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

    Jerusalem Post quoted officials in Washington as saying
    that Deputy U.S. National Security Advisor Steve Hadley
    will travel to Israel on Sunday for a day of meetings
    with Israeli and Palestinian officials.  The newspaper
    says that Elliott Abrams, Special Assistant to the
    President and Senior Director of the National Security
    Council for Near East and North African Affairs, will
    accompany Hadley on the Israel leg of the trip, which
    will also include stops in Brussels and Bahrain.  This
    morning, Jerusalem Post's web site cited a White House
    official as saying that the White House late Tuesday
    scrapped plans for Hadley's visit to Israel and the
    Palestinian areas, because of scheduling conflicts.
    The newspaper also quoted a U.S. official in Washington
    as saying that former U.S. ambassador to Kuwait Richard
    Jones is among people being considered for the job of
    next ambassador to Israel.

    Maariv revealed that in secret contacts between Israel
    and Syria one year ago, Syrian President Bashar Assad
    had agreed to come to Jerusalem and speak to the
    Knesset, setting no preconditions, but that PM Sharon
    ignored his offer.  Ha'aretz, Maariv and Israel Radio
    reported that Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak's
    spokesman Majed Abed Fatah took back a statement he had
    made about Syria giving up commitments made by the late
    PM Yitzhak Rabin.  The spokesman said that the matter
    was not raised during Mubarak's meeting with Assad in
    Sharm el-Sheikh Tuesday.  Ha'aretz and Yediot also
    reported that Walid Mualem, aide to the Syrian FM,
    denied Abed Fatah's earlier statement.  Leading media
    quoted UN Middle East envoy Terje Roed-Larsen as saying
    in a rare appearance before the Knesset's Foreign
    Affairs and Defense Committee Tuesday that Israel
    should immediately call Assad's "bluff."  Yediot
    reported that PLO Chairman Mahmoud Abbas (Abu Mazen) is
    expected to tell Assad at their upcoming meeting in
    Damascus that the Palestinians could curb terrorist
    attacks in Israel, were it not for the activity
    originating from Damascus.

    Leading media reported that Shinui is expected to vote
    against the 2005 budget and leave the government today.
    The media cited an announcement by the Shas party that
    it is prepared to support the budget in exchange for a
    change in the order of priorities in it.  Most
    commentators believe that the coalition will not garner
    a Knesset majority for the budget today.  Yediot writes
    that Sharon will contact Labor Party Chairman Shimon
    Peres today in order to bring Labor into the
    government, in which Labor is not expected to receive
    key portfolios.  Yediot cited hopes in the Likud that
    Sharon could form a broad-based coalition with Shas and
    United Torah Judaism, which would count 70 Knesset
    members.
    All media reported that former PM Ehud Barak "stole the
    microphone and the show" (in Jerusalem Post's words) at
    the Labor Party's Central Committee meeting in Tel Aviv
    last night.  Speaking on Israel Radio this morning,
    Peres was very critical of Barak.  The media reported
    that the Labor Party's Central Committee postponed
    until December 12 a scheduled date for the party's
    leadership primary, thereby giving time for the current
    leadership to try to negotiate Labor's entry into the
    government.  The postponement was a defeat for Barak,
    who has been pushing, along with eight Labor Knesset
    members, to advance the primary to April 12.

    Ha'aretz and other media reported that Israel has
    accepted Egypt's offer to beef up its forces on the
    border between Sinai and the Gaza Strip, deploying 750
    troops in the area, and to train Palestinian officers.
    The media say that Israel will advise Egyptian FM Ahmed
    Abu el-Gheit and intelligence chief Omar Suleiman, who
    are due in Jerusalem today, of its decision.  Jerusalem
    Post says that the talks will focus on the issue of
    arms smuggling to the Gaza Strip.  Ha'aretz reported
    that Sharon told a delegation of American senators
    Tuesday that he would discuss with the Egyptian
    ministers "how Egypt is enlisting to reinstate
    stability in Gaza and to promote Israel's security
    coordination with the Palestinians."

