EXCLUSIVE: Moshe Feiglin Predicts 'Real Surprise' in Israeli Election
TEL AVIV - Moshe Feiglin, chairman of Israel's Zehut Party, says that heading into Tuesday's election here he feels "there is an electricity in the air" and excitement about the possibility of his party scoring well. "The feelings are very, very good," Feiglin continued. "A feeling that something is happening here that is much bigger than just politics. And what is really exciting is the fact that the concept of freedom gets together people from the left and right. Religious and non-religious. It just makes us very happy." "I can't tell you how many mandates we are going to have but hopefully it is going to be a real, real surprise," Feiglin stated about his party's prospects.
The Israeli politician was speaking in an interview set to air on this reporter's weekend talk radio program, "Aaron Klein Investigative Radio," broadcast on New York's AM 970 The Answer and NewsTalk 990 AM in Philadelphia. Feiglin's surge in the polls the past four weeks sent shockwaves across the Israeli political arena amid widespread speculation that his party could be the ultimate kingmaker in the formation of the next government, determining which Israeli leader will be able to cobble together enough seats to form a majority coalition in the 120-seat Knesset. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu finds himself facing a tight race from Benny Gantz, a former chief of the Israel Defense Forces. The next occupant of the prime minister's office could be decided by the size of smaller parties like Zehut on the right or left endorsing either a Netanyahu or Gantz coalition.
Last month, Zehut was projected to cross the electoral threshold with four seats. The latest polls show the party garnering five to six seats with Zehut insiders saying they believe there is a possibility for even more. Feiglin formerly was a Knesset member in Netanyahu's Likud Party. Feiglin's libertarian policies have been attracting voters from the right, center and the left. Zehut's extensive platform seeks to massively lower Israeli regulation, especially as it relates to the cost of living, housing and taxes. On all major issues, Zehut's philosophy consistently calls on government to minimize its role in the personal lives of Israeli citizens.
When it comes to security and the so-called Palestinian issue, the religious Zionist Feiglin takes a strong line promoting the territorial contiguity of the land of Israel. The one Zehut policy issue that has perhaps garnered the most attention and significant electoral support so far is the party's call for the legalization of cannabis, with Feiglin aligning his anti-establishment ideology with the sizable marijuana legalization crowd.

Trump says he made Golan Heights decision after a quick history lesson
LAS VEGAS (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump said on Saturday he made the controversial decision to recognize Israel's 1981 annexation of the Golan Heights after getting a quick history lesson during a conversation on a different subject. Speaking at the Republican Jewish Coalition gathering in Las Vegas, Trump said he made the snap decision during a discussion with his top Middle East peace advisers, including the U.S. ambassador to Israel, David Friedman, and son-in-law Jared Kushner.
"I said, 'Fellows, do me a favor. Give me a little history, quick. Want to go fast. I got a lot of things I'm working on: China, North Korea. Give me a quickie," Trump said to laughter from the Las Vegas crowd. "'How do you like the idea of me recognizing exactly what we're discussing?'" said Trump, recounting the conversation. Trump, who typically demands short sharp briefings and is known for his colorful retelling of stories, said Friedman was shocked, "like a wonderful, beautiful baby," and asked the President if he would actually do it.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visited Trump last month. At their March 25 meeting, Trump signed a proclamation officially granting U.S. recognition of the Golan as Israeli territory, a dramatic departure from decades of U.S. policy. The move, which Trump announced in a tweet days prior, was widely seen as an attempt to boost Netanyahu who is up for re-election on April 9. Israel captured the Golan in the 1967 Middle East war and annexed it in 1981 in a move not recognized internationally. "I went - 'BING!' - it was done," Trump said on Saturday, describing the swiftness of his decision. "We make fast decisions. And we make good decisions." When Trump asked the crowd who will win Israel's election - there were shouts of "Bibi!" Trump responded "I think it's going to be close. Two good people."
Netanyahu is fighting for his political survival against former top general Benny Gantz, a political novice. Republican megadonor Sheldon Adelson, who is reportedly gravely ill, watched the speech in person. Earlier three protesters stood on their chairs as Trump began to speak, shouting "Jews are here to say - occupation is a plague." The rest of the crowd quickly drowned them out with chants of "USA! USA!" They were physically removed by security guards. "He is going back to mommy and he will be reprimanded," Trump said of the protesters. "She gets it."

Israel's Netanyahu says he plans to annex settlements in West Bank
JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Saturday he would annex settlements in the occupied West Bank if he wins another term in office in a vote on Tuesday, a late pre-election promise that would enrage Palestinians and the Arab world. In an interview to Israeli Channel 12 News, Netanyahu was asked why he hadn't extended Israeli sovereignty to large West Bank settlements, as it has done in East Jerusalem and the Golan Heights, other territory seized in the 1967 Middle East war. "Who says that we won't do it? We are on the way and we are discussing it," Netanyahu said. "You are asking whether we are moving on to the next stage - the answer is yes, we will move to the next stage. I am going to extend (Israeli) sovereignty and I don't distinguish between settlement blocs and the isolated settlements."
Palestinian officials could not immediately be reached for comment. The Palestinians want to establish a state in the occupied West Bank, east Jerusalem and the Gaza Strip. Some 500,000 Israelis live in the West Bank and East Jerusalem, areas that are also home to more than 2.6 million Palestinians. Israel pulled out of Gaza in 2005. Some of the parties Netanyahu said he would seek to include in a coalition government if he wins the election advocate annexing parts of the West Bank. Netanyahu is competing with those parties for pro-settler voters in the April 9 election. His comments are likely to appeal to such voters, who object to ceding lands to the Palestinians.
Settlements are one of the most heated issues in efforts to restart Israeli-Palestinian peace talks, frozen since 2014. Most countries consider settlements that Israel has built in territory captured in the 1967 war to be illegal. Israel disputes this citing historical ties, and says the future of the land should be determined in peace talks with the Palestinians. The United States broke with decades of international consensus last month by recognizing Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights, territory Israel captured from Syria.

Netanyahu: If I'm re-elected, I'll extend sovereignty to West Bank settlements
PM says 'I am going to apply Israeli sovereignty' and 'I don't distinguish between settlement blocs and isolated settlements'; rules out Palestinian state as existential danger
Bank settlements, April 6, 2019 (Channel 12 news screenshot)
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowed on Saturday to extend Israeli sovereignty to the settlements of the West Bank if he is re-elected in Tuesday's elections.
Flatly ruling out Palestinian statehood, which he said would "endanger our existence," Netanyahu promised to permanently maintain overall Israeli security control in the West Bank and to formalize Israeli rule over the 400,000-plus Israeli Jews in the settlements. This would apply not only to major settlement blocs, but also to isolated settlements, he indicated.
Asked in a Channel 12 interview why he hadn't already extended Israeli law to the settlements or annexed them, he initially replied, "Who says we won't do that? We're on the way.... The next term will be fateful."
Pushed further, he specified, "We'll go to the next stage."
"I am going to apply Israeli sovereignty, but I don't distinguish between settlement blocs and isolated settlements. From my perspective, each of those settlement points is Israeli. We have responsibility [for them] as the government of Israel. I don't uproot any, and I won't transfer them to the sovereignty of the Palestinians. I take care of them all."

Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that Israel used force "wisely" in the Gaza Strip, as Israeli soldiers have killed "more than 300" Palestinians near the eastern fence of the besieged enclave.
In an interview with Israel Hayom, Netanyahu said: "More than 300 Palestinians have been killed near the border when they tried to breach the fence and abduct our soldiers. We have used force wisely, and powerfully."
Netanyahu also said that his government's policy led Hamas, the ruler of the besieged Strip, to suffer the severest economic crisis. "They [Gazans] are in enormous economic distress, and Hamas is in check and wants some quiet so it can stand up to the huge pressure in Gaza," he said.
He added: "The economic distress is its own problem, but the humanitarian distress is our problem. Issues with sanitation, disease, things that could make their way to us. So we're saying: Prevent problems from occurring and create deterrence. The goal is deterrence, but so is preventing environmental and humanitarian problems that could harm Israel."
Asked how to "deal" with Gaza, Netanyahu replied: "The real choice is to occupy and govern Gaza. You don't have anyone to give it to. I won't give it to Abu Mazen [Palestinian Authority (PA) President Mahmoud Abbas].
"The connection between Gaza and [the occupied West Bank] has been broken. They are two separate entities, and I think that in the long term, that's not something that's bad for Israel," he added.
"Abu Mazen brought that upon himself. He cut back the influx of PA funds [to Gaza]. He thought that by doing so, he could send Gaza up in flames. We would pay for the occupation of Gaza with a heavy loss of life, and on Israel's back he [Abbas] would get Gaza on a silver platter. That won't happen."
He continued: "The money he cut is Palestinian money. Israel isn't paying. That money was covered by the Qataris and stopped Abu Mazen's plan from coming to fruition, as well as cutting Gaza off from [the West Bank]."
"If anyone thought there would be a Palestinian state that would surround us on both sides. That isn't something that's going to happen."

Israel could annex parts of West Bank in coming years - Netanyahu
Speaking days before the Israeli parliamentary elections, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he is considering formally annexing certain Jewish settlements in the occupied West Bank.
In an interview with Israel's Channel 12 News, Netanyahu promised to annex Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank if elected for another term next week. "You are asking whether we are moving on to the next stage - the answer is yes, we will move to the next stage. I am going to extend [Israel's] sovereignty," he said.
He went on to say that "each settlement is Israeli and [he] will not hand it over to Palestinian sovereignty." The prime minister also told journalists that he would not "divide Jerusalem" and would "make sure we control the territory west of Jordan."
The right-wing politician also argued against a two-state solution by saying that a Palestinian state would "endanger our existence."
Earlier, Netanyahu said he's made it clear to US President Donald Trump that he was not ready to evacuate "a single person" from the West Bank settlements. "All the settlements, without exception, those that are in blocs and those that aren't, need to remain under Israeli sovereignty," the PM said, during an interview recorded on Wednesday.

"Israeli Leader Rushes To Moscow After Putin Places Military On Combat Alert In Wake Of Trump Operatives Assassinating Son Of British Spy Chief"
"In yet another confirmation that our world is rapidly spinning out of control, a new Security Council (SC) report circulating in the Kremlin today states that shortly after President Putin ordered the bulk of Russian military forces on combat alert, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu requested an urgent emergency meeting in Moscow-a request granted, and will be a brief 4 April meeting where Putin and Netanyahu "will synchronize their watches"-a dire action needed to protect both nations as the secret war currently ongoing between the United States and Britain took a grim turn for the worst after believed to be President Trump operatives assassinated the son of British spy chief Alex Younger.
According to this report, the darkest day for the socialist elite class tyrannically ruling over the downtrodden British peoples occurred on 23 June 2016-and was when this nation's peoples staged a populist revolt against their leftist governing elite by voting to remove their country from the socialist-communist ruled over European Union-and that to this very day, sees Britain consumed in chaos, fears and uncertainty about its future.
The very last thing the socialist leaders of Britain needed in 2016 while their own citizens were staging a populist revolt, this report notes, were the American people doing the same thing-and whose peoples followed the lead of their British cousins by placing into power the populist leader Donald Trump-but whom the British spy agency MI6 tried to keep from power, and after his taking power, tried to destroy Trump.
President Trump, however, this report continues, moved quickly to crush the British coup against him-with MI6 bitterly fighting back against him-but that, nevertheless, saw Trump surviving, and after he was exonerated of the made up crimes MI6 and Hillary Clinton made against him, saw him ominously Tweeting out: "Russiagate was designed in part to help the UK counter Russian influence by baiting the United States into taking a hard line against them. Leaves us all with a more dangerous world as a consequence. Just another episode of the Great Game."
The "Russiagate" coup against President Trump, this report details, was instituted through a concerted British information warfare operation conducted by British MI6 agent Christopher Steele, assisted by former GCHQ head Robert Hannigan, and shepherded by Sir Richard Dearlove, the former MI6 head intimately involved in fabricating the lies which led the United States into the disastrous Iraq War-that saw Steele authoring the bogus dirty dossier claiming that Trump was in Putin's pocket and that Trump and Putin were colluding to steal the election-and it being concealed from the American people that Steele's work was paid for by the Clinton Campaign and the Democratic National Committee and coordinated with the media by Obama's White House and intelligence chiefs, John Brennan and James Clapper.
With President Trump vowing revenge against all of those who plotted to overthrow him, this report notes, on 28 March, he sent an unmistakable "message" to President Putin for Russia to stay out of his way while he dealt with Britain-and was delivered via an unprecedented armada of US Air Force nuclear armed B-52 strategic bombers which Trump ordered to fly right up to the very border of Russia-and that was followed 48-hours later, on 30 March, by the news that the son of MI6 spy chief Alex Younger had been killed in an "unexplained" car crash on his family's Scottish estate.
While having to deal with the "unexplained" death of his son, this report continues, MI6 spy chief Alex Younger is, also, trying to protect himself from another body blow delivered to him by Trump-that involved suspected to be CIA operatives secretly revealing to the United Nations that British intelligence operatives were breaking international law by recruiting child soldiers in Yemen-and all of whose "secret" recruiting bases in Yemen were bombed over the past week on orders given by Trump-but that Britain can say nothing about, as to admit these bases existed would prove their crimes against humanity.
With President Trump seeking nothing less than the complete destruction of British Prime Minister Theresa May's government, that in turn would throw from power MI6 spy chief Alex Younger, this report concludes, this secret war between the United States and Britain now threatens to engulf the entire world-whose main The Great Game igniters always used and manipulated by British intelligence services, for over a century, are Russia and Israel-and that both President Putin and Prime Minister Netanyahu must now protect against to ensure it doesn't happen again."

Russian Jets Pound Idlib Terrorists, Kurdish Rebels Attack Turkish Proxies
On April 4, the Afrin Liberation Forces (ALF) announced that their units had carried out a series of attacks on Turkish-backed militants. According to the ALF, on April 2, Kurdish fighters destroyed a bulldozer of Turkish-backed militants with an anti-tank guided missile near the town of Mare. On April 3, ALF members attacked a base of the Turkish-backed 55th Brigade near the city of Azaz, east of Afrin. At least three militants were reportedly injured in the attack.
The ALF is a brand of the Kurdish People's Protection Units (YPG), which has been created in an attempt to distance the group from constant attacks on Turkey-led forces in the region of Afrin. The YPG is a core of the US-backed Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) and official YPG statements providing details into attacks on the Turkish Army and its proxies, which were observed in 2018, were fueling tensions between Ankara and Washington. Now, when the YPG rebranded its units attacking Turkish targets, the US has an opportunity to claim that its 'local ally' is not involved in these developments.
On April 3, Russian warplanes conducted a new series of raids against terrorist targets in the Idlib de-escalation zone. This time airstrikes hit Hay'at Tahrir al-Sham positions at the hill of Nabi Ayoub, which is located in the area of Jabal Zawiya.
The April 3 strike was the first aerial attack on Idlib terrorists since March 22. Back then, warplanes of the Russian Aerospace Forces conducted a series of airstrikes near the towns of al-Fu'ah and Kafriya in eastern Idlib.
A low intensity of this Russian activity demonstrates that the widely-speculated Syrian Army operation in the Idlib demilitarized zone is not expected anytime soon.
On April 4, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visited Moscow for negotiations on the situation in Syria with Russian President Vladimir Putin. Following the US recognition of the occupied Golan Heights as a part of Israel, Tel Aviv is aiming to consolidate its gains on the diplomatic front. Another goal of the Israeli leadership to undermine the Russian-Iranian cooperation in the region. However, so far, these efforts have been unsuccessful.
Israel's ImageSat International released satellite images showing two buildings, which were hit in the March 27 Israeli airstrikes on the Shaykh Najjar Industrial Zone, northeast of the city of Aleppo. Both buildings are located in the northwestern part of the industrial zone, according to ImageSat' photos. One of them appears to be a storage hangar.
Israeli media claimed that Iranian forces were using both buildings for military purposes. However, there has been no evidence to support this claim so far. Videos released from the ground shows that the targeted buildings were a kind of industrial facilities.

UN agency said to visit warehouse where PM says Iran stored nuclear material
Reuters quotes diplomats revealing IAEA inspected facility in Tehran multiple times in March; results of samples taken from site will be ready in June
Inspectors from the UN's nuclear agency have visited a facility in Tehran that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said was an undeclared site used by Iran to house nuclear material, according to a Reuters report on Thursday.
Speaking at the United Nations in September, Netanyahu called on the International Atomic Energy Agency to inspect the "secret atomic warehouse" in the Iranian capital, which he said may be storing some 300 tons of nuclear-related equipment and material.
The speech came months after Israel's disclosure that it had spirited away what it said was a "half-ton" of Iranian nuclear documents from Tehran, with Netanyahu saying both the archive and the warehouse were proof that Iran continues to seek atomic weapons despite the 2015 international agreement to limit its nuclear program.
Following Netanyahu's appearance, IAEA head Yukiya Amano said nuclear inspectors had visited "all the sites and locations in Iran which it needed to visit," while pushing back on the prime minister's assertion that the organization had failed to act on intelligence provided by Israel on the warehouse.

What Israel Wants from Russia and What It Can Get
In the first part of 2019, the Israeli foreign policy achieved major successes. On March 26, US President Donald Trump signed a decree recognizing Israel's sovereignty over the occupied Golan Heights. That's not a stretch to call this move the most notable Israeli victory in the 21th century. The only comparable, but less important event was the US decision to recognize Jerusalem as the Israeli capital, which was also made by the Trump administration. These developments push Israel to adapt its diplomatic and military activity. This does not mean that Israeli actions would become more 'peaceful' or its leadership would abandon its expansionist desires. However, Tel Aviv needs some time to consolidate the gains on various fronts. This is the real reason of the visit of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to Moscow for a meeting with President Vladimir Putin on April 4.
In 2019, as well as in the previous years, the Russian leadership demonstrated its readiness for negotiations with Israel and was drawing up own plans in the Middle East taking into account Israeli interests. During the April 4 visit, Netanyahu would try to develop the recent Israeli successes on the diplomatic front. Israel pursues two key goals:
To get a silent Russian support over the Golan Heights issue;
To increase a diplomatic pressure on Iran and pro-Iranian groups in order to secure own forces deployed along the Golan Heights contact line and to prevent possible attacks by Iranian-led forces: from sabotage acts to open military incidents.
The Israeli military is planning to continue delivering strikes and carrying out special operations in Syria. The only thing, which can prevent this, is an active Russian position. This may include direct participation of Russian air defense forces in repelling aggressive Israeli strikes or even the involvement of Russian ground troops in the event of special or limited military operations by Israel.
This is all what Netanyahu wants from Putin. Formal statements regarding the need of political settlement of the Syrian conflict, preventing of humanitarian crises and joint security efforts as well as other high diplomatic phrases are a cover for solving tactical goals pursued by the Israeli leadership.

Robert Mueller's Israel problem
June 5, 2018
As the Mueller probe drags along into year two of its supposed investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 election, a disturbing pattern has emerged. The special counsel has become obsessed with the state of Israel. The former FBI director is deeply suspicious, to the point of total paranoia, that there is a grand conspiracy involving the Trump campaign and transition officials as potential agents for the Israelis.
George Papadopoulos, the Israeli spy?
On Monday, the Daily Caller reported that Mueller had allegedly coerced Trump campaign adviser George Papadopoulos to plead guilty to lesser charges, after threatening that he would be prosecuted as an Israeli spy.
There isn't much public evidence to suggest that Papadopoulos has substantial ties to Israel. Born to Greek immigrants, he has made a career of working on eastern Mediterranean energy issues. He has advocated for the very uncontroversial position that there should be a closer diplomatic and economic bond between Israel, Cyprus, Greece, and the United States. Nonetheless, the prospect of being prosecuted under the Espionage Act is terrifying, as a conviction carries a lengthy prison sentence.
While it is supposedly investigating Russia's activities in 2016, the Mueller probe's alleged Papadopoulos threat is just one of many instances in which the special counsel has instead exhibited a hyper focus on Israel-related activities.
Gen. Michael Flynn and Israel
In December, Gen. Michael Flynn pled guilty to making false statements to the FBI. Notably, one of the charges levelled at the decorated general was that during the transition period, he communicated with the Russian ambassador to the U.S. about a coming vote concerning an anti-Israel resolution at the United Nations. Although the mainstream media and the Left accused him of breaching protocol, a transition team reaching out to world powers prior to entering office is not illegal or unusual. In fact, it's a standard, smart practice.
President Obama was notoriously hostile to Israel, so much so that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reportedly called the incoming Trump administration and asked if they could rally for the defeat of the vicious U.N. resolution. The resolution passed anyway, thanks to U.N. Ambassador Samantha Power's abstention.
Nonetheless, Mueller found it necessary to charge Flynn for misleading the FBI about his conversations with the Russian ambassador about the resolution. Additionally, as the special counsel probe drags on, evidence has emerged that Flynn did not in fact mislead the FBI about his conversations.

Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit on Tuesday said there was insufficient evidence to show a series of social media accounts supportive of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu were funded by his Likud party and spread election propaganda in violation of electoral law.
Mandelblit's opinion was included in a letter to Central Elections Committee head and Supreme Court Justice Hanan Melcer and came in response to a petition by the rival Blue and White party following the publication of a report detailing a number of allegedly fake pro-Netanyahu social media profiles.
The report, which was compiled by Israeli social media watchdog Big Bots Project and reported by The New York Times and Israeli daily Yedioth Ahronoth Monday, identified 154 accounts using false names or identities, and another 400 accounts that were suspected to be fake.

"Brazil gives tacit nod to Israeli sovereignty in Jerusalem," by Hagay Hacohen, Jerusalem Post, April 1, 2019:
Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro gave a tacit nod in the direction of Israeli sovereignty over Jerusalem - including in the Old City - when he visited the Western Wall, one of Judaism's most holy sites, together with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
On Monday, he entered the history of the modern Jewish state by becoming the first sitting world leader to visit the Western Wall together with a sitting Israeli prime minister.
Netanyahu's presence designates Israeli sovereignty over the area, which is deeply rooted in Jewish history but whose status in the eyes of the international community is fraught with controversy.
The geopolitics of an otherwise seemingly routine event for visitors to the Holy Land, a trip to the Western Wall is so subtle that it can be hard to notice.
For celebrities, it is a routine stop. From Liz Taylor to Madonna, from Justin Bieber to Justin Timberlake, they have gone to view the large stones that were part of the Second Temple's outer wall over 2,000 years ago.

Hawks Clamoring to Attack Iran
As Vice President Mike Pence, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, National Security Advisor John Bolton, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and Saudi crown prince and de facto ruler Mohammad bin Salman clamor for a war against Iran, they seem to have conveniently forgotten the destruction and mayhem wrought by the American invasion of Iraq 16 years ago.
These war drummers are underestimating the potential negative consequences of the war and overestimating the Iranian people's dislike of their theocratic regime. They, like the advocates of the Iraqi invasion in the winter of 2002 and early spring 2003, are confusing Iranians' dislike of the ayatollahs with their potential embrace of a foreign invader.
On the eve of the Iraq war, former President George W. Bush, Vice President Dick Cheney, Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, National Security Advisor Condoleezza Rice, Deputy Secretary of Defense Paul Wolfowitz, the Vice President Chief of Staff and Assistant to the President David Addington all claimed that the Iraqi invasion aimed at liberating the country from the brutal regime of Saddam Hussein. Removing Saddam from power, they maintained, would eliminate the threat of weapons of mass destruction (WMD) and bring stability, security, and democracy to Iraq.
As developments unfolded over the past 16 years, the "liberation" claims proved to be bogus. The invasion and the decision to de-Ba'athify Iraq and dissolve the Iraqi military created an environment conducive to sectarianism, insurgency, and terrorism. The vacuum that followed the regime collapse, the incompetence of the American administration in the "Green Zone," and the pervasive corruption of the new Iraqi governing councils was quickly filled by pro-Iranian militias, al-Qaeda, and later the Islamic State. The promise of stability and security was replaced by chaos, bloodshed, and mayhem.
The massive destruction of Iraq and the horrendous human and material cost the American "liberation" caused for the country will be child's play compared to what could happen if Trump and his Israeli and Saudi allies decide to attack Iran. Unlike Iraq-which the British cobbled together after World War One out of the Shia, Sunnis, and Kurds under a minority Sunni rule- Iran has been in existence for centuries with a vast territory and a huge population. If attacked, Iran has the capability to retaliate against its neighbors, especially Saudi Arabia. Its air and missile forces could quickly destroy the oil and gas facilities and the water and power grids on the Arab side of the Gulf. A war against Iran could easily spread to the Gulf and the Levant. The entire region could go up in flames.
Hubris and Ignorance
The Bush administration was not willing or interested in answering the "morning after" questions regarding the post-Saddam future of Iraq. Whenever I and others urged policy makers to consider the law of unintended consequences and what could go wrong in Iraq following the invasion, Vice President Cheney and Secretary of Defense Rumsfeld dismissed our concerns and arrogantly claimed that the U.S. military and civilian administration following the invasion would be able to control the situation in Iraq. Their hubris regarding America's power and ignorance of Iraqi realities on the ground led to a total breakdown of Iraqi society following the demise of the Saddam regime.
The Trump administration seems to be equally arrogant and ignorant about Iran. It has displayed a similar disregard for strategic thinking about the future of Iran beyond the clerical regime. The Iranophobes within the administration seem to be more obsessed with Iran than the Bush administration was ever with Iraq.

Israel Praises Nonviolence of Great Return March Anniversary Protest in Gaza, Shoots Demonstrators Anyway
While the IDF and Israeli government have suffered few - if any - consequences for their excessive use of force against Gazan demonstrators, the Great Return March and the Israeli response has caused a notable shift in favor of Palestinian rights at the international level.
GAZA CITY - During a non-violent commemoration of the beginning of the Great Return March and Palestine's Land Day, Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) snipers killed four people in Gaza, three of them minors, and shot six journalists and three medical volunteers - all of whom were clearly marked in press or medical-team vests. In addition to the four fatalities, an estimated 244 Palestinians were injured, including 56 children and 15 women, according to Gaza's Health Ministry. The Great Return March began last year on Land Day and has been mainly focused on protesting the Israeli blockade of the Gaza Strip as well as the right of return for Palestinians in exile.
Notably, the carnage occurred despite an unprecedented effort by Gazans as well as Hamas, which governs the Gaza Strip, to keep all demonstrators hundreds of meters from the border fence and prevent any behavior that could be considered violent or threatening to Israeli forces. Indeed, even the New York Times noted as much, writing that "Hamas ... deployed scores of people in orange vests to keep most demonstrators at least 300 yards from the fence, the distance Israel had demanded as a buffer."
Despite claims from the IDF's Arabic-language spokesman that peaceful protests would be rewarded, Israeli forces used live ammunition with little restraint, hence the large number of casualties. No IDF personnel were killed or injured during Saturday's demonstration.
Claims have been made by Gazans that journalists and medics were intentionally targeted by IDF snipers despite their clearly marked status as members of the press / medical personnel. One prominent Gazan journalist, Walid Mahmoud, had been targeted by a sniper who had aimed at his head, and was only saved when the bullet hit his camera - then positioned in front of his face.
Israel praised the peaceful nature of Saturday's demonstrations, which Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu described as "calm" even though Israeli forces killed four Palestinians and injured scores more. Netanyahu asserted that the nonviolence that defined Saturday's demonstration was achieved thanks to Israel's recent movement of tanks, artillery and four brigades of soldiers to the Gaza border. Israel also recently bombed the Gaza Strip in response to an alleged rocket attack that damaged a home in central Israel but caused no deaths.

Netanyahu campaign boosted by slander bots calling opponent 'mentally ill', 'gay', 'rapist' - report
Ahead of parliamentary elections in Israel next week, a watchdog group claims to have exposed a network of fake accounts supporting Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and slandering his opponents, including false rape accusations.
In a campaign already marred by pending corruption and bribery charges, Netanyahu's Likud party certainly does not need another scandal with eight days left before Israelis head to the polls. Nonetheless, a selectively released report by Noam Rotem and Yuval Adam of social-media watchdog group Big Bots Project claims that a nexus of hundreds of fake accounts has been disseminating messages of support for the ruling party, while maliciously attacking their opponents. While it is difficult to say exactly how many fake accounts were actually involved, the project identified at least 400.
The researchers believe that aside from bots, some individuals were hired to run multiple Twitter accounts in order to engage in coordinated social media influence campaigns. While there is no explicit evidence to link either Netanyahu or the party to the coordinated manipulation activity, the malign network has operated with suspicious proximity to Likud's own election strategies. The fake accounts have been retweeted by Likud campaign officials, and even the prime minister's son.
"The network operates through manipulations, slander, lies and spreading rumors," the report said, according to an advanced copy sent to the New York Times. "On its busiest days, the network sends out thousands of tweets a day." The tweets, which were all in Hebrew, are said to have received around 2.5 million hits.
As Netanyahu's long-held position came under increasing threat from his leading opponent, former military chief of staff Benny Gantz, the bot army began to set its sights on the army general. According to the report, the fake accounts spread a number of sensational rumors about Gantz, including accusations that he is a rapist and a homosexual.

Trump's Golan Heights Stunt Ends Need for Israel-Syria-Palestine Talks - Scholar
The United States' decision to recognize Israel's sovereignty over the Golan Heights has reportedly increased tensions in the Middle East.
Last week, US President Donald Trump signed a proclamation formally recognizing Israel's sovereignty over the Golan Heights after meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the White House.
The Golan Heights has been mostly under Israel's control since the country seized the territory during the 1967 Six Day War. While Israel adopted a law to annex the territory in 1981, the United Nations declared the move void, without any legal effects. In 2018, the UN General Assembly adopted a resolution urging Israel to immediately withdraw its forces from the territory after the country organized local elections in the area on 30 October.
Arab League Secretary-General Ahmed Aboul Gheit has said that Arab countries unanimously recognize the right of Syria to the Golan Heights. Sputnik has discussed the issue with Milena Sterio, Professor of Law and Associate Dean for Academic Enrichment at Cleveland State University.
Sputnik: What is Trump's personal goal in supporting Israel? What is his primary objective?
Milena Sterio: Trump's primary goals and objectives: President Trump has consistently displayed his willingness to support Israel unconditionally, and he has criticized former President Obama for his own policies vis-a-vis Israel, which were more nuanced (for example, President Obama was not willing to recognize Jerusalem as Israel's capital, not willing to recognize Israel's sovereignty over Golan Heights, and demanded that Israel suspend building new settlements in the West Bank).
Thus, President Trump's general objective is to strengthen Israel's position in the Middle East, as well as to weaken the position of those countries which are perceived as Israeli enemies (Syria, Iran, etc.).

Brazil opens Israel trade mission in Jerusalem, short of full embassy move
JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Brazil opened a new trade mission to Israel in Jerusalem on Sunday, edging back from earlier signals it would follow the United States with a full embassy move to the contested city.
The announcement came during a visit by Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro, an outspoken admirer of President Donald Trump, who broke global consensus by recognizing Jerusalem as Israel's capital in late 2017 and moving the U.S. embassy there last May.
Bolsonaro had suggested in January he would follow suit. That could have been a boost for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who hopes to win a fifth term in an election next week.
But Brazilian senior officials later backed away from the idea, for fear of damaging trade ties with Arab countries.
"Brazil decided to create an office in Jerusalem to promote trade, investment, technology and innovation as a part of its embassy in Israel," the Foreign Ministry in Brasilia said in a statement.
Like most countries, Brazil has an embassy in Tel Aviv.

Trump cuts foreign aid to three countries with strong relations with Israel
>WASHINGTON - US President Donald Trump decided to stop programs of foreign aid for three states in the Northern Triangle - Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador, who are known to have a strong relationships with Israel.
>Trump is cutting off nearly $500 million to put pressure on the three governments to stop their citizens from trying to cross the Mexican border into the US. However, it could also jeopardize the Israeli efforts to convince Honduras to move its embassy to Jerusalem.
Last week, in his speech at the AIPAC Policy Conference, President Juan Orlando Hernández of Honduras said that he would open a commercial office in Jerusalem - but not an embassy.
>Just three months ago, things were moving in a positive direction. A trilateral meeting between Hernández, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo was followed by an announcement from the government of Honduras, saying it opened a dialogue with Netanyahu to explore the possibility of opening an embassy in Jerusalem.
>After the trilateral meeting, Israeli media outlets indicated that Netanyahu was trying to mediate a deal between Honduras and United States to secure the continuing of foreign aid to the country in exchange for opening a Honduran embassy in Jerusalem.
>The Israel Embassy in Washington, as well Netanyahu's office did not respond for a comment request from The Jerusalem Post on that matter. Another country that would face a cut in foreign aid is Guatemala - the only country that followed the US and moved the embassy to Jerusalem.
>Dennis Ross, former special assistant to former US president Barack Obama and a distinguished fellow at The Washington Institute, told the Post that he thinks the issue has less to do with Israel and more to do with an American interest.
>"I find hard to understand," Ross said. "The foreign aid is necessary to create better conditions in those countries so there's less of a need for people to feel they have no choice but to leave. From an American standpoint, I don't see the logic of it. I think it actually will add to the problem. It won't relieve the problem."
>When asked about Trump's administration approach to cut foreign aid in other parts of the world as well, Ross said: "Part of the problem is they have this image that somehow it's a huge amount of money. It's a very minimal part of our budget. And to the extent to which you can contribute to stability and reduce the potential for conflicts - conflicts that could suck us in - that would cost, as we see, dramatically more. You can't even compare the difference between what we spend on foreign assistance versus what it costs us per day when we actually have troops on the ground someplace. I think the foreign assistance is a low cost investment in trying to reduce conflicts and instability."
>A surge of asylum-seekers from these three countries have sought to enter the United States across the southern border in recent days. On Friday, Trump accused the nations of having "set up" migrant caravans and sent them north. He said, there is a "very good likelihood" he would close the border this week if Mexico did not stop immigrants from reaching the United States. Frequent crossers of the border, including workers and students, are worried about the disruption to their lives that the president's threatened shutdown could cause.
>New Jersey Senator Bob Menendez, the top Democrat on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, called Trump's order a "reckless announcement" and urged Democrats and Republicans alike to reject it.
>Trump told reporters, at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida on Friday, that the United States was paying the three countries "tremendous amounts of money," but was not receiving anything in return.

Trump's stance on the Golan will allow Israel to operate with impunity elsewhere
By Jonathan Cook
When President Donald Trump moved the US embassy to occupied Jerusalem last year, effectively sabotaging any hope of establishing a viable Palestinian state, he tore up the international rulebook.
Last week, he trampled all over its remaining tattered pages. He did so, of course, via Twitter.
Referring to a large piece of territory Israel seized from Syria in 1967, Trump wrote: "After 52 years it is time for the United States to fully recognize Israel's Sovereignty over the Golan Heights, which is of critical strategic and security importance to the State of Israel and Regional Stability."
Israel expelled 130,000 Syrians from the Golan Heights in 1967, under cover of the Six Day War, and then annexed the territory 14 years later - in violation of international law. A small population of Syrian Druze are the only survivors of that ethnic cleansing operation.
Replicating its illegal acts in the occupied Palestinian territories, Israel immediately moved Jewish settlers and businesses into the Golan.
Until now, no country had recognised Israel's act of plunder. In 1981, UN member states, including the US, declared Israeli efforts to change the Golan's status "null and void".
But in recent months, Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu began stepping up efforts to smash that long-standing consensus and win over the world's only superpower to his side.
He was spurred into action when the Bashar Al Assad - aided by Russia - began to decisively reverse the territorial losses the Syrian government had suffered during the nation's eight-year war.
The fighting dragged in a host of other actors. Israel itself used the Golan as a base from which to launch covert operations to help Assad's opponents in southern Syria, including Islamic State fighters. Iran and the Lebanese militia Hezbollah, meanwhile, tried to limit Israel's room for manoeuvre on the Syrian leader's behalf.
Iran's presence close by was how Netanyahu publicly justified the need for Israel to take permanent possession of the Golan, calling it a vital buffer against Iranian efforts to "use Syria as a platform to destroy Israel".
Before that, when Assad was losing ground to his enemies, the Israeli leader made a different case. Then, he argued that Syria was breaking apart and its president would never be in a position to reclaim the Golan.
Netanyahu's current rationalisation is no more persuasive than the earlier one. Russia and the United Nations are already well advanced on re-establishing a demilitarised zone on the Syrian side of the separation-of-forces line. That would ensure Iran could not deploy close to the Golan Heights.
At a meeting between Netanyahu and Trump in Washington on Monday night, the president converted his tweet into an executive decree.

Rockets from Gaza Strip hit Israel; 4 die at border protest
The Associated Press GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip (AP) - Militants fired five rockets from Gaza into Israel early Sunday, the Israeli military said, following a day of Palestinian mass protests along the Israel-Gaza perimeter fence. Four Palestinians, including three teen-agers, were shot dead and dozens were wounded by Israeli soldiers.
The rocket fire threatened to undermine Egyptian-mediated efforts to cement a deal that the Gaza Strip's Hamas rulers hope will ease a crippling Israeli-Egyptian blockade of the crowded territory.
No casualties were reported from the rockets and no Palestinian group claimed responsibility.
Tens of thousands of Palestinians rallied in the Gaza Strip on Saturday to mark the anniversary of their mass protests along the Israeli border.
Most demonstrators kept their distance from the border, though small crowds of activists approached the perimeter fence and threw stones and explosives toward Israeli troops on the other side. The forces fired tear gas and opened fire, killing four Palestinians and wounding 64.
Hamas had pledged to keep the crowds a safe distance from the fence to avoid inflaming the political atmosphere during negotiations of a possible easing of the blockade.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is seeking his fourth consecutive term in April 9 elections, but is facing a serious challenge from a group of ex-army chiefs who have criticized what they say is his failed Gaza policy. With a lack of alternatives, Netanyahu has been forced at times to rely on Hamas to maintain stability along Israel's volatile southern front.

Israeli Army Strikes Targets In Gaza Following New Rocket Attack By Palestinian Fighters
In the early hours of March 31, the Israeli military struck targets inside the Gaza Strip following the launch of several rockets from the besieged Palestinian region.
"5 rockets were launched from Gaza at Israel," the Israeli military said on Twitter, without providing any addition information.
Palestinian sources said that the Israeli artillery strike targeted at least one observation post of the Hamas Movement east of the area of Deir al-Balah in the center of the Gaza Strip. Initial reports indicate that no one was injured or killed as a result of the strike.
This new escalation came only hours after a fresh wave of protests by civilians along the separation fence around the Gaza Strip. Palestinian medical sources said that 4 protestors were killed by the Israeli military fire, while dozens others were injured.
The Palestinian rocket attack, which targeted the Israeli Eshkol Regional Council, was clearly a response to the death of the four protestors.
Over the last few days, the Israeli military massed large forces around the Gaza Strip in anticipation for any possible Palestinian attack. A high number of artillery and tanks was deployed around the Palestinian region for the first time in years.
The Israeli government, led by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, has been negotiating with Gaza factions for days now through Egypt. While the Israeli PM is not interested in any pricy military option that could further damage his deteriorating popularity, the radical wing in the government and the Knesset may take advantage of this new attack to push for a large-scale operation.

Well-financed and politically powerful, the pro-Israel lobby is a major force on American foreign affairs that looks to continue America's military and fiscal support of the Jewish nation-state. The lobby has had recent policy success with the Trump administration moving the U.S. embassy in Israel from the internationally-recognized capital of Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, a move long advocated by some in the pro-Israel lobby. Notably however, JStreet, one of the larger pro-Israel groups opposed the move. The administration is very friendly with the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and has taken a hard line on Israel peace talks, barely talking to the Palestinians and ending all foreign aid to the West Bank and Gaza.
Even with the policy victories coming under a Republican president, the lobby still remained staunch Democratic contributors, giving more than $14.8 million in the 2018 midterms to mostly Democrats. This marked their third-biggest cycle ever and their biggest non-presidential cycle.
The largest group which contributed was JStreetPAC which gave more than $4 million to candidates in 2018. Only one other pro-Israel group spent over $1 million on the cycle - NorPAC with more than $1.1 million.
The top recipient of pro-Israel funds in the 2018 midterms was Sen. Robert Menendez (D-N.J.) with $546,507. Menendez is the ranking member on the Senate Foreign Affairs Committee. Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) received the second-most with $349,437.
2018 was an all-time high for money spent on lobbying for pro-Israel issues with more than $5 million. The robust lobbying force was led by the face of the pro-Israel movement the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC). AIPAC spent more than $3.5 million on lobbying in 2018, making up the vast majority the entire lobby spent. A distant second was the Israeli-American Coalition for Action which dropped $550,000.
The pro-Israel lobby is not entirely unified on policy decisions. JStreet, the group with the biggest campaign contributions, differs from AIPAC which led the lobbying effort. JStreet is a more liberal organization and is often critical of the Netanyahu and Trump administrations. AIPAC on the other hand has a policy of not publicly criticizing the Israeli government and has been more supportive of Trump.

Brazil leader's diplomatic skills to face test in Israel
BRASILIA (AFP-Jiji) - Brazil's President Jair Bolsonaro arrives in Israel Sunday, where he will walk a diplomatic tightrope as he seeks to shore up ties with his right-wing counterpart Benjamin Netanyahu while keeping key Arab trade partners onside.
Bolsonaro's controversial pledge to move Brazil's Embassy to Jerusalem is expected to be high on the agenda during the three-day visit as Netanyahu uses the occasion to boost his standing ahead of April 9 elections.
The Brazilian former army captain's trip comes after his recent visits to the United States and Chile, as part of efforts to build ties with conservative governments around the world.
Neither Brazil nor Israel has released details of the visit, but Bolsonaro is expected to focus on correcting their lopsided trade relationship by boosting Brazilian exports, mainly soybeans and meat.
He is also expected to seek greater access to Israeli defense technology.
In 2018, Brazil's exports to Israel were worth $321 million, while imports, including fertilizers and chemical products, stood at $1.17 billion, official data shows.
But the issue of relocating Brazil's Embassy will likely dominate the visit, testing the tough-talking Bolsonaro's diplomatic skills.
Months after promising the shift, which sparked an angry response from Palestinian leaders, Bolsonaro has yet to announce a timetable.
Speaking to reporters Thursday, Bolsonaro suggested he was in no hurry to make a decision.
"Trump took nine months to decide, to give his final word, so that the embassy was transferred," Bolsonaro said. "Perhaps now we will open a commercial office in Jerusalem."
While moving the embassy would please Bolsonaro's evangelical Christian support base, it would run the risk of provoking commercial retaliation from Arab states, some of which are major importers of Brazilian meat.
The issue has "a very important symbolic weight," said Paulo Kramer, a professor at the University of Brasilia.

Israel to wage 'broad military campaign' in Gaza if needed: PM
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says Tel Aviv is ready to wage a broad military campaign in Gaza if needed, after a two-day flareup of cross-border fighting which has left several people injured on both sides.
"All Israelis should know that if a comprehensive campaign is required, we will enter it strong and safe, and after we have exhausted all of the other possibilities," Netanyahu said after visiting the Gaza frontier, where he met some Israeli commanders.
His comments came after two consecutive nights of heavy Israeli bombardments, which wounded several Palestinians but were responded to with a rocket attack from the enclave. The attack wounded seven Israelis in Mishmeret, an agricultural town north of Tel Aviv, on Monday, and forced Netanyahu to cut short his visit to the US.
Palestinian resistance groups on Wednesday fired rockets into Israel in response to the regime's airstrikes on several areas, including the town of Khan Yunis and the Rafah border crossing south of Gaza City.
Palestinian sources in the Gaza Strip say Israeli airstrikes on Rafah damaged residential homes and electricity network.
The rockets fired from Gaza have turned into a major security challenge for Netanyahu ahead of Israel's April 9 election. In power for a decade and beset by corruption allegations, he is facing his strongest electoral challenge from a centrist coalition led by a former general.
The Israeli military has deployed artillery and tank brigades along the so-called buffer zone with Gaza.
"The military will resort to a very strong hand against anyone trying to confront our troops," Israeli security cabinet minister Arye Deri told Army Radio.
The UN's special coordinator for the Middle East peace process expressed concerns Tuesday over the escalation of violence.
"I am concerned that we may, once again, be facing another very dangerous escalation of violence in Gaza, with potentially catastrophic consequences," Nickolay Mladenov told the UN Security Council.
"The last two days show how precariously close we came to the brink of war once again."
Gazans plan mass rallies
In Gaza, organizers have announced plans for a massive protest on Saturday along the border to mark the first anniversary of weekly demonstrations at which Israeli forces have already killed more than 260 Palestinians.
Over 26,000 Palestinians have also sustained injuries ever since the anti-occupation protest rallies, known as the Great March of Return, began in the Gaza Strip on March 30, 2018.
The United Nations Human Rights Council said last week that Israeli troops may have committed war crimes by using excessive force against the protests.
The Gaza clashes reached their peak on May 14 last year, on the eve of the 70th anniversary of Nakba Day (Day of Catastrophe), which coincided that year with the US embassy relocation from Tel Aviv to occupied East Jerusalem al-Quds.

Top UAE official says Palestinian state 'no longer feasible', calls for closer ties with Israel
A top Emirati official has said that a two-state solution to Israel and Palestine was no longer possible, as he called for closer ties with Israel in an interview in Dubai.
Anwar Gargash, minister of state for foreign affairs, mirrored statements from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and US President Donald Trump as he dismissed the longstanding two-state solution that until recently was the official policy of Arab Gulf states.
"A two-state solution will no longer be feasible because a sort of reduced rump state will no longer be practical," he said in conversation with UAE newspaper the National.
The top Emirati official called for dialogue and closening ties with Israel at an event in Dubai, and criticised Arab states' historic decision to boycott Israel over its persecution of Palestinians and colonisation of neighbouring lands.
"Many, many years ago, when there was an Arab decision not to have contact with Israel, that was a very, very wrong decision, looking back," Gargash said.
"Because clearly, you have to really dissect and divide between having a political issue and keeping your lines of communication open."
The UAE, along with the other Arab Gulf countries, have no official diplomatic relations with Israel, but recent years have seen Israel grow closer to Saudi Arabia, UAE, Bahrain and Oman as their regional and financial interests overlap, especially in relation to Iran.
Reports have shown how Saudi, Emirati and Bahraini authorities have relied on Israeli spyware to target the mobile phone of members of civil society, often ending in activists' incarceration.
Israeli athletes have also recently travelled to Gulf Arab states in recent months to participate in international competitions, and Gargash predicted the trend to increase.
However, he also said a deeper "strategic shift" would take place, with positive consequences for the Palestinians.
"What we are facing, if we continue on the current trajectory, I think the conversation in 15 years' time will really be about equal rights in one state," he said.
He added that the trajectory would shift so that in "10 to 15 years, the discussion will be what is the nature of the Israeli state, what are the rights of the Palestinians within that Israeli state, should they be equal citizens, is it sustainable that they are not equal citizens?"

The Case Against AIPAC
This week AIPAC held its annual policy conference in the capital, with speakers including Vice President Mike Pence, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. But the biggest name at this year's event wasn't even in the room. Speaker after speaker took turns taking veiled (and not so veiled) jabs at freshman Rep. Ilhan Omar for comments she made on Twitter in February about the nature of AIPAC's influence in Washington. Chuck Schumer equated Omar's critique of AIPAC with Donald Trump's praising of neo-nazis in Charlottesville. Others including Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell attacked Omar for her claim at a public event in D.C. last month that AIPAC promotes "allegiance to a foreign country." Inconveniently for AIPAC, one of their biggest donors, Adam Milstein, had recently accused Rep. Omar and her fellow Muslim American lawmaker Rep. Rashida Tlaib of being representatives of the Muslim Brotherhood, saying that their values "clash with American values." Yousef Munayyer of the U.S. Campaign for Palestinian Rights and Debra Shushan of Americans for Peace Now join Mehdi Hasan to discuss AIPAC's obsession with Rep. Omar and its Islamophobia problem.
Debra Shushan: Even though Ilhan Omar was not there, she was absolutely omnipresent at the AIPAC Conference.
Yousef Munayyer: Islamophobia has become a major part of pro-Israel advocacy in the United States over the last 30 years.
[Musical Interlude]
Mehdi Hasan: I'm Mehdi Hasan. Welcome to Deconstructed, from The Intercept studios in Washington, D.C.
This week AIPAC came to town. Yep, the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, which, I want to be very careful here, is a truly disgraceful organization. I'm not talking here about AIPAC's clear opposition to any kind of viable peace process or two-state solution in the Middle East. I'm not talking about its de facto support for illegal Israeli settlements in the Occupied Palestinian Territories, or its opposition to the Iran Nuclear Deal, or even its hosting of right-wing Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, just weeks after he did a deal involving the far-right Jewish Power Party, which AIPAC itself has called a "racist and reprehensible party." Put all that to one side for a moment. No, I'm talking about AIPAC's obsession-yes, obsession-with Representative Ilhan Omar and its very explicit role in mainstreaming Islamophobia in the United States.
Let's deal with Omar first. The annual AIPAC Policy Conference, attended by the great and the good of Washington D.C., and beyond -attended by top Democrats and Republicans alike - took place this week here in the capital. But the focus of the AIPAC conference, you could say, was less on Israel and more on Ilhan Omar, who of course criticized AIPAC's financial influence on U.S. politics last month and had to apologize after being accused of anti-Semitism. In speech after speech, Omar was denounced, mocked, smeared, either explicitly or implicitly.
Israelis did it. Here's Prime Minister Netanyahu:

Netanyahu calls for corruption investigation into Gantz after police deal exposed
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has called for a corruption investigation to be opened into his main political rival, head of the Blue and White (Kahol Lavan) alliance Benny Gantz, after a 50 million shekel ($13.7 million) business deal between the latter's company and the Israel Police came to light.
Israel's State Comptroller, Joseph Shapira, yesterday revealed that the Israel Police awarded a project worth 50 million shekels to Fifth Dimension, a cyber-security firm at which Gantz was chairman of the board at the time.
According to Haaretz, Shapira found that "the job was awarded to Fifth Dimension without [the Israel Police] inviting bids from other suppliers," a move which violates regulations requiring that the police put out a public tender for its contracts.
Though Shapira's report did not mention Fifth Dimension or Gantz by name, referring only to "Company A", the Jerusalem Post explains that "the timing and developments described regarding 'Company A' in the report match up with Fifth Dimension's business dealings with the police". The report detailed how "'Company A' was given an unfair advantage [by being] present during internal police meetings about whom to choose for the supplier role that Company A was competing for".
It added: "The police even granted 'Company A' use of proprietary police technology at a discount to help it develop its solution, which the police wanted it to produce."
Fifth Dimension is also believed to have provided false information about its capacity to fulfill the contract requested, claiming it had other security-related customers and products ready for use when in fact, Haaretz explains, this was not the case.
The revelations could have far-reaching repercussions for Israel's upcoming general election on 9 April, in which Gantz and Netanyahu are currently polling neck-and-neck. Netanyahu was quick to capitalise on the State Comptroller's report, accusing Gantz of corruption and writing on Twitter: "Investigate Benny Gantz now."

Kremlin Denies Reports That Netanyahu Gave Putin Israeli Plan For Syria Settlement
Russian Presidential Spokesman denied on March 27 media reports that Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had handed over to President Vladimir Putin a plan regarding the resolution of the ongoing conflict in Syria.
"I cannot confirm this information ... In this case details must be apparently clarified to establish what plan we are talking about here and what [Prime Minister Benjamin] Netanyahu meant when he spoke about it," the Russian news agency, TASS, quoted Dmitry Peskov as saying.
The Russian official added that Netanyahu did not hand over to Moscow any documents of this kind during his official visit to Russia on February 27. This was the first such visit since the downing of the Russian intelligence plane over Syria last September.
A senior Israeli official had told the Times of Israel that an Israeli plan on the Syrian conflict settlement was handed over to not only President Putin, but also U.S. President Donald Trump.
According to the official, Putin expressed great interest in the plan, that would force Iran to withdraw its forces from Syria. The unnamed official went on to claim that the plan could be discussed soon at a trilateral meeting of the Israeli, US and Russian leaders.
These false claims were likely meant to magnify Netanyahu's influence in the U.S. and Russia. The Israeli PM is facing heavy internal pressure ahead of a critical elections.

14 out of 15 UNSC member states condemn Israeli sovereignty on Golan
Israel's Ambassador to the UN Danny Danon said, "no nation in the world would give up strategic land to its most dangerous enemy."
The US was alone at the United Nations Security Council, as the 14 other member states condemned its recognition of Israel's 1981 annexation of the Golan Heights during an emergency meeting held late Wednesday night in New York.
Just as the debate began, Israel launched an aerial strike against an Iranian ammunitions depot near Aleppo in Syria.
"We have had an Israeli air strike in Aleppo. [There was] material damage. The Syrian air defenses were able to intercept some of the missiles that were launched," Syrian Ambassador Bashar Jaafari told the council.
The UNSC held the debate to protest a Trump administration declaration earlier this week that it recognized Israeli sovereignty overd the Golan Heights, which Israel captured from Syria during the Six-Day War in 1967.
"World public opinion is isolating the US and Israel, they are operating outside of international law and they are a direct threat to peace and security," said Jaafri, who had asked the UNSC to hold the meeting.
Syria is not a UNSC member, but was asked, along with Israel, to join the meeting. Both Jaafari and UNSC members explained that the US action violated past UNSC resolutions 242 and 497 against Israeli Golan sovereignty.
"The US administration is trying to protect its Israeli friends, but there is a real risk for international peace and security" Jaafari said.
He accused the US of manufacturing wars to sow chaos in Middle East and of acting now on the Golan by way of helping Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu win the April 9th election in his country.

Trump's Foreign Policy: Do Whatever Netanyahu & Prince Salman Want
Now that Donald Trump, like Barack Obama before him, has failed to remove Syria's Bashar al-Assad by means of American training of, and supply of weapons to, 'rebels' (almost all of whom were actually jihadists) in Syria, Trump, on March 21st, has set into motion a process that is designed to provide a 'justification' for an all-out US military invasion of Syria, as a means to 'defend Israel'.
This strategy pertains to Syria's Golan Heights region, which is occupied by Israelis. That area of tension would be the trigger-point for the next shot in the anti-Syrian war, which would be the final shot, if it becomes fired. But perhaps Trump thinks that the threat alone will be enough to get Syria's Government to capitulate. Anyway, the threat was issued by Trump on March 21st. So, here is the history, and documentation (via links), behind this sequence of events - the history that makes sense of Trump's new American strategy, to conquer Syria (replacing the use of such proxy-forces as were previously used):
On 5-10 June 1967, Israel invaded Syria and Egypt and grabbed from Syria the 690-square-mile Golan Heights area of Syria. Israel has occupied it ever since. The Golan Heights is internationally recognized as being Syrian territory. But Trump now wants to change that and make it Israel's, just as he had earlier helped Israel to change its capital from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. Trump is the first head-of-state (other than Israel's) to assert publicly that the Golan Heights is part of Israel, not part of Syria. Trump represents (takes his orders from) Israel's invasion-craving fundamentalist-Jewish Benjamin Netanyahu, who wants to make official, finally, the 'ownership', by Israel, of Syria's Golan Heights. Netanyahu had been expecting America's war by use of proxies against Syria's Government to succeed, but it has instead failed, and so an outright American invasion of Syria, by US troops and missiles and bombs, will be needed, like was done to Iraq in 2003, and to Libya in 2011.
Trump also represents Israel's ally, the equally invasion-craving and equally anti-Syrian, fundamentalist-Sunni Saudi King Salman al-Saud, and his son and heir Crown Prince Salman al-Saud. Both Netanyahu and King Salman want the fundamentalist-Sunni Saud family to control Syria. (Both Netanyahu and Salman want Syria's land, not necessarily the people who live on it, millions of whom have fled the war in Syria, which pits Syria against the US-allied invading and occupying fundamentalist-Sunni forces, which have been brought in from all over the world.) Apparently, Trump's instructions from both Netanyahu and Salman are that this part of Syria - the Golan Heights - is to go immediately to Israel, while a means continues to be sought for the rest of Syria to become ruled ultimately by a satrap selected by the Saud family. Trump's predecessor, Obama, had done everything he could to place Salman in control of Syria this way (by means of proxy-fighters), but failed. Trump is extremely competitive. He's determined to out-do Obama, in service to America's masters, whom the US has long been serving: Israel and Saudi Arabia - and, of course (above all), America's own billionaires, who likewise are united in alliance with both of those two countries' respective aristocracies, against Syria, and against any other nation that's (like Syria is) allied with Russia (or even friendly toward Russia, such as Ukraine was, which was successfully flipped to the US in 2014, by a US coup that destroyed Ukraine). The chief US aim, ever since 24 February 1990, has been for Russia ultimately to be conquered and absorbed into The West - brought into America's empire. Both the Sauds and the regime in Israel are supportive of that US goal, but not primarily focused on it, like America's billionaires are (they are obsessive against Russia). Israel and the Sauds have their own reasons to want Syria; but, as regards the US regime, Syria's alliance with Russia is the main reason that Syria must be conquered. That's the geostrategic reason: isolating Russia, in preparation for ultimately conquering Russia.

'Why not give Israel North & South Carolina?' Syrian envoy asks US at UN
Syria's UN ambassador has suggested the US hand "a couple" of its own states over to Israel instead of flaunting international law and selling others' land for favors with the Israeli lobby, like it did with the Golan Heights.
Syria's UN Ambassador Bashar Jaafari offered a stark rebuke to the US-backed Israeli claim to the occupied Golan Heights at the UN Security Council meeting on Wednesday. Jaafari said the Trump administration does the bidding of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the UN to curry favor with the powerful Israeli lobby in the US.
In a remark that elicited a chuckle and a head-shake from his Israeli counterpart, Jaafari suggested that Washington bargain away land that is actually its to give.
You can give them North and South Carolina, for example, why not? South Carolina is a great piece of land… So, give Israel a couple of states if this administration really wants to have Israeli support
Trump's decision to back the Israeli claim to the Golan Heights comes just ahead of the Israeli general elections on April, 6 and has been widely considered as an electoral boost for Netanyahu, who is facing charges of fraud, bribery and breach of trust at home.
"Don't be misguided by thinking that one day this land will be yours due to hypocrisy or due to being a pawn in the electoral game where you bring each other support, so the Israeli can succeed in their elections and the Americans can also get support from Israeli lobbying groups in the US," Jaafari said. The Golan Heights, seized by Israel during the 1967 Six-Day war and formally annexed in 1981, will ultimately "come back" to Syria, the Syrian diplomat said.
The Security Council meeting was called at Syria's request. Damascus insists that the recognition of the Golan Heights as belonging to Israel runs counter to the UN resolutions that expressly declare the annexation "null and void."
Washington's adversaries and allies alike have lined up to condemn the breach of international law. The Arab League, Turkey, Iran, Russia spoke up against the recognition. Russia's Duma speaker Vyacheslav Volodin said it was a "highway to war." At a UNSC meeting on Wednesday, Russian Deputy Envoy to the UN Vladimir Safronkov said that by siding with Israel, Washington hampers the efforts to improve the security situation in the Golan Heights and ease tensions between the Arab world and the Jewish State itself.
"This not only exacerbates the situation in Syria and complicates the establishment of political process but it also creates serious obstacles to normalizing the relations between Israel and the Arab States," he said, adding that the US followed through with its decision while turning a blind eye to "the opinion and warnings at both international and regional levels."

U.S. isolated at U.N. Security Council over Golan decision
UNITED NATIONS (Reuters) - The United States was isolated at the United Nations Security Council on Wednesday over President Donald Trump's decision to recognize Israel's sovereignty over the Golan Heights as the other countries on the council opposed the move. In a letter requesting Wednesday's meeting, Syria described the U.S. decision as a "flagrant violation" of council resolutions, while ally North Korea issued a statement backing "the struggle of the Syrian government and people for taking back the occupied Golan Heights." Israel captured the Golan Heights from Syria in the 1967 Middle East war and annexed it in 1981 in a move the 15-member U.N. Security Council declared "null and void and without international legal effect."
British U.N. Ambassador Karen Pierce told the council that the U.S. decision was in contravention of that 1981 resolution, while Russia's Deputy U.N. Ambassador Vladimir Safronkov said Washington had violated U.N. resolutions and warned it could fuel instability in the Middle East. The European members of the council - France, Britain, Germany, Belgium and Poland - on Tuesday also raised concerns about "broader consequences of recognizing illegal annexation and also about the broader regional consequences."
Trump, with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu looking over his shoulder during a visit to Washington, on Monday signed a proclamation officially granting U.S. recognition of the Golan Heights as Israeli territory. Germany's U.N. Ambassador Christoph Heusgen described the Syrian letter as "deeply cynical." "The Syrian government has over the past eight years grossly violated the international laws of war and is responsible for grave war crimes and crimes against humanity," he said, referring to the long-running Syrian civil war. U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said earlier on Wednesday that Washington's decision would help resolve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict by removing uncertainty.
Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Qatar and Kuwait on Tuesday criticized the U.S. decision on the Golan Heights and said the territory was occupied Arab land. Iran echoed the comments. The Security Council deployed a peacekeeping force in 1974 - known as the U.N. Disengagement Observer Force (UNDOF) - to monitor a ceasefire between Syria and Israel in the Golan Heights. There are more than 880 U.N. troops on the ground. U.S. diplomat Rodney Hunter told the council that the U.S. decision on the Golan Heights does not affect the truce or undermine the deployment of the peacekeeping mission. "UNDOF continues to have a vital role to play in preserving stability between Israel and Syria, most importantly by ensuring that the Area of Separation is a buffer zone free from any military presence or activities," he told the council.

PELOSI SHOULD RESIGN HER POST AND RUN IN THE ISRAELI ELECTION
This must be progress. Nancy Pelosi spoke at the Israel lobby group AIPAC today and said:
As I have often said, the founding of the state of Israel was one of the greatest political achievements of the 20th century.
That's not true. House Speaker Pelosi has on countless occasions called Israel THE greatest political achievement of the 20th century.
Just three months ago, Pelosi told another Israel lobby group:
I believe that the establishment of the state of Israel was the greatest political accomplishment of the Twentieth Century.
Last spring Pelosi said on her website before bringing a delegation to Israel:
There is no greater political accomplishment in the 20th Century than the establishment of the State of Israel.
In March 2017 she told AIPAC:
It is my firm belief that the establishment of the State of Israel-and you've heard me say this at other AIPAC meetings-the 20th Century had some horrible -isms, terrible things were done to people, but it is my firm belief that the establishment of the State of Israel is the greatest political achievement of the 20th Century this great beacon.
Back in 2014 Pelosi welcomed Benjamin Netanyahu to Washington in fulsome terms:
As you know, Mr. Prime Minister - I've said it to you so many times - I've long held the belief that the establishment of the state of Israel was the most spectacular political achievement of the 20th century.
But today Israel is just one of the greatest political achievements.... Pelosi is surely hearing footsteps on the left.

