Intense rainfall causes flooding, evacuations in southern British Columbia Stephanie Levitz, Canadian Press
Published: Tuesday, November 07, 2006 Article tools

CHILLIWACK, B.C. (CP) - Water levels began falling in the eastern Fraser Valley late Monday but residents of 200 homes were still being kept out of their homes. It looks like the river has stopped rising and we anticipate a quiet overnight, said Jane Sowik of the Fraser Valley Regional District. Heavy rains that pelted the region Sunday and Monday ended, allowing river levels to drop by about one metre, Sowik said. But officials did not rescind the evacuation order that forced residents in threatened neighbourhoods of out of their homes earlier.It was not clear how many homes were flooded. Crews packed up for the night and would evaluate conditions in
the morning, Sowik said.

Besides Chilliwack, 100 kilometres east of Vancouver, rain-swollen rivers threatened several parts of southwestern B.C., forcing evacuation alerts in Maple Ridge, near Vancouver, and Hope, at the eastern end of the Fraser Valley. A mudslide near Hope also closed Highway 3 in both directions near the junction with Highway 5. An intense frontal system slammed the area shortly after nightfall Sunday, swelling coastal rivers already brimming after several days of heavy rain. Environment Minister Barry Penner was in the Chilliwack River Valley and reported some flooding in the area. In one moment it's dry. I even saw some blue sky. And then literally a minute later it's a downpour, Penner said as he watched people from one house carry their belongings out while water seeped into their living room. About 150 homes were put on evacuation alert near Hope, about 150 kilometres east of Vancouver as work crews watched the rising Coquihalla River and Silver Hope Creek overnight. A flood warning also was in effect along the Tulameen River near Princeton.

Residents of 130 homes in the Vancouver suburb of Maple Ridge were put on evacuation alert as the Alouette River escaped its banks.

But it was in Chilliwack where a local state of emergency forced people from their homes. With the rain continuing and the darkness upon us . we decided that it was time to get more folks out of there, said Mayor Clint Hames. They came by around 8 p.m. and told us we had an hour to leave, Gilles Bouvier, 62, said while registering at one of the local evacuation centres. Since the river was already going down I wasn't sure why we had to go, but I guess it can always turn. Bouvier and his wife were sent to a nearby hotel. Workers said many people were staying with family and friends in the area. In 16 years this has never happened to me, said Lori Nash, 42. It all happened so fast. One minute we're home, the next they are telling us to get out. In Langley, about 40 kilometres southeast of Vancouver, some construction workers had to rescue four 12-year-old boys almost swept into the raging Nicomekl River as they tried to cross a footbridge.

The boys were returning to school after lunch but misjudged the current over the flooded bridge. The construction workers retrieved the boys, using a safety line cobbled together from rope and a compressed-air hose to rescue one who was stranded in the current.

The boys were not hurt although one suffered minor hypothermia. Allan Chapman, the head of the Environment Ministry's river forecast centre, said the storm brought some of the highest rates of rainfall ever measured at a number of sites throughout the south coast.The rain was blamed on the Pineapple Express, a subtropical jet stream that brings warm, moist air from the south Pacific Ocean to the West Coast. The term has also come to be used to describe the intense rainstorms that sweep in from the ocean in the early fall and winter. Such storms can pose a two-pronged threat to coastal British Columbia since precipitation falls as rain instead of snow in the mountains.