    Israel Radio reported that the U.S. Administration
    intends to transfer USD 20 million to the PA to cover
    the Authority's debts to Israeli companies.

    Jerusalem Post quoted Palestinian FM Nabil Shaath as
    saying Tuesday in The Hague that Israel must reopen the
    voter registration offices it closed in East Jerusalem
    several months ago to ensure a free PA election.  The
    newspaper quoted him as characterizing his meeting with
    FM Silvan Shalom as positive, adding that he and his
    Israeli counterpart stuck with general statements and
    did not go into specific details.

    All media reported that Tuesday, overturning a previous
    ruling, the High Court of Justice found Shimon Sheves,
    former D-G of the Prime Minister's Office under Rabin,
    guilty of fraud and breach of trust.  Sheves had been
    associated with American consultants James Carville
    Carville, Bob Shrum and Stan Greenberg, who worked for
    U.S. president Bill Clinton and vice-president Al Gore.
    Sheves was also a consultant for Romania's Social
    Democratic Party (PSD).

    Ha'aretz reported that PA geographers working in the
    Palestinian Planning Ministry and Negotiation Support
    Unit have concluded that the map of alternate roads and
    passages for Palestinians only, which Israel has asked
    the donor countries to the Palestinians to finance,
    shows that Israel intends to strengthen its hold on
    most of the West Bank and leave the settlements intact.

    Ha'aretz reported that Tuesday a Palestinian man
    photographed playing his violin at the Beit Iba
    checkpoint near Nablus in the West Bank earlier this
    month rejected claims by the IDF that he played of his
    own accord.

    Jerusalem Post and other media reported that the Judea
    [southern West Bank] Military Court sentenced Abdullah
    Barghouti, a senior Hamas member and master bomb maker
    dubbed "the mechanic," to 67 consecutive life sentences
    for preparing the bombs used in a string of suicide
    bombings in 2001 and 2002.

    Jerusalem Post quoted visiting Estonian PM Juhan Parts
    as saying that the EU should behave "more reasonably"
    in regards to UN resolutions on Israel.

    Maariv lengthily interviewed Michael (Mike) Scheuer,
    who was the "head of the bin Laden unit in the CIA."
    Scheuer warns that support for Israel endangers
    America's security, and says that Israelis forget that
    the U.S. has a long history of abandoning allies when
    the price of those connections becomes too heavy.

    Yediot reported that following heavy pressure by senior
    U.S. officials, Sharon recently appointed a team, to be
    headed by Prime Minister's Office D-G Ilan Cohen, that
    will check whether Israeli tenders and standards laws
    cab be modified so that American companies can compete
    in tenders and projects.  The newspaper says the U.S.
    is "very worried" by the continuing negative trade
    deficit with Israel: in 2003, Israeli exports to the
    U.S. amounted to USD 14 billion, while Israeli imports
    from the U.S. amounted to USD 6.5 billion -- a USD 7.5-
    billion gap.  Yediot quoted Ambassador Dan Kurtzer as
    saying: "We are funding Israel's trade with Europe and
    we really dislike this.  You are selling to the U.S.,
    but buying in Europe.  Israel needs to create fairer
    rules of the game vis-a-vis American firms."

    Ha'aretz quoted Rep. Bob Beauprez (R-CO) as saying in
    Jerusalem Tuesday that America's Orthodox Jewish
    community has begun a long-term "love affair" with the
    Republican Party.
    Ha'aretz and Jerusalem Post reported that Homeland
    Security Secretary Tom Ridge has presented his
    resignation to President Bush.
    Jerusalem Post printed the full eulogy by Secretary
    Powell of the former U.S. diplomat Joseph Sisco.

