CLOCKWISE, FROM LEFT: 1. At a White House ceremony in early October, Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin and Palestinian leader Yassir Arafat

ceremonially sign an agreement extending Palestinian self-rule throughout the West Bank. 2. A month later, Mr. Rabin's body is carried to be laid to

rest, after he is cut down by Yigal Amir, a 26-year-old yeshiva student. 3. U.S. Park Police estimate 400,000 attend the Million Man March on Washington

in October. 4. Civil discord rages in Israel following the self-rule agreement, as hundreds of West Bank settlers are arrested following demonstrations.

5. After 22 years as the innovative and often controversial president of the Union of American Hebrew Congregations, Rabbi Alexander M. Schindler steps

down as leader of the Reform movement. 6. By a narrow margin, American-educated Binyamin "Bibi" Netanyahu becomes Israel's first popularly

elected prime minister on May. 7. Ten days of Hamas-inspired terror results in the loss of 59 lives and more than 300 wounded in five suicide attacks that

struck Israel between Feb. 25 and March 4.
