Abstract
The Oslo accord has failed. Battered by a wave of fundamentalist terro rism, Israelis are ready to elect a hard-line Likud government, while many frustrated Palestinians are spurning the PLO in favor of the Isla mic extremists of Hamas. Locked in a political embrace, PLO Chairman Y asir Arafat and Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin are dragging each other down. The process may stagger on, but it will never yield peace .
