ARABS CONFLICTED -

LEBANESE ARABS IN ISRAEL - *About 6,000 South Lebanese, mostly SLA fighters and their families, went to Israel after the withdrawal. Of those, some left for other countries such as Germany and Australia, and some returned to Lebanon.

Those who remain in Israel, about 700 families, are following the current conflict unfolding between Israel and Hizbullah with fear and anticipation.*

ARABS AS TARGETS - Haifa is renowned for the harmonious relations between its Jewish and Arab citizens. Here Arabs... work and live together with Jews as equals, a unique model of Arab-Jewish coexistence in a land riven by religious discord.

But such a social blending has meant that, in the latest conflict, the city's Arabs have found themselves as much in the line of fire of Hezbollah missiles as their Jewish neighbours.

DISPUTED COMMISSION - Lebanese Druse MP Walid Jumblatt on Nasrullah: "He is mistaken when he says that he is relying on the cabinet statement, because no one commissioned him to fight in order to restore the Shebaa Farms and the prisoners."