That increases the runoff into the local rivers, while it also melts the snow lying at lower altitudes, adding even more water to swollen stream and river beds. Some areas saw 200 to 350 millimetres of rain since Thursday afternoon, Chapman said from the headquarters of the Provincial Emergency Program. Showers were forecast for southwestern B.C. on Tuesday. On Vancouver Island, Chapman said, officials were seeing high flows on the Cowichan, Chemainus and Englishman rivers. Across the border in Washington state, an elk hunter from Seattle died when his pickup truck was swept into the Cowlitz River in southwest Washington, authorities said. Gov. Chris Gregoire declared a state of emergency for 18 counties, authorizing the National Guard to activate and the state Emergency Management Division to co-ordinate assistance. National Guard troops were sent to rescue a unknown number of people in eastern Skagit County near the Canadian border who had not headed a recommendation to evacuate. The Canadian Press 2006

Tornado kills at least nine in northern Japan
Tue Nov 7, 2006 2:30am ET

TOKYO (Reuters) - At least nine people were killed, at least 20 injured and others trapped under rubble when a tornado hit northern Japan on Tuesday, local officials said.Officials said the tornado demolished two prefabricated buildings at a construction site, about eight private houses and a factory.Two people were still missing, said an official at the fire department in Engaru, on the northeastern part of Japan's northern island of Hokkaido. He added that rescue efforts were being hampered by rain and a power blackout.The official said 15 people had been taken to hospital by ambulance and others had gone by themselves. About 40 workers had been employed at the construction site, he said.Television footage from the town of Saroma showed workers trying to rescue those still trapped in the collapsed prefabricated buildings, which a town official said were being used as temporary dormitories for construction workers.Fire engines and ambulances were at the site, where crushed cars could be seen along with lumber and other scattered debris.TV showed several houses reduced to rubble and at least one home with its roof torn off.

Washington state hit by flooding
By DONNA GORDON BLANKINSHIP Associated Press Writer

SEATTLE — Heavy rain brought mudslides and warnings of record flooding to western Washington, killing at least one person and forcing rescues by the National Guard.Gov. Chris Gregoire declared a state of emergency for 18 counties, authorizing the National Guard to activate and the state Emergency Management Division to coordinate assistance. More than six inches of rain fell in 24 hours in some areas, the National Weather Service reported.About 200 to 225 elk hunters were evacuated Monday from hunting camps near the Cowlitz River, said Lewis County Sheriff Steve Mansfield. Twenty-year-old elk hunter Andy McDonald of Seattle died when his pickup truck was swept into the Cowlitz River in southwest Washington, authorities said. His body was recovered late Monday.

A sheriff's helicopter in Snohomish County, just north of Seattle, rescued several transients stranded on a sandbar where they had been camping. More than 100 students at an environmental camp in southwest Washington were evacuated, for fear that high water would cut access to the camp.More than a dozen Guardsmen were sent late Monday to eastern Skagit County near the Canadian border, with the Skagit River expected to reach record levels, to rescue an unknown number of people, said county spokesman Don McKeehen. Another 150 troops were expected Tuesday.Those rescued had not heeded a recommendation to evacuate before waters blocked their escape route from several small towns near Concrete, McKeehen said.In the King County town of North Bend,
about 30 miles east of Seattle, the Snoqualmie River slopped over a levee, prompting emergency officials to urge residents of two neighborhoods to evacuate, county spokesman David Tushin said Monday night. He could not estimate how many people might be affected.

A large mudslide near Skykomish, northeast of Seattle, blocked eastbound lanes of U.S. Highway 2, a major east-west route across Washington, while a mudslide earlier Monday near Tacoma delayed an Amtrak passenger train.Mayor Bud Norris of the Skagit County city of Mount Vernon declared a civil emergency late Monday, pleading for volunteers to help in a round-the-clock sandbagging operation in the downtown business area. The Skagit River was expected to crest early Wednesday in Mount Vernon.

Officials at Mount Rainier National Park, which had more than 10 inches of rain in the 24 hours ending Monday afternoon, closed the main park road, turned visitors away and sent employees home early via the only exit road open.We want to prevent visitors getting trapped inside the park. The road is vulnerable to washouts in several key places, and there is only one way out, superintendent Dave Uberagua said.