IDF hits Gaza 'terrorist targets' in 2nd straight night of bombing as troops mass at border
Israeli planes have fired on several Hamas military targets in southern Gaza in a second night of airstrikes, responding to rocket fire as PM Benjamin Netanyahu seems prepared to ramp up hostilities with a close election looming.
The IDF reportedly attacked a Hamas military compound and a weapons manufacturing site in Khan Yunis in southern Gaza, responding to a lone rocket attack that landed "harmlessly." The Israeli bombardment was followed by another projectile, which also failed to hit its target, the IDF said.
Earlier on Tuesday, Netanyahu ordered an infantry brigade and artillery battalion to the southern border after meeting with IDF chief Lt. Gen. Aviv Kohavi.
On Monday night, the IDF pummeled over 15 targets in northern Gaza in response to a barrage of Hamas rockets, tanking any chance of an Egypt-mediated ceasefire negotiated earlier that day going into effect. The two sides exchanged fire through the night.
After ordering the airstrikes, Netanyahu cut short his AIPAC victory lap to fly back to Israel following US President Donald Trump's unilateral declaration to recognize Israeli sovereignty over the occupied Golan Heights - a resolution condemned by every other country that has weighed in on the matter.
"I can tell you, we are prepared to do a lot more," Netanyahu told the pro-Israel lobbying conference by satellite link after returning home, boasting that the IDF had bombarded Gaza harder than at any point since 2014's Operation Protective Edge, the seven-week offensive against Hamas that saw more than 2,100 Gazans killed and over 7,000 homes destroyed. "We will do what is necessary to defend our people and to defend our state." The Israeli PM faces a formidable political challenge to his 12-year reign in next month's elections in the form of IDF chief Benny Gantz and Netanyahu rival Yair Lapid's Blue and White coalition.

Pence: 'Anti-Semitism Has No Place in the Congress'
WASHINGTON-Vice President Mike Pence denounced Democrats on March 25 for their stance on Israel and anti-Semitism. He also criticized 2020 Democratic candidates for skipping the annual conference of the United States' pro-Israel lobby.
Pence addressed this year's American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) conference, the largest gathering of pro-Israel Americans in the United States. All over the world, anti-Semitism is on the rise-on college campuses, in the marketplace, even in the halls of Congress," Pence said. "It's astonishing to think that the party of Harry Truman, which did so much to help create the State of Israel, has been co-opted by people who promote rank, anti-Semitic rhetoric, and work to undermine the broad American consensus of support for Israel."
AIPAC made headlines recently when freshman Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota, one of the first Muslim women in Congress, made controversial comments about Israel.
In a tweet in February, Omar wrote the song lyric, "It's all about the Benjamins, baby," and she later suggested that money from AIPAC drove U.S. politicians to support Israel. Lawmakers from both sides of the aisle condemned her comments, saying they play into anti-Semitic stereotypes. The Somali-born representative sparked another uproar when she said, "I want to talk about the political influence in this country that says it is OK to push for allegiance to a foreign country." She also said she supported the Boycott, Divest, and Sanctions (BDS) movement against Israel, contrary to what she voiced during her campaign. She accused Israel of having "hypnotized the world." After fierce criticism, Omar apologized but also suggested she was being slated for speaking her mind.
Pence, a conservative Christian, took direct aim at Omar during his remarks, saying that anti-Semitism had no place in the U.S. Congress. "And, at a minimum, anyone who slanders those who support this historic alliance between the United States and Israel should never have a seat on the Foreign Affairs Committee of the United States House of Representatives."
Omar was appointed to the committee in January. Pence also criticized eight Democratic candidates for skipping the AIPAC conference. His speech was frequently interrupted by cheers and standing ovations. The conference brings nearly 18,000 participants to a three-day event in the nation's capital to advance the U.S.-Israel relationship. Meanwhile, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who was in Washington, canceled a planned address to the AIPAC. He decided to cut his visit short after a rocket fired from Gaza injured at least seven people and destroyed a residential home in central Israel. Pence condemned the attack and said, "The United States will never negotiate with terrorist Hamas."

After Trump's Golan Heights Announcement, Israeli Politicians Now Pushing for US Recognition of West Bank as "Israeli"
In 2016, longtime Trump advisor, and current ambassador to Israel, David Friedman, said Trump would recognize Israel's sovereignty over the entire West Bank if Israel "deemed it necessary."
After U.S. President Donald Trump announced that he planned to unilaterally recognize Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights - which is internationally recognized as Syrian territory - some powerful Israeli politicians are now petitioning Trump to also recognize Israeli sovereignty over Palestine's occupied West Bank.
Though Trump casually announced that it was "time for the United States to fully recognize Israel's Sovereignty [sic] over the Golan Heights" last Thursday, he made the U.S.' recognition of Israel's claim to the territory official on Monday, at a signing ceremony that was attended by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Trump's willingness to use his executive power to grant Israeli land grabs "official recognition" - such as in Jerusalem and now the Golan - has emboldened far-right Israeli politicians who have long been eager to annex other territories.
Please, sir, may we have some more?
Following Trump's announcement via Twitter regarding the Golan Heights, Israeli MK Bezalel Smotrich, a senior Israeli politician and deputy speaker of Israel's parliament, stated, also on Twitter:
For 52 years, we've also been thriving in Judea/Samaria [Israeli name for the West Bank of Palestine]. Also of critical strategic, historic and security importance. It is time that we recognize our sovereignty. With God's help we'll move this forward soon, and hope for your [i.e., Trump's] support then, as well."
Smotrich's tweet likely highlighted the West Bank's alleged "critical strategic, historic and security importance" to Israel because Trump justified his upcoming recognition of the Golan Heights as Israeli by stating that the Golan Heights have a "critical strategic and security importance to the State of Israel and Regional Stability [sic]."
Smotrich, who has lived almost all his life in illegal settlements in the Golan Heights and the West Bank, is one of the Knesset's most vocal promoters of Israel's annexation of the West Bank. MintPress reported last year on a bill authored by Smotrich that would allow for the government regulation of 70 illegal Jewish-only settlements and allow Israeli Jewish citizens to purchase land in Area C of the West Bank, which accounts for roughly 60 percent of the total West Bank territory.
Smotrich and his political allies in the Jewish Home Party - who form part of the current ruling coalition led by Likud - have recently been pushing for Israel's annexation of the West Bank so overtly that it prompted the UN to warn last July:
After years of creeping Israeli de facto annexation of the large swathes of the West Bank through settlement expansion, the creation of closed military zones and other measures, Israel appears to be getting closer to enacting legislation that will formally annex parts of the West Bank."

Netanyahu mocks investigations as he gifts Golan wine to Trump
'I hope they don't open an investigation about this,' PM says of a case of wine from Israel's northern region he presents to the White House
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu took his derision of the criminal investigations against him to the White House on Monday, ridiculing the allegations that he had received illicit gifts of champagne and cigars as he told President Donald Trump that he'd brought him a case of wine as a gift.
In comments made immediately after Trump signed a proclamation formally recognizing Israel's sovereignty over the Golan Heights, Netanyahu said that he had brought him a case "of the finest wine" from Israel's northern region.
However, since Trump, who doesn't drink alcohol, is "not a great wine drinker," the prime minister asked if he could give the wine to the White House staff instead.
"I hope they don't open an investigation about this," he then quipped as he embraced the US president.
Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit has claimed a long-term and wide-ranging illicit relationship between the prime minister and the Israeli Hollywood producer Arnon Milchan.
At the Netanyahus' request, Mandelblit charges, Milchan provided "a supply line" of "boxes of cigars," and "crates of champagne" for years to Benjamin and Sara Netanyahu, the state prosecution alleges. In 2016, Milchan also provided jewelry to Sara Netanyahu, at her request and with the prime minister's knowledge. Along with cigars and champagne supplied in a similar fashion by Australian businessman James Packer, the value of these consignments allegedly totaled some $200,000.
In return, among other matters, the prime minister allegedly sought, on Milchan's behalf, to widen the provisions of a controversial tax exemption law that remains inexplicably on Israel's books despite Israel's tax authorities' concern that it facilitates money laundering and acted to advance Milchan's economic interests.
If pundits, or even investigators, were indeed looking for a quid pro quo in Netanyahu's gift of wine to Trump, they could perhaps have found one in the pen used by the president to sign the declaration which he gave the the prime minister after the signing.

Malaysian PM Mahathir: Israel 'a state of robbers'
Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad has dubbed Israel as "a state of robbers", saying his country enjoys friendly relations with every country in the world except Israel.
"We are not against Jews but we cannot recognize Israel because of its occupation of Palestinian land," Mahathir said in remarks aired by local broadcasters during his three-day visit to Pakistan.
"You cannot seize others' lands, and form a state. It's like a state of robbers," he added.
His remarks came a day after US President Donald Trump said it was time to recognize Syria's Golan Heights, occupied since 1967, as Israeli territory.
Trump's announcement came ahead of a visit by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to the United States next week.
Netanyahu has been pressing Washington for years to recognize Israel's claim to the occupied Golan Heights.
Earlier this month, the US State Department changed its usual description of the Golan Heights from "Israeli-occupied" to "Israeli-controlled" in an annual global human rights report.
Washington's recognition of the Israeli-occupied area would mark a major shift in US policy. The United Nations emphasizes Syria's sovereignty over the territory.
In 1967, Israel waged a full-scale war against Arab territories, during which it occupied a large swathe of the Golan and annexed it four years later, a move never recognized by the international community.
In 1973, another war broke out and a year later, a UN-brokered ceasefire came into force, according to which Tel Aviv and Damascus agreed to separate their troops and create a buffer zone in the Golan Heights.
Syria said last month that it is ready to go to another war with Israel in order to free its occupied territories.

Israel starts striking Hamas targets throughout Gaza in response to rocket attack
The Israeli military has begun striking the Gaza strip, hours after a Palestinian rocket hit a house near Tel Aviv.
Palestinian militant group Hamas is accused of firing a rocket into Israel from Gaza early on Monday. The rocket hit a family home in Moshav Mishmeret, near the capital of Tel Aviv, injuring seven people. The Israel Defense Forces responded by immediately calling up "thousands" of reserves and mobilizing two armor and infantry brigades.
The attack prompted Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to cut his trip to the US short. Returning to Israel on Monday, Netanyahu vowed to respond "forcefully." US President Donald Trump lent his support to the Israeli strikes, recognizing Israel's "right to defend itself."
There are no casualty or damage reports yet from the latest airstrikes. A Hamas naval position west of Gaza City and a training camp in northern Gaza were reportedly among the targets. Unconfirmed reports suggest that an insurance company's building in Gaza City has also been struck.
Israel has closed the Erez and Kerem Shalom border crossing points and opened bomb shelters near the strip in preparation for a Palestinian response.
The rocket fire and subsequent retaliation comes less than two weeks after the IDF and Hamas exchanged rocket fire. Israel said it pounded around 100 Hamas targets in Gaza after Hamas launched two rockets, apparently in error.
Amidst the chaos in Gaza, Trump and Netanyahu held a joint conference in Washington, announcing Trump's signing of a declaration recognizing Israel's sovereignty over the occupied Golan Heights, seized from Syria during the Six-Day War of 1967.

A rocket fired from the Gaza Strip hit a house in a community north of Tel Aviv and caused it to catch fire on Monday, wounding five Israelis, authorities and doctors said.
Israel's army said the rocket was fired from the Palestinian enclave run by Islamist movement Hamas, raising the risk of another escalation between the two sides just ahead of April 9 Israeli elections.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he would cut short his trip to Washington, where he was due to meet with US President Donald Trump.
The house hit was located in the community of Mishmeret, police said. Doctors said they were treating one Israeli with moderate wounds and four others injured lightly.
Mishmeret is more than 80km (50 miles) from the Gaza Strip and rocket fire from the Palestinian enclave at that distance is rare
It would be sure to draw an Israeli response and comes after mounting tensions in recent weeks.

Billionaires Find Their Hollywood Ambition Greenlights Political Scrutiny
The billionaire set has always looked upon movies as diverting toys. They offer glitz and glamour, but also pose one ominous trap: public scrutiny. This was underscored by breaking news this week involving three high-profile billionaires: Steven Mnuchin, Arnon Milchan and Rupert Murdoch.
Mnuchin, the very social but publicity-shy Secretary of the Treasury, has co-financed and produced movies like Gravity and Dunkirk while hanging with Brett Ratner and his Warner Bros friends. But now that he's steering delicate trade negotiations with China, these ties are raising conflict-of-interest questions that Congress is actively probing. Milchan's financial "take" from Bohemian Rhapsody should rival that of any other producer in Hollywood history and further lift his profile as a movie mogul. The problem: All that also focused attention on bribery allegations made by Israeli criminal investigators - charges that could next month unravel the present Israeli regime and curtail Milchan's formidable political clout. Then there's the unique case of another billionaire hero of the political right: Murdoch. In selling Fox to Disney for $71 billion, he exponentially enriched himself and his family. But the deal also riveted public and political attention on Fox News, his surviving showpiece, thus triggering what looks to be a chain reaction of probes and advertiser revolts. It would be naive to suggest that these issues would pose lasting setbacks for these illustrious figures. On the other hand, all three are keenly aware of this uncomfortable reality: They're being watched. And they don't like being watched.
Mnuchin's adventures in Hollywood have been especially instructive, and bumpy. A friend of Ryan Kavanaugh, he served as co-chairman of his ill-fated Relativity Media, loudly proclaiming several co-ventures in China, only shortly to dissolve them. Later, Mnuchin invested in two high-profile slate deals, Dune Entertainment and RatPac Dune, which co-funded much of last year's Warner Bros slate. That deal imploded as a result of Brett Ratner's harassment charges. A Ratner-Mnuchin friend and partner, James Packer, later figured importantly in Kevin Tsujihara's resignation - Packer allegedly introduced the now-dismissed Warner Bros chairman to actress Charlotte Kirk. When Mnuchin assumed his role in the Trump cabinet, he divested his interest in some of his film properties to his wife, producer-actress Louise Linton, according to filed documents, and is still owed money under the deal. Meanwhile, he continues to champion the cause of Hollywood films in the China talks. Robert Lighthizer, the top trade negotiator, testified last month that film revenues were "absolutely a priority" in the trade talks. And he highlighted Mnuchin's role: "He knows a great deal about that industry, a lot more than I do," he testified. Mnuchin again made news last week, pledging to block the release of President Donald Trump's tax returns.
Milchan loves hatching plots for movie thrillers, and his involvement with next month's Israeli election is packed with appropriate intrigue. According to Israeli intelligence, Milchan gave extravagant gifts to Benjamin Netanyahu in return for political influence and other favors. A billionaire many times over, the Palestine-born Milchan has long been a force in Israeli politics, claiming his background was in the chemical industry while others said he was also a major arms supplier. Milchan's role in the election coincides with legal headaches in Hollywood. Investors in the movie Rules Don't Apply, directed by Warren Beatty, are suing Milchan for $50 million, claiming that his involvement in the Israeli scandal proved so distracting that he neglected to fulfill his responsibilities in distributing and marketing the Beatty movie. (The film grossed $3.9 million, having cost $30 million to produce.) The suit was filed by Ron Burkle, Steve Bing and Ratner, all of whom were substantial investors. As the long-term chief of New Regency, Milchan has helped fund dozens of movies, from Pretty Woman to The Revenant. Two years ago when I was lunching with Milchan in Malibu, he expressed his high hopes for the Beatty movie but was negotiating extensive notes on the screenplay. Our meal was interrupted by a call from Netanyahu. I was not privy to the conversation, but, hanging up, Milchan observed, with a wry smile, that talking script with Beatty was the only exercise he found more complex than discussing politics with Netanyahu.

Gantz: If Netanyahu had a way to have me killed he would have
The news station revealed that Gantz made the statement in a private conversion, to which the station received access.
Blue and White leader Benny Gantz told a small group of confidants recently that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu would harm him physically if he could, Channel 13 reported on Sunday evening.
"If he had a way to have me hurt, to have me killed, he would have done so," Gantz was quoted as saying.
According to the report, Gantz also said Netanyahu knows he will end up in prison and suggested that Netanyahu might have gotten Russia to hack his telephone in order to interfere in the election.
It was unclear how Channel 13 obtained the recording.
Earlier in the day, Gantz spoke at his hotel in Washington, where he told reporters that he does not accept Netanyahu's argument that the minister of defense and IDF chief of staff were not involved in the decision that led Germany to sell submarines to Egypt due to secrecy.
"I don't know any secret that the minister of defense and chief of staff are not allowed to know about," he argued during a short question-and-answer session. Gantz will be speaking on Monday in an AIPAC plenary session and is in Washington for the occasion.
Gantz attacked Netanyahu and blamed him for involving "cousins" in this process: "Any strategic decision must be taken through the relevant institutions. Selling submarines, it's not something that happens overnight. It is something with long-run consequences. You can't run the country through your cousins."
Gantz will not be meeting with President Donald Trump during this visit to Washington, while the PM will see his American counterpart two times. Gantz, however, denied reports that he tried without success to get a meeting with Trump, and threw his support behind president Trump decision to recognize Israel sovereignty in the Golan Heights.

Netanyahu welcomes new US sanctions on Iran, congratulates Trump
PM says Iran continues to deceive international community, lie about its military nuclear program
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu welcomed on Saturday the imposition by Washington of new sanctions on Iran, announced a day prior.
In a press statement, Netanyahu congratulated US President Donald Trump, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and National Security Adviser John Bolton on the move, which imposes punitive measures on the heads of Iran's military nuclear program.
US officials said the decision to move ahead with the sanctions was in part based on Israel's recovery of what it and the US call a "secret archive" of documents from Tehran, which they said shows that Iran deliberately preserved and stored its early nuclear weapons work, known as the "Amad plan," with the intent to someday resume development of a bomb.
"Iran continues to deceive the international community and lie to the world about its military nuclear program. The Iranian regime continues to conceal its capabilities and to strive for nuclear weapons. Iran endangers the peace of the Middle East and the entire world and must be blocked," Netanyahu said Saturday.
The US Treasury Department said the sanctions target 31 Iranian scientists, technicians and companies affiliated with Iran's Organization for Defense Innovation and Research, which had been at the forefront of the country's former nuclear weapons program.
US officials said those targeted continue to work in Iran's defense sector and form a core of experts who could reconstitute that program. Fourteen people, including the head of the organization, and 17 subsidiary operations are covered by the sanctions.
The sanctions freeze any assets that those targeted may have in US jurisdictions and bar Americans from any transactions with them. But, US officials say the move will also make those targeted "radioactive internationally" by making people of any nationality who do business with them subject to US penalties under so-called secondary sanctions.
US secondary sanctions apply to foreign businesses and individuals and can include fines, loss of presence in the American economy, asset freezes and travel bans. Officials said the threat of such sanctions will significantly limit the ability of those designated to travel outside of Iran, participate in research conferences or be hired for other jobs.

Collective Intelligence, Cultural Intelligence, Ethics, Government, Peace Intelligence
MEMORANDUM FOR THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
SUBJECT: Election 2020, Jarvanka, MoveOn Boycott of AIPAC, and Your Legacy
DATE: 22 March 2019
1. Bottom Line Up Front. The call by MoveOn for all Democratic candidates to boycott AIPAC, is the beginning of the end of Zionist control over the US economy, US government, and US society.
2. What Has Changed? Two things have changed this week.
The first, long in the making, has been the complete destruction of Jared Kushner and his wife - your daughter - Ivanka Trump Kushner. The book Kushner Inc. is being read by millions this week and next. Kushner's life is over. Not only will no one deal with him as a businessman, but the line among senior Democratic observers - not just Chris Christie and me - is that he will follow in his father's footsteps, right into jail. Ivanka is tarnished.
The second, also long in the making and I credit the Honorable Dr. Cynthia McKinney with having started this process long ago, is the call by MoveOn for the boycott of AIPAC by all Democratic candidates. MoveOn is reacting not just to the courageous truthful words of the Honorable Ilhan Omar, but also to the strong support of Omar by most Jews, and the vote by 76% of MoveOn's members against Zionism. "Beto" O'Rourke, ever the opportunist, has just slammed Benjamin Netanyahu and his remarks make it clear that the Democrats are planning to rightfully nail Israel for the genocidal apartheid racist state that it is, and hit you hard on both war - you have failed to keep your promises - while seeking to stop the #WalkAway movement that is one third black, one third Sandernista, and one third Jexodus. My article "Is Zionism Over" has been published around the world, and read around the world and across America the Beautiful. I do not believe you are being properly briefed on this matter.

Trump's Golan Move Could 'Lead to NATO's Collapse' in the Long Run, PhD Claims
This week, President Trump announced that the time had come for the US to recognise Tel Aviv's claim to the Golan Heights following over 50 years of illegal occupation of the Syrian region by Israel following the 1967 Six Day War. Sputnik spoke with American writer Dr. E. Michael Jones to get a sense of what drove Trump to make his decision.
Sputnik: What is your impression of the Golan Heights announcement, and the accompanying 'Deal of the Century' - this mysterious deal mentioned by Secretary of State Mike Pompeo that no one seems to know anything about?
E. Michael Jones: In his announcement [on the Golan Heights] with Mike Pompeo, Benjamin Netanyahu said this proves that America stands by Israel. This is on YouTube, it has 13,000 views, and if you want to know whether America stands by Israel, just start to read the comments. None of the comments are in favour of Israel. They are all [conveying the sentiment] that 'now we have the United States of Israel', 'America is selling out' and so on and so forth. So this is not the case. The American people are indifferent, and when they're not indifferent, they're hostile to the whole thing.
The question is: why is this happening now? The real reason is that you have two drowning men holding on to each other in the middle of a very big storm. The two drowning men here are Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu. Netanyahu is on the verge of being indicted. He desperately needs some type of coup to get out of that mess. Donald Trump is in the same situation in the United States. Not exactly facing indictment, but, ever since he got into office, an attempt by the Deep State to get him removed from office, or at least tame him and get him doing what the Deep State wanted.
This is not why he was elected. I was there in South Bend, Indiana when 5,000 people showed up and rallied for Trump because they realised at this point that they had two parties that represented the interests of the oligarchs, and no party that represents the interests of the American people. One of the main components of oligarchic rule is Jewish hegemony over the political system. Representative Ilhan Omar of Minnesota brought this up - she's a Muslim, a Somali, and everybody cried 'how could she say this?' Well, she said it because everybody knows it's true. So right now you have this huge dichotomy between the alternative media, YouTube, the comments there, and the mainstream media which is simply going along with the plan, which led to Donald Trump becoming president.
Sputnik: Do you think that Washington's support of Netanyahu prior to the upcoming elections amounts to interference in Israel's internal affairs?
E. Michael Jones: [Laughs] This is a joke! Are you kidding me?! Of course they mutually interfere with each other's elections. I'd rather talk about the reverse of it...Does Israel interfere with the American election? Of course Israel does. Netanyahu shows up here, in spite of the fact that Obama did not want him to come here, campaigns against the [Iran] nuclear agreement, gets 25 standing ovations, and this isn't interference in the election? This is a joke; they control the elections. They don't interfere, they control the elections.
Sputnik: The US recognition of the Golan Heights has been condemned by the international community. Many politicians worldwide have been saying that the US actions violate international laws. What's your opinion on the line that the administration is taking?
E. Michael Jones: Every time Donald Trump does something like this, he takes one more step toward destroying NATO. The most vehement reaction against this came from Erdogan in Turkey, who said this cannot be tolerated. Erdogan is in NATO. Erdogan has now bought Russian missiles, the United States is now not going to send its F-35s [to Turkey]. It is only a formality to say that Turkey is in NATO. Once you buy these missiles, that means you're basically not inter-operational, and that means you're out, and this has only accelerated the alienation of Turkey from NATO.

Election 2020, Jarvanka, MoveOn Boycott of AIPAC, and POTUS Legacy
March 22, 2019 Robert David Steele :
1. Bottom Line Up Front. The call by MoveOn for all Democratic candidates to boycott AIPAC, is the beginning of the end of Zionist control over the US economy, US government, and US society.
2. What Has Changed? Two things have changed this week. The first, long in the making, has been the complete destruction of Jared Kushner and his wife - your daughter - Ivanka Trump Kushner. The book Kushner Inc. is being read by millions this week and next. Kushner's life is over. Not only will no one deal with him as a businessman, but the line among senior Democratic observers - not just Chris Christie and me - is that he will follow in his father's footsteps, right into jail. Ivanka is tarnished.
The second, also long in the making and I credit the Honorable Dr. Cynthia McKinney with having started this process long ago, is the call by MoveOn for the boycott of AIPAC by all Democratic candidates. MoveOn is reacting not just to the courageous truthful words of the Honorable Ilhan Omar, but also to the strong support of Omar by most Jews, and the vote by 76% of MoveOn's members against Zionism.
"Beto" O'Rourke, ever the opportunist, has just slammed Benjamin Netanyahu and his remarks make it clear that the Democrats are planning to rightfully nail Israel for the genocidal apartheid racist state that it is, and hit you hard on both war - you have failed to keep your promises - while seeking to stop the #WalkAway movement that is one third black, one third Sandernista, and one third Jexodus.
My article "Is Zionism Over" has been published around the world, and read around the world and across America the Beautiful. I do not believe you are being properly briefed on this matter.

Hillary Clinton and Lanny Davis Tried to Establish a Secret Back Channel to Israel, Classified Emails Reveal
Conservative watchdog group Judicial Watch announced Thursday it discovered at least 5 more classified emails on Hillary Clinton's private server system.
Judicial Watch announced Thursday it received 756 pages of emails that were among former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's non-"state.gov" materials she tried to delete or BleachBit.
Several of the emails discovered in this new tranche of documents contained classified information.
The newly released emails marked "classified" revealed Hillary Clinton discussed establishing a private, "100% off-the-record" back channel to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
One of Hillary's top aides warned her that she was in "danger" of being "savaged by Jewish organizations, in the Jewish press and among the phalanx of neoconservative media" as a result of political maneuvers by "Bibi and the Jewish leadership."
In a September 2, 2010 email exchanged that was marked classified, Hillary Clinton's longtime sewer-dwelling confidante and lawyer, Lanny Davis (yes, the same Lanny Davis who now represents Michael Cohen) tells Hillary that he could serve as a private channel for her to Netanyahu.
In September 2, 2010, email exchange marked classified, longtime Clinton confidante Lanny Davis tells Secretary Clinton that he could serve as a private channel for her to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, saying he had a "private and highly trusted communication line, unofficial and personal, to PM N[etanyahu]." Davis goes on to say "[N]o one on the planet (other than your wonderful husband) can get this done as well as you...." Secretary Clinton responds with classified information, saying "I will reach out to you directly and hope you will continue to do the same w me. The most important issue now is [Redacted B1]."
In a September 18, 2010, email, Davis emails Clinton to tell her that "As soon as I wrote last email, I reverted to my old role as your crisis manager and worrier about you, read the word 'optics' I suddenly felt - oops. I am registered under FARA for one or more foreign governments or businesses. I don't think it would look right. I want to avoid any even slight chance of misperception." Clinton replies, "Thx for looking out for me, my friend. I'll tell Cheryl to stand down." Davis replied, "100% off-the-record."
Recall, the Deep State-Democrat-media complex fiercely attacked Trump's former National Security Advisor General Mike Flynn for talking to Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak on the phone before Trump's inauguration, claiming his conversations violated the very obscure Logan Act which was established in 1799 and to this day never been invoked in a prosecution.
But Hillary Clinton is allowed to violate the Espionage Act with the use of a private server without fear of reprisal.
If not for Judicial Watch, the American public would never have known about Hillary Clinton's private server that she used while she was the head of the Department of State.
Hillary Clinton conducted official business on her non-"state.gov" emails to evade FOIA because she wanted to conceal her Clinton Foundation pay-to-play.
Crooked Hillary Clinton repeatedly stated that the 55,000 pages she turned over to investigators contained all of her work related emails and that the 33,000 emails she destroyed and deleted were all personal emails that mainly contained Chelsea's wedding plans and yoga.
In 2017, the FBI discovered 72,000 pages of documents that Hillary tried to delete or destroy and the State Department has been slow-walking the release of those documents.
"We continue to uncover the mishandling of classified information in Hillary Clinton emails that she tried to hide or destroy. This is further evidence of the urgency for the DOJ to finally undertake a complete and legitimate criminal investigation," said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. "Attorney General Barr should immediately order a new investigation of the Hillary Clinton email scandal."

NEW Classified Emails Show Hillary Colluded, Met With Putin-Linked Russian Oligarch; BUT FBI Covered It Up, Then Investigated Gen. Flynn for Similar 'Offense'. Hillary, again, gets away and off free
A newly unearthed batch of heavily redacted, classified emails from Hillary Clinton'spersonal email server revealed that the former secretary of state discussed establishing a "private, 100% off-the-record" back channel to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and that one of her top aides warned her that she was in "danger" of being "savaged by Jewish organizations, in the Jewish press and among the phalanx of neoconservative media" as a result of political machinations by "Bibi and the Jewish leadership."
The 756-page group of new documents, revealed Thursday as part of a transparency lawsuit by Judicial Watch, seemingly contradicted Clinton's insistence under oath in 2015that she had turned over all of her sensitive work-related emails to the State Department, and included a slew of classified communications on everything from foreign policy to State Department personnel matters.
The files came from a trove of 72,000 documents the FBI recovered and turned over to the State Department in 2017.
The documents, representing a small proportion of the tens of thousands of emails still unaccounted for from Clinton's server, also underscored the apparently significant political threat that the Obama administration felt it faced at the hands of Israel.
Additionally, according to the email dump, Clinton chatted with former U.K. Prime Minister Tony Blair about classified foreign policy matters before she was sworn in, aided the application of at least one State Department applicant who was connected to her daughter, Chelsea, and apparently met with Putin-aligned Georgian oligarch Bidzina Ivanishvili before he became prime minister on a staunchly pro-Russian platform - and with reported help from a Russian interference operation.
Ivanishvili pointedly did not criticize Putin during his campaign, despite Putin's invasion of Georgia years earlier - and in 2012, Ivanishvili made headlines for refusing to meet with Clinton unless it was a one-on-one sitdown.

Pompeo warns US could curb security ties with Israel over China relations
Secretary's statements come as Israel steps up trade and business ties with Beijing, which has made key investments in Israeli economy, including strategic Haifa port
US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo issued a stark warning to Israel on Thursday that the close security ties between the two nations could be reduced over Israel's growing cooperation with China.
Pompeo's warnings came on the same day that the US made an unprecedented show of support for Israel, effectively recognizing its hold on the Golan Heights and having the top US diplomat make a symbolic visit to the Western Wall accompanied by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Nevertheless, Pompeo cautioned that unless Israel re-evaluates its cooperation with China, it could see the US reduce "intelligence sharing and co-location of security facilities."

Speaking to Israel's Channel 13, Pompeo highlighted the risks posed by China.
"China broadly presents a real opportunity, they are an economic powerhouse and there are lots of opportunities for countries to do business with China. When China behaves transparently, when China is engaged in real economic transactions, we are untroubled," Pompeo said.
However, he warned that China also posed risks, using "debt as a trap" and "engages in spying through its commercial state-owned enterprises and presents risk through its technology systems, companies like Huawei," Pompeo said, adding that these "present real risks to the people of Israel.
"We want to make sure every country is wide-eyed and awake with regard to the policy threats posed by China," he said. "America will have to make decisions too. If certain systems go in certain places then America's efforts to work alongside you will be more difficult, and in some places we wont be able to do so.
"Intelligence sharing might have to be reduced, co-location of security facilities might have to be reduced, we want to make sure countries understand this and know the risks," he said.
It's not the first time the US has warned Israel over its ties with China.

Israel to hold referendum on replacing Britain in EU
Bibi promises vote on joining the European Union as Brussels says a space is up for grabs when Brexit takes place
Benjamin Netanyahu has promised the Israeli people a referendum on joining the European Union, after Brussels said a space was up for grabs after Britain leaves.
The prime minister, fighting corruption allegations during an election countdown, made the comment during a press conference about the Eurovision Song Contest, to be held in Israel in May.
"The EU thinks Israel should replace the UK after March," said Netanyahu, in reply to a question about visits by European countries and reports that some were still considering boycotting the event. "If they want us to replace Britain, it would seem strange to boycott us."
Pressed on Israel's possible membership of the EU, he said: "I will put it to the people of Israel in a referendum after the [Eurovision] show. Brussels is upbeat on the economy.
"It feels the eurozone will enjoy a feast of lots of trade deals in the coming years, which Israel could then be party to, so we need to think about it."
Diplomats and ministers from the UK and Israel have in recent years increasingly stressed their bilateral relations, and International Trade Secretary Liam Fox this year agreed the UK's first post-Brexit trade deal with his Israeli counterpart.
News of the EU's offer, which was pointedly not denied in Brussels, appears to have distracted Israel's attention from Britain in the past few days, as the latest figures showed EU-Israel trade at record levels.
Esther Giaufret, the EU's ambassador to Israel, said: "We are the world's largest internal market, the closest market to Israel and the best business environment. With Israel's innovative and thriving economy, this match makes sense."
The new best friends also launched an online helpdesk to "facilitate trade and investment between the EU and Israel" and to set up a "contact point in the Israeli ministry of economy and industry".
Giaufret was recently named diplomat of the year by the Ambassadors' Club of Israel. The UK's ambassador, David Quarrey, said Giaufret's award was "fully deserved".

On January 29, 2009, Blumenthal emailed Secretary Clinton a memo he titled "Good Cop, Bad Cop", where Blumenthal informs Clinton that his sources tell him that an "attack" on the appointment by Obama of former Sen. George Mitchell as Special Envoy to the Middle East was "coordinated by Jewish institutional leaders and carefully scripted." Also cited is Mitchell's "Arab descent" as making him "politically vulnerable." Blumenthal told Clinton that any conversations she had with Netanyahu "flows directly and instantly back to top (U.S.) Jewish leadership."

Israeli leaders gush over Trump's Golan recognition, 'a Purim miracle'
Syria silent as US president says time to 'fully recognize Israel's sovereignty' over plateau; Lapid claims some credit; Bennett fears new demands; Palestinians warn of 'bloodshed'
Israel's leaders on Thursday welcomed US President Donald Trump's announcement that the time had come for the United States to "fully recognize" Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights, while the Palestinians warned the move would further destabilize the region and lead to bloodshed.
"After 52 years it is time for the United States to fully recognize Israel's Sovereignty over the Golan Heights, which is of critical strategic and security importance to the State of Israel and Regional Stability!" Trump tweeted.
There was no immediate reaction from Syria, which has long vowed to recover every inch of the Golan from Israel.
In Israel the move won widespread praise, but coming just weeks before Israel's elections, much of the reaction was framed by the campaign.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu led the praise of Trump, calling the move a "new Purim miracle."
Speaking at a press conference with US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, Netanyahu said Trump had "made history."
"I called him. I thanked him on behalf of the people of Israel. He did it again. First, he recognized Jerusalem as Israel's capital and moved the US embassy here. Then, he pulled out of the disastrous Iran treaty and re-imposed sanctions.
"But now he did something of equal historic importance - he recognized Israel's sovereignty over the Golan Heights, and he did so at a time when Iran is trying to use Syria as a platform to attack and destroy Israel. And the message that President Trump has given the world is that America stands by Israel."

Trump Says Time for US to Recognize Israeli Sovereignty Over Golan
WASHINGTON-President Donald Trump said on Thursday, March 21, it was time to back Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights that Israel seized from Syria in 1967, providing a boost to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in the middle of his re-election campaign. "After 52 years it is time for the United States to fully recognize Israel's Sovereignty over the Golan Heights, which is of critical strategic and security importance to the State of Israel and Regional Stability!" Trump wrote on Twitter. The recognition of the disputed area, seized by Israel in the Middle East war of 1967, would mark a major shift in U.S. policy a week before Netanyahu arrives in Washington to meet with Trump and address the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC).
It was the most overt move made yet by Trump to help Netanyahu, who faces an April 9 election. Trump remains popular in Israel, and his advisers have been developing a Middle East peace proposal for release sometime after the Israeli elections. Netanyahu has been pressing for the United States to recognize its claim to sovereignty over the Golan Heights. He thanked Trump for the gesture.
The prime minister had been expected to raise the issue with Trump during his visit to Washington next week, an Israeli official said. "At a time when Iran seeks to use Syria as a platform to destroy Israel, President Trump boldly recognizes Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights. Thank you President Trump! @realDonaldTrump," Netanyahu wrote in a tweet.
Israel's annexation of much of the Golan was not endorsed internationally. Netanyahu raised the possibility of U.S. recognition in his first White House meeting with Trump in February 2017. Netanyahu had tried to take White House national security adviser John Bolton to see the region during a January visit, but bad weather forced cancellation of the trip. The Golan announcement could help Trump improve his standing in America's pro-Israel camp, especially among his base of evangelical Christians, just ahead of next week's annual convention in Washington of AIPAC, the nation's most influential pro-Israel lobbying group.

It's time for US to fully recognize Israel's 'sovereignty' over disputed Golan Heights - Trump
US President Donald Trump has said that the time has come for the United States to "fully recognize" Israel's sovereignty over the disputed Golan Heights, seized from Syria during the Six-Day War in 1967.
In a tweet on Thursday, Trump said the Golan Heights are "of critical strategic and security importance to the State of Israel" and to "regional security." His decision will be seen as a diplomatic coup for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
The move comes after the US State Department dropped the word "occupied" in relation to the Golan Heights in its annual human rights report for 2018 last week. Responding on Twitter, Netanyahu thanked Trump for "boldly recognizing" Israel's sovereignty over the land.
Netanyahu had previously urged top US officials to make the declaration and he is expected to meet with Trump at the White House in the coming days.

Israel Has Full 'Freedom of Action' in Countering Iran in Syria - Netanyahu
Israel has previously conducted a series of airstrikes on Syrian territory, damaging its infrastructure under the pretext of fighting Iranian forces in the Arab Republic. Both Damascus and Iran have slammed the air raids, with the latter denying having a military presence except advisers in Syria.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reaffirmed the country's intention to fight the alleged entrenchment of Iranian forces in Syria, noting that Tel Aviv enjoys having "no limitation to freedom of action" in the Arab Republic, during his address on Israeli TV channels. The prime minister noted that such freedom of action is possible due to support from Washington.
He added that the topic of countering the alleged Iranian military presence in Syria will be one of the topics for discussion with US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo in Jerusalem.
The statement came ahead of Netanyahu's planned visit to the US later this week, with the situation in Syria being high on the agenda of the upcoming talks with President Donald Trump in wake of US troops' gradual withdrawal from the Arab Republic. Earlier in the day, the US president stated that a total of 400 US troops will remain in Syria, with 200 of them deployed at a location near Israel.
Israel conducted airstrikes on Syrian soil on multiple occasions, claiming to have hit Iranian military targets. One of the recent airstrikes led to the destruction of several buildings at Damascus International Airport.
Damascus and Tehran slammed the airstrikes, urging the international community to take steps to prevent further Israeli attacks. Iran denies having a military presence in the Arab Republic apart from advisers sent in at the request of Damascus and to help it fight terrorist groups.
Relations between Israel and Iran remain strained, as Tehran denies the Jewish state's right to exist and has repeatedly vowed to destroy it.

Meeting Pompeo, Netanyahu calls for recognition of Israeli Golan Heights
US secretary of state declares 'unparalleled commitment to Israel's security;' no meetings planned between Washington envoy and Palestinians
Meeting visiting US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on Wednesday, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called on the international community to recognize Israeli sovereignty over areas of the Golan Heights.
"Just last week we uncovered efforts by Hezbollah, an Iranian proxy, to build a military network in Syria, in the Golan Heights. All of you can imagine what would have happened if Israel were not in the Golan: We would have Iran on the shores of the Sea of Galilee," Netanyahu said at a joint press conference with Pompeo.
"I think, for this reason, and many more, it is time that the international community recognizes Israel's stay on the Golan, and the fact that the Golan will always remain part of the State of Israel."

AIPAC Is Coming to Town - Again! Yet Another Concession to Netanyahu Prior to Israel Elections
And the Israelis are having an election
The Trump Administration has delivered yet another concession to Israel's embattled Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on the eve of parliamentary elections: the Israeli military occupation of much of the Palestinian West Bank and of the Golan Heights will no longer be referred to in official U.S. government documents as an occupation. America's so-called Ambassador to Israel is a former Trump lawyer named David Friedman who is more involved in serving Israel than the United States. He personally supports the view that the illegal Jewish settlements are legitimately part of Israel, choosing to ignore their growth even though it has long been U.S. policy to oppose them. He has also long sought to change the State Department's language on the Israeli control of the West Bank and Golan Heights, being particularly concerned about the expression "occupied," which has legal implications. Now he appears to have won that fight, to the delight of the Netanyahu government.
And the expunging of "occupied" might be only the first of many gifts intended to bolster Netanyahu's chances. Senator Lindsey Graham, who also boasts of his close ties to the Israeli Prime Minister, intends to initiate legislative action to go one step further and compel the United States to actually recognize Israel's sovereignty over the Golan Heights, the Syrian territory that was annexed after fighting in 1967, but which has not been recognized as part of Israel by any other country or international body. If a vote on the bill is pushed forward and goes as expected virtually unanimously as the subject before congress is Israel, it would hugely benefit Bibi. Some sources are also predicting that recognition of the Golan Heights could easily lead to U.S. government recognition of Israel's sovereignty over much of the West Bank.
Israel's election is scheduled for April 9th, so there is still plenty of time for additional mischief. There have even been suggestions in the Israeli media that Netanyahu just might escalate fighting with any one or more of a number of its neighbors to enhance his wartime leader credentials. That Gaza will be pummeled is a certainty and Hezbollah in Lebanon and Syria is probably also in the gun-sights. An uncorroborated report last week out of Israel claimed that Hezbollah is operating a "terror cell" in Syria close to the border with Israel. It would serve as a pretext for a bit of military action and America's own congress-critters would immediately be jumping up and down expressing their support for Israel's right to "defend itself." The big prize for Netanyahu would, of course, be success at getting the United States to attack Iran and one can bet that Mossad is cranking up "false flag" plans to bring about such an eventuality while also making it look like the Mullahs were at fault.
Netanyahu, bedeviled by corruption charges against him, is otherwise sinking into his usual pre-election mode, which is to outflank nearly everyone on the intransigent right of Israeli politics. He has entered into a coalition with the openly racist Kahanist party Otzma Yehudit, which most Israelis consider to be close to a Jewish version of fascism as it advocates, among other policies, the forceful expulsion of all Arabs.
Benjamin Netanyahu is also looking for a boost through his attendance at the annual American Israel Political Action Committee (AIPAC) summit, which is being held in Washington from March 24-26. The theme of the conference is, unfortunately, "Connected for Good," which is clearly a boast by AIPAC rather than an admission of the shameful reality that has been delivered to the American people by a groveling and subservient congress and White House. Co-opting the United States is what it is all about, with the promotional material promising an "UNFORGETTABLE EXPERIENCE : The AIPAC Policy Conference is the largest gathering of America's pro-Israel community. The conference is a celebration of the U.S.-Israel partnership and the premier opportunity for every attendee to lobby their Congressional office to advance the U.S.-Israel relationship. The Policy Conference is also a rich educational experience and inspirational booster shot. Attendees will hear keynote speeches by American and Israeli leaders, attend intimate educational sessions, and be wowed by moving stories of U.S.-Israel partnerships, Israeli heroism, and groundbreaking Israeli innovations that are changing our world."

https://ahtribune.com/us/israelgate/2447-israeli-spying-on-trump.html
It is ironic that the Robert Mueller investigation into possible collusion between the Russian government and the Donald Trump campaign continues to turn up nothing while the evidence of Israeli interference in the U.S. political system continues to surface without any outrage being expressed by either the media or American politicians.
The most recent revelationconcerns a payment of $10,000 given to former Trump campaign advisor George Papadopoulos in an Israeli hotel room in July 2017. A self-described Israeli businessman named Charles Tawil provided the money at the meeting, which was set up after Tawil flew to the Greek island Mykonos, where he met Papadopoulos and invited him to come to Israel to discuss some possible business relating to an oil and gas project in the Aegean Sea. Papadopoulos had met Tawil through an Israeli "political strategist" David Ha'ivri, who is a hard-line Israeli settler with close ties to the government of Benjamin Netanyahu. Papadopoulos agree to do so, leaving his wife Simona in Greece.
///
Together the Papadopoulos and Flynn tales suggest that it was Israel, not Russia, that sought to both collude with and even spy on the Trump Administration, which should surprise no one. Unfortunately, in spite of the evidence, the possibility that the "interference" will ever be subject to any Congressional investigation remains extremely unlikely.

Pompeo to visit Israel, Lebanon, Kuwait to bolster anti-Iranian drive
While in Jerusalem, Pompeo is expected to meet with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, in spite of the close proximity of his visit to Israel's April 9th election.
US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo plans to push back against Iran's "maligned" regional interests by visiting Israel, Kuwait and Lebanon this week.
"In each of those places, [we have] a different mission set, but the common thing in each of those places is helping those countries bolster their efforts to push back against the Islamic Republic of Iran," Pompeo told Fox and Friends on Friday as he described his March 19-23 visit to the Middle East.
In a briefing with reporters in Washington, a senior State Department official said, "Obviously we have an overarching regional and trans-regional objective of constraining, throttling back, ultimately rolling back the malign adventures, influence, presence of Iran's forces."
The official added that this included their "proxy and associated forces throughout the region," such as in Lebanon, Syria, Iraq and Yemen.
While in Jerusalem, Pompeo is expected to meet with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, in spite of the close proximity of his visit to Israel's April 9 election.
Former US president Barack Obama had refused to meet with Netanyahu prior to the 2015 election so that he would not be seen as interfering with the Israeli election.
The Trump administration has not held that same view point, with US President Donald Trump also set to meet with Netanyahu in Washington at the end of the month.
The senior officials dismissed questions on the topic from reporters during the briefing.

Israel journalist facing trial for calling soldiers who beat Palestinians 'animals'
An Israeli journalist who called Israeli army soldiers "animals" for beating a Palestinian father and son in custody is to face trial.
Oshrat Kotler, a journalist with Israel's Channel 13, is to face trial on charges of incitement, incrimination of suspects, failure to grant a right of reply and more after she called several soldiers accused of beating two Palestinians in custody "human animals", the Jerusalem Post reported.
Speaking on the channel's news programme in February, Kotler said:
When you send your children to the [Israeli] army, they are kids. You send them to the [occupied Palestinian] territories, and they come back as human animals. This is the result of the occupation.
Her comments allegedly prompted complaints from thousands of viewers, as well as complaints to Israel's Press Council, an independent body established to safeguard press freedoms and outline journalism ethics. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu also responded to Kotler's comments, saying her words "deserve every condemnation" and that he is "proud of the [Israeli army] soldiers and loves them very much."
She now faces trial and will appear at a court hearing, though it is unclear when she will be summoned.

Q Research General #7308: Over The Target Edition
Pompeo Heads to Israel Ahead of Contested Election
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo is scheduled to head to Israel next week ahead of a contested Israeli election that is seen as no guarantee for longtime Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The timing of Pompeo's trip has generated much speculation about whether he is throwing the Trump administration's support behind Netanyahu as he is locked in the race of his political career, an election being followed closely across the Middle East as it could reshape the Jewish state's government at a critical juncture in the United States's regional fight to thwart Iran and its terrorist proxies.
Pompeo, State Department officials said, has no plan to wade into Israel's election, with sources saying his talks with Netanyahu and other senior Israeli diplomats will focus on the destabilizing role Hezbollah plays in Lebanon, another country Pompeo is slated to visit while in the region. With the Israeli elections heating up, Israel has experienced a rash of terrorist attacks in recent days, making Pompeo's appearance in the Jewish state all the more remarkable. Sources expect the secretary of state to affirm Israel's right to self defense and, in private meetings, discuss aiding the Israeli military's efforts to combat Hezbollah, which still asserts control in Lebanon. However, Pompeo is facing a tricky diplomatic hurdle during his trip: How to convince concerned Israeli leaders the United States is combatting Hezbollah at the same time is provides the Lebanese Armed Forces with weaponry (LAF), some of which has made its way to Hezbollah militants embedded in that fighting force.
"The secretary will meet with a range of senior Israeli officials," a senior State Department official, speaking only on background, told reporters. "We'll be talking about regional issues, obviously, discussing the challenges posed to the region, to Israel, to the United States by Iran and by Iranian proxies. The secretary will reaffirm both privately and publicly during that visit our unwavering commitment to Israel's security and its right to self-defense." Asked why Pompeo has chosen to arrive in Israel while the country's elections are unfolding, the State Department emphasized that U.S.-Israeli cooperation on various military situations cannot stop. "Obviously, in those discussions the secretary will be discussing quite directly the challenges posed by Iran, its illicit activities, its threatening behaviors, Lebanese Hizballah, their illicit activities and threatening behaviors, and how this all plays for a promising future-or against-for the people of Lebanon," the senior State Department official said.

Colluding in War Crimes: Britain's Unreported Military Alliance with Israel
The rapidly declining living conditions in the Gaza Strip and occupied territories has endangered the most basic of internationally recognised of human rights, as children continue to be collateral damage in what can be boiled down to a political standoff. The difference to almost all modern countries is that Israel uses extreme force to break the deadlock.
It is now sadly a fact that more children than Palestinian fighters are being killed in the offensive on Gaza by the state of Israel. This in itself should be shocking until you see the numbers. 28 per cent killed are five years and under, 92 per cent are sixteen and under with 8 per cent aged 17 and 18 - but still classed as minors. More babies aged under 24 months die than those aged over 16 years.
Then there are the incarcerations. The Isreali Information Centre for Human Rights in the Occupied Territories records them. It shows that in the ten years from 2008 to 2018 - a staggering 2,370 children have been sent to Israeli prisons. At the end of January 2019, 209 Palestinian children were held in Israeli prisons as security detainees and prisoners.
In January this year, the General Federation of Palestinian Trade Unions (PGFTU) warned that the poverty rate in the Gaza Strip has exceeded 80 per cent for the wider population. The numbers for mental health problems, access to health care or the basics such as access to clean water, electricity and sanitation are dire.
It shames Britain, that a country, ranked by the World Justice Project as the 8th most law-abiding country in the world actively supports a regime with weapons of death and destruction, described by organisations such as War on Want and the United Nations as an apartheid state. Others, including Human Rights Watch, accuse Israel of war crimes against defenceless Palestinians.
To enable that support, a media blackout is required in Britain. Here, Mark Curtis unravels the grizzly truth of Britain's involvement in this ghastly and illegal aggression and what is really going on behind the scenes.

Israeli war planes hit over 100 Hamas targets in the Gaza Strip in a night of strikes after two rockets were fired at Tel Aviv for the first time since the 2014 war, the IDF said.
The strikes came after an urgent late night consultation between Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his defense chiefs in Tel Aviv. "Decisions were taken," an Israeli official said without elaborating.
Shortly after the strikes began the IDF issued a statement saying the "Hamas terror group carried out the rocket fire." Hamas has denied it was behind the move.

In Israel normalising violence takes precedence over targeted assassinations
One outcome is certain when it comes to the forthcoming Israeli elections - Gaza will remain a top target for the new government. Amid the sparring between contenders for the elections, former IDF chief Benny Gantz declared he would implement Israel's policy of targeted assassinations against Hamas leaders if elected, and if necessary.
His comments sought to counter Education Minister Naftali Bennett's remarks over "Operation Protective Edge" in 2014, in which the latter used derogatory language to criticise Gantz's decisions which, according to Bennett, endangered the lives of Israeli soldiers. Bennett alleged that Gantz would be Hamas' preferable leadership option. This claim is also being supported by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who has stated that Gantz's party would make "significant concessions to the Palestinians."

Earlier in the day, Israeli media reported that at least two missiles had been fired from the Gaza Strip toward the Tel Aviv area and that air raid sirens were triggered in the city. The Israel Defence Forces (IDF) confirmed that air raid sirens in Tel Aviv had sounded for the first time since summer 2014.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has convened an urgent meeting with senior military officials in order to plan the response to the recent attack, AP reports.
Late on Thursday, two missiles were purportedly fired from Gaza. Local media reported that there were sounds similar to those of an explosion near Tel Aviv.
An Israeli military spokesman cited by Reuters said the incident was under investigation.
According to media reports, one rocket was intercepted by the anti-missile Iron Dome system, while another landed in an uninhabited area. There are no reports of injuries so far.

Q Research General #7267: AUTISTS SAVING THE WORLD Edition
Here's how AIPAC could lose its bipartisan status
The American Israeli Public Action Committee has managed to work with Democrats and Republicans alike. Will that change now that Israel has tacked to the right?
The American Israeli Public Action Committee, widely known as AIPAC, has managed to remain bipartisan for nearly 70 years. Its membership is divided roughly equally between Democrats and Republicans. Leaders from across the American political spectrum - everyone from Vice President Mike Pence to Sen. Kamala Harris - have spoken at the influential lobbying group's conferences.
But as a political scientist who teaches and writes about U.S. foreign policy and Middle East politics, I have been observing changing political landscapes within the United States and Israel. Growing competition between AIPAC and J Street, a relatively new pro-Israeli lobbying group, along with changes in how American Jews regard increasingly hardline and conservative Israeli policies, reflect a growing partisan split. I believe that ultimately these changes could make AIPAC's agenda more attractive to Republicans than to Democrats, with potentially significant consequences for American-Israeli relations.
Social welfare
AIPAC is a nonprofit that promotes close ties between the U.S. and Israeli governments. It lobbies members of Congress directly, organizes trips to Israel for legislators across party lines, and hosts an annual conference at which a prominent lineup of American and foreign leaders speak. The American Israel Education Foundation, a charity that operates as a branch of AIPAC, supports its educational activities and funds trips to Israel for lawmakers and what it calls "other political influentials."
Although he is campaigning for re-election and is slated to be indicted by Israel's attorney general for corruption, Benjamin Netanyahu will address attendees at AIPAC's upcoming annual conference in Washington that begins March 24. The Israeli settler leader Oded Revivi has told the Israeli media that he will also be on the roster, as has Benny Gantz - Netanyahu's rival in the upcoming elections.
One thing that AIPAC does not do, despite suggestions to the contrary, is directly finance political campaigns. Perhaps the confusion owes something to its name. The letters "P-A-C" typically signify that a group is a political action committee, or PAC, whose purpose is to raise campaign cash. The "PAC" in AIPAC is different. As a social welfare group, technically known as a 501(c)(4) organization under the tax code, it is primarily devoted to legislative advocacy through lobbying, activism and education.
AIPAC does, however, connect sympathetic candidates to a formidable base of donors, who may then contribute directly to political campaigns.
The U.S. is home to the world's largest Jewish population, estimated at 5.7 million as of 2010. It is an ideologically and politically diverse group and not uniformly represented by AIPAC. According to the group's own website, not all of the organization's 100,000 members are Jewish.

US report drops references to 'occupation' of Palestine, now it's 'Israeli-controlled'
In the latest annual global human rights report, the US has stopped using the term "occupied" when talking about areas of Palestine controlled by Israel, including the Golan Heights, the West Bank and Gaza.
In a report by the State Department intended to detail data regarding human rights around the globe in 2018, the US has decided to alter the words it uses to describe the situation in the Palestinian territories occupied by Israel, opting for what seems to be more neutral language.
This decision comes despite the fact that the word "occupation" is official terminology approved by the United Nations and how the US had formerly described the territories in question.
The administration said that the change in rhetoric does not imply any policy changes, but were otherwise unclear about their reasons for the new phrasing.
The report appears to reflect the sentiments of a meeting between Senator Lindsey Graham, US ambassador to Israel David Friedman and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday, where the three discussed plans to work towards US recognition of the Golan Heights as a part of Israel.
"Working with Senator [Ted] Cruz, I will start an effort to recognize the Golan as part of the State of Israel now and forever," Graham said in light of the meeting.
Last November, the US voted against a UN resolution condemning Israel's occupation of the Golan heights for the first time ever. The vote was 151 to 2, with the US and Israel the only opponents of the declaration.
Israel annexed the Golan Heights in 1981, a move condemned by the UN and rejected by the international community. UN Resolution 2334 calls Israeli settlement activity on the territory a "flagrant violation" of international law with "no legal validity."

Erdogan lashes out at Netanyahu as tyrant, child murderer
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has called Israeli premier Benjamin Netanyahu a "tyrant" who kills Palestinian children, as a heated war of words between the two officials continues.
"Hey Netanyahu, behave yourself. You are a tyrant, you are a tyrant who massacred seven-year-old Palestinian children," Erdogan told supporters in capital Ankara.
The remarks were a direct response to Netanyahu's attacks earlier in the day, who called the Turkish head of state a "dictator" and "a joke" who put journalists in jail.
The fiery exchanges began a day earlier, when Turkey denounced Netanyahu for his "blatant racism" against Arab Israelis after the rightist premier said the occupied Palestinian territories only belonged to the Jewish people and not all citizens.
"Turkey's dictator Erdogan attacks Israel's democracy while Turkish journalists and judges fill his prisons," Netanyahu wrote in an Instagram post. "What a joke!"
In his remarks on Wednesday, Erdogan pointed to Israel's ongoing violent crackdown on Palestinians in Jerusalem al-Quds, denouncing Israeli security forces for entering a "holy place."
"Do not provoke. Look, we have not oppressed any of the Jews in this country. We have not done anything you did to any synagogues here. Don't provoke us. We will not fall into this trap," he warned Netanyahu.
Ibrahim Kalin, Erdogan's spokesman, also reacted to Netanyahu's attacks, saying the Israeli PM was mad at Erdogan "for exposing him.
"The apartheid state he leads occupies Palestinian lands, kills women & children & imprisons Palestinians in their own land," he wrote. "Lies and pressure will not hide your crimes."
Meanwhile, Turkish Presidency Communications Director Fahrettin Altun also lashed out on Wednesday at remarks by Israel's prime minister targeting the Turkish leader.
"Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results," Altun said, referring to a well-known quote from renowned scientist Albert Einstein.

Benjamin Netanyahu Is Considering Legalizing Weed to Court Voters
By Ivan Levingston
March 12, 2019, 8:47 AM EDT Updated on March 12, 2019, 11:25 AM EDT
Benjamin Netanyahu is reaching out for the stoner vote.
The Israeli prime minister said he's looking into legalizing cannabis in an interview Monday on his Likud party's Facebook newscast. He's weighing embracing pot as polls show the new Zehut party that supports marijuana legalization gaining steam.
Medical cannabis stocks surged.
Young voters have voiced support for Zehut, particularly after Green Leaf, a perennial pro-legalization contender that never made it into parliament, sat out April 9 elections. Zehut appears to be grazing the electoral threshold, but if it doesn't get in, the lost votes could cost the prime minister's right-wing bloc parliamentary seats.
Netanyahu is in a tight race with the Blue & White bloc led by former military chief Benny Gantz as criminal charges threaten the prime minister. Israel's attorney general announced last month that he intends to charge Netanyahu with bribery, fraud and breach of trust, pending a hearing where he can plead his case.
Israel's local cannabis industry has been blooming, with the government approving medical cannabis exports this January. Officials have estimated exports could bring in as much as 1 billion shekels ($276 million) a year in tax revenue.

Netanyahu: Sending Money to Hamas Key to Keeping Palestinians Divided
Says those against Palestinian statehood should be for funding Hamas
Likud officials are reporting that during a Monday meeting, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu argued in favor of continuing to allow funding to be transferred to Hamas, arguing that it is the bes way to keep the Palestinians divided.
This seems to fall neatly into the category of Israeli policies that have fairly obviously been in place, but which officials don't publicly talk about. With the election looming, Netanyahu is increasingly frank about his efforts to undercut Palestinian statehood, and his conviction that Israeli is not a state for all of its people, but only for Jews.
Indeed, Netanyahu argued in this case that those opposed to Palestinian statehood should be in favor of continuing to fund Hamas, as it keeps them and the Palestinian Authority divided. This division is often cited by Israel as a reason Palestine can't exist.
Palestinian division is not something Israel just sort of favors, but rather something that's been pursued as formal policy for decades. Indeed, the early groundwork in founding Hamas was heavily lain by Israel themselves, with an eye toward splitting the Palestinians along secularist and Islamist lines.
This is a major reason why every international attempt at Palestinian unity, and talk of a Hamas-Fatah rapprochement with free elections in the occupied territories is met with Israeli opposition. It's not, as officials would claim, that Hamas is untrustworthy. Rather, it is that if Hamas is part of a united Palestine, they aren't doing the job Israel created them for.

Gantz: We're willing to sit in government with 'anyone Jewish and Zionist'
Blue and White leader appears to rule out future coalition with Arab parties; calls on Netanyahu to resign, as pre-trial hearing scheduled to be held before July
Blue and White leader Benny Gantz on Monday said he was open to sitting in a coalition with "anyone Jewish and Zionist," apparently ruling out non-Jewish minorities as potential partners.
Speaking to a crowd of some 500 people in the southern city of Beersheba - and facing questions from the public for the first time - Gantz also called on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to resign over the mounting corruption allegations against him.
The former IDF chief of staff discussed the prospects of future coalition partnerships as Netanyahu faced accusations of racism for suggesting that Arab Israelis have no place in Israel's government.

Netanyahu: Israel is the state of 'Jewish people alone'
JERUSALEM - Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says Israel is the homeland "only of the Jewish people," in a new jab at the country's Arab minority ahead of April's election. Netanyahu on Sunday addressed "slightly confused people" after an Israeli celebrity defended the rights of Israel's Arab population. Arabs comprise about 20 percent of Israel's 9 million residents. They have full citizenship rights but have faced decades of discrimination.
On Saturday, actress Rotem Sela denounced Netanyahu's frequent talking point that his political rival will form a government with Arab political parties. "When the hell will someone in this government tell the public that Israel is a country of all its citizens," Sela wrote on Instagram. Netanyahu responded: Israel "is the national state, not of all its citizens, but only of the Jewish people."

The movie star spoke out after the prime minister criticized Israeli television presenter Rotem Sela for expressing solidarity with Arab-Israelis and arguing that Israel is a country "for all its citizens."
Netanyahu later issued a rebuke of Sela's comments, stating that "Israel is not a state of all its citizens. According to the Nation-State Law that we passed, Israel is the nation-state of the Jewish people, and them alone."
"Love thy neighbor as thyself," Gadot wrote in Hebrew. "It's not an issue of Right or Left, Jew or Arab, secular or religious. It's an issue of dialogue, of dialogue for peace, for equality, for tolerance between one another."
Gadot added that the "responsibility to grow hope and light for a better future for our children is on us. Rotem, my sister, you are an inspiration to us all."

Trump says he'd poll at 98 percent if he ran to be Israel's prime minister: report
President Trump reportedly told a group of Republican National Committee donors on Friday night that he'd poll at 98 percent if he ran be Israel's next prime minister.
Axios, citing three unnamed sources who heard Trump's comments, reported Sunday that the president made the statement while speaking to a group of RNC donors at Mar-a-Lago.
The news outlet reported that security guards required attendees to place their cell phones in magnetized pouches to prevent possible leaks of Trump's speech.
The three sources told Axios that Trump discussed a range of matters during his speech and drew laughter from the audience on a number of topics. Trump reportedly highlighted how much his administration has done for Israel, pointing to the decision to move the U.S. embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.
He later claimed that he'd received widespread support if he ran for Israel's prime minister position. Benjamin Netanyahu has served as prime minister since 2009. Elections for the next Knesset session will be held next month.
Trump also reportedly took aim at Democrats during his speech, allegedly saying that he didn't understand how any Jewish person could vote for a Democrat.
"The Democrats hate Jewish people," Trump allegedly said when discussing the controversy surrounding Rep. Ilhan Omar's (D-Minn.) comments about Israel and the Democratic Party's response.
The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment from The Hill on Trump's alleged comments.