    A Yediot/Mina Zemach (Dahaf Institute) poll found that:
    -65 percent of Israelis favor a new government; 33
    percent favor a Likud-Shinui-Labor coalition; 17
    percent favor a Labor-supported minority government; 15
    percent favor a government composed of Likud, Labor and
    the ultra-Orthodox parties; 27 percent prefer early
    elections; 8 percent are undecided.
    -If elections were held today, Israelis would vote for:
    Likud: 42 Knesset seats (40 in the current Knesset);
    Labor Party: 23 seats (22); Shinui: 10 seats (15);
    Shas: 9 seats (11); National Union: 9 seats (7); Arab
    parties: 8 seats (8); Yahad: 5 seats (6); United Torah
    Judaism: 5 seats (5); and the National Religious Party:
    4 seats (6).

    Palestinian affairs correspondent and far-left

    mutilating the two-state solution."

    Nationalist writer Emuna Elon commented in mass-

    and the Geneva Accord to their natural place."

    Columnist Shaul Schiff wrote in nationalist, Orthodox

    basis for his disengagement plan."

    ¶I.  "A Surprising Decision by the PA Cabinet"

    Palestinian affairs correspondent and far-left
    Palestinian sympathizer Amira Hass opined in
    independent, left-leaning Ha'aretz (December 1):
    "Despite the short-term logic in accepting the [Israel-
    engineered] passages plan -- it would enable relatively
    free Palestinian movement in the West Bank after years
    of destructive internal closure -- the [Palestinian]
    cabinet decided to reject it completely.  In this way,
    it signaled to the donor countries not to agree to
    finance the passages nor any other road without the
    approval of a special Palestinian inter-ministerial
    committee.  That is, the cabinet did not only protest
    verbally, but also adopted a practical measure.  This
    is surprising because since 1994, the PA has acted as
    if it is incapable of doing a thing to counter the
    Israeli policy of creating Palestinian enclaves in the
    West Bank and the Gaza Strip.... The Palestinian
    Authority, under the leadership of Yasser Arafat, acted
    as if it were a matter of force majeure, a
    deterministic process that no diplomatic or popular
    struggle could counter.... The question is how the
    decision of the Palestinian cabinet, which even
    obligates the U.S. Agency for International Development
    (USAID), might serve as leverage for a popular struggle
    -- Palestinian, Israeli and international -- against
    the Israeli policy of carving the Palestinian territory
    into enclaves and mutilating the two-state solution."

    II.  "Who's Afraid of Moving Up the Elections?"

    Nationalist writer Emuna Elon commented in mass-
    circulation, pluralist Yediot Aharonot (December 1):
    "Those greedy for 'disengagement' try to disparage the
    Right for wanting to move up the elections, which would
    delay the evacuation of settlements by at least six
    months.  So what?  Why does the Left oppose moving up
    the elections, if not in order to accelerate the
    uprooting?  Yes, the Right wants elections because it
    wants to stop the pullout, to save the settlements, and
    to prevent a catastrophe.  The Right wants elections
    because it wants to return Yossi Beilin and the Geneva
    Accord to their natural place, to take away from the
    Labor Party the mandates Likud -- and not Labor -- won,
    and to let the Israeli people decided -- not in public
    opinion polls but in elections -- for or against a move
    which is one of the most crucial of those ever planned
    by an Israeli government.... Will Sharon please go to
    the people with his disengagement and let's see what
    happens."

    III.  "What Has Abu Mazen Promised Barghouti?"

    Columnist Shaul Schiff wrote in nationalist, Orthodox
    Hatzofe (December 1): "Abu Mazen, the West's darling,
    explains in all his private meetings that in order to
    obtain quiet in the Palestinian street, he need
    [Marwan] Barghouti's release.  There no doubt is
    someone on the Israeli side who has promised it.... The
    shrewd Abu Mazen intends to knock down to the ground
    all of Ariel Sharon's dreams, which are the basis for
    his disengagement plan.  Guided by Hosni Mubarak, Abu
    Mazen has already told the outgoing U.S. Secretary of
    State and senior European representatives that he is
    unhappy about the idea of an interim agreement. Backed
    by Mubarak, Abu Mazen strives to achieve a permanent-
    status agreement -- immediately after the elections for
    PA chairmanship.  Any permanent-status move serves the
    interests of the PA; since the entire leadership of the
    West is asking for the '67 borders with slight
    amendments, at the United States' behest, a harsh
    confrontation is expected between Ariel Sharon and
    those Western leaders.  It will be interesting to see
    how [Sharon] will steer the course between his
    deceptive visions and the pressure that will be applied
    on him."