The National Weather Service warned officials in Skagit County where the Guard performed its rescues to expect worse conditions than in 2003, when flooding caused $17 million in property damage in Concrete and 3,400 households were evacuated, he said.The warm-weather rainstorms, propelled by air currents from Hawaii in a pattern called the Pineapple Express, could cause flooding of record proportions, the weather service said. Several rivers had already jumped their banks.As of early Monday afternoon, Stampede Pass on the Cascade crest east of Seattle had more than 8 inches of rain in the previous 24 hours, while Seattle-Tacoma International Airport recorded nearly 4 inches. Most rivers were expected to crest Tuesday.

Flash floods kill 18, injure 20 in Iraq Mon Nov 6, 2:49 PM ET

KIRKUK, Iraq - Flash floods caused by heavy rain killed 18 people and injured 20 in northern Iraq, a provincial governor said Monday. The heavy rains began late Sunday, mainly in five villages in the Khalifan district in the Irbil province, Gov. Nawzat Hadi said.The floods destroyed nine bridge and several houses, he said. Nine of the dead were members of one family. Three of them were children.Heavy rain and thunderstorms hit different parts of Iraq in the past two days.

Wildfire Backs Away From Homes
300-acre Calif. wildfire backs away from homes as crews work to contain it
RIALTO, Calif., Nov. 6, 2006,By JACOB ADELMAN Associated Press Writer

(AP) A wind-driven wildfire scorched more than 300 acres of brush on Monday, torched an industrial yard and forced the evacuation of two schools, officials said.The blaze 60 miles east of Los Angeles had threatened 100 homes earlier in the day, but firefighters corralled the fire enough to call off firefighting aircraft within several hours, fire officials said.The fire was 30 percent contained by the afternoon, but firefighters remained on edge because the erratic wind, which was gusting to 40 mph, could bring the blaze back to life.There is a danger of sparks and embers blowing downwind that could restart things, said Steve Hansen, a spokesman for the San Bernardino County Fire Department.No injuries were reported. The cause was under investigation.

The fire began Monday morning and burned fiercely for a time on vacant land across a street from a neighborhood, prompting officials to urge several businesses to evacuate.The fire burned stacks of pallets in an adjacent industrial area, causing an estimated $1 million in damage.An elementary school and a middle school were evacuated because of the smoke, which was carried by the wind all the way to the coast, about 80 miles away. More than 50 children were evacuated from both schools, a school official said.

The fire was at the foot of notoriously windy Cajon Pass near the junction of Interstates 215 and 15. I-15 is the main road from Southern California to Las Vegas.Associated Press writer Solvej Schou in Los Angeles contributed to this report.

Scientists to mix cells of humans and cows
By Nic Fleming, Science Correspondent
Last Updated: 3:10am GMT 07/11/2006

British scientists have applied for permission to create embryos that are part-human, part-animal.

Two teams of researchers yesterday submitted applications to the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority to carry out experiments in which human cells will be fused with rabbit, cow and goat eggs.A microscope revealing human embryonic stem cells. They want to create early-stage chimeric embryos that would be 99.9 per cent human and 0.1 per cent animal in order to produce embryonic stem cells the body's basic building blocks that can grow into all other types of cells.

Opponents called the plans abhorrent yesterday and claimed that scientists were undermining the whole distinction between animals and humans.Chinese scientists have previously shown it is possible to harvest stem cells from embryos created by fusing human cells with rabbit or cow eggs. If licences to remove the nuclei from animal eggs, replace them with human cells and then grow stem cells are granted, the resulting embryos would be destroyed at 14 days when they are no bigger than a pinhead.

Until now therapeutic cloning has been carried out using human eggs from consenting IVF patients, but these are in short supply.Prof Robin Lovell-Badge, of the National Institute for Medical Research, said: This is a very rational step: to learn what you can using animal eggs, which are readily obtainable, before moving on to valuable human eggs when or if this becomes necessary.Dr Stephen Minger's group at King's College, London, want to use the cloned hybrid embryos to create embryonic stem cells carrying the defects responsible for conditions such as spinal muscular dystrophy, Parkinson's and Alzheimer's.Dr Minger said: We are concerned that the current state of the technology means that hundreds of eggs from young women will be required to generate a single human embryonic stem cell line. Therefore we consider it more appropriate to use non-human eggs from livestock as a surrogate to generate these disease-specific cell lines until the efficiency of this procedure is improved.