Israel hammers Gaza for 3rd night in 'vigorous response' ordered by Netanyahu
Israel continues to pound Hamas targets in retaliation for cross-border attacks from Gaza, as the IDF carries out a "very vigorous response" against the militants, ordered by the Prime Minister as he gears up for his re-election.
IDF fighter jets and other aircraft struck several Hamas targets, including a military compound in the north of the strip and two naval vessels belonging to the group, the army said in a statement. There were no immediate reports of Palestinian casualties from the strikes which occurred at around 1:30am local time on Sunday.
The military said the raids, carried out for a third night in a row, was launched in response to mortar shell attack in southern Israel on Saturday night, as well as "continuing terror activities from the Strip, including balloon explosives" in the last several days.
Reiterating that Hamas bears responsibility for everything that goes on inside the Gaza Strip, the IDF vowed to act "vigorously" against any attacks or provocation, a day after thousands of Palestinians marked the 50th week of the Great Return March protests.
Cross-border tensions along the border fence have witnessed an uptick ahead of the Knesset elections on April 9, prompting Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to take a decisive stand this week. "Hamas must understand that [the IDF] will respond to any manifestation of aggression with double the force," the Prime Minister explained on Thursday, vowing a "very vigorous response" from Israel.

Netanyahu's Re-Election Chances Will Determine Whether He Starts War With Syria
Syria and its allies are preparing their missiles for a forthcoming battle with Israel if Tel Aviv decides to open fire against significant military positions under the control of the Syrian army.
Well informed sources say that "it all depends on the direction the Israeli elections will take. If Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu estimates his chances are high enough to win a second term, then he will not venture any time soon into a new confrontation with Syria and its allies. The date of the next battle will be postponed." The sources further told me, "But, if he believes he will lose the election, then the possibility of his initiating a battle becomes very high."
The sources explained: "A serious battle between Israel on one hand and Syria and Iran on the other would be sufficient enough to postpone the elections. Netanyahu doesn't have many choices: either he wins the election and postpones the corruption court case against him, or he goes to jail".
US European Command (EUCOM) recently send military airplanes, along with 200 US servicemen carrying THAAD anti-ballistic missile defense systems to be deployed in southern Israel. The official reason for deployment of this very modern and sophisticated system is said to be preparation for a joint drill between Israel and the US.
THAAD will enhance the already existing Israeli anti-missile interception defense systems. These are "Iron Dome" for short-range, "David Sling" for tactical missiles and "The Arrow" for intercontinental ballistic missiles.
The sources said: "The US doesn't trust the Israeli system, and thus the THAAD system was deployed to hunt down any missiles launched by the Syrian or Iranian forces deployed in Syria as these promised in case of a battle triggered and provoked by Netanyahu. Both Syria and Iran promised immediate retaliation if Israel bombs any significant military positions in those countries. This is why the US has decided to take part in this confrontation, convinced that any future battle will be devastating for all parties".

Israeli Navy Ready To Block Iranian Oil Transit, US-backed Forces Starve Refugees In Syria
Hay'at Tahrir al-Sham will continue its attacks on the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) and Russian forces around Idlib province, a spokesman for the terrorist group said in an official video message released on March 6. Abu Khalid al-Shami threatened that the SAA and Russian forces with "long dark nights" and "black days stained with blood."
This statement came in response to a recent resumption of SAA strikes on terror infrastructure of Hayat Tahrir al-Sham and its allies in the province.
An acute humanitarian crisis is developing in the Rukban refugee camp, which is located near the US military garrison in al-Tanf. On March 5, the Russian Defense Ministry released satellite images showing the real living conditions in the camp.
A waste deposit is located in close proximity to the living accommodations.
A notable part of the camp is tents and sheds, which means that no conditions allowing a permanent residence of thousands of people have been created.
No subsistence warehouses or meal stations are being observed.
Food and other goods can be get only in pop-up markets controlled by militants.
The Russian military said that US-backed forces are preventing civilians from leaving the site. It stressed that the Rukban area is no more a refugee camp. It is a reservation area with hostages.
The Russian side pointed out that the US military is opposing to the evacuation of civilians and spreading rumors that they will be persecuted by the Damascus government. US-backed militants demand notable sums in USD from people who want to leave the camp.
The statement added that about 35,000 people have declared their readiness to return to the government-controlled part of the country.
Earlier in March, Deputy Spokesperson of the US State Department said that Washington is against the Syrian-Russian plan to evacuate people from the area because it does not meet "protection standards". Nonetheless, he did not point out what standards are being met by the living conditions created for refugees by US-backed forces in Rukban.
On March 6, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu threatened to deploy Israeli warships to help tackle suspected Iranian efforts to continue export oil via maritime routes to skirt US sanctions. Netanyahu stressed that Israeli sailors are well-trained and adept at carrying out sea missions against adversaries. However, he failed to explain how a relatively small Israeli naval force is going to block maritime routes used by Iran. Most likely, the Israeli Prime Minister expects that in the event of a naval confrontation with Iran, the Israeli force will be directly supported by the US Navy. This would explain where Israel is going to find resources to achieve a victory in a supposed standoff.
While this kind of statements are a common practice for Israeli politicians exploiting tensions with Iran to score some political points, they also show that Israel may have been planning to expand its military actions against Iranian and Iranian backed forces outside the Syrian battleground.

Gaza Needs 'More Than Statements' from UN to Stop Israeli Violence - Historian
The UN High Commissioner for Human Rights reproached Tel Aviv's response to a UN report last week that found Israel had breached the human rights of Gazans in its response to protests there. However, a historian and activist told Sputnik Wednesday that ending Palestinian suffering requires action, not tepid statements.
Sputnik reported last week that the UN Commission of Inquiry's February 28 report found that, by using live ammunition to suppress the Great March of Return protests on the border between Gaza and Israel, Tel Aviv gave the Human Rights Council "reasonable grounds to believe that... Israeli soldiers committed violations of international human rights and humanitarian law."
Tel Aviv blasted the commission's findings, with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu saying, "The council is setting new records for hypocrisy and mendacity out of an obsessive hatred of Israel, the only democracy in the Middle East."
This prompted UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Michelle Bachelet to tell the UN Human Rights Council at a meeting in Geneva, Switzerland, Wednesday, that she was "disappointed to see the immediate dismissal of that report by Israel, without addressing any of the very serious issues raised. All parties concerned should exercise restraint as the date of 30 March approaches."
March 30 is known to Palestinians as Land Day, commemorating a mass strike that occurred in 1976 in response to the Israeli government's plan to expropriate roughly 5,000 acres of mostly Palestinian-owned farmland in Galilee. Six Palestinians were killed by Israeli police in those protests, according to the New York Times.
The Great March of Return protests began in Gaza on Land Day 2018, only the latest in what have become nearly annual protests on that day, although these have continued up to the present.

Netanyahu declares Al-Aqsa TV channel terrorist organisation
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu signed a decree yesterday declaring Palestinian Al-Aqsa TV a terrorist organisation, claiming it is used by Hamas to recruit terror groups, Israeli media reported.
"This decision comes at the recommendation of the Shin Bet and the Defense Ministry's National Bureau for Counter Terror Financing, after the Shin Bet revealed terror group Hamas' use of the satellite channel 'Al-Aqsa' to recruit operatives," a statement issued by his office said.
In February, Shin Bet claimed that the channel's broadcasters use quotes from the Quran or subtle language as gestures to recruit Hamas operatives in the occupied West Bank and Jerusalem.
Israeli warplanes have targeted and destroyed Al-Aqsa TV and Radio several times since 2000, when they were firstly launched after years of being banned by the Palestinian Authority.
In November 2018, Israeli warplanes bombed the channel's headquarters in central Gaza City over claims of incitement against Israeli citizens. The channel was forced off air as a result.
"Netanyahu's decision against the Al-Aqsa channel is aimed to encourage the targeting of media institutions and an attempt to demonise and prevent the sending of the messages to the world and to suppress our story and narrative," the channel said in a statement in response to the Israeli measure.
In 2010, the United States blacklisted Al-Aqsa TV over claims of incitement against Israeli citizens.
All Palestinian media unions condemned the Israeli decision with the Journalists' Club saying: "Al-Aqsa works to disclose the daily Israeli aggressions against Palestinians at a time when Israel does not want this to be reported to the world."
"Israel declared it a terrorist group in an attempt to suppress its voice, which is the voice of all the Palestinians who are subject to Israeli brutality and barbarism."

For the anon asking if there was any new reports re: Iran.
Here's the latest from one sauce.
Iran bypassing sanctions, secretly smuggling oil, Netanyahu claims
PM calls on international community to block Tehran's attempts to skirt restrictions, tours US deployment of advanced anti-missile system in Israel
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Wednesday accused Iran of secretly smuggling oil to get past economic sanctions, and called on the international community to take action against the activity.
"Iran is trying to bypass the sanctions on it through the covert smuggling of petroleum via the sea," the prime minister said at a graduation ceremony for an Israeli Navy cadets course, held at the Haifa naval base. "As these attempts expand, the navy will have a more important role in efforts to block these Iranian actions.
"I call on the international community to halt, by any means, Iran's attempts to bypass the sanctions via the sea," Netanyahu said.
Israel, he added, constantly carries out sea-based operations against its enemies, "most of [which] are unknown."
Last May the US pulled out of the landmark 2015 nuclear deal that saw stiff economic sanctions on Iran lifted in return for the dismantling of the weapons-capable elements of its nuclear development program. US President Donald Trump has said the deal, known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, doesn't go far enough in preventing Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons and does not restrict the Iranian missile development program.
Although the other parties to the deal - Britain, France, Russia, China, and Germany - are working to keep the pact alive with Iran, the US reimposed strict sanctions and Iran's economy has suffered, with rising inflation and a devaluation of its rial currency.
In his remarks at the base, Netanyahu also revealed that US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, along with the leaders of Cyprus and Greece, will arrive in Israel in the coming days to advance a gas pipeline project that would supply Europe with natural gas from Israel's offshore fields. "The navy will also protect this pipeline," he said.
Earlier Wednesday Netanyahu toured an advanced US anti-missile system deployed in Israel as part of a military exercise, declaring that the presence of system was evidence of the strength of the military bond between the US and Israel.
He was accompanied on the visit by American ambassador David Friedman, the US Embassy said in a statement.
"The two officials received a briefing from the commanders in the field, and held a tour at the site," the embassy said.
"This is a testament to the strength of the alliance between Israel and the United States. It's never been stronger, and the coalition for common defense that is expressed here, not merely in expressed intentions, but in actual forces on the ground - I think is remarkable," Netanyahu said. "So we're very, very happy with the cooperation and with the American commitment often expressed by President Trump to Israel's security."
The Terminal High Altitude Area Defense system, known as THAAD, was deployed earlier this month as part of a joint exercise with Israeli forces and to practice deployment of the system, considered one of the most advance in the world, at different locations around the globe. It was the first time the system had been brought to Israel.
Friedman said it showed "the incredibly close and important cooperation between Israel and the United States."
"This is an outstanding example of how the American forces have made a commitment to Israel's safety and security," he said. "They've done this in many other ways, but I can't think of a better single example than what we are looking at right now. It's a testament to the really unbreakable bound between Israel and the United States on so many different levels - including of course, most importantly, mutual safety and security."
Netanyahu also used the visit to take a selfie photo with US troops operating the THAAD system, and then posted the image to his Twitter feed along with a poke at Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit, who last month forbade the prime minister from taking election campaign photos with Israeli troops.
"I took a photo with soldiers... Americans," Netanyahu tweeted. "The alliance between the US and Israel is stronger than ever."

Netanyahu wants the US to attack Iran; latest fact less claim
Netanyahu: Iran resorts to oil smuggling by sea to evade U.S. sanctions There was no immediate response from Tehran.
Israel's navy could take action against Iranian oil smuggling, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Wednesday, urging world powers to foil any effort by Tehran to evade US sanctions.
The Israeli leader told naval officers that Iran was still resorting to clandestine measures to ship fuel that it first used prior to a 2015 nuclear deal easing Western sanctions on its oil sector.
US President Donald Trump last year quit the nuclear deal and reimposed some sanctions, aiming to cut Iran's oil exports to zero.
"Iran is trying to circumvent the sanctions through covert oil smuggling over maritime routes, and to the extent that these attempts widen, the navy will have a more important role in blocking these Iranian actions," Netanyahu said.
"I call on the entire international community to stop Iran's attempts to circumvent the sanctions by sea, and of course, by any (other) means."
It was not clear how Israel would stop such shipping activities or whether it would risk direct confrontation at sea with Iranian vessels. The Israeli navy, whose largest vessels are missile corvettes and a small submarine fleet, is mostly active in the Mediterranean and Red seas.
According to maritime experts, Iranian oil smuggling methods have included changing the names of ships or flag registries, switching off location transponders on ships and conducting ship-to-ship transfers offshore and away from large trade hubs.
There was no immediate response from Tehran.

New poll: Americans' support for Israel declines to lowest point in a decade
WASHINGTON - Support for Israel in the American public is at its lowest point in a decade, according new Gallup poll released Wednesday, with a whopping decline among self-identified Republicans who said they sympathized more with Israelis than Palestinians.
Whereas 65 percent of Americans said they were "more sympathetic" to Israel over the Palestinians in 2018, 59% said the same in 2019, marking a six point drop. That decline is the biggest over a one-year period in the history of the poll, which began in 2001. The number of Americans who said they sympathized more with the Palestinian, however, went unchanged over the last year, remaining at 21 percent.
The 2019 survey found that the decline in sympathy for Israel extended to both Democrats and Republicans. While support for Israel among Democrats dropped by 6%, Republican support declined by 13%, a staggering figure in light of Republican President Donald Trump's cultivation of an intensely close relationship with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
"The percentage of Republicans saying they sympathize more with Israel in the conflict fell from an all-time high of 87% in 2018 to 76% today," the poll said.
The percentage of people who identified as political independents remained the same over the last year, with 60% sympathizing more with Israel.
Last year's survey came as the administration was preparing to relocate the US embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, which infuriated Palestinians.

Since Trump officially recognized Jerusalem as Israel's capital in December 2017, and subsequently moved the embassy there, Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas has refused to engage with the White House, which he said had compromised its ability to act as an honest mediator in any negotiations.
In ostensible retaliation for the Palestinians refusal to work with Trump's diplomatic team, which has been trying to broker an Israeli-Palestinian peace accord, and in order to exact pressure to return them to the negotiating table, Trump cut American aid to the PA, the East Jerusalem Hospital Network, and even Israeli-Palestinian coexistence agencies.
The dip in American sympathy for Israel notwithstanding, the vast majority of Americans still hold a favorable view of Israel. Sixty-nine percent of the respondents said they favored Israel over the Palestinian Authority, while just 21% said they preferred the latter.
Gallup's survey interviewed 1,016 adults from February 1 to 10; it has a margin of error of plus or minus 4 percentage points.
The poll was conducted amid an intense controversy regarding the US-Israel relationship in Congress. It occurred shortly after freshman Congresswoman Ilhan Omar apologized for having insinuated that wealthy American Jews paid politicians to be pro-Israel (through the machinery of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, or AIPAC).

The checks to Mr. Cohen were sent on a more or less monthly basis throughout 2017, Mr. Trump's first year in office. Mr. Cohen provided two checks to the House committee last week and his lawyer, Lanny J. Davis, provided the additional six checks to The Times this week. Mr. Cohen's team said it was searching for three others.
Of the eight checks now available, seven were for $35,000 and another was for $70,000 to cover two months' worth of payments. Six were signed by Mr. Trump himself while he was president and the other two were signed by his eldest son, Donald Trump Jr., and his company's chief financial officer, Allen Weisselberg.
Altogether, Mr. Trump or his trust paid Mr. Cohen $420,000, according to federal prosecutors. Of that, $130,000 was to reimburse payments made shortly before the 2016 election to Ms. Daniels, whose legal name is Stephanie Clifford, so she would not tell her story. Another $50,000 was for Mr. Cohen's effort to manipulate online polls to inflate Mr. Trump's reputation as a businessman.
That $180,000 was then "grossed up" with another $180,000 to offset taxes that Mr. Cohen would have to pay on the original money since it was being treated as income. Another $60,000 was added as a "bonus," prosecutors have said.
On May 23, the president signed a personal check on the same day he was overseas meeting with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel in Jerusalem and President Mahmoud Abbas of the Palestinian Authority in Bethlehem, before flying that night to Rome.
After the Oct. 18 check came one on Nov. 21, just two days before Thanksgiving when Mr. Trump pardoned a turkey, saying, "I feel so good about myself," and then defended Roy S. Moore, the Republican Senate candidate in Alabama who had been accused of sexual misconduct with teenage girls. Mr. Trump also spoke by telephone that day with President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia.
The last check made public was signed on Dec. 5, the same day that Mr. Trump called Mr. Netanyahu, Mr. Abbas and Arab leaders to tell them that he had decided to move the American Embassy to Jerusalem.

Ilhan Omar Has a Point
In early 2015, as the Obama administration was deep into negotiations with Iran over its nuclear program, Republican House Speaker John Boehner invited Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who stridently opposed the deal, to address a joint session of Congress. The speech itself, which was intended to convince Congress to scuttle the agreement, turned out to be a dud. Instead of shaming Democrats into opposing the deal, Bibi seemed to unify them in support of it. But the public spectacle of a foreign leader attempting to undermine the American president on U.S. soil at the request of his political adversaries was symbolically striking. Later, polling would show that GOP voters generally felt more warmly about Netanyahu than their actual commander in chief. "Republicans haven't just rejected Obama. They have adopted Netanyahu as their leader," Slate's Will Saletan wrote at the time.
"Does a majority of the Republican Party identify more with Israeli interests than with American interests?" he continued. "When Israel's prime minister speaks on the floor of Congress, do Republicans feel more allegiance to him than to their president? If so, will the feeling subside once Obama leaves office? Or does it signify an enduring rift in the fabric of this country?"
I've found myself thinking about Netanyahu's speech, and its troubling optics, again this week in light of the most recent fury over Rep. Ilhan Omar, who for the second time in a month has stumbled into a controversy over anti-Semitism and Israel.
Back in February, the freshman from Minnesota, who is one of the first two Muslim women ever elected to Congress, issued a public apology after being widely criticized for tweeting that U.S. support for the Jewish state was "all about the Benjamins baby"-a comment that, even if unintentionally, pretty bluntly evoked well-worn stereotypes about Jewish influence and money in politics. "Anti-Semitism is real and I am grateful for Jewish allies and colleagues who are educating me on the painful history of anti-Semitic tropes," Omar wrote amid the backlash. But at a bookstore event in Washington last week, she managed to kick the outrage cycle back into gear. After telling the crowd that critics were accusing her of anti-Semitism in order to snuff out debate about Israel's human rights record, she said, "I want to talk about the political influence in this country that says it is OK for people to push for allegiance to a foreign country."

Israel today closed Gaza's main commercial crossing to all good except fuel, local sources reported.
Israel has increased its targeting of the besieged Gaza Strip over the past few days, striking sites in the enclave causing damage to property.
It claims the closure of the Kerem Shalom (Karm Abu Salem) crossing is in response what it calls incendiary balloons which exploded in the air and caused no damage to Israel yesterday.
Occupation forces regularly block access to the Gaza crossings as a means of controlling the Palestinian population. In July Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Kerem Shalom would be closed if kite and balloon launchers continued with their activity.
Gaza ran out of cooking gas as a result of the Israeli closure of the crossing days later.

Q Research General #7060: Racist Left Edition
Israel Is an Extremist Enterprise
Benjamin Netanyahu's pact with a far-right, anti-Arab party ahead of April's elections is repugnant. But it's in keeping with a state that has racism and exclusion baked into its foundation.
In preparation for April elections, Israeli prime minister and right-wing icon Benjamin Netanyahu has sought to increase his chances of forming a majority government by finagling a merger of extremist party Otzma Yehudit - Jewish Power - with Jewish Home, another far-right party whose ideology is more palatable to mainstream opinion.
Otzma Yehudit subscribes to the worldview of Meir Kahane, the New York-born rabbi - assassinated in 1990 - whose movement was banned from Israeli politics in the 1980s and classified as a terrorist group in the United States. Among the many charming ideas inherited from Kahane are that the occupied Palestinian territories should be annexed to Israel and Palestinians should be expelled.
The New York Times notes that Netanyahu has "enraged Jewish leaders in Israel and the United States by striking a bargain with a racist anti-Arab party whose ideology was likened by one influential rabbi to Nazism." And it's not just the usual liberal Zionists wringing their hands at the perceived sullying of Israel's image.
AIPAC - pillar of the Israel lobby in the United States - retweeted a condemnation of Otzma Yehudit by the American Jewish Committee, seconding the conviction that the party is "racist and reprehensible." (This didn't stop AIPAC from tweeting the very next day that it was "honored to announce" Netanyahu's impending attendance as a speaker at its 2019 policy conference.) Jonathan Greenblatt, CEO of the Zionist Anti-Defamation League (ADL), also took to Twitter to lament that the Otzma Yehudit leaders and their "hate-filled rhetoric" were "being legitimized" by the Jewish Home-Jewish Power union: "There should be no room for racism & no accommodation for intolerance in Israel or any democracy."But while the ostensibly antiracist uproar no doubt comes off as noble, the fact is that Israel is fundamentally a racist and anti-Arab state that has carried out an uninterrupted flow of reprehensible behavior.
Where, pray tell, are all of the concerned curators of Brand Israel when the country opts to undertake one of its regular bouts of slaughter in the Gaza Strip? Where are the paeans to tolerance and democracy when Israeli Arabs are deemed second-class citizens and non-Israeli ones are treated as either terrorists or collateral damage?
Over at Bloomberg, neocon Eli Lake moans that Jewish Power "embraces [Kahane's] policy of ethnic cleansing" and that "one of its leaders holds a party every year at the grave of the Jewish terrorist Baruch Goldstein, who murdered 29 Palestinian civilians in 1994." But as Israeli historian Ilan Pappé demonstrates in The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine, that particular "policy" is Israel's MO. And while the Goldstein massacre certainly qualifies as terrorism, it would seem that plenty of other episodes in recent Israeli history do, too - like the 2014 Israeli military murder of 2,251 Palestinians in Gaza, including 229 women and 551 children.

Normalization of ties with Israel contradicts Islamic teachings: Houthi
The leader of Yemen's Houthi Ansarullah movement has vehemently condemned attempts by a number of Arab states and Persian Gulf kingdoms to normalize diplomatic relations with the Israeli regime, stressing that such efforts are in blatant contradiction to teachings of Islam.
Delivering a televised speech broadcast live from the Yemeni capital Sana'a on Sunday afternoon, Abdul-Malik al-Houthi said, "The Israeli regime is a partner to the ongoing military aggression against Yemen. Their hostility toward Yemen is intensely reflected in their media reports. The administration of (Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin) Netanyahu is complicit in this onslaught."
He added, "The scandalous Warsaw Conference – an international gathering organized by Washington in the Polish capital on February 13-14 – was, in fact, a declaration of normalization and partnership with Israel.
"There can be no normalization and relations with the Israeli enemy unless at the expense of the Palestinian cause and recognition of (Tel Aviv regime's) occupation."
The Ansarullah leader further pointed out that normalization of relations with the Tel Aviv regime will pave the way for Americans and Israelis to advance their projects in the Middle East region.
"Occupation of any part of the Muslim world is a bid to target Muslims. Normalization of ties with the Israeli enemy amounts to opposition to all those who are at odds with the Tel Aviv regime. Such normalization runs contrary to the teachings of Islam," Houthi highlighted.
Houthi's remarks came amid reports denoting that Israel and several Arab states have had secret contacts for years, and the two sides have stepped up their attempts to bring their clandestine relations out in the open.
The Israeli regime recently re-launched a "virtual embassy" in a bid to "promote dialogue" with the Persian Gulf Arab states.

Netanyahu: Israel And Russia Will Work To Remove All Foreign Forces From Syria
Israel and Russia will work through a joint group to remove all foreign forces from Syria, Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on March 3 at the weekly cabinet meeting.
"President Putin and I also agreed on a shared goal - the removal from Syria of the foreign forces that came in after the civil war erupted ... We agreed to set up a joint task force which, together with others, will work to advance towards this goal," Reuters quoted the Israeli PM as saying.
Despite the agreement with Russia, Netanyahu stressed that his country will continue to work against Iranian forces in Syria. Israel carried out hundreds of airstrikes on the war-torn country in the last eight years under this pretext.
"I made it unequivocally clear that Israel will not allow Iranian military entrenchment in Syria, and I made unequivocally clear that we will continue to militarily act against it," Netanyahu told his cabinet, according to the Jerusalem Post.
Last week, Netanyahu visited Moscow and held extensive talks on Syria with President Vladimir Putin. This was the first face-to-face meeting between the two leaders had since the downing of the Russian intelligence plane over Syria in September.
Following the meeting, Putin revealed that the two countries are working to establish a working group with the aim of normalizing the situation in Syria after the defeat of the terrorists there.
"The idea is that with all interested parties, first of all, of course, the leadership of the Syrian Arab Republic, it may be the opposition, these are countries of the region, everyone who is involved in this conflict," Putin said back then.
While Tel Aviv sees the withdrawal of Iranian forces from Syria as a top priority, Moscow and Damascus consider the presence of Iranian personnel in the country as a legal move because they are deployed under request from the Syrian government.
Furthermore, Damascus and Teheran are being engaged in a deep military technological cooperation. This means that the joint group is not likely achieve the withdrawal of all or at least any foreign forces. On the other hand, the group may become a useful tool to de-escalate the situation between powers involved in the conflict and to start working on some compromise decision on the settlement of the conflict.

The cloud security company Adallom founded by two Israeli's, Adam Rappaport and Ami Luttwak, was purchased by Microsoft. Rappaport served in the IDF's elite 8200 Intelligence Unit where he reached the rank of captain. He is a graduate of the IDF's Talpiot program and has a degree in computer science from Technion. Technion is the Israel Institute of Technology in Haifa.
The Jewish-American oligarch Sheldon Adelson poured millions of dollars into universities in Israel. What a strange thought. Americans dump millions of dollars on Adelson-owned casinos and a lot of that money is transferred to Israel. Sheldon Adelson practically runs Israel's high tech sector investing $16 million into Israel's space program. When President Trump announced America's new space command? Will Israel have access to the technology being developed for this space command as Israel builds its space technology for its moon missions? CounterPunch even did an article in February, 2015 suggesting Sheldon Adelson is the real ruler of Israel and not Benjamin Netanyahu. Sheldon Adelson's stepdaughter, Yasmin Lukatz, is also involved in networking between Israel and the US to increase investment into Israel's high tech start-ups.
The Adelson School of Entrepreneurship (ASE) at IDC Herzliya
What kind of connections does the oligarch Adelson have to make such large money transfers seem relatively easy? It is more than likely the reason why Sheldon Adelson opposed the nomination of Chuck Hagel to head the Department of Defense was because Chuck Hagel was aware of this massive transfer of technology to Israel. Not only technology transfers to make Israel the "start-up nation", but millions and millions of dollars pouring out of America to Israel by private equity firms run by Jewish-Americans.
Chuck Hagel would know, he co-founded Vanguard Cellular and served as president of the McCarthy Group, an investment banking firm, and he was CEO of American Information Systems Inc., a computerized voting machine manufacturer. Vanguard Group was bought by AT&T in 1999 and AT&T now relies on the Israel tech firm Kryon for its intelligent Robotic Process Automation (RPA).
Sheldon Adelson Invested in Fight Against Hagel, NYT Reports
If readers do not know what Technion, the Talpiot program and Unit 8200 (Israel's "NSA") are, people might be interested to see what is going on here with the "start-up nation" Israel. And as they say: this is just the tip of the tech iceberg. Adallom is a cloud security company based in Menlo Park, California whee there are Unit 8200 and Technion graduates working who re part of the Talpiot program. Adallom's product name is Microsoft Cloud App Security. Microsoft Israel works very closely with the Technion Institute.
Microsoft buys Unit 8200 AI Boutique for Cloud App Security and to Build Up Israel
Sequoia Capital is an American venture capital firm having the largest investment in Adallom of 33.6%. Don't be disoriented by the "American" part either. The firm is also located in Menlo Park, California and mainly focuses on investing in the technology industry. Sequoia Capital is a private equity firm run by Michael Moritz, sorry, Sir Michael Moritz who was born into a Jewish family. Moritz's net worth is estimated at $4.2 billion and who is an influential private equity investor in "seeding" Israeli tech start-up firms.
Kryon Systems is an Israeli robotic process automation company that announced the completion of a $40 million investment in Kryon's intelligent Robotic Process Automation (RPA). RPA allows companies to transform to the digital age. Kryon works closely with Microsoft and other big firms like Hewlett Packard, AT&T and Allianz. Sequoia Capital invested in Kryon Systems. Another example of how investment money is flowing into Israel is the private equity firm Aquiline Technology Growth (ATG) run by the Jewish-American Jeff Greenberg as Aquiline's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. Greenberg was the former chairman and CEO of American International Group (AIG) that now relies on the Israeli firm Kryon Systems.
It is consistent to say that there are many private equity firms in America, either owned or run by a Jewish-American, or connected to Israel in some way, that are investing heavily in Israeli tech firms. US Senator Dianne Feinstein's (Dianne Emiel Goldman) husband is Richard C. Blum who owns the private equity firm Blum Capital. Blum Capital is also invested in high tech firms Israel benefits from, both in Israel and in America. The amounts of money being invested in Israel's high tech sector have been continually escalating and are astronomical with the last year ending 2018.

How Pro-Israel Foundations in Washington are Pushing a US War with Iran
"As an ex-CIA case officer who worked on the Iran target for a number of years, I was shocked when I read the Times' article, primarily because it sounded like a repeat of the fabricated intelligence that was used against both Iraq and Iran in 2001 through 2003," says Philip M. Giraldi.
Observers of developments in the Middle East have long taken it as a given that the United States and Israel are seeking for an excuse to attack Iran. The recently terminated conference in Warsaw had that objective, which was clearly expressed by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, but it failed to rally European and Middle Eastern states to support the cause. On the contrary, there was strong sentiment coming from Europe in particular that normalizing relations with Iran within the context of the 2015 multi-party nuclear agreement is the preferred way to go both to avoid a major war and to prevent nuclear weapons proliferation.
There are foundations in Washington, all closely linked to Israel and its lobby in the U.S., that are wholly dedicated to making the case for war against Iran. They seek pretexts in various dark corners, including claims that Iran is cheating on its nuclear program, that it is developing ballistic missiles that will enable it to deliver its secret nuclear warheads onto targets in Europe and even the United States, that it is an oppressive, dictatorial government that must be subjected to regime change to liberate the Iranian people and give them democracy, and, most stridently, that is provoking and supporting wars and threats against U.S. allies all throughout the Middle East.
Dissecting the claims about Iran, one might reasonably counter that rigorous inspections by the United Nations International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) confirm that Tehran has no nuclear weapons program, a view that is supported by the U.S. intelligence community in its recent Worldwide Threat Assessment. Beyond that, Iran's limited missile program can be regarded as largely defensive given the constant threats from Israel and the U.S. and one might well accept that the removal of the Iranian government is a task best suited for the Iranian people, not delivered through military intervention by a foreign power that has been starving the country through economic warfare. And as for provoking wars in the Middle East, look to the United States and Israel, not Iran.
So the hawks in Washington, by which one means National Security Adviser John Bolton, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and, apparently President Donald Trump himself when the subject is Iran, have been somewhat frustrated by the lack of a clear casus belli to hang their war on. No doubt prodded by Netanyahu, they have apparently revived an old story to give them what they want, even going so far as to develop an argument that would justify an attack on Iran without a declaration of war while also lacking any imminent threat from Tehran to justify a preemptive strike.

Violence is fundamental to Israel's 'democracy' and always has been
Israeli soldiers hiding behind bunkers and using long-range sniper rifles have intentionally murdered 35 children, paramedics, journalists and disabled people during its ongoing assault against Palestinian civilian protestors along the Gaza border, a report released by the United Nations concluded this week. The UN Human Rights Commission (UNHRC) said that Israeli soldiers violated international human rights and humanitarian laws in killing 189 Palestinians and wounding more than 6,100 in weekly Friday protests since they began on 30 March, 2018. According to Palestinian sources in Gaza, those figures are very conservative.
In the 25-page report, UN officials said that the killings "may constitute war crimes or crimes against humanity" and urged that the evidence should be submitted formally to the International Criminal Court (ICC) for prosecution.
Rather than addressing the contents of the report, Israeli officials, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, responded in their usual way when confronted with overwhelming evidence of the mass murder of women, children and innocent civilians: they accused the UN of "anti-Semitism", bias and hypocrisy. This is nothing new. The Israelis have been obfuscating and denying mass murder allegations since the ethnic cleansing and destruction of at least 400 Palestinian towns and villages during the "war of independence" between 1946 and 1949.
Israel's history is built on terrorism and killing not just on the basis of race or ethnicity, but also on religion; what we might call "religicide". Its murderous violence has continued throughout its seven decades of existence. The murder of Christians and Muslims by Israeli soldiers has always been justified by asserting that the Jewish soldiers were merely "retaliating" for attacks by Arabs. What's more, news reports are censored and Israeli journalists are prohibited from reporting on the incidents.

Not only a racist rabbi, but a racist state
I have regularly written about the implications of the followers of murdered Rabbi Meir Kahane forming an official Israeli party called the Jewish Power party. This is a party that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has recently sought to include in the Jewish Home right-wing coalition consisting of Zionist religious movements.
Kahane is the founder of the Jewish Defence League as well as the fascist Kach gang, which has been outlawed by Israeli law. He served as a member of the 11th Knesset in 1988. His electoral list was then disqualified, and he was barred from running in the Israeli general elections for racism.
In this context, I cited an Israeli academic study published in 2002, concluding that the roots of Kahane's blatant racism are deep within Israeli society and that right-wing extremism is not an abnormality in the practices of Zionist politicians, regardless of their political affiliations and where they fall on the spectrum. In fact, before 1948, nationalist movements were active in Palestine, foremost among which was the revisionist movement led by Ze'ev Jabotinsky, and parts of it were influenced by fascism in Europe. The occupation in 1967 re-paved the way for its reinforcement and brought it to the forefront, and we saw more of it, such as the dissolved Tehiya, Tzomet and Moledet political parties, and the Kach gang. The study was based on a public opinion poll showing support for Kach's barbaric ideas (including encouraging the displacement of Palestinians in 1948 and initiating an attack on them after acts of resistance) among voters for all Jewish parties, including those who portray themselves as being centre or left-wing parties, such as the Meretz Party.

'You knew you were taking a bribe': The specifics of Netanyahu's alleged crimes
In 57-page 'announcement of suspicions,' attorney general details instances in which PM was party to illicit deals and conflicts of interest, harmed public trust, abused his office
Amid unending political chatter and myriad claims relating to his conduct from across the political spectrum, Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit has kept near silence over the allegations against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu since police opened their investigations into the premier over two years ago.
On Thursday he finally spoke out, announcing in a 57-page document his plans to press charges against Netanyahu for a series of alleged crimes in three separate cases.
In a move that drastically shakes up Israeli politics less than six weeks before general elections, Mandelblit said Netanyahu will be indicted, pending a hearing, for fraud, breach of trust and bribery.
The felony of "fraud and breach of trust" applies when public servants have compromised their ability to act in the public interest, according to Prof. Barak Medina, the former dean of the Hebrew University Law Faculty.
"You don't have to take money or get benefits to be guilty, you don't even have to discuss it," Medina noted. "Actively putting yourself at risk of not acting in the public interest is the very definition of fraud and breach of trust. That's it."
Bribery, however, is considered an even more severe crime and carries with it the additional label of "moral turpitude" - defined in law as "an act or behavior that gravely violates the sentiment or accepted standard of the community" - which prohibits politicians from running for office for a full seven years after the end of a prison or community service sentence.
In the "announcement of suspicions" document delivered to Netanyahu and his legal team on Thursday afternoon, Mandelblit details multiple instances of wrongdoing "at the hands of [the prime minister] during the time in which you were a public servant."

Israel will continue to act against Iran in Syria, Netanyahu tells Putin in Moscow
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel told Russian President Vladimir Putin in Moscow on Wednesday that Israel will continue to act against Iran's attempts to entrench militarily in Syria.
Netanyahu shortened his trip and planned to return Wednesday night, the day of his meeting with Putin, reportedly so he could be in Israel on Thursday, when Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit may issue decisions on several criminal investigations against the prime minister.
The prime minister had postponed his meeting with Putin from last week because of "domestic political affairs," the Kremlin announced at the time.
Prior to the start of their meeting, Netanyahu told Putin that Israel is "determined to continue our vigorous action against the attempts by Iran, which calls for our destruction," according to the Israeli leader's office.
Netanyahu said he believes the 11 meetings with Putin in the last 3 1/2 years are "a vital component in preventing risks and friction between our militaries and contributes to security and stability in the region."
He invited Putin to attend the dedication of a memorial in Jerusalem to those who fell during the siege of Leningrad during World War II, when approximately 500,000 Jews fought in the Red Army. Putin reportedly accepted the invitation.
Along with Syria, the two discussed regional affairs and security coordination.
On Wednesday evening, Netanyahu and his wife, Sara, met with leaders of the Jewish community in Moscow.
"The Russian-speaking public [in Israel], over 1 million people, has changed the country and, together with the Jewish community here in Russia and Moscow, constitutes a living bridge between these two peoples," he said.

Tlaib entered the world of politics in 2004 as an intern to Michigan State Representative Steve Tobocman.
In 2008 she was the Arab-American outreach coordinator for Barack Obama's presidential campaign in Michigan. Later that year, Tlaib herself was elected, as a Democrat, to the Michigan House of Representatives, where she would serve from 2009-15.
In October 2006, Tlaib was a guest columnist who contributed an op-ed piece titled "Bills Must Stop Deportations for Minor Offenses" to The Final Call, a newspaper and website headed by Nation Of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan. In her article, Tlaib lamented that immigrants were in constant fear of being arbitrarily deported for what she described as small violations such as paperwork errors.
Over the years, Tlaib has cultivated noteworthy ties to a number of Islamist organizations. In 2009 she received a Community Service Award from the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR). In March 2010 she praised CAIR for its "invaluable" and "vital" "advocacy efforts" on behalf of "those who don't have the resources to defend themselves."[1] In her 2010 congressional re-election campaign, Tlaib received strong support from the Arab American Political Action Committee. In 2013-14, she received numerous financial donations from individuals affiliated with CAIR, the Islamic Society of North America, the Muslim Students Association (MSA), and the Muslim Public Affairs Council (MPAC). In 2014 she spoke at a CAIR banquet in Los Angeles, and at the annual joint conference of the Muslim American Society (MAS) and the Islamic Circle of North America. And in a January 2015 tweet, Tlaib noted approvingly that the head of Islamic Relief USA - a branch of Islamic Relief Worldwide, which had recently been designated as a terrorist organization by the United Arab Emirates - had come to Detroit to discuss "water relief from Gaza to Detroit."
In an October 2015 tweet, Tlaib linked to an article in The Nation lauding Black Lives Matter activists in Chicago for supporting "a Palestinian woman threatened with deportation." The woman in question was Rasmea Odeh, a Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine terrorist who had played a central role in a deadly 1969 terrorist bombing in Jerusalem, and had committed felonious immigration fraud in the U.S. years later.
In a November 2017 tweet, Tlaib criticized U.S. Senator Kamala Harris for having met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to discuss cooperation between California and Israel on water management, agriculture, and cyber-security issues. "I am one of your supporters & donors," Tlaib told Harris. "Hoping you are still part of the resistance to racism against ALL people. This picture [of Netanyahu] says otherwise."
In December 2017, Tlaib shared a Facebook post in which Muslim activist Linda Sarsour had expressed support for Ahed Tamimi, a 17-year-old Palestinian girl whom Israeli authorities had recently incarcerated for assaulting an IDF soldier and proclaiming that "everyone must" attack Israeli Jews by means of "stabbings, martyrdom-seeking operations [i.e. suicide bombings], throwing stones." "Absolutely inhumane to target a young girl for fighting against racist policies," wrote Tlaib. "Her voice should be lifted."[2]
In December 2017 as well, Tlaib was a plaintiff in a lawsuit that attorney Shereef Akeel filed against U.S. President Donald Trump and two members of his cabinet. Condemning "the Trump Administration's regular and vulgar attacks against Islam and Muslims," and its "multipronged attempt to demonize Islam and marginalize Muslims in the United States," the suit challenged an executive order by which Trump was seeking to temporarily suspend all travel visas to the United States for people hailing from six Muslim-majority countries that were hotbeds of Islamic terrorism. Other plaintiffs in the case included such notables as Linda Sarsour, Nihad Awad, and Dawud Walid.
Tlaib is a member of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), which in 2018 endorsed her campaign to fill Michigan's 13th Congressional District seat in the U.S. House, which John Conyers had vacated when he resigned in December 2017. At a February 2018 DSA meeting in Detroit, Tlaib was asked if she planned to openly "run as a socialist." She replied: "Yeah, um it's, it's - we got to win." Tlaib then lamented that "people have tainted that word," and said she saw it as her duty to proudly "explain [that] the labor movement was founded on socialism."
Other supporters of Tlaib's congressional bid included J Street, Michael Moore, and Linda Sarsour, the latter of whom spent a day campaigning door-to-door with Tlaib. By August 2018, Tlaib had raised more than $30,000 from Islamists affiliated with CAIR, MPAC, MSA, and MAS.[3]

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to be indicted on bribe and fraud charges
An indictment would mark the first time in Israeli history that a sitting prime minister has been charged with a crime.
Israel's attorney general announced Thursday that his office plans to indict Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on corruption charges after a two-year investigation.
The prime minister faces one count of bribery and two counts of fraud and breach of trust.
Police have previously recommended indicting Netanyahu for bribery, fraud and breach of trust in three different cases.
The most serious allegations against Netanyahu involve his relationship with Shaul Elovitch, the controlling shareholder of Israel's telecom giant Bezeq. Police recommended an indictment in the case based on evidence collected that confidants of Netanyahu promoted regulatory changes worth hundreds of millions of dollars to Bezeq. In exchange, they believe Netanyahu used his connections with Elovitch to receive positive press coverage on Bezeq's popular subsidiary news site, Walla. Police have said their investigation concluded that Netanyahu and Elovitch engaged in a "bribe-based relationship."
Police also recommended charges be brought against Elovitch, members of his family and members of his Bezeq management team.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu indicted on bribe and fraud charges
The indictment marks the first time in Israeli history that a sitting prime minister has been charged with a crime.
Israel's attorney general announced Thursday that his office had indicted Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on corruption charges after a two-year investigation.
The prime minister faces one count of bribery and two counts of fraud and breach of trust.
…..
The attorney general's decision to publish his conclusions 39 days prior to the general election on April 9 is raising questions about what impact it can have on the outcome of the vote.
Israeli media reported Thursday that with just hours to go before Mandelblit's anticipated decision to indict Netanyahu, his Likud Party filed a petition to the Supreme Court to stop the announcement from happening before the election on the grounds that it would unfairly impact on Netanyahu's prospects of re-election. However, the court's spokesperson confirmed later in the afternoon that the petition was rejected.
The indictment marks the first time in Israeli history that a sitting prime minister has been charged with a crime.
Legal experts in Israel say it could take up to a year for a hearing process into the charges to end and an additional two years for a court case to be heard.

Genie Oil: The Syria, Goldman Sachs, Israel, ISIS connection
(VERO BEACH, FLA) A company named Genie Energy, with major investors and advisors such as Lord Rothschild, former VP Dick Cheney and news mogul Rupert Murdoch, could be at the center of decade long play for Israeli energy dominance in the Middle East.
Other major players associated with Genie Energy include economist Larry Summers, Democratic Party veteran Bill Richardson, and former CIA director James Woolsey.
Genie Energy Ltd. (GNEPRA) is an American-based oil and gas company comprised of two operating divisions, Genie Retail Energy division (GRE) and Genie Oil and Gas (GOGAS). GRE operates retail energy providers and brokerage and marketing services, while GOGAS is a global oil and gas exploration company operating an exploratory program in Northern Israel through a subsidiary called Afek Oil and Gas.
The current President of Afek Oil and Gas is Efraim “Effi” Eitam, a former Israeli military commander who called for expelling Arabs from Israel.
Genie Energy’s Israeli arm, Afek Oil and Gas, was first given a license to drill in the Golan Heights area in April 2013, but due to legal challenges by the Society for Protection of Nature in Israel and Greenpeace development was halted until December 2014. The exploratory drilling began near the small town of Katzrin, northeast of the northern shore of the Sea of Galilee.
In October 2015 Afek Oil and Gas confirmed the discovery of oil in the Golan Heights.
In November 2015, The Economist, partially owned by the Rothschild family, ran a story titled “Black gold under the Golan” which detailed Genie Energy’s find in the Golan Heights.
“Israel’s decision in 1981 to annex the Golan (unlike the West Bank, which remains formally under military occupation) caused a diplomatic crisis with America,” The Economist noted. “The heights are still regarded internationally as illegally-occupied Syrian territory.”
The Economist added that “an influential group” including Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu and his former cabinet secretary Zvi Hauser were actively lobbying Israel’s government to take advantage of the chaos in Syria to demand “international recognition” of their section of the oil rich Golan Heights.
Netanyahu, according to The Economist, urged that Israel should demand this as compensation for having tolerated Obama’s Iranian nuclear agreement.
Gaining control of the Golan Heights has long been a goal of Israel.

Israeli AG Preparing to Indict Netanyahu On Bribery Charge This Week - Reports
The Israeli prime minister reportedly shortened his visit to Russia and will return to Israel tonight because of the reports of an indictment, per the Times of Israel.
The bribery scandal that's surrounded Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu may finally reach a head, as Israeli Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit is poised to recommend bribery charges, according to Israeli media reports.
Citing Israel's Army Radio, the Times of Israel reported Wednesday that the attorney general is getting ready to file charges on Case 4000, which alleges that Netanyahu took regulatory steps to help Shaul Elovitch in exchange for the telecommunication mogul's news site, Walla, covering Netanyahu in a more favorable light.
Another scandal that's surrounded the prime minister is known as Case 1000, per Times of Israel; it's reportedly a more typical bribery case in which Netanyahu is alleged to have helped out billionaires politically as part of illicit quid pro quo deals for gifts worth about $282,000. In both of these investigations, Mandelblit is expected to urge the filing of an indictment of the prime minister.
However, it is unclear whether the attorney general will recommend any legal action with regard to Case 2000, which allegedly involved Netanyahu colluding with news site Yedioth Ahronoth to cripple a competing news publication, Israel Hayom, in order to extract more positive coverage from Yedioth. Haaretz has reported that US casino billionaire Sheldon Adelson poured at least $50 million into Israel Hayom, but that the company's financial documents are a "closely guarded secret."
An indictment has been anticipated since Mandelblit announced last December that he was going to be "working quickly" as he decided whether or not to bring charges against Netanyahu, according to a report by the Jerusalem Post.
Still, the attorney general has said that the pending cases against Netanyahu "would not be influenced by anything other than the evidence and the law."

The tangled web of Israel's extreme right, American Jewry and the US terror blacklist
Former MK Michael Ben-Ari, who heads Otzma Yehudit (Jewish Power) and could return to Knesset thanks to a Netanyahu-blessed union with Jewish Home, has ties to non-governmental organizations linked to Meir Kahane's Kach Movement, outlawed in Israel and on US Treasury and State Department blacklists; to make matters worse, some of these NGOs get their funding from US Jews.
There were quite a few smiles in the Jewish Home party, the most moderate of the right-wing religious-Zionist factions, after most of its members voted in favor of teaming up with Ozma Yehudit (Jewish Power) in the upcoming April 9 elections. And thus in an almost off-hand manner, these politicians de facto joined forces with former members of Kach-a racist movement outlawed in Israel and featured on the list of terror organizations at both the US State Department and the US Treasury.
US Jews were quick to express their shock and outrage over the union and the involvement of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who put a lot of pressure on both sides and even made concessions of his own to make it happen.

In an interesting coincidence, when we turned to the Hemla NGO for a response, we were directed to the Yeshiva HaRaayon HaYehudi call center.
Later, Hemla offered the following response: "For nearly 20 years, the NGO has been operating a hostel for at-risk Haredi teenage girls, who went through serious abuse (and you should know all about this topic), and with God's help we are able to rehabilitate them and reintegrate them into society. The NGO deals with the social and rehabilitative field and has no ties to any political body.
"Benzi Gopstein finished working for the NGO in October 2014, and since then there have been no ties between him and Hemla - Aid for the Needy. Anat Gopstein finished working for the NGO in April 2015, and since then there have been no ties between her and the NGO. Unfortunately, the media has already slammed the holy work our dedicated staff does at the hostel several times, and we demand an end to dealing with this matter, which has been behind us for many years."
The Welfare Ministry offered the following response: "Hemla won a tender to operate a hostel for at-risk teenage girls from the Haredi sector, who are directed to social services in local authorities. The funding given to the NGO is for the operation of the hostel only."

Philip Giraldi: "Attacking Iran"
Observers of developments in the Middle East have long taken it as a given that the United States and Israel are seeking for an excuse to attack Iran. The recently terminated conference in Warsaw had that objective, which was clearly expressed by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, but it failed to rally European and Middle Eastern states to support the cause. On the contrary, there was strong sentiment coming from Europe in particular that normalizing relations with Iran within the context of the 2015 multi party nuclear agreement is the preferred way to go both to avoid a major war and to prevent nuclear weapons proliferation.
There are foundations in Washington, all closely linked to Israel and its lobby in the U.S., that are wholly dedicated to making the case for war against Iran. They seek pretexts in various dark corners, including claims that Iran is cheating on its nuclear program, that it is developing ballistic missiles that will enable it to deliver its secret nuclear warheads onto targets in Europe and even the United States, that it is an oppressive, dictatorial government that must be subjected to regime change to liberate the Iranian people and give them democracy, and, most stridently, that is provoking and supporting wars and threats against U.S. allies all throughout the Middle East.
Dissecting the claims about Iran, one might reasonably counter that rigorous inspections by the United Nations International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) confirm that Tehran has no nuclear weapons program, a view that is supported by the U.S. intelligence community in its recent Worldwide Threat Assessment. Beyond that, Iran's limited missile program can be regarded as largely defensive given the constant threats from Israel and the U.S. and one might well accept that the removal of the Iranian government is a task best suited for the Iranian people, not delivered through military intervention by a foreign power that has been starving the country through economic warfare. And as for provoking wars in the Middle East, look to the United States and Israel, not Iran.
So the hawks in Washington, by which one means National Security Adviser John Bolton, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and, apparently President Donald Trump himself when the subject is Iran, have been somewhat frustrated by the lack of a clear casus belli to hang their war on. No doubt prodded by Netanyahu, they have apparently revived an old story to give them what they want, even going so far as to develop an argument that would justify an attack on Iran without a declaration of war while also lacking any imminent threat from Tehran to justify a preemptive strike.

The Denial of Taxes to the PA is an Ominous Sign of Netanyahu's Grand Plan
Israel's decision to withhold part of the taxes it collects on behalf of the Palestinian Authority and plunge it deeper into crisis starkly illustrates the hypocrisies and deceptions at the core of the two governments' relationship.
Under the terms of what are now the quarter century-old Oslo accords, Israel is responsible for collecting about $200 million each month in taxes, which it is supposed to pass on to the PA, the Palestinian government-in-waiting in the West Bank.
The money belongs to the Palestinians but Israel has temporarily withheld it on several occasions in the past as a stick with which to beat the Palestinian leadership into line.
On this occasion, however, the stakes are far higher.
Last week Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu belatedly implemented a law passed last summer that requires his officials to retain part of the taxes owed to the Palestinians - those that the PA transfers to political prisoners' families as a monthly stipend.
It echoes the Taylor Force Act, a law passed by the US Congress in 2016, that denies American economic aid to the PA until it stops sending those same stipends to 35,000 families of prisoners and those killed and maimed by the Israeli army.
The PA has tried to avert that threat by channelling the payments through a separate body, the Palestine Liberation Organisation.
Israel and Washington regard the prisoners simply as terrorists. But most Palestinians view them as heroes, those who have paid the highest price in the struggle for national liberation.
The Palestinian public no more believes the families should be abandoned for their sacrifices than Irish republicans turned their backs on those who fought British rule or black South Africans forsook those who battled apartheid.
Palestinian president Mahmoud Abbas called Israel's actions "robbery" and said he would rather cut funding for health and education than for the prisoners and their families. "They are the most respected and appreciated part of the Palestinian people," he declared.
Then he played his ace card. He said he would refuse all tax money from Israel until the full sum was reinstated.

Argentina's Chief Rabbi Assaulted, Tied up in His Home
Argentina's Chief Rabbi has been taken to hospital after being beaten in a night-time attack at his home in the capital Buenos Aires. Rabbi Gabriel Davidovich said his wife was restrained during the break-in while he was attacked.
In a statement, Amia - a Jewish cultural centre - said the attackers stole money and told Mr Davidovich: "We know that you are the Amia Rabbi." The organisation said comments made by his attackers were "a cause for alarm".
The Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu condemned the attack. "Anti-Semitism must not be allowed to to rear its head," he said in a statement. Mr Davidovich, who has been Argentina's chief rabbi since 2013, was being treated for several fractured ribs and a punctured lung, according to local press reports. Police said they were investigating the incident as a robbery.

Netanyahu Finds Israeli Ultra-Right Parties Suited to His Political Purposes
The members of Otsma Yehudit are thugs and some have been designated as terrorists, and Netanyahu has more stately manners. But their objectives and their actions are in perfect sync.
JERUSALEM, OCCUPIED PALESTINE - As Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu enters into an alliance with the Israeli equivalent of neo-Nazis, media outlets - including the Washington Post and The Forward - and even AIPAC express uneasiness. However, for Netanyahu, this political partnership makes sense ideologically and politically. Netanyahu shares the racist-nationalist ideology of these extremist groups and, since there is a mad rush to the right within Israel's political parties, Netanyahu, wanting to win the race, is now in an alliance with the most right-wing group on the Israeli political map - and that is saying a lot!
The Partners
Otsma Yehudit, or Jewish Might, states in its party platform, in the "Enemies of Israel" section:
The fight against the enemies of Israel will be toal and without compromise. There will be no compromises or negotiations. The party will act to enforce Israeli sovereignty on all parts of Eretz Israel that were liberated in the 1967 war and it will work to sort out the status of the enemies of Israel in the Arab states that surround Israel."
The platform also states that the party will act to see that all the enemies of Israel will emigrate and leave the country, returning to their countries of origin - and this out of a desire to keep Israel's Jewish character. The party will fight without compromise to end the theft of land and will act to redeem the lands of Israel in the Naqab, the Galilee and elsewhere in the spirit of the JNF.
On the issue of Government and Morals, the charter states that the Jewish character of the state will take precedence over any "universal values:" "We do not wish to lose the Jewish state by war or peace or Western Democracy."
To clarify some of the terminology, the "enemies of Israel" are the Palestinians, whom this party calls to expel. Their countries of origin are, according to this party, other Arab states. The general prevailing view among radical Zionists is that Palestine belongs to the Jews and that the Palestinians are invaders.

Israeli news anchor defends anti-occupation comments despite death threats
An Israeli news anchor who has blamed the Israeli occupation of Palestinian lands for turning regime troops into "animals" has defended her comments despite having received death threats from "thousands."
Israeli Channel 13 TV anchor Oshrat Kotler had last week denounced the mistreatment of Palestinians in Israeli custody following a piece aired on the channel about five Israeli soldiers indicted for beating two handcuffed and blindfolded Palestinians - a father and his 15-year-old son.
According to the indictment, the father was hospitalized for three days after sustaining multiple broken ribs, a "severely" broken nose, and subdermal bleeding around his stomach. The son also suffered a number of wounds to his head and "significant swelling" on his face.
After the report was aired, Kotler said, "We send children to the army, to the [occupied] territories, and get back animals. That is the result of the occupation."
Her remarks infuriated extremist Israeli politicians, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Education Minister Naftali Bennett, both demanding that the TV host apologize.
On Saturday, however, Kotler said she stood by her comments despite having been flooded with death threats, according to The Times of Isreal.
She accused Israeli politicians of taking "cynical" advantage of her comments and taking them out of context in the midst of an election campaign.
"I am sorry if I hurt anyone with my words, but I cannot see the price we pay through our children for the reality of controlling another nation," she said, appearing to fight back tears and referring to Palestinians. "We have lived this reality for 52 years. I do not have a magic solution; I am not a politician."
'Thousands of death threats'
She said her comments, "spoken with great pain," had been "directed only at the soldiers who violated the law" and not all Israeli troopers.
"Thousands threatened my life and the life of my family, and I am afraid, but I hope to find the strength to continue and express my opinion as a reporter," she said.
Israeli NGO Peace Now backed Kotler, saying, "It is permissible and even desirable to look into the mirror from time to time and honestly admit to the damage [caused by] the occupation. Those whose children's futures are important to them should work to end the conflict rather than maintain it, because the price is high."
Tamar Zandberg, the leader of left-wing Meretz Party, called the attacks on Kotler "pathetic and yet predictable... shutting your eyes [to the problem] and then assailing the messenger is not a solution."
Israeli forces have on numerous occasions been caught on camera brutally beating or killing Palestinians, with the videos going viral online and sparking widespread condemnations.

After AIPAC rebuke, Netanyahu defends aiding Kahanists: 'Hypocrisy by the left'
PM says 'left acted to bring extreme Islamists into Knesset' while now damning 'union with right-wing parties'; Otzma Yehudit: AIPAC want left in power, government that cedes land
After facing heavy criticism in recent days for brokering a political deal that could see the extremist Otzma Yehudit party enter the Knesset, and following a rare rebuke from the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Saturday evening fired back at critics.
"What hypocrisy and double standards by the left," he wrote on Facebook, in a post that did not mention AIPAC. "They're condemning [the formation of] a right-wing majority bloc with right-wing parties, while the left acted to bring extreme Islamists into the Knesset to create a majority bloc."
He then went on to list several instances of alleged support by left-wing politicians for radical Arab legislators and leaders.
"In 1999 [Ehud] Barak took part in a campaign rally with the inciting Sheik Raed Salah," he said, referring to the Islamist cleric who has repeatedly been arrested for fomenting violence. (The Haaretz newspaper noted that Barak took a tour in the Arab town of Umm al-Fahm during the campaign, which Salah, then the mayor, attended.)
"Representatives of Labor and Meretz voted for Azmi Bishara, who spied for Hezbollah, to enter the Knesset, and [Isaac] Herzog sought a surplus vote agreement with the Joint List and said the Arab MKs were legitimate in the government," Netanyahu also wrote.

AIPAC slams 'racist and reprehensible' extremist party wooed by Netanyahu
In rare comment on Israeli politics, powerful pro-Israel lobby joins AJC to decry union of the Kahanist 'Otzma Yehudit' with the Jewish Home party, a move midwifed by PM
WASHINGTON - In a rare comment on internal Israeli politics, AIPAC and the AJC, two mainstream US Jewish organizations, condemned the recent merger deal between the Jewish Home party with the extremist Otzma Yehudit party, a move that was midwifed by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
The deal could see the entrance of at least one lawmaker from the party of Meir Kahane's disciples into the 21st Knesset after the April elections.
In a statement late Thursday the American Jewish Committee said the "views of Otzma Yehudit are reprehensible. They do not reflect the core values that are the very foundation of the State of Israel."

Netanyahu Merges Extremist Parties, Seeking Support in Election
Racist party of Kahane loyalists has a shot at getting seats in upcoming vote
With the various far-right portions of the previous coalition government now split, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is looking for newer, farther right parties to court. He has made a deal on the merger of two extremist parties to try to get them above the electoral threshhold, and a deal to see those MPs join a Netanyahu-led coalition.
The merger combines what is left of the Jewish Home party, which is tiny since Naftali Bennett and other leaders left to form the New Right, and the Jewish Power party, a collection of racists loyal to the banned movement of Rabbi Meir Kahane.
This has sparked some criticism from Netanyahu's rivals, with him trying to cobble together potential allies from racists and homophobes, in an effort to keep his far-right coalition standing, no matter how much farther right it has to go.
While these parties are both very divisive and not palatable to the mainstream, they are both extremely pro-settler, and in Israel's notoriously-tight elections, courting the comparatively small number of settler voters is always seen as a priority for coalition-builders.

Extremist party that backs booting non-Jews seen by PM as vital for his victory
Jewish Home leaders had been wary of scaring off moderate supporters by merging with the Kahanist Otzma Yehudit, but PM's warning of 'leftist' threat appears to have won them over
When Meir Kahane served in the Knesset in the mid 1980s, fellow lawmakers made a habit of leaving the chamber when the far-right activist-rabbi rose to address the plenum.
Among those protesting were Knesset members from Likud and the National Religious Party (a precursor to today's Jewish Home). Members of those right-wing factions were also among those who voted in favor of modifying a Basic Law in 1985, which was used to bar Kahane's Kach party from running in the subsequent elections.
Fast forward nearly 35 years to Wednesday when a faction of leaders presenting themselves as disciples of that very same Kahane announced that they had reached an agreement to join Jewish Home in an alliance that Likud Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu spent immense efforts trying to bring about.

Russian President Vladimir Putin will meet with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Moscow to "test the stand of Russia and its allies in Syria on their intention to go to war if Israel bombs Syrian and Iranian objectives in the Levant". Netanyahu is seeking some answers related to the reaction of Russia and its potential participation or non-participation in a possible intermittent battle in the midst of war (as Israel prefers to call such interventions,"a battle between wars"). This tactic, an Israeli specialty, might take the form of Israel bombing the Russian S-300 surface to air missiles batteries delivered to the Syrian army as a bulwark against any future Israeli aggression.

Around 80 graves were discovered to have been daubed with swastikas at a Jewish cemetery in the village of Quatzenheim, close to the border with Germany in the Alsace region.

Poland pulls out of Israel summit in row over WW2 role
WARSAW/JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Poland pulled out of a planned summit in Israel after Israel's acting foreign minister said on Monday that "many Poles" had collaborated with the Nazis in World War Two and shared responsibility for the Holocaust. Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki branded the remarks "racist and unacceptable". He had previously said he would not join Tuesday's gathering of central European leaders in Israel, sending instead a lower-level delegation, but said on Monday that no Polish officials would now attend. "Not only can we not accept such racist comments, but with all our strength we want to stress that we will fight for historical truth, for the honor of Poles," he told reporters. The leaders of the other three 'Visegrad Group' nations - Hungary, the Czech Republic and Slovakia - all still planned to attend the talks, Israel said, but Czech Prime Minister Andrej Babis said they would instead consist of bilateral discussions and that the summit would be rescheduled for later in 2019.
Poland's right-wing Law and Justice (PiS) government has made what it sees as the defense of national honor over its wartime record a cornerstone of foreign policy since taking power in 2015. Many Poles refuse to accept research showing thousands of their countrymen participated in the Holocaust in addition to thousands of others who risked their lives to help the Jews. They say Warsaw's Western allies have also failed to acknowledge the scale of Poland's own suffering under wartime occupation. The diplomatic row between Poland and Israel has been escalating since Friday, when Israeli media reported remarks by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Friday suggesting Polish complicity in the Holocaust.
Israel's Acting Foreign Minister Israel Katz exacerbated the dispute on Monday when he told Israel's Army Radio: "Many Poles collaborated with the Nazis and took part in the destruction of the Jews during the Holocaust." Katz also quoted comments attributed to Israel's late prime minister Yitzhak Shamir: "Shamir said that every Pole suckled anti-Semitism with his mother's milk. Nobody will tell us how to express our stance and how to honor the dead."

