Paying Off Trouble Makers in Washington
The federal government pays trouble makers to leave town as a short term remedy. March on Washington followers and the Trail of Broken Treaties protesters received funds to depart, with a mid 20th century tone noting the practice and its dubious value.

Middle East unrest moves toward a new phase and talks stall
The piece argues that Middle East hostilities are entering a new phase with heavy Syrian Israeli fire and limited Soviet pressure.

The analysis links shifting attitudes in Washington and capitals to a potential shift in leverage toward negotiations over coercion.
