Am.
London (JTA) — Former Is-
raeli Prime Minister Menachem
Begin, who has been living as a
recluse since his abrupt retire-
ment two years ago, is believed
to be suffering from an incura-
ble and progressive brain ill-
ness, known as Alzheimer's dis-
ease.
The condition, named after
the 19th Century German
physician who first identified it,
usually occurrs in middle age
and has no known treatment.
The suggestion that Begin is
suffering from it, current among
responsible medical circles, pro-
vides the first credible explana-
tion of why Israel's charismatic
leader, who revelled in politics,
suddenly and irrevocably with-
drew from the world at the age
of 70.
Until now his family and his
closest medical and political ad-
visers have kept the precise na-
ture of his condition a secret,
fostering speculation that he re-
tired in a mixture of despair
over the costly Israeli interven-
tion in Lebanon and the death
of his beloved wife Aliza in
1982.