The Human Fertilisation and Embryology Act 1990 makes it illegal to mix human and animal eggs and sperm.

But there is an established exception in the so-called hamster test, by which fertility doctors test the quality of human sperm by fertilising a hamster egg and then destroying it no later than the two-cell stage.The HFEA is known to have consulted lawyers on whether it has the power to approve yesterday's applications. Their legal advice was that it did fall within their remit because the vast majority of the tissue involved would be human. But opponents will point out that, however small, the quantity of non-human material involved should mean that it falls outside their powers.Dr Minger said that when it came to implanting human cells into animal eggs there was a regulatory void. He added: Part of the reason we are doing this is to get some sort of clarification.

Dr Lyle Armstrong and five colleagues at the North East England Stem Cell Institute in Newcastle want to insert human skin cells into cow eggs to study how eggs can reprogramme adult tissues into more primitive cells.Their eventual aim is to develop a way of creating stem cells that could be used to grow new tissue such as liver, heart and muscle cells that genetically matches individual patients. This could then be transplanted without the risk of it being rejected by the immune system.Josephine Quintavalle, the director of Comment on Reproductive Ethics, said: This is abhorrent. It sounds like the craziest kind of science imaginable.

There is a basic human feeling that animals and humans do not mix in these areas. I think the public will be very upset by this because it makes people feel uncomfortable.Calum MacKellar, from the Scottish Council on Human Bioethics, said: In the history of humankind, animals and human species have been separated.

In this kind of procedure you are mixing at a very intimate level animal eggs and human chromosomes, and you may begin to undermine the whole distinction between animals and humans.

The HFEA, which would undertake regular audits of the laboratory work, is expected to reach decisions on the licence applications in around three months. But critics believe it will find in favour because, they claim, the regulator is trying to push the boundaries of reproductive medicine.

REBUILT 3RD TEMPLE

REVELATION 11:1-2
1 And there was given me a reed like unto a rod: and the angel stood, saying, Rise, and measure the temple of God, and the altar, and them that worship therein.
2 But the court which is without the temple leave out, and measure it not; for it is given unto the Gentiles: and the holy city shall they tread under foot forty and two months.

DANIEL 9:27
27 And he(THE ROMAN,EU PRESIDENT) shall confirm the covenant with many for one week:(1X7=7 YEARS) and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease,(3 1/2 yrs in TEMPLE SACRIFICES STOPPED) and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.

Israeli Sheikh: Temple Mount is Entirely Islamic
By Hillel Fendel(INN)

Responding to a plan to build a synagogue on Judaism's most sacred site, Sheikh Raad Salah warns that the entire complex is Moslem. Islam was founded 550 years after the Jewish Temple was destroyed. Sheikh Raad Salah head of the Islamic Movement in Israel, a Hamas supporter, and an outspoken enemy of Israel warns that Israeli plans to build a synagogue on the Temple Mount could lead to violence and bloodshed. The day will never come when a Moslem or an Arab will have the right to cede even one foot of the Al-Aqsa Mosque or of Jerusalem, the Sheikh's Al-Aqsa movement announced.The Temple Mount in Jerusalem was the site of the two Jewish Holy Temples, the first of which was built by King Solomon in the year 832 BCE, close to 1,500 years before Islam was founded. For most of the next 1,000 years, Holy Temples stood on the site, until the Romans conquered the entire land and destroyed the Second Temple. Though the area came under the control of the Romans, Byzantines, Moslems, Christians, Turks, British and others over the coming centuries, Jerusalem and the Temple Mount were always the focus of Jewish religious and national yearnings and continued to be the Jews' capital in exile.In the Six Day War of 1967, the modern state of Israel liberated the Temple Mount area, placing all of Jerusalem under Jewish control once again after a hiatus of 1,900 years.

