Florida agriculture loses $273M in December freeze

Florida agriculture loses at least $273M in December freeze; corn, bean prices skyrocketing

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) -- December's wave of unusually cold weather has destroyed much of Florida's green beans and sweet corn, which means shoppers will pay more at the grocery store and see more imports on the shelves. Florida is the nation's largest producer of green beans and sweet corn -- the kind of corn we eat, not the kind we put in our gas tanks. According to the Florida Department of Agriculture, the state lost $273 million from the December freezes alone -- including nearly 9,000 acres of crops. The statistics are compiled only through Dec. 20, which means they don't even account for the problems caused by this week's cold. 2010 dealt a one-two punch for the state's farms. An 11-day spell in January was one of the area's coldest periods on record, and December has had an unprecedented trio of cold fronts etc.. etc.. and the news story continues...

Global food prices hit record high

By Javier Blas, Commodities Editor January 5, 2011 6:30 a.m. EST

Food prices hit a record high last month, surpassing the levels seen during the 2007-08 crisis, the UN's Food and Agricultural Organization said on Wednesday. the news story continues and ends with these statements.. The rise of commodity prices makes it likely that the global food import bill will hit a record high in 2011, after topping $1,000bn last year for only the second time. In November, the FAO raised its 2010 forecast to $1,026bn, up almost 15 per cent from 2009 and within a whisker of a record high of $1,031bn set in 2008 during the food crisis. Agricultural commodities prices have surged following a series of crop failures caused by bad weather. The situation was aggravated when top producers such as Russia and Ukraine imposed export restrictions, prompting importers in the Middle East and North Africa to hoard supplies. The weakness of the US dollar, in which most food commodities are denominated, has also contributed to higher prices.

Why supermarket stocks are getting squeezed

Supermarket stocks stuck between rising food prices and customers unwilling to spend

David K. Randall, AP Business Writer, On Sunday January 16, 2011, 3:59 pm EST

NEW YORK (AP) -- Orange juice isn't the only thing at your supermarket that's been squeezed.  Rising food prices mean grocery store chains must absorb extra costs on items like meat, seafood, and produce, or they try to pass them along to customers. But many of those consumers are unemployed or have less money to spend, even on essentials. For now, the big chains are mostly choosing to absorb. As a result, profits are falling, and so are their stocks, making them one of the few dim lights in the market in 2011. etc.. and the news story continues...

Experts: Snow doesn't refute warming

by Renee Schoof - Jan. 30, 2011 12:00 AM / McClatchy Newspapers

WASHINGTON - Tree limbs snap, the power goes out, the car needs digging out again. Along with the grumbling about winter snow, there's also a common curiosity: So what does all this say about global warming? etc.. etc.. The latest report on climate change by federal scientists, Global Climate Change Impacts in the U.S., said precipitation has increased by an average of about 5 percent in the past 50 years. It projects that northern areas generally will become wetter, and southern areas, especially in the West, will become drier. Meanwhile, two current ocean and atmosphere patterns help explain winter cold and snow. The climate phenomenon La Niña is linked to a cooling in sea-surface temperatures in the equatorial Pacific. Its opposite is El Niño, the warming of those waters. La Niña is mainly responsible for this year's weather patterns, said Ignatius Rigor, an atmospheric scientist at the Polar Science Center at the University of Washington. La Niña was expected to bring more snow to the Pacific Northwest, much of the Upper Midwest and New England. "Even in a warming world, we will still have natural oscillations like day and night, winter and summer, and in this case El Niño and La Niña," Rigor said. Another possible reason for colder winters and more snow is linked to the loss of Arctic sea ice and the effect that change has on the winds that circle the North Pole. In 2010, the extent of sea ice cover in the Arctic at its lowest point in September was 31 percent less than the 1979-2000 average. It was the third-lowest year after 2007 and 2008. Open water and water covered by thin ice allows heat stored in the ocean to escape to the atmosphere. The autumn release of heat weakens the winds that normally circle the North Pole and act as a fence keeping cold air in. When the circle of winds, the Polar Vortex, breaks down, cold air spills south. etc.. and the news story continues....

Hold on to peace

By Jeremy Last - Thursday 3rd February 2011

ISRAEL Has called on the international community to ensure Egypt's new leaders honor its peace treaty with the Jewish state, as the unprecedented wave of mass protests continued to rock the country. Israelis watched nervously this week as Egypt's under-fire President Hosni Mubarak announced his intention to quit in September, following days of protests, with more than 200,000 people filling Cairo's main square on Tuesday. Mubarak has been one of Israel's closest allies in the region since he took over, following the assassination of Anwar Sadat. There is now widespread concern that the power vacuum could be filled by Islamic extremists, threatening the 30-year peace treaty between the countries. etc.. and the news story continues...

Rising food and energy prices could be here to stay

Shortages of all commodities can cause hardship, but only food and water exact the ultimate price.

By Tom Stevenson 5:00PM GMT 05 Feb 2011

Josette Sheeran at the UN's World Food Programme puts it well: "If people don't have enough to eat they only have three options: they can revolt, they can migrate or they can die." etc.. A perfect storm of problems has driven food prices even higher than in 2008, according to the UN's Food and Agriculture Organisation, which said last week that its main index had hit its highest level for 20 years. The rise to a new peak in January was the seventh monthly increase in a row and there is little prospect of a reversal in the near term. Catastrophic weather is a key driver, with a major snowstorm in the US dumping 20 inches on some parts of the grain belt. US wheat prices hit a two-and-a-half year high last week. In Australia, a massive cyclone has added to the misery of the recent floods, threatening the country's important sugar cane crop. As the chart shows, the price of sugar has tripled in three years. etc.. and the news story continues..

UN: Drought endangers Chinese winter wheat harvest

By NICOLE WINFIELD, Associated Press Nicole Winfield, Associated Press – 1 hr 20 mins ago

ROME – A U.N. food agency said Tuesday that China's winter wheat harvest was at risk because of a drought that also has led to shortages of drinking water for people and livestock. The U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization said the North China Plain drought is already putting pressure on wheat prices in China, with average flour prices rising more than 8 percent in January compared to the previous two months. etc.. etc.. The United Nations has sounded the alarm about rising commodity prices, particularly for wheat, warning that social unrest is likely, such as that seen in Tunisia and Egypt. Wheat prices shot up most sharply in August when Russia imposed a wheat export ban after severe drought hurt harvests across the region. In October, Ukraine, another major grain exporter, imposed quotas on exports because of the drought. etc.. and the news story continues...

US admiral: Carrier killer won't stop US Navy

By ERIC TALMADGE, Associated Press Eric Talmadge, Associated Press – Tue Feb 15, 6:55 am ET

YOKOSUKA, Japan – A new "carrier killer" missile that has become a symbol of China's rising military might will not force the U.S. Navy to change the way it operates in the Pacific, a senior Navy commander told The Associated Press. etc.. The DF 21D is unique in that it is believed capable of hitting a powerfully defended moving target — like the USS George Washington — with pinpoint precision. etc.. That could seriously weaken Washington's ability to intervene in any potential conflict over Taiwan or North Korea, as well as deny U.S. ships safe access to international waters near China's 11,200-mile (18,000-kilometer) -long coastline. etc.. In December, Adm. Robert Willard, the head of the U.S. Pacific Command, told Japan's Asahi Shimbun newspaper he believed the missile program had achieved "initial operational capability," meaning a workable design had been settled on and was being further developed. The missile is considered a key component of China's strategy of denying U.S. planes and ships access to waters off its coast. The strategy includes overlapping layers of air defense systems, naval assets such as submarines, and advanced ballistic missile systems — all woven together with a network of satellites. etc.. and the news story continues...

