conim mity will be relatively unit-
ed in supporting Mr. Netanyahu
and the agreement he signed.
At least for now, dissenters on
the right will isolate themselves
further every time they raise
their voices.
On the left, the problem is dif-
ferent, but no less tricky.
Groups that support the peace
process now have to deal with the
fact that Mr. Netanyahu has, to
an appreciable degree, made the
Oslo agreement his own. To re-
main true to their ideals, they
have to support a man whose
long-term motives they suspect.
So in recent days, we witnessed
the spectacle of groups such as
Americans for Peace Now push-
ing other Jewish organizations to
support Mr. Netanyahu — a man
they once vilified as the exemplar
of a dangerous nationalism.
"The problem for us
is to keep the focus
on his actions, not
his motives."

At the same time, many lead-
ers of these groups worry that
Mr. Netanyahu accepted Hebron
because he had no choice,
but that he will be much less
forthcoming when issues like
Jerusalem and the ultimate dis-
position of Jewish settlements
are on the table.
In a way, their fears are par-
allel to the hopes of the right,
who are keeping their fingers
crossed that Mr. Netanyahu re-
ally doesn't mean it.
The American side-letter to
Hebron made this easier for Mr.
Netanyahu, the doves worry, by
confirming that Israel has huge
latitude in deciding the scope of
the additional West Bank rede-
ployments mandated by the
agreement. Mr. Netanyahu thus
has vast potential for gumming
up the works, if that's the course
he chooses.
Hence the dilemma for the
Jewish left: finding a practical
balance between their desire to
praise every sign that Mr. Ne-
tanyahu is complying with the
agreements of his predecessors,
however reluctantly, and their
deep suspicion that the prime
minister's real goal is unchanged
finding a way to slow down the
peace process below its stall
speed.
"There's a sense that it's
important to encourage Ne-
tanyahu's embrace of the peace
Process," said an official with one
left-leaning group, "but also a
fear that he's leading us down
the garden path. The problem
for us is to keep the focus on his
actions, not his motives or his
long-term strategies."
