November 18 is the 322nd day of the year (323rd in leap years), with 43 remaining. ... 1943 is a common year starting on Friday. ...

Les Luthiers Volumen 3 (1973) Les Luthiers is a comedy-musical group from Argentina, very popular also in several other Spanish speaking countries such as Spain, Colombia, Mexico, Chile and Uruguay. ...
Rabinovich acknowledges it looks like a reversion to Syria's old rejectionist position but he finds it is actually "an attempt, albeit clumsy, to prepare the groundwork for a settlement with Israel."
Rabinovich explains that where Shara seemed to be negative, he only "dug in his heels" as a bargaining position for future negotiations.
Rabinovich, along with many other Israeli leaders, is engaged in wishful thinking.
Rabinovich surmises that, after those elections, "Asad must have realized that he had badly miscalculated" and speculates that "Asad grasped fully" that he had missed a real opportunity to conclude a deal with Israel.
Rabinovich's account shows, for instance, that his side omitted any mention of the fact that Israel had won all its wars against Syria, as though to do so would be ill-mannered and tactless-even if it is the inescapable premise of the two states' negotiations.
Rabinovich is a sophisticated historian and diplomat; the Rabin-Peres governments he worked for had an ambitious vision of conflict resolution.