Oil prices soar on fears Libyan crisis will spread

By CARLO PIOVANO, Associated Press Carlo Piovano, Associated Press – Tue Feb 22, 7:03 am ET

LONDON – Oil prices soared to more than $93 a barrel Tuesday as Libya's uprising spawned violence and chaos that threatened to affect crude production and even spread to other larger OPEC nations in the region. etc.. "Unlike Egypt, Libya is a significant producer of crude, and we may be seeing the largest disruptions since the start of the second Gulf War," energy consultant The Schork Report said.

Farrakhan Issues Stern Warning to Obama About Attacking Libya

By Boyce Watkins, PhD on Mar 21st 2011 2:42PM
Filed under: News, Politics, President Obama

In his usually powerful way, the Minister Louis Farrakhan has taken to the public airwaves to address the U.S. government's decision to attack Libya. The United States has joined with allied forces to (in their words) protect the Libyan people from the alleged tyranny of their leader, Muammar Gadhafi etc.. etc.. In an even more telling fashion, Farrakhan noted similarities between Gadhafi and President Obama: He mentioned that similar to Gadhafi, there are millions of Americans who don't want to see Obama in power, and that intervening with internal dissent in Libya would be no different from someone doing the same here in the United States. etc.. Farrakhan asks the president, "Who in the hell do you think you are that you can talk to a man that built a country over 42 years and ask him to step down and get out? Can anybody ask you ... to step out of the White House 'cause they don't want no black face in the White House?" Farrakhan notes that dissatisfaction with Obama and the U.S. government has reached a boiling point and that the president should be careful about intervening in another nation's internal discord. The Council for Afrika International, a UK-based think tank, also takes issue with the United States' decision to circumvent the African Union in its decision to create a no-fly zone around an African country. etc.. and the news story continues..

Libyan rebel commander admits his fighters have al-Qaeda links

Abdel-Hakim al-Hasidi, the Libyan rebel leader, has said jihadists who fought against allied troops in Iraq are on the front lines of the battle against Muammar Gaddafi's regime.

By Praveen Swami, Nick Squires and Duncan Gardham 5:00PM GMT 25 Mar 2011

In an interview with the Italian newspaper Il Sole 24 Ore, Mr al-Hasidi admitted that he had recruited "around 25" men from the Derna area in eastern Libya to fight against coalition troops in Iraq. Some of them, he said, are "today are on the front lines in Adjabiya". etc.. etc.. and the news story continues and ends with this statement... Earlier this month, al-Qaeda issued a call for supporters to back the Libyan rebellion, which it said would lead to the imposition of "the stage of Islam" in the country. British Islamists have also backed the rebellion, with the former head of the banned al-Muhajiroun proclaiming that the call for "Islam, the Shariah and jihad from Libya" had "shaken the enemies of Islam and the Muslims more than the tsunami that Allah sent against their friends, the Japanese".

At least 35 dead in 6 states after storm's rampage

TOM BREEN and MIKE BAKER, Associated Press Tom Breen And Mike Baker, Associated Press – Sun Apr 17, 8:46 am ET

RALEIGH, N.C. – A furious storm system that kicked up tornadoes, flash floods and hail as big as softballs has claimed at least 35 lives on a rampage that began in Oklahoma days ago, then smashed across several Southern states as it reached a new and deadly pitch in North Carolina and Virginia. Emergency crews searched for victims in hard-hit swaths of North Carolina, where 62 tornadoes were reported from the worst spring storm in two decades to hit the state. Ten people were confirmed dead in Bertie County, county manager Zee Lamb said. At least three deaths were reported in Virginia. Authorities warned the toll was likely to rise further Sunday as searchers probed shattered homes and businesses. The storm claimed its first lives Thursday night in Oklahoma, then roared through Arkansas, Mississippi, Alabama and Georgia. Seven people each were killed in Arkansas and Alabama, two people in Oklahoma and one person in Mississippi, authorities have said. In North Carolina, Gov. Beverly Perdue declared a state of emergency after reporting fatalities in at least four counties. But she declined to immediately confirm an exact number of deaths. etc.. and the news story continues...

China trims holdings of US securities in February

China trims holdings of US securities for fourth straight month; Japan boosts its holdings

Martin Crutsinger, AP Economics Writer, On Friday April 15, 2011, 10:07 am

WASHINGTON (AP) -- China, the biggest buyer of U.S. Treasury securities, trimmed its holdings for a fourth straight month in February and Japan boosted its holdings one month before a devastating earthquake hit the country. China cut its holdings by $600 million to $1.15 trillion, the Treasury Department reported Friday. Japan, the second-largest foreign holder, boosted its holdings by $4.4 billion to $890.3 billion. There have been concerns that the March earthquake and tsunami may cause Japan to scale back its purchases in order to use the money for reconstruction. Total foreign holdings increased 0.5 percent to $4.47 trillion. However, as the government moves closer to the $14.3 trillion debt limit, it will have to scale back sales unless Congress moves to raise the limit. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner has said that the government will hit its current limit no later than May 16. But Geithner said it will be able to avoid an unprecedented default on the national debt through various accounting maneuvers for possibly another two months. etc.. and the news story continues...

Saudi slashes oil output, says market oversupplied

By Amena Bakr and Reem Shamseddine Amena Bakr And Reem Shamseddine – Sun Apr 17, 4:04 pm ET

KUWAIT (Reuters) – Saudi Arabia's oil minister said on Sunday the kingdom had slashed output by 800,000 barrels per day in March due to oversupply, sending the strongest signal yet that OPEC will not act to quell soaring prices. Consumers have urged the exporters' group to pump more crude to put a cap on oil, which surged to more than $127 a barrel this month, its highest level in 2 1/2 years amid unrest in North Africa and the Middle East. Oil Ministers from Kuwait and the United Arab Emirates echoed Saudi Arabia's Ali al-Naimi's concerns about oversupply and said rocketing crude prices were out of the hands of OPEC, which next meets in June. etc.. and the news story continues...

Report sees sharper sea rise from Arctic melt

By KARL RITTER and CHARLES J. HANLEY, Associated Press Writers Karl Ritter And Charles J. Hanley, Associated Press Writers – 2 hrs 1 min ago

STOCKHOLM – The ice of Greenland and the rest of the Arctic is melting faster than expected and could help raise global sea levels by as much as 5 feet this century, dramatically higher than earlier projections, an authoritative international assessment says. etc. Rising sea levels are expected to cause some of global warming's worst damage — from inundated small islands to possible flooding of New York City's subways. Oceans will not rise uniformly worldwide, because of currents, winds and other factors, but such low-lying areas as Bangladesh and Florida will likely be hard-hit. etc. In addition, the cover of sea ice on the Arctic Ocean is shrinking faster than projected by the U.N. panel, threatening the long-term survival of polar bears and other ice-dependent species. Summer ice coverage has been at or near record lows every year since 2001, said AMAP, predicting the ocean will be almost ice-free in the summer in 30 to 40 years. Arctic temperatures in the past six years were the highest since measurements began in 1880, and "feedback" mechanisms are believed to be speeding up warming in the far north. One such mechanism involves the ocean absorbing more heat when it's not covered by ice, because ice reflects the sun's energy. That effect has been anticipated by scientists "but clear evidence for it has only been observed in the Arctic in the past five years," AMAP said. etc. The AMAP report said melting glaciers and ice sheets worldwide have become the biggest contributor to sea level rise. Greenland's ice sheet alone accounted for more than 40 percent of the 0.12 inches (3.1 millimeters) of sea-level rise observed annually between 2003 and 2008, AMAP said. etc. and the news story continues..