    ¶2.  Iran Nuclear Program:
    -------------------------

                           Summary:
                           --------

    Senior Middle East affairs analyst Zvi Bar'el wrote in
    independent, left-leaning Ha'aretz: "Iran is not the
    isolated country the U.S. wanted it to be when it
    imposed sanctions on it.... It is a regime that is not
    happy with the existence of Israel and would like to
    see it disappear, but not at the price of its own
    disappearance."

    Conservative, independent Jerusalem Post editorialized:
    "Through its nuclear program, Iran's mullocracy has
    managed to almost completely divert attention from its
    aggression and repression, the two attributes that were
    supposed to have made it an endangered species in the
    post-9/11 world."

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

    ¶I.  "The Charm of the Iranian Threat"

    Senior Middle East affairs analyst Zvi Bar'el wrote in
    independent, left-leaning Ha'aretz (December 1): "Iran
    is not Iraq of 2003. It is a state where most of the
    population is not happy with its economic
    circumstances, but not necessarily opposed to the
    governmental regime. Reformists are no less
    nationalistic than the conservatives.... And can anyone
    say which country is crazier: Iran or Pakistan, which
    has nuclear weapons, India, which threatens Pakistan
    with the use of its nuclear weapons -- and is now
    conducting talks with it -- or maybe North Korea, with
    whom the United States is ready to negotiate?  It is
    also possible to ask, before Israel or the U.S. uses
    the ultimate weapon against Iran, why it is impossible
    [for instance] to pressure China to cancel its USD 100-
    billion gas deal with Iran?.... Even more interesting
    is that Iran has not minded for years doing business
    with friends of Israel.  It even is begging for the
    renewal of diplomatic relations with Egypt, relations
    that Iran cut off in the wake of the Camp David
    accords.  Iran is not the isolated country the U.S.
    wanted it to be when it imposed sanctions on it.  It
    enjoys close ties with most of the countries of the
    world, and the ayatollahs' regime is not made up of
    suicide bombers.  It is a regime that is not happy with
    the existence of Israel and would like to see it
    disappear, but not at the price of its own
    disappearance."

    II.  "Safe For Mullocracy"

    Conservative, independent Jerusalem Post editorialized
    (December 1): "What, after all, is the purpose of
    nuclear weapons for a regime like Iran?  Some seem to
    assume Iran is a rational actor and therefore rule out
    various doomsday scenarios, such as it attacking Israel
    or providing terrorists with a nuclear weapon.  We see
    no reason to make such assumptions.  Yet even if those
    scenarios are taken off the table, Iran is already
    accomplishing two other critical objectives: providing
    an umbrella for its support of terrorism and for its
    own repressive regime.  The Associated Press reported
    this week that 300 men gathered openly in Teheran, in
    the presence of a government official, to sign up to
    become suicide bombers, either against Israelis or
    Americans..... Iran is the world's most open and
    enthusiastic state sponsor of terrorism.  Its regime,
    much like that of the Brezhnev-era Soviet Union, is
    aggressive, hated at home and ideologically bankrupt.
    Yet, through its nuclear program, Iran's mullocracy has
    managed to almost completely divert attention from its
    aggression and repression, the two attributes that were
    supposed to have made it an endangered species in the
    post-9/11 world..... Any deal that makes the world
    safer for Iran's mullahs makes it a lot less safe for
    the rest of us."
