	History of a hot potato, Haaretz
		As prime minister, Levi Eshkol is identified with many subjects, such as the strengthening of Israeli-American relations or the decision to have Zionist Revisionist leader Ze'ev Jabotinsky's coffin be transferred here for reburial - a decision that helped to thaw internal relations in the local political arena.
		Eshkol astutely chose this timetable: The U.S. presidential elections were to be held shortly thereafter, and the president would have to consider that "his failure to accept such an unusual request from Eshkol would be leaked to the press and would hurt his chances for support from the `Jewish vote.'"
		A memo Harriman sent to the administration indicates that he accepted most of Eshkol's demands, and his remarks led the administration to adopt a position whose significance should never be underestimated.

		So Eshkol spent the next thirty years looking for places in which new settlements could indeed be established, and, as head of the Jewish Agency's Land Settlement Department, he supervised the founding of nearly 400 new Jewish villages.
		The great drama and pain of Eshkol's last years, however (he died of a heart attack-a polite name, I think, for a broken heart-in 1969) was his rift with Ben-Gurion, whose absolutely loyal follower he had been for decades and at whose request he reluctantly took over as prime minister in 1963.
		Eshkol was not, to use the fashionable word, 'charismatic'.

		The Eshkol government, to avoid the international pressure that forced Israel to retreat in 1956, sent Foreign Minister Abba Eban to Europe and the United States to convince Western leaders to pressure Nasser into reversing his course.
		Thus, immediately following the war, Eshkol issued a statement that he was willing to negotiate "everything" for a full peace, which would include free passage through the Suez Canal and the Strait of Tiran and a solution to the refugee problem in the context of regional cooperation.
		Concurrently, on September 24, Eshkol's government announced plans for the resettlement of the Old City of Jerusalem, of the Etzion Bloc-- kibbutzim on the Bethlehem-Hebron road wiped out by Palestinians in the war of 1948--and for kibbutzim in the northern sector of the Golan Heights.