Paying for gas forces painful sacrifices

By Jessica Dickler, staff writerMay 4, 2011: 11:11 AM ET

NEW YORK (CNNMoney) -- Aljolynn Sperber, a single mom in Los Angeles, says she can no longer afford to visit her family in Sacramento because of the cost of fuel. "If I fly or drive it's expensive either way," she said of visiting her relatives 400 miles away, who she has not seen in six months. etc. "Gas prices are like Chinese water torture for consumers," said Mark Cooper, Director of Research at the Consumer Federation of America. "The problem is, once you buy your car and once you buy your house your gasoline consumption is pretty much set," he said. etc.. For Robyn Fehring, that means taking her four-year-old daughter out of school one day a week. "My daughter had to be cut back a full day in preschool, because we simply cannot afford to take her," Fehring said. "She'll ask me why she can't go to school today and I feel terrible about it because she doesn't understand."  But with her family's gas bill in Saugerties, N.Y., now over $100 a week, preschool is not the only sacrifice. Fehring said she has also cut back on groceries and may not be able to finish her early childhood education degree in the fall. She is currently enrolled in the College of Saint Rose in Albany N.Y., which is over an hour away. If gas prices continue to rise, the commute alone makes her schooling cost prohibitive, she says. "If it costs $200 for me to drive back and forth to Albany, there's just no way." etc.. and the news story continues...

Miss. River flows over La. levee, flooding crops

By MARY FOSTER and SHELIA BYRD, Associated Press Mary Foster And Shelia Byrd, Associated Press – 1 hr 30 mins ago

BUNCHE'S BEND, La. – Water from the swollen Mississippi River poured over a century-old levee Thursday, flooding 12,000 acres of corn and soybeans despite farmers' frantic efforts to shore up the structure. Downstream, officials with the Port of New Orleans said the Coast Guard could close the river to ships as early as Monday, halting traffic on one of the world's busiest commercial waterways. After swamping low-lying neighborhoods in Memphis, Tenn., earlier this week, the rising water is bringing misery to farms and small waterfront communities in Mississippi, Louisiana and Arkansas. The Corps of Engineers is considering whether to open the Morganza spillway, which would flood thousands of homes and acres of farmland along a 100-mile stretch in Louisiana but take the pressure off levees and help to protect Baton Rouge, New Orleans and the oil refineries in between. A decision is expected in the next several days. etc.. etc.. Swollen by weeks of heavy rain and snowmelt, the Mississippi River has been breaking high-water records that have stood since the 1920s and `30s. It is projected to crest at Vicksburg on May 19 and shatter the mark set there during the cataclysmic Great Flood of 1927. The crest is expected to reach New Orleans on May 23. Even after the peak passes, water levels will remain high for weeks, and it could take months for flooded homes to dry out. etc.. and the news story continues...

Somalia Famine

World turns a blind eye to millions starving in Africa

Famine grips Somalia.  Tens of thousands of people already have dies.  Nearly half of Somalia's population - 3.7 million people -- are in crisis, according to the United Nations.  An immediate infusion of $300 million in aid is needed in the next two months to respond to the disaster, U.N. Secretary General Ban Ki-moon said. etc.. Today, al-Qaida ally Al Shebab controls about half the country, including the two U.N.-declared famine zones.  The Islamist militant group's hostility to all things Western - including food aid - has deepened the crisis.  Shebab forced out relief groups last year, amid the worst drought in 60 years. etc.. and the new article continues...

GOD HAS 2 MOMMIES

Jesus, Mary and ... Josephine? It's lesbian Nativity at church

'A slap in the face to the Holy Family and Christians around the world'

Posted: August 04, 2011 7:55 pm Eastern
By Joe Kovacs © 2011 WND

The Bible's account of the night Jesus was born is noted for some well-known characters at the Bethlehem manger, including the baby Jesus, Mary, Joseph and some shepherds following the instructions of an angel. The famous wise men were not present, as they showed up later when Jesus was a young child in a house. And as far as the New Testament indicates, there weren't any lesbians there either. Now a Christian church in America's heartland is helping redefine the story, as its most-recent living Nativity scene in December featured two women instead of a man and a women starring as Joseph and Mary. "It's not very groundbreaking at all to use the youngest baby in the congregation to play the role of Jesus. The parents just happened to be two women," said Rev. Linda Butler, pastor of St. Timothy's United Methodist Church in Cedar Falls, Iowa. "They were playing the role of the Holy Family, not necessarily Mary and Joseph. We never referred to the moms as Mary and Joseph. We referred to them as the Holy Family." Butler told WND the living Nativity was part of her church's intergenerational Christmas program featuring readings from the gospels mixed with music and live players to recount the event. "And when the Holy Family arrived, it was two women with their baby," she said. "What we emphasized was that this was two parents, and this is our baby and this our story. They're two moms, but it doesn't stand out." Butler added, "It does fit so well biblically," noting that Jesus had a human mother, but Joseph was not the Savior's actual father. "If He was born of a virgin, then Joseph is not the father," Butler said. "He's not part of the conception." etc.. St. Timothy's United Methodist has been a church unafraid of championing homosexual causes. Butler even made them a focus during her day-after-Christmas sermon last December. "In the midst of this Christmas joy," she said from the pulpit, "when God appears to us in human form, the gospel reading reminds us ... we have to shout at church actions ... that do not affirm God's holy work among lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people. We have to shout [that] the government shifts money away from the prevention of AIDS and HIV to abstinence-only policies. "We have to increase our efforts to strengthen LGBT youth who come out, and are thrown out of their families so depression and suicide do not become their modus operandi. We have to advocate against local schools around the world, around our country that have attempts to eliminate books on multi-dimensional families from curricula and libraries." etc.. and the news story continues..

Egyptians to hold ‘million-man protest’ against peace accord with Israel

Egyptian protesters set their sights on changing the country’s foreign policy, calling for the reexamination of the Egyptian-Israeli peace accord, following the recent developments on the two countries' border.

By Zvi Bar'el

Who and how many will take part in today's million-man demonstration in Tahrir Square? It is not expected to be one of the routine demonstrations that have shaken Egypt since January. This time, Tahrir Square will confront Egypt's foreign policy. The headline of the demonstration is "Million-man demonstration to expel the Israeli ambassador," and most of the protest groups have announced that they will participate. Egyptian anger is not only directed at Israel which killed five soldiers during the terrorist attack near Eilat last week, but also against the Egyptian government's policy toward Israel.

East Coast tries to pick up pieces after devastation left by Irene

By the CNN Wire Staff August 29, 2011 8:39 a.m. EDT

Turkish PM announces additional sanctions on Israel

Erdogan drives toward armed clash with Israel. Oil and gas at stake
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report September 9, 2011, 12:04 AM (GMT+02:00)

Turkish Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan this week coolly moved his country step by provocative step towards an armed clash with Israel – not just over the Palestinian issue, but because he covets the gas and oil resources of the eastern Mediterranean opposite Israel's shores.  Thursday night, Sept. 8, he announced that Turkish warships will escort any Turkish aid vessels for Palestinians in the Gaza Strip. In his remarks to Al Jazeera television, the Turkish prime minister also said he had taken steps "to stop Israel from unilaterally exploiting natural resources from the eastern Mediterranean." etc.. etc.. If Turkish ships breach the Israeli naval blockade of Gaza, which a UN report last week pronounced legitimate under international law, Erdogan will become the first Muslim leader to embark on military action in the Palestinian cause. The Arab nations which fought Israel time after time in the past will be made to look ineffectual and the Turkish leader the regional big shot. Even Iran would be put in the shade for never daring to provoke Israel the way Turkey has. The Turkish prime minister clings to the belief that the foremost Arab powers, Egypt and Saudi Arabia, which have been watching his maneuvers with deep suspicion, will have no choice but to play ball with him now that he has confronted Israel. The first crack in the Arab ice came about Thursday, Sept. 8, in the form of Egyptian consent to join the Turkish Navy in sea maneuvers in the eastern Mediterranean. Erdogan plans to send his warships into this water for two missions:1. To split the Israel's small Navy into two heads – one for sustaining the blockade against Gaza and one for safeguarding the gas and oil rigs opposite its shores. 2. To scare Israel into the full or partial stoppage of its offshore oil and gas operations, etc.. and the news story continues...

