 'something in exchange for the
    withdrawal.'  Bush's support is also meant to show the
    plan's opponents in the Likud that the American
    president does not view it as 'rewarding terrorism' --
    a criticism that its local critics have frequently
    hurled at the unilateral pullback.  But Weisglass's
    main job during his trip to Washington this week will
    be to obtain assurances from the U.S. that Israel will
    not be expected to negotiate with the Palestinians
    until they change their leadership and halt terror.  In
    this way, Israel will effectively receive the 'long-
    term interim agreement' that Sharon has always wanted."

    II.  "Necessary Conditions"

    Conservative, independent Jerusalem Post editorialized
    (March 22): "The U.S. ... should not think of itself as
    an innocent bystander on whose lap a sticky plan has
    been dumped, but as a player whose many previous plans
    have come home to roost.  If anything, Sharon's plan is
    a reversion to a bastardization of Washington's
    historic land-for-peace concept -- land without peace.
    The U.S. cannot complain that Israel has not tried.  We
    tried Oslo, Camp David, Taba, and then we dutifully
    pretended, to this day, that the Palestinian Authority
    should be given endless chances to fight terrorism,
    rather than provide an umbrella for it.  It is in this
    context that the U.S. is being faced with the demands
    of Netanyahu's rebellious band of Likud ministers: that
    the U.S. explicitly reject the Palestinians demand of
    'return' to Israel, recognize Israel's right to
    permanently retain settlement blocs, and to temporarily
    control all Palestinians borders.... If anything, the
    Likud ministers should have made a fourth demand: that
    Washington fully blame the Palestinian Authority for
    its failure to combat terrorism, and force new
    elections and drastic reforms by depriving the PA of
    the international funding that keeps it afloat.
    Israel's demands all go to quarantining a terrorist
    regime, not preventing one from becoming further
    entrenched.  What is missing most from both
    Washington's and Jerusalem's thinking is how to
    transform the nascent terrorist state on the other side
    of the fence."

    ¶3.  Iraq: Anniversary of War's Outbreak:

                           Summary:
                           --------
    Conservative, independent Jerusalem Post editorialized:
    "The enemy ... was intent long ago on fighting the West
    in its entirety -- first by dividing it."

                         Block Quotes:
                         -------------

    "One Year On"

    Conservative, independent Jerusalem Post editorialized
    (March 21): "In toppling Saddam Hussein's regime, the
    U.S. sent the message that dictators cannot forever
    scorn the civilized world with impunity.  This is
    what's called 'demonstration effect,' and the world is
    better off for it.  The U.S. has also set in motion a
    mechanism aimed at delivering the Arab world's first-
    ever democracy.... Ironically, just as the invasion's
    anniversary came, Europe has itself been handed a 9/11-
    type of terrorist attack.  Depressingly, many Europeans
    lost no time blaming their victimization on America,
    mentioning Spain's dispatch of several hundred troops
    to Iraq.  Such critics would do well to recall that
    when America was attacked it had yet to invade Iraq and
    Afghanistan.  The enemy, in other words, was intent
    long ago on fighting the West in its entirety -- first
    by dividing it.  Here, then, is the challenge facing us
    all as we approach the next phase in the war on
    terrorism."
