[0:36] Israelis listened to their prime
[0:38] minister say, "People really want
[0:40] peace." The rally ended and the prime
[0:43] minister began to walk toward his car.
[0:45] He did not make it. A young Jewish law

[1:40] Israeli. This Sunday morning, we'll
[1:43] remember the life of this soldier,
[1:45] diplomat, and statesman.
[1:47] >> To everything, there is a season and a
[1:52] time. to every purpose under heaven.

[2:00] Middle East with Bob Simon in Jerusalem
[2:03] and Rita Braver in Washington and with
[2:06] Fouad Ajami here in New York. It will be
[2:09] hard to move on, but we will to the
[2:10] story of an opera singer for one thing
[2:12] who has brought the stirring music of