Weather disasters keep costing U.S. billions this year

By Mary Wisniewski | Reuters – Thu, 8 Sep, 2011

CHICAGO (Reuters) - Blizzards. Tornadoes. Floods. Record heat and drought, followed by wildfires.

The first eight months of 2011 have brought strange and destructive weather to the United States. From the blizzard that dumped almost two feet of snow on Chicago, to killer tornadoes and heat waves in the south, to record flooding, to wildfires that have burned more than 1,000 homes in Texas in the last few days, Mother Nature has been in a vile and costly mood. etc.. etc..

The year began with what was called "Snowmageddon" -- heavy snows in multiple states, including the south.

Kansas got up to 40 inches in some areas in a month -- the same as a typical total for the whole winter. New York had its snowiest January on record.

Snow melt, combined with a wet spring, caused flooding on the Mississippi, Ohio, Souris and Missouri Rivers.

On the Mississippi, records set in the historic floods of 1927 and 1937 were challenged and exceeded along the nation's largest main river artery, resulting in evacuations and millions of acres of flooded farmland.

In the Missouri River valley, flow rates broke previous records, damaging levees and highways.

The year has also been the 4th deadliest tornado year in U.S. history with 546 deaths, according to the NWS.

The May 22 tornado that hit Joplin, Missouri, took 160 lives, making it the deadliest single tornado since 1947.

This summer, the country also baked under days of 100-plus degree heat, with records smashed in northern locations like Newark, New Jersey, which saw a high of 108 degrees.

Texas saw what looks to be its hottest summer, making that vast state into a tinderbox. Wildfires have scorched more than 3.6 million acres since November, fed by a drought that has caused more than $5 billion in damage to the state's farm industry.

In Oklahoma, the average statewide temperature of 86.8 degrees from June to August 31 broke the 85.2 degree mark set in 1934, according to Gary McManus, associate state climatologist. The heat killed 21 people in Oklahoma alone. etc.. and the news story continues...

Israeli envoy flees after embassy in Cairo is attacked

Two killed, hundreds injured in overnight protest in Egypt's capital

Cairo — Israel flew its ambassador home on Saturday after protesters stormed the building housing its embassy in Cairo, plunging Egypt's ruling army deeper into its worst diplomatic crisis since it took over from Hosni Mubarak. The United States, which has poured billions of dollars of military aid into Egypt since Cairo made peace with Israel in 1979, urged Egypt to protect the embassy after protesters hurled embassy documents and the Israeli flag from windows. "Our dignity has been restored," said Mohi Alaa, 24, who protested overnight and was speaking near the site of the clashes, where bits of concrete and bullet casings were strewn over the street.

As Palestinians Push for Statehood, Israel Finds Itself Isolated

By KARL VICK / JERUSALEM | Time.com – 1 hr 34 mins ago

There are links between nations, cordial relations, firm bonds, alliances and strategic partnerships. But what Turkey and Israel had in mind just four years ago was something akin to being joined at the hip. etc.. Which makes the events of the past few weeks all the more worrisome for Israel. With dizzying speed, Turkey has gone from offering oil and gas to Israel to threatening to send gunboats to the Gaza Strip to protect activists seeking to break Israel's naval blockade of the Palestinian territory. etc.. etc.. This conspicuous unfriending could hardly come at a worse time for Israel. As representatives of 193 nations gather in New York City for their annual U.N. conclave, Palestinian leaders are polishing a statehood proposal that would change the fundamental terms of the Middle East's core conflict, possibly putting them on the same legal footing as Israel. etc.. and the news story continues...

Watching a glacier die at Imja Lake

The Mountain Institute hopes it can assess the threat from Imja to villagers living below – and provide some solutions

By Suzanne Goldenberg Friday 16 September 2011 08.16 EDT

It's an odd sensation to watch a glacier die, the snow sliding off the massive black cliffs, punctuated with the cracks of big ice blocks falling away. The Mountain Institute has been doing just that, the last couple of days, watching the scenes at Imja Lake. Imja is the fastest-growing glacier lake in Nepal. The sheer fact of its existence is evidence of the increasing pace of climate change in the high mountains of the Himalayas. The glaciers are melting – although some undoubtedly will remain solid blocks of ice for hundreds more years – and they are spattering the high altitudes with glacier lakes like Imja. etc.. and the news story continues..

Canadian Arctic nearly loses entire ice shelf

World opinion swings back against Israel

Wednesday, September 28, 2011 | Ryan Jones

Even when the Palestinian regime openly identifies itself as an impossible peace partner, it never takes long before the international community finds an excuse to again blame Israel for the lack of a peace agreement. Earlier this week, the world was taken aback by Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas' brash unilateral push for statehood at the UN. For a brief moment, the world sided with Israel as it pleaded in vain for Abbas to return to the negotiating table. But already on Thursday, US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton returned to the familiar rhetoric, suggesting that the construction of a few apartments in Jewish neighborhoods of Jerusalem is what's really blocking peace. "We believe that this morning's announcement by the government of Israel approving the construction of housing units in east Jerusalem is counter-productive to our efforts to resume direct negotiations between the parties," Clinton told reporters. "We have long urged both sides to avoid any kind of action which could undermine trust, including, and perhaps most particularly, in Jerusalem, any action that could be viewed as provocative by either side." EU foreign affairs chief Catherine Ashton and British Foreign Secretary William Hague also condemned what they called "provocative settlement activity." etc.. etc.. and the news story continues.. and ends with this statement... It is worth pointing out that while Clinton is quick to jump on Israel for building a few apartments, she has not been consistent in calling out the "kind of action which could undermine trust" when it comes to the Palestinians. For instance, Palestinian police forces have been operating in eastern Jerusalem in violation of signed agreements for the past couple of years. The Palestinian Authority has also resumed political activity in Jerusalem, again in violation of signed agreements.

Turkish warships harass Israeli freighters. Israeli missile boats off Cyprus
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report October 2, 2011, 11:10 AM (GMT+02:00)

Increasingly assertive Turkey is setting the scene for clashes in the eastern Mediterranean. Since Thursday, Sept. 29, Turkish warships have been harassing Israeli merchant vessels in waters off Cyprus, debkafile's military sources report. They come close enough to establish wireless communication and caution the Israeli vessels they are in contravention of international law and ordering them to change course. The Israeli crews mostly ignore these "orders", treating them as Ankara's latest bid to assert Turkish naval mastery of the Eastern Mediterranean. But the situation is getting explosive enough to spark a major incident. Over the weekend, Israeli Air Force planes circled near the sites of the incidents but not directly over the Turkish vessels. At the same time Israeli missile ships sailed close to Cyprus's Exclusive Economic Zone waters, etc.. and the news story continues...

Iranian president slams "western intolerance for debate over Jewish state's existence" at "Intifada Conference" in Tehran.

Israel is a creation of the West so that it could exert control over the Middle East, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said in his closing remarks to the "Intifada Conference" in Tehran on Sunday.

Speaking at the conference on Saturday, Iranian supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei rejected the Palestinians’ UN statehood bid , saying any deal that accepts the existence of Israel would leave a “cancerous tumor” forever threatening the security of the Middle East. “The two-state scheme, which has been clad in the self-righteousness of the acceptance of the Palestinian government and membership at the United Nations, is nothing but a capitulation to the demands of the Zionists or the recognition of the Zionist regime on Palestinian land,” he declared. etc.. and the news story continues...

Iran 'steals surface-to-air missiles from Libya'

Iran's Revolutionary Guards have stolen dozens of sophisticated Russian-made surface-to-air missiles from Libya and smuggled them across the border to neighboring Sudan, according to Western intelligence reports.