Israel, however, never actualized its sovereignty over the holy Temple Mount site, but rather granted the Moslem Waqf nearly total control. Jews, in fact, have not been allowed to pray there ever since then-Chief IDF Rabbi Shlomo Goren led a prayer service there on the first Tisha B'Av after the liberation.As Arutz-7 reported nearly two months ago, MK Uri Ariel (National Union) is preparing a plan for the construction of a synagogue on the southeastern corner of the Temple Mount. The plan must be approved by the Jerusalem municipality's planning committee an unlikely eventuality and Ariel is set to meet with rabbis and public figures on the issue later this week. MK Ariel notes that such a building would rectify a historic injustice, and that every Supreme Court ruling on the issue has recognized the right of every Jew to pray on the Temple Mount.The synagogue will not interfere with believing Moslems who wish to pray at the Al-Aksa Mosque, Ariel said. On the contrary, this is an opportunity for the Moslem world to demonstrate and prove that it is tolerant enough.

The Moslem world is not jumping at said opportunity. The announcement by Sheikh Salah's organization states, We hereby warn aloud about the existence of a Jewish national consensus that is trying to build the Holy Temple at the expense of the Al-Aqsa Mosque. We warn that similar plans were submitted to Ariel Sharon and Ehud Barak and their publication led to violence, the ramifications of which have not ended to this day.The timing of the publication [of this plan] is not coincidental, the Islamic Movement states, and it jibes with the increased calls for expulsion [of Arabs], the implementation of the policy of religious persecution and national discrimination, and the giving of a green light to the construction of the Third Temple.We remind, for the 1,000th time, that the entire Al-Aqsa mosque, including all of its area and alleys above the ground and under it, is exclusive and absolute Moslem property, and no one else has any rights to even one grain of earth in it.We remind the Israeli establishment, which stands behind these plans, that the problem of Al-Aqsa and Jerusalem is not just a Palestinian problem, but a Palestinian, Arab and Islamic problem. The day the Al-Aqsa Mosque is harmed, Heaven forbid, all the Arab and Islamic nations will call to prevent this damage. Watch out! Beware of merely the thought of hurting or desecrating the mosque.

GENESIS 19:5
5 And they called unto Lot, and said unto him, Where are the men which came in to thee this night? bring them out unto us, that we may know them.

ROMANS 1:18-32
18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;
19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.
20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:
21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:(HOMOSEXUALITY,AND ALL SEX SINS)
25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:(LESBIENS)
27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly,(SODOMITES) and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.(AIDS ETC)
28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
30 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
31 Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.

AG Approves Gay Parade; Violent Protests in Jerusalem
By INN Staff (INN)

Att. Gen. Menachem Mazuz ordered Jerusalem Police Commander Ilan Franco on Sunday to issue a permit to allow the homosexhibitionist parade to march through the streets of the holy city of Jerusalem. Senior police officials met earlier Sunday to decide whether to issue a permit allowing gay marchers to parade through the capital. Fearing life-threatening violence at the event by protestors, the police recommended to cancel the parade. Hareidi religious Jews have been holding violent demonstrations against the parade every night for the past week.Mazuz [pictured above] rejected the police recommendation to ban the parade. We have to make a decision, he told police. Either we give in to threats or we deal with them. We have to exert efforts to find an equation so that it can be secured, he said. Mazuz ordered the police to work together with representatives of the Open House gay pride organization to find a way to hold the event with a modest character.

Police Chief Moshe Karadi estimates that securing the parade will require a massive enlistment of 12,000 policemen this Friday. He says that it will weaken the polices ability to carry out its duties in other parts of the country.The attorney general maintained the right of free expression and the right to demonstrate took precedence over the danger of violent protests at the event. He offered as a solution to the impasse a change in the parade route, out of the areas occupied by Orthodox Jewish and Muslim residents.