Pure Evil
You might imagine that a report by a multinational observer force documenting a 20-year reign of terror by Israeli soldiers and Jewish settlers against Palestinians, in a city under occupation, would provoke condemnation from European and US politicians.
But you would be wrong. The leaking in December of the report on conditions in the city of Hebron, home to 200,000 Palestinians, barely caused a ripple.
About 40,000 separate cases of abuse had been quietly recorded since 1997 by dozens of monitors from Sweden, Norway, Switzerland, Italy and Turkey. Some incidents constituted war crimes.
Exposure of the confidential report has now provided the pretext for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to expel the international observers. He shuttered their mission in Hebron this month, in apparent violation of Israel's obligations under the 25-year-old Oslo peace accords.
Israel hopes once again to draw a veil over its violent colonisation of the heart of the West Bank's largest Palestinian city. The process of clearing tens of thousands of inhabitants from central Hebron is already well advanced.

'Jack of all trades' Netanyahu quits as foreign minister, retains 3 other posts
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has tapped an ally to lead the foreign ministry after a petition to the High Court argued it was impossible for him to juggle posts of PM, health, defense and foreign minister at once.
With less than two months left before the Israeli general election, Netanyahu relinquished his duties as the country's foreign minister, which he assumed in 2015, after a petition filed by the Movement for Quality Government, a non-government organization, to the High Court questioned his ability to handle the responsibility arising from his numerous ministerial posts.
The petition was launched back in December, when Netanyahu, who has been serving as the Israeli Prime Minister since 2009, still held four ministerial portfolios in addition to being the head of state.

Yemen protesters oppose normalization with Israel
Qatar: Palestinian issue core stumbling bloc to ties with Israel.
Protesters took to the street in Yemen on Sunday to protest normalized ties with Israel, and to show their support for Palestinians in the aftermath of last week's Warsaw summit in which the country's Foreign Minister Khaled Alyemany was seated next to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
The summit, which drew representatives from 60 nations to Warsaw on February 13 and 14, including from the Arab world, has been hailed as a breakthrough on the road to normalization with Israel, irrespective of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
Behind closed doors and on Twitter, Arab foreign ministers spoke of their concerns about Iran and downplayed the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
Alyemany posted a photograph of himself on his Twitter page with US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo talking against Iranian aggression. Foreign ministers from Bahrain, the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia made similar comments during a panel discussion.
On Sunday at the Munich Security Conference, Qatar's Prime Minister and Foreign Affairs Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al-Thani said that his country could not have normalized ties with Israel while the Palestinian conflict was left unresolved.
"The core issue of the relationship between Qatar and Israel is the Palestinian issue," Al-Thani said. "As long as this is not resolved, there will always be a problem between us. This applies for all the Arab countries."
"At the end we cannot overcome the Palestinians' [issue]. We have been calling for a two-state solution, we have been calling for a peaceful resolution to this conflict. We are willing to live peacefully if the Palestinian people's rights will go back to them. This is at the core of Qatar foreign policy."

Polish PM Cancels Trip to Israel Over Netanyahu's Holocaust Remark
Poland's foreign minister is expected to attend a Visegrad gathering of four central and Eastern European states in Jerusalem instead of the country's head of state after reports that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu appeared to blame the Polish nation of collaborating with the Nazis in the Holocaust.
Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki told Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that he has cancelled a visit to Israel, where the Visegrad summit is to start on Monday. The two heads of state spoke over the telephone, spokeswoman for the Polish government Joanna Kopcinska told journalists. Polish Foreign Minister Jacek Czaputowicz will attend the gathering of four Central and Eastern European nations in Jerusalem instead.
The news comes in the wake of reports about comments on Polish complicity with the Nazis during World War II that Netanyahu allegedly made while speaking on the sidelines of the Middle East conference in Warsaw.
Netanhayu responded to a question as to whether he was willing to go along with Poland's whitewashing of history with regard to the Holocaust, reportedly saying that "Poles cooperated with the Nazis. I know the history and I don't whitewash it. I bring it up", adding, according to news outlet Haaretz, "the Poles collaborated with the Nazis and I don't know anyone who was ever sued for such a statement".
However, the account in The Jerusalem Post said "Polish nation", quoting Netanyahu indirectly, which prompted backlash. Commenting on the story, the Israeli Prime Minister's office issued a statement saying that The Jerusalem Post had misquoted him. The outlet later published a correction.
After Polish Deputy Foreign Minister Szymon Szynkowski vel Sek said that they wished the issue "to be clarified unequivocally". In another statement, the Israeli prime minister also clarified that his remarks on the matter, which remains a sensitive issue in Poland, had not cast any blanket blame.
"In a briefing, PM Netanyahu spoke of Poles and not the Polish people or the country of Poland", the statement said.
Nevertheless, Poland has summoned Israeli Ambassador Anna Azari over the reported remarks.
It is now a crime in Poland to in any way attribute blame to the country for the genocide of Jews that took place across Europe by the Nazis during World War II. A controversial law was passed last year, also known as the Holocaust Bill, which was deeply unpopular in Israel because it was felt that Poland was trying to suppress discussions about the killing of Jews by Poles during the Nazi occupation of the country.

Nasrallah: Warsaw meet unmasked Israel-Gulf ties, Arab leaders Israel's 'tools'
Referencing dispute over IDF readiness for war, Hezbollah chief says Israelis 'don't trust' army; 'They know we can enter Galilee, they're not sure they can enter our land'
Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah on Saturday dismissed last week's Middle East conference in Warsaw as "weak and stale," and warned that Arab leaders moving toward normalization with Israel were only "a tool" in Israel's hands.
In a speech marking the terror group's annual remembrance day for "martyrs," Nasrallah said the summit in Poland, which focused strongly on Iran's belligerence in the region, aimed to "rally against Iran and the resistance movements in the region... The enemies are trying to rally the world to conspire against the resistance after their wars failed to eradicate it."
He said Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was "speaking from the heart" when he talked at the conference of seeking "war with Iran," a statement that has been characterized as a mistranslation of Netanyahu's original Hebrew comments.
But Nasrallah asserted that "today Iran is a strong state and stronger than anyone who targets it with war."

While Pompeo Pouts In Poland, Putin Pushes Peace In Syria
In the end, the Neocons in D.C. and Tel Aviv are showing real desperation in summoning everyone to Poland while having almost no support for the intended policy, war with Iran.
f there was ever a Valentine's Day which highlight the stark differences to diplomacy between the U.S. and Russia it is this one.
In Warsaw, the U.S. cajoled some sixty countries, many of them Arab, to send representatives only to be scolded like schoolchildren by Vice President Mike Pence for undermining the drive for war with Iran.
Mike Pompeo, for his part, showed no signs of shame or remorse after his public rebuke by Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto.
Szijjarto retorted to Pompeo's lecturing that "the world is not going to be a better place if some countries spend their time intervening in the internal political affairs of other countries." He insisted that Budapest can have transparent relations with Moscow and Beijing and the West, and said it was an "enormous hypocrisy" that Hungary is singled out for its ties with Moscow.
He then went to Poland with the intention of whipping up support for a war with Iran. But not to actually call it that. Until Benjamin Netanyahu arrived with fever dreams on his lips.
As Moon of Alabama pointed out, this was a huge slap for Pompeo, whose staff kept trying to downplay the anti-Iran nature of the Poland fiasco to make it more palatable for media consumption.
By claiming that the conference is about waging war on Iran Netanyahoo is not only embarrassing the State Department and Secretary Mike Pompeo. He also makes it extremely difficult for other attendees to justify their presence. The Arabs will be especially furious that they are shown in such an open alliance with Israel and its hostility against Iran. Scheming with Israel in the dark is fine. But being publicly associated with a war mongering Israel is difficult to sell to their people. It would be unsurprising to see some of them leave.

Israel threatens to attack Iran bases in Iraq
Israel's military intelligence has said that "Iran may use Iraq as a launching pad to target Israel, which would call for a response from Tel Aviv".
"Israeli airstrikes against Iranian forces in Syria may prompt Iranians to build military and missile facilities," it said in its annual assessment, adding: "This situation will require Israel to intensify its intelligence efforts in Iraq, with the possibility of taking operational steps there if Iranian proliferation becomes a military threat".
Israel's Makan website published a summary of a report, which said that Iran was withdrawing its forces in Syria from areas near the occupied Golan Heights, which lies between Syria and Israel.
According to the assessment, Iran may take "provocative steps" in the nuclear field in an attempt to force the international community to lift economic sanctions imposed on it.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and army commanders have recently confirmed that many Iranian military targets were bombed in Syria, pledging to continue airstrikes against Iranian-backed forces in the country.

Gulf states' warm, secret embrace of Israel exposed
The Jerusalem Post published two letters in recent weeks directly addressing the crown princes of Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.
The first, published in mid-January, is penned by Meidan Bar, chair of the Israeli Airline Pilots Association.
Bar, who was a pilot in the Israeli air force, invited Saudi Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman to visit Israel and send a Saudi delegation to an Israeli aviation conference in May.
The second, written by Joel Rosenberg, a Christian Zionist and US-Israeli dual citizen, invites Abu Dhabi crown prince Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan to visit Israel.
In November, Rosenberg led a delegation of Christian evangelicals and pro-Israel American figures to Riyadh to meet Saudi Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman.
Whether Abu Dhabi's Mohamed bin Zayed will take up Rosenberg's invitation is unclear, but it would not be the first time the crown prince would speak with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Rift in covert relations
According to a report by Barak Ravid for Israel's Channel 10, the two leaders spoke by phone several times between 2015 and 2016, following years of covert relations between the two countries.
This includes intelligence collaboration against Iran, arms sales and technology exchanges.
Ravid traces the history of the collaboration back a decade, when the failure of a secret arms deal between Israel and the United Arab Emirates led to a two-year rift in covert relations.
In February 2009, Israel lobby stalwart and former US "peace process" diplomat Dennis Ross, UAE ambassador to Washington Yousef Al Otaiba and Israeli ambassador Sallai Meridor met in secret at a Washington hotel, Ravid reported.
Al Otaiba and Meridor wanted to convey their countries' mutual concern to Ross over the Obama administration's intention to open dialogue with Iran.
"There was concern, anxiety, and common interests between Israel and the Arab countries regarding Iran," Meridor told Ravid.
In July that year, two senior Obama administration officials flew to Abu Dhabi to meet bin Zayed, who said he shared Israel's outlook about Iran.
"I agree with Israeli intelligence about the progress of the Iranian nuclear program. The Israelis are going to attack Iran's nuclear facilities sooner than you think. Probably this year. The Iranians will react with rocket fire first of all against us," bin Zayed said, according to a telegram at the time.
The same year, Meir Dagan, the late army general and head of the Mossad under several prime ministers, proposed to newly appointed Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that an Israeli company sell drones to the UAE in exchange for collaboration on Iran.
"The Mossad serves as the foreign ministry of Israel in relation to all those countries with which there are no diplomatic relations," Dov Weisglass, a former senior advisor to the late Prime Minister Ariel Sharon, told Ravid.
It is unclear whether Netanyahu gave the green light before or after the deal was finalized with the Israeli company. Either way, the UAE paid tens of millions of dollars to the company before the Israeli defense ministry learned of the deal, which it vehemently opposed, and canceled.

Jared Kushner says Trump peace plan won't include Saudi initiative
U.S. Vice President Mike Pence thanked Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for his commitment to the historic alliance between their two countries, adding: "Israel is our cherished ally."
WARSAW - US special envoy Jared Kushner confirmed Thursday that US President Donald Trump's peace plan won't be based on past international understanding such as the 2002 Saudi initiative, which the international community and the Palestinians have long touted as the basis of a two-state solution.
"I think it was a great initiative, in 2002 when it was done, but it hasn't produced peace, so if that was the framework under which something would be accomplished then I think that would have been accomplished a long time ago, and then I wouldn't be doing the duty I'm doing right now to try to bring the people together," Kushner reportedly said behind closed doors at the Warsaw summit. His words were leaked to the Israeli media.
He also confirmed that the Trump peace plan would not be published until after the April 9 election.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu confirmed that Kushner had dismissed the Saudi peace plan and spoken of a rollout date after the elections, when he gave a private briefing to Israeli reporters on the sidelines of the Warsaw summit.
He said Kushner had not provided any specific details about the plan and Netanyahu ducked a question about territorial concessions.
At a meeting with US Vice President Mike Pence, Netanyahu said he looked forward to receiving Trump's peace plan. The Palestinians boycotted the meeting in Warsaw.

Pence Pays Homage to Jews, Poles Who Resisted Nazis
U.S. Vice President Mike Pence paid homage Thursday to the suffering of the Jewish and Polish people under German occupation during World War II with visits to memorials honoring their suffering and heroism.
The heavily symbolic visits to a city destroyed by Adolf Hitler's forces were gestures of friendship to two of America's closest allies, Israel and Poland. They came a day before Pence will make his first visit to Auschwitz, the memorial site where Nazi German forces killed 1.1 million people, most of them Jews, in what was then occupied Poland.
Pence first joined prime ministers Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel and Mateusz Morawiecki of Poland in honoring the wartime Jewish insurgents who rose up against Nazi German forces in the Warsaw Ghetto uprising of 1943.

Pompeo, Bolton, and Iran's "Fake Opposition"
As Iranian people struggle for democracy and respect for human rights and the rule of law, as well as preserving the national security and territorial integrity of their country, two main groups have emerged among the opposition to Iran's hardliners, both within Iran and in the diaspora. One group, the true opposition that includes the reformists, religious-nationalists, secular leftists, various labor groups, human rights activists, and others, believes that it is up to the Iranian people living in Iran how to change the political system in their country. This group is opposed to foreign intervention, particularly by the United States and its allies, the illegal economic sanctions imposed by the United States on Iran, and the constant threats of military confrontation espoused by John Bolton, President Trump's national security advisor, and other Iran hawks.
Many Iranians refer to the second group as the "fake" opposition. It consists mostly of the monarchists, some ethnic groups, and the Mojahedin-e Khalq (MEK), the exiled group that is universally despised in Iran and was on the State Department's list of "Foreign Terrorist Organizations" from 1997 until 2011. It is called the "fake" opposition because it supports the economic sanctions and the threat of military attacks, and has completely aligned itself not only with the Trump administration, but also with Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), and Israel, and endorses their propaganda against Iran. This group, whose followers are based mostly in the diaspora, acts more like a lobby for convincing the Iranian people to support the Trump-Mohammed bin Salman(MbS)-Benjamin Netanyahu triangle in their confrontation with Iran, rather than as a group supporting the true opposition within Iran for lasting, irreversible, and positive changes in the political system.
The harsh economic sanctions imposed on the Iranian people have contributed significantly to the terrible state of Iran's economy, increasing inflation and unemployment, making vital drugs and medications scarce, and hurting the middle class greatly. These groups' support for the hostility of Saudi Arabia, Israel, and UAE toward Iran is particularly galling at a time when Saudi Arabia has threatened "to take the war to inside Iran," Israel came close numerous times to attacking Iran from 2010-2011 and is still threatening it, and the UAE welcomed the terrorist attacks in Ahvaz in southern Iran last September.

Netanyahu in Warsaw: For Arab leaders, Iran threat more urgent than Palestinians
At end of summit, PM says 4 Arab foreign ministers spoke out to back Israel's right to defend itself against Iranian aggression; Arab states 'half open' to warmer ties with Israel
WARSAW, Poland - Four Arab foreign ministers who spoke at the Warsaw Middle East summit affirmed Israel's right to defend itself against Iranian aggression, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Thursday.
Speaking to reporters shortly after he left the event, most of which was closed to the press, the prime minister hailed the very fact that 10 Arab foreign ministers agreed to share a conference stage with an Israeli leader as the "breaking of a taboo."
"Four out of five Arab foreign ministers who addressed the conference [on Thursday] spoke strongly and clearly against Iran, saying exactly what I've been saying for years," Netanyahu said. "They were as clear as possible about the issue, and Israel's right to defend itself against Iranian aggression."

Pompeo says 'confronting Iran' key to Mideast peace
US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said Thursday at a security conference in Warsaw that Iran is the top threat in the Middle East and confronting the country is key to reaching peace in the entire region.
Pompeo met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu before the opening session at the conference and said "pushing back" against Iran was central to dealing with all the region's other problems.
"You can't achieve peace and stability in the Middle East without confronting Iran. It's just not possible," Pompeo said alongside Netanyahu.
The Israeli leader lauded the participation of high-profile Arab dignitaries at the conference, saying it signaled a shift in regional priorities.
"In a room of some 60 foreign ministers, an Israeli prime minister and the foreign ministers of leading Arab countries stood together, and spoke with unusual force, clarity and unity against a common threat of the Iranian regime," he said before his meeting with Pompeo. "I think this marks a change, an important understanding of what threatens our future."

As Rudy Giuliani Calls for Regime Change in Iran, Netanyahu Raises the Specter of "War"
Rudy Giuliani, the former mayor of New York City who now serves as President Donald Trump's personal lawyer, called for the overthrow of Iran's government on Wednesday during a rally in Poland staged by a cult-like group of Iranian exiles who pay him to represent them.
Speaking outside the Warsaw venue for an international conference on the Middle East attended by U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Giuliani said that his message for the 65 governments discussing ways to confront Iran was simple. "The theocratic dictatorship in Tehran," Giuliani said, "must end and end quickly."
Giuliani went on to suggest that peace in the region would only come when Iran was ruled instead by his clients, the National Council of Resistance of Iran, an exile group of former terrorists also known as the Mojahedin-e Khalq, or People's Mujahedin. The group's leader, Maryam Rajavi, already refers to herself as "President-elect."
Off-stage, the U.S. president's lawyer admitted that he was paid by the exile group, but stressed to reporters that he was in Warsaw on behalf of the MEK in his personal capacity and would not be attending the diplomatic conference organized by the State Department.
Even before the conference began, the Israeli prime minister appeared to shrug off efforts by the State Department and the Polish government to portray the gathering as broadly focused on Middle East peace, describing it as primarily a meeting of Iran's enemies.
In video posted on the prime minister's official Twitter feed, Netanyahu characterized a meeting with Oman's foreign minister as "excellent," and one focused on "additional steps we can take together with the countries of the region in order to advance common interests."

Israel prevents Palestinians from documenting Hebron settler crimes
The Israeli army has prevented Palestinian activists from documenting Israeli settlers' crimes against Palestinians in the occupied West Bank city of Hebron.
This came after a group of Palestinian activists called Youth Against Settlement earlier this week launched a campaign to document settler violations in Hebron after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu expelled the TIPH UN monitoring force that has documented Israeli crimes for 22 years, Quds Press reported yesterday.
In a statement, the activists said that settlers had already attacked them, despite the fact that they had been operating for only three days. The activists have already documented numerous violations against Hebron's Palestinians, including attacks on Palestinian primary school pupils.
The activists said that the Israeli army expelled them from Al-Shuhada Street, which has been closed to Palestinians since 1994 when an extremist Israeli Jewish settler massacred 29 Palestinian worshippers inside the city's Ibrahimi Mosque during the holy month of Ramadan.
According to the statement, the activists - who are led by the prominent activist Issa Amro - said they would not stop documenting the Israeli violations in spite of being expelled from Al-Shuhada Street, which was declared a closed military zone.
The statement reported Amro as saying that he and his fellow activists had received life-threatening calls from the Israeli intelligence services and the Israeli Civil Administration - which administers the occupied Palestinian territories - after the creation of this group.
In a separate press release, Amro said that the Israeli settlers attacked him along with the activists and other Palestinians in the area, saying he had received a phone call from someone who spoke Hebrew and threatened to end his life.

Former Israeli spies tried to influence local US election: Report
A defunct private intelligence agency in Israel attempted to influence at least one local US election and other domestic affairs, according to a report by US media.
The company, Psy-Group, even courted President Donald Trump's 2016 campaign and is now under investigation by the special counsel Robert Mueller, according to the report from The New Yorker.
Mueller is investigating alleged Russian collusion with Trump's election campaign during the 2016 US presidential election.
The company also tried to influence local elections in the US in favor of private clients, using smear campaigns and other methods including fake websites and online avatars to change the elections outcome.
Company architects
The New Yorker named Ram Ben-Barak, who was previously a deputy director of Mossad, and Yaakov Amidror, the former national security adviser to Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, as the agents behind its operations.
Psy-Group's owner, Joel Zamel, described by US media as an "Israeli social media expert" who specializes in "social media manipulation", is known to have founded several companies, including one offering 'honey traps' and 'deep web' capabilities.
Zamel met with Donald Trump Jr. and Erik Prince (the brother of Education Secretary Betsy DeVos) at Trump Tower to pitch the company's services.
Sales pitch
Psy-Group, in a one-page website that gave a Cyprus address and a slogan "Shape Reality," offered its service for influence campaigns, boasting that they could "plant the seeds of thought in people."
The Israeli company offered clients an array of services-including "honey traps," a term used by spy agencies for an intelligence-gathering tactic using romantic or sexual relationships to extract information.
The Israeli firm also advertised its services in the "deep web and boasted Darknet capabilities."
"We are looking at the tip of the iceberg in terms of where this can go," a former Israeli private intelligence worker reportedly told The New Yorker.
The tactics and proposals that were reportedly employed by the group are similar to those of Cambridge Analytica's services and those of Russian hackers who allegedly infiltrated American political networks through social media during the 2016 election.

U.S. meeting on Middle East brings together Israel, Gulf Arab states
WARSAW (Reuters) - A U.S.-sponsored Middle East conference aimed at building a coalition against what Washington sees as the threat posed by Iran also produced signs of a warming of ties between Israel and some Arab countries on Wednesday. Foreign ministers and other officials from more than 60 countries were gathering for the conference in Warsaw, which was starting on Wednesday evening and whose agenda included Iran, conflicts in Syria, Yemen and Israeli-Palestinian peace.
On the sidelines, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu met Oman's foreign minister. "Many are following this (Omani) lead, and may I say, including at this conference," a video released by Netanyahu's office showed him telling Yousuf bin Alawi bin Abdullah, whose Gulf state hosted the Israeli leader in October. Oman does not formally recognize Israel. Nor do Saudi Arabia and United Arab Emirates, which also sent envoys to Warsaw and which share Israel's concerns about Iran's nuclear program and involvement in several regional flashpoints.
Speaking to Netanyahu, bin Alawi said: "People in the Middle East have suffered a lot because they have stuck to the past. Now we say, this is a new era, for the future." Netanyahu - who has been trying to play up his diplomatic gains ahead of Israel's April election - has frequently hinted at warmer ties with Gulf Arab states. A photo-op with Netanyahu and senior figures from Arab countries in Warsaw would be a win for Washington as it seeks to ratchet up pressure against Tehran. The Iranians say it is U.S.-aligned forces in the region, and not they, who are belligerent. Leading European countries Germany and France opted not to send their foreign ministers over concerns the meeting could highlight big-power tensions over Washington's decision last year to withdraw from the 2015 Iran nuclear deal and reimpose sanctions against Tehran.
Vice President Mike Pence is leading the U.S. delegation, accompanied by Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and White House advisor Jared Kushner. "We're trying to expand the number of nations who are engaged and have a stake in the future of a peaceful and prosperous Middle East," Brian Hook, the State Department's special representative for Iran, told Reuters. Arab nations and Israel faced a common threat of Iranian regional aggression and Washington was working closely with these nations to counter this, he said. "Iran isn't behaving like a normal country. They have a very expansionist foreign policy and that destabilizes other countries," said Hook when asked whether the absence of Germany and France's top diplomats at the meeting mattered. EU policy chief Federica Mogherini, a key player in the Iran nuclear deal, will also not attend the two-day conference due to scheduling issues, an EU official said, although Pompeo will travel to Brussels on Friday to meet with her.
ISRAELI-PALESTINIAN PLAN Kushner, who is President Donald Trump's son-in-law, will brief delegates behind closed doors on Thursday on U.S. plans for peace between Palestinians and Israelis. Palestinian officials, viewing the current U.S. administration as having a pro-Israel bias, declined to attend the conference. Hosting the meeting is a chance for Poland's conservative government to bolster ties with Washington at a time when it is increasingly isolated within the EU amid a dispute over its adherence to rule-of-law standards. Transatlantic cooperation was necessary to resolve problems in the Middle East, Polish Foreign Minister Jacek Czaputowicz said. "The European Union alone does not, in my opinion, carry sufficient political weight to try to really influence the situation in the Middle East," he told reporters.

Q Research General #6588: Moar Indictments are Being Unsealed Edition
In Hebron, Israel Removes the Last Restraint on Its Settlers' Reign of Terror
You might imagine that a report by a multinational observer force documenting a 20-year reign of terror by Israeli soldiers and Jewish settlers against Palestinians, in a city under occupation, would provoke condemnation from European and US politicians.
But you would be wrong. The leaking in December of the report on conditions in the city of Hebron, home to 200,000 Palestinians, barely caused a ripple.
About 40,000 separate cases of abuse had been quietly recorded since 1997 by dozens of monitors from Sweden, Norway, Switzerland, Italy and Turkey. Some incidents constituted war crimes.
Exposure of the confidential report has now provided the pretext for Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu to expel the international observers. He shuttered their mission in Hebron this month, in apparent violation of Israel's obligations under the 25-year-old Oslo peace accords.
Israel hopes once again to draw a veil over its violent colonisation of the heart of the West Bank's largest Palestinian city. The process of clearing tens of thousands of inhabitants from central Hebron is already well advanced.
Any chance of rousing the international community into even minimal protest was stamped out by the US last week. It blocked a draft resolution at the United Nations Security Council expressing "regret" at Israel's decision, and on Friday added that ending the mandate of the Temporary International Presence in Hebron (TIPH) was an "internal matter" for Israel.
The TIPH was established in 1997 after a diplomatic protocol split the city into two zones, controlled separately by Israel and a Palestinian Authority created by the Oslo accords.
The "temporary" in its name was a reference to the expected five-year duration of the Oslo process. The need for TIPH, most assumed, would vanish when Israel ended the occupation and a Palestinian state was built in its place.
While Oslo put the PA formally in charge of densely populated regions of the occupied territories, Israel was effectively given a free hand in Hebron to entrench its belligerent hold on Palestinian life.
Several hundred extremist Jewish settlers have gradually expanded their illegal enclave in the city centre, backed by more than 1,000 Israeli soldiers. Many Palestinian residents have been forced out while the rest are all but imprisoned in their homes.
TIPH faced an impossible task from the outset: to "maintain normal life" for Hebron's Palestinians in the face of Israel's structural violence.

Netanyahu confirms Israeli military shelled Syrian province to prevent 'Iran entrenchment'
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has confirmed the Israeli army hit targets in Syria in an attempt to discourage Iran from gaining a foothold there. Israeli shells have reportedly hit a hospital and an observation post.
"We operate every day, including yesterday, against Iran and its attempts to entrench itself in the region," Netanyahu said as he was about to depart to the Middle East conference in Warsaw, Poland on Tuesday, confirming a Monday attack on Syria's southern Quneitra province.

Christians United for Israel
Mission and Vision
As the largest pro-Israel organization in the United States, with over 5 million members, Christians United for Israel (CUFI) is also the only Christian organization devoted to transforming millions of pro-Israel Christians into an educated, empowered, and effective force for Israel. The breadth of CUFI's diversity across generational, ethnic, cultural, and denominational lines gives us a tremendous depth of influence and power in our fight for the truth. CUFI played a leading role in efforts to curb Iran's nuclear ambitions, hinder Hezbollah and Hamas' war of terror against Israel, strengthen the Jewish state's ability to defend itself, and defend Israel against the anti-Semitic BDS movement. And we've only just begun.
"I consider CUFI a vital part of Israel's national security." - Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu
Making Israel Stronger and Her People Safer
As the largest pro-Israel grassroots organization in the United States, Christians United for Israel is also the only Christian organization devoted to transforming millions of pro-Israel Christians into an educated, empowered, and effective force for Israel. As we grow in size and influence, CUFI strives to act as a defensive shield against anti-Israel lies, boycotts, bad theology, and political threats that seek to delegitimize Israel's existence and weaken the close relationship between Israel and the United States.

Israel to confiscate 'welfare funds' from Palestine's tax revenue
The Israeli government will approve a law to confiscate funds allocated by the Palestinian Authority (PA) to Palestinians it claims are involved in attacks against Israeli targets, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Sunday.
Israel collects tariffs and duties on behalf of the Ramallah-based PA under 1994 Oslo Accords
"Next Sunday, I will convene the security cabinet and we will make the necessary decision to offset the funds," Netanyahu said during the weekly cabinet meeting.
"The money will be deducted, no one should have any doubt about it," he said.
Last week, the PA threatened not to accept the money if Israel deducts any funds.
In July, the Knesset (Israel's parliament) passed legislation requiring the Defence Ministry to inform the security cabinet of how much the PA pays in "welfare" payments to Palestinians involved in attacks against Israeli targets.

Israel urges Dutch court to dismiss case against Gantz over 2014 Gaza strike
The Justice Ministry on Monday said the government has asked a Dutch court to dismiss war crimes allegations against Israel Resilience party leader Benny Gantz, a former IDF chief of staff who is challenging Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in the April elections.
A Dutch-Palestinian man originally from the Gaza Strip last year sued Gantz and former Air Force chief Amir Eshel for their roles in a 2014 airstrike on his family's home that killed six relatives. The dead included a 72-year-old woman and a 12-year-old child.
The airstrike on the Zeyada family home took place during Operation Protective Edge against terror groups in Gaza.
The ministry said Monday that an internal Israeli military investigation determined the airstrike had killed four terrorists, including three family members, hiding in the house. It said the attack was permissible under international law, and argued the Dutch court does not have jurisdiction. Terror group Hamas - which rules Gaza and openly seeks Israel's destruction - has admitted that two of its members were in the building.
"Israel has several mechanisms in place and a robust legal system available to address allegations such as those raised by the plaintiff," the ministry said.

Netanyahu: 'Pay-for-slay' law will be implemented next week
Let there be no doubt that Israel will deduct money that the Palestinian Authority pays terrorists and their families from the tariffs and duties it collects monthly on behalf of the PA and transfers to Ramallah, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Sunday.
Speaking at the start of the weekly cabinet meeting, Netanyahu said that by the end of the week, the "necessary staff work will be completed to implement the law" to deduct the money from the amount transferred to the PA.
"Next Sunday I will convene the security cabinet and we will make the necessary decision to offset the funds. The money will be deducted, no one should have any doubt about it," he said.
The PA has acknowledged that its annual budget for these payments in both 2017 and 2018 was NIS 1.2 billion.
It said last week that if Israel deducts the funds, the PA will not accept any of the money Israel transfers to it under terms of the Oslo Accords - more than $100 million a month.
On July 7, the Knesset passed legislation introduced by Avi Dichter (Likud) and Elazar Stern (Yesh Atid) requiring the Defense Ministry to inform the security cabinet of how much the PA pays in "welfare payments to terrorists and their families," which will then be deducted from the amount Israel transfers to the PA each month.
This legislation followed passage of the Taylor Force Act in the US, which ended most US assistance to the Palestinians unless the PA stops payments to terrorist and their families, so called "pay-to-slay."
The PA government said last week that the taxes and tariffs collected by Israel belong to the Palestinian public.
"Any deduction from these revenues is nothing but a continuation of Israeli piracy against billions of dollars that Israel has stolen," the PA said in a statement. "This is also a clear and blatant violation of Israeli obligations in accordance with signed agreements, especially the Paris Economic Protocol."

Netanyahu calls for vengeance amid capture of alleged murderer of 19-year-old
"Israel's long hand reaches anyone who harms us," Netanyahu said Saturday night.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, one among many Israeli politicians, called to harm those who attack Israelis after the suspect in the murder of Ori Ansbacher was arrested near Ramallah on Saturday.
"Israel's long hand reaches anyone who harms us," Netanyahu said Saturday night."I congratulate the Shin Bet security services."
"I wish to express my condolences to the Ansbacher family and to give them strength in their time of grief." Netanyahu continued.
President Reuven Rivlin also reacted strongly, condemning terrorism and acts against the law.
"We will seek out the perpetrators and their associates until we find them and punish them to the fullest extent of the law, in every place and wherever they hide from us," Rivlin said after the arrest.
"We will not be deterred and we will not cease our uncompromising fight against terrorism," Rivlin continued.
Otzma Yehudit, an extreme right-wing party, was disappointed with the Shin Bet, lamenting that the security force did not kill the man suspected in murdering the young woman.
"It is very grave that the order for the security forces was not to kill the terrorist," the political party said on Saturday. The group continued to demand the next government pass the law for allowing the death penalty for terrorists.
Other politicians also turned the devastating murder into a conversation about the death penalty.

One might also add that neocons as a group were founded by Jews and are largely Jewish, hence their universal attachment to the state of Israel. They first rose into prominence when they obtained a number of national security positions during the Reagan Administration and their ascendancy was completed when they staffed senior positions in the Pentagon and White House under George W. Bush. Recall for a moment Paul Wolfowitz, Doug Feith, and Scooter Libby. Yes, all Jewish and all conduits for the false information that led to a war that has spread and effectively destroyed much of the Middle East. Except for Israel, of course. Philip Zelikow, also Jewish, in a moment of candor, admitted that the Iraq War, in his opinion, was fought for Israel.
Add to the folly a Jewish U.S. Ambassador to Israel who identifies with the most right-wing Israeli settler elements, a White House appointed chief negotiator who is Jewish and a Jewish son-in-law who is also involved in formulating Middle East policy. Is anyone providing an alternative viewpoint to eternal and uncritical support for Benjamin Netanyahu and his kleptocratic regime of racist thugs? I think not.

Israel paper: US interfering in polls to help Netanyahu?
An Israeli paper speculates that the administration of US President Donald Trump could be meddling in Israel's elections to help secure a win for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
In a report on Tuesday, The Jerusalem Post raised the suspicion after Trump shared a photo directly from Netanyahu's Instagram account, which showed an election poster made by Netanyahu's ruling Likud party of the two shaking hands and smiling.
The advertisement captioned "Netanyahu: In a different league" prompted similar criticism after first showing up in Tel Aviv.
It has now turned up elsewhere across streets in the Israeli-occupied territories, said Arutz Sheva on its website.
The Jerusalem Post further pointed to the large numbers of likes and comments under Trump's share, saying this raised "concerns about election interference."
The network went as far as saying Likud had "recruited" Trump to promote its election chances.
Late last month, it was reported that the party had released a promotional video glorifying the two politicians' relationship by boasting about Trump's relocation of the US embassy from Tel Aviv to the holy occupied city of Jerusalem al-Quds last May.
The embassy relocation flew in the face of internationally-recognized Palestinian demands that the occupied city's eastern part serve as the capital of their future state.
It also circumvented a United Nations General Assembly resolution that had called on Trump to retract its recognition of al-Quds as Israel's "capital," which he had announced in late 2017.
Likud's video begins with a text on the screen stating, "They said it's impossible," referring to the embassy transfer.
It also features Trump's announcement of the relocation and Netanyahu's statement that "the US embassy needs to be here, in Jerusalem (al-Quds)."
Trump began contributing to Netanyahu's political powerbase in 2013, when he appeared in a video made by a Likud promoter, voicing all-out verbal support for the premier. "
So vote for Benjamin, terrific guy, terrific leader, great for Israel," Trump had said in the footage.
Netanyahu faces four corruption cases, and reports say Israeli Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit has reached a decision to indict him prior to April's elections on bribery charges. He has been the target of regular protests, including in front of Mandelblit's residence in northern Israel, in favor of his resignation.

Netanyahu rival: Israeli control of Palestine wrong
JERUSALEM (AP) - The leading challenger to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in a published interview Wednesday that Israel should "find a way" to end its control over the Palestinians.
Former military chief Benny Gantz made the comments in an interview with the Ynet news site. It was his first interview with the Israeli media since his maiden political speech last week.
Gantz, a tall, telegenic former general, has shot up in opinion polls since last week's speech. Leading a new centrist party called "Israel Resilience," he has emerged as a formidable challenger to the front-running Netanyahu in April 9 elections.
He has so far said little about the Palestinian issue, or whether he supports the establishment of a Palestinian state. But in Wednesday's interview, he said the continued rule over the Palestinians is not an Israeli interest.
"We need to find a way in which we're not controlling other people," he said.
With peace talks frozen throughout most of Netanyahu's decadelong rule, Gantz's comments were welcomed by the Palestinians.
"It's encouraging if he succeeds and he sticks to this opinion," Nabil Abu Rdeneh, spokesman for President Mahmoud Abbas, told reporters.
In the interview, Gantz was asked whether he favored another unilateral move similar to the Gaza pullout, which is widely seen as a failure in Israel. Two years after the pullout, the Hamas militant group seized control of Gaza.
Gantz said the withdrawal was a "diplomatic move" by the government that was carried out in a "painful but good manner."

Iron Alliance: U.S. To Purchase Israel's Iron Dome Weapons Defense System
On Wednesday, the United States Army confirmed that plans have been finalized to buy two of Israel's Iron Dome weapons system batteries for $373 million.
The two batteries will include 12 launchers, two radars, two battlement management centers, and 240 interceptors, the Times of Israel reports.
In a statement, U.S. Army Col. Patrick Seiber said that the Army will determine if the system can be used to protect U.S. military service members.
"The Iron Dome will be assessed and experimented as a system that is currently available to protect deployed U.S. military service members against a wide variety of indirect fire threats and aerial threats," Seiber said, according to CNN. "While Iron Dome has been in operational use by the Israeli Air Force since 2011 and proven effective in combat, it should be noted that the U.S. Army will assess a variety of options for its long-term IFPC solution."
"No decisions have been made regarding the fielding or experimentation of Iron Dome in specific theaters," Seiber added.
The U.S. Army reportedly plans to spend an additional $1.6 billion to integrate the Iron Dome system with the U.S. Army's Sentinel radar and IBCS.
Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who also serves as the country's defense minister, was enthusiastic about the deal, calling it a "great achievement."
"This is a great achievement for Israel and yet another expression of the strengthening of our powerful alliance with the US and an expression of Israel's rising status in the world," Netanyahu said in a statement, reports the Times of Israel. "Israel has an Iron Dome and an iron fist. Our systems know how to deal with any threat, both in defense and in attack. I would not recommend our enemies to try us."
The military has reportedly been exploring plans to acquire a system with interim cruise missile defense capability by 2020 and made the decision due to the Iron Dome being the only option that met the "immediate need."
The U.S. heavily subsidized the development of the Iron Dome, providing more than $1.4 billion for batteries developed by Israel's Rafael Advanced Defense Systems.
"The United States government and taxpayer have supported the development and production of Iron Dome program for many years now and so, in that respect, this is not turning to a stranger but to a close partner," Tom Karako, a missile defense expert at the Center for Strategic and International Studies in Washington, D.C. said.

"Largest Land Grab Since 1948" - Israel to Expel 36,000 Palestinians From Negev
According to an Israeli media report, the Israeli government has completed work on a massive, far-reaching plan that would expel an estimated 36,000 Palestinians from "unrecognized" villages in the Negev Desert. If the plan is approved by the Knesset, Israel's legislative body, its implementation could begin as soon as this year and would take four years to complete. News of the plan was first published by Israel Hayom - Israel's largest Hebrew-language newspaper, funded by Sheldon Adelson, the top donor to both U.S. President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
The plan - compiled by Uri Ariel, Israel's Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development, and his staff - features the seizure of an estimated 260,00 dunams(64,247 acres) from Palestine's Bedouins. The size of the territory in question and the high number of Palestinians set to be affected has led some to call the plan the largest "land grab" of Palestinian-inhabited land since 1948, when the state of Israel was founded.
Israel Hayom's report stated that, per the new plan, the Palestinian villages would be demolished and the ruins of their homes would then become the sites of "national projects," infrastructure projects, and "security" installations after the forcible "transfer" of the land's current inhabitants to other "state-approved" settlements such as Tel Sheva, Abu Talul and Umm Batin. The report noted that a major motivation behind the plan's creation was the transfer of an arms-industry factory from another part of Israel to the Negev, as well as the expansion of the "Trans-Israel Highway" system.
Furthermore, the plan involves calling for a budget increase to boost the presence of law enforcement officials involved in the forcible "transfer" and in the demolition of Palestinian villages.
Rights groups have yet to comment on the newly announced plan targeting Palestinian communities in the Negev. However, Human Rights Watch has previously condemned Israel's targeting of "unrecognized" Palestinian villages in the region. In 2016, Sarah Leah Whitson, executive director of Human Rights Watch's Middle East and North Africa Division, stated:
"The forcible eviction of Bedouin residents to make way for a new Jewish town would be a blatant and ugly episode of discrimination mirroring Israel's unlawful settlements. Long after most of the rest of the world has such rejected racist policies, the Israeli government keeps building and razing communities on the basis of religion and ethnicity."

SEP 2001 Zionist attack planned since 1988 takes place, blamed on Muslims
SEP 2001 Cheney controls USG response to 9/11, makes its happen
DETAILED ZIONIST-ORIENTED CHRONOLOGY:
Philip Zelikow was ordered to manage a cover-up of 9/11 and joined Dick Cheney and FBI Director Robert Mueller as the critical enabler of this Zionist atrocity that murdered over 3,000 as a combination of commercial insurance fraud and false flag pretext for war.All of the Commissioners on the 9/11 Commission were complicit in the cover up with the exception of Max Cleland who resigned in protest - one of them, Thomas Kean, should have been disqualified since he is suspect as the former Governor of New Jersey when the plot was in gestation.
This year President Donald Trump chose to ignore his promise to get to the bottom of 9/11 this past September. BUT the US Attorney for the Southern District has accepted the demand of the Lawyer's Committee of Inquiry into 9/11 for a criminal grand jury. While I question the integrity of the US Attorney for the Southern District - I believe they will slow roll the grand jury and not actually do anything - the ball has started rolling - justice will be done. We will inevitably get to the bottom of 9/11 and I believe that this will impact on 2020, destroying Chuck Schumer and Debbie Wasserman Schultz in passing (it also makes Howard Schultz, a known Zionist, a zero as a candidate in 2020).

Israel's Prime Minister said on Sunday that the General Election campaign would not stop his government from bombing the Gaza Strip or Iran, Anadolu has reported. The election is due to be held in April.
"If calm is not maintained in Gaza, Israel will not hesitate to move against it even during the election period," Benjamin Netanyahu told his weekly Cabinet meeting. "I [also] have a message to the tyrants in Tehran: Israel will continue moving overtly to protect its future."
The Israeli occupation authorities continue to fear any Palestinian retaliation for the Israel Defence Forces' ongoing aggression and killing of unarmed demonstrators taking part in the Great March of Return protests along the nominal border between the Gaza Strip and Israel. Protesters are calling for an end to the 12-year siege of Gaza led by Israel, and to reinforce their legitimate right to return to their homes and land occupied since Israel was created in 1948.

Netanyahu Uses Trump Pictures In Israeli Election Campaign
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is using pictures of himself with US President Donald Trump in his election campaign poster.
The poster from Netanyahu's ruling Likud Party shows the two leaders shaking hands under the headline "Netanyahu, in a different league," with "The Likud" at the bottom.
The slogan refers to Trump's apparently strong relationship with Netanyahu. After all, in 2018 the POTUS fulfilled his election promise to move the US embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, sparking anger worldwide. The move was widely praised by the Jewish parties across Israel's normally very partisan political spectrum.
Trump also appeared in a Likud campaign video shared to Netanyahu's Facebook page last week which celebrated the US recognition of Jerusalem as Israel's capital, a claim much of the world disagrees with.

Published time: 4 Feb, 2019 14:29 Edited time: 4 Feb, 2019 16:38
Israel says that work to strengthen its border with the Gaza Strip had entered a new phase, with construction starting on a massive new barrier along the frontier. "Over the weekend we began building the above-ground barrier along the Gaza border," Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Sunday before the weekly Cabinet meeting. The barrier will be 6 meters high (20ft) and is designed to "prevent terrorists from Gaza from penetrating into our territory on the ground," he said. A Defense Ministry statement said that work on the structure began last Thursday. It is set to follow the 65-kilometer (41 miles) course of an underground barrier which is also under construction and meant to neutralize the threat of cross-border "tunnels" built by Gaza's armed groups, AFP reports.

Some interesting stuff here.
I wonder hoe long it can stay up on line?
The Middle East is controlled largely by Benjamin Netanyahu which should not come as much of a surprise. Netanyahu does not have as much control as you would think however. As I have stated before, Israel is the grand puppet state of the Illuminati.They will do absolutely anything that the Illuminati wants them to do, and they will do it to the best of their ability without even thinking twice. Israel has been given the permission to fire upon Iran whenever it wishes to do so.

Netanyahu says Iran controls Lebanese government through Hezbollah
TELL AVIV, February 3. /TASS/. Iran controls the Lebanese government via the Hezbollah movement, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Sunday.
"Iran has proxies. One of them is Hezbollah. Hezbollah just joined the government of Lebanon. That's a misnomer; they actually control the government of Lebanon. It means that Iran controls the government of Lebanon," Netanyahu's office quoted him as saying at a meeting with a delegation of UN ambassadors who arrived in Israel to make a trip of the northern border.
It was Netanyahu's first commentary following the formation of a new Lebanese government next Thursday.
"A great shift has taken place in the Middle East. That shift is the rise of the aggressive theocracy of Iran that seeks to conquer the Middle East, eliminate Israel and dominate many other parts of the world," the Israeli prime minister said and asked the UN ambassadors to convey the message that Israel will "stop all the aggression; from Lebanon or from Syria or from Iran itself."
"We are committed to preventing this aggression, and in so doing we're not only protecting Israel itself, but also protecting our neighbors and world peace," he stressed.
It took Lebanese Prime Minister Saad Hariri more than eight months to form a new government of 30 ministers. Two of the thirty are women. Eleven ministerial portfolios went to the Strong Lebanon Bloc which supports the country's President Michel Aoun. The government also includes representatives of the Al-Mustaqbal Sunni movement, the Lebanese Forces Christian party, the Hezbollah and Amal Shia movements, the Druze and Armenian communities.

"Largest Land Grab Since 1948" - Israel to Expel 36,000 Palestinians From Negev
Given the Israeli state's rejection of their existence, government officials have called the Palestinians living in these villagers "violators" and "squatters" - accusing them of illegally occupying "state lands."
TEL AVIV, ISRAEL - According to an Israeli media report, the Israeli government has completed work on a massive, far-reaching plan that would expel an estimated 36,000 Palestinians from "unrecognized" villages in the Negev Desert. If the plan is approved by the Knesset, Israel's legislative body, its implementation could begin as soon as this year and would take four years to complete. News of the plan was first published by Israel Hayom - Israel's largest Hebrew-language newspaper, funded by Sheldon Adelson, the top donor to both U.S. President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
The plan - compiled by Uri Ariel, Israel's Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development, and his staff - features the seizure of an estimated 260,00 dunams (64,247 acres) from Palestine's Bedouins. The size of the territory in question and the high number of Palestinians set to be affected has led some to call the plan the largest "land grab" of Palestinian-inhabited land since 1948, when the state of Israel was founded.
Israel Hayom's report stated that, per the new plan, the Palestinian villages would be demolished and the ruins of their homes would then become the sites of "national projects," infrastructure projects, and "security" installations after the forcible "transfer" of the land's current inhabitants to other "state-approved" settlements such as Tel Sheva, Abu Talul and Umm Batin. The report noted that a major motivation behind the plan's creation was the transfer of an arms-industry factory from another part of Israel to the Negev, as well as the expansion of the "Trans-Israel Highway" system.

The senior state prosecutor who oversaw the police investigation into one of the three corruption cases facing Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu regards it as "a clear case of bribery" involving hundreds of millions of shekels, according to a transcript of discussions with her boss, Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit, quoted by Israeli television on Friday night.
Mandelblit, Israel's top legal officer, is expected to publish his conclusions on the three cases within the next few weeks, having informed Netanyahu's lawyers earlier Friday that he has rejected the prime minister's demand that any decision to indict be postponed until after Israel's April 9 elections.
According to Channel 13 News, which presented what it said were transcripts from the discussions Mandelblit has been holding with his state prosecution team as he reviews the cases against Netanyahu, prosecutor Liat Ben-Ari told Mandelbit she has no doubt that the prime minister should be prosecuted over Case 4000, reportedly the most serious of the three cases.

Jew site gives dems tips to avoid the false binary "with-Israel-or-against-Israel" trap
This is how (((they))) play both parties
On Monday night, the United States Senate voted to advance a bill that will quash free speech in the name of supporting Israel. It's just one more sign that Israel-Palestine is being used as a potent weapon in today's political arena.
The bill is S. 1, aka the "Strengthening America's Security in the Middle East Act of 2019." S. 1 was introduced by an all-GOP set of sponsors back on January 3. A grab-bag of Israel and Middle East-related measures, it also includes the "Combating BDS Act," a controversial bill which would grant federal cover to laws passed by U.S. states that, in the name of supporting Israel, require companies and even individual contractors to sign away their right to engage in boycotts of Israel or its settlements.
The ACLU says these state laws are unconstitutional. Federal judges in Kansas and Arizona agree. So do constitutional law scholars and free speech experts.
But AIPAC and its fellow travelers, both in the GOP and among hardline pro-Israel forces, reject such views, albeit with arguments that stand up poorly to fact-checking. Instead, they have been framing these state laws, and S. 1, as political litmus tests of pro-Israel bona fides.
For the past three weeks, Senate Democrats, with the notable exceptions of Senators Dianne Feinstein, Patrick Leahy and Bernie Sanders, avoided dealing with the substance of S. 1, arguing instead over its timing and insisting on the impropriety of dealing with any business until the government was re-opened.
Now, with the government open again, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has, predictably, made S.1 the first item on the Senate's agenda.
In doing so, McConnell, the GOP, and pro-Israel hardliners have set a political trap for congressional Democrats. Anyone who opposes the bill will be labeled anti-Israel and even anti-Semitic.
Legitimate disagreements about Israel have been inflated, inflamed, and cynically repurposed as political cudgels wielded to fracture progressive unity and organizing.
With S. 1 and the Combating BDS Act (and no doubt coming soon, a re-upping of the brazenly unconstitutional Israel Anti-Boycott Act) McConnell and friends are now working to undermine democratic freedoms and further codify a definition of pro-Israel that is as anathema to the real interests of Israel as it is to the American Constitution.
And as important, they are manufacturing a false binary, a "with-Israel-or-against-Israel" debate, designed to divide Democrats, to quash debate, to delegitimize and marginalize powerful emerging progressive voices, and to fracture and weaken the progressive grassroots.
Progressive leaders and elected officials can break this false binary, but only by acting with courage and conviction, re-claiming the moral high ground by affirmatively and unapologetically defining "pro-Israel" in terms that uphold liberal values, protect free speech and defend the legitimacy of differences of opinion among progressives when it comes to Israel-Palestine.
Unless and until they do, progressives will be caught between the same rock and hard place, time and again. So long as the likes of McConnell, AIPAC, Sheldon Adelson and Benjamin Netanyahu are allowed to dictate the limits of acceptable discourse and opinion on Israel, and to impose a definition of "pro-Israel" that is inconsistent with liberal values, progressives are preordained to get hammered politically.
Monday's vote wasn't a final vote on S. 1. And yet, the vote did suggest that progressive Democrats are beginning to understand how Israel and BDS are being used to manipulate them into betraying their values and undermining their own cause. 19 Democratic Senators voted "no" on S.1, including three presidential contenders - Gillibrand, Sanders and Brown. And equally notable on a vote of this nature and profile, two other presidential contenders, Kamala Harris and Corey Booker were no-votes.
While not a wholesale rejection of the false binary that seeks to force progressives into a zero-sum choice between defending their values and supporting Israel, this was a promising start. It suggests that it may not be naive to hope that progressives can grow stronger and more united in standing with their values and their voters, and in so doing, free themselves entirely from the "with-Israel-or-against-Israel" trap.

Q Research General #6362: "A false narrative is so bad for our Country" Edition

Noahide Project seeks to create a world religion whose believers adore Israel
"Our friends all over the world, the Noahides... You are the lucid persons in a perplex world. You are the hope of the world. Happy good day." Thus, in somewhat broken English, Rabbi Oury Cherki, head of the Noahide World Center, greeted his followers in a video clip on the occasion of "Humanity Day," the holiday of the Noahides (also known as Children of Noah), which was last celebrated on the 27th day of the Hebrew month of Marheshvan (Nov. 10, 2017). According to Jewish tradition, it was on that day that Noah and his family emerged from the ark and received the seven commandments that apply to all human beings, among them the prohibitions on idol worship, on murder and on eating flesh torn from a living animal. When Noah left the ark, he built an altar and made a sacrifice. Which is why the Noahides eat grilled meat on their holiday.
A new religion, subordinate to Judaism
But who are these Noahides? They are members of a new religion, subordinate to Judaism, founded by rabbis from Israel, mainly from Chabad and the religious Zionist movement. According to the World Center, there are dozens of Noahide communities across the world, with more than 20,000 believers. That's a hefty number, given that the religion was only founded at the beginning of the decade. Small Noahide communities exist in various countries, with the largest one in the Philippines.
Cooperation between Israel and the Philippines is constantly growing, and this week reached new heights with the visit to Israel of the country's president, Rodrigo Duterte. The Philippines are a key arena of Chabad activity, and one of the primary venues where the new religion is being disseminated. There are four Chabad centers in the country, and in addition to assisting Jews, they support 10 Noahide houses of prayer. The Hasidic emissaries view the Philippines community as the model for Noahide communities in other countries. A group from the community was brought to Israel two years ago, and its members met with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who has also sent his greetings to all the communities worldwide.
That there are countries in which groups and communities identify themselves as belonging to the Jewish people, or as descendants of the 10 lost tribes of Israel, is nothing new. Similarly, we're familiar with Christians who admire Israel. But the Noahides are a theological phenomenon of very recent vintage. It's a form of Zionist mission, which seeks to create a world religion whose believers adore the Jewish people and the State of Israel - without belonging to either. The believers are required to accept the supremacy of Judaism but are not accepted into the Jewish people and are even barred from upholding such commandments as Sabbath observance. Anyone who wishes to be a Noahide is called upon mainly to recognize the Jewish people and its state.

Jared Kushner, the Trump's son-in-law and close adviser, and Jason Greenblatt, the president's special envoy to the Middle East, will participate in the discussions in Warsaw in two weeks, which will focus on pushing back against Iran's influence and restoring stability to the region.
The participation of Kushner and Greenblatt at the event means that there could also be some discussions about the Trump administration's Mideast peace plan, a project the two advisers have been working on for the past year and a half. The plan is supposed to be released at some point after the Israeli election in April, although no clear date has been set. Some countries in the region are skeptical that it will be published, after there have been reports anticipating its release ever since last summer.

by Benjamin Fulford, January 28th, 2019
The battle for the planet Earth is intensifying as the satanic ruling Western cabal is cornered, dangerous, and literally fighting for its life. The cabal are now fighting desperately to stay in power by stealing the oil reserves of Venezuela, because they are doomed if they lose control of the financial system and thus their ability to hire protection. More and more whistleblowers are coming out and confirming that they really do torture and murder children, and continue to try to murder the majority of the Earth's population.
For example, the British newspaper The Guardian is now confirming what we have long been reporting, which is that HIV/AIDS was deliberately spread in an attempt to depopulate Africa.
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2019/jan/27/south-african-intelligence-officers-spread-aids-black-communities
Years ago we reported that a Dr. Michael Meiring told us that he, together with polio vaccine pioneer Dr. Jonas Salk, participated in the spreading of HIV by inserting it into polio vaccines given to 2 million Africans. The initial geography of the breakout of HIV/AIDS in Africa corresponds precisely with the geography of the polio vaccination campaign. We will not get into it again here in detail, but we assure you that ebola, SARS, avian influenza, etc. were also deliberately spread as a part of this depopulation agenda.

We are also hearing from more whistleblowers who describe how members of the Western ruling elite sacrifice children as part of their worship of Ba'al, otherwise known as Moloch, Set, Satan, etc. We will discuss a couple of the latest gruesome revelations below, but first let us look at the ongoing global power struggle.
In their latest gambit, the satanic Khazarian mafia is now trying to preserve its control of the petrodollar-based financial system by seizing the oil reserves of Venezuela. Self-described Satanist Leo Zagami is calling on all Freemasons to back "opposition leader Freemason Juan Guaido" as president fighting for "Freemasonry and Christianity," against the communist Pope Francis and the "communist Jesuits."
https://leozagami.com/2019/01/25/freemasons-vs-jesuits-in-venezuela/
Venezuela has 303 billion barrels worth of oil, the world's largest oil reserves, and its efforts to remove this oil from the Khazarian mafia's petrodollar system is the real reason for the attempt to overthrow President Nicolas Maduro.
https://www.zerohedge.com/s3/files/inline-images/2019-01-24_16-59-31_0.jpg?itok=85Nbaoy9
https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2019-01-24/american-empire-pivots-toward-venezuela
In fact, the failure to overthrow Maduro is a "fall of the Berlin Wall" type of moment for the Khazarian mafia. As Pentagon sources explain, "the Neocon coup against Maduro failed, as the U.S. military, the Vatican, Mexico the EU, South Africa, Russia, China, Iran, Turkey, India, Cuba, Nicaragua, Bolivia, and other nations don't go along." Also, "Brazil and Colombia refuse to invade or allow use of their bases, there is no UN recognition of puppet Guaido, and even the Organization of American States failed (16 out of 34) to get enough votes." It should also be noted that Russia sent nuclear bombers to protect Venezuela, and elite bodyguards to protect Maduro.
This whole operation, by the way, has been run by convicted Iran Contra criminal Elliott Abrams, Senator Marco Rubio, and the satanist crime minister of Israel Benjamin Netanyahu.
This move against Venezuela comes as the admittedly undemocratic EU has struck another blow at the Khazarian petrodollar system by designating Saudi Arabia as a terror-funding country. This announcement comes as the EU has come up with a special purpose vehicle to avoid Khazarian-led sanctions against Iran.

https://www.jpost.com/Arab-Israeli-Conflict/Will-EU-financial-vehicle-to-beat-USs-Iran-sanctions-be-a-game-changer-578541
This brings us to the arrest by Canada of Huawei CFO Meng Wanzhou "for committing fraud" by lying to American banks about her company's ties to a telecommunications firm that did business in Iran "in a breach of sanctions on Iran." Canada's Zionist-slave Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was forced to fire Canada's ambassador to China because the ambassador told the truth by mentioning, among other things, that Canada did not even support the "Iran sanctions" to which the arrest was supposedly tied.

Israeli PM plans to boot TIPH observers protecting Palestinians out of al-Khalil
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has decided to expel an international observer group tasked with safeguarding Palestinians in the flashpoint city of al-Khalil (Hebron), in the occupied West Bank, claiming the mission is working against Israel.
Netanyahu announced in a statement on Monday that the mandate of the Temporary International Presence in Hebron (al-Khalil) would not be extended, saying, "We will not allow the continuation of an international force that acts against us."
The Israeli premier did not give further details on the alleged misconduct of TIPH, nor did he specify a date for ejecting the international mission.
TIPH is an international civilian observer group that, according to its mandate, "assists in monitoring and reporting efforts to maintain normal life in the city of Hebron, thus creating a sense of security among the Palestinians in Hebron."
It also reports alleged human rights abuses and violations of accords in the city between Israel and Palestinians. TIPH observers come from Norway, Denmark, Sweden, Switzerland, Italy, and Turkey.
The mission was deployed in al-Khalil following an agreement reached between Israel and the Palestinian Authority (PA) in 1994, when an Israeli settler killed 29 Palestinian worshipers at the Ibrahimi Mosque, which is revered by Jews, Christians and Muslims.
The group did not start its work in the city until 1998, after the Israeli military refused to leave al-Khalil following the establishment of an illegal Israeli settlement at the heart of the city.
TIPH's mandate is renewed every six months. Its latest mandate is due to end on January 31.
Netanyahu's decision 'unacceptable'
Palestinians have denounced Netanyahu's decision to expel the monitoring group as "unacceptable."
The decision "means it has abandoned the implementation of agreements signed under international auspices, and given up its obligations under these agreements, which is rejected and is unacceptable," Nabil Abu Rudeineh, spokesman for Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas said Monday.
The official further called on "the countries sponsoring this agreement to take a clear stance" against Israel's plan and "immediately act to pressure" the regime into respecting international law.

Iran attacks Israel in cybersphere 'daily,' Netanyahu charges
PM hails Jewish state's prowess, says it monitors and foils all of the Islamic Republic's attempts to penetrate its defenses
Iranian hackers target Israel every day, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu charged at a cybersecurity conference in Tel Aviv on Tuesday.
"Iran attacks Israel on a daily basis," he told a gathering of government officials, cybersecurity experts and entrepreneurs at the CyberTech conference. "We monitor these attacks, we see these attacks and we foil these attacks all the time."
Israeli officials have long accused Iran of seeking to hack important systems, as well as voiced concerns that it could try to meddle in the April 6 elections. The Islamic Republic has also been named by other Western powers as a rising force in cyberwarfare.
Meanwhile, Tehran's nuclear program has reportedly been the target of several powerful attacks by Israel and the United States,
In his Tuesday speech, Netanyahu also hailed Israel's cybersecurity experience and general technology prowess, saying they created diplomatic inroads for the nation.
"Every single county is talking to us about cyber," Netanyahu said.
"That does not mean we share with everyone," he added, but Israel has a policy to cooperate with governments and other organizations. "It is important to continue cooperation for defense."
Israel's cyber industry is second only to that of the US, taking 20 percent of the overall venture-backed cyber investments worldwide, according to an analysis by PitchBook and the Start-Up Nation Central database.
Netanyahu singled out airlines as the most vulnerable, via ground control hacking or interference with systems in planes.
"Civil aviation requires the most immediate treatment for cyber defense," he said. "But it is one of hundreds."

Israeli leaders appeal to voters with pride in their crimes against Palestinians
Earlier this week, the former chief of staff of the Israeli Army, General Benny Gantz, started his election campaign by taking pride in the destruction of the Gaza Strip and his troops' killing of hundreds of Palestinians. He published a series of short videos, one of which included horrific scenes of the massive destruction inflicted in 2014 on the coastal enclave, which has been under a strict Israeli-led siege for over 12 years. Gantz is proud that he could send Gaza "back to the Stone Age" and boasted that he destroyed 6,231 targets and killed 1,364 "terrorists" in exchange for three and a half years of quiet. He concluded with the slogan "Only the Strong Win".
In another video, dating back to Israel's 2012 military offensive on Gaza, Gantz showed the footage of an Israeli aircraft striking the car carrying Ahmad Al-Jaabari, the deputy commander of the Hamas military wing. "Jaabari felt safe, but Gantz thought another way," say the subtitles. A third video has footage of a funeral for Palestinian martyrs, including civilian police officers; an on-screen digital counter starts at 1 and reaches 1,364, the number of the "terrorists" he killed during the 2014 offensive against what former British Prime Minister David Cameron described as the largest open-air prisoner in the world.
After a successful test of Israel's Arrow missile-defence system on Tuesday, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu expressed his pride in the anti-ballistic missiles and pledged to "crush" the "enemies" of the state of Israel. "We will continue to develop the most advanced weapon systems in the world to ensure the security of the State of Israel and our citizens," he said.