By Con Coughlin

9:00PM BST 22 Sep 2011

The weapons were seized by units attached to the Guards' elite Quds Force, which traveled to Libya from their base in southern Sudan. Acting on orders received from Revolutionary Guards commanders in Iran, they took advantage of the chaos that engulfed Libya following the collapse of the regime of former dictator Colonel Muammar Gaddafi to seize "significant quantities" of advanced weaponry, according to military intelligence officers in Libya. They say the weapons stolen by Iran include sophisticated Russian-made SA-24 missiles etc.. etc.. Intelligence officials believe the missiles and other weapons seized from Gaddafi's abandoned arsenals were smuggled across the Libyan border to southern Sudan earlier this month where they are now believed to be held at a secret storage facility run by the Revolutionary Guards at al-Fashir, the capital of North Darfur. Some of the missiles are also reported to have been smuggled into Egypt. The governments of Iran and Sudan recently signed a defense cooperation pact, and hundreds of Revolutionary Guards are based in Sudan etc.. and the news story continues....

Obama Invades Uganda, Targets Christians

October 14, 2011

RUSH: President Obama has deployed troops to another war, in Africa, ladies and gentlemen. Jacob Tapper, ABC News, is reporting that Obama has sent 100 US troops to Uganda to help combat Lord's Resistance Army. Tapper reporting today: "Two days ago President Obama authorized the deployment to Uganda of approximately 100 combat-equipped U.S. forces to help regional forces 'remove from the battlefield' -- meaning capture or kill -- Lord’s Resistance Army leader Joseph Kony and senior leaders of the LRA." etc.. etc.. You never heard of Lord's Resistance Army? Well, proves my contention, most Americans have never heard of it, and here we are at war with them. Lord's Resistance Army are Christians. It means God. I was only kidding. Lord's Resistance Army are Christians. They are fighting the Muslims in Sudan. And Obama has sent troops, United States troops to remove them from the battlefield, which means kill them. That's what the lingo means, "to help regional forces remove from the battlefield," meaning capture or kill.  So that's a new war, a hundred troops to wipe out Christians in Sudan, Uganda, and -- (interruption) no, I'm not kidding. Jacob Tapper just reported it. etc.. and the news story continues...

Coptic Christians protest outside White House against violence in Egypt

By Pamela Constable, Published: October 19

Hoisting homemade wooden crosses and photographs of bodies they said were crushed by tanks, hundreds of Coptic Christians rallied Wednesday in front of the White House to protest rising violence against minority Christians in Egypt and to demand that the Obama administration pressure Cairo to protect their rights. The demonstrators, mostly Egyptian immigrants who traveled in buses from as far as New York and Chicago, included black-robed Coptic orthodox priests and families who had lost relatives in recent violence in Egypt, including the New Year’s Eve bombing of a church and a bloody clash Oct 9 between protesters and army forces in Cairo that left 27 people dead. “It is like a horrible nightmare. We watch on TV and see our people being run over by tanks,” said Mary Wassef, 66, who took a bus with friends from her church in northern New Jersey. “This is my church and my homeland. But now they want to force all Christians to convert or leave. If you hang a cross in your car, they pull you out and smash you to pieces." Christians in Egypt are a deeply rooted minority of about 10 million in a largely Muslim society of 81 million. Long-simmering tensions between the two groups have escalated since January, when a popular uprising in Cairo led to the fall of longtime ruler Hosni Mubarak but left the country in a state of political turmoil etc.. and the news story continues...

Gaffney: Rise of Sharia Law Will Bring War to the Middle East

Monday, 24 Oct 2011 06:56 PM  By Martin Gould and Kathleen Walter

War is on its way in the Middle East as Muslim countries are determined to force a showdown over the future of Israel, Ronald Reagan’s assistant defense secretary Frank Gaffney warned in an exclusive Newsmax. TV interview. “I’m afraid there’s a war coming, a very serious, perhaps cataclysmic regional war,” he said. “It will be presumably over, at least in part, the future existence of the state of Israel. It may involve all of its neighbors, as they have in the past, attacking Israel to try, as they say, to drive the Jews into the sea. etc.. Gaffney, who now heads up the nonprofit Center for Security Policy in Washington, D.C., was speaking on the day that the “moderate” Islamist party Ennahda claimed victory at the ballot box in Tunisia and the day after Libya’s new rulers declared that country will be run on Islamic principles and under Sharia law. etc.. Gaffney, who writes a regular column for Newsmax, foresees a rising tide of Islamist governments growing throughout Middle East and North Africa and spreading even further. “We’re witnessing not just the violent kind of jihad that these Islamists believe God compels them to engage in, but also, where they must for tactical reasons, a more stealthy kind, or civilizational jihad as the Muslim Brotherhood calls it. We’re witnessing that playing out, not only in places in the Middle East but also in Europe, in Australia, in Canada and here in the United States as well,” he said. etc.. and the news story continues...

US drone strikes violate international law

Fri Oct 28, 2011 6:54PM GMT

The number of US assassination drone strikes has reached one every four days just in Pakistan, while these unmanned planes were introduced for surveillance missions. Meanwhile the UN is not acting on this even when the UN special rapporteur said the US is in breach of international law. Press TV has interviewed with Richard Becker from A.N.S.W.E.R Coalition, to share his opinion on this issue. etc.. The fact that these killings are carried out, that the Obama administration, the pentagon are acting as judger and executioner, often times against people they have no idea even who they are, but even if they do know who they are, even if they do accuse them of some crimes, they have no right to carry out these attacks. Number one; there is no due process for the individuals involved or perhaps even more importantly the United States is acting as if the sovereignty of other countries is of no concern, whatsoever to them. So the drone attacks are carried out in Pakistan, they are carried out in Somalia, in Yemen and in Afghanistan and we do not know where else they are being carried out. The fact is this is the most extreme example that you can possibly imagine of violation of international law and yet there is no action been taken. etc.. and the news story continues...

Muslims Demand Shariah Compliant Catholic University

Michael Bartell

In a recent article Alan Keyes of " Americans United For Freedom " writes the following:

"Muslim students claim Catholic University has "violated their human rights" by displaying crosses and refusing to create Islamic prayer rooms on the private Washington DC based college campus. The complaint even indicates that the University should remove the Basilica from Campus!" Clearly, the Muslims' intention in attending this particular school wasn't to obtain a quality education or even learn about a differing religion. Rather, their intention from the beginning was obviously to disrupt a Catholic institution and strike yet another blow against any religion that isn't Muslim by using the U.S. legal system and suing in order to bring Christendom into subjection. etc.. and the news article continues....

New Mosques Cropping Up In Chicago, Study Shows

by Monique Parsons

Protests against new mosque construction have made headlines from New York City and Chicago to Los Angeles and Nashville. But despite the push-back in some communities, one new academic study shows the number of mosques in the U.S. continues to grow — especially in the Chicago area. etc.. On a sabbatical last year from his job teaching world religions at an Ohio seminary, Numrich got in his 2005 silver Chevy Malibu and racked up 2,500 miles driving around the Chicago area. He counted 91 mosques. A quarter of them were built as mosques — many of them proudly so — a rate that far exceeds the national average.   "What was really fascinating is, at times I was going down a street looking for an address, and out of the corner of my eye would see a mosque that was not on any list; it had opened up recently or had moved or something," Numrich says. 'You Have To Know The Right People' It's demographics that drive this story. An estimated 400,000 Muslims live in the Chicago area, many in wealthier suburbs. etc.. and the news story continues..

Report: Hizbullah preparing missile war on Israel as Iran braces for attack

Special to WorldTribune.com Thursday, November 3rd, 2011

JERUSALEM — The Iranian-sponsored Hizbullah is planning for war with Israel, a report said. The Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs asserted that Hizbullah secretary-general Hassan Nasrallah, in coordination with Teheran, has been meeting senior commanders to plan for war with the Jewish state. The center, in a report by Shimon Shapira, said Nasrallah has ordered his commanders to prepare for long-range missile attacks that would target Tel Aviv and other major Israeli cities. “Nasrallah’s recent escalation of public statements stems from heightened fear in Hizbullah that an Israeli and/or American attack on Iran is drawing nearer,” the report said. “As a strategic arm of Iran, Hizbullah sees itself as Iran’s first line of defense against Israel.” “Hizbullah forces are being trained to fire at least 10,000 missiles, right at the war’s outset, at military and strategic targets such as
airfields, military camps, and vital facilities including maritime ones, followed by the firing of rockets from launch sites whose location will come as a surprise to Israel,” the report, titled “Hizbullah Discusses Its Operational Plan for War with Israel,” said. etc.. and the news story continues..