The matter will now go to the High Court of Justice for a final ruling on whether the city will indeed be forced to allow the event. Two petitions demanding that the parade be cancelled have been filed with the court.

Demonstrations against the parade were held every night last week, and once again Sunday evening thousands of hareidi religious men blocked the streets in the capital, hurling rocks, setting trash cans on fire and attacking police officers. Four officers and a photographer for Haaretz news service were lightly wounded in the clashes. Some 25 rioters were arrested. Police dispersed the crowds with mounted forces and water hoses. In the Tel Aviv suburb of Bnei Brak, hareidi religious protestors tried to block traffic, but were prevented from doing so by a strong showing of the police.

Watch out for Putin, say peril mappers
By Tosin Sulaiman

Businesses operating in Russia are expected to confront increasing hostility in the next year as President Putin tries to force through a renationalisation programme before he steps down, global security experts have predicted.The warning by the Control Risks Group in its RiskMap for 2007 comes amid the dispute over foreign licences in the Sakhalin oil and gas project and question marks over exploration licences in the Shtokman gasfield. We are likely to see increased state intervention in the economy, Adam Strang-feld, the deputy research director, said. President Putin will redouble his efforts to ensure state control of the strategic sectors. Foreign businesses operating in Russia may be forced to renegotiate contracts or to sell shares in specific projects. They could even come under pressure in terms of alleged breaches of environmental regulations, with the aim of revoking licences.

Elsewhere in the world, companies face threats ranging from cybercrime and corruption to kidnappings and violence, according to Control Risks. The group says that half the countries in the world do not provide a stable environment for business, with the Middle East and many parts of Africa posing significant risks. Only a handful of countries posed insignificant threat. These included Greenland, Finland and Liechtenstein. Of the 198 countries surveyed for the RiskMap, 96, or 49 per cent, had a medium,high or extreme political risk, which refers to the likelihood of political actors affecting business operations. The RiskMap also ranked 40 per cent of countries as having a medium to extreme security risk, where companies could be affected by criminals or corrupt officials.

Despite the July 7 bombings last year, the security risk in London was downgraded from medium to low for 2007, while the United Kingdom as a whole remains in the low-risk category.

When we looked at the London bombings, one of the key findings in the aftermath was that businesses actually proved extremely resilient to terrorist attacks, particularly larger businesses with adequate contingency plans in place, Mr Strangfeld said. He added that Control Risks believes that the terrorist threat facing Britain remains unchanged. Predictably, the countries labelled as posing extreme security risk are Afghanistan, Iraq, Somalia, Burundi, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Ivory Coast, Pakistan and Sri Lanka. Neil Quilliam, a senior analyst, said there was a real possibility of the United States or Israel carrying out surgical airstrikes against Iran’s nuclear facilities. He said that the Middle East continued to pose dangers, mainly because of the insurgency in Iraq and the conflict between Israel and Palestine. He said that there would be problems for the foreseeable future as the insurgents in Iraq were likely to move elsewhere.

Premier urges to solve Mideast issue through talks
7/11/2006 10:16

The Middle East issue including the Palestine-Israel conflict should be settled through political negotiations, Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao told visiting Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak in Beijing yesterday. The international community should urge all the parties concerned to implement relevant United Nations resolutions and reach a comprehensive and fair settlement under the principle of land for peace, Wen said during a meeting with Mubarak. China and Egypt have become closely cooperative partners over the past half century since Egypt, leading other African and Arabian countries, forged diplomatic ties with China 50 years ago, Wen said.

The premier said the two countries should actively strive for the goals set in the outline the two countries signed for deepening strategic and cooperative relations when he visited Egypt earlier this year.

