fter decades of hoping
that Jordan's King
Hussein was the key
to resolving the Middle East
mess, "many Israelis suspect
Hussein will never come to
anyone's negotiating table,'
reports the Washington Post.
In an analytical piece,
Glenn Frankel of the Post's
Jerusalem bureau states that
a sizable number of Israelis
believe that Hussein's "real
interest is in simply keeping
the game going and his an-
tagonists guessing because
that is the best way to ensure
his own survival?'
The Palestinian uprising
has brought the "troubled,
bittersweet romance" be-
tween Hussein and Israel to

King Hussein:
Dancing on the horizon.

new turning point," writes
Frankel. Palestinians have
been rebelling not only
against Israel's rule of their
land, but also against Israel's
"long-held notion that these
territories, or at least their
recalcitrant population, could
somehow be entrusted to the
care of the king."
Said Palestinian newspaper
editor Hanna Siniora, "If
there is one message this
uprising has made clear, it is
that we do not want to parlay
an occupation by Israel into
domination by Jordan."
Frankel mentions a 1986
public opinion poll that
showed that Hussein com-
manded little or no support in
the West Bank, "especially
among younger Palestinians
who grew up under Israeli oc-
cupation and have no mem-
ory of Jordanian rule and no
sense of loyalty to a monarch
they have never seen."
Yet, says Frankel, to Israelis
"desperate for some kind of
workable political solution,
the king dances on the

eastern horizon like a desert
mirage."
"He is such a handsome
and romantic person!" said
Michael Sela, an Israeli jour-
nalist who has long covered
the West Bank. "We have to
find someone we can trust,
and we want very much to
trust him."

Israel Against
Accord, Says Awad
Elsewhere in the Washing-
ton Post, Palestinian
American Mubarak Awad
states he was recently ex-
pelled from Israel not because
he advocated "resistance
through nonviolent means"
nor because he "allegedly
played a key role in the seven-
month-old Palestinian upris-
ing."
Rather, Awad claims on the
Post's op-ed page, he was
ousted because he believes in
"peaceful co-existence" of
side-by-side Israeli and
Palestinian states.
"Israel," he states, "finds
me a threat because it is
afraid to give peace a chance!'
Awad asserts that the treat-
ment he received from Israel
indicates that "Israelis talk
about peace, but the only
peace they want is the one
that they dictate, . . . one that
will deny the Palestinians
their right to self-determina-
tion."
Palestinians savor, writes
Awad, the short-lived "taste
of victory and the feeling of
liberation" every time a
Palestinian flag is raised over
a street, neighborhood or
town devoid of Israeli soldiers.
The uprising has given the
Palestinians " a victory not so
much over the Israelis, but
. . . over fear. That is why
Israel's policy of killing,
beating and imprisoning
Palestinians has had no effect
except to strengthen their
determination to continue the
uprising."

Aloha Oy: Bagels
Make Hit On Maui

Bagels may be a traditional
Jewish nosh, so a few
eyebrows were raised — and a
few appetites whetted — to
learn in the New York Times
that the first bagel bakery
recently opened on the
Hawaiian island of Maui.
Open only since last fall,
Maui Bagel has already be-
come something of a tourist
attraction. "I heard about
your bagels in the Cincinnati
airport," said a recent visitor
who made Maui Bagel his