Sarkozy called Israeli PM Netanyahu 'liar'

8 November 2011 Last updated at 06:03 ET

French President Nicolas Sarkozy called Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu a "liar" in remarks to US President Barack Obama overheard by journalists. "I can't stand him any more, he's a liar," Mr Sarkozy said in French.  "You may be sick of him, but me, I have to deal with him every day," Mr Obama replied.  The exchange at the G20 summit was quoted by a French website, Arret sur Images, and confirmed by other media.  The remarks - during a private conversation - were overheard by a few journalists last week but were not initially reported, the BBC's Christian Fraser in Paris says. Journalists at the bilateral press conference had been handed translation boxes but had been told not to plug in their headphones until the backroom conversation had finished. But those who did heard the revealing comments. etc.. and the news story continues...

China: Iran's New Best Friend

By Eric Shawn & Ben Evansky Published November 10, 2011

Following this week's International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) report concluding that Tehran appears to be well on its way to developing the possibility of manufacturing a nuclear weapon, the next step for world powers is to seek tougher sanctions in the United Nations Security Council. But meaningful restrictive measures are not likely to happen, say many analysts, considering China's close relationship with Iran, in part to satisfy China's great thirst for oil. Today, Chinese and Russian diplomats announced that they believe no new sanctions on Iran are necessary. “The Chinese-Iranian relationship has, in fact, been deepening over the last few years,” notes Michael Singh, a former senior director for Middle East affairs at the National Security Council during the Bush administration. The Chinese government not only dilutes the sanctions in the United Nations Security Council by sort of providing Iran with diplomatic cover, but it doesn't enforce the sanctions it even does agree to in the Security Council." China is Iran's largest trading partner, and this year alone business between the two is estimated at $40 billion, enough of an incentive, say analysts, to block any meaningful Security Council action. Some in Congress are calling on the Obama administration to try and do more. etc.. Di Maggio says China "has a very strong economic interest in maintaining relations with Tehran. First of all, China's thirst for oil is growing exponentially", so if it were to stop trading with Iran, she asks, "where is China going to go to continue to find suppliers of oil?" etc.. and the news story continues...

Libyan mercenaries arrive in Gaza with Grad multiple rocket launchers
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report November 11, 2011, 2:11 PM (GMT+02:00)

Fifty Libyan Muslim Brotherhood mercenaries arrived in the Gaza Strip from Tripoli last month - in time to take part in the Jihad Islami's last missile offensive against Israel starting Oct. 29, debkafile's military sources report. They arrived at the wheels of minivans on which were mounted the new Grad multiple rocket-launchers which Palestinian terrorists fired for the first time last month. These mobile rocket-launchers were last seen on the Libyan battlefield in use against Muammar Qaddafi's army. The 50 mercenaries did not bother to paint over the Libyan national colors or replace the trucks' Libyan license plates. Jihad Islami fighters kept them sequestered away from awkward questions about who sent them. Gazan sources report the Libyan mercenaries left Tripoli on October 10 aboard two buses which drove them via Benghazi to Tobruk. They then entered Egypt as tourists. On Oct. 21, the day Muammar Qaddafi was killed, they crossed the Suez Canal into the Sinai Peninsula. The minivans mounted with the Grad multiple rocket launchers had been moved out of Libya by a separate route and were waiting in the care of Bedouin smugglers beside a Sinai wadi near the old copper mines of Ras Sudar. etc.. and the news story continues..

Column One: With friends like these

By Caroline B. Glick  11/10/2011 22:10
Sarkozy, Obama slurs about Netanyahu are interesting in what what they say about the 2 presidents' characters, and about the way Israel is perceived by West.

