Behind tedious struggle for legal advantage in presidential vote count in Florida is extraordinarily intense contest for public opinion; strategy of each camp is to portray other as trying to steal the election; news media are major battleground; aides to Vice Pres Al Gore are making major effort to convince network news anchors and editors of newsweeklies that outcome is still very much in doubt; Gore campaign's public-relations efforts underscore major objective of Democrats: to persuade public to be patient while several Florida counties conduct hand recounts; Bush campaign, by contast, seeks to make case that recounting ballots by hand is imprecise process, and that Democrats are engaged in political shenanigans to try to pick up votes in Democratic counties; photo (M)

Palestinian uprising today and intifada of 1987 have certain similarities and differences; both erupted out of bitter, pent-up frustration, but anger today is directed at Palestinian Authority as well as Israel and Oslo agreement; biggest difference between the two insurrections is that Palestinians now have guns and control chunks of territory; another difference is the emergence of independent Arab satellite television stations that offer dramatic coverage of clashes and discussions from a variety of political viewpoints; photo (M)