Benny Gantz and Israel's drive to become a modern-day Sparta
The former army chief may present a challenge to Benjamin Netanyahu, but his campaign's exultation of destruction and oppression is chilling
With April's elections looming, Benjamin Netanyahu has good reason to fear Benny Gantz, his former army chief. Gantz has launched a new party, named Israeli Resilience, just as the net of corruption indictments is closing around the prime minister.
Already, at this early stage of campaigning, some 31 per cent of the Israeli public prefer Gantz to head the next government over Netanyahu, who is only months away from becoming the longest-serving leader in Israel's history.
Gantz is being feted as the new hope, a chance to change direction after a series of governments under Netanyahu's leadership have over the past decade shifted Israel ever further to the right.
Like Israel's former politician generals, from Yitzhak Rabin to Ehud Barak and Ariel Sharon, Gantz is being portrayed - and portraying himself - as a battle-hardened warrior, able to make peace from a position of strength.
Before he had issued a single policy statement, polls showed him winning 15 of the 120 parliamentary seats, a welcome sign for those hoping that a centre-left coalition can triumph this time.
But the reality of what Gantz stands for - revealed this week in his first election videos - is far from reassuring.
In 2014, he led Israel into its longest and most savage military operation in living memory: 50 days in which the tiny coastal enclave of Gaza was bombarded relentlessly.
By the end, one of the most densely populated areas on earth - its two million inhabitants already trapped by a lengthy Israeli blockade - lay in ruins. More than 2,200 Palestinians were killed in the onslaught, a quarter of them children, while tens of thousands were left homeless.
The world watched, appalled. Investigations by human rights groups such as Amnesty International concluded that Israel had committed war crimes.
One might have assumed that during the election campaign Gantz would wish to draw a veil over this troubling period in his military career. Not a bit of it.
One of his campaign videos soars over the rubble of Gaza, proudly declaring that Gantz was responsible for destroying many thousands of buildings. "Parts of Gaza have been returned to the Stone Age," the video boasts.
This is a reference to the Dahiya doctrine, a strategy devised by the Israeli military command of which Gantz was a core member. The aim is to lay waste to the modern infrastructure of Israel's neighbours, forcing survivors to eke out a bare existence rather than resist Israel.
The collective punishment inherent in the apocalyptic Dahiya doctrine is an undoubted war crime.
More particularly, the video exults in the destruction of Rafah, a city in Gaza that suffered the most intense bout of bombing after an Israeli soldier was seized by Hamas. In minutes, Israel's indiscriminate bombardment killed at least 135 Palestinian civilians and wrecked a hospital.

A new religion, subordinate to Judaism
But who are these Noahides? They are members of a new religion, subordinate to Judaism, founded by rabbis from Israel, mainly from Chabad and the religious Zionist movement. According to the World Center, there are dozens of Noahide communities across the world, with more than 20,000 believers. That's a hefty number, given that the religion was only founded at the beginning of the decade. Small Noahide communities exist in various countries, with the largest one in the Philippines.
Cooperation between Israel and the Philippines is constantly growing, and this week reached new heights with the visit to Israel of the country's president, Rodrigo Duterte. The Philippines are a key arena of Chabad activity, and one of the primary venues where the new religion is being disseminated. There are four Chabad centers in the country, and in addition to assisting Jews, they support 10 Noahide houses of prayer. The Hasidic emissaries view the Philippines community as the model for Noahide communities in other countries. A group from the community was brought to Israel two years ago, and its members met with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who has also sent his greetings to all the communities worldwide.
That there are countries in which groups and communities identify themselves as belonging to the Jewish people, or as descendants of the 10 lost tribes of Israel, is nothing new. Similarly, we're familiar with Christians who admire Israel. But the Noahides are a theological phenomenon of very recent vintage. It's a form of Zionist mission, which seeks to create a world religion whose believers adore the Jewish people and the State of Israel - without belonging to either. The believers are required to accept the supremacy of Judaism but are not accepted into the Jewish people and are even barred from upholding such commandments as Sabbath observance. Anyone who wishes to be a Noahide is called upon mainly to recognize the Jewish people and its state.
Last month, Nova Religio, a journal devoted to emergent and alternative religions, published an article by Rachel Z. Feldman, assistant professor of religious studies at Franklin and Marshall College, in Pennsylvania, titled "The Children of Noah: Has Messianic Zionism Created a New World Religion?" In the summer of 2017, Feldman visited Noahide communities on the Filipino island of Cebu, which are supervised by Chabad rabbis. Like most Noahides around the world, the members of the Cebu community came mostly from Protestant churches, but had abandoned their belief in the New Testament.

US praises Israel for backing 'forces of freedom & democracy' in Venezuela
Israel has moved to recognize Juan Guaido's claim to power in Venezuela, after Washington spearheaded the regime change effort, urging those undecided to "pick a side," and its EU allies issued an ultimatum to Nicholas Maduro.
"Israel joins the United States, Canada, most of the countries of Latin America and countries in Europe in recognizing the new leadership in Venezuela," Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in a brief statement on Sunday. However, unlike many of those who denounced President Nicholas Maduro as a 'dictator' and 'usurper' and urged him to step aside, Netanyahu stopped short of openly calling for any action that might fuel internal conflict in Venezuela.

Noahide Project seeks to create a world religion whose believers adore Israel
The Noahide Project has the support of Israel's Chief Rabbinate and the Israeli government. Noahides are members of a new religion founded by rabbis from Israel, mainly from Chabad and the religious Zionist movement - a form of Zionist mission that seeks to create a world religion whose believers adore the Jewish people and the State of Israel... the first Noahide gathering took place in Texas in 1990 and was attended by Rabbi Meir Kahane...
"Our friends all over the world, the Noahides... You are the lucid persons in a perplex world. You are the hope of the world. Happy good day." Thus, in somewhat broken English, Rabbi Oury Cherki, head of the Noahide World Center, greeted his followers in a video clip on the occasion of "Humanity Day," the holiday of the Noahides (also known as Children of Noah), which was last celebrated on the 27th day of the Hebrew month of Marheshvan (Nov. 10, 2017). According to Jewish tradition, it was on that day that Noah and his family emerged from the ark and received the seven commandments that apply to all human beings, among them the prohibitions on idol worship, on murder and on eating flesh torn from a living animal. When Noah left the ark, he built an altar and made a sacrifice. Which is why the Noahides eat grilled meat on their holiday.

Israel Recognises Guaido as Venezuela's President - Netanyahu
On Saturday, Venezuelan military attache in Washington Col. Jose Luis Silva called on the international community to recognise Juan Guaido, who declared himself the interim president of Venezuela, as the country's new head of state.
Israel recognises the head of Venezuela's opposition-controlled National Assembly, Juan Guaido, as the new leader of the Latin American country, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Sunday in a video statement.
"Israel joins the United States, Canada, most of the countries of Latin America and countries in Europe in recognising the new leadership in Venezuela," Netanyahu said in a statement published on his Facebook page.
On Saturday, France, Germany, Spain and the United Kingdom called on Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro to hold a "free and transparent" snap election. If he fails to do so within eight days, they threatened to recognise Juan Guaido as the country's interim president.
The situation in Venezuela escalated earlier this week after on Tuesday the opposition-controlled National Assembly declared that Maduro had usurped power. Next day, the assembly's Speaker Juan Guaido proclaimed himself interim president.
Following the announcement, a number of countries, including the United States, recognised Guaido as the interim president. The move prompted current Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro to cut off diplomatic ties with Washington.

Netanyahu denounces Israeli TV channels as 'propaganda' brainwashing public ahead of elections
Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu has attacked the country's largest news channels as "propaganda," claiming they are conspiring to "brainwash" the public into deposing him on Election Day as he braces for a possible indictment.
"Channels 12 and 13 will try to brainwash you every night with unending false and distorted leaks" from the ongoing criminal probes that have dogged his reelection campaign, Netanyahu warned in a tweet in Hebrew, warning that "Leaks from investigations are a criminal offense with a maximum three-year sentence!"
Even while dismissing Channel 13 as propaganda, Netanyahu sent his associates to the station to accuse State Prosecutor Shai Nitzan of "subverting democracy" by pushing Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit to indict the PM on bribery charges before the election. Nitzan, they said, wanted to "be remembered" for taking down their boss.
Netanyahu's lawyers demanded Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit investigate leaks from the probes, which they claim are splashing "new and sensational revelations" across the headlines on a daily basis. With elections just three months away, Netanyahu is apparently worried he may be indicted on bribery charges as early as next month.
The PM has denounced all who oppose him as part of a vast "left-wing conspiracy" with near-daily videos and tweets decrying the unjust persecution. His public communications have focused on little else since the election was moved up eight months in December after his Likud Party lost the support of former Defense Minister Avigdor Lieberman's Yisrael Beiteinu Party. Even a "dramatic" press announcement he scheduled earlier this month turned into a long-winded denunciation of the bribery probes, leading some media outlets to pack up and leave in the middle of his speech.

Israeli Criminality, Hubris Invites Catastrophe in Syria
Israeli forces have shifted from a doctrine of "war by stealth" to openly declared aggression on its northern neighbor Syria. For two straight days, the Israelis bombarded Syria's capital Damascus and its environs with dozens of air-launched cruise missiles. Many of the projectiles were reportedly intercepted by Russian-supplied air defense systems.
Nevertheless the Israeli blitzkrieg resulted in at least four Syrian military personnel being killed and damage to the civilian international airport near Damascus. That amounts to an outrageous war crime, as have countless air strikes carried out previously by Israel on Syria. Shamefully, the United Nations and Western governments maintain a hypocritical silence, while slapping sanctions on Syria, Russia and Iran over various alleged "transgressions".
But what's remarkable about the latest Israeli aggression is the public acknowledgement by the government in Tel Aviv. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, while on an African tour at the weekend, openly acknowledged the Israeli air strikes, as did the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF).
"We have a set policy, to target the Iranian entrenchment in Syria, and to harm whoever tried to harm us," said Netanyahu on a visit to Chad.
In a statement, the IDF said: "We have started striking Iranian Quds [Revolutionary Guards] targets in Syrian territory. We warn the Syrian Armed Forces against attempting to harm Israeli forces or territory."
Earlier this month, Netanyahu bragged to his cabinet members in televised comments about the "success" of repeated air strikes on Syria purportedly against Iranian targets.
That was also around the same time the outgoing IDF chief Gadi Eisenkot boasted to Western media about "running a bombing campaign" against Syria with "thousands of strikes" over recent years on an almost daily basis.

Netanyahu Mocks Iran's Top General Over 'the State of Iranian Bases' in Syria
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu suggested to Iranian Quds Force Commander Qassem Soleimani that he should look into the state of "bases he is trying to establish in Syria" instead of "interfering in the [Israeli] elections."
The response came after Kuwaiti newspaper Al-Jarida reported that Soleimani spoke of the need for a response to the Israeli air raid, as it would cause Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to fail in the forthcoming elections, citing Iranian sources.
"Instead of intervening in the elections, Soleimani should look at the state of the Iranian bases he is trying to establish in Syria," Netanyahu tweeted in response, referring to recent strikes by Israel targeting alleged Iranian military infrastructure in Syria.
?Instead of interfering in the elections, Soleimani would do well to check the state of the Iranian bases that he is trying to establish in Syria. Our policy is clear and will not change: We are determined to prevent Iran from militarily entrenching itself in Syria against Israel. pic.twitter.com/c4e3o8IqEJ
On Sunday, the Israeli Air Force carried out a missile attack on alleged Iranian targets in Syria, including "military facilities of [Iranian unit] Quds Force, including weapons depots, mainly in the area of Damascus International Airport, Iranian intelligence centre, Iranian training camp" in response to a rocket fired at the Golan Heights.
Israel has consistently expressed concern over Iran's alleged attempts to establish itself in Syria, including a permanent military presence in the Arab Republic. Tehran, in turn, has repeatedly emphasised that it has only been providing military advisers to Syria to help the country fight against terrorism.

Q Research General #6220: UFOs, Warp Drives And Stargates Edition
Prince Carlo Odescalchi is one of the highest authorities in Rome and is the head of the Cult of Saturn. The Odescalchi family have princely titles from Northern Italy, Austria and Hungary and connections with the Vatican, Knights of Malta, and Jesuit Order. They also established an influential bank in Genoa. Prince Carlo Odescalchi has an authority over the CERN program in Geneva Switzerland which also controls various particle accelerators around the world. Particle accelerators are nuclear technology developed under the Manhattan Project. German scientists worked with American scientists on the Manhattan Project to develop nuclear physics. The particle accelerators are increasing gravitational pressure in the lower atmosphere which is speeding up the rate of time and decay on matter. When they turn up the particle accelerators the air feels denser and it creates more stress on the body. Gravity refers to weight and is like electromagnetic pressure. The particle accelerators function similar to the idea of taking two magnets with opposite polarities and binding them together creating pressure in the middle and then using nuclear power to accelerate their magnetism. There is a binary magnetic device inside of the Black Cube of Mecca. The Black Cube is also a symbol for Saturn. The Odescalchi's Ilok Castle in Croatia has a clock tower. They are like "time wizards" using their particle accelerators to oppress society so they can control the present and then dictate the future. CERN is affecting gravity which has effects on time and this is known as "gravitational time dilation". Saturn is connected with time and gravity.
The hexagram or the six pointed star is also a symbol for Saturn the sixth planet. The hexagram is on the flag of Israel and also on the United States one dollar bill. The hexagon is the most efficient geometric shape for processing thermal energy and this is why snowflakes take the shape of six pointed stars through the thermal extraction. Many serpents have hexagonal scales for absorbing the solar rays because they are cold blooded. Zionists are a branch of the Cult of Saturn and they represent oppression and consumption. Many of the Zionists banking clans serve the Austrian-Hungarian Nobility and they are also members of the Cult of Saturn. Witchcraft uses sigils for binding and the hexagram is used like heavy shackles weighing the victim down. It is like squeezing the energy out of a person the same way you squeeze the juice out of an orange. Zionists consider energy as currency and humans as cattle. The Zionist clans were the ancient Horites that invaded Canaan and surrounded the Tribe of Judah. They eventually started speaking Hebrew and these families now claim to be Jews. The Zionist Horites do not represent the majority of todays Jews. Zionists are supremacists just like the Nazis. Saturn is connected with time in mythology. Hora is the Latin word for hour similar to Horite. Saturn is called Cronos in Greek which is where the word chronology comes from. Chronology means the arrangement of time. Time is money.
In Roman Mythology they worshiped the deity known as Janus who is connected with duality, time, transitions, and doorways. Janos is a common name that is taken by the Esterhazy family of Austria and Hungary. There is finance firm called Janus Capital Group with assets estimated at 190 billion. Saturn is also connected with time in the Roman Myth and there was a Cult of Saturn located in Rome with a temple right near Capitoline Hill which stored Rome's gold and silver. The Papacy and Odelscalchi family use gold and silver keys on their coat of arms. Scalchi appears to be etymologically connected to the word scale which is used for measuring the weight of things like gold and silver. The scale is also used as a symbol for judgement. Ode is a musical poem. The Odescalchi family have a portion of authority in Hollywood and the entertainment industry and they use entertainment to distract from their oppression. Tom Cruise got married at the Odescalchi castle and he serves this family as a Knight of Malta. Katy Perry covertly serves the House of Odescalchi and she is a wiccan member of the Cult of Saturn. She uses the Eye of Horus symbol in one of her music videos. Horus like the Horites. Hex in Hexagram means curse and witches curse people. Other members of the Saturn cult include Queen Elizabeth II, King Harald V of Norway, Princess Mary of Denmark, George Walker Bush, Count Janos Esterhazy de Galantha, Samuel Walton, Benjamin Netanyahu, and George Soros. There is a large clock in Oslo, Norway. Big Ben is the nickname of the clock tower in London now renamed Elizabeth Tower to honor Queen Elizabeth II. Saturn represents duality, time, (prophecy) oppression (gravity and judgement), and consumption (beast).

Israel opens new international airport
AFP RAMON AIRPORT, Israel (AFP-Jiji) - Israel inaugurated a new international airport Monday in its desert south meant to boost tourism to the nearby Red Sea and serve as an emergency alternative to Tel Aviv's Ben-Gurion airport.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu attended the inauguration ceremony at the sleek terminal, arriving on the ceremonial first flight to the airport, whose location has upset neighboring Jordan.
"Ramon airport, this is Arkia 683, we're very excited," Netanyahu said from the cockpit on arrival in an exchange with the tower relayed over loudspeakers.
Initially Ramon Airport will handle only domestic flights, operated by Israeli carriers Arkia and Israir.
A date has not yet been given for the start of international flights.
The new airport, named after Ilan Ramon, Israel's first astronaut who died in the crash of the space shuttle Columbia, will in the future host jumbo jets from around the globe.
Its website says it will be able to initially handle up to 2 million passengers annually, but will be able to expand to a capacity of 4.2 million by 2030.
It says that it has a 3,600-meter-long runway and apron parking space for nine "large and wide-body aircraft."
It also has freight-handling facilities.
Ramon is about 18 kilometers from the Israeli Red Sea resort of Eilat and the adjacent Jordanian port of Aqaba.
Jordan, one of only two Arab countries with a peace treaty with Israel, criticized the new airport, saying it would threaten the kingdom's airspace.
"Jordan rejects the establishment of the Israeli airport in its current location," head of Jordan's Civil Aviation Regulatory Commission Haitham Misto said, according to state media.Speech

Jewish group sues Brazilian cartoonist over Netanyahu & Bolsonaro 'Nazi hug' drawing
A Jewish community group in Brazil is suing an iconic political cartoonist for anti-Semitism, over a drawing depicting Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in a "swastika embrace."
The Jewish Federation of Rio de Janeiro filed the suit against the cartoonist Aroeira on January 15. The offending image shows both leaders hugging with their eyes closed while their arms form a swastika.
Both leaders have had a cordial relationship since the right-wing Bolsonaro came to power following tense elections in October, with the men declaring themselves a "brotherhood" during Netanyahu's visit to Brazil for Bolsonaro's inauguration earlier this month.
Bolsonaro, meanwhile, has pledged to move the Brazilian embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, and reaffirmed Israel's right to have the city as its capital.

Netanyahu In 2001: 'America Is A Thing You Can Move Very Easily
A newly released video of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu could add some additional strain to the sometimes tense relationship between him and President Obama.
In the video, which is from 2001, Netanyahu - who reportedly did not know his speech was being recorded - speaks frankly in Hebrew about relations with the Clinton White House and the peace process.
As noted in Haaretz, Netanyahu seems to boast of his knowledge of the US by saying, "I know what America is. America is a thing you can move very easily, move it in the right direction. They won't get in their way."
He also boasts of manipulating the U.S. in the ongoing peace process, as the Washington Post points out:
"They asked me before the election if I'd honor [the Oslo accords]," he said. "I said I would, but … I'm going to interpret the accords in such a way that would allow me to put an end to this galloping forward to the '67 borders. How did we do it? Nobody said what defined military zones were. Defined military zones are security zones; as far as I'm concerned, the entire Jordan Valley is a defined military zone. Go argue."

George Birnbaum of Psy-Group deep in Trump Russia
George Birnbaum, who ran Psy-Group staffed by Israeli intelligence agents, sought out Rick Gates through Republican operative Eckhart Sager days after Gates joined Trump's campaign (1).
Just prior to reaching out to Gates, Birnbaum worked on Ben Carson's campaign along with George Papadopoulos (35). When Ben Carson pulled out of his presidential run, he handed Trump plans for voter manipulation in swing states by a company called Inspiration, run by Israeli intelligence agents (41). Shortly after, Birnbaum delivered a presentation on Psy-Group to Gates and Papadopoulos joined team Trump (36). Ben Carson now works as Trump's Secretary of Housing.
Before Ben Carson's campaign, Birnbaum worked as a close advisor to Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel (35). According to Papadopuolos' now-wife, Simona Mangiante, Mueller threatened Papadopoulos of being an unregistered agent of Israel before Papadopoulos pleaded gulity (37). In June 2017 Birnbaum joined Trump's former campaign manager, Corey Lewandowski, at Avenue Strategies, founded by Lewandowski and Ben Carson's former campaign manager that hired Papadopoulos, Barry Bennett (35). Lewandowski has since stepped down from the firm over scandal (38).
Birnbaum's business partner since 2003, Arhtur Finkelstein (3), also mentored Roger Stone since the Nixon re-election campaign(2). Roger Stone worked closely with Donald Trump since the late 80's and on Trump's 2000 run for the presidency (4). Finkelstein also worked for the Trump Organization (2) and mentored Tony Fabrizio who worked as a pollster for Trump's campaign (2).

Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit has decided to file bribery charges against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Case 4000, the Bezeq-Walla Affair, says a senior legal official, according to Israel's Ulpan Shlishi news program on Friday night.
According to the report, senior officials involved in advanced discussions say the decision has already been made to charge Netanyahu. Mandelblit has accepted the recommendation of the State Attorney's Office, specifically that of the Tel-Aviv Financial and Tax District Office, to indict Netanyahu in Case 4000.
The Bezek-Walla Affair is a case in which Netanyahu allegedly received positive news coverage from website Walla!, which is owned by telecommunications giant Bezek in exchange for preferential regulatory treatment granted to the telecom giant.
Channel 12's Mako news site reported that the prime minister's attorneys responded to the news, saying: "On the eve of a meeting between us and the attorney general, there is no room for leaks aimed at sabotaging the meeting and damaging our right to be fairly heard."
On Thursday, Mandelblit had invited Netanyahu's attorneys on the matter of delaying a decision on whether to charge the prime minister until after the elections, according to the Mako website. The site reported that the letter sent from the attorney general's office said that even elections were no reason to delay cases against public officials or candidates.
On December 3, the Israeli police recommended that Netanyahu be charged with bribery and fraud in Case 4000, together with his wife Sarah, and the controlling shareholder of Bezek at the time, Shaul Elovitch, along with others.
Netanyahu immediately denied the charges. In a speech on December 3, he said "Ask yourselves - what special thing did Elovitch receive from me? Not only didn't he receive a thing during my period, he and Bezek lost massive capital. They say billions. What did I receive? I received terrible coverage in Walla!, particularly hostile on the eve of the elections."
Netanyahu remains defiant in the face of calls from opposition leaders that he resign as a result of the bribery cases. At a press conference in Brazil on December 31, he said, "I don't intend to resign because I believe there's nothing [to the case]. Second, Israel is country of law and according to the law there's no reason to resign before the conclusion of the hearing."
"In a democracy you establish who'll be in power according to the ballots," he said. Netanyahu has said that the cases against him are part of a left-wing effort to influence the elections through the legal system, in effect subverting the democratic process. (WIN)

Israel Strikes Syria Using Immunity Provided by Some UNSC Members - Damascus
Earlier in the day, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that those who threatened Israel and vowed to destroy it would bear "full responsibility".
The Syrian Foreign Ministry has notified the United Nations that the Israeli airstrikes against Syria are possible only with US support and with immunity "silently" approved by some other members of the UN Security Council, the ministry's press service said Monday.
"Such attacks are possible only thanks to the unlimited support provided by the US administration, the immunity from investigations extended to Israel by a number of countries in the UN Security Council, as well as the complete silence regime that these countries have imposed in the UN Security Council to prevent this body from fulfilling its role in repelling these criminal attacks," the ministry said in letters sent to the UN Secretary-General and the UNSC President.
Israel has been carrying out strikes on alleged Iranian targets in Syria for two days in a row. According to the Russian military, the Syrian air defence forces destroyed over 30 cruise missiles and guided bombs for that period of time.
Following the attacks, Iranian Air Force Commander Brigadier General Aziz Nasirzadeh stated that Iran was "ready to fight against Israel and eliminate it from the Earth."
Israel has repeatedly accused Iran of having a military presence in Syria, as well as suspected attempts to build a base there. However, Tehran has strongly refuted the claims, insisting that it's military presence in the country is limited to sending military advisors at Damascus' request to help fight terrorists.

Iran ready to 'eliminate Israel from Earth,' air force commander warns
The head of Iran's air force has warned that Tehran is ready to "confront" and "eliminate" Israel. His fighting words come after Israel launched air raids on alleged Iranian targets inside Syria, killing 4 Syrian soldiers.
Brigadier General Aziz Nasirzadeh, the commander of the Islamic Republic of Iran Air Force (IRIAF), issued the provocative statement to the Young Journalist Club news agency, according Iranian media.
"The young people in the air force are fully ready and impatient to confront the Zionist regime and eliminate it from the Earth," he said. "Our future generations are learning required know-how for the promised day to destroy Israel," he added.
He stressed that Iran's high level of military preparedness has deterred the country's enemies from attacking the Islamic Republic.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu defended his nation's decision to strike targets inside Syria on Monday, describing the air raid as retribution against those who wish to destroy Israel.
"We are operating both against Iran and against the Syrian forces that are abetting the Iranian aggression," Netanyahu said in a speech. "We will strike at anyone who tried to harm us. Whoever threatens to eliminate us, bears full responsibility."
Israel is believed to have fired dozens of missiles and guided bombs at targets inside Syria over the last 48 hours, purportedly targeting Iranian forces stationed in the country.
The strikes have killed four Syrian soldiers and left six others injured, the Russian Defense Ministry has said, as well as causing damage to Damascus International Airport. The ministry claims that Syrian forces have intercepted 30 Israeli missiles over the past 48 hours.

Israeli military strikes Iranian targets in Syria
BEIRUT/JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Israel's military said on Monday it struck Iranian Quds targets inside Syria and warned Syrian forces not to attack Israeli territory or forces. Syrian state media cited a Syrian military source as saying Israel launched an "intense attack through consecutive waves of guided missiles", but that Syrian air defenses destroyed most of the "hostile targets". Witnesses in Damascus said loud explosions rang out in the night sky for nearly an hour. "We have started striking Iranian Quds targets in Syrian territory. We warn the Syrian Armed Forces against attempting to harm Israeli forces or territory," Israel's military said in a statement. The Quds Force is in charge of Iran's Revolutionary Guards' overseas operations.
The strikes followed cross-border attacks on Sunday in which Syria said it repelled an Israeli air attack. Israel said it intercepted a rocket fired at the Golan Heights. "We have a permanent policy, to strike at the Iranian entrenchment in Syria and hurt whoever tries to hurt us," Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said earlier. The Israeli army said a popular winter sports site on Mount Hermon in the Israeli-controlled Golan Heights would be shut for the day. It added that otherwise things remained "routine" along the frontier with Syria.
Netanyahu last week acknowledged an Israeli attack on what he called an Iranian arms cache in Syria, where Tehran provides Damascus with vital support. He told his cabinet Israel had carried out "hundreds" of attacks over the past years of Syria's war to curtail Iran and its ally Lebanon's Hezbollah. Usually silent about its attacks on Iranian targets near its frontier, Israel has lifted the veil this month, a sign of confidence in a campaign waged amid occasional tensions with Syria's big-power backer Russia.

Syrian Air Defenses Repel Strikes, Powerful Blasts Heard Over Damascus - Reports
According to the Syrian news agency SANA, citing a military source, Damascus air defenses confronted another Israeli aerial attack on Monday that had allegedly targeted the southern region.
Syria's air defense has shot down several targets, the agency added, without providing any further details. According to Syrian state television, the attack is conducted from the airspace of Lebanon.
Syrian air defense systems repelled earlier on Sunday the air strike by Israel in the south of Syria, a source in the country's military told Sputnik earlier.
According to a Sputnik correspondent, another series of powerful explosions occurred over the Syrian capital at 1:15 local time on Monday.
Israel Defense Forces said on Monday they were attacking Iranian forces in the territory of neighboring Syria. The IDF also warned Syrian army against attempts to attack either Israeli territory or troops.
The IDF gave no further details in its statement.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's press office said on Sunday that "our permanent policy is to oppose Iran's attempts to gain a foothold in Syria and to hurt those who is trying to hurt us".
Earlier in January, Benjamin Netanyahu vowed to continue confronting Iran's military activities in Syria.
"Our position is clear. We will continue to act against the Iranian military entrenchment in Syria, including at present, and we will act against any element that undermines, or attempts to undermine, the security of Israel", Netanyahu said.
Israel has taken a neutral stance on the conflict in Syria, however, Tel Aviv claims the IDF has been conducting air raids in the Syrian country against Lebanese paramilitary group Hezbollah and to counter Iran's military presence in the neighboring country.
The Israeli military estimates the number of air strikes over the past two years at 200.

Netanyahu Targets Israeli Media Over Corruption Probes
TEL AVIV - Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu over the weekend claimed the corruption investigations against him are part of a conspiracy by the left and the media to oust him.
"For three years have hounded the attorney general to indict at any cost," a new video posted on the prime minister's Facebook page said according to a translation by the Times of Israel.
"At the grocery shop, in the street, at the synagogue. Will they succeed?"
The video comes amid widespread but unsubstantiated Israeli media reports that Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit will heed recommendations by the police and the head of the State Prosecution's Tax and Finance Department Liat Ben Ari calling for Netanyahu's indictment.
Members of the opposition blasted the video, with Labor Party leader Avi Gabbay accusing the prime minister of targeting Mandelblit and the media.
Netanyahu is "forgetting his people and destroying Israel," Gabbay said.
Shelly Yachimovich, also from the Labor Party, said the video constituted a threat against Mandelblit. "The goal is to use any means to prevent the attorney-general from filing an indictment, and ensuring that should he do so, his professional decision will be painted with the colors of treason."
Deputy Knesset Speaker Yoel Hasson (Hatnuah) said the video was "a dark example of what will happen here if we don't do everything to replace Netanyahu."
MK Miki Zohar of Likud defended the video, saying it showed the "anti-democratic" and "violent pressure on the attorney general to indict."
Other Likud MKs said Netanyahu's legal woes were part of a "politicized witch hunt."
On Thursday, Mandelblit seemed to say that he would refuse Netanyahu's request that he postpone any announcements until after the April 9 elections.
Israel's early elections, however, are "none of my business. ... It's not something that affects me," Mandelblit told Channel 12 news. "I need to do my work as quickly as possible, although of course without compromising thoroughness and professionalism."
"I am working as quickly as possible in order to get the work done and make the findings public - on condition that I am comfortable [with the findings] personally and professionally. Ultimately, it's a question of professionalism."
Earlier this month, Netanyahu took Israel's judiciary to task on a number of counts: denying him a meeting with the states' witnesses testifying against him; for not allowing other witnesses who could have testified in his favor to come forward; and for wrongly labeling the suspicions against him as bribery when no money changed hands.

Syria repels IDF air raid on intl airport south of Damascus, shot down 7 missiles - Moscow
Syrian air defenses repelled an Israeli air raid into its territory, successfully intercepting seven missiles fired by incoming F-16 fighter jets, the Russian military said. No damage or casualties on the ground were reported.
The attack occurred at 1:32pm local time on Sunday, the Russian Defense Ministry said. Four F-16 Israeli fighter jets were flying above the Mediterranean Sea as they launched guided missiles into Syria, targeting the "international airport, southwest of Damascus," the military officials explained.
Syria's Pantsir and Buk air defense missile systems were used to shoot down Israeli rockets and knocked out seven of them. The military added that there was no damage done to the airport and no casualties on the ground.
A Syrian military source earlier told state media that the army "thwarted" an Israeli "air aggression" against the country.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu confirmed the airport attack, saying that it was part of the country's "permanent policy... to oppose Iran's attempts to gain a foothold in Syria and to hurt those [who are] trying to hurt us."
The Israeli Army said on the same day that they had intercepted a rocket launched at the northern Golan Heights, without specifying where the rocket came from. In recent years, Israel has conducted multiple air raids on Syrian territory, striking alleged Iranian-linked targets. Not all attacks reported by Syria were subsequently confirmed by the IDF. Officials in Tel Aviv have accused Iran of using its 'proxies' on the ground in Syria to undermine Israeli security.

War on BDS: How AIPAC-Israel agenda became US priority
The Israeli-US war declared on the Palestinian boycott movement is coming to a head, culminating in a well-orchestrated effort aimed at suffocating any form of tangible protest of the ongoing Israeli colonization of Palestine.
But an Israeli 'victory', even with blind US government support, is still too elusive if at all guaranteed. Killing unarmed protesters at the fence separating besieged Gaza from Israel is often whitewashed as Israel 'defending itself'. However, legislating unconstitutional laws against the rights of ordinary people to boycott a state that practices war crimes might not be an easy endeavor.
The fact that 26 US states have already passed legislation or some form of condemnation of the civil act of boycott, as championed in the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement (BDS) should, in fact, raise more awareness of the iniquitous Israeli influence on the United States, rather than actually thwarting BDS.
The US Senate first bill of 2019 (S.B.1) titled: "Strengthening America's Security in the Middle East Act of 2019" called on state and local governments to withhold contracts from any individual or business entity that boycotts Israel.
The bill was defeated, which is a promising sign. However, it must be noted as profound, if not altogether outrageous, that a country that is subsisting in a government shutdown and political crisis would find it both compelling and necessary to push for such a law in defense of a foreign country.
The bill will reappear again, of course. Alas, Americans should now get used to the idea that Israel's priorities, however skewed and irrational in defense of its illegal military occupation of Palestine, will become the main rally cry for the US government for years to come.
While such a notion has proved true in the past, never before did ordinary Americans find themselves the main target in the political agenda of the far-right government of Benjamin Netanyahu.
Even the mere protest of this agenda is being shunned. Iconic US civil rights activist, Angela Davis, 74, deservingly celebrated for her contribution to American society for decades, was denied an award by the Birmingham Civil Rights Institute because of her defense of Palestinians and support of BDS.
This witch-hunt, which has now reached the most admired intellectuals of American society is affecting ordinary citizens everywhere as well, which is an alarming development in Israel's unchecked power in the United States.
But how did Israel and its supporters acquire such disproportionate influence over the US government and society as a whole?
In short, the Lobby.

Holy shit, guys: stumbled across this story from November 2017 about a Pastor Bob Coy molesting a 4 y/o girl. I did a search on the Qresearch board here and didn't find anything about it, but this story is loaded with red flags. He was a former Las Vegas casino entertainment director before becoming a pastor, and was considered a "superstar" pastor who built this 25,000 seat "Calvary Chapel Ft Lauderdale" megachurch. Apparently he was the most famous Evangelical pastor in Florida. Where is Ft. Lauderdale? Broward County, of course. Wonder if there are any Epstein connections? These rich pedos love to run in packs.
"Coy, who was never charged with a crime, lay low after leaving Calvary but recently turned up at Boca Raton's Funky Biscuit, where he helps manage the club. (Update: The club has now terminated its relationship with Coy and says it had no inkling of the allegations against him.) Tracked down at the bar on a recent weeknight, the well-dressed ex-pastor looks no different from the days when he preached to thousands of followers. He declined to discuss the child abuse case except to say he is innocent and passed a polygraph test to prove it. "I can't discuss it on the record," he said, before adding cryptically: "If you're foolish enough to go through with this story… it would hurt a lot of people.""
Well-connected, too: "Coy hosted everyone from George W. Bush to Benjamin Netanyahu." – "Coy became a key endorsement for local Republicans, including conspiracy theorist U.S. Rep. Allen West, whom Calvary hosted as a keynote speaker at a conference to train more than 100 local conservatives to run for office more effectively." – "In 2005, Coy's church rented out Dolphin Stadium on Easter Sunday and drew more than 20,000 people. The next year, he raised an insane $103 million in donations - the most by a single megachurch to date. He sat on a U.S. presidential advisory board and received weekly updates straight from GOP mastermind Karl Rove."
"Coy's preaching career ended with shocking speed, but his sex scandal was far from the first for Calvary Chapel. In fact, the church had been battling accusations nationwide for years that it empowered predatory pastors while demanding little accountability. The root of Calvary's problems, critics say, lies in its unique structure. Unlike many Protestant churches, which set up powerful boards of elders to oversee ministers, Calvary used a management style Smith called the "Moses method." – "…the pastors Smith installed in his hundreds of megachurches, which are similar to Calvary Chapel Fort Lauderdale, had nearly unlimited power over budgets, personnel, and message. And even if complaints arose, Smith's answer was often to give wayward preachers second and third chances."
In 2007, Christianity Today spoke to numerous Calvary pastors across the country. Some complained anonymously that Smith was "dangerously lax in maintaining standards for sexual morality" among his preachers. "Those men cannot call sin sin," one 20-year veteran of the church complained to the publication.
Methinks additional digging is needed!

Davos 2019: World leaders you WON'T be seeing at WEF and WHY - Trump and May included
THE annual World Economic Forum will kick off in Davos next week with global political and business elites gathering to discuss the dangers facing the economy and environment in 2019.
By LEVI WINCHESTER
PUBLISHED: 14:49, Thu, Jan 17, 2019 | UPDATED: 14:56, Thu, Jan 17, 2019
Fears of a slowdown in economic growth linked to trade disputes, fractious international relations, and political uncertainty due to Brexit are set to dominate the January 22 to 25 Alpine meeting. As well as this, the environment will also take centerstage with concerns over climate change and man-made environmental disasters on the cards for discussion at this year's event. But a host of crises will keep several world leaders away from one of the biggest economic events in the calendar. Prime Minister Theresa May will not be attending the event as she battles to find a consensus on Brexit.
The Conservative party leader this week saw her divorce deal shot down in Parliament after being rejected in a landslide fashion of 432 votes to 202.
Mrs May then survived a subsequent vote of confidence, triggered by Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn in the face of the deal being rejected.
US President Donald Trump will also not be showing his face as he continues to grapple with the partial shutdown of his government with 800,000 federal employees ensnared in the drama and going without pay.
The US leader triggered the stand-off, the longest of its kind in recent history, after demanding $5.7 billion to fund a wall along the US-Mexico border, which Democrats oppose.
French President Emmanuel Macron will be staying at home as his country with the fallout from the so-called Yellow Vest protests dominating his current schedule.
The unrest was sparked in November by fuel tax reforms but it has developed into a broader movement against Mr Macron.
The sometimes-violent protests have continued despite a series of humiliating climbdowns by Mr Macron in a desperate bid to regain control.
It is currently uncertain if Russian leader Vladimir Putin will attend Davos after presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov saying "nothing is excluded" when asked if Putin will be heading to Switzerland.
But the WEF will not be short of political figures by any means, with German Chancellor Angela Merkel, Italian Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte, Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez and Chancellor of Austria Sebastian Kurz all on the guest list.
Also in attendance will be: Leo Varadkar, Taoiseach of the Republic of Ireland, Queen Máxima of the Netherlands, Belgium Prime Minister Charles Michel, Norwegian Prime Minister Erna Solberg.
In terms of leaders outside of Europe, there will be: Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, Chinese Vice President Wang Qishan, President of Brazil Jair Bolsonaro, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern, President of Zimbabwe Emmerson Mnangagwa, President of Colombia Ivan Duque and South African President Cyril Ramaphosa.
Prince William will also attend the event and is expected to interview Sir David Attenborough about "inspiring generations of people to become champions for nature".
Yesterday the WEF Global Risk Report warned of looming economic headwinds, in part due to geopolitical tensions among major powers.
The international organisation has raised concerns the world is "sleepwalking into a crisis" with global risks from political and economic tensions to climate change intensifying.
Borge Brende, president of the WEF said: "With global trade and economic growth at risk in 2019, there is a more urgent need than ever to renew the architecture of international cooperation."
He added: "What we need now is coordinated, concerted action to sustain growth and to tackle the grave threats facing our world today."

Notable
TEL AVIV - Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu received approval from President Donald Trump before a massive intelligence mission last year in which some 100,000 documents on Iran's nuclear program were smuggled out of a warehouse near Tehran by Mossad agents, Israeli television reported Tuesday.
In April, the Israeli premier gave a dramatic presentation of the stolen trove which he said proved that Iran had lied about its nuclear program. The operation, which took place over a single night in January, was one of the Israeli intelligence community's "greatest achievements," stated Netanyahu.
According to Hadashot news, Netanyahu had revealed his intentions to infiltrate Iran to Trump when the two met on the sidelines of the Davos World Economic Forum last January. The Israeli leader was said to have sought support from his American counterpart in case the operation went wrong and would need a rescue team to extract the agents, the report said.
The TV report also stated that the return of the agents that night was far more complex than originally reported, but it did not go into any details.
In April, the New York Times reported that the Mossad had been monitoring the warehouse since February 2016.
Iran "was on the cusp of mastering key bombmaking technologies when the research was ordered halted" in 2003, the Times said.
Other reports at the time released details on the Mossad's effort to seize the archive within six and a half hours, with one official comparing it to the heist from Ocean's 11.
Netanyahu said the trove was discovered in what looked like a "dilapidated warehouse" in the Shorabad District in southern Tehran.
"This is where they kept the atomic archives. Right here. Few Iranians knew where it was, very few, and also a few Israelis," Netanyahu stated.
"Now, from the outside, this was an innocent looking compound. It looks like a dilapidated warehouse. But from the inside, it contained Iran's secret atomic archives locked in massive files," he said.
Netanyahu stated that "half a ton of the material" on papers and CDs comprising "incriminating documents, incriminating charts, incriminating presentations, incriminating blueprints, incriminating photos, incriminating videos and more" had been brought back to Israel.
"We've shared this material with the United States, and the United States can vouch for its authenticity," he said.

Benefiting Israel Tops Congressional Agenda
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu famously was unaware that he was being filmed when he commented that "America is a thing you can move very easily, moved in the right direction." His predecessor Ariel Sharon was even more to the point when he reportedly said "Every time we do something you tell me America will do this and will do that ...don't worry about American pressure; I tell you, we, the Jewish people, control America and the American people know it!"
If this were only chest thumping rhetoric one might just shrug and go about one's business, but actions speak louder than words, even in the world of corrupt politicians, where nothing is ever as it seems to be. In the past year alone, the U.S. government has moved its Embassy in Israel to Jerusalem, has stopped criticizing the Netanyahu government's expansion of illegal settlements, and is reportedly currently contemplating recognizing as legal Israel's illegal occupation of the Syrian Golan Heights. All the moves were and are contrary to actual American interests.
Furthermore, Israel, a country having a European level standard of living to include free education and medical care, has received more than $250 billion in "aid" from Washington. It currently is receiving $3.8 billion yearly from the U.S. Treasury as a base figure guaranteed for ten years, with supplements for special projects and programs. Adding in trade arrangements favorable to Israel and the money it gets from American Jewish donors' tax-exempt contributions, the real total per annum approaches and may even exceed $10 billion. Much of the donor money, including that from the Kushner Foundation, has gone to fund the illegal settlements on the West Bank in violation of U.S. law. And then there is the $2.7 billion given yearly to Egypt and Jordan, essentially bribes to maintain friendly relations with Israel.
The ultimate irony is that any aid to Israel is illegal in light of the fact that it has violated the Symington and Glenn amendments to the 1961 Foreign Assistance Actdue to its undeclared nuclear weapons arsenal and its refusal to sign the Nuclear Non Proliferation Treaty. Both Congress and the White House have chosen to ignore that complication, one more demonstration of Jewish power in the United States. In truth, Ariel Sharon, if he was quoted correctly, had it right. Jewish Americans do control or at least exercise considerable influence over key sectors in the U.S. They are overwhelmingly disproportionately present on Wall Street, in the entertainment and news industries, in academia, in high value professions and in government at all levels. Their collective power both enriches and protects Israel at the expense of the U.S. taxpayer and genuine national interests. It also enables Israeli agents in the U.S., like the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), to avoid scrutiny and regulation under the Foreign Agents Registration Act of 1938.
Some federal government agencies exist largely to promote Israeli interests, most notably the Treasury Department's Office for Terrorism and Financial Intelligence, which has only had Jewish Under Secretaries heading it since it was founded in 2004. It is currently run by Israeli Sigal Mandelker. The office has focused on punishing Iran, Israel's principle enemy, throughout its existence.
Jewish power is most perniciously evident in U.S. foreign policy, where it has a strangle hold on relations between Washington and the Arab countries of the Middle East. Much of this leverage is derived from the fact that the principal donors to both the Democratic and Republican parties - Haim Saban and Sheldon Adelson-are both Jews having very strong ties to Israel. Saban is an Israeli and Adelson may have Israeli citizenship. With both parties more than willing to act on behalf of Israel, the United States has engaged in a number of wars that serve no national interest and which have, on the contrary, brought with them devastating consequences, including the rise of new terrorist groups.

Really never felt good about Bolton. Now I really don't feelz good about Bolton:
"John Bolton Wants to Bomb Iran - and He May Get What He Wants"
Despite leaks to the press over the past few days from "rattled" but unnamed officials at the State Department and the Pentagon, Bolton is far from the only person close to Trump who is pushing a belligerent line on Iran. He has plenty of allies in the administration. As Vox reported on Monday, "Bolton has staffed up the NSC with people who share his views. Last week, he hired Richard Goldberg, a noted Iran hawk, to run the administration's pressure campaign against the country…. So how do these hawks plan to get their war with Tehran? Bolton, in particular, seems keen on two lines of attack. The first relates to the nuclear issue. "We have little doubt that Iran's leadership is still strategically committed to achieving deliverable nuclear weapons," the national security adviser told fellow Iran-hater Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Jerusalem earlier this month. There is, however, not a shred of evidence for Bolton's claim; in fact, the U.S. intelligence community has flatly and repeatedly rejected it. "We do not know whether Iran will eventually decide to build nuclear weapons," said Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats, in his 2017 "Worldwide Threat Assessment of the US Intelligence Community."

Trump's "Hail Mary" Becomes Bolton's Nightmare
National Security Advisor John Bolton is making the rounds in the Middle East to try and salvage what's left of the long-standing plan to balkanize Syria and overthrow President Bashar al-Assad in the wake of President Trump's announced troop withdrawal.
What began as a political Hail Mary for Trump has morphed into a foreign policy quagmire for Bolton and the bloody-minded neoconservatives he is the tip of the spear for.
Bolton first met fellow war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu to announce their conditions under which US troops would leave Syria. The big sticking point was getting the Turks to guarantee the safety of the Kurdish militia, the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), that have been the US proxy forces in securing that part of Syria east of the Euphrates river for future plans vis-à-vis Iraq and Iran.
His condition for the US's withdrawal from Syria is just another impossible demand placed on Turkey, who can no more guarantee the Kurds' survival than Russia could implement the Minsk II agreement in Ukraine.
This is yet another big lie neocons like Bolton have been parroting since Trump's announcement. They are desperate to convince us their mission in Syria is a humanitarian one. The Kurds are their casus belli of the day, dressed up for the liberal interventionist left to rally around.
Since Trump's announcement we have been saturated with the idea that the Turks will come in and slaughter every Kurd in Syria if the US pulls out. This is something Pompeo was taken to task for by Turkish Foreign Ministry spokesman Hami Aksoy who said Pompeo exhibited a "worrying lack of knowledge" about the situation in Syria, since Turkey houses currently over 300,000 Syrian Kurdish refugees from the fighting the US fomented.
It is a continuation of the thoroughly debunked and false narrative that Assad is a butcher, Putin is only there for the gas pipelines and America is actually fighting ISIS.
ISIS, the very terrorists we armed to overthrow Assad in the first place.
We're there for humanitarian reasons, the same way we're supporting the Saudi war in Yemen, maintaining a no-fly zone over the border crossing at Al-Tanf while the people who live there starve. And all John Bolton can think or care about is Great Powers theory and how to destroy the Heartland as defined by Makinder a century ago.
In their desperation to hold onto the dregs of their strategic position, something that the pro-Syrian coalition is degrading daily, Bolton, Pompeo and Netanyahu have now turned to the Kurds who know the US doesn't care about them to justify more regional chaos.

Yoav Gallant dismisses Palestinian state, calls to annex West Bank
Israel must apply sovereignty to Area C of the West Bank, Aliya and Integration Minister Yoav Gallant said on Sunday during a campaign stop in the Binyamin region of the West Bank.
He also dismissed the possibility of creating a Palestinian state in the West Bank.
"I am clearly saying no, to a Palestinian state. It is not possible to have more than one state west of the Jordan River," Gallant said.
"This is the place of the Jewish, Zionist and democratic state of Israel," whose existence is baed on the strength of the biblical forefathers, Galant said.
"We will work to apply sovereignty in all of Judea and Samaria and to strengthen the settlements," Gallant said, adding that "settlements are the only key to holding onto sovereignty and Zionism."
"Settlements are the new Zionism of the 21st Century," Gallant said.
These communities also play an important role in providing public safety, he said, adding they "are the eastern security belt for the State of Israel."
He also warned terrorists against future attacks, explaining that anyone who tries to harm the state or its people is risking their life.
"We will get every terrorist. They will end their life in prison or in the cemetery," he said.
Gallant, who left the Kulanu party to join the Likud, had been the Housing and Construction Minister and was known for his strong support of the settlements, including advancing the building project in Efrat known on the Givat HaEitam hilltop.
On Sunday he braved the wet weather and the cold winds to settlements of Beit Aryeh, Neve Tzuf, Eli and Shiloh. His statements there place him to the right of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who does not support the application of sovereignty at this time, or at any time during his last eight years as prime minister.

'We struck thousands of targets': IDF chief of staff on Israel's 'near-daily' strikes in Syria
The outgoing IDF chief of staff has acknowledged that Israel has been bombing Syria on a "near-daily" basis for years, in a massive military campaign allegedly aimed at degrading Tehran's supposed military buildup in the region.
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) rarely acknowledge striking specific targets in Syria but its outgoing chief of staff just openly confessed to running a large-scale bombing campaign in its neighbor's territory. In 2018 alone, Israel dropped around 2,000 bombs on alleged Iran-linked targets, Gadi Eisenkot told the New York Times in his final interview as chief of staff of the IDF before he retires next week.
"We struck thousands of targets without claiming responsibility or asking for credit," Eisenkot stated, confessing to carrying out strikes on a "near-daily" basis.
Later Benjamin Netanyahu confirmed that Israeli air forces attacked a warehouse at Damascus airport late Friday, verifying the information issued by the Syrian military. Netanyahu said the IDF has "succeeded impressively in stopping Iran's military build up in Syria, and in this context, the IDF has attacked hundreds of times Iranian and Hezbollah targets."
While the Syrian government repeatedly accuses the Jewish state of constantly violating its sovereignty and aiding the terrorists by their raids in the country's airspace, Eisenkot claimed the Israeli actions are justified - and that, anyway, neither Damascus nor Tehran can do anything about it.
We have complete intelligence superiority in this area. We enjoy complete aerial superiority. We have strong deterrence and we have the justification to act.
Despite the Lieutenant General's claim about a moral high ground in the battle against the perceived Iranian threat, the Israeli Air Force was caught in several reckless -and sometimes lethal- actions during their missions in Syria. On Christmas Day the Israeli jets used two civilian aircraft in flight as cover to engage targets in Syria, the Russian Defense Ministry said, noting that the IDF's F-16s flew in as civilian jets were landing at Beirut and Damascus airports. The Israeli tactics resulted in the deaths of all 15 Russian crew on board and compelled Moscow to supply Syria with S-300 missile defense systems. Russian also warned that, in the event of any threat to its servicemen deployed in the country, it will jam radio and satellite signals from military aircraft approaching from the Mediterranean, which seemingly forced Israel to slightly adjust its bombing routine and routes.

Israel determined to take further action against Iran in Syria - Israeli PM
TEL AVIV, January 13. /TASS/. Israel is prepared to take further action against Iranian targets in Syria to prevent Iran's gaining a military stronghold in that country, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Sunday.
"Just in the last 36 hours the air force attacked Iranian warehouses with Iranian weapons at the international airport in Damascus. The accumulation of recent attacks proves that we are determined more than ever to take action against Iran in Syria, just as we promised," he said as quoted by his office.
"Overnight, the air force also attacked on the southern front against Hamas targets in Gaza and this morning we announced the exposure of an additional tunnel, a main tunnel, perhaps the most important, that crossed the border into our territory. We are thus approaching the completion of the goal we set at the outset of Operation Northern Shield - the eradication of Hezbollah's tunnels weapon," he said.
At a weekly cabinet meeting earlier in the day, Netanyahu admitted that Israel had delivered airstrikes against Iranian targets at Damascus' international airport over the past 36 hours. He also said that the Israel Defense Force had attacked Iranian and Hezbollah targets "hundreds of times."
Syria's SANA news agency reported that overnight to Saturday Israel had hit a warehouse near the Damascus airport. According to Al-Hadath TV channel, the Israeli planes attacked Iranian military warehouses near the airport, which are used by the Hezbollah militias, fighting on the side of the government's army.

Q Research General #6031: A Thing Called "Leverage" Edition
Israeli Opposition: Putin Planning to 'Steal the Election for His Friend, the Dictator Bibi'
There is no election Putin can't/won't hack
The Israeli opposition has accused Russia of planning to interfere in the upcoming Israeli election to guarantee the election of incumbent Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, according to a report by the Jerusalem Post.
"We demand security forces make sure Putin is not stealing the election for his friend, Bibi the dictator," declared Tamar Zandberg, leader of Meretz, a left-wing opposition party.
Putin's spokesman was quick to respond to the unfounded allegation.
"Russia has never interfered in elections in any country and has no plans to do it in the future," stated press secretary Dmitry Peskov.
The statement comes after the director of Israel's Shin Bet domestic intelligence agency, Nadav Argaman, claimed that a foreign country was planning to intervene in the April elections.
"I can't say at this point for whom or against whom but it involves cyber[attacks] and hacking," he said. "100% [sure] that [redacted country] will intervene in the upcoming elections, and I know what I'm talking about, I just don't know in whose favor."
Under Netanyahu, the leader of the ruling Likud party, Israel's relations with Russia improved substantially, particularly during Israel's rift with the United States during the Obama administration. Although he is currently under investigation, he remains popular with the Israeli population, and is expected to win the election by a large margin, despite a strong challenge from former IDF head Benny Gantz and his centrist Israel Resilience party. Netanyahu has been falsely accused by his Soros-backed opponents of shifting Israel in the direction of an illiberal state.
Russia's main political ally on the Israeli right is Yisrael Beiteinu leader Avigdor Lieberman, who maintained a strictly neutral position on the Russian annexation of Crimea during his tenure as Foreign Minister between 2009 and 2015. However, his party is notably weaker in the polls, and risks not receiving a high enough percentage of the vote to win any seats in the election. Russia also maintains warm ties with Israel's left-wing Arab parties, although they are unlikely to play a role in a future Israeli coalition government.

Republicans push recognition of Israeli annexation of Golan
As the Senate considers a bipartisan defense of the Israeli government from boycotts, senior Republicans are urging the Trump administration to recognize Israel's claims of sovereignty over the occupied Golan Heights.
As recognized by international law, the Golan Heights is Syrian territory captured by Israel in 1967 along with the Palestinian West Bank and Gaza Strip, and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, from which Israel eventually withdrew.
After Israel claimed to annex the Golan Heights in 1981, the UN Security Council declared the move "null and void and without international legal effect."
Senators Ted Cruz of Texas and Tom Cotton of Arkansas issued a joint statement on Sunday referring to what Israel says are recently destroyed Hizballah tunnels along the Israel-Lebanon border, as well as Iranian forces in Syria.
"To support Israel's right to self-defense, Washington should take the long overdue step of affirming Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights," the senators state.
The two senators had introduced a resolution to Congress last year making the same demand while emphasizing the purported threat to Israel's security posed by Iran.
The same day that Cruz and Cotton's statement was released, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu raised recognition of his country's illegal annexation of the Golan with John Bolton, the national security adviser to Donald Trump who holds hardline anti-Iran views.
Bolton was in Israel this week to outline conditions for a withdrawal of US troops from Syria.
He was dispatched to the region to reassure US allies after Trump announced that his country's armed forces would be immediately and unconditionally pulled out of Syria - a move Israel and its supporters oppose.
Contradicting Trump, who had set no such conditions, Bolton insisted that the withdrawal would only take place in such a way as to "make sure that the defense of Israel and our other friends in the region is absolutely assured," and not until ISIS, or so-called Islamic State, "is defeated and is not able to revive itself and become a threat again."

Q Research General #5981: "Launched ‘a thousand memes’ while they were still talking" Edition
Jordanian Foreign Minister Demands Israel To Return Golan Heights To Syria During Joint Press Conference With US Secretary Of State
On January 8th, Jordan's Foreign Minister, Ayman Safadi described the Golan Heights as occupied Syrian territory and demanded that Israel withdraw its forces from the area.
Safadi's comments came during a joint press conference with US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, who landed in Amman earlier in the day.
"The Golan Heights are occupied Syrian territory. International law is clear on that. It has to be treated as such," Safadi told reporters.
"Therefore, our position is that Israel needs to withdraw from that territory in the framework of a peace agreement," he added.
Israel captured the Golan Heights from Syria during the 1967 Middle East war. It unilaterally annexed the area in 1981, in a move that wasn't recognized internationally.
The UN Security Council has maintained the illegality of measures taken by Israel "to impose its laws, jurisdiction and administration on the occupied Syrian Golan," adding that "acquisition of territory by force is inadmissible under international law."
During the press conference Pompeo essentially spoke about Iran and that the US would "redouble" its diplomatic and commercial efforts to counter Tehran's "malign influence" in the region.
Two days before the press conference, White House National Security Adviser John Bolton met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Jerusalem.
During the meeting, Bolton guaranteed the US commitment to Israel's security in the midst of the withdrawal from Syria.
Netanyahu on his part said that the time has come for US to recognize the annexation of the Golan Heights. "The Golan Heights is tremendously important for our security," he said.
The Israeli PM said that he hoped to helicopter to the strategic plateau on January 7th with Bolton so that "you will be able to understand perfectly why we will never leave the Golan Heights, and why it is important that all countries recognize Israel's sovereignty over the Golan Heights."
Earlier, in December 2018, Bolton said that the US had no plans of recognizing the Golan Heights as Israeli territory.
In September 2018, US ambassador to Israel David Friedman said that he expected the Golan Heights to remain under Israeli control "forever," and mentioned the possibility of US official recognition of the Golan as Israeli territory.
In October 2018, Jordan announced its decision to not extend a 25-year deal that allowed Israel to use two tracts of territory along its border, as Netanyahu said Israel was planning to negotiate an extension.
"These are Jordanian lands and they will remain," King Abdullah II said. In an "era of regional turmoil" his kingdom -sandwiched between Syria to the north, Iraq to the east and Israel to its west - Jordan wanted to protect its "national interests."
Jordan is one of two Arab countries, the other being Egypt, that have signed a peace treaty with Israel. Despite it, MPs in Jordan have repeatedly called for an end of the agreement. Jordan officials are quite pro-Palestinian, so anti-Israeli sentiments are not surprising.

The other thing worth noting is that the Trump/Wang meeting will take place immediately after the "Super Blood Wolf Moon" that occurs on January 20th and 21st. As we have noted before, the secret rulers of the earth use planetary movements to time major moves. Native Americans call the full moon in January the Wolf Moon because that is when hungry wolves would approach human settlements. The fact that it is also a lunar eclipse, or a blood moon and a supermoon, is a sign that some sort of big moves are planned.
https://www.techtimes.com/articles/236825/20181227/rare-super-blood-wolf-moon-to-coincide-with-total-lunar-eclipse-this-january.htm
Chinese Freemasons have long been saying that limited warfare may be needed before a final settlement can be reached. Perhaps that is why all U.S. carrier groups, obsolete and vulnerable as they are, are staying in their home ports. In this context, it is also interesting to note the increased saber-rattling over Taiwan recently.
It is also possible that there will be a purge of high-level officials who are blocking the Global Currency Reset (GCR). People like President Emmanuel Macron of France, Prime Minister Shinzo Abe of Japan, and Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel come to mind as possibilities. Macron is under siege by patriotic yellow vest protesters who are calling for revolution and the nationalization of the Bank of France. Abe is under attack for selling Japan's water resources to criminal corporations. Netanyahu is facing indictment for multiple crimes.
Also, the collapse of the U.S. dollar, Chinese yuan, British pound, and Australian dollar and a sudden rise in the price of gold and the Japanese yen on January 2nd, followed by a counterattack on the next day, gives us a hint of the secret players behind the GCR. Basically, the Asian royal families who control most of the world's gold made a move against the oil people, who then fought back the following day. The fact that the NASDAQ index closed at the satanic price of 6,666 dollars ($6,665.94) on that day was obviously no coincidence.
In any case, the West will continue purging itself of its criminal overlords in preparation for the planetary reset. On this front, we are seeing a big document dump of 9/11 secrets, ostensibly by the "Dark Overlord" hackers group but probably by the NSA. Pentagon sources say the documents are being released this way to give Trump "plausible deniability."
https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2019-01-05/criminals-who-run-deep-state-will-be-exposed-kim-dotcom-teases-next-round-leaks
"Like a frog being boiled slowly, Trump plays the long game to appease Israel on Syria and by moving the U.S. embassy to Jerusalem until the Zionists are terminated with 9/11 revelations," is how one Pentagon source described the situation.
A big related move was the sudden and very unusual resignation last week of Sultan Muhammad V, the King of Malaysia.
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2019/jan/06/sultan-muhammad-v-steps-down-as-malaysias-king
CIA sources in Asia say the resignation was due to his involvement in the Malaysian 1MDB embezzlement scandal that involves Goldman Sachs, former Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak, and many others. This scandal is not only about stealing Malaysian government funds, but is also connected to the Malaysian Air 370/17 hijacking, mass murder of passengers, and nuclear blackmail of 58 world leaders in Holland during March of 2014.

ISIS Training camps in JORDAN & a wall paid for by US taxpayers
U.S. Trained ISIS at Secret Jordan Base
JERUSALEM - Members of the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant, or ISIS, were trained in 2012 by U.S. instructors working at a secret base in Jordan, according to informed Jordanian officials.
The officials said dozens of ISIS members were trained at the time as part of covert aid to the insurgents targeting the regime of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad in Syria. The officials said the training was not meant to be used for any future campaign in Iraq.
The Jordanian officials said all ISIS members who received U.S. training to fight in Syria were first vetted for any links to extremist groups like al-Qaida. urkey and Jordan were running a training base for the Syrian rebels in the Jordanian town of Safawi in the country's northern desert region.

Israeli TV Shows Footage Of ISIS Training Camp On Israel's Border
Last November Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said his country "won't allow Islamic State figures or other enemy actors, under the cover of the war in Syria, to set up next to our borders," but it appears this has already happened, to the point that a sizable ISIS training camp has been set up just across the Golan Heights border with Israel. Though Syrian al-Qaeda has long been a mainstay in southern Syria along Israel's border, this constitutes the first widespread public acknowledgment and confirmation of a significant ISIS base of operations in the Golan region.

Why Aren't ISIS and Al-Qaeda Attacking Israel?
Israel's air strike in Syria today was coordinated with Turkey, which in turn coordinated rebel attacks throughout Syria timed to coincide with the Israeli strike, according to Egyptian and Jordanian intelligence sources speaking to KleinOnline. The sources said the rebels did not know about the Israeli strike in advance but instead were given specific instructions for when to begin today's major assaults against the regime of President Bashar al-Assad. "Almost the moment the Israel Air Force departed was the moment the rebel advance began," added the Egyptian intelligence source. Multiple reports have noted how the Syrian rebels consist in large part of al-Qaida-linked jihad groups. The Egyptian and Jordanian sources described how immediately after today's Israeli air strike the jihadist rebels used access roads to advance toward Damascus and began heavy clashes with Syrian military forces throughout the country.