The slurs against Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu voiced by French President Nicolas Sarkozy and US President Barack Obama after last week’s G20 summit were revealing as well as repugnant. Thinking no one other than Obama could hear him, Sarkozy attacked Netanyahu, saying, “I can’t stand to see him anymore, he’s a liar.”
Obama responded by whining, “You’re fed up with him, but me, I have to deal with him every day.” These statements are interesting both for what they say about the two presidents’ characters and for what they say about the way that Israel is perceived by the West more generally. To understand why this is the case it is necessary to first ask, when has Netanyahu ever lied to Sarkozy and Obama? This week the UN International Atomic Energy Agency’s report about Iran’s nuclear weapons program made clear that Israel – Netanyahu included – has been telling the truth about Iran and its nuclear ambitions all along. In contrast, world leaders have been lying and burying their heads in the sand. Since Iran’s nuclear weapons program was first revealed to the public in 2004, Israel has provided in-depth intelligence information proving Iran’s malign intentions to the likes of Sarkozy, Obama and the UN. And for seven years, the US government – Obama included – has claimed that it lacked definitive proof of Iran’s intentions. Obama wasted the first two years of his administration attempting to charm the Iranians out of their nuclear weapons program. He stubbornly ignored the piles of evidence presented to him by Israel that Iran was not interested in cutting a deal. Perhaps Obama was relying on the US’s 2007 National Intelligence Estimate about Iran’s nuclear weapons program. As Israel said at the time, and as this week’s IAEA report proves, it was the NIE – which claimed that Iran abandoned its nuclear weapons program in 2003 – not Israel that deliberately lied about the status of Iran’s nuclear weapons program. It was the US intelligence community that purposely deceived the American government and people about the gravest immediate threat to US national security. Israel, including Netanyahu, was telling the truth.
So if Netanyahu never lied about Iran, what might these two major world leaders think he lies about? Why don’t they want to speak with him anymore? Could it be they don’t like the way he is managing their beloved “peace process” with the Palestinians? The fact is that the only times Netanyahu has spoken less than truthfully about the Palestinians were those instances when he sought to appease the likes of Obama and Sarkozy. Only when Netanyahu embraced the false claims of the likes of Obama and Sarkozy that it is possible to reach a peace deal with the Palestinians based on the establishment of an independent Palestinian state west of the Jordan River could it be said that he made false statements. Because the truth is that Israel never had a chance of achieving peace with the Palestinians. And the reason this has always been the case has nothing to do with Netanyahu or Israel.
THERE WAS never any chance for peace because the Palestinians have no interest in making peace with Israel. As the West’s favorite Palestinian “moderate,” Fatah leader and Palestinian Authority chairman Mahmoud Abbas said in an interview with Egypt’s Dream TV on October 23, “I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. I will never recognize the ‘Jewishness’ of the State [of Israel] or a ‘Jewish state.’” That is, Abbas will never make peace with Israel. Acknowledging this, on Tuesday Netanyahu reportedly told his colleagues that through their recent actions, the Palestinians have abrogated the foundations of the peace process. As he put it, “By boycotting negotiations and by going instead to the United Nations [to achieve independent statehood], they [the Palestinians] have reneged on a central tenet of Oslo.” That tenet, which formed the basis of the Oslo peace process, was “land for peace.”
As Netanyahu explained, Israel gave up land within the framework of the Oslo Accords. In exchange the Palestinians committed to resolve their conflict with Israel through direct negotiations that would lead to peace. Their UN gambit, like Abbas’s statement to Egyptian television, shows that the Palestinians – not Israel – have been lying all along. They pocketed Israel’s territorial concessions and refused to make peace. So why do the likes of Sarkozy and Obama hate Netanyahu? Why is he “a liar?” Why don’t they pour out their venom on Abbas, who really does lie to them on a regular basis? The answer is because they prefer to blame Israel rather than acknowledge that their positive assessments of the Palestinians are nothing more than fantasy. And they are not alone. The Western preference for fantasy over reality was given explicit expression by former US president Bill Clinton in September. In an ugly diatribe against Netanyahu at his Clinton Global Initiative Conference, Clinton insisted that the PA under Abbas was “pro-peace” and that the only real obstacle to a deal was Netanyahu. Ironically, at the same time Clinton was attacking Israel’s leader for killing the peace process, Abbas was at the UN asking the Security Council to accept as a full member an independent Palestine in a de facto state of war with Israel. So, too, while Clinton was blaming him for the failure of the peace process, Netanyahu was at the UN using his speech to the General Assembly to issue yet another plea to Abbas to renew peace talks with Israel. Clinton didn’t exhaust his ammunition on Netanyahu. He saved plenty for the Israeli people as well. Ignoring the inconvenient fact that the Palestinians freely elected Hamas to lead them, Clinton provided his audience with a bigoted taxonomy of the Israeli public through which he differentiated the good, “pro-peace Israelis,” from the bad, “anti-peace,” Israelis. As he put it, “The most pro-peace Israelis are the Arabs; second the Sabras, the Jewish Israelis that were born there; third, the Ashkenazis of longstanding, the European Jews who came there around the time of Israel’s founding.” As for the bad Israelis, in the view of the former president, “The most anti-peace are the ultra-religious who believe they’re supposed to keep Judea and Samaria, and the settler groups, and what you might call the territorialists, the people who just showed up lately and they’re not encumbered by the historical record.”
BY RANKING the worthiness of Israel’s citizens in accordance with whether or not they agree with Clinton and his friends, Clinton was acting in line with what has emerged as standard operating practice of Israel’s “friends” in places such as Europe and the US. Like Clinton, they too think it is their right to pick and choose which Israelis are acceptable and which are unworthy. On Wednesday we saw this practice put into play by British Ambassador Matthew Gould. This week the Knesset began deliberations on a bill that would prohibit foreign governments and international agencies from contributing more than NIS 20,000 to Israeli nongovernmental organizations. The bill was introduced by Likud MK Ofir Okunis with Netanyahu’s support. According to Haaretz, Gould issued a thinly veiled threat to Okunis related to the bill. Gould reportedly said that if the bill is passed, it would reflect badly on Israel in the international community. Last month, Makor Rishon published a British government document titled, “NGOs in the Middle East Funded by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office.” The document showed that in 2010, outside of Iraq, the British government gave a total of £100,000 to pro-democracy NGOs throughout the Arab world. In contrast to Britain’s miserly attitude towards Arab civil society organizations, Her Majesty’s Government gave more than £600,000 pounds to farleftist Israeli NGOs. These Israeli groups included the Economic Cooperation Foundation, Yesh Din, Peace Now, Ir Amim and Gisha. All of these groups are far beyond Israeli mainstream opinion. All seek to use international pressure on Israel to force the government to adopt policies rejected by the vast majority of the public. So for every pound Britain forked out to cultivate democracy in 20 Arab non-democracies, it spent £6 to undermine democracy in Israel – the region’s only democracy. And the British couldn’t be more pleased with the return on their investment. Speaking to Parliament last year, Britain’s Minister of Middle East Affairs Alistair Burt said the money has successfully changed Israeli policies. As he put it, “Since we began supporting these programs some significant changes have been made in the Israeli justice system, both civilian and military, and in the decisions they make. They have also raised a significant debate about these matters and we believe these activities will strengthen democracy in Israel.” In other words, as far as Britain is concerned, “strengthening democracy” in Israel means tipping the scales in favor of marginal groups with no noticeable domestic constituency. These shockingly hostile statements echo one made by then-presidential candidate Obama from the campaign trail in February 2008. At the time Obama said, “I think there is a strain within the pro-Israel community that says unless you adopt a[n] unwavering pro-Likud approach to Israel that you’re anti-Israel, and that can’t be the measure of our friendship with Israel.” Scarcely a day goes by when some foreign leader, commentator or activist doesn’t say that being pro-Israel doesn’t mean being pro-Israeli government. And like Obama’s campaign-trail statement, Clinton’s diatribe, Sarkozy and Obama’s vile gossip about Netanyahu and Britain’s self-congratulatory declarations and veiled threats, those who make a distinction between the Israeli people and the Israeli government ignore two important facts. First, Israel is a democracy. Its governments reflect the will of the Israeli people and therefore, are inseparable from the people. If you harbor contempt for Israel’s elected leaders, then by definition you harbor contempt for the Israeli public. And this makes you anti-Israel. The second fact these statements ignore is that Israel is the US’s and Europe’s stalwart ally. If Sarkozy and Obama had said what they said about Netanyahu in a conversation about German Chancellor Angela Merkel, or if Netanyahu had made similar statements about Obama or Sarkozy, the revelation of the statements would have sparked international outcries of indignation and been roundly condemned from all quarters. And this brings us to the other troubling aspect of Sarkozy and Obama’s nasty exchange about Netanyahu. Their views reflect a wider anti-Israel climate. etc.. and the news story continues...

Russian warships off Syria, US carriers near Iran
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report November 21, 2011, 6:20 PM (GMT+02:00)

Big power gunboat diplomacy is in full spate in the Mediterranean and Persian Gulf. Washington is underscoring its military option against Iran's nuclear program, while Russia is demonstrating its resolve to prevent NATO attacking Syria after Libya and defending Bashar Assad's regime. Monday, Nov. 21, Russia's foreign minister Sergey Lavrov accused Western nations of "political provocation" by urging the Syrian opposition to refuse to negotiate a settlement with Assad. Turkish Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan, for his part, advised Assad: "You can only continue with tanks and guns to a certain point, the day will come when you will go."
debkafile's military sources note that Russia and America adopted aggressive postures on Nov. 12, when two American carriers, the USS Bush and USS Stennis sailed through the Strait of Hormuz side by side and took up position opposite the Iranian coast. That was also the day when a mysterious explosion at the Revolutionary Guards base near Tehran wiped out the entire leadership of Iran's ballistic missile program. Five days later, on Nov. 17, the Syrian news agency reported three Russian naval vessels on the Mediterranean were heading toward Syria. Monday, Nov. 21, presidential sources in Damascus announced three warships had entered Syrian territorial waters outside Tartus port. Those sources stressed the Russian ships would not anchor in the Syrian port, indicating that their mission was not just to show the flag for the Assad regime but was on operational duty along its coasts to resist any foreign intervention in Syria unrest. Our military sources are watching to see whether the Russian flotilla targets the small craft transporting arms from Lebanon and Turkey to Syrian rebels fighting the regime. If so, Moscow would be able to present these strikes as actions against piracy which would fall under a UN Security Council resolution. While Moscow and Damascus kept the identity of the Russian warships dark, Arab sources said at least two of them are equipped for gathering intelligence and electronic warfare. As the Russian warships entered Syrian territorial waters, Canadian Defense Minister Peter McKay announced that in the light of the Syrian crisis, the Royal Canadian Navy would keep back in the Mediterranean until the end of 2012 certain vessels which took part in the Libyan campaign. etc.. and the news story continues...

Medvedev takes aim at US missile shield, targeting also Israel's missile defenses
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report November 23, 2011, 7:37 PM (GMT+02:00)

After deploying three warships in Syrian waters, Moscow continues to beat war drums against the United States followed closely by Tehran. Wednesday, Nov. 23, Russian President Dmitry Medvedev told state television: "I have ordered the armed forces to develop measures to ensure if necessary that we can destroy the command and control systems" of the planned US missile-defense system in Europe. These measures are appropriate, effective and low-cost." Iranian Supreme Leader's top advisor for military affairs Major General Yahya Rahim Safavi came next. He said: "The Iranian Revolutionary Guards controls the identity and destination of every US warship which intends to pass through the Strait of Hormuz." debkafile's military sources report that the US missile shield's command and control systems which the Russian president spoke of destroying are linked directly to Israel's missile defense network against Iranian, Syria and Hizballah missiles and the X-Band radar station located in the southern Israeli Negev. Medvedev's threat to American "command and control systems" was therefore comprehensive. It referred not just to the US anti-missile shield facilities planned for Europe, but also to preparing measures for use ("if necessary") - in the course of a possible American or Israeli attack on Iran or Syria - for striking the US missile defense systems in Europe before they can intercept Iranian missiles. Knocking out the European shield would leave Israel completely exposed to Iranian missile attack. In a very few terse words, the Russian president has made it clear that the Kremlin will not allow Iran and its Middle East allies be prevented from missile retaliation in the event of war. etc.. and the news story continues...

