Although the bombing was front-page news in almost every paper in the country, and al- though almost every paper car- ried a photo with its story, the Times' photo of an Israeli soldier looking down at the body of a woman killed in the assault — and still lying in the twisted, barely recognizable frame of the Dan No. 5 bus — conveyed with extraordinary immediacy the force of the blast that killed at least 22 and wounded 48. The Media Monitor Shock Award, which is being premiered in today's column, does not hon- or gratuitous pandering to base instincts. Rather, the value of the "shock," as eminently illustrat- ed by the Times' photo, is that it is informative and education- al — not cheap, sleazy or ma- nipulative. Kudos to the Times for having the guts to put such a gripping photo on its Oct. 20 front page. And a secondary slap on the jour- nalistic back to Agence France- Press, from which the Times got the photo, for having superb pho- tographers on its staff.

Shocking Times State City Yassir Arafat's attitude toward Hamas is mentioned in a forthcoming documentary on PBS. of llamas-sponsored bombings, •kidnappings and murders derailing the Mideast peace process, at least between Israelis and Palestinians. One of the most gloomy prognostications for how all this affects ordinary Israelis came in London's Fi- nancial Times from Professor Yona Alexander, a terrorism ex- pert based in Tel Aviv: "The worst terror is yet to come ... [llamas] has a long arm and could decide where and when to strike." Especially surprising was that so few op-eds appeared about the bus bombing. Maybe opinion- mongerers are tired of com- menting about Mideast terror. Amid such a dearth, the New York Times rose to the occasion and printed two about the inci- dent. Steven Emerson, executive producer of a forthcoming PBS documentary about Islamic terrorism, stated that Yassir Arafat "has learned that if he al- lows llamas to target only Is- raelis, it will leave him alone. In the long run, this strategy will only doom him, because Israel will be forced to reoccupy Gaza. And ultimately it will not be Mr. Arafat, but the Palestinian peo- ' ple who will suffer the most." And A.M. Rosenthal scolded the West for showing "a passivity" toward Hamas' terror. "The only explanation," he stated, "is that the West fears con-