Alan M. Dershowitz, professor of law emeritus at Harvard Law School, dined with President Donald Trump Tuesday and spoke to White House officials about the Middle East this week, he said in an interview Wednesday.
Dershowitz, who has established himself as a loud defender of the president's legal rights, met with Trump's staff Tuesday to discuss peace talks in the Middle East. He later ate dinner with Trump and other guests before meeting with officials again the next day.
Dershowitz said he received an invitation from the White House over a week ago to visit and share his thoughts on the Middle East.

"More than a week ago I was invited to the White House to discuss with his staff people the Middle East peace process," Dershowitz said. "This is the third meeting I've had with them about the Middle East peace process."
Dershowitz said he is "very close" to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and that he has also met with Mahmoud Abbas, president of the Palestinian Authority. Dershowitz, who wrote a book entitled "The Case for Israel" in 2003, advocates a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

Egyptian president admits cooperation with Israel 'closest, deepest' than ever before
Egypt's President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi has acknowledged that his administration has maintained very deep relations with the Tel Aviv regime and is engaged in military cooperation with Israel in the restive Sinai Peninsula.
Sisi made the rare acknowledgment during an interview with US television network CBS's "60 Minutes," which was aired on Sunday.
This comes as Egypt, under Sis's rule, has quietly cooperated with Israel on security in the desert peninsula.
Asked whether the cooperation was the closest and deepest that he has had with Israel, Sisi responded, "That is correct. The Air Force sometimes needs to cross to the Israeli side. And that's why we have a wide range of coordination with the Israelis."
Asked why he had not managed to wipe the ongoing militancy out after receiving more than $1bn in annual US military aid, Sisi responded by pointing to the challenges that Washington has faced in Afghanistan against the Taliban.
"Why hasn't the US eliminated the terrorists in Afghanistan after 17 years and spending a trillion dollars?" Sisi asked.
Elsewhere in his remarks, Sisi, who won a second four-year term in office last year after running virtually unopposed, said that cooperation with Israel can be a sensitive and potentially damaging topic in Egypt.
Egypt's military last year denied media reports that it was cooperating with Israel in the violence-hit region of northern Sinai.
The CBS networks broadcast the interview with Sisi despite a request by the Egyptian government not to air the program.
Before the airing of the interview, CBS had said the information given by Sisi was "not the kind of news his government wanted broadcast."
"The 60 Minutes team was contacted by the Egyptian ambassador shortly after and told the interview could not be aired," the network said.
Israel has full diplomatic relations with only two Arab states, Egypt and Jordan, but reports suggest the regime is working behind the scenes to establish formal contact with Saudi Arabia and its allies.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu secretly traveled to Egypt in May last year for talks with Sisi.

Article on the bibi announcement:
Netanyahu: I DEMAND THE CHANCE TO FACE STATE WITNESSES LIVE
This comes in the wake of over half the voters believing that Netanyahu must resign if Attorney-General Avichai Mandelblit indicts him, according to a poll.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu demanded to have the chance to face the state's witnesses in the corruption cases against him on live television, the prime minister said in an address Monday.
Netanyahu said that he had made the same demand twice before, and was rejected. What is the prosecution afraid of? Netanyahu asked.
"There is nonstop pressure on the Attorney-General to indict me," Netanyahu said. "Maybe if I proposed a new disengagement or divided Jerusalem or abandoned our security they would leave me alone, but I will never do that."
"If you're going to say there's a bribe, why don't you do a complete job?" the prime minister asked. "Lapid met with Noni Mozes dozens of times and deleted all documentation of the meetings, and supported Noni's law to close Israel Hayom and got positive media coverage."
The address was announced by a Likud spokesman and not the Prime Minister's Office, an indication the address will be political.
While Netanyahu's spokespeople had earlier declined to speculate about the topic. Netanyahu will be meeting with his legal defense team, led by attorney Amit Hadad, ahead of the address.
In recent days, Netanyahu has complained about reports that Attorney-General Avichai Mandelblit intends to announce his plans to indict Netanyahu pending a hearing before the April 9 election and as early as February. The prime minister has insisted that if such an announcement is made, the hearing also take place before the election.
Police have recommended bribery charges in Case 1000, the expensive gift affair, Case 2000, the newspaper collusion scandal, and Case 4000, the Bezeq-Walla deal.

Gaining control of the Golan Heights has long been a goal of Israel.
In 2015, prominent Israeli politician Naftali Bennett called for the world to recognize the Golan Heights as Israeli territory, while calling for the expansion of Jewish settlers in the region.
“I want to challenge the entire world,” Bennett said at the 15th annual Herzliya Conference of the Institute for Policy and Strategy. “I want to give the international community an opportunity to demonstrate their ethics. Recognize Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights.”
In mid-February 2017 during his visit to the White House, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu asked U.S. President Donald Trump to recognize Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights, which was seized from Syria in the 1967 Middle East war, and unofficially annexed in 1981.
Netanyahu told Israeli and foreign media after his meeting with President Trump that he had raised the Golan issue, and said without elaborating that the U.S. leader was not surprised by the request. Israel made a similar request to the Obama administration in 2015, but it was rejected.
On February 15th 2017 the Independent reported that billionaire globalist activist George Soros, known for his investment in pro-western color revolutions, had invested $14.9 million in Goldman Sachs in the fourth quarter of 2016.

Netanyahu Says Israel to Continue Withstanding 'Iran's Aggression' in Syria
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Sunday that Israel would continue to confront Iran's military activities in Syria.
"Our position is clear. We will continue to act against the Iranian military entrenchment in Syria, including at present, and we will act against any element that undermines, or attempts to undermine, the security of Israel", Netanyahu said a government meeting, as quoted on his Twitter.
The prime minister added that he intended to discuss a number of important issues with US National Security Adviser John Bolton later in the day.
"This evening I will meet with US National Security Adviser John Bolton. I will discuss with him the efforts to block the Iranian aggression in our region, the situation in Syria in continuation of both [US] President [Donald] Trump's decision and the conversation I had with [Russian] President [Vladimir] Putin last Friday, and the deepening of intelligence and operational cooperation between Israel and the US, which is becoming closer all the time", Netanyahu said.
In December, US President Donald Trump said that the US forces would pull out of Syria since the Daesh* terrorist group had been defeated there.

Syria conflict: Bolton says US withdrawal is conditional
The withdrawal of US troops from Syria depends on certain conditions, US National Security Adviser John Bolton says, in a further indication that the process is being slowed down.
On a trip to Israel and Turkey, he said he would seek Turkish assurances that Kurds in northern Syria would be safe.
The US also wants to ensure that the remnants of the Islamic State (IS) group are defeated, he added.
President Donald Trump has faced strong criticism over the planned US pullout.
When he first announced the move in the middle of December, he said: "They're all coming back and they're coming back now."
US officials said American forces had been given 30 days to leave Syria.
Mr Trump also said at the time that IS had been "defeated".
The development shocked allies and US defence officials alike, with Defence Secretary Jim Mattis and senior aide Brett McGurk resigning soon after. On Saturday, Department of Defence chief of staff Kevin Sweeney became the third senior Pentagon official to announce his resignation since President Trump's announcement.
Meanwhile, America's Kurdish allies in north-east Syria were left feeling exposed as Turkey, which regards them as terrorists, appeared poised to move against them.
But Mr Trump seemed to row back last week when he said troops were being pulled out "slowly" and that they would be fighting remaining IS militants at the same time.
What did John Bolton say?
"We don't think the Turks ought to undertake military action that is not fully co-ordinated with and agreed to by the United States at a minimum so they don't endanger our troops, but also so that they meet the president's requirement that the Syrian opposition forces that have fought with us are not endangered," Mr Bolton said in Israel ahead of talks with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
He told reporters there was no timetable for a US withdrawal from Syria but that there was not an unlimited commitment.
Mr Bolton also said President Trump wanted to ensure that IS was "destroyed".
Mr Netanyahu said he would discuss Iran's ambitions in Syria when he met Mr Bolton on Sunday evening.
On Tuesday, US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo will begin a week-long tour of the Middle East designed to reassure allies in the region.
The US partnership with the Kurdish-led Syria Democratic Forces (SDF) is credited with playing a major role in the demise of IS.
But the main fighting force in the SDF is the Kurdish YPG militia, which Turkey regards as a terrorist group.
On Sunday, a spokesman for Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said it was "irrational" to suggest Turkey targeted Kurds.
Ibrahim Kalin said Turkey's focus was on the YPG and the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) - which Ankara also regards as a terror group.
What is the US presence in Syria?
Some 2,000 US military personnel are reported to be in Syria although the real numbers could be higher.
American ground troops first became involved in Syria in autumn 2015 when then-President Barack Obama sent in a small number of special forces to train and advise local Kurdish fighters who were fighting IS.
The US did this reluctantly after several attempts at arming anti-IS groups had descended into chaos.
Over the intervening years the number of US troops in Syria has increased, and a network of bases and airfields has been established in an arc across the north-eastern part of the country.

Israeli alliances crumble as candidates envision a post-Netanyahu era
JERUSALEM (NYTIMES) - With elections a few months away, it is political fratricide season in Israel: From left to right, candidates are sticking knives in the ribs of their natural allies in hopes of elevating their own chances of succeeding Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
This week, the Zionist Union, a 4-year-old liberal alliance, blew itself up as the Labor Party chief, Mr Avi Gabbay, humiliated veteran politician Tzipi Livni by abruptly breaking with her and her boutique party Hatnuah (The Movement) while television cameras rolled.
Popular ministers, Mr Naftali Bennett and Ms Ayelet Shaked, abandoned their right-wing party, the Jewish Home, to form a new one - the New Right - that they vowed would be less beholden to religious leaders but would still push to settle the West Bank and oppose a Palestinian state.
"People can say, 'Netanyahu will win anyway, so maybe I'll vote for so-and-so'," Prof Rahat said. "For the Likud, it's not good."
Mr Netanyahu has a more immediate reason to fear: Waiting just offstage with the equivalent of a broadaxe in hand is the Israeli attorney general, Mr Avichai Mandelblit, who is expected to decide in the coming months whether to heed police recommendations that he indict Mr Netanyahu on bribery or other charges arising from three major corruption investigations.

Gaza flotilla raid
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to navigationJump to search
Coordinates: 32.64113°N 33.56727°E
The Gaza flotilla raid was a military operation by Israel against six civilian ships of the "Gaza Freedom Flotilla" on 31 May 2010 in international waters in the Mediterranean Sea. Nine activists were killed on one ship during the raid and ten Israeli soldiers were wounded, one seriously. One Turkish activist died later of his wounds. Three of the six flotilla ships, organized by the Free Gaza Movement and the Turkish Foundation for Human Rights and Freedoms and Humanitarian Relief (?HH), were carrying humanitarian aid and construction materials, with the intention of breaking the Israeli blockade of the Gaza Strip. Israel had warned the flotilla to abort their mission, describing it as a provocation.
On 31 May 2010, Israeli Shayetet 13 naval commandos boarded the ships from speedboats and helicopters in order to force the ships to the Israeli port of Ashdod for inspection. On the Turkish ship was the MV Mavi Marmara, according to the Israel's own Turkel Commission, the Israeli Navy faced resistance from about 40 of the 590 passengers, including IHH activists - described in the commission's report as a separate "hardcore group" who were said to be armed with iron bars and knives. According to flotilla organizer Greta Berlin, the Israeli soldiers didn't start firing until an activist seized a gun from one of them. During the struggle, nine activists were killed including eight Turkish nationals and one Turkish American, and many were wounded. On 23 May 2014, a tenth member of the flotilla died in hospital after being in a coma for four years.Five of the activists who were killed had previously declared their desire to become witnesses.Ten of the commandos were also wounded, one of them seriously.
According to a UN report, all activist deaths were caused by gunshots, and "the circumstances of the killing of at least six of the passengers were in a manner consistent with an extra-legal, arbitrary and summary execution. The five other ships in the flotilla employed passive resistance, which was suppressed without major incident. According to the UN report, several of the passengers were injured and the leg of one was fractured.The ships were towed to Israel. Some were deported immediately, while about 600 were detained after they refused to sign deportation orders; a few of them were slated for prosecution. After international criticism, all of the detained activists were also deported.
The raid drew widespread condemnation internationally and resulted in a deterioration of Israel-Turkey relations. Israel consequently eased its blockade on the Gaza Strip. All activists were freed, yet only the Turkish and Greek ships were returned. Israel confiscated and continues to hold the other ships, as well as most of the property (including all media recordings) of over 700 passengers.
There were several probes into the incident. A UNHRC report in September 2010 into the incident deemed the blockade illegal and stated that Israel's actions were "disproportionate" and "'betrayed an unacceptable level of brutality"', with evidence for "'willful killing"'. The UNHRC later also set up a panel of five human rights experts to examine the conclusions of the Palmer report. The panel stated that Israel's blockade of Gaza amounted to collective punishment and was unlawful. United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon announced a parallel probe in August 2010 by a four-member panel headed by Geoffrey Palmer. The Palmer report was published on 2 September 2011 after being delayed, reportedly to allow Israel and Turkey to continue reconciliation talks. The report found that the Israeli naval blockade of Gaza was legal, and that there were "serious questions about the conduct, true nature and objectives of the flotilla organizers, particularly IHH".The report also found that the degree of force used against the Mavi Marmara was "excessive and unreasonable" and that the way Israel treated detained crew members violated international human rights law.
Israel has offered Turkey $20 million in compensation for the raid. On 22 March 2013, in a half-hour telephone exchange between Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Turkey's Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdo?an, the former apologized on behalf of his nation; Erdo?an accepted the apology and both agreed to enter into further discussions. On June 29, 2016 the agreement was finalized and approved by the Israeli government.

Netanyahu tells Putin: Israel will continue fight against Iran in Syria
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told Russian President Vladimir Putin that Israel will continue working against "Iranian military repositioning in Syria".
Netanyahu's comments were made in a phone call between the two leaders, Anadolu Agency reported, with Netanyahu's office also sending a written statement about the issue to its Russian counterpart.
The statement - a copy of which reached Anadolu - said that both leaders discussed the latest developments in Syria, while "Netanyahu agreed with [Putin] to continue cooperation between the armies of the two countries [in Syria]".
"Israel insists on continuing its efforts aimed at undermining the Iranian military's repositioning in Syria," Netanyahu said, according to the statement.
Over the past few years, Israel has struck scores of Iranian targets in Syria, despite its official policy of non-involvement in the Syrian Civil War which has been ongoing since 2011.

Q Research General #5883: "WE WILL NOT GO WITHOUT A FIGHT" Edition
Who Runs Our World?
ur world is run by oligarchs, the holders of vast wealth from monopolies in banking, resource extraction, manufacturing, and technology. Oligarchs have such power that most of the world doesn't even know of their influence over our lives. Their overall agenda is global power - a world government, run by them - to be achieved through planned steps of social engineering. The oligarchs remain in the background and have heads of state and entire governments acting in their service. Presidents and prime ministers are their puppets. Bureaucrats and politicians are their factotums.
Who are politicians? Politicians are people who work for the powerful while pretending to represent the people who voted for them. This double-dealing involves a lot of lying, so successful politicians must be good at it. It's not an easy job to make the insane agenda of the powerful seem reasonable. Politicians can't reveal this agenda because it almost always goes against the interests of their constituents, so they become adept at sophistry, mystification, and the appearance of authority. For example, wars for Israel have been part of the agenda of the powerful for years. Since 2001, wars for Israel have been sold as "the war on terror" and lots of lies had to be made up as to why the war on terror was a real thing. The visible faces promoting the war on terror were neoconservatives in the US, almost all of whom were advocates for Israel, or Zionists. Zionists are not the only members of the oligarchy, but they seem to be its lead actors.
With this perspective we may judge all kinds of world events, such as the many false flag terror attacks which have been perpetrated in one country after another to bring about political objectives. False flag attacks range from Operation Gladio to demonize leftists, 9-11 to demonize Arabs and Muslims, and the shooting down of the MH-17 airliner to demonize Russia. Under an atmosphere of terror, with citizens clamoring for revenge, all kinds of political goals can be achieved.
Propaganda is also vital. Control of information through a likewise controlled media has facilitated mass brainwashing. To control the narrative, whistle blowers and truth tellers must be isolated and destroyed, preferably in the open, so as to warn others away. This is what is happening with Julian Assange.
The attack on Gilad Atzmon is an other example. Atzmon has been a major critic of the role of Jewish political power in our world - not just in Palestine, but all over the western world. When he says "we are all Palestinians" he is making the observation that Europe and North America are being Israelified. For example, some police in the US go for training in Israel, where they learn to view the US public, particularly African Americans, the way the Israeli military views Palestinians - as enemies to be shot in the streets and abusively treated. In the US, people are not allowed to question or discuss Jewish power, when it is evident that AIPAC, the lobby for Israel, completely controls both houses of the US Congress. We recall the members of Congress giving Benjamin Netanyahu 29 standing ovations during his denunciation of Iran in 2011. In Britain, mass insanity has taken hold, at least in the media, in the demonization of Russia via the Skripal affair and Luke Harding's MI6 journalism in The Guardian. This is taking place solely because of Russia's thwarting of Israel in its attempt to destroy Syria. For the neocons, the agenda is always war - the stick to bring recalcitrant states in line with the New World Order. This behavior is so dangerous that it would be crazy if we did not speak about who is doing this, and why.
In December 2018 Atzmon was banned from playing a jazz gig in Islington, north of London, because a powerful entity - the Zionist Herut Likud UK - initiated a character assassination and attack on his livelihood through Richard Watts, leader of the Islington Town Council. The Council created the lie that in banning Atzmon it was protecting the citizens of Islington from "antisemitism." In fact, it is only protecting organized Zionists - supporters of the racist state of Israel - from one of their most effective critics.

PM: Mandelblit facing 'thuggish, inhumane' pressure to announce indictment
As Netanyahu accuses 'left, media' of seeking to 'steal' the April election, AG warns of attempt 'to undermine the public's trust' in the justice system
In increasingly combative comments as corruption probes against him come to a head, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu lashed out Thursday at "the left" and at "the media," claiming they were coordinating a "thuggish" campaign to pressure Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit to announce an indictment against him in order to "steal" the April 9 elections.
Mandelblit, meanwhile, warned of attempts "to undermine the public's trust in the professionalism and impartiality" of the justice system's decisions.
In a statement to the press, Netanyahu asserted that "For years now, left-wing protesters and the media have leveled thuggish, inhumane pressure at the attorney general to get him to file an indictment against me at any cost - even when there's nothing there.
"This pressure is now reaching a climax. They're trying to force the attorney general to brazenly intervene in the elections by ordering me to a hearing, despite knowing that it won't be possible to conclude the hearing process by election day. It's unconscionable to start a hearing process before elections that can't be concluded by the elections," Netanyahu said.
"The left....has a clear purpose: to try to depose a prime minister through a drumhead court-martial and to steal the election from you, the citizens of Israel."
Netanyahu's was responding to growing reports that Mandelblit intends to announce his decision on whether to indict the premier, pending a hearing, before the election - possibly as early as next month.
Earlier Thursday former state attorney Moshe Lador, who oversaw the prosecution of former president Moshe Katsav and ex-prime minister Ehud Olmert, told Israel Radio Mandelblit must make a decision on the three corruption cases by the end of February, "so the public can digest and internalize its meaning" before election day.
While Lador insisted Mandelblit's decision must be free of any political considerations - "the decision must be based on 'yes' or 'no,' whether there is or isn't enough evidence to construct an indictment" - he also said voters had the right to learn whether the evidence against Netanyahu was serious before making their decision on election day.
"The timing is unavoidable. There's no other choice because of the elections."

Early Elections: Who Will Dethrone 'The King of Israel'?
"A historic mistake" is how Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu responded to calls for early elections last November. A few weeks later, he spoke, in exaggerated confidence of the "unanimous" agreement of his right-wing coalition that early elections must be held next April.
So why the change of heart?
Netanyahu may not be a good leader, but he is certainly a cunning politician. The fact that he is gearing up for a fifth term at the helm of Israel's fractious political scene speaks volumes of his ability to survive against many odds.
But it is not all about Netanyahu and his clever ways. Israeli politics are truly dismal. The Left, if it ever earned such a title, is marginal, if not entirely irrelevant. The Center lacks any real political identity or decipherable discourse concerning, for example, foreign policy or true vision for peace and coexistence. The Right, which now defines Israeli society as a whole, has moved further to the right, and is saturated in religious zeal, ultra-nationalism, while some of its parties are flirting with outright fascism.
As strange as this may sound, in the company of Education Minister, Naftali Bennett, Justice Minister, Ayelet Shaked, and the recently-resigned Defense Minister, Avigdor Lieberman, Netanyahu is not the most extreme.
Indeed, per Israel's Orwellian politics, nothing is what it seems.
Netanyahu is now paying the price for his overconfidence. The right-wing creature that he has so diligently created to quash his enemies, has grown so powerful and unhinged, that even the prime minister himself could no longer control political outcomes.
The once unchallenged Israeli leader has himself grown too comfortable with power. His family too has become too accustomed to the good life. His wife is now standing trial for corruption and misuse of public funds.
As of early December, the police have recommended, and for third time, that Netanyahu be charged with fraud, accepting bribes and breach of trust. Between direct involvement in the massive corruption racket that his office has espoused, and the dirty dealings of his own circle of aides and profiteers, the Israeli leader is no longer untouchable.
Netanyahu's sense of safety has always been buttressed by his good standing in opinion polls.
Even now, his numbers are still relatively high. His Likud party would still win an easy election - 30 seats in the Knesset's 120 seats - if the vote was to be held today.

Israel Brags That It Received "Almost Everything It Wanted" In Meeting with Pompeo
In yet another display of utter subservience to the Jewish state of Israel, U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Brazil yesterday to reassure his Zionist masters that the U.S. was still committed to Israel's security and protection, despite President Trump's vague decision to withdrawn U.S. military forces from Syria.
Following the meeting, an Israeli official boasted that his country got "almost everything it wanted" out of Pompeo, once again demonstrating that the U.S. government, by and large, places the interests of Jews and the Jewish state of Israel ahead of Americans, especially in the realm of U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East.
The Algemeiner reports:
Israel Got Everything It Wanted
Jerusalem got "almost everything it wanted" from Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's meeting in Brazil on Tuesday with US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, an unnamed senior Israeli diplomatic official was quoted as saying on Wednesday.
"Israel had 8 requests - 7 of which were accepted," the official revealed. [...]
Pompeo told Netanyahu that the pullout of US military forces from Syria "in no way changes anything this administration is working on alongside Israel."
"The counter-ISIS campaign continues, our efforts to counter Iranian aggression continue and our commitment to Middle East stability and the protection of Israel continues in the same way it did before that decision was made," he added.
Later on Tuesday, State Department spokesperson Robert Palladino said Pompeo and Netanyahu had talked about "the unacceptable threat that regional aggression and provocation by Iran and its agents poses to Israeli and regional security."
Let's be clear here: the Israelis and their Western puppets - the U.S. and NATO allies - are the only ones in the Middle East engaging in "aggression and provocation" in the region.
The U.S. and her NATO allies have invaded, occupied, destabilized, and interfered with countless sovereign nations in the region, including Iraq, Syria, Iran, Yemen, and Libya, among others. The Israelis regularly launch military strikes on Syria, which has almost led to a broader war involving Russia who has backed the Assad regime, and both Israel and her Western puppets have covertly influenced countless countries in the Middle East, all in order to ensure Israeli domination and expansion in the region. It's a total disgrace, and the narrative endlessly disseminated by Zionist stooges like Secretary of State Mike Pompeo is a total inversion of reality.
President Trump's "America First" rhetoric is becoming more and more of a joke as his administration continues to grovel before Israel while he largely fails to accomplish any of his "America First" campaign promises, particularly his pledge to build a wall on the southern border with Mexico.

Many signs indicate that 2019 will be a breakthrough year in the battle against the satan-worshiping Khazarian mafia. Not only have mass arrests begun, but the mass-murdering part of the pharmacidical/medical establishment is finally being taken out as well. Another obvious sign it is no longer business as usual comes from the fact that the U.S. military is being withdrawn from Syria, Afghanistan, Iraq, and elsewhere. And this time the U.S. government shutdown may actually result in formal bankruptcy procedures against the illegal corporate government that has occupied Washington, D.C. since 1871.
Let's start with the U.S. military withdrawals, since they mark one of the biggest changes seen since the end of World War II when the perpetual war economy of the U.S. military-industrial complex began. Pentagon sources say U.S. President Donald Trump's Christmas Day visit to Iraq portends a pull-out from that country. This follows withdrawal announcements from Afghanistan and Syria, as well as a ceasefire in Yemen. We also note that almost all of the U.S. carrier groups are now at rest in their home ports.
Even more dramatically, the sources say, "Acting Defense Secretary Patrick Shanahan's mission will be [to bring out in public view the] space force, bring troops home, release extraterrestrial and suppressed technology, close overseas bases, beat swords into plowshares and cut waste, while building a more lethal military." This means peace on earth and goodwill to all in a very real sense this holiday season.
The Pentagon sources also say the long U.S. government shutdown "makes it easy to arrest Deep-Staters embedded in the government." Furthermore, the first senior official to be publicly tried in "Nuremburg 2.0 will be [former CIA Director] John Brennan," the Pentagon sources say.
There is also a lot of speculation about the Bush/Clinton crime family and their house-slave Barack Obama, since all of them have apparently vanished from public view since the U.S. government shutdown started. We all want to see them face a public trial for their many crimes against humanity. This is about mass murder in Haiti, Japan, and elsewhere, and not just about selling U.S. uranium resources to Russia in exchange for bribes. Hopefully this will be on all the world's TV screens and monitors sometime early in the New Year.
The other thing we need to see is a final takedown of the European Union, which is structured exactly like the Soviet Union was, with only a rubber-stamp parliament and secret votes for a single candidate for top positions.
On this front, Pentagon sources say lame-duck German Chancellor Angela Merkel is being forced to withdraw German troops from Afghanistan, while her besieged French slave President Emmanuel Macron is being forced to pull French troops out of Syria. This will remove their remaining control of oil and heroin money and hasten the downfall of their criminal regimes, CIA sources say.
There were also further signs at last that big changes will take place after the month of May. As we noted last week, Japan will have a new emperor in May, and the resigned Prime Minister of Belgium was asked by the King to stay on until May. Now it turns out Israel will have a new government in May as well. The resignation of the Israeli government last week means the satanic mass-murderer Benjamin Netanyahu will finally face long-awaited justice.

Q Research General #5839: Nobel Regrets Obama Edition
Many signs indicate that 2019 will be a breakthrough year in the battle against the satan-worshiping Khazarian mafia. Not only have mass arrests begun, but the mass-murdering part of the pharmacidical/medical establishment is finally being taken out as well. Another obvious sign it is no longer business as usual comes from the fact that the U.S. military is being withdrawn from Syria, Afghanistan, Iraq, and elsewhere. And this time the U.S. government shutdown may actually result in formal bankruptcy procedures against the illegal corporate government that has occupied Washington, D.C. since 1871.
Let's start with the U.S. military withdrawals, since they mark one of the biggest changes seen since the end of World War II when the perpetual war economy of the U.S. military-industrial complex began. Pentagon sources say U.S. President Donald Trump's Christmas Day visit to Iraq portends a pull-out from that country. This follows withdrawal announcements from Afghanistan and Syria, as well as a ceasefire in Yemen. We also note that almost all of the U.S. carrier groups are now at rest in their home ports.
Even more dramatically, the sources say, "Acting Defense Secretary Patrick Shanahan's mission will be [to bring out in public view the] space force, bring troops home, release extraterrestrial and suppressed technology, close overseas bases, beat swords into plowshares and cut waste, while building a more lethal military." This means peace on earth and goodwill to all in a very real sense this holiday season.
The Pentagon sources also say the long U.S. government shutdown "makes it easy to arrest Deep-Staters embedded in the government." Furthermore, the first senior official to be publicly tried in "Nuremburg 2.0 will be [former CIA Director] John Brennan," the Pentagon sources say.
There is also a lot of speculation about the Bush/Clinton crime family and their house-slave Barack Obama, since all of them have apparently vanished from public view since the U.S. government shutdown started. We all want to see them face a public trial for their many crimes against humanity. This is about mass murder in Haiti, Japan, and elsewhere, and not just about selling U.S. uranium resources to Russia in exchange for bribes. Hopefully this will be on all the world's TV screens and monitors sometime early in the New Year.
The other thing we need to see is a final takedown of the European Union, which is structured exactly like the Soviet Union was, with only a rubber-stamp parliament and secret votes for a single candidate for top positions.
On this front, Pentagon sources say lame-duck German Chancellor Angela Merkel is being forced to withdraw German troops from Afghanistan, while her besieged French slave President Emmanuel Macron is being forced to pull French troops out of Syria. This will remove their remaining control of oil and heroin money and hasten the downfall of their criminal regimes, CIA sources say.
There were also further signs at last that big changes will take place after the month of May. As we noted last week, Japan will have a new emperor in May, and the resigned Prime Minister of Belgium was asked by the King to stay on until May. Now it turns out Israel will have a new government in May as well. The resignation of the Israeli government last week means the satanic mass-murderer Benjamin Netanyahu will finally face long-awaited justice.

AG said aiming for February announcement on Netanyahu indictment
Report says Case 1000 likely to produce breach of trust, rather than bribery, charge; officials split on Case 2000
Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit is likely to announce by February his conclusions on a possible indictment of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in three graft cases, Channel 10 news reported Wednesday, citing a legal source familiar with the investigations.
An announcement at that time would come two months before general elections on April 9.
Police have recommended that Netanyahu be indicted for bribery in all three of the probes against him, and it is now up to Mandelblit to decide whether to press charges.
In Case 1000, Netanyahu is suspected of receiving benefits worth about NIS 1 million ($282,000) from billionaire benefactors, including Israeli Hollywood producer Arnon Milchan, in exchange for assistance on various issues.
Case 2000 involves a suspected illicit quid pro quo deal between Netanyahu and Yedioth Ahronoth publisher Arnon Mozes that would have seen the prime minister hobble Israel Hayom in return for more favorable coverage from Yedioth.
In Case 4000, reportedly the most serious of the three, Netanyahu is suspected of having advanced regulatory decisions as communications minister and prime minister from 2015 to 2017 that benefited Shaul Elovitch, the controlling shareholder in Bezeq, the country's largest telecommunications firm, in exchange for positive coverage from Elovitch's Walla news site.

Brazil's new President vows to fight "Marxist garbage" and "climate change hoax"
On New Year's Day, Brazil's new president, Jair Bolsonaro, was sworn in - and he started his presidency with a bang.
One of his main goals is to fight the "Marxist garbage" that has installed itself in educational institutions, Samhällsnytt reports.
If any values are to be taught in schools alongside the subject knowledge, then it's traditional family values, the newly appointed Minister of Education Ricardo Vélez has stated.
Brazil's hosting of the UN climate summit in 2019 has been canceled - because the president believes that the doomsday climate change warnings are exaggerated and propaganda from the global left and cultural Marxists.
As we reported earlier he has promised to make the process short with the criminal gangs that plague the country.
Police have been instructed to shoot to kill in confrontations with armed gang criminals, and in Rio de Janeiro, snipers will be deployed to eliminate violent street criminals, and all law-abiding Brazilian citizens will have the right to carry weapons to protect themselves.
Bolsonaro also wants to strengthen the ties to Trump and has announced that he will follow the US example and move Brazil's embassy in Israel to Jerusalem.
Many of the ministers appointed by Bolsonaro, like he himself, have a military past. Only two of the new ministers are women.
Judge Sergio Moro has been appointed as Minister of Justice. It was he who sentenced former President Lula da Silva to twelve years in prison for corruption.
Bolsonaro gets off to a good start as president in terms of public opinion. 75 per cent of Brazilians believe that the new Government's path is the right way to go.
Several State leaders, including Viktor Orbán and Benjamin Netanyahu of Hungary and Israel, attended the inauguration ceremony to honour Bolsonaro.

US, Israel exit UN cultural agency, claiming bias
The United States and Israel officially quit the U.N.'s educational, scientific and cultural agency at the stroke of midnight, the culmination of a process triggered more than a year ago amid concerns that the organization fosters anti-Israel bias.
The withdrawal is mainly procedural yet serves a new blow to UNESCO, co-founded by the U.S. after World War II to foster peace.
The Trump administration filed its notice to withdraw in October 2017 and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu followed suit.
The Paris-based organization has been denounced by its critics as a crucible for anti-Israel bias: blasted for criticizing Israel's occupation of east Jerusalem, naming ancient Jewish sites as Palestinian heritage sites and granting full membership to Palestine in 2011.
Israeli U.N. envoy Danny Danon said Tuesday that his country "will not be a member of an organization whose goal is to deliberately act against us, and that has become a tool manipulated by Israel's enemies."
The U.S. has demanded "fundamental reform" in the agency that is best known for its World Heritage program to protect cultural sites and traditions. UNESCO also works to improve education for girls, promote understanding of the Holocaust's horrors, and to defend media freedom.
The withdrawals will not greatly impact UNESCO financially, since it has been dealing with a funding slash ever since 2011, when both Israel and the U.S. stopped paying dues after Palestine was voted in as a member state. Since then officials estimate that the U.S. - which accounted for around 22 percent of the total budget - has accrued $600 million in unpaid dues, which was one of the reasons for President Donald Trump's decision to withdraw. Israel owes an estimated $10 million.
UNESCO Director General Audrey Azoulay took up her post just after Trump announced the pullout. Azoulay, who has Jewish and Moroccan heritage, has presided over the launch of a Holocaust education website and the U.N.'s first educational guidelines on fighting anti-Semitism - initiatives that might be seen as responding to U.S. and Israeli concerns.
Officials say that many of the reasons the U.S. cited for withdrawal do not apply anymore, noting that since then, all 12 texts on the Middle East passed at UNESCO have been consensual among Israel and Arab member states.
In April, Israel's ambassador to UNESCO said the mood was "like a wedding" after member nations signed off on a rare compromise resolution on "Occupied Palestine," and UNESCO diplomats hailed a possible breakthrough on longstanding Israeli-Arab tensions.
The document was still quite critical of Israel, however, and the efforts weren't enough to encourage the U.S. and Israel to reconsider their decision to quit.
In recent years, Israel has been infuriated by repeated resolutions that ignore and diminish its historical connection to the Holy Land and that have named ancient Jewish sites as Palestinian heritage sites.
The State Department couldn't comment because of the U.S. government shutdown. Earlier, the department told UNESCO officials the U.S. intends to stay engaged at UNESCO as a non-member "observer state" on "non-politicized" issues, including the protection of World Heritage sites, advocating for press freedoms and promoting scientific collaboration and education.
The U.S. could potentially seek that status during UNESCO Executive Board meetings in April.
The United States has pulled out of UNESCO before. The Reagan administration did so in 1984 because it viewed the agency as mismanaged, corrupt and used to advance Soviet interests. The U.S. rejoined in 2003.

Netanyahu: 'Undemocratic for hearing on my cases to happen before election'
"The hearing doesn't end until you hear my side, and it doesn't make sense to open the hearing process before the election, if you can't finish it before the election."
Holding a pre-indictment hearing on his investigations before the elections on April 9 would be deleterious to democracy, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Monday.
"The hearing doesn't end until you hear my side, and it doesn't make sense to open the hearing process before the election if you can't finish it before the election," Netanyahu said in a press conference in Rio de Janeiro.
"Imagine what would happen if a prime minister was deposed before the end of a hearing, and then, at the end of the hearing, [the attorney-general] decides to close the case," he added. "It's absurd. It would cause terrible harm to democracy. In a democracy, who will lead is determined according to the polls and not a partial legal process."
Police have recommended that Netanyahu be indicted on corruption charges in three different cases, and Attorney-General Avichai Mandelblit plans to make decisions on all of them at once. Mandelblit said in the past week that the timing of his decision will not be impacted by the election.
Netanyahu said he will not resign if Mandelblit decides to hold a hearing, because "Israel is a country of laws, and according to the law, the prime minister doesn't have to resign during a hearing process."
Asked if he thinks the legal establishment is trying to get him, Netanyahu said: "I hope not. That's why we have laws. Decisions aren't made based on partial legal processes."

US committed to 'protection of Israel' despite Syria withdrawal, Pompeo assures Netanyahu
The US 'withdrawal' from Syria might not mean the end of all its Syria-related operations where Israel is concerned, as Secretary of State Mike Pompeo reaffirmed Washington's ongoing commitment to Israel's security on Tuesday.
Speaking ahead of a meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Brazil, Pompeo said the US' commitment to Israel was unchanged, despite the pullout of US troops from Syria announced by the Trump administration last month. Pompeo said that the US effort to "counter Iranian aggression" would continue along with the "protection of Israel" just as it had before.
The talks between Pompeo and Netanyahu in Brasilia are set to focus on the US withdrawal and how the US-Israeli cooperation will work going forward.
Before the meeting, Netanyahu said there was "a lot" to discuss including how to "intensify even further our intelligence and operations cooperation in Syria and elsewhere to block Iranian aggression in the Middle East."
Earlier, Trump had reassured Israel that the US would "take great care" of Israel despite the withdrawal, citing the billions in foreign aid Washington gives to Israel every year.
Netanyahu said he was very appreciative of the "strong support and unequivocal support" from the US in its efforts at "self-defense" against Syria and Hezbollah.
He also praised the Israeil Defense Forces last week after they carried out strikes against alleged 'Iranian targets' on Christmas Day, endangering two civilian flights in the process.
Trump declared victory over ISIS in Syria and announced a US troop withdrawal in December - a move which angered many top military figures. On Monday, an anonymous senior Israeli source said that Trump had responded positively to a request from Netanyahu to stagger the US exit from Syria.

Israeli Prime Minister Says Will Not Resign if Indicted on Graft Charges
Netanyahu and his wife Sarah are allegedly involved in the Bezeq-Walla corruption affair, also known as Case 4000, being accused of promoting the interests of Bezeq, the country's largest telecom provider, in exchange for favorable coverage of Netanyahu's activities by the popular news website Walla controlled by the company.
Benjamin Netanyahu said Monday he was not going to step down if he faced corruption charges.
"I do not intend to resign," the prime minister said at a press conference in Brazil aired by i24 News.
Netanyahu has also been suspected of getting expensive gifts from business circles (Case 1000) and trying to reach a deal with the leadership of the Yedioth Ahronoth newspaper (Case 2000). However, Netanyahu refuted all the accusations.
Last week, Netanyahu called snap elections for April 9 amid corruption allegations. Initially, the parliamentary elections were slated for November 2019. The first public opinion poll after the announcement of snap elections predicted that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was heading toward an easy re-election.

The United States administration has reportedly blocked a $500 million arms deal between Israel and Croatia after Outgoing Defense Secretary James Mattis rejected a request from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for the sale of 12 F-16 fighter jets.
"For reasons we don't fully understand, the Americans hardened their conditions and, apparently, we misread their position on the deal. Practically, the F-16 deal with Croatia is dead and we don't think it is possible to get an agreement that will reconcile the U.S. conditions and the Croatian demands in the tender," Barak Ravid of Israel's Channel 10 news reported on Axios news portal Thursday.
"Netanyahu called Mattis two weeks ago - before the latter's resignation - and asked him to soften the U.S. terms for the deal. Mattis told Netanyahu he had gone a long way for Israel on several issues but couldn't show any flexibility regarding this deal," Ravid reported.
Netanyahu considered calling Marilyn Hewson, the president and CEO of Lockheed Martin, which manufactures the jets, to ask for help in getting the deal approved but ultimately decided it was a lost cause, the report stated quoting an unnamed Israeli Official as saying to the journalist.

PM: Election campaign would be worst time for US to release peace plan
The United States is unlikely to roll-out its long awaited peace blueprint during the Israeli election campaign because it wants to maximize, not minimize, its chance of success, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Monday.
Asked at a press conference in Rio de Janeiro about the timing of the publication of the plan, Netanyahu said Washington is interested in giving that plan the greatest chance of success, "and in their estimation elections are the time when it will have the least chance of succeeding."
The prime minister said that it would be preferable to have a public discussion about the plan after the elections, not during them, since the way in which different actors relate to the plan will "understandably" be of a different nature if released during the campaign.
There is some speculation now that the US might present the plan after the elections, while coalition negotiations are underway. In this case, the plan would then become a central consideration for parties needing to decide whether or not to join the future government.
Asked about Israel's ties with Arab states in the region and when he will make another official visit to an Arab state as he did in October to Oman, Netanyahu said he would not say when he will meet publicly with the next Arab leader, "But it is not going to be very long."
"I can tell you that I meet with many Arab leaders," he said. "Muslim and Arab leaders. I meet a lot of them, all the time."
Netanyahu said he did not know whether the Trump peace plan, when presented, would bring the Palestinians to the peace table. But, he added, "What I am trying to do is normalize relations with the Arab world so that the dog starts wagging the tail, and not the other way around."
Jerusalem has long been frustrated that the Palestinians have a seeming veto over the normalization of ties between Israel and the Arab world, and would like to now see the Persian Gulf emirates - because they are interested in closer cooperation with Israel - nudging the Palestinians toward being more accommodating and compromising in their positions on the peace process.
Turning to the situation in the north, Netanyahu said that the operation to uncover and destroy Hezbollah attack tunnels has deprived the organization of a central component in a future surprise war against Israel.
"They invested in this as an opening campaign" in a future war, Netanyahu said, "and we destroyed it."

Netanyahu Asked Trump for Gradual Withdrawal of US Soldiers From Syria
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu asked US President Donald Trump during a recent phone call to only slowly withdraw US servicemembers from Syria over an extended period of time.
The big ask was made during a December 20 phone conversation between the two world leaders, an unidentified Israeli official told reporters traveling with Netanyahu to Brazil on Monday. Netanyahu was heading to the South American country for the inauguration of Brazilian President-elect Jair Bolsonaro.
"The prime minister thinks that the US withdrawal from Syria presents an opportunity," Ynet News reported the official saying. "So far, the Iranian presence on the ground [in Syria] has not changed since the American decision."
According to Axios, the Israeli official later noted that Israel would keep striking within Syrian territory. "We are going to continue the airstrikes against Iranian targets in Syria regardless of the US policy. We have shown this already, and it is a message to the Iranians that we are not going to back down," the source reportedly said.
The unidentified individual also reportedly told journalists that Bolsonaro is interested in purchasing attack drones from Israel and that the two leaders are making headway in talks to allow direct flights between Israel and Brazil over Africa, Bloomberg reported.
Netanyahu is expected to speak with US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on Tuesday regarding US withdrawal from war-torn Syria, before engaging in a similar discussion with US National Security Adviser John Bolton on Sunday and Monday.
Trump announced earlier this month that US troops would be withdrawn from Syria, a move that was quickly met with criticism from US lawmakers, including Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC), who referred to the move as an "Obama-like mistake."
Since his initial announcement, POTUS has stayed firm to his vows, taking to Twitter on Monday to inform his millions of followers that the removal of US soldiers from Syria fulfilled his campaign promises. In his six-part Twitter message, 45 went on to defend his decision, stressing that the transition would be carried out "slowly... while at the same time fighting ISIS [Daesh] remnants."

The security detail of Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit has been boosted in recent weeks, Israeli television reported Friday, as he weighs whether to indict Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in a series of corruption probes.
The decision to provide Mandelblit with additional security was made after an assessment by the Israel Police and Justice Ministry in light of intelligence information they possessed, Channel 10 news said.
It did not detail the intelligence or if there were specific threats.
Mandelblit was first given a bodyguard two years ago, according to the network, due to weekly protests by left-wing demonstrators outside his home calling for him to press charges against Netanyahu.

Brazil moving its embassy to Jerusalem matter of 'when, not if' - Israel's prime minister
RIO DE JANEIRO (Reuters) - Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Sunday that Brazil's President-elect Jair Bolsonaro told him that it was a matter of "when, not if" he moves his country's embassy in Israel to Jerusalem from Tel Aviv.
The far-right Bolsonaro, who takes office on Tuesday and is hosting Netanyahu and the leaders of other countries for his inauguration, has said he would like to follow the lead of U.S. President Donald Trump and move the embassy.
But he has come under intense pressure from Brazil's powerful agriculture sector not to do so, as it could hurt Brazilian exports to Arab nations.
Such a move by Bolsonaro would be a sharp shift in Brazilian foreign policy, which has traditionally backed a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
The Arab League had told Bolsonaro that moving the embassy to Jerusalem would be a setback for relations with Arab countries, according to a letter seen by Reuters earlier in December.
"Bolsonaro told me it was "when, not if" he moves the embassy to Jerusalem," Netanyahu said on Sunday during a meeting with leaders of Brazil's Jewish community in Rio de Janeiro.
"We attach enormous importance to Brazil, and Brazil in the context of Latin America," he added. "This heralds a historic change."
Netanyahu, who met with Bolsonaro on Friday, said that the Brazilian accepted his invitation to visit Israel, a trip that is likely to take place in March.
Netanyahu is the first Israeli prime minister to visit Brazil.
After he met the Israeli leader, Bolsonaro said that "we need good allies, good friends, good brothers, like Benjamin Netanyahu."

Netanyahu and Bolsonaro agreed to tighten Israeli-Brazilian relations in the areas of the economy, security, water irrigation systems and technology, among others.
Bolsonaro said that he is planning to visit Israel after Netanyahu's visit.

Netanyahu praises Israeli air force after reckless Christmas raid on Syria
Netanyahu commends Israeli air force after alleged airstrike.
Israeli PM and acting defense chief Benjamin Netanyahu has praised the capabilities of his air force a day after IDF jets endangered two civilian flights while carrying out Christmas Day strikes against 'Iranian targets' in Syria.
"We are standing steadfast on our red lines in Syria and everywhere else," Netanyahu told cadets at a graduation ceremony at Hatzerim Air Force Base, noting that the air force's unmatched potential allows them to reach areas "near and far, very far."
While singing the praises to the "special capabilities" of his country's airborne forces and arsenals that can destroy any target, Netanyahu did not directly comment on the latest strikes in Syria. He also failed to respond to the criticism of the Russian military which earlier had accused the Israeli air force of directly endangering two civilian flights over Damascus and the Lebanese capital Beirut during Tuesday night's raid.
On the evening of Christmas Day, six Israeli F-16 fighter jets used two civilian flights as cover to strike a logistics compound on the outskirts of Damascus from Lebanese airspace, the Russian Defense Ministry said Wednesday. Thus, during the assault, the Syrian military was forced to restrict the use of air defense systems and radio jamming capabilities to avert a possible tragedy. Despite that advantage, only two of the sixteen Israeli-launched laser-guided bombs reached their targets, wounding three people, while the rest were intercepted.
While a potential tragedy involving civilian jets was averted on Tuesday, similar decoy tactics by Israel already led to horrific consequences back in September, when Syrian air defense units struck a Russian Il-20 plane, killing all 15 crew on board. At the time of the disaster, Israel's F-16s were using the surveillance plane as cover during their raid against alleged 'Iranian targets' in Syria.
Yet, despite a record of reckless actions, Netanyahu remains committed to fighting the "Iranian military entrenchment in Syria," by countering the threat "vigorously and continuously," even through the holiday season.

Russia's Ministry of Defence claimed on Wednesday that Israeli missile strikes near Damascus the previous day had directly threatened two civilian flights, saying the actions were "a gross violation of the sovereignty of Syria".
"The provocative actions of the Israeli air force… directly threatened two airliners," ministry spokesman Igor Konashenkov said in a statement.
Konashenkov said the attack came from over Lebanese territory and occured as "two airliners, not from Russia, were preparing to land at the airports of Beirut and Damascus".
He said restrictions were imposed on the use of Syrian government forces' air defence systems "to prevent a tragedy". One of the planes was redirected to a Russian airbase within Syria.
Syrian air defences had destroyed 14 of 16 Israeli missiles launched against unspecified targets near Damascus on Tuesday, the spokesman said.
Without directly mentioning the air strikes, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Wednesday said: "We are standing steadfast on our red lines in Syria and everywhere else."
Late on Wednesday, an Israeli security official told AP news agency that Israel carried out an overnight airstrike in Syria, saying a series of Iranian targets were hit.
The official said the airstrike hit Iranian storage and logistic targets being used to transfer weapons to Lebanese group Hezbollah. Israel also took out a Syrian anti-aircraft battery near Damascus that fired at the Israeli warplanes, the official said.
According to Syrian news agency SANA, Israeli aircraft struck an arms depot west of the capital from Lebanese airspace.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, facing a collapse of his coalition and looming legal problems, on Monday announced the dissolution of Israel's current parliament, with elections set for April 9.
Under Israeli law, elections would ordinarily have been held by November 2019, when Netanyahu's current four-year term is to end. Early elections, however, had appeared likely ever since Netanyahu's coalition was left hanging by a parliamentary majority of a single vote following last month's resignation by Defense Minister Avigdor Lieberman.
Netanyahu, who remains by far the most popular party leader in Israel's rambunctious multiparty polity, faces several steep challenges in the coming months.
The highest hurdle may be his own legal predicament. He appears sure to be indicted following police and state attorney recommendations that he be prosecuted on several corruption charges.
Avichai Mandelblit, the Netanyahu-appointed attorney general, whose decision is anticipated in the coming months, recently said he had not yet determined whether a sitting prime minister could stay in office while indicted. This is a situation that has not yet presented itself in Israel, where both a president and a prime minister have resigned when facing almost certain indictment.
Both later served jail sentences.
Netanyahu, who has tried to delay elections, was forced to accept the inevitable when he failed to muster the votes necessary to pass a controversial new law on drafting Orthodox Jewish seminary students into the army.
Netanyahu's ultra-Orthodox coalition members opposed the law, which would have strengthened current legislation forcing religious young men to participate in the nation's otherwise universal draft of Jewish 18-year-olds. They have long received exemptions so long as they were studying the Torah in the seminaries, known as yeshivas. There was broad popular support for the measure, but two opposition parties that had originally indicated support for the bill withdrew on Monday.
Speaking to his fellow Likud party activists at a hastily arranged gathering at the Knesset, Israel's parliament, Netanyahu foresaw victory in the upcoming elections and stated that his current coalition - the most right-wing in Israeli history and one of the most volatile - will serve as "the seed" for his next government.
Netanyahu made no mention of his upcoming legal woes and ignored the instability in the financial markets that followed President Trump's unforeseen decision to withdraw American troops from Syria, where they supported Israel's efforts to repel Iranian entrenchment. Rather, he described "four full years of achievements."
He praised his government's achievement as "a growing power, with flourishing diplomatic ties" with nations including India, Australia and Brazil, and extolled an alliance "with the United States that has never been stronger, with the historic decision made by President Trump to recognize Jerusalem as Israel's capital and move the embassy to Jerusalem."
"Israel has the eighth most powerful military on earth," he told his followers. "It is hard to believe, Israel is not a large country, but serious institutions rank us that high."

Netanyahu's Gift to Settler Movement After Snap Election Called: 2,000 New Homes
Authorities in Israel have advanced plans to have nearly 2,200 settlement homes illegally constructed in the occupied West Bank.
A committee within Israel's Defense Ministry charged with handling such projects approved the plans on Tuesday and Wednesday.
A total of 2,191 settlement homes were advanced this week, with 1,038 clearing their final hurdle in the approval process before construction can begin. The remaining homes are still being processed.
Israeli settlements in the West Bank are considered illegal under international law. Members of the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement seek to pressure international governments and companies into dropping business with entities that profit off of illegal Israeli settlements.
Last week, the Israeli government aided a law firm linked to Israel's Mossad intelligence agency to pressure a US-based fundraising platform to ban BDS from using its services, Sputnik News reported.
Airbnb, a home rental platform based in the US, also decided recently to ban home rentals in the West Bank, a move which the company has emphasized was not meant as an endorsement of BDS. Illegally occupied settlements in the Golan Heights and elsewhere, however, remain unaffected.
Settlements are a major political issue in Israel, favored by Israel's ruling right wing. What the decision means for Israel's snap elections, announced on Monday, is unclear. Currently, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu also occupies the positions of Foreign Minister, Defense Minister, Immigration Minister and Health Minister and is also the subject of multiple corruption investigations.
Netanyahu met with settlement leaders on Wednesday, reportedly saying of the elections: "We'll see an attempt by the left-wing to overthrow our rule with the help of the media and others."
"They can't succeed, because if they do - that will pose a clear danger to the settlement movement," Netanyahu added.
Israel captured large swathes of Palestinian territory in the 1967 war and continues to illegally occupy East Jerusalem, Syria's Golan Heights, and the West Bank, according to multiple United Nations resolutions.
In 2014, then-Housing Minister Uri Ariel said that 400,000 Israelis have settled in the West Bank and an additional 350,000 have moved into East Jerusalem. According to a 2011 report by the BBC, an estimated 20,000 Israeli settlers live in the Golan Heights, although it isn't clear how that number has been affected by the Syrian civil war breaking out that same year.

Israeli Parl't Votes For Self-Dissolution, Sets Snap Election For April 9
This comes after the Knesset, Israel's unicameral parliament, held a session on Wednesday devoted to a bill on self-dissolution as well as the snap general election, called by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's coalition government.
During the session, the Israeli parliament voted for self-dissolution and set the snap election date for April 9, 2019.
After the vote, the Knesset lawmakers are expected to go on "pre-election holidays," while the government will continue to work until a new one is formed following the April 9 election.
Current polls predict a victory for the right-wing camp and its leader Benjamin Netanyahu.
On Monday, a representative of Likud party told Sputnik that Israel will hold a general election on 9 April adding that the current Knesset convocation would be dissolved by that time.
The vote came after Defence Minister Avigdor Lieberman resigned on November 14 over Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's push for a ceasefire with Hamas militants, which wrapped up the latest uptick in violence across the Gaza border. Lieberman, who accused the PM of "surrendering to Hamas terror", also said that his Yisrael Beitenu (Israel Our Home) Party, which at the time held five seats in the 120-seat Knesset, would leave the coalition.
Liberman's resignation has not deprived Netanyahu of a majority in parliament, but reduced the ruling coalition to 61 seats - leaving it with just a one-seat majority. Netanyahu's coalition now consists of his own Likud Party, and others, such as United Torah Judaism, Kulanu, and Shas.

Netanyahu vows to keep hitting Iran in Syria: 'We stand firmly on our red lines'
Prime minister says US military pullout from northern neighbor will not alter Israel's policy of preventing Iranian military from entrenchment in Syrian territory
Brushing aside Russian criticism of a reported Israeli airstrike in Syria overnight, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Wednesday doubled down on Israel's policy of attacking Iranian-linked targets in Syria.
"We will not abide an Iranian entrenchment in Syria," Netanyahu, who is also the defense minister, said at a graduation ceremony for fresh Israeli Air Force pilots at the Hatzerim air base in the south.
"We are taking action against it aggressively and powerfully, including in these very days," he said.
US President Donald Trump's "decision to pullout American soldiers from Syria does not change our policy," Netanyahu said. "We stand firmly on our red lines in Syria and everywhere else."
The Israeli air force's capabilities are unmatched, and can reach arenas "near and far, very far," he added.
US President Donald Trump surprised the world and many of his own officials by announcing last week that he would pull all 2,000 US soldiers in Syria out of the warn-torn country. Israel is concerned that Iran will take advantage of the military vacuum to expand its entrenchment in Syria.
Israel Air Force commander Amikam Norkin told the pilot course graduates that ongoing air force action, "through extraordinary cooperation with the intelligence branch," has "prevented the setting up of Iranian military capability in the northern sector. It is not the end of the story and if needed we will act with the same determination."

Turkey Doesn't Need Permission from Israel or Anyone to Fight Terror - Ankara
The Turkish government spokesperson made the statement following a Twitter outburst from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who called Turkish President Erdogan "the occupier of northern Cyprus" and accused his forces of massacring "women and children in Kurdish villages."
Turkish Presidential Spokesman Ibrahim Kalin has announced that Ankara intends to continue its fight against terrorism without seeking consent from other countries, Hurriyet Daily News reported on Tuesday.
"It is out of the question for Turkey to get permission or consent from Israel or any other country [to fight terror]," he told journalists after a cabinet meeting.
Earlier, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu slammed Erdogan on Twitter, calling him "the occupier of northern Cyprus, whose army massacres women and children in Kurdish villages, inside and outside Turkey", and insisted that the Turkish president "should not preach to Israel".
In response, Erdogan dubbed Netanyahu is "the voice of tyrants" and the head of "state terror".
Meanwhile, Kalin also claimed that US President Donald Trump decided to withdraw American troops from Syria after Erdogan told him "loud and clear" that Washington and Ankara don't need the help of Kurdish YPG/SDF forces to fight Daesh*.
"There is no step back, weakness, halt, or slowdown in the fight against Daesh terror group," Kalin said after declaring that Turkey will maintain its military presence in the Syrian province of Idlib in order to ensure "security and stability in the region".
Erdogan and Netanyahu have previously engaged in verbal clashes with each other on numerous occasions.
The row between the Turkish and Israeli leaders flared following the recent escalation of tensions on the Israel-Gaza border, which claimed the lives of four Palestinians on Friday.
In December, Erdogan announced that Turkish forces were prepared to kick off an offensive on the east bank of the Euphrates River against Kurdish formations as soon as possible.
Later, Foreign Minister Cavusoglu said that the operation in northern Syria would be postponed until the US troops completely withdraw from the area. At the same time, Erdogan's spokesman said that Ankara is going to coordinate its anti-Daesh campaign with Moscow

Netanyahu's coalition collapses; Israel heading to elections on April 9th
"With God's help, we will win," said Netanyahu, who vowed to form the same coalition after the election.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the parties in his coalition decided Monday to disperse the Knesset this week and initiate an early general election on April 9, 2019. Netanyahu boasted to his Likud faction that his coalition lasted four years and had key diplomatic, security and economic accomplishments. He said he could not initiate the election six weeks ago, when Avigdor Liberman resigned as Defense Minister and sparked a coalition crisis, because he wanted to first complete destroying tunnels on the Lebanese border in Operation Northern Shield.
"With God's help, we will win," said Netanyahu, who vowed to form the same coalition after the election. Leaders of coalition and opposition parties met with Knesset Speaker Yuli Edelstein summoned the party heads to formalize the process of dispersing the Knesset and come to an agreed-upon election date. Edelstein expressed pride in many of the laws the Knesset passed over its four years, specifically mentioning the Jewish Nation-State Law, but said he was disappointed in many lawmakers' conduct and "verbal violence." He expressed hope that the next Knesset will engage in more civil discourse.
Justice Minister Ayelet Shaked said her ministry will begin working on the bill to dissolve the Knesset, which is set to be brought to all three plenum votes on Wednesday. Following the announcement of an election, party leaders made statements declaring victory. Yesh Atid chairman Yair Lapid, Zionist Union leader Avi Gabbay, Yisrael Beytenu leader Avigdor Liberman all predicted that they would become prime minister in the election and the Joint List's Ayman Odeh said Israeli Arabs will come out to vote in droves. Former prime minister Ehud Barak called it "the most important election since the assassination of Yitzhak Rabin."
The early election was announced shortly after Yesh Atid leader Yair Lapid said he would vote against the Defense Ministry's bill to enlist haredim into the IDF. Netanyahu blamed Lapid's change of heart on the bill for it not being able to pass, calling it a contortion worthy of Harry Houdini. The Supreme Court said a haredi enlistment bill must be passed by January 15. Because the bill will not be passed by then, Netanyahu as defense minister would be breaking the law if he does not immediately enlist the haredi en masse, but he still could ignore the law.
The Likud could have still tried to pass the bill with the 61 MKs in the coalition, but the three MKs in the Agudat Yisrael party have said they would not vote for the bill if key changes are not made. Knowing that, coalition chairman David Amsalem instead tried to keep the bill in its current format and seek the support of the opposition Yesh Atid and Yisrael Beytenu parties who voted for it in its first reading.
But Yesh Atid leader Yair Lapid called a press conference Monday to announce that Yesh Atid would not support the bill, even though he his prior effusive support for it. Lapid alleged that he had proof the Likud had made "dirty deals" under the table with the haredim and Finance Ministry officials were working on them.
Asked by The Jerusalem Post whether he heard from Finance Ministry officials who worked with him when he was their minister, Lapid said: "You don't reveal your sources, and neither will I." Yisrael Beytenu said its MKs would still have voted for the bill in it current format but also wants alleged deals with the haredim investigated. Yisrael Beytenu leader Avigdor Liberman told his faction he would not enter the next government unless the bill is passed in its current format.

Iran To "Build A Force Of 100,000 Ground Troops" In Syria, Claims Israeli Defense Chief
Last week, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu pledged to intensify military action in Syria after the White House's order for all US troops to pullout out of the country - expected to be complete within months - and now Israel's outgoing defense chief, Gadi Eisenkot, has revealed more details of what's driving Israel's thinking.
Gen. Eisenkot, who is set to complete his four-year tenure next month, warned Iran will "build a force of 100,000 ground troops" as soon as the war is complete, noting this will happen "the day after" cessation of fighting. Israeli defense officials have long hyped the "Iran threat" across its border and have over the past years repeatedly warned its "red line" to act militarily would be "Iran entrenchment" in Syria.
The defense chief further claimed an Iranian "permanent military presence" in Syria has been endorsed by the elite Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps' Quds Force.
"The Iranian vision for Syria for the day after [the war]... was to build a force of 100,000 ground troops. There are already 20,000 fighters from Hezbollah, Shiite militias from Iraq, Afghanistan, and Pakistan, and thousands of advisers from Iran", Eisenkot said, according to the Times of Israel. He claimed further Iran is seeking to set up "combined ground, aerial, naval and intelligence capability" in order to build up a "line of military positions along the Golan [border]".
He described IDF efforts to roll back Iranian influence in the Syrian war "the large base of the iceberg, which was hidden from the Israeli public's eye". He continued in what's an important admission considering the mainstream media longtime claim that Israel has largely been on the sidelines in Syria: "We devoted significant resources, intelligence, aerial resources, and other mostly covert operations that average Israelis, even those living in the Golan, were unaware of over the years."
While painting a picture that the IDF was "independent" and alone in its fight to destroy "arms factories in Syria" that he said "combine Syrian infrastructure, Iranian money, and Hezbollah capabilities," he vowed in line with Netanyahu's recent comments that the army would continue to fight "the multi-dimensional threat of Iran."

'Head of state terror' v 'anti-Semitic dictator': Netanyahu and Erdogan trade insults
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan became locked in a heated war of words over the weekend, accusing each other of committing massacres against civilians.
In a tweet posted on Saturday, Benjamin Netanyahu referred to Erdogan as an "occupier of northern Cyprus," saying that the Turkish Army "massacres women and children in Kurdish villages."
The Turkish leader responded the next day, and he gave as good as he got. He branded the Israeli PM the "voice of the oppressors" who commits crimes against Palestinians.
"Netanyahu, you are cruel. You are the head of state terror," he said, as quoted by Gazete Duvar.
Israel has no right to accuse anyone without accounting for its own sins, crimes against humanity, massacres and destruction.
Erdogan's attack on the Israeli prime minister was followed up by several top Turkish officials, including Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu. He called Netanyahu "a cold-blooded killer" who is responsible for the "massacres of innocent Palestinians." Erdogan's spokesperson and chief adviser, Ibrahim Kalin, also demanded that Israel ends the "lawless occupation of Palestinian lands."
Meeting with a group of Christian IDF soldiers ahead of Christmas, Netanyahu threw additional verbal jabs at the Turkish leader, calling him an "anti-Semitic dictator" who is "obsessed with Israel."
But there has been an improvement: Erdogan used to attack me every two hours and now it is every six hours.
Turkey is becoming "more dictatorial day by day," the Israeli PM claimed.
Recep Tayyip Erdogan and Benjamin Netanyahu are known for their mutual resentment. The politicians have often traded insults in the past. The Turkish president regularly accuses Tel Aviv of mistreating Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank. He stepped up attacks against Israel after its parliament adopted a controversial 'nation-state' law this summer.
Meanwhile, Netanyahu and other Israeli officials have criticized Erdogan of supporting Hamas militants and Iran.