Waking People Up And Getting Them To Realize That The American Dream Is Quickly Becoming The American Nightmare

The Russian Bear Is Back, The Soviet Union Is Being Revived And The Cold War Is Not Over

If you believe that the United States is the "sole superpower" in the world, then you really need to read the rest of this article. Most Americans have very little idea what is actually going on in the rest of the world and how the global balance of power is shifting. For example, can you name the country that is the number one oil producer in the world, the number one oil exporter in the world, the number one exporter of natural gas in the world and that also has the second most powerful military in the entire world? In case you need a hint, it is not Saudi Arabia, it is not China and it is not the United States. The correct answer is Russia. The Russian Bear is back in a big way. Did you know that Russia is rapidly becoming one of the top suppliers of oil to the United States? Russia has vast natural resources, a national debt that is very low (ratio of publicly held debt to GDP is less than 10% and an economy that has boomed over the past decade. Russia is busy flexing its muscles in many different ways. etc.. etc.. And tensions between the United States and Russia are rising on multiple fronts. For instance, Russian President Dmitry Medvedev has announced that Russia is going to deploy new nuclear missiles that will be specifically targeted at U.S. missile defense installations if the United States proceeds with plans for a missile defense shield in Europe. etc.. The world is changing and the American people need to wake up. While the United States spends hundreds of billions of dollars chasing around goat herders in Afghanistan, Russia is preparing for nuclear war with the United States. Did you know that Russia has been spending huge amounts of money building a vast system of underground bunkers and shelters? In Moscow alone, 5000 new "emergency bomb shelters" are being constructed. The goal is to have enough shelters to hold nearly the entire population of Moscow and the plan calls for all the shelters to be completed by the end of 2012. etc.. So what is the U.S. government doing to prepare all of us? Nothing. Instead, the Obama administration is doing the best that it can to disarm America. In recent years Russia has also developed submarines that are too "quiet" for us to track and ballistic missiles that can evade all of our missile defense systems. While the U.S. has been making strategic mistakes like helping al-Qaeda take over Libya, Russia has been developing devastating new weapons systems. The following are just a couple of examples.... etc.. and the news story continues...

Islamists triumph in Egypt's election
AFP  Sunday, December 4, 2011 02:20:54 PM
CAIRO (Updated 1) - Islamists trounced their liberal rivals in the opening phase of Egypt's first post-revolution election, official figures showed on Sunday, with one in four voters opting for hardline Salafists. Islamist parties won 65 per cent of all votes cast for parties in the first round of parliamentary elections, while the secular liberals who played a key part in the country's January-February revolution managed just 13.35 per cent. Among the Islamist vote, the moderate Freedom and Justice Party (FJP) of the Muslim Brotherhood won 36.62 per cent, followed by the hardline Salafist Al-Nur party with 24.36 per cent and the moderate Al-Wasat with 4.27 of valid ballots. etc.. The results in Egypt fit a pattern established in Tunisia and Morocco where Islamists have also gained in elections as they benefit from the new freedoms brought by the pro-democracy movements of the Arab Spring. Israel, which shares a border and peace agreement with Egypt, expressed deep concern over the trend. "The process of Islamisation in Arab countries is very worrying," Israeli Defence Minister Ehud Barak told television on Saturday, etc.. and the news story continues..

2011 billion-dollar weather disasters smash record

Washington - America this year smashed the record for billion-dollar weather disasters in a year with a deadly dozen - and counting etc.. With an almost biblical on-slaught of twisters, floods, snow, drought and wildfire, the U.S. in 2011 has seen more weather catastrophes that caused at least $1 billion in damage than it did in all of the 1980s, even after the dollar figures are adjusted for inflation. etc.. Extreme weather in America this year has killed more than 1,000 people, according to National Weather Service Director Jack Hayes. Hayes, a meteorologist since 1970, said he has never seen a year for extreme weather like this "deadly, destructive and relentless 2011." etc.. Global warming makes a difference because there is more water vapor in the air, which leads to higher rainfalls that cause more flooding. It also means overnight minimum temperatures are higher, exacerbating the impact of drought, wildfires and heat waves, said Adam Smith, an applied climatologist at the climatic center in Asheville, N.C. etc.. and the news story continues...

Iran in our own backyard: Hezbollah operatives are rampant in remote areas of Latin America

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is palling around with Hugo Chavez

BY Leah Soibel

NEW YORK DAILY NEWS Originally Published: Thursday, December 22 2011, 4:15 AM

How to thFwart Iran’s nuclear ambitions has been the subject of heated debate recently — and for good reason. The International Atomic Energy Agency’s Nov. 8 report found growing evidence of Iran’s hidden nuclear weapons activities and its development of a missile delivery system.  Obviously, most potential interventions are focused on Iran itself. But we should not forget about the rogue nation’s nefarious activities outside its own borders.  For one, Iran’s ambitions in Latin America are garnering surprisingly little attention in the U.S. Yet Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has been forthcoming about them, saying proudly in a 2009 radio broadcast, “When the Western countries were trying to isolate Iran, we went to the U.S. backyard.” etc.. etc.. This problem has long been brewing, and we’ve done little about it. A former U.S. intelligence agent said in an interview with “10 News San Diego” in May, “We are looking at 15 or 20 years that Hezbollah has been setting up shop in Mexico.” etc.. It’s only getting worse. With Ahmadinejad’s election in 2005 and his immediate alliance with anti-Western leaders in the region like Venezuela’s Chavez, Iranian activity in Latin America became more widespread. Chavez laid out the welcome mat, offering Iran and Hezbollah unlimited access to the region. and the news story continues…

Turkish warships shell narrow water between Israeli and Cypriot gas fields

It was the Cypriot president who broke the silence Friday, Dec. 23 with a warning: "If Turkey does not change its gunboat diplomacy and stop playing the part of regional police officer, there will be consequences which, for sure, will not be good - either for the whole region or the Turkish people and first and foremost for Turkish Cypriots," he said. etc.. and the news story continues...

'Ron Paul wishes Israel didn't exist'

Former senior aide to Republican presidential hopeful says that while Paul is not an anti-Semite, he believes Israel is 'more trouble than it's worth'

Yitzhak Benhorin Published 12-26-11, 22:25 Israel News

WASHINGTON – Republican presidential hopeful Ron Paul negates Israel's right to exist, Eric Dondero, who served as a senior aide to the 76-year-old Texas congressman for over 12 years, said on Monday. In a blog posted in Rightwing News, Dondero said that while Paul was, in his opinion, neither a racist nor an anti-Semite, he is very much anti-Israel. "I worked for the man for 12 years (and) I never heard a racist word expressed towards Blacks or Jews come out of his mouth… I can categorically say that I never heard anything out of his mouth, in hundreds of speeches I listened to over the years, that could be called, anti-Semite," he writes. But according to Dondero, the elderly congressman "wishes the Israeli state did not exist at all." The congressman's former aide insists in his blog that Paul expressed the controversial sentiment "numerous times in our private conversations." Paul's view, he said, "is that Israel is more trouble than it is worth, specifically to the America taxpayer. He sides with the Palestinians, and supports their calls for the abolishment of the Jewish state, and the return of Israel, all of it, to the Arabs." etc.. and the news story continues...
