Focus on the nine boundaries in the Middle East of guards Israeli army tank crew. Only seemingly peace: still explode mines, nor a lost fight to enemy snipers.
Cemetery silence only in the Sinai desert, which is covered by the rubble of the Egyptian war machine.
Life stirs only timidly in the conquered towns, the war left indelible traces.
At the wailing wall in Jerusalem every day the same spectacle: believers pray in front of the highest sanctuary of the Jews and swear never again to release it.
5,500 Egyptian prisoners of war waiting for their release. 11,000 have returned already. It is not known how much the escape through the desert Sinai were killed. The wounded flying to Cairo the Red Cross.
Stop the mass exodus from the areas west of the Jordan River. 150,000 refugees were reported by Jordan of the United Nations. Their fate threatened a future peace in the Middle East as a heavy mortgage. The continuing Middle East crisis prompted Soviet Premier Kosygin information to a journey to the West. In Paris, he tried in vain to persuade de Gaulle to the Soviet position in the Middle East. De Gaulle refused to take a position on one side against Israel and warned the Soviet Union to encourage the Arab aggression through new arms sales.
The world press in vain endeavour to elicit details of the year's most interesting Paris visitors. Kosygin started his so far most massive attempt to win the Middle East war to the Arabs in New York. Before the UN General Assembly, Kosygin demanded the unconditional withdrawal of Israeli troops and a compensation of the damage suffered by Israel's enemies in the war. Remains uncertain, oh the United Nations can put out a fire that they indirectly spurring as they withdrew their troops from the region.
To the 14. Times was the anniversary of collapsed when the popular uprising in Central Germany using Soviet tank units. In West Berlin, political parties and associations had called for a special ceremony. 8,000 people gathered before the Schöneberg Town Hall, to reaffirm the right of the German State unity.
But 14 years after that the number of those who want to make the June 17 back to a normal work day is growing.
The most prominent guest of the German day at the World Expo in Montreal was Federal President Heinrich Lübke. His first visit was the German Pavilion. As German turned to the obvious satisfaction of the guest book printing press - Gutenberg's.
Heinrich Lübkes critical judgement about the Interior met with the views of Canadian professionals. However, still is among the most important architectural achievements of the World Exhibition Pavilion as Genzes. The sailing ship "Winston Churchill" had geflaggt top over all. It received a visitor who has earned a reputation as a passionate sailor on long sailing trips. Prince Philip was made known by the captain with the crew: 39 young girls between the ages of 16 and 21, who hired for a two-week cruise ship as sailors.
A height-gymnastics in the rigging sharpened the Royal connoisseurs look for the benefits of female sailors.

In the limelight once per year they flock together. They come from many countries of Europe; United in singing a nightly procession: the great clan of Gypsies.
On the edge of a meadow, in the shadow of the convent of Altenberg, descendants of an existing since 1407 clan proved to be citizens of the consumer society. But luxury Caravan and expensive limousines are able not to correct the bias of the Gypsies. Our question whether outsiders of society or not, was answered by the most with resignation: "Yes, I feel an outsider, because I'm a Gypsy, because the great mass of the population can feel it very strongly. It is a black man, as soon as the Gypsy shows up, it's just a Gypsy. To beat them to the door in your face. We are always considered black sheep."
The whites, so call the Gypsies all outsiders are based still on the cliché of a past Gypsy Romance: fiddle, dance and camp fire.
Under the auspices of the Catholic Church about the annual family gathering softens while many worries. But if the fixed end of the Gypsy life is not so funny. Trying to exist on the edge and go undetected is part of his everyday life.

Sport Kiel week 67 - her name has sound when the sailors of the domestic or foreign. The station in the Kiel fjord to the experts as one of the most beautiful and most demanding of the world.
On the race track, we watched star boats, Findingis and dragons. The beauty and elegance of Yachting conceals the hard work which is demanded from the passionate sailor.
1972 Kiel will host the Olympic sailing competitions. To the first rehearsal, 911 sailors from 12 countries on the race course went to check wind and ocean currents.
On their home range there was reason for the front seats - Germans hope for Olympic medals in 5 years.
A winter long they had filed and planed, mounted and tested. Then, they were the product of their hobbyist ambition to water to the championship race for motor boats on the Essen Baldeney Lake.
In front of 25,000 spectators, 19 riders of European top class demonstrated how to preserve farming in curves. The Außenbordmotore, designed for top performance, accelerated up to 95 kilometres per hour. A 22-year old geek Favorites stole the show. Jörg Steinwascher relied on his starting number 13.
In 3 out of 4 races, he had his boat tip forward. Even before the fourth victory was him not to take. He was a new world champion in the motor boat class B. Hamburg, June 20, 1967