The two countries should coordinate to promote South-South cooperation and South-North dialogue, and push forward multilateralism and democracy of international relations, Wen said. Mubarak said his nation appreciates China's support in the justice cause of the Arabian people and its active role in pushing forward the peaceful process of the Middle East. The president arrived in Beijing on Friday to pay a state visit to China and to attend the Beijing Summit of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation, which concluded on Sunday. Chinese President Hu Jintao and Premier Wen Jiabao visited Egypt in January 2004 and in June 2006 respectively. Bilateral trade hit 2.145 billion U.S. dollars in 2005.xinhua

Hamas Announces Unity Coalition Deal

Senior Hamas official Yechiye Moussa released a statement that an agreement has been reached between Hamas and Fatah permitting the establishment of a unity government in the PA.

Contradicting earlier statements, it is now being reported that while Hamas will still head the Palestinian Authority (PA), the current prime minister, Ismail Haniyah, will step aside and appoint a replacement.Since Haniyah was elected to office, the western community did not recognize the legitimacy of a Hamas government, resulting in an economic boycott against the PA and its institutions.

Despite formidable pressure on the current Hamas-led administration, Prime Minister Ismail Haniyah refused to comply with American dictates, stating his party will never recognize Israel’s right to exist. Haniyah scoffed at the American-led monetary sanctions, and tried to raise funds among Arab nations. His attempts were not sufficient, and many employees of PA institutions stopped receiving their regular monthly salaries. The lack of funds led to widespread discontent and violent demonstrations against the elected government.

Following the reported coalition deal, Hamas leaders are signaling that they will remain the ruling party and that Haniyah has already selected a new prime minister. The candidate must be approved by PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas (Abu Mazen), who also
serves as head of the rival Fatah Party.

It was also reported that Haniyah and Abu Mazen were scheduled to meet in Gaza on Monday for a joint press conference, but the event has been postponed, due to technical reasons.In order to lift the American-led monetary embargo against the PA, analysts say that Hamas will have to exhibit a modicum of flexibility. They will have to show willingness to comply with the demands of the Quartet forum, which include recognition of Israel's right to exist, compliance with previously signed agreements, disarming terror organizations, and halting terror attacks.

But analysts in Israel warn that if and when Hamas does express such flexibility in its statements, it will be nothing more than meaningless verbiage.

Palestinian Media Watch was quick to point out recently that even PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas, who openly calls for recognition of Israel in his English-language statements, has a far different message when addressing his constituents in Arabic.On October 4, Abbas told US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice that he will fire the Hamas-led government before the end of the month unless they accepted Israel's right to exist.In return, Secretary Rice expressed Washington's full support for the PA Chairman and for his Fatah party in their confrontation with Hamas. But the day before, on October 3, Abbas told the Arab world that not only doesn't Hamas have to recognize Israel but even Fatah, which he heads, is not required to recognize Israel.

In an interview broadcast on Al-Arabiya [based in Dubai] and Palestinian Authority television, Abbas said, Hamas is not required, Hamas is not required to recognize Israel... It is not required of Hamas, nor of Fatah, nor of the Popular Front to recognize Israel.

Abbas went on to say that government officials must recognize their counterparts in order to solve people’s problems.PMW's Itamar Marcus and Barbara Crook noted that this does not constitute an inherent recognition of Israel, just a functional recognition that allows the PA to get what it needs. Abbas reiterated:I do not demand of Hamas nor any other to recognize Israel. But from the government that works with Israelis in day to day life, yes.Other Israeli observers have noted even if the PA commits itself to discontinue terror attacks and disarm terror groups, a specific definition of what constitutes a terror organization or a terror attack
was not imposed by the Quartet. The Hamas views its attacks against Israeli civilians as legitimate freedom operations, and it would never disarm its own militia.

Israeli government officials continue to embrace Abbas as a moderate voice in the PA, viewing him as a partner with whom an agreement can be reached. Since Haniyah’s election to office, Prime Minister Ehud Olmert has refused to recognize the Hamas-led government and all diplomatic channels between the Prime Minister’s Office and Haniyah have been closed. Limited contacts were held on a ministerial level toward a meeting between Olmert and Abu Mazen, but these efforts fell through following the kidnapping of Corporal Shalit.Baruch Gordon contributed to this article.