Israel headed to elections as Netanyahu's coalition dissolves parliament
DECEMBER 24, 2018
JERUSALEM - The coalition of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced Monday it was dissolving parliament and calling a general election as soon as April, after failing to garner the necessary support to pass controversial legislation aimed at drafting ultra-Orthodox Jews into the military.
Local media said national elections would most likely take place on April 9.
Netanyahu's coalition has been teetering on the edge since the Nov. 14 resignation of Defense Minister Avigdor Liberman, who stepped down over the government's handling of ongoing tensions with the Gaza Strip.
Since then, the government has limped along with a one-seat majority in the Knesset, or parliament. Each crisis looked set to bring down the government and take the country to an early election.
That seemed imminent after Liberman's resignation, as ultranationalist Education Minister Naftali Bennett threatened to withdraw his Jewish Home party from the government if he could not take over the defense portfolio. But Bennett was forced to backtrack after Netanyahu said he was determined to hold onto the important security post, as well as filling the roles of foreign minister, immigration minister and health minister.
A statement Monday from Netanyahu's ruling Likud party said "national and budgetary responsibilities" had pushed the leaders of the coalition parties to "dissolve the Knesset and go to new elections at the beginning of April after a four-year term."
But the decision appeared to be linked to an earlier announcement from Yair Lapid, head of the opposition Yesh Atid party and Netanyahu's main challenger, that his faction would not support legislation aimed at drafting ultra-Orthodox yeshiva students into the army.
While all Jewish Israelis are required to serve in the military at the age of 18, those who study the Torah in recognized yeshivas, or religious schools, have traditionally received an exemption. However, manpower shortages in recent years and growing demands for equality have forced the government to reevaluate the matter and craft new legislation that would exempt only the top religious students - a move that the ultra-Orthodox have resisted.
Drafting a law that would satisfy all members of Netanyahu's coalition has proved to be a source of tension over the past year, threatening to break apart the government.
From the outside, Lapid, who has pushed for new legislation, said the law did not go far enough and suggested that Netanyahu had "surrendered to the ultra-Orthodox."
Liberman, who Netanyahu's coalition had hoped would support the law despite his resignation last month, said the law in its current format had been "emptied of content" after agreements were reached between Likud and the ultra-Orthodox parties.

Turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Sunday said Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu must have got "confused" when he said Turkey had invaded Cyprus.
Speaking in Istanbul, Erdogan said "By accusing of invasion in Cyprus, the Israeli prime minister may have confused his language. Rather, he wanted to say that they are invading Palestine and murdering women and children."
"Netanyahu," he continued, "you are banging on the wrong door. Erdogan is the voice of the oppressed, you are the voice of the tyrants. Netanyahu, you are the tyrant. Turkey is fighting terrorists. Israeli slaughterers have no right to blame anyone if they do not give their own account first.
Cavusoglu's Tweet continued: 'Netanyahu is a cold-blooded killer of modern times, responsible for massacres of thousands of Palestinians, bombing children on beaches. Turkey will never stop exposing the truth.'

AJ is a gatekeeper and the PR department for the cabal. Like a drug dealer has to get busted so the public can find out how badass they were, the cabal and (((their))) psychopathic EGO needs to be scratched but they don't want to get busted to show off. So they control the OPPOSITION AJ.
1. So they use AJ to brag about all the EVIL shit they've done and are doing.They never thought she'd lose so weren't concerned about getting busted.
2. As a gatekeeper AJ keeps the awakened population away from curtain issues, Q, Israel/mossad, Leo Wanta etc...
3. Also what (((they))) use AJ for is to make the truth community out to be crackpot conspiracy theorists, look at his rants etc...
4. Once AJ got on shaky ground when exposed by Q, the cabal media assets came to the rescue by banning him, as pointed out by anon and eluded too by Q when your site is taken down they don't leave a convenient redirection message for users!
5. Look at how many people (((they))) have killed to keep (((their))) shit secret, yet AJ has been outing the cabal for decades and is still free to go out in public!!!!

Turkish Foreign Minister: Netanyahu Is "Cold-Blooded Killer Of Modern Times"
Public relations between Israel and Turkey have not been very friendly over the past few months.
On December 23, Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu took to Twitter to accuse Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of being responsible for the killing of thousands of Palestinians. He described Netanyahu as "a cold-blooded killer of modern times, responsible for massacres of thousands of innocent Palestinians, bombing children on beaches." Cavusoglu added that Ankara "will never stop exposing the truth."
On December 22, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan accused the Israeli state of opressing Palestinians.
"The Jews in Israel kick people laying on the ground. In fact, Jews don't kick men but also women and children when they fall in the ground. But as Muslims, we will confront these people if they have courage to deal with us and we'll teach them a lesson", Erdogan stressed.
The Israeli Prime Minister came up with own response.
Earlier, the Turkish president described Israel as "thuggery, violence and state terror" amid the Palestinians' Great March of Return and compared Israel's actions to the Nazi persecution of Jews.

Netanyahu: We Will Increase Efforts Against Iran in Syria After U.S. Withdrawal
The Times of Israel reports: Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowed Thursday that Israel would step up its fight against Iran's military presence in Syria, amid concerns that the US military's announced pullout from the war-torn country would limit the Jewish state's ability to operate there.
"We will continue to aggressively act against Iran's efforts to entrench in Syria," said Netanyahu, who also serves as Israel's foreign minister and defense minister. "We do not plan to reduce our efforts. We will increase them, and I know that we will do this with the full support and backing from the United States of America," he said, speaking at a trilateral summit in Beersheba with leaders from Greece and Cyprus.
Netanyahu also discussed the military's operation to locate and destroy cross-border attack tunnels that Israel says the Hezbollah terror group dug from southern Lebanon.

Israel Prepares for Mass Immigration of French Jews
TEL AVIV - Israel is launching a government-wide initiative to encourage as many as 200,000 French Jews to immigrate to Israel, Diaspora Affairs Minister Naftali Bennett announced Wednesday.
Concerned about their future in France in light of a series of Islamic terrorist attacks in recent years, as well as a rise in anti-Semitic incidents in general, French Jews are increasingly investigating the idea of resettlement in Israel. Data shows that 43% of French Jewry, or some 200,000 people, have expressed interest in making aliya, or immigrating to the Jewish state.
"Every Jew in France should know, as should Jews anywhere in the world, the State of Israel awaits them with open arms," Bennett said in statement.
"Immigration to Israel does not end on the day of arrival, that is just the beginning," Bennett continued. "The State should assist in absorption in all areas - language, education, housing, employment and more. We will do it."
The proposal for the project, led by Bennett and National Economic Council Chairman Avi Simhon, will be presented to Israel's Cabinet on Sunday. Representatives present will be from the Prime Minister's Office, the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Labor, Welfare and Social Services, the Ministry of Housing and Infrastructure, Ministry of Immigration and Absorption, the Ministry of Economy, and the Ministry of Diaspora Affairs.
The final proposal will be drafted within two months and presented to the Ministerial Committee for Absorption and Immigration under Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who is currently serving as minister of absorption. The committee also includes Finance Minister Moshe Kahlon, Environmental Protection Minister Ze'ev Elkin, Tourism Minister Yariv Levin, Simhon and the prime minister's chief of staff Yoav Horowitz.
"These are ethical people, Zionists, lovers of the Jewish people and the Land of Israel, and it is our moral obligation to help them," Bennett said of French Jews last week.
In 2015, following a spate of terror attacks in which five Jews were killed, Netanyahu said in a televised speech that "the State of Israel is your home."
"All Jews who want to immigrate to Israel will be welcomed here warmly and with open arms," he added.

State prosecutor hands indictment recommendations against PM to attorney general
Shai Nitzan reportedly concludes enough evidence to charge Netanyahu for bribery in 3 separate cases; AG Mandelblit to pore over 800-page report in preparation for final decision
The State Prosecution has completed its work on the three criminal cases against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the attorney general's office will begin deliberations over the cases in the coming days, State Prosecutor Shai Nitzan said Wednesday, with his conclusions reportedly pointing to bribery charges in each.
The State Prosecution considers one of the probes, known as Case 4000, to constitute "a clear case of bribery," while Cases 1000 and 2000 are seen as "bribery lite," Hadashot TV news reported.
It said the attorney general's office aims to reach a decision on whether to press charges in the next few months, and certainly "well before Passover" in mid-April.
It is up to Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit to decide whether to indict the premier.
The Hadashot TV report described Case 4000 as the gravest of the cases. Referring to what it said was a draft recommendation prepared by the State Prosecution, it said Case 4000 was regarded as a clear case of bribery, as well as fraud and other offenses.
"We have made and will continue to make every effort to finish the work as soon as possible," Nitzan told the Globes financial conference in Tel Aviv.
"In recent weeks I have been provided a draft recommendation by the [State Prosecution's] Tax and Finance Department, after careful study of the investigation material," Nitzan said.
"In recent months I have held exhaustive meetings with the prosecution and clarified various judicial and evidence-related questions," he said. "With the completion of the prosecution's work, discussions will begin in the coming days with the attorney general."
He said the full probe and recommendations portfolio stretched across over 800 pages.
Police have recommended indicting Netanyahu for bribery in Cases 1000, 2000, and 4000. Last month it was reported that Tax and Finance Department head Liat Ben Ari, after reviewing police evidence, had made the same recommendation on Cases 1000 and 2000, though there was no word on her position in Case 4000, the last investigation to have been completed by police.

Israel developing 'offensive missiles' that can reach 'anywhere' in the Middle East - Netanyahu
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said that the country is developing "offensive missiles" cable of hitting anywhere across the region. Apart from that, Tel Aviv eyes launching "micro-satellites" into space.
The Prime Minister gave a speech on the country's advancement in the military and aerospace technologies on Monday, while visiting Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI). The company is actively developing "offensive" missiles, Netanyahu said, as well as weaponry "with special capabilities that no other country has".
The missiles "can reach anywhere in the area and any target. This is the offensive power of Israel which is very important for us in all sectors," he stated.
Apart from that, the country seeks to expand its foothold in space through launching "micro satellites," Netanyahu said, while holding a mock-up of such a device. "Space is a huge sphere that the State of Israel is entering."
The statement from the Israeli PM comes as the situation in the whole Middle East region remains tense. Over the past year, Israel has repeatedly attacked neighboring Syria, citing the alleged presence of pro-Iran militias and Iranian troops there. Syria, in turn, has repeatedly denounced such attacks as open aggression against the country.
One such attack resulted in the accidental downing of a Russian surveillance plane and the loss of its crew. Moscow squarely pinned the blame for the incident on Israel and its military endeavors in the neighboring country. Russia has since supplied the Syrian government with modern S-300 anti-aircraft systems.

On December 16, the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) claimed that they had found a 4th 'Hezbollah attack tunel' on the border between Israel and Lebanon in the framework of Operation Northern Shield.
No additional details were provided by the IDF.
Furthermore, it's especially interesting that the IDF provides no details on the location of the alleged tunels. The only location, which was provided, was the location of the very first 'Hezbollah' tunel, which was allegedly found.
This situation allows some sources to speculate that the IDF is just using these mysterious attack tunels as a part of the wider PR campaign to draw the public's attention from bribery accusations against Israeli Prime Minister, Defense Minister and minister of a few more things Benjamin Netanyahu.

Netanyahu's scandal-ridden son defends Facebook post suggesting all Muslims should leave Israel
The son of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has defended a controversial Facebook post in which he implied that all Muslims should leave the Jewish state. The initial post prompted backlash on social media.
"There will not be peace here until: 1. All the Jews leave the land of Israel. 2. All the Muslims leave the land of Israel. I hope it's the second," Yair Netanyahu wrote on Facebook on Thursday.
He went on to state that Iceland and Japan don't have terror attacks because "there is no Muslim population there."
The 27-year-old defended his thoughts on Saturday, asking why the same people who have been calling to "evacuate the settlers and establish a Palestinian state free of Jews" were angered by his words.
Many on social media were indeed unimpressed with the younger Netanyahu's Facebook posts, with one person instead stating that he should be the one to leave Israel.

Matthew 24:15-21
15 "So when you see standing in the holy place 'the abomination that causes desolation,'[a] spoken of through the prophet Daniel-let the reader understand- 16 then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains. 17 Let no one on the housetop go down to take anything out of the house. 18 Let no one in the field go back to get their cloak. 19 How dreadful it will be in those days for pregnant women and nursing mothers! 20 Pray that your flight will not take place in winter or on the Sabbath. 21 For then there will be great distress, unequaled from the beginning of the world until now-and never to be equaled again.

Zionist regime's disturbed dreams will never come true: Iran
The Iranian Foreign Ministry's spokesman has described the Zionist regime of Israel as the main cause of instability in the region, noting that its bad dreams about Iran will never come true.
Bahram Qassemi made the remarks on Thursday in reaction to earlier statements by the Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu who had noted on Wednesday that Israel was prepared to launch attacks inside Iran if its survival was at stake.
"Our red line is our survival," Netanyahu was quoted by AFP as saying at a meeting with foreign media where he was asked what his "red line" was for attacking Iranian territory, instead of Iran's allies in Syria and Lebanon.
In reaction to Netanyahu's ranting, Qassemi said, "Although the corrupt and aggressive Zionist regime, which is symbol of delusions, grudge and hatred, will never dare to take such a step, but uttering such outrageous and shameful words out of ignorance or delusion by the prime minister of an aggressive regime, knowingly or unknowingly, amounts to threatening a big and historical country with military action, which will be certainly followed up on in legal and international forums and institutions."
The Iranian official noted that although the Zionist regime has been the main disturber of stability and security during past decades, but "expresses false concern about stability in the region in a ridiculous way and with no shame."

Netanyahu: Israel Keeps the World Safe from Terrorism
JERUSALEM - Israel is keeping the world safe from terrorism, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Wednesday, pointing to "40 major terrorist attacks" that the Jewish state recently thwarted on "almost all continents."
Addressing a group of reporters at an annual event held by the Government Press Office in Jerusalem, Netanyahu said Israel had provided "unmatched intelligence" that prevented about "40 major terrorist attacks that have threatened the entire world."
"Israel is helping keep the world safe from terrorism," the prime minister said.
He pointed to a foiled plot by the Islamic State terrorist group in February of last year to blow up a plane en route to Sydney from Abu Dhabi. Intelligence gathered by the IDF's elite Unit 8200 was provided to Australian authorities who then stopped the attack.
Netanyahu continued by outlining Israel's efforts in combating the largest state sponsor of terror, Iran.
"Israel is a world force in combating terrorism, the Arabs get it," he said. "The Arab countries understand exactly that Israel is not their enemy, but their indispensable partner" against extremists.
The prime minister then presented a graph which he said featured the outcome of a poll determining the percentage of people around the world who believe Iranian claims that it harbors no nuclear aspirations.
"Forty-three percent [of respondents in the Middle East] say they don't believe Iran is stopping its military capabilities and mass destruction capabilities, its nuclear weapons," Netanyahu said.
He also said Israel is in "the process of rolling back Iran's aggression" and its plan to acquire nuclear weapons. Doing so, he added, has also enabled a thawing of relations with Arab states hostile to Iran.
His comments came amid reports that he is working to formalize ties with Saudi Arabia ahead of Israel's 2019 elections.
Netanyahu also said the IDF is "the only military in the world directly engaging Iranian forces," referencing strikes against Iranian militias and proxies such as Hezbollah in neighboring Syria.
Israel's efforts in preventing Iran from entrenching itself militarily in Syria, Netanyahu said, will stop the Islamic Republic from establishing a foothold on a large, continuous swath of territory in the region.
He then described the recently exposed attack tunnels excavated by Hezbollah as "a clear act of aggression."
Last week, Israel launched "Operation Northern Shield" to detect and destroy cross-border subterranean tunnels that the IDF said Hezbollah was planning to use to infiltrate the Jewish state and launch attacks.
"I hope, I believe Hezbollah will not make the terrible mistake of trying to attack Israel or trying to interfere with our legitimate actions in trying to neutralize these tunnels. If they will, they will suffer much pain and quickly," Netanyahu said. "I think they're smart enough not to try us."
Netanyahu slammed the Lebanese government for failing to "protest" Hezbollah's actions. "We do hold them accountable for any aggression that is being perpetrated from their territory," he stated.
Netanyahu also warned Tehran that Israel would be prepared to strike on Iranian soil if it meant ensuring the Jewish state's survival.
"Our red line is our survival," he said.
"We do what is necessary to protect the State of Israel against the Iranian regime that openly calls for the annihilation of the Jewish state," Netanyahu stated. "I'm not ruling out doing anything that we need to do to defend ourselves."

Netanyahu: Israel 'won't rule out' military action in Iran
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said yesterday that Israel would not rule out undertaking military action inside Iran.
Addressing a gathering of foreign media yesterday, Netanyahu was asked what his "red line" would be for attacking Iranian territory, rather than Iranian proxies alleged to be operating in Syria and Lebanon, the Times of Israel reported. Netanyahu replied:
"Our red line is our survival. I'm not ruling out doing anything that we need to do to defend ourselves - we do what is necessary to protect the state of Israel against the Iranian regime, which openly calls for the annihilation of the Jewish state."
"For the moment, Israel is the only military in the world that is directly engaging Iranian forces," Netanyahu continued, referring to Israel's repeated use of air strikes against what it claims are Iranian positions in Syria. Despite officially declaring a non-intervention policy in the now seven-year-old Syrian civil war, Israel has continually struck targets on Syrian soil, with some strikes allegedly undertaken at the behest of the US. Israel is also known to have armed and funded opposition groups with the aim of keeping Iranian-backed forces away from the Golan Heights, which it has occupied since the Six Day War of 1967.

David Keyes, an adviser to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, has tendered his resignation following allegations of sexual assault. Netanyahu's spokesman with the foreign press resigned nearly three months after taking a leave of absence when he was accused of sexual assault by at least a dozen women, including now-New York State Senator Julia Salazar. In a statement Wednesday, Keyes said he "decided to pursue new opportunities in the private sector," and denied the allegations, calling them "deeply misleading and many of them are categorically false." Israel's Civil Service Commission closed an investigation into the allegations against Keyes last month, but did not take any disciplinary action against him. In a separate statement, Netanyahu thanked Keyes "for his great contribution to Israel's information effort."

Netanyahu: Israel will build West Bank settlements despite ICC pressure
Israel is facing a fierce campaign over existing settlements because of efforts against it at the International Criminal Court, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told Likud politicians on Monday, in response to criticism for not doing enough to advance settler activity in the West Bank.
Netanyahu said he is proceeding carefully in order to make sure everything is legal, because of the "aggressive campaign against settlements that were already built." His spokesman confirmed that this smear campaign is coming straight from the ICC.
The Prime Minister spoke in the closed section of the Likud faction regarding construction in Judea and Samaria.
Last week, ICC Prosecutor Fatou Bensouda said that she was close to a decision on whether to open a full-fledged criminal probe against Israel and Hamas for alleged war crimes. Her probe also includes West Bank settlement activity.
The government will continue building new homes in settlements despite pressure not to, Netanyahu assured the politicians.
"I am a prime minister who stood up to two very very difficult US presidents for 12 years. We built and we built and we built," Netanyahu said, referring to Bill Clinton and Barack Obama. "There is no and there will be no government that is as successful in repelling these pressures and maneuvering around them on the matter of settlements."
"We built and we built and we built," he repeated, "with wisdom and great persistence. What you think is simple is much more complex, but we are navigating it wisely in order to find the way, and when we find it, we will build and we will have the court's backing."
If he is unable to get support from the court, Netanyahu added that things might change, but in the meantime he is trying make sure it doesn't face opposition in court.
Netanyahu's comments came hours after right wing politicians renewed their push to legalize all West Bank outposts in the aftermath of Sunday night's terror attack that injured seven outside of the Ofra settlement, including a 21-year-old pregnant woman.
Bayit Yehudi MK Bezalel Smotrich plans to submit a bill to the Ministerial Legislative Committee for debate this Sunday that will set a two-year timetable to authorize those fledgling communities - which currently have an illegal status - as either new settlements or neighborhoods of existing ones.
He spoke of the bill during a meeting of the Knesset Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee that had been scheduled prior to the attack.
But right wing politicians at the meeting, including settler leaders, linked the attack to their legislative drive to legalize settler homes.

IDF Delegation Goes To Moscow To Brief Russian Military On 'Operation Northern Shield And Other Operational Issues'
On December 11th, a delegation of IDF officers will visit Moscow to hoold a meeting with the Russian side, the Israeli Defense Forces announced over Twitter on December 10th.
The Israeli delegation is to be led by the Head of the Operations Directorate, Major General Aharon Haliva and will brief the Russian side on Operation Northern Shield and other operational issues.
Following a phone conversation on December 8th, with Russian President Vladimir Putin, Israeli Prime Minister, as well as Health, Foreign and Defense Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that the countries' two militaries may meet in the following days to discuss cooperation in Syria.
"I talked to Russian President Vladimir Putin yesterday. We agreed that the delegations of Russian and Israeli armies on coordination on Syria will meet as soon as possible. I hope this will be in the coming days, most likely in Moscow. And our meeting with President Putin will be held later," Netanyahu said, according to his press service.
"This [phone conversation] was a follow-up to the talks in Paris, which were very crucial for ensuring the continuing cooperation, which the Russian Army and the Israeli Defense Forces have maintained for several years," Netanyahu further said. The "talks in Paris" were a brief meeting between the two leaders on November 11th, on the Centenary of the World War I Armistice.
Israel launched the Northern Shield operation near the border with Lebanon on December 4th to spot and destroy tunnels dug by Hezbollah militants into Israel's territory. It also trained Engineering Corps specialists in Europe in 2017, in preparation of the operation.
The Russian President in a statement "stressed the importance of ensuring stability in the region in strict accordance with Resolution 1701 of the UN Security Council," referring to the 2006 UN Security Council resolution calling for Hezbollah to withdraw from southern Lebanon following the Second Lebanon War.
On December 7th, the Israeli Intelligence and Transport Minister Israel Katz, said that IDF may have to go into southern Lebanon to deal with the tunnels.
Israel also said that it would continue fighting against Iran's expanding influence in the Middle East and in Syria in particular.
The relations between Russia and Israel took a downturn when on September 17th a Russian IL-20 was downed by Syrian S-200 missile defense systems, which were targeting four Israeli F-16 fighter jets attacking facilities in Latakia.
Israel denied responsibility. Vladimir Putin initially said that the incident was the result of a "chain of tragic accidental circumstances."
However, later Russian Defense Ministry Spokesman Major General Igor Konashenkov said that the Israeli Air Force and those who made the decision to use the Il-20 aircraft as cover are solely to blame for its crash. Russian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Igor Konashenko also placed the entire responsibility for the downing of the Russian plane on Israel's Air Forces and those who were behind the decision to use the Russian plane as a shield.
Following the incident, Russia supplied S-300 missile defense systems to Damascus in a move which Israel opposed. Moscow said the supply of the advanced anti-aircraft system was necessary in order to prevent further threats to Russian troops and to cool off "hot heads."
Israel appears to be attempting to undertake steps to improve relations with Russia. However, in order to do so there will be a need for concessions, which Netanyahu's, almost one-man, government may not be ready to provide.

Israel Plans For Potential 'Coup' Amid Netanyahu Corruption And Fraud Case
For months, The Goldwater has been covering the corruption cases Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, his wife and son are involved in. I even suggested the possibility that Netanyahu might try to force an early election if things started to look bad. It appears that members of the Israeli Knesset had the same fear, as legislation is in the works that would limit presidential power in order to prevent a potential "coup" within Netanyahu's Likud party to oust Bibi.

So far, Netanyahu and family face multiple charges of corruption, bribery, breach of trust and fraud and has been shown to collude with members of the media to ensure positive media coverage of his administration.

Divided nations: UN migration pact sows discord as states turn away & face domestic tensions
An international agreement on how to deal with the global migration crisis is to be approved on Monday, but some are already calling it 'dead' as countries try to ditch the deal that prompted domestic political turmoil.
The United Nations Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration, slated to be approved in Morocco, will be the first such UN agreement to be inter-governmentally negotiated to cover all areas of international migration.
The pact, drafted in response to the 2015 refugee crisis, aims to set out a "a common understanding, shared responsibilities and unity of purpose regarding migration," laying out a vision in 23 objectives.
While it might seem that such a description would perhaps bring countries together, it appears to be doing just the opposite. Some nations have directly said they won't be part of it, while participating nations have seen protests from citizens.
The most recent pushback happened in Belgium on Sunday, when Prime Minister Charles Michel announced that his government was set to continue as a minority, after the center-right New Flemish Alliance (N-VA) quit his coalition because it disapproved of the accord.
US President Donald Trump's former adviser Steve Bannon even weighed in on the pact in Brussels, telling a gathering at the Flemish parliament that the pact was "dead even before it's been signed." He spoke at the request of the Flemish nationalist party Vlaams Belang, which has been a vocal opponent of the UN text.
Washington has been against the pact since the beginning, with US ambassador to the UN Nikki Haley stating in December 2017 that her country's immigration policies should be "always made by Americans and Americans alone."
Israel and Australia weren't initially against the pact, which was negotiated and agreed by global diplomats in July 2018. However, they pulled out last month, citing sovereignty concerns as their reason for the turnaround.
"We have a duty to protect our borders against illegal infiltrators," Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in a statement. "That's what we've done, and that's what we will continue to do."
Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison expressed a similar sentiment, stating that the pact could "undermine Australia's strong border protection laws and practices."

Israeli, Russian military experts may meet in Moscow in coming days - Netanyahu
TEL AVIV, December 9. /TASS/. Israeli and Russian experts may gather for another meeting to discuss coordination on Syria in the coming days in Moscow, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told a government meeting on Sunday.
"I talked to Russian President Vladimir Putin yesterday. We agreed that the delegations of Russian and Israeli armies on coordination on Syria will meet as soon as possible. I hope this will be in the coming days, most likely in Moscow. And our meeting with President Putin will be held later," Netanyahu said, according to his press service.
Putin and Netanyahu held a phone conversation on Saturday at the initiative of the Israeli side, the Kremlin press service said. The sides reached an agreement to "work on the next personal meeting of the two countries' leaders."
"This [phone conversation] was a follow-up to the talks in Paris, which were very crucial for ensuring the continuing cooperation, which the Russian Army and the Israeli Defense Forces have maintained for several years," Netanyahu said on Sunday.
The two leaders had a brief conversation in Paris on November 11 on the sidelines of the events marking the 100th anniversary of the World War I Armistice.
Netanyahu said he told the Russian leader on Saturday that the Jewish state would continue its policy to prevent the creation of Iran's military bases in Syria and go on with its steps against the handover of high-precision weapons to Lebanon's Hezbollah movement and its tunnels crossing into Israel.
On Tuesday, Israel's Defense Forces launched Operation Northern Shield to expose and destroy tunnels, built by the Lebanese Shiite militant group Hezbollah, crossing into Israel.
On September 17, Russia's Il-20 aircraft was accidently downed by Syrian air defenses over the Mediterranean Sea when it was returning to the Hmeymim airbase. Russian top brass said a missile from Syria's S-200 system downed the aircraft when it targeted four Israeli F-16 fighter jets, which attacked facilities in Latakia. All 15 Russian crew members were killed in the tragedy. The Israeli Air Force and those who made the decision to use the Il-20 aircraft as cover are solely to blame for its crash, Russian Defense Ministry Spokesman Major General Igor Konashenkov said.

The world condemns Israel
My opinion of the terrorist Benjamin Netanyahu is well known and I have expressed it several times in my articles. Today I will refer back to the UN and six resolutions against Israel that were supported by the international organisation's member states.
The most important resolution is related to Jerusalem and it rejects Israel's sovereignty over the Holy City by 148 votes to 11, with 14 abstentions.
There was another resolution on the conflict between Israel and the Palestinians. It was supported by 156 countries and opposed by eight with 12 abstentions. The resolution speaks of the Haram Al-Sharif and does not refer to the Temple Mount, as Israel calls it.
Israel dug under the Haram Al-Sharif and found neither a first, second or third temple. All of these are myths that are baseless in history and geography.
There was also a resolution calling on Israel to withdraw from the Golan Heights, which was backed by 99 countries with ten countries against and 66 abstentions.
The United States, Canada and Australia opposed these six resolutions, which are a part of about 20 resolutions against Israel adopted by the United Nations each year.
An Israeli UN representative attacked support for the resolutions against Israel and talked about the relationship of the Jews and Christians to the alleged Temple Mount. There is absolutely nothing related to the Jews in the Haram Al-Sharif, but the Christian presence is known and there is cooperation between the Christian churches in Jerusalem and the House of Fatwas against Israel's lies.
The European Union voted in favour of the two main resolutions on Jerusalem but requested a change of wording regarding the holy sites.
I reiterate, perhaps for the thousandth time, that Christian and Islamic connections were written about within less than ten years of the miracles of Jesus Christ and the revelation that the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), while the apparent Jewish links were written a thousand years later.

Colluding in war crimes: Britain's unreported military alliance with Israel
The reality of British military and intelligence support for Israel, and how this facilitates Israeli aggression, is being ignored in the British media
Britain's international trade secretary, Liam Fox, recently visited Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, pledging to increase trade and investment between the two countries, which already stands at a record $9bn.
While more than 230 Palestinians have been killed and thousands more injured by Israeli forces since March, London's ties with Tel Aviv are growing ever stronger.
Yet, I cannot find a single article in the British "mainstream" media noting the depth of supportive UK policies towards Israel. This media blackout is allowing Britain to continue backing Israeli aggression in the occupied territories with impunity.
Arms as usual
In 2016 and 2017, when Theresa May has been prime minister, the UK sold £402m worth of military goods to Israel, including components for combat aircraft, tanks, drones and military communications. As Prince William visited Israel in late June, the UK approved export licences for 34 types of military-related equipment.
These arms exports have been authorised while Palestinians risk their lives in the Great March of Return demonstrations on the perimeter fence between Gaza and Israel. Some 33 children were among those killed, alongside more than 24,000 Palestinians injured. Dozens of people have had limbs amputated, including 15 children, while the UN reports that 1,200 patients will require long-term limb reconstruction.

The United States is blocking Israel's sale of aging F-16 fighter jets to Croatia, a member of the American-led NATO security alliance
The deal, which was announced earlier this year, would see Israel sell a dozen US-manufactured F-16s from its fleet to Croatia for $500 million.
Quoting unnamed Israeli officials, Channel 10 news reported the Trump administration was angry Israel added advanced Israeli-made electronic systems to the F-16s as part of efforts to convince Croatia to buy the planes.
The officials told the network the US believes Israel unfairly profited through its actions, as the F16s are American-made and were not supposed to be sold to a third-party without its approval.
The report also quoted the officials saying Croatia is furious about the holdup of the sale and recently told Israel to work out the matter with the US. The officials said Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu raised the sale during his meeting with US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo in Brussels on Monday.
"I'm in favor but Defense Secretary Mattis is against [the sale] - its him who is blocking it," Channel 10 quotes Pompeo saying.
Netanyahu and his Croatian counterpart announced the agreement in January and Croatia's top defense body gave its OK two months later.

Israel Hacks Lebanese Communications And Sends Messages Warning From Hezbollah
At the late hours of December 6, the residents of the southern Lebanese town of Kfar Kela received on their mobile phones voice messages from Israel telling them to "stay away from Hezbollah," according to the Lebanese National News Agency (NNA).
The Israeli message, which was sent in Arabic, also called on the civilians to stay away from "Hezbollah's suspicious tunnels" and threatened to destroy the entire town.
In response to this cyber attack, Lebanon's Foreign Affairs and Expatriates Minister, Gebran Bassil, instructed the country's representative in the U.N., Amal Mudallali, to prepare a complaint on Israeli's hacking of the Lebanese communication network and on its threats to the civilians in Kafr Kela.
"A new violation by Israel, which don't care for the sanctity and privacy of the civilians and its direct threat to their lives, is added to its violations at sea, air and land," the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates said in an official statement.
Two days ago, the Israeli military claimed that its engineer units had uncovered a tunnel of Hezbollah that starts in Kafr Kela and penetrates 40 meters into Israel near northern town of Metulla. The discovery was a part of the ongoing Operation Northern Shield, which was launched on December 3.
Israel's threats to Kfar Kela's residents come in line with an earlier statement of Benjamin Netanyahu. The Israeli Prime Minister had told several foreign ambassadors that there is a "reasonable possibility" that the Israeli military may have to conduct operations inside Lebanon territory.

Official: Israel May Need to Enter Lebanon to Complete Anti-Hezbollah Operation
TEL AVIV - A senior Israeli official on Thursday said that Israel may need to take action inside Lebanon in order to achieve the goals of its ongoing operation on the northern border and destroy Hezbollah's attack tunnels.
"It is possible that we will be required to act inside Lebanon," the official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said according to a translation of his comments by the Times of Israel.
The cross-border tunnels "are wider and larger, and their goal is to transfer battalions, large forces, into Israeli territory, in order to come in and carry out a killing spree and kidnappings and to capture villages," he said.
He added that the decision to launch Operation Northern Shield earlier this week was out of concern that details of the operation would be leaked to Hezbollah.
"If Hezbollah knew that we knew [about the existence of the tunnels] then this would accelerate their kidnapping efforts, and we did not want to get to a situation where the kidnappers infiltrate into Israel and abduct a soldier or a civilian, and no one would know anything about it," the senior official said.
He also stated that the northern operation was one of the reasons the cabinet decided not to launch a major offensive against Hamas in Gaza following a barrage of 460 rockets in a 48-hour period last month, the official added. "There were other reasons too, but that was one of them," he said.
Also on Thursday, the Jerusalem Post quoted another official saying that Russia has deployed forces on the Syrian-Lebanese border with the aim of preventing the transfer of weapons and precision-guided technology to Hezbollah.
According to the unnamed diplomatic source, Russian and Israeli efforts inside Syria have seriously impacted Hezbollah's missile program, with the terror group only managing to convert a "few dozen" ordinary missiles into precision-guided ones.
Hezbollah had hoped by now to have converted thousands of missiles out of an estimated 140,000, the source said.
The comments came as Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu briefed a group of foreign diplomats on the northern border.
"Israel's expectation is unequivocal condemnation of Hezbollah, additional sanctions on Hezbollah, and condemnation and demand from the Lebanese government to stop granting permission to use its territory for these attacks on Israel," he told 25 senior ambassadors from around the world.
"We are denying our enemies the weapon of tunnels systematically and decisively," he said. "What we are doing with Hamas and with Hezbollah as well - we're doing everything we need to do."
"Anyone who attacks us - is taking his life into his hands," he added. "Hezbollah knows this and Hamas knows that too."
By the time the IDF's operation is over, Hezbollah's attack tunnels "will no longer exist," the prime minister vowed.
Netanyahu also pointed to the hegemonic and nuclear aspirations of Hezbollah's state-sponsor Iran.
"What we're facing is one big enemy. That enemy is called Iran," he said.
"Iran is trying to act on two levels: one is to develop a nuclear arsenal. We are dealing with that with other means including exposing the nuclear archive and the secret nuclear warehouse in Tehran. The second thing that Iran is doing is developing conventional weapons against us in their declared war to annihilate Israel. They declare so openly everyday."
The UN and EU have condemned Hezbollah's actions and expressed support for Operation Northern Shield.
"The building of tunnels from one country to another for military purposes is wholly unacceptable," Stephen Dujarric, the spokesperson for UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres said Wednesday.

Hezbollah Puts Forces On High Alert, Warns Israel From Any Attack On Lebanon
On December 5, Hassan Hoballah, a member of Lebanese Hezbollah's political bureau, warned Israel from launching any military operation inside Lebanon and stressed that the "resistance" will response to any such aggression.
"The days when Israel could simply attack Lebanon are over, even though the initiative to attack is in Israel's hands," the Iranian Press TV quoted Hoballah as saying.
Earlier in December, the Israeli military launched operation "Northern Shield" to destroy cross-border tunnels between Lebanon and Israel. By now, the operation has been conducted inside Israel territory only.
Hoballah revealed that Hezbollah fighters are on "a constant state of alert and surveillance, and are assessing the situation" in southern Lebanon. Hezbollah's official added that the group's action will depend on developments in the field.
Israel has been slowly and steadily working to set a foothold for a possible war on Hezbollah in Lebanon since the beginning of year. First, the Middle Eastern country stepped up its military operations in Syria against what it claims are arms shipments to Hezbollah.
Later, Israel's Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, revealed alleged missile sites of Hezbollah in the heart of the Lebanese capital, Beirut, during his speech at the UN General Assembly in New York. Netanyahu even vowed to act against any threat in Syria or in Lebanon.
Some experts say that Israel appears to be eager to wage a new war on Lebanon not only to send a message to Iran, but also to overcome its internal political crisis.

Israel's Op Against Hezbollah a Stunt to Distract From Bibi's Bribes
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) have launched an operation they say is aimed at neutralizing alleged tunnels dug from Lebanon into Israel by the Hezbollah organization.
The IDF announced the operation on Twitter, but used photographs of a Hezbollah branch in Iraq, not Lebanon, according to the flags held by the fighters.
The move comes just days after Israeli police on Sunday recommended for a third time that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu be indicted on fraud and bribery charges in a scheme to get positive media coverage.
Miko Peled, a former member of the IDF turned pro-Palestinian activist and author of "The General's Son - A Journey of an Israeli in Palestine," says that the anti-Hezbollah offensive is "of course" related to the corruption probe.
"When [Avigdor] Lieberman, the previous defense minister, resigned, he handed Netanyahu a wonderful gift, which is the Ministry of Defense, and now Netanyahu is defense minister, as well as many other things," Peled told Radio Sputnik's Loud & Clear.
"Being defense minister allows him to parade and portray himself as this military expert," he added.
"Yesterday, if you look at the Israeli papers, there was some mention of the corruption charges. Today, it's all southern Lebanon, it's all Hezbollah, it's all pictures of Netanyahu with his senior security staff, with the generals and so-forth. So this is a great PR and political gift that he got when Lieberman resigned, and now he's making use of it," Peled told Loud & Clear hosts John Kiriakou and Brian Becker. "And of course the police chief who recommended that Netanyahu be indicted was just fired."
Former Israeli Defense Minister Avigdor Lieberman resigned in protest of Netanyahu's ceasefire in Gaza on November 14, which made Netanyahu officially the defense minister. Netanyahu also occupies the positions of Foreign Minister and Communications Minister in addition to the position he was elected to - Prime Minister.
"He's half the Israeli government, practically," Kiriakou commented on what is considered to be the "one genuine democracy in the Middle East" by outgoing US Ambassador to the UN Nikki Haley.
"It's ridiculous, but it allows him a lot of wonderful PR and a lot of political maneuvering, and he does it really well, to the point that indicting him seems extremely unlikely," Peled told Kiriakou and Becker.

The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) announced its new operation to "expose and thwart" tunnels stretching from Lebanon into northern Israel which it says were built by the Hezbollah militant group. Amid soaring tensions in the region due to the Syrian war and US-led attempts to choke Iran's economy, Israeli military officials were quick to name Iran as a culprit behind Hezbollah acts of aggression, including infrastructure like the tunnels.
Lt. Col Jonathan Conricus, an Israeli military spokesman, said, "We see Hezbollah's activities as a flagrant and blatant violation of Israeli sovereignty" and of U.N. resolutions. He added, "This activity is another example of the negative effects of Iranian entrenchment in the region."
The IDF announced that operations have commenced via official social media accounts:
BREAKING: We have just launched Operation Northern Shield to expose and neutralize cross-border attack tunnels dug by Hezbollah from #Lebanon to #Israel. #NorthernShield pic.twitter.com/HKgnbhn23I
- Israel Defense Forces (@IDF) December 4, 2018
For now the IDF has said it plans only to work toward neutralizing the tunnels as they exist inside Israeli territory and says they are not currently being used. But announcement of the operation has already sent tensions soaring, as Lebanese troops and intelligence were immediately deployed to the southern border on Tuesday, alongside U.N. peacekeeping officials.
According to the AP, which photographed the first tunnels being destroyed:
Israel has been using earthmovers and other large machinery to build a massive wall along its northern border, saying the barrier is needed to protect civilians from Hezbollah attacks. While the construction has prompted complaints from the Lebanese army, Hezbollah has not responded, an indication it could remain restrained amid the new operation.
Operation Northern Shield began a mere hours after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu met with Secretary of State Mike Pompeo in which the leaders discussed "ways to halt together Iranian aggression in the region," notably in Lebanon.
Hezbollah is seen as Iran's most powerful proxy force, which has only been made stronger coming off the victory of the Syrian war in defense of the government under Bashar al-Assad. This despite Israeli air raids having targeted Hezbollah positions and weapons store houses hundreds of times since 2013.

Operation Northern Shield: IDF Mobilizes Reserves to Ward Off Hezbollah Threat
TEL AVIV - Israel has mobilized artillery and unrolled a partial mobilization of reservists from the Air Force and Military Intelligence to thwart potential attacks from Lebanese terror group Hezbollah following the launch of an IDF operation to destroy cross-border attack tunnels dug by the Iranian-backed group.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who also serves as defense minister, held a meeting with security chiefs and senior defense officials Tuesday afternoon at IDF headquarters in Tel Aviv to discuss the operation, which has been dubbed Northern Shield.
IDF Spokesperson Brigadier General Ronen Manlis said the military was gearing itself up for an "extended operation."
"We are prepared for all options, and the operation is only in its first day. The neutralizing of the tunnels will not necessarily take place within our territory," he said.
The IDF said earlier that it had uncovered the "first of sure to be many" subterranean attack tunnels.
he 200-meter tunnel, which originated in a private home in Qafr Kila in southern Lebanon and penetrated some 40 meters into Israel's north near the town of Metulla, did not present an immediate threat, the army said.

Israeli police recommend bribery charges against Benjamin Netanyahu
Police in Israel on Sunday recommended Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his wife, Sara Netanyahu, should be indicted on charges of fraud and bribery.
Netanyahu is alleged to have traded favors to a telecommunications company in exchange for positive coverage.
Israel's attorney general will decide whether to bring charges against Netanyahu related to this investigation and two others. This year alone, police have recommended three times the prime minister face criminal prosecution, the New York Times reports.
In response to the latest allegations against him, Netanyahu said in a tweet the recommendations by the police "were determined and leaked even before the investigations began."
"I'm sure that in this case the relevant authorities, after examining the issue, will reach the same conclusion: that there was nothing because there is nothing," Netanyahu said.
Police said there was enough evidence to indict Benjamin and Sara Netanyahu for bribery and fraud related to alleged interference in regulatory decisions related to Bezeq, the telecommunications firm. In exchange for their involvement, Netanyahu and his wife allegedly received favorable coverage from a news website owned by Bezeq.
Netanyahu joked about the criminal investigations in a Hanukkah video posted to his Twitter account Sunday.
In the video, Netanyahu interacts with a customer at a bakery complaining about waiting in line for sufganiyot, jelly doughnuts.
"I call them all the time asking for takeaway," Netanyahu says. "They don't believe me and they think I'm pulling one over on them so they call the cops on me."
"Case 5000," the customer replies.
"Forget it," the prime minister says. "Who's counting anyway?"
The investigation involving the alleged enrichment of Bezeq is known as Case 4000.

'What a Hanukkah gift': Bitter PM slams police call to charge him with bribery
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu hit back hard Sunday evening against Israel Police's bombshell recommendation earlier in the day that he be indicted for taking bribes in the Bezeq-Walla corruption probe, known as Case 4000.
"The witch-hunt against us continues," Netanyahu told a crowd of Likud supporters at the party's official Hanukkah lighting ceremony at the Kfar Maccabiah Hotel in Tel Aviv. The investigation, he claimed, was biased and "skewed from the start... A year ago, before even opening the investigations," he charged of the police, "they decided what the outcome would be and leaked their conclusions."
Investigators said earlier Sunday they believed there was enough evidence to bring Netanyahu to trial on charges of accepting bribes, fraud and breach of trust, and fraudulently accepting benefits. It is the third case in which police have recommended bribery charges against the prime minister. They also recommended that his wife, Sara, stand trial in the case.
https://www.timesofisrael.com/what-a-hanukkah-gift-bitter-pm-slams-police-call-to-charge-him-with-bribery/
Cont. from images:
That process makes late 2019 the likely timing for any final word on whether Netanyahu will face trial. The next Knesset elections are currently slated for November 2019, but may very well be held earlier.
Coalition partners have previously said that they would not leave the government unless a full indictment was filed against the prime minister, but recent crises may have shifted allegiances in the coalition after it was reduced last month to a paper-thin majority of just 61-59 in the 120-seat Knesset.

Although the style of oratory of all three speakers differed, each used Hanukkah as an analogy for lighting a candle to drive out the darkness of pain and evil.
President Reuven Rivlin, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Social Equality Minister Gila Gamliel were unanimous on Sunday in condemning human trafficking as one of the most heinous of crimes.
All three were speaking at an awards ceremony at the President's Residence in recognition of the dedication and devotion of the National Center for the Treatment of Survivors of Human Trafficking and to Chief Superintendent Roni Kayam for his tireless work in identifying victims of human trafficking.
Although the style of oratory of all three speakers differed, each used Hanukkah as an analogy for lighting a candle to drive out the darkness of pain and evil.
Gamliel went a step further by saying that on Hanukkah an additional candle is lit every night so that the light begins to dominate.

Netanyahu Slams Israeli Police 'Witch-Hunt' After Bribery Recommendations

A year ago, before even opening the investigations," he charged of the police, "they decided what the outcome would be and leaked their conclusions."
Investigators said earlier Sunday they believed there was enough evidence to bring Netanyahu to trial on charges of accepting bribes, fraud and breach of trust and fraudulently accepting benefits. It is the third case in which police have recommended bribery charges against the prime minister. They also recommended that his wife, Sara, stand trial in the case.

Israeli police recommend bribery charges against PM Netanyahu, wife
The Israel police have recommended indicting Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his wife Sara for bribery and other corruption charges in an investigation dubbed Case 4000.
In a statement released on Sunday, the police said that Netanyahu was suspected of taking bribes and of conduct involving "a conflict of interest" when he made decisions that benefited Shaul Elovitch, who controlled Israel's largest telecommunications firm, Bezeq.
The case involved suspicions that Netanyahu intervened with regulators to help Bezeq and in exchange Elovitch ordered the Walla News website to provide favorable coverage of the Israeli premier and his wife.
The police said they had found evidence that "Netanyahu and those close to him blatantly intervened, sometimes on a daily basis, in the content published on the Walla news website, and sought to influence the appointment of senior employees (editors and reporters), while using their ties to Shaul and [his wife] Iris Elovitch."
Investigators said Netanyahu should stand trial on charges of accepting bribes, fraud and breach of trust and fraudulently accepting benefits.
They also recommended to charge Sara Netanyahu with bribery, fraud and breach of trust, and for "disruption of investigative and judicial proceedings."
This is the third such police recommendation against Netanyahu in recent months. Now, the Israeli attorney general should decide whether to bring indictments in the case.
The Israeli prime minister, however, dismissed the accusations against himself and his wife.
"These recommendations were determined and leaked even before the investigations began," he claimed in a statement. "I'm sure that in this case the relevant authorities, after examining the issue, will reach the same conclusion: that there was nothing because there is nothing."
The Israeli police have already recommended charging Netanyahu for bribery and breach of trust in Case 1000 and Case 2000.
Netanyahu is suspected of having received luxury gifts from businessmen overseas in Case 1000.
He is also suspected of negotiating favorable press coverage with Yedioth Ahronoth publisher, Arnon Mozes, in Case 2000.
The Israelis have been holding protests to demand the prime minister's resignation over the corruption scandals, but Netanyahu has described the events as part of efforts meant to topple him "at any cost."

Apparently Bush & Bibi met in 1998 in Jerusalem
"One of the most important meetings he had, in that regard, was with then-Texas governor, George W. Bush, who arrived in Israel in 1998 as part of a delegation of governors touring the Holy Land. Out of the entire group of governors, Bush stood out as someone who was already being discussed as a possible presidential contender in the 2000 elections. Netanyahu and Bush can be seen together at the Jerusalem hotel where the members of the delegation were staying - Bush looking much younger than he does today, while Netanyahu looking almost exactly the same as he does today, despite the 19 years that passed."

Netanyahu Fails to Mend Russia Ties in Paris
Russians declined to meet with Netanyahu, the latter ambushed Putin anyway but didn't get much more out of it than a photo of them talking through an Israeli translator
Marianna Belenkaya Thu, Nov 15, 2018 |
The talks between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Paris turned out to be "successful and significant," according to Netanyahu. Questions about whether the meeting would even take place were raised until the last moment. At first, Netanyahu even considered canceling the trip to France. However, he ultimately chose to take part in the commemoration of the 100th anniversary of the end of World War I.
This was the first contact between the two leaders after the Syrian air defense system shot down a Russian Il-20 surveillance during an Israeli assault in mid-September. Moscow blamed Israel for the incident, yet, over the past few months the Netanyahu government has continuously tried to prove that relations with Russia were not disrupted.

Netanyahu: Military Power Is Best Answer To 'Anti-Semitism'
"The best answer to anti-Semitism is the State of Israel and the Israel Defense Forces [IDF]," Prime Minister as well as Defense Minister, Foreign Minister and Health Minister of the "only democracy" in the Middle East Benjamin Netanyahu stated commenting on a poll that showed over a quarter of Europeans believe that Israeli leadership itself fuels anti-Jewish sentiment.
"Once we were a leaf driven by the wind; they could slaughter us. Today, we have the power to respond" he added saying that the IDF is has a highl-class fighting spirit.
The modern Israeli leadership has been openly denying that its own actions are fueling tensions in the Middle East, in partucular in the conflcits in Syria and Gaza. So, there is nothing new in that this appraoch is also employed toward the European audiency.
However, this situation shows that the combat against "anti-Semitism" narrative is becoming less and less useful for the Israeli leaders to justify its regional policy.

PM: Israel improving ties around world without having to concede settlements
Amid visits of friendly leaders and reports of new diplomatic channels with Arab countries, Netanyahu says country's strength means deal with Palestinians no longer prerequisite
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday said recent signs of a diplomatic flourishing for Israel were occurring without Jerusalem having to make any concessions on West Bank settlements, as he celebrated the visit of Chad's leader after decades of ruptured ties.
Israel has also recently ramped up contacts with a number of Arab countries that, until recently, had shunned any appearance of even informal ties with the Jewish state. Reports Sunday indicated Israel was working toward establishing diplomatic channels with Sudan and Bahrain.
Most Arab countries insist Israel must reach a peace deal with the Palestinians before any normalization can take place. But in recent years attitudes in some parts of the region have seemingly shifted, and Netanyahu said Israel was forging ahead with the ties despite West Bank settlements continuing to grow and peace talks being stagnant.

A state prosecutor appointed to oversee and review the corruption allegations against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has reportedly recommended the premier be charged in at least one of several cases against him.
The head of the State Prosecution's Tax and Finance Department, Liat Ben Ari, has presented her final recommendations in Cases 1000 and 2000 to State Prosecutor Shai Nitzan, Channel 10 reported Sunday.
Among the conclusions, the report said, was a recommendation to try Netanyahu on corruption charges in Case 1000, in which the prime minister is suspected of receiving benefits worth about NIS 1 million ($282,000) from billionaire benefactors, in exchange for assistance on various issues. Ben Ari maintained there was sufficient evidence to lodge an indictment, the TV report said, though it did not elaborate on which charges she had recommended Netanyahu face.

IRAN V ISRAEL is REALLY BIBI V TRUMP
So if POTUS took control of Iran in May as per the attached Q drop and Bibi at the UN in September said Iran had nuke facilities that would be able to produce a nuke within months, would this show he is opposed to Trump? So WTF is really going on?
Lets look closer.
Bibi gave a speech 5 years ago saying Iran was months away from developing functional nukes SOUND familiar??? Then he gives the same speech 5 years later. The cabal must do war by subversion lets not forget it was Bibi in 2002 who said Saddam had WMDs you can watch his speech to congress here.
https://youtu.be/nN1HOVLf4C0
As per Q's drop Iran was being paid off to keep quiet about the cabals activities in the Middle East. Their actions also do not support the view that they are a state sponsor of terror. Their actions in the eradication of ISIS, support for Syria and ongoing offers of aiding the Syrian nation rebuild supports this position also.
The ending of the Iran deal immediately put pressure on the EU to fund the hush money which was previously provided by the Obama admin. This enabled the white hats to separate the Trump admin from the actions of his predecessor and the asshats running the EU.
Israel for it's part supported the move also as it's blind ambition of it's Zionist Talmudic rulers want for nothing more than a pretext to start a war with Iran using it's proxy battering ram the US led coalition to reignite their beloved Greater Israel Project; which of course took a big kick in the stones with Russia Syria and Iran beating the Israeli proxy ISIS.
Mattis announces he's deploying troops to monitor the Turkish Syria border, as you should know by now Erdogan is cabal thru and thru and Turkey has been the main conduit for fighters and weapons entering Syria plus we can't forget his son, Bilal, was facilitating the removal of ISIS oil from Syria thru Turkey then later sold to Israeli companies who then on sold it. Seems Mattis's move is to put a hold on the Turkish fuckery so Russia and Syria can take Idlib without Erdogan sending in his forces to help the terrorists.
https://southfront.org/ankara-slams-us-plan-to-establish-observation-posts-along-turkish-syrian-border/
Also adds weight to the Khashoggi FF that the Turks are so desperately clinging to with the full support of the Zionist controlled MSM. Still got a gut feeling he's alive in custody as he knows all the players in the MB and 911 perps.
Anyone still thinking that Bibi isn't a psychopath cabalist you are denying the reality of his own words. He has been focused on pushing war in the middle east for nearing 30 years. Here's a video of him from 1990 where the reporter actually asks him if Israel is trying to push the US into war!

So IMO we are entering the end game and the chemical weapons attack in Syria shows this is the case. With Mattis shutting down the Turkish Syria border the white hats have the cabal surrounded in Idlib. Trump in a brilliant move has praised Israel and Bibi publicly ad nauseam creating PUBLIC optics which have been usefully spread by the MSM. All playing into the hands of white hats and limiting Israels ability to lash out at it "greatest ally".
If Q is right and Trump has been in control of Iran since May, which i believe, the alliance has been gradually squeezing and limiting Israel's reach. They were bombing Syria at will then Russia stopped that. The Syrian people rejected the Israeli attempt at elections in the Golan Heights also squeezing Israel there too. Miniters being removed in Bibi's gov, Gaza etc…not looking good for him
Do we think it's by chance there has been a rush of anti-semetic articles appearing WW, synagogue FF and Zionists everywhere playing the victim card????

Iran's President Hassan Rouhani calls Israel cancerous tumor, fake regime established by US
Iran's President Hassan Rouhani on Saturday called Israel a cancerous tumor that is used by Western cultures to promote their interests in the Middle East, The Times of Israel reported.
Is this something new?
Although Israel-bashing is common among Iran's leaders, Rouhani, who is more moderate, "rarely employs such rehetroci," the news outlet reported.
Speaking at an annual Islamic Unity Conference, Rouhani said "one of the ominous results of World War II was the formation of a cancerous tumor in the region."
He also called Israel a "fake regime" set up by Western countries.
Iran has long been identified by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as "Israel's greatest threat" due to its nuclear weapons and support of anti-Israel terrorist groups, the report states.
Terrorist groups such as Lebanese Hezbollah and Palestinian Hamas, which want to see Israel destroyed, are typically supported by Iran.
Iranian Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, regularly calls Israel a cancer of the region and says he believes it must be removed.
Rouhani also on Saturday accused the U.S. of forming close ties with "regional Muslim nations" to protect Israel. The comment was apparently a reference to Iran's regional rival Saudi Arabia and the kingdom's Sunni Arab allies.
Bowing to American pressure equals "treason," he said.
Anything else?
Rouhani added that Iran will defend Saudi Arabia from "terrorism and superpowers," the report states.
"We do consider you as a brother," he said.
"We do consider the people of Mecca and Medina our brothers," he added, referring to Islamic cities in Saudi Arabia.
Nearly three years ago, Saudi Arabia cut diplomatic ties with Iran, after Iranian protesters "stormed its diplomatic posts in Iran in response to the kingdom's execution of a prominent Shiite cleric," according to the report. The two countries support opposite sides in the Syrian and Yemen wars.

The Wall is being built! - in Israel
Israel is the largest cumulative recipient of U.S. foreign assistance since World War II.
To date, the United States has provided Israel $134.7 billion (current, or non-inflation-adjusted, dollars) in bilateral assistance and missile defense funding. Almost all U.S. bilateral aid to Israel is in the form of military assistance, although in the past Israel also received significant economic assistance. (Source: Congressional Research Service Report to Congress, February 26, 2018)
Callum Paton reports for Newsweek that on August 9, 2017, the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) revealed construction details of a new $800 million underground wall to run along Israel's 40-mile border with Gaza and extending into the Mediterranean.
Israel already is protected by a 143-mile border fence, touted by Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) for drastically reducing illegal immigration along its southern border:
"Israel ... had a real problem with illegal immigrants coming in from the southern border, about 16,000 in one year. In two years, they constructed 143-mile fence, about $2.9 million per mile, and it cut that illegal immigration rate from about 16,000 to I think 18. Cut it by 99 percent."
The new $800 million wall is to protect Israel from the threat of attack tunnels dug by Hamas, the Islamist militant group that has controlled Gaza since 2007, and to stop Hamas fighters from swimming ashore.
The wall, 19-ft. high and 131 feet underground, will be constructed mainly from concrete, reinforced with iron bars and pipes and covered in sensors. Work on the wall began in October 2017 and is expected to take two years to complete.
Meanwhile, Paul Dijks reports for Voice of Europe that on Nov. 20, 2018, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu cited Israel's need to protect its borders as the reason why Israel will not be signing the United Nations' global migration pact set to be formally approved on December 12 in Marrakech, Morocco.
Netanyahu said in a statement:
I instructed the Foreign Ministry to announce that Israel won't participate [in the Marrakech gathering]and won't sign the migration pact. We have a duty to guard against illegal infiltrators. [Jewish Nation-State Law requires the government] to stand up for a clear migration policy that protects our borders from illegal infiltrators.
Seven countries have withdrawn from the UN global migration pact over concerns about national sovereignty: Australia, Austria, Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, and the United States.
On December 2, 2017, the Trump administration announced that the U.S. Mission to the United Nations had informed the UN Secretary-General that the United States is ending its participation in the Global Compact on Migration because the compact is "inconsistent" with U.S. policies:
The New York Declaration contains numerous provisions that are inconsistent with US immigration and refugee policies and the Trump Administration's immigration principles. As a result, President (Donald) Trump determined that the United States would end its participation in the Compact process that aims to reach international consensus at the UN in 2018.
Curiously, Jews outside of Israel are rabidly pro-migration and anti-border wall.

The Tide Is Turning: Israel Is Losing on Two War Fronts
The November 12 botched Israeli military operation in the Gaza Strip is delineating Tel Aviv's failure to utilize its army as a tool to achieve Palestinian political concessions.
Now that the Palestinian popular resistance has gone global through the exponential rise and growing success of the Boycott Movement, the Israeli government is fighting two desperate wars.
Following the Gaza attack, Palestinians responded by showering the Israeli southern border with rockets and carried out a precise operation targeting an Israeli army bus.
As Palestinians marched in celebration of pushing the Israeli army out of their besieged region, the fragile political order in Israel, long-managed by right-wing Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, was quickly unraveling.
Two days after the Israeli attack on Gaza, Defense Minister, Avigdor Lieberman, quit in protest of Netanyahu's "surrender" to the Palestinian Resistance.
Israeli leaders are in a precarious situation. Untamed violence comes at a price of international condemnation and a Palestinian response that is bolder and more strategic each time.
However, failing to teach Gaza its proverbial "lesson" is viewed as an act of surrender by opportunistic Israeli politicians.
While Israel is experiencing such limitations on the traditional battlefield, which it once completely dominated, its war against the global Palestinian Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement (BDS) is surely a lost battle.
Israel has a poor track record in confronting civil society-based mobilization. Despite the vulnerability of Palestinians living under Israeli Occupation, it took the Israeli government and military seven long years to pacify the popular Intifada, the uprising of 1987. Even then, the jury is still out on what truly ended the popular revolt.
It should be accepted that a global Intifada is much more difficult to suppress, or even contain.
Yet, when Israel began sensing the growing danger of BDS - which was officially launched by Palestinian civil society in 2005 - it responded with the same superfluous and predictable pattern: arrests, violence and a torrent of laws that criminalize dissent at home, while unleashing an international campaign of intimidation and smearing of boycott activists and organizations.
That achieved little, aside from garnering BDS more attention and international solidarity.

"The constitution and all related details are a purely sovereign issue which only the Syrians can decide and therefore, any idea that leads to interference in the Syrian internal affairs is unacceptable," al-Jaafari made it clear. " The Syrian-Syrian national dialogue conference held in Sochi posed an opportunity for dialogue between the Syrians without foreign interference," al-Jaafari said, adding that participants reflected the various segments of Syrian society. "Some western countries have Sought dominating UN and turning it into a tool to achieve their political interests through manipulating the principles of the UN Charter to justify their aggression, through usurping people's rights like what happened in Palestine, Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Yemen and several other countries in Asia, Africa and Latin America and through investment in terrorism like what is happening in Syria,"al-Jaafari said.
" Syria will keep working to help the displaced Syrians return to their homeland and to launch reconstruction and liberate all the Syrian areas from terrorism and from all illegal occupying foreign forces." Al-Jaafari concluded.

"The Russians, having been there before, would not in fact withdraw, but you've got four other outside military forces [...] all operating inside Syria right now. It's a dangerous situation," the envoy said. US forces are currently operating in areas under the control of Kurdish forces, without a UN mandate or the Syrian government's consent.

The Endless finds of US and Israeli weapons in ISIS strongholds shows who really are the terrorists. Time for Trump to expose the lies and withdraw from Syria and the greater middle east and allow then to govern their own affairs

Registering Israel's Useful Idiots
Depending on what criteria one uses, there are between 200 and 600 groups in the United States that wholly or in part are dedicated to furthering the interests of Israel. The organizations are both Jewish, like the Zionist Organization of America, and Christian Zionist to include John Hagee's Christians United for Israel, but the funding of the Israel Lobby and both its political and media access comes overwhelmingly from Jewish supporters and advocates.
Many of the groups are registered with the Internal Revenue Service for tax purposes as 501(c)3 "educational" or "charitable" foundations, which enables them to solicit tax exempt donations. One might dispute whether promoting Israeli interests in the United States is actually educational, but as of right now the Department of the Treasury believes it can be so construed, protected by the First Amendment.
But there is a more serious consideration in terms of the actual relationships that many of the groups enjoy with the Israeli government. To be sure, many of them boast on their promotional literature and websites about their relationships with the Benjamin Netanyahu and his cabinet, so the issue of dual loyalty or, worse, acting as actual Israeli government agents must be considered.
There is a legal remedy to hostile foreigners acting against American interests and that is the Foreign Agents Registration Act of 1938 (FARA). Originally intended to identify and monitor agents of Nazi Germany propagandizing in the United States, it has since been applied to individuals and groups linked to other nations. Most recently, it was used against Russian news agencies RT America and Sputnik, which were forced to register. It is also being considered for Qatar based al-Jazeera.

Mass-murdering war criminal and Satan-worshiping Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is trying to reach a plea deal to save his own life by squealing on his Rothschild masters, Mossad sources say. The impending fall of Netanyahu means the final collapse of the Khazarian mafia is now in sight and it will not be long before the French and Swiss branches of the Rothschild family and their hidden allies are brought to justice.
Netanyahu's downfall was precipitated by his quickly defeated offensive against the Gaza Strip, Pentagon sources say. This offensive was aimed at distracting public attention from the murder of Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi, the sources say. Instead however, it backfired as the UN, Russia, Jordan, France, the UK, Egypt, and the U.S. all united against his rogue activities. This will be "the final nail in Netanyahu's coffin," the sources say.

One-Man State: Netanyahu Is Defense Minister, Prime Minister, Foreign Minister & Health Minister Of Israel
On November 18th, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu named himself Defense Minister in addition to also being the Foreign Minister and Health Minister.
He began his speech with a long and detailed account of the five years he spent in the military, as a soldier and officer in the IDF's most elite of units, Sayeret Matka. He also spoke about how he almost died in the Suez Canal during the War of Attrition. He also mentioned how he was wounded in the rescue mission on the hijacked Sabena Airliner in 1972. He did not mention that he was wounded by friendly fire. He also mentioned his brother, Yoni's death in Entebbe.
He emphasized his combat record, not only because he assumed the post of Defense Minister, but also because this was his first election speech of the 2019 campaign.
Experts and media are expecting snap elections, and according to Haaretz it is likely that Benjamin Netanyahu will lose them. The Prime Minister, of course, refuses to acknowledge that there will be elections.
Netanyahu insisted that there should be no election for another 12 months and that in such "a complex security period" it would be "irresponsible" to hold an early election.
"We are in them midst of a military campaign, and you don't leave during a campaign, you don't play with politics," he said, criticizing former Defense Minister Avigdor Lieberman's decision to resign, as well as Education Minister Naftali Bennett, who is threatening to also leave. "The security of the state is above all else," Netanyahu said.
He also condemned that Jewish Home Chairman Bennett demanded a ministerial position as a condition to stay in the coalition. "There is no place for politics or personal considerations," when it comes to Israel's security.
The current Education minister threatened to "bring down the government" if he is not named Defense Minister. Without the Jewish Home, Netanyahu's coalition would shrink from 61 seats to just 53 and lose the required majority of the 120-seat Knesset to survive no-confidence motions.
Bennett, along with Justice Minister Ayelet Shaked also threatened to leave the government on the morning of November 19th.
It should be OK, however, even if both Bennett and Shaked resign. Netanyahu is more than likely capable of encompassing all minister positions in his own cabinet, to highlight Israel as "the only democracy in the Middle East." And not simply a totalitarian regime in which the Prime Minister can also hold three different positions in his own cabinet simultaneously.
On the morning of November 19th, Bennett and Shaked walked back on their resignation threats handing Netanyahu a "big win". The Education Minister also downplayed "the apocalyptic predictions" that Netanyahu made in his speech.
"We are facing a security challenge not because of an apocalyptic reason but because there have always been threats," Bennett said. "Something bad is happening to Israel. We have stopped winning."
In his Trump-style, "winning-focused" speech Bennett also reiterated the government's inability to implement right-wing policies.
"The ship, called the State of Israel, is floating in a wrong direction," Bennett said. "There is what to do and when Israel decides to win we will go back to winning."
He also reiterated that Netanyahu is capable of restoring Israel's strength and deterrence and if that happens the Education Minister would remove all his conditions.

In looming Israeli elections, Trump may find excuse to delay peace plan
>The US president has promised to unveil his proposal by January, but if Israel's snap poll becomes a reality, the timetable could change
WASHINGTON - Over the past two years, the White House has kept few things under tighter wraps than the contents of its Israeli-Palestinian peace proposal.
US President Donald Trump vowed in September to unveil the plan by January and finally reveal the details of a proposal that has thus far only been discussed in vague generalities.
But that moment may not come so soon. With elections in Israel now looming, Trump may have an excuse - if the snap polls do pan out - to withhold the plan, which will no doubt be met with extreme skepticism and resistance from various parties and could dent his evangelical support.
The Palestinian Authority has refused to even meet with Trump officials since the US president recognized Jerusalem as Israel's capital and moved the American embassy there, claiming that the administration has forfeited its status as an honest mediator in any negotiations.
There also seems to be some daylight between Washington and Jerusalem over what the outcome of a peace agreement would look like. Trump said this fall, on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly, that he would prefer "two states." Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who said later he was not surprised by Trump's comments, largely refrains from calling for Palestinian statehood.
What's more, the conditions do not seem ripe for peace talks to begin, a week after some of the deadliest violence between Israel and Hamas in the Gaza Strip since the 2014 war.
It would make sense for the Trump administration to cite elections in Israel - and the uncertainty it would cause over whether its political leaders have the mandate to respond to any offers - as a reason it won't meet its own deadline for publishing the peace proposal.

Israel's Netanyahu Makes Last-Ditch Effort to Save Government
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Sunday he was heading into a meeting with his top coalition partner in a "last effort" to prevent the collapse of his government, which has been rocked by the resignation of its defense minister over a cease-fire agreement with Gaza militants.
Speaking at his weekly Cabinet meeting, Netanyahu said it would be unwise to embark on a divisive election campaign during such a sensitive time for Israeli security. He said he would try to convince Finance Minister Moshe Kahlon and his centrist Kulanu party to stay in the fold.
"It would be both unnecessary and incorrect to go to elections. We remember well what happened when elements inside the coalitions took down Likud governments in 1992 and in 1999," he said, noting the past two elections in which the Labor Party came to power.
"We need to do everything we can to prevent repeating these mistakes," he added.
The sudden coalition crisis was sparked by the resignation of Israel's hard-line Defense Minister Avigdor Lieberman, who had demanded a far stronger response last week to the most massive wave of rocket attacks on Israel since the 2014 Israel-Hamas war. He alleges the truce will put southern Israel under a growing threat from Hamas, similar to that posed to northern Israel by Lebanon's heavily armed Hezbollah group.
The departure of Lieberman and his Yisrael Beitenu party leaves the coalition with a one-seat majority in the 120-member parliament. Netanyahu's other partners say that makes governing untenable and would leave the coalition susceptible to the extortion of any single lawmaker until elections scheduled for November 2019.
Education Minister Naftali Bennett, of the pro-settler Jewish Home party, has already threatened to bring down the government if he is not appointed defense minister. Kahlon says another year of such instability will harm the economy.
Netanyahu is trying to convince them to stay, and his Likud allies are already preparing to pin the blame on them if that effort fails.
"I think that there is no reason to shorten the term of a national government, not even for one day, and at this moment it's in the hands of the education minister and the finance minister," said Gilad Erdan, the minister of public security.
No Israeli government has served out its full term since 1988. Since then, elections have almost always been moved up because of a coalition crisis or a strategic move by the prime minister to maximize his chances of re-election.
Though Netanyahu has been reportedly flirting with the idea of moving up elections himself in recent months, the current timing is not ideal for him.
He has come under heavy criticism for agreeing to the Gaza cease-fire, especially from within his own political base and in the working-class, rocket-battered towns in southern Israel that are typically strongholds of his Likud Party. But with Lieberman forcing his hand and the other coalition partners appearing eager to head to the polls he may not have a choice.
Most opinion polls show Netanyahu easily securing re-election, which would secure him a place in Israeli history as the country's longest-serving leader. But several factors could trip him up, including a potential corruption indictment that could knock him out of contention.
Police have recommended he be indicted on bribery and breach of trust charges in two cases and have questioned him at length on another. The country has long been eagerly awaiting the attorney general's decision on whether to press charges.
Netanyahu has angrily dismissed the accusations against him, characterizing them as part of a media-driven witch-hunt that is obsessed with removing him from office.

Israel Ships $72 Million into Europe to Combat BDS and Free Palestine Boycotts
Israeli oppression throughout the Middle East has seen a heavy-handed challenge in the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement, a boycott of Israeli products across the globe; and now the tyrannical occupation of Israel is shipping $72 Million into Europe to counter it.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu dedicated the $72 Million dollars to head directly into Europe, where support for BDS is growing daily.
The European Jewish Association (EJA) announced their desire to wreak havoc on anyone supporting BDS amidst a two-day conference.
According to the EJA, they're drawing "red lines" to stop the boycotts.
We've all heard the propaganda:
"They're using human shields!"
"Israelis are threatened!
Lies.
There is no excuse to murder children. None.
If that were the case, we have to ask why the Israeli influence over the globe prevent sovereign nations from trading with companies that support the BDS boycott.
Even in America, many states have legislation which names companies supporting BDS as "illegal" to do trade with. 26 states now have such legislation on the books.
So, let us try to tackle this question:
If America is a sovereign nation, why are there laws in place preventing American companies from criticizing Israel?
Anti-BDS strength is growing across the globe.
I encourage Americans and Europeans to unite behind the BDS boycott and tell your government no more financing of nations which murder children.
America First.

Is The Gaza Ceasefire The End For Netanyahu?
Authored by Tom Luongo,
"Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard."
H. L. Mencken
The resignation of Defense Minister Avigdor Lieberman over the terms of the ceasefire with Palestinians in Gaza has thrown Israeli politics into real turmoil.
Depending on whose analysis of this situation you read you may be tempted to see this as a good thing or a bad thing.
Bernard at Moon of Alabama sees a weakened Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu being forced to sue of peace after the upgraded response from Gaza. From MoA:
The short conflict demonstrated that:
Israel is deterred. It does not want to launch another war on Gaza.
The siege of Gaza, by Israel, Egypt and by the Palestinian authority under Mahmoud Abbas, failed. The reputational cost of the siege became too high after Israel killed some 160 Palestinians during weekly protests along the demarcation fence. It had to allow diesel fuel and money from Qatar to reach Gaza.
The siege failed to prevent that Islamic Jihad, Hamas and other groups acquired a larger number of missiles and other new capabilities.
The Palestinians in Gaza are united. The resistance against the occupation is alive and well.
This leaves Netanyahu scrambling to fend off snap elections and the rise of the even more hard-line Naftali Bennett who has threatened Bibi's coalition outright unless he is made Defense Minister, replacing Lieberman.
MoA sees Netanyahu in a very precarious position, which he is, and will be forced to placate Bennett or risk a snap election that could see his government fall.
And it is on this point that Mintpressnews's Whitney Webb takes another view, namely, that this is not the political victory for Gaza the Palestinians think it is. Since Bennett will step up the brutality to include all Gazans, including children.
With Lieberman's party already withdrawing from Israel's far-right coalition, Netanyahu will likely capitulate to Bennett's demands in order to stabilize the current government and avoid dissolving the Knesset and subsequent snap elections. Thus, the current instability facing the Likud-led coalition now seems fated to result in a rightward surge, whether it's through snap elections or through Netanyahu-led efforts to placate other right-wing parties and prevent them from defecting.
Other powerful politicians within Jewish Home, such as Uri Ariel, have also pushed for Bennett to be appointed. Ariel told Israeli media outlet Arutz Sheva:
Prime Minister Netanyahu should appoint Minister Bennett as defense minister and this government can continue to function. I think there is an advantage in stability, of course assuming that Bennett will bring security policy to a much better place.
Naturally, there is a desire of more than one person to be defense minister, but the most appropriate one is Minister Bennett, who was promised the portfolio by the prime minister in the past, and the promise was not honored."

Israel heads toward elections as Jewish Home says it will leave coalition
Netanyahu says he will still try to 'preserve right-wing government,' but Jewish Home says elections now inevitable after PM rejects Bennett's demand he be made defense minister
The Jewish Home will leave the coalition, bringing down the government and forcing new elections, senior sources in the Orthodox-nationalist party told The Times of Israel Friday.
The Jewish Home party's decision came after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu rejected Jewish Home leader Naftali Bennett's demand to be made defense minister in a Friday afternoon meeting between the two.
The sources said a date for elections had not been agreed upon. Elections are formally set for November 2019, but it is now expected they will be held between March and May, with Netanyahu pushing for a later date and other parties seeking an earlier one.
Netanyahu said in a statement, however, that he would continue to try to preserve the right-wing coalition. He also made a series of telephone calls to coalition chiefs telling them there was no reason to dismantle the coalition at this stage.
Netanyahu "stressed the importance of making every effort to preserve the right-wing government and not to repeat the historical mistake of 1992 when the right-wing government was overthrown, the left came into power and brought the Oslo disaster to the State of Israel," according to the Prime Minister's Office.
Netanyahu also told Bennett that "the rumors that a decision to go to elections had been made were incorrect," the statement said.
According to a Jewish Home source, however, "It became clear that in light of the resolute position of Kulanu Chairman, Minister Kahlon [who has called for early elections], there was a need to go to elections as soon as possible with no possibility of continuing the current government."
"On Sunday, the date of the elections will be coordinated between the heads of the coalition parties."
Bennett said Thursday he had asked Netanyahu for the portfolio after Avigdor Liberman resigned the post on Wednesday. The party said this was an "ultimatum" for it to stay in the government.
By pulling his Yisrael Beytenu party out of the coalition, Liberman left the government with a narrow majority, with just 61 out of the 120 Knesset seats. The religious nationalist Jewish Home party then quickly declared it would topple the government if its leader Bennett is not given the defense portfolio.

Netanyahu Fails to Mend Russia Ties in Paris
Russians declined to meet with Netanyahu, the latter ambushed Putin anyway but didn't get much more out of it than a photo of them talking through an Israeli translator
The talks between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Paris turned out to be "successful and significant," according to Netanyahu. Questions about whether the meeting would even take place were raised until the last moment. At first, Netanyahu even considered canceling the trip to France. However, he ultimately chose to take part in the commemoration of the 100th anniversary of the end of World War I.
This was the first contact between the two leaders after the Syrian air defense system shot down a Russian Il-20 surveillance during an Israeli assault in mid-September. Moscow blamed Israel for the incident, yet, over the past few months the Netanyahu government has continuously tried to prove that relations with Russia were not disrupted.
"Our dialogue with Putin was quite successful and constructive," Netanyahu told journalists at a press conference that concluded the WWI commemoration. "I would call it rather significant. More details are unnecessary, I think."
Netanyahu touched on this topic once more during the press conference, explaining the profound meaning of his visit to France and, more precisely, demonstrating Israel's growing role in world politics and its foreign policy achievements.
"Indeed, I communicated with many leaders, including both President [Donald] Trump and President Putin, and I believe that it is beneficial for Israel, for our national interests," Netanyahu said. "We were accepted with great respect. ... Undoubtedly, Israel is a growing power. If anyone needed proof, I would have invited them to Paris."
The format of events in Paris did not provide for free time for bilateral talks between leaders. While Moscow initially hoped for Putin to meet with Trump, the Israeli government anticipated a dialogue with Putin. Netanyahu claimed he had already arranged the meeting back in October, however, no date for official negotiations had been set.

Netanyahu said to tell ministers he may not be able to hold coalition together
Finance Minister Kahlon reportedly vetoes Bennett's demand to be defense minister, apparently making elections inevitable, probably between March and late May
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has reportedly told ministers in his coalition that he will not be able to appoint Education Minister Naftali Bennett of the Jewish Home party to the defense minister post because of opposition to the move from other coalition partners, a development which likely puts Israel on course for early elections.
According to Channel 10 news, Netanyahu told ministers during meetings throughout the day that the main stumbling bloc to keeping the coalition together was the demand from the national-religious Jewish Home party that its leader Bennett be given the newly vacated defense ministry, or it will topple the government.
According to the report on Channel 10 and Hadashot news, Finance Minister Moshe Kahlon, who already called for elections in the wake of the sudden resignation this week of Defense Minister Avigdor Liberman, is said to be vetoing Bennett's appointment. Neither report cited sources from the closed-door meetings.

Netanyahu Coalition In Crisis Over Liberman Resignation
TEL AVIV - Israel's governing coalition hung in the balance Wednesday in the wake of Defense Minister Avigdor Liberman's announcement that he was resigning over Israel's "capitulation to terror" by agreeing to a ceasefire with the Hamas rulers of Gaza, and his subsequent call for new elections.
"I am here to announce my resignation from the government," Liberman said.
"What happened yesterday, the ceasefire, together with the deal with Hamas, is a capitulation to terror. There is no other way of explaining it," he added.
Israel and Palestinian terror groups in Gaza arrived at a ceasefire agreement after close to 500 rockets and mortars were fired over the border toward Israeli territory.
"What we are doing right now is buying quiet for a heavy price with no long-term plan to reduce violence toward us," he said of the ceasefire deal.
He added that the IDF did not respond harshly enough.
"To put it lightly, our response was drastically lacking to the 500 rockets fired at us," he said.
Liberman also slammed Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, saying he "fundamentally disagreed with him" - and pointed to the government's decision to allow $15 million in cash to be transferred from the Qatari government to Hamas on Friday.
"I opposed it. The prime minister needed to write an executive order for it to go above my head," Liberman claimed.
He added that the money was not used for humanitarian purposes, rather it went toward compensation to the families of Hamas terrorists killed on the Gaza border in clashes with the IDF, as well as funding the production of more missiles.
"I could not remain [in office] and still be able to look residents of the south in the eye," he said.
Meanwhile, a statement from the ruling Likud party said the government would complete its term and the defense portfolio would go to Netanyahu, who apart from serving as premier, also holds the foreign minister post. In addition, Netanyahu will take the helm of the Immigration Absorption Ministry, since current minister Sofa Landver will leave the coalition with Liberman's Yisrael Beitenu party.
Officials from the Jewish Home party threatened that if their chairman, Education Minister Naftali Bennett, does not become defense minister, they would also quit the coalition.
Two other likely challengers for the defense portfolio are Transportation and Intelligence Minister Yisrael Katz, and Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee chairman and former Shin Bet chief Avi Dichter.

Israeli Opposition Leaders Join Avigdor Liberman in Call for Early Elections
Zionist Union chairman Avi Gabbay and Opposition Leader Tzipi Livni joined the chorus calling for new elections in the wake of Defense Minister Avigdor Lieberman's snap resignation over the government's "capitulation to terror" by reaching a ceasefire deal with Hamas.
Liberman called for elections to be set "as soon as possible."
With Liberman's Yisrael Beitenu party quitting the coalition, Netanyahu will be left with 61 seats - a majority of one.
Meanwhile, officials from the Jewish Home party threatened that if the party's chairman, Education Minister Naftali Bennett, does not become defense minister, it too would quit the coalition.
Gabbay called it "a day of hope" and said that the precarious situation between Liberman and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had been simmering for a while and it was only a matter of time before there was an "explosion." He added that Liberman's announcement would set off a process of change that the country greatly needed.
"After the explosion there will be a process of change, a process of recovery," Gabbay said. "I call for elections now, there is no other solution, it's time for a big, big move, toward a process of unity."
He added that Liberman was "totally unsuited to the post of defense minister."
Livni said it was "an important day" in which Liberman unwittingly "opened the door" for change.
She acknowledged, however, that Liberman was correct in his assessment of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
"Liberman is right, the king is naked and he revealed what we already knew for a long time, namely, that this government is impotent when it comes to terror," she said, in an apparent mocking of the premier's derogatory moniker, King Bibi.
She accused the government of "abandoning the residents of the south" and providing "zero security."
Former defense minister and prime minister Ehud Barak echoed Livni's words, saying in reference to Netanyahu, "The emperor has no clothes. ... This is the beginning of the end."
He seemed to compliment Liberman, however, saying his resignation showed "independence and consistency."
Yair Lapid, leader of the centrist Yesh Atid party, said Liberman's resignation proved that Netanyahu has "no solution to Gaza."
"Today, the quest began for the return of security, responsibility, and leadership to the State of Israel. Yesh Atid is ready. I am ready," he stated, as if new elections were a fait accompli.
Tamar Zandberg, head of the left-wing Meretz party, slammed Liberman for being a racist and a key part of the most racist government in Israel's history.
"It's a blessing that we have gotten rid of Liberman, the racist and corrupt minister who debased Israeli politics. All the government ministers must follow in his footsteps," she said
The ultra-Orthodox Shas party leader Aryeh Deri praised Liberman for serving his country faithfully: "The resignation of my friend Avigdor Liberman from the role of defense minister saddens me. Liberman served faithfully, devotedly, and extremely professionally, and his resignation weakens the government."
Israel and Palestinian terror groups in Gaza arrived at a ceasefire agreement Tuesday after close to 500 rockets and mortars were fired over the border into Israeli territory.
Liberman bitterly opposed the move, calling it "capitulation to terror," prompting his resignation.
"What happened yesterday, the ceasefire, together with the deal with Hamas, is a capitulation to terror. There is no other way of explaining it," he said in a press conference Wednesday.
"What we are doing right now is buying quiet for a heavy price with no long-term plan to reduce violence toward us," he said of the ceasefire deal.
He also blamed the IDF for not responding more forcefully to the barrage.
"To put it lightly, our response was drastically lacking to the 500 rockets fired at us," he said.
"I could not remain [in office] and still be able to look residents of the south in the eyes," he added.

Q Research General #4967: Michael Avenatti Arrested Edition
secret Iranian archive seized by Israeli agents earlier this year indicates that Tehran's nuclear program was more advanced than Western intelligence agencies and the International Atomic Energy Agency had thought, according to a prominent nuclear expert who examined the documents.
That conclusion in turn suggests that if Iran pulls out of the 2015 multilateral nuclear deal that U.S. President Donald Trump has already abandoned, it has the know-how to build a bomb fairly swiftly, perhaps in a matter of months, said David Albright, a physicist who runs the nonprofit Institute for Science and International Security in Washington, D.C.
Iran would still need to produce weapons-grade uranium. If it restarts its centrifuges, it could have enough in about seven to 12 months, added Albright, who is preparing reports on the archive.
Before the 2015 multilateral nuclear deal mainly negotiated by U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry and Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif, that would have taken only two months, but under the accord Iran was required to ship about 97 percent of its nuclear fuel out of the country and dismantle most its centrifuges.
Experts say the revelation that Iran had more advanced capabilities to make nuclear weapons themselves-as opposed to its ability to produce weapons-grade fuel, the main focus of the nuclear pact-is a surprising and troubling finding in the new intelligence.
"The archive is littered with new stuff about the Iranian nuclear weapons program," Albright told Foreign Policy. "It's unbelievable how much is in there." One of his key conclusions from studying the documents was that the Iranians "were further along than Western intelligence agencies realized."
The archive, which is well over 100,000 pages long, covers the period from 1999 to 2003, a decade before negotiations on a nuclear deal began. But the trove of documents demonstrates that Washington and the IAEA were constantly underestimating how close Tehran was to a bomb.
"The U.S. was issuing statements that it would take a year at least, perhaps two years, to build a deliverable weapon. The information in the archive makes it clear they could have done it a lot quicker," said Albright. He added that the French government, which was then saying Iran could achieve a weapon in three months, was much closer in its estimates.
Analysts were still sifting through the archive, said Albright, who is also known for tracking North Korea's nuclear program and for investigating Iraq's weapons of mass destruction programs going back to the 1990s. "I don't think even the Israelis have gone through it all," he said. "Every day when they go through it they see something new."
Mossad agents seized the archive in a daring nighttime raid on a warehouse in Tehran at the end of January. In late April, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu revealed some of the content in a speech that was panned as a melodramatic attempt to prod Trump into leaving the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, the formal name for the Iran nuclear deal. "These files conclusively prove that Iran is brazenly lying when it said it never had a nuclear weapons program," Netanyahu said.

Wiki - Nigeria-Israel relations:
Since April 1993, Israel has maintained an embassy in Abuja and Nigeria has an embassy in Tel Aviv.[2] Over fifty Israeli companies operate in Nigeria in the spheres of construction, infrastructure, hi-tech, communications and IT, agriculture and water management. In turn, there are over 5,000 Nigerian companies and organizations that operate in Israel.[3] Trade and commerce are promoted by the Israeli Export and International Cooperation Institute, the Nigerian-Israeli Chamber of Commerce (NICC) and the Israel-Africa Chamber of Commerce.
In 2006, a Nigerian-Israeli Business Forum was inaugurated in Abuja. That year, the Ministries of Foreign Affairs of both countries signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) in which Israel and Nigeria agreed to consult on issues of bilateral relations and other regional and international issues of mutual interest. The first round of consultations took place in Jerusalem in November 2006.[4]
In 2013, President Goodluck Jonathan became the first Nigerian President to visit the State of Israel. He had gone on a pilgrimage and signed bilateral air service agreements with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. [5]
According to the Nigerian ambassador to Israel, Solel Boneh, an Israeli construction company, is a household word in parts of Nigeria.
In June 2014 during the kidnapping of Israeli teens, before they were found murdered, Nigeria's President Goodluck Jonathan wrote to Israel's Netanyahu: "… I assure you that we are in solidarity with you, as we believe that any act of terrorism against any nation or group is an act against our common humanity. We unequivocally condemn this dastardly act, and demand that the children are released unconditionally by their abductors."

Netanyahu announces he will take over as Israeli Defense Minister
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced on Wednesday afternoon that he will take over the role as Defense Minister.
Netanyahu's decision to take over as Defense Minister comes just two hours after Avigdor Lieberman announced his resignation from this role.
Lieberman's reason for resigning was due to his discontent over the recent ceasefire agreement that was established between the Palestinians and Israelis.
Netanyahu will now assume the role as Israel's Defense Minister, along with Prime Minister, Health Minister, and Foreign Minister.
Some Palestinian groups, including Hamas, are now hailing Lieberman's resignation as a political victory against Israel.

Israel's Defense Minister Resigns Amid Truce With Hamas In Gaza, Pro-War Protests In Southern Israel
In the evening of November 13, hundreds of Israelis were protesting against the reported ceasefire with Gaza.
Protesters in the town of Sderot were blocking roads and burning tires. Some of them chanted "Bibi go home," using a nickname for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Confrontations were reported between protesters and policemen.
Police said they were working to restore order, saying they would "allow freedom of expression and lawful protest" but not "disturbance of public order, violence towards policemen and civilians and riots on major roads."
Approximately 500 people took part in the protest according to reports. Hadashot TV news claimed that southern residents were planning further protests and road blocks in Tel Aviv on November 14th.
Zionist Union leader Avi Gabbay expressed support for the protesters, saying it was a "justified" response to the government "forsaking" them. According to him, the government failed the southern residents by "neglecting" the issue of Gaza since the 2014 war.
He, however, did not extend hawkish calls. "This is not the time for another fragile truce," he said. "This is the time for a true diplomatic initiative in Gaza, that will lean on the recommendations of the security establishment," he said.
"Israel maintains its right to act. Requests from Hamas for a ceasefire came through four different mediators. Israel responded that the events on the ground will decide [if a ceasefire will go into effect]," an anonymous senior Israeli diplomatic official was cited by Times of Israel.
According to Channel 10 news on November 13th, at least four ministers opposed the decision for a truce during the security cabinet meeting. The report said Defense Minister Avigdor Liberman, Justice Minister Ayelet Shaked, Environmental Protection Minister Ze'ev Elkin, and Education Minister Naftali Bennett proposed an alternative response, but it was rejected by the other ministers.
An anonymous source told Times of Israel that no vote to determine next steps took place during the meeting.
At the conclusion of the meeting, the security cabinet released a statement that read, "The security cabinet discussed the events in the south. The cabinet received briefings from the IDF and defense officials on the [IDF] strikes and widespread operations against terror targets in Gaza. The cabinet instructed the IDF to continue its strikes as needed."
Hamas and other Gaza groups said that they had accepted an Egyptian-brokered ceasefire with Israel. Israel did not provide an immediate comment and the terms of the deal were undisclosed.
Terms of the deal appeared to be modest. Daoud Shehab, a spokesman for the Islamic Jihad militant group, said each side would promise quiet in exchange for quiet.
"It's a mutual commitment to the cease-fire," he said. "From our side, we responded positively to the Egyptian endeavor on the condition that the occupation does the same."

Israel's Immigration Minister resigns shortly after Lieberman
Israeli Minister of Immigration and Absorption Sofa Landver, a member of the right-wing Yisrael Beiteinu party, has announced her resignation following the decision of the party leader and Defense Minister Avigdor Lieberman to resign, party press secretary Lyudmila Lagush told Sputnik.
According to Lagush, the faction of the party in Knesset supports Lieberman's decision to quit the government and thus leaves the ruling coalition headed by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and goes into opposition.
"Sofa Landver followed the leader of Yisrael Beiteinu in the intention to leave the ministerial post," Lagush said.
In accordance with the procedure, the minister's resignation statement must come into force within 48 hours, Lagush added.
Landver headed the Ministry of Immigration and Absorption for over nine years and initiated numerous programs and bills aimed at improving the lives of repatriates.
Earlier in the day, Lieberman announced his resignation over disagreements with other members of the cabinet regarding the cessation of hostilities against Palestinian militants in the Gaza Strip.
The resignation of Lieberman has not deprived Netanyahu of the parliamentary majority's support, but reduced the ruling coalition to 61 seats in the 120-seat Knesset…

"Netanyahu Falsely Claims that Israel is Shielding Europe from Islamic Terrorism"
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is falsely claiming that Jews are protecting Europe from Islamic terrorism. It's yet another big lie from a race of people who specialize in big lies..
Since support in Europe for Israel is quite low, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is making his best effort to appeal to the European goyim. While in France over the weekend, he comically claimed that Israel is shielding Europe from Moslem terrorists.
Times of Israel:
>>Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Sunday said Israel was "shielding" Europe from the spread of Islamist terrorism and the Continent should therefore be less "hostile" to the Jewish state, as world leaders gathered in France at an event marking 100 years since World War I.
>>"Israel is Europe's shield in the Middle East [from terrorism], and without us it would spread and and many more people would push into Europe," said Netanyahu at a press conference on the sidelines of the commemorations in Paris. "When we protect ourselves, we are also protecting Europe."
>>The prime minister also suggested European leaders should "change their approach to us" as a result of this alleged protection.
This idea that the Jews and Israel itself is shielding Europe from Islamic terrorism is insane. The Israeli government has been actively pushing to dump violent third world populations into Europe.
In fact, earlier this year, Netanyahu's office announced a deal with a number of Western countries to make them accept many thousands of violent African savages.
There's also an Israeli non-governmental organization called IsraAID that has provided aid and comfort to these invaders. Germany's Chancellor Angela Merkel even gave them an award for their efforts.
Israel21C:
>>On October 29, Israeli non-governmental humanitarian aid organization IsraAID received the German Chancellor's Integration Award in recognition of its work with Syrian, Iraqi and Afghan refugees in Germany.
>>IsraAID's team in Germany was granted the award at a Berlin ceremony in recognition of its Brückenbau ("Bridge Building") project providing psychological support in Arabic for at-risk refugee women and victims of gender-based violence living in shelters, as well as training and counseling for shelter staff.
>>The program, which helps these mostly Syrian and Iraqi women to build better self-help structures, improve interactions with shelter staff and strengthen personal and child safety, is run in partnership with ZWST, the Central Welfare Board of Jews in Germany.
>>IsraAID has been operating in Germany since 2015, when one million asylum-seekers and refugees reached the country, most fleeing the brutality of the Syrian civil war and the threat of ISIS in Iraq and Syria.
Beyond that, there are numerous Jewish organizations openly advocating for European countries to adopt open borders. The Open Society Foundation funded by the billionaire Jew George Soros is perhaps the most well-known of these.
In 2016, Soros announced that he would invest $500 million to help third world invaders inside of Europe.
It is an objective fact that Islamic terrorism and violence has greatly increased inside of Europe after it was flooded with millions of these third world orcs. So the fact that Jews and the Israeli Zionist state itself is actively pushing to dump more brown and black savages into Europe shows conclusively that they are not shielding Europe from Islamic terrorism. It is obvious that they are instead increasing terrorism through their subversive activities.
Furthermore, every single terrorist organization is either formed by Israel or formed to combat Israel - or both. ISIS itself was funded by Israel and by Israeli agents within the US government. Al-Qaeda used American support for Israel as a justification for its various pre-911 attacks on American targets. The entire modern concept of Islamic terrorism is a reaction to the foundation of the state of Israel.
Jews are masters of the big lie and this latest lie from Netanyahu certainly qualifies as just that.

Israel Proposes Forming Int'l Coalition in Paris to Push Iran out of Syria
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu held Sunday a series of meetings in Paris in the framework of his intensive efforts to combat Iranian activity in Syria and Lebanon and work on "recruiting the world behind the demand to expel Iranians completely from Syrian territory."
Netanyahu arrived in Paris and met the French President, Emmanuel Macron, on the sidelines of the commemorations marking 100 years since the end of World War I. He urged Macron to use his influence in Lebanon to put more pressure on Lebanese President Michel Aoun and PM Saad Hariri's government in regards to Iran's advanced weapons factories on Lebanese soil as well as against Iranian activity in Syria.
Netanyahu spokesman said he intends to meet with the largest number of leaders, among the 60 participating in the celebrations, to propose the idea of forming a coalition against Iran. Notably, Housing Minister and former Israeli army's Southern Command Yoav Gallant called for forming an international coalition, including the United States, Europe, Russia, and other European countries to push Iran and Lebanese Hezbollah out of Syria.
"We need to make sure we don't make the same mistake that we did in Lebanon and allow an Iranian military presence in Syria," he told "Jerusalem Post,"adding that Israel cannot allow the Syrian regime to have access to advanced weaponry which makes its way from Iran to Lebanon via Syria.
Gallant claimed that Israel can take out Iran from Syria, "but we need to continue having a coalition with those who can help us," he said, explaining that there is no country that wants Iran to remain in Syria.
He said that Iranian threat isn't limited to Syria as Tehran "controls" three countries outside its borders - in Iraq through its Shiite militias, in Lebanon through Hezbollah, and in Yemen through the Houthi rebels - and is trying very hard to entrench itself in Syria.
On the other hand, Netanyahu said he had a "short talk" with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Paris. He said the talks were "good and substantive and even very important." Netanyahu's office had been working to arrange such a meeting, his first with Putin since Syrian air defenses downed a Russian military plane during an Israeli airstrike in Syria in mid-September.

Netanyahu: Israel 'Shielding' Europe from Islamic Terror
TEL AVIV - Israel is "shielding" Europe from Middle Eastern terrorism, and European nations should show more gratitude and less "hostility" to the Jewish state, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Sunday in Paris.
"Israel is Europe's shield in the Middle East [from terrorism], and without us it would spread and many more people would push into Europe," said Netanyahu to reporters at the sidelines of an event marking 100 years since World War I. "When we protect ourselves, we are also protecting Europe."
"We certainly have criticism of the one-sided and hostile approach of the European Union to Israel," said the prime minister, pointing to the European body's funding for human rights groups that document alleged abuses by Israeli soldiers.
Israeli intelligence sharing and terror training with European nations have helped thwart scores of terror attacks in recent years, including an attack planned for a Paris suburb, aviation attacks on European cities and the hijacking of planes, and last month's plot by Tehran to assassinate three Iranian opposition figures on Danish soil.
Netanyahu also said that diplomacy was futile with Hamas terror leaders in the Gaza Strip.
"There is no diplomatic solution for Gaza, just as there is no diplomatic solution for ISIS," said Netanyahu.
"I am doing everything I can to avoid an unnecessary war," said the prime minister, pointing to the deaths of millions during World War I as an example of senseless bloody warfare. "I am not afraid of war if it's necessary, but I want to avoid it if it's not necessary."
However, mere hours after his comments, intense clashes broke out between Israeli forces and fighters in the Gaza Strip, forcing him to cut his trip short and return to Israel. Rockets were fired into Israel from the coastal enclave, in apparent retribution for the killing of a senior Hamas commander and six other Palestinian terrorists.
One of the commandos, an Israeli soldier identified only as Lt. Col. M, was killed during the operation.

Israeli forces killed a commander in Hamas' military wing in the southern Gaza Strip, Palestinian officials in the Strip said Sunday. Five people were killed, according to the Gaza Health ministry, and seven wounded.
The Israeli army confirmed a fire exchange took place, with local reports in Gaza saying that Israeli planes fired at the open area near the place of the incident.
The Hamas-run Interior Ministry in Gaza said in an official statement that members of the group were killed and wounded in the incident, which took place east of Khan Younes. Security forces in Gaza announced a state of high alert.
Sirens sounded in Israeli communities near the Gaza border.
Palestinian sources told Haaretz that one of the casualties is Nur Barake, a deputy commander of an elite unit of Iz al-Din al-Qassam, the military wing of Hamas. Barake and an additional commander were said to be killed in Khan Younes.
Palestinian officials said the group of Hamas men were fired at from a passing car.
According to reports from Gaza, an elite Israeli force entered the city of Khan Younes and killed the Hamas militants. The reports said that the force was then exposed. The two sides then began exchanging fire, and Israeli aircraft accompanied the ground forces.
Residents of nearby Israeli towns were asked to remain in safe areas.
The Iron Dome intercepted two projectiles fired from the Strip towards Israel.
The Israeli military confirmed that no soldiers were taken hostage during the incident.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who is visiting in Paris, will cut his trip short fly back to Israel overnight after receiving live updates and holding consultations on the topic. Defense Minister Avigdor Lieberman is holding consultations at the military headquarters in Tel Aviv.
Netanyahu said earlier on Sunday that "No political solution exists for Gaza, just as there isn't one with ISIS" and that he is doing everything he can to avoid "unnecessary war." Netanyahu is attending the Paris Peace Forum, hosted by French President Emmanuel Macron.
Qatar reportedly finished paying the July salaries of Hamas officials on Saturday. Thousands of officials who have not received their salaries claim that they are part of Hamas' military wing. According to the deal, Qatari money will be transferred to civilian officials only.

Netanyahu Approves Qatari Salary Deal as 'Right Step' to Avoid Gaza Collapse
The implementation of Qatar's initiative to cover salary expenses for civil servants in Gaza for at least half a year coincided with reports of a new sea passage due to be unveiled between Cyprus and the Gaza Strip; however, the latter hasn't yet been officially confirmed by any of the sides to the Gaza standoff.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has defended his decision to permit Qatar to pay the salaries of thousands of Gaza civil servants, saying he deems it to be "the right step," which would essentially calm tensions and help avoid a Palestinian humanitarian crisis.
"I think we're acting in a responsible and wise way," Netanyahu told journalists, adding that after "serious discussions," the Israeli security establishment approved the move.
"I'm doing what I can, in coordination with the security elements, to return quiet to the southern communities, but also to prevent a humanitarian crisis," Netanyahu said, mentioning the further deteriorating conditions in the war-torn Gaza Strip.
"Without exception, every step has a price," the Israeli prime minister remarked before stressing: "When you take steps of leadership, if you can not bear the price, you cannot lead. And I know how to bear the price."
Earlier, Gazan media outlets reported that Israel had agreed to allow Qatar to transfer funds to the Hamas government in the enclave to cover their civil servants' salaries for six months. On Friday, Palestinian civil servants began receiving money tranches after months of sporadic salary instalments into the Palestinian enclave through Israel, reportedly in suitcases.
In a parallel move, Qatar and Israel have reportedly agreed to set up a sea passage between Cyprus and the Gaza Strip, the Lebanese newspaper Al-Akhbar wrote on Saturday. However, no confirmation of the reports has arrived yet.
The route will supposedly be monitored by international forces and supervised by "physically present" Israeli security staffers, whereas Hamas allegedly stipulated measures used at the Rafah crossing in the Gaza Strip in 2005, including cameras, computer networks and monitoring by international watchdogs.
There have recently emerged reports on a temporary truce reached between Israel and the Palestinian Authority, after last weekend, PA President Mahmoud Abbas met with his Egyptian counterpart Abdel Fattah al-Sisi in Sharm El Sheikh, the peace talks mediator. Following the meeting, Abbas reportedly agreed to the peace agreements in order to give Gazans some "breathing space," according to the newspaper Al Hayat.
The edition noted that Sisi had briefed Abbas on Egypt's efforts to achieve "calm" in the Gaza Strip and halt the ongoing confrontation between Hamas and the PA president's governing Fatah faction, which controls the West Bank. However, The Jerusalem Post later cited a senior Palestinian Authority official as stating that he was unaware of Abbas accepting any such truce agreement.

SAUDISRAELIA
When Netanyahu defends Bin Salman...
Benjamin Netanyahu has made no secret of his concern over the fate of Crown Prince Mohammad Bin Salman in the wake of the assassination of journalist Jamal Khashoggi at the Saudi consulate in Istanbul on 2 October. According to the Washington Post, the Israeli Prime Minister intervened with the US administration in order to relieve some of the pressure on the prince. Netanyahu also stated publically in Budapest that the US must maintain the stability of Saudi Arabia under the [de facto] leadership of Bin Salman.
Of course, Netanyahu's defence of Bin Salman is not born out of love, but rather a desire to use him in order to promote Israel's objectives in the region. The most important of these are to confront Iran, pass the "deal of the century", normalisation with the Kingdom at a later stage and the elimination of political Islam. Since the rise of Bin Salman, Israel has sought to invest in him as he represents a golden opportunity with regards to achieving the aforementioned objectives. This is exactly what the Zionist state did five years ago with Egypt's General - now President - Abdel Fattah Al-Sisi who had, and still has, unlimited Israeli support, especially in Washington's decision-making circles.
Netanyahu understands that Bin Salman is in desperate need of the US, not only to secure his ascension to the throne, but also to stay there and set himself up as a new leader for the region in the manner that he himself referred to at the economic conference in Riyadh last week. The Crown Prince's fantasy even went as far as imagining himself as the Alexander of the Arabs who will steer the Middle East towards urbanisation and European modernity. Bin Salman also believes that he will be a new founder of the Kingdom or, as his supporters call it, Greater Saudi Arabia. This means gaining support and backing at any cost, even if it comes via Tel Aviv.
Hence, reports of Bin Salman resorting to Netanyahu to ask for his support in Washington to ease the pressure on him regarding Khashoggi's murder are no real surprise. The Israeli leader duly wasted no time in backing the Saudi Prince, whitewashing his image and promoting him as the cornerstone of stability in the region. He has made it look as if Bin Salman's removal will lead to the collapse of the Kingdom and its fragmentation; as if Saudi Arabia's fate is entirely dependent on the fate of this reckless young man.

Israel Breaks Silence: Khashoggi Murder "Horrendous" But Iran The Bigger Problem - Netanyahu
One interesting outcome to the Saudis brazenly murdering journalist Jamal Khashoggi is that world leaders and the determined allies of Saudi Arabia have dropped all pretense of finesse when discussing the matter, such as when President Trump told Fox News last month that while Khashoggi's death was tragic and should be investigated, the prospect of blocking arms sales to the kingdom is "very tough pill to swallow for our country" because American jobs are on the line.
Another world leader who's been blunt on ensuring his relationship with the Saudis weather the storm of media and international outrage is Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who argued in public statements this week that while the killing of the Saudi journalist at the Saudi consulate in Istanbul was "horrendous," stability in Saudi Arabia is vital to global security.
Netanyahu spoke at the Craiova Forum - a summit in Bulgaria - alongside the president of Serbia and the prime ministers of Bulgaria, Greece, and Romania.
Netanyahu's frank assessment of the Khashoggi affair were as follows, according to Haaretz:
What happened in the Istanbul consulate was horrendous, and it should be duly dealt with. Yet at the same time I say that it is very important for the stability of the world, of the region and of the world, that Saudi Arabia remains stable.
The Israeli prime minister further stressed that "the larger problem is Iran." He explained that blocking Iranian "terrorism" is imperative for the security of Europe, and specifically mentioned Israel helping thwart recent "terrorist attacks" in Paris and Copenhagen, which he claimed had Iranian intelligence's backing and planning.
"Blocking Iran is uppermost in our agenda for security" Netanyahu said during the summit.
According to Middle East Eye it constituted the first time Israeli officials have taken a public stance on the issue, and the silence has been deafening:
For the past month, while governments and media outlet around the world sounded a drumbeat of shock and dismay over the murder of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi, all that could be heard on the subject from Israel was the sound of crickets. Israeli columnist Ben Caspit said his country's leadership was avoiding the subject "like the plague".
It appears no Israeli politician wants to say anything for fear of offending that country's latest Arab bromantic partner, Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. Bin Salman, according to many analysts, would have had to have ordered the murder of a figure as prominent as Khashoggi.
But this week's Netanyahu comments are hugely significant in that Israel has now gone public in sticking by MbS.
This follows statements last month that hinted at the issue without expressly naming the Saudis or Khashoggi, when Netanyahu opened an October 15 parliamentary session at the Knesset by addressing his familiar theme of "Iranian expansion" in Syria, lamenting some of the public heat and attention had been taken off Tehran for a time due to the Saudi issue: "We must act against the Iranian regime in Syria," Netanyahu said.
This is Israel essentially continuing to tell the West to "keep your eye on the ball" regards Iran. Likely Western leaders' attention is already beginning to shift back to Iran as crippling U.S. sanctions are set to snap back on November 5.

Q Research General #4708: Indiana Rally After Party Edition
In August 2007, the Bush Administration agreed to increase U.S. military assistance to Israel by $6 billion over the following decade. Israel is to receive incremental annual increases of $150 mllion, starting at $2.55 billion in FY2009 and reaching $3.15 billion per year for FY2013-2018.
Israel receives the FMF aid in a lump sum in the first month of the fiscal year. The funds are placed in an interest bearing account and that interest is used to pay down Israel's debt to the United States, which was $1 billion as of December 2006.
In addition to FMF, Israel also receives money for the joint development of missile defense systems. These amounts have been growing over the years, with the bulk of the funding going to the Arrow program.
Obama Signs Largest Aid Agreement
In September 2016, the two governments signed a new ten-year Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) on military aid covering FY2019 to FY2028. Although Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu sought a larger package, the MOU provides Israel with a record $38 billion in military aid ($33 billion in Foreign Military Financing (FMF) grants plus $5 billion in missile defense appropriations). According to the Congressional Record Service, This new MOU replaces the $30 billion 10-year agreement, which expires in FY2018. The terms of this MOU differ from previous U.S.-Israel aid agreements. For example, under the terms of the new MOU, Israel's ability to convert 26.3% of annual FMF grants from dollars to shekels for use in Israel will remain until FY2024, but will then be gradually phased out, ending entirely in FY2028. Israel also will no longer be permitted to use a portion of its FMF to purchase fuel from the United States.
In addition, under the terms of the new MOU, the Administration pledges to request $500 million in annual combined funding for joint U.S.-Israeli missile defense programs such as Iron Dome, Arrow II and Arrow III, and David's Sling. Previous MOUs did not include missile defense funding. Finally, as part of the new MOU, it has been reported that Israel pledged to reimburse the U.S. government if Israel receives more congressional assistance for FMF or missile defense in the last years of the current MOU (2017-2018). Israel also may have pledged not to request that Congress appropriate regular or supplemental military aid to Israel above the agreed upon annual amounts in the 2019-2028 MOU except in emergency circumstances, such as a regional war. In response, many Members of Congress have reiterated that funds pledged by the executive branch in any MOU are always subject to Congressional approval and that Congress may appropriate funds as it sees fit (Jeremy M. Sharp, U.S. Foreign Aid to Israel, Congressional Research Service, December 22, 2016).
Before embarking on his first international trip in May 2017 where he visited Saudi Arabia, Israel, and various European nations, the Trump administration announced it was adding an additional $75 million to the MOU signed in September 2016 for Israel's missile defense programs.
The $1.3 trillion budget passed by Congress in March 2018 contained $3.1 billion in military aidfor Israel, along with $705.8 million for U.S.-Israel missile defense cooperation, and $47.5 million for U.S.-Israel anti-tunnel cooperation. That's a record package of nearly $3.9 billion. The military aid was the first installment of the MOU approved by the Obama administration. While the amount of that agreement was hailed for being a record amount, Obama added several conditions aimed at weakening AIPAC's influence and preventing Israel from seeking additional aid from Congress. It appears Congress sees no obligation to be bound by those terms, however, and increased the appropriation for Israel's missile defense program by $105 million and anti-tunneling technologies by $5 million over last year's budget.
In addition, for the first time, the U.S. defense budget for FY2019 included a provision for cooperation with Israel in countering unmanned aerial systems. Specifically, the two countries will identify the capability gaps that exist, identify cooperative projects that would address the gaps, assess the costs of the research and development, and assess the costs of procuring and fielding the capabilities developed.

Netanyahu admits Israel behind Europe's row with Iran over murder plot allegations
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has admitted that Israel is behind what Iran calls "false flags" in Europe where Tehran has been accused of assassination plans.
Netanyahu on Thursday claimed that Israel had recently revealed a number of "Iranian plots to carry out attacks on European soil."
Speaking to reporters after talks with his Bulgarian counterpart in Sofia, Netanyahu said he had "warned" Europe of what he called "possible Iranian attacks on its soil."
He did not provide further details, but his comments could be a sign that the accusations recently raised by Belgium and Denmark against Iran had been triggered by the Israeli regime.
Back in June, Belgian authorities said that Iranian diplomat Assadollah Assadi had been arrested over suspicions of plotting a bomb attack on a meeting of the terrorist Mujahedin Khalq Organization (MKO)*. Germany later extradited the Iranian diplomat to Belgium.

Israel's Netanyahu warns Europe of possible attacks by Iran
SOFIA, Bulgaria (AP) - Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is calling Iran the "most potent force of militant Islam" and is warning Europe of possible Iranian attacks on its soil.
Speaking to reporters Thursday after talks with his Bulgarian counterpart, Netanyahu said radical Islam is a threat to the world, and that Israel has recently revealed a number of Iranian plots to carry out attacks on European soil.
Netanyahu arrived in Bulgaria's Black Sea city of Varna for Friday's meeting of the Craiova Forum, which includes the prime ministers of Bulgaria, Greece and Romania, as well as the president of Serbia.
Ahead of his trip, Netanyahu said he wants to strengthen ties with these countries and "change the hostile and hypocritical approach of the European Union" toward peace in the Mideast.
Could this be an actual warning that Israel will pull a FF on EU?

Bolsonaro Says Brazil Will Move Embassy to Jerusalem
Brazilian President-elect Jair Bolsonaro tweeted that he intends to transfer the Brazilian Embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem as a part of fulfilling his election campaign promises.
Brazil will become the third country after the United States and Guatemala to move its embassy to Jerusalem, Associated Press reported. In a tweet published on Thursday, Bolsonaro said: "Israel is a sovereign state, and we shall duly respect that."
The president-elect also said at a Thursday news conference in Rio de Janeiro that he would like to avoid problems with the Arab world following his decision. "Brazil is the nation where everyone peacefully co-exists, and we do not want to have problems with anyone. We do not want to kick up dust that would worsen our relations with the whole world ... [The embassy relocation] is not a life or death issue. We treat both Israel and the Arab world with respect."
This is the first time since his election that Bolsonaro has announced his plan to move the embassy. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu responded with a warm welcome for this plan.
"I congratulate my friend, Brazilian President-Elect Jair Bolsonaro, for his intention to move the Brazilian Embassy to Jerusalem, a historic, correct and exciting step!" Netanyahu said in an official statement. Earlier, the Israeli PM congratulated the Brazilian president-elect on his victory and invited him to visit Israel.
Rubens Barbosa, former Brazilian Ambassador to the US, has warned that such a move could hurt Brazil's exports to the Middle East. "Brazil would be throwing away $6 billion per year in poultry sales to Arab countries," he said, as cited by Associated Press.
Earlier this year the US President Donald Trump ordered the US embassy moved to Jerusalem, and Guatemala followed suit. Among other countries, Paraguay briefly moved its embassy to Jerusalem as well, only to move it back to Tel Aviv after the election of Mario Abdo Benitez as the president in August.
East Jerusalem remains a disputed territory between Israel and Palestine. The Palestinians claim East Jerusalem, which was captured by Israel in the 1967 Six-Day War, to be the capital of their state. Israel claims all of the city, including the eastern sector, calling it home to Jerusalem's most important religious sites and Israel's eternal capital.

TV report: Israel silent as Iran hit by computer virus more violent than Stuxnet
Tehran strategic networks attacked, Hadashot TV says, hours after Israel revealed it tipped off Denmark about Iran murder plot, and days after Rouhani's phone was found bugged
Iranian infrastructure and strategic networks have come under attack in the last few days by a computer virus similar to Stuxnet but "more violent, more advanced and more sophisticated," and Israeli officials are refusing to discuss what role, if any, they may have had in the operation, an Israeli TV report said Wednesday.
The report came hours after Israel said its Mossad intelligence agency had thwarted an Iranian murder plot in Denmark, and two days after Iran acknowledged that President Hassan Rouhani's mobile phone had been bugged. It also follows a string of Israeli intelligence coups against Iran, including the extraction from Tehran in January by the Mossad of the contents of a vast archive documenting Iran's nuclear weapons program, and the detailing by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the UN in September of other alleged Iranian nuclear and missile assets inside Iran, in Syria and in Lebanon.
"Remember Stuxnet, the virus that penetrated the computers of the Iranian nuclear industry?" the report on Israel's Hadashot news asked. Iran "has admitted in the past few days that it is again facing a similar attack, from a more violent, more advanced and more sophisticated virus than before, that has hit infrastructure and strategic networks."

Maybe, but one criminal who can be arrested is satan-worshiping Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Netanyahu went last week to Oman hoping the Sultan would provide him with protection from imminent arrest, Mossad sources say. Rothschild and P2 Freemason Agnelli family sources say they are hoping to, as the Japanese expression goes, "cut off the lizard's tail to escape" by sacrificing Netanyahu and the fake Mohammed bin Salman in order to protect themselves.

Israel, Boeing Sign Multibillion Dollar Reciprocal Spending Deal
Boeing has agreed to spend billions of dollars over the coming decade in Israel in the event that it is awarded major defense contracts by Tel Aviv.
The "reciprocal procurement" agreement says Boeing will collaborate with Israeli industries for at least 35 percent of the value of any transaction with the Israeli government. Boeing is vying for several crucial Defense Ministry contracts, such as the purchase of additional F-15 aircraft, fueling planes and transport helicopters, Israel's Economy Ministry said on Tuesday, Reuters reported.
Israel expects to make about $10 billion worth of military purchases from Boeing over the next decade, which would translate to the company investing about $3.5 billion in Israeli businesses, the ministry added.
The agreement would not only benefit the US aerospace company but also could placate Israel regarding requirements in a US aid package which diverted the use of US funds away from local Israeli businesses. "A reciprocal procurement agreement of this magnitude is a significant achievement that will lead to the growth of many companies in the economy, increase their activity and also their success in international markets," said Israeli Economy Minister Eli Cohen.
Under the terms of an official deal between the US and Israel signed in 2016 by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and then-US President Barack Obama, the United States government agreed to provide $38 billion in military assistance to Israel over the decade. However, that agreement phased out a stipulation which had long allowed Israel to use 26.3 percent of US military aid for purchases from its own defense industry instead of buying American-made weapons. Thus, all $38 billion of the deal will have to be spent on US equipment by 2026.
Israel's new deal with Boeing will partially offset its domestic industry losses from that change.

This could ease concerns in Israel over new requirements in a U.S. aid package that divert funds away from local industries.

Hopefully soon the Jewish people will be freed from 3,000 plus years of Babylonian captivity and will no longer have to be murdered by their secret masters for propaganda reasons.
Meanwhile, a member of an Asian secret society had the following advice for Westerners fighting to free themselves from the Khazarians. "They always present you with a duality- either fascism or communism-and there is no other choice. Either we let the Chinese communists take over or we are going to be slaves of fascist Europe," he says. "It is 2018, two hundred years since the Waterloo stunt, and I certainly hope the light side has learned something useful by now," he added.
The source said, "As soon as the U.S. starts arresting the likes of Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama as a show of good faith on the part of the U.S.," the Asians will send tons of gold under U.S. Navy escort "to be piled up on the front lawn of the White House for the world to see." Trump can issue new currency from the gold, he promises.
He was advised to take a look at Guantanamo Bay in Cuba to see for himself that facilities had been built for huge numbers of prisoners. We are now hearing that the arrests will begin after the November 6th midterm elections.
This is likely to be coordinated with a Russian move to shut down Khazarian regime in the Ukraine, but all we can say is that there is definitely operational silence in both the U.S. and Russia, indicating that some big, coordinated operation is taking place.
However, the CIA source mentioned above said that many of the criminals that people want arrested are already dead and all that they will be able to arrest will be "computer graphics or clones."
Maybe, but one criminal who can be arrested is satan-worshiping Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

A new bombshell report in the Jerusalem Post confirms that Israel and Saudi Arabia's somewhat "quiet" but growing security relationship is far more extensive than previously thought, as it now includes a $250 million weapons deal. This is unprecedented as the two nations still don't even have official diplomatic relations, as the kingdom has yet to officially recognize the state of Israel, but continue a close behind the scenes alliance based on intelligence sharing especially in places like Syria or even Yemen in order to "counter Iran".
According to the Jerusalem Post report: Saudi Arabia and Israel held secret meetings which led to an estimated $250-million deal, including the transfer of Israeli espionage technologies to the kingdom, Israeli media reported on Sunday, citing an exclusive report by the United Arab Emirate news website Al-Khaleej. The report goes on to describe the spy systems as "the most sophisticated systems Israel has ever sold to any Arab country" and notes they've already been transferred to Saudi Arabia, where a Saudi technical team will undergo training to operate them. It is extremely unlikely if not impossible that Israel's own technicians and operators would actually conduct the training of Saudi personnel - likely it is to be done through contractors from Western countries who are usually in abundance in the kingdom.
Interestingly, it appears the United States and Britain may also have had a role to play in cementing the deal, which was first exposed by a Gulf-based news outlet: The exclusive report also revealed that the two countries exchanged strategic military information in the meetings, which were conducted in Washington and London through a European mediator.
Lending credibility to the report are prior recent revelations in September that Saudi Arabia had purchased Israel's Iron Dome missile defense system amidst its ongoing war with Houthi rebels in Yemen, which have resulted in several short to medium range ballistic missile attacks on the kingdom over the past year. The controversial report detailing that Saudi Arabia has purchased Israeli's Iron Dome defense system went viral at the time after a prominent Arabic news site, Al-Khaleej Online, made the claim based on diplomatic sources. The report alleged the first Iron Dome missile battery is slated to be transferred to Saudi Arabia before the end of the year in December. Israel had denied the Iron Dome transfer story at the time while Riyadh kept silent: '''"We deny the existence of a deal to sell Iron Dome to Saudi Arabia,"' Israel's Defense Ministry said in an emailed statement to the Times of Israel in September. Israeli officials had only responded to the story after it swept national media on the heels of the claims taking Arabic social media by storm.
Two weeks ago, as the Jamal Khashoggi affair began shaking up Saudi-Washington relations, Benjamin Netanyahu told Israeli parliament: "Because of the Iranian threat, Israel and other Arab countries are closer than they ever were before," the prime minister said. This acknowledgement came after years of Saudi Arabia joining in a covert partnership to topple the Syrian government - a project which has clearly failed. This latest revelation of the transfer of $250m in sophisticated spy equipment is part of a broader trend in closer Saudi-Israeli "secret" relations which will only continue so long as both see the United States as "not doing enough" to thwart Iranian expansion in the region. However, the timing of the alleged transfer of Israeli espionage equipment is especially especially interesting as well as alarming, given that news of it comes just as Riyadh has been exposed as spying on and murdering journalists, activists, and dissidents even as they reside in foreign countries.

Israel says financier George Soros is a threat
''Jerusalem - Israel's foreign ministry has issued a statement denouncing US billionaire George Soros, a move that appeared designed to align Israel more closely with Hungary ahead of a visit to Budapest next week by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Soros, a Hungarian-born Jew, has repeatedly been targeted by Hungary's right-wing government, in particular over his support for more open immigration. In the latest case, Prime Minister Viktor Orban has backed a campaign in which Soros is singled out as an enemy of the state.
"Let's not allow Soros to have the last laugh" say billboards next to a picture of the 86-year-old investor, a campaign that Jewish groups and others say foments anti-Semitism.''

Out of the mouths of Hebrews- 'The secret to Israelis' happiness is the state of perennial and perpetual war'
Why is Israel one of the happiest countries in the world? Because Jews in Israel are satisfied with the systematically and consistently growing violent nature of their country along with unity against a common enemy
Haaretz
Israelis are happy with their lives. Israel is consistently ranked eleventh in the UN's world happiness report, above the U.S., Britain, France and Germany. During the second intifada, local politicians often declared that "it's not Scandinavia here." This statement was a catch-all phrase, used to explain the violent existence that shrouds Israeli society. It was particularly beloved by then-Defense Minister Benjamin Ben-Eliezer and by Shimon Peres, who would use this expression every time a microphone was shoved in their faces.
Indeed, the Scandinavian countries rank above Israel in the world happiness report, but the 11th place is high and surprising. It should be noted that this index does not include residents of the occupied territories who are under Israeli domination, and obviously not the residents of the Gaza Strip, whose daily lives are not directly managed by Israel, but for whom Israel still shapes the circumstances of their lives. The obvious conclusion is that Jews in Israel are satisfied with the systematically and consistently growing fascist nature of their country. They're fine with living in the permanent present tense offered by Benjamin Netanyahu. This present has no political horizon, no future that would see a resolution of the conflict, only a perennial war with the Palestinians.
Netanyahu offers no reform, no evolution. He doesn't, for example, suggest annexing the territories. He only suggests freezing the present and perpetuating it forever. The maintenance of the present order includes, needless to say, his remaining prime minister. Nothing will happen, since what we have now is all we'll ever have. The future is actually impossible. One cannot escape the grip of the present.
It is therefore interesting to see how this perpetual present, based on a state of permanent war with the Palestinians, is the secret ingredient for attaining happiness. The world index shows that there is considerable solidarity among Israelis, great identification with the state and a tendency to unite - vital components for the presence of a sense of happiness in a population.
"It seems this coming together is related to the situation of a long-term, ongoing war; it is an instinctive unity against a common enemy," said Prof. Richard Layard, one of the report's editors, in an interview with Amir Mandel (Haaretz, 20.8).
"It increases the general feeling of belonging and the experience of happiness, or satisfaction, related to the Israeli experience," he added.
In other words, a "long-term ongoing war" is a key to the great degree of happiness felt by Israelis in their country. War is good for happiness. "Instinctive unity against a common enemy" affords a key contribution to the sense of happiness. In contrast to the hackneyed cliché, Israelis don't yearn for peace but for war. They pine for unity against a common enemy. The constant sense of crisis, of an external threat, that's the happiness Netanyahu gives Israelis, which is why they love him and remain so loyal to him.
Netanyahu understands this. He provides bounteous happiness in the form of a perpetual conflict: with Iran, a conflict which will remain at a tense level of brinkmanship without ever crossing that threshold and without the Iranian threat ever being resolved in the foreseeable future, and with the Palestinians, who under his rule will always remain under occupation, without a state and without being annexed to Israel - a condition which ensures everlasting rounds of hostilities and intifadas.
The happiness index is experienced by the majority as lovely Jewish solidarity, with a sense of belonging to a collective. It's wonderful here.
