Small earthquake rattles SoCal desert Wed Dec 27, 11:09 PM ET

COACHELLA, Calif. A small earthquake rattled the desert Wednesday, but there were no immediate reports of any injuries or damage, authorities said.

The magnitude-3.1 temblor struck at 1:36 p.m. and was centered eight miles northeast of Coachella, according to a preliminary report from the U.S. Geological Survey.A dispatcher for the Riverside County Sheriff's Department said there were no reports of damage or injuries.

Quakes disrupt Asia communications
POSTED: 1104 GMT (1904 HKT), December 27, 2006 CNN

SINGAPORE (Reuters) -- Telecommunications around Asia were severely disrupted on Wednesday after earthquakes off Taiwan damaged undersea cables, slowing Internet services and hindering financial transactions, particularly in the currency market.Banks and businesses across the region reported problems with communications, with some telephone lines cut and Internet access slowing to a crawl.South Korea's top fixed-line and broadband service provider, KT Corp, said in a statement that six submarine cables were knocked out by Tuesday night's earthquakes.Twenty-seven of our customers were hit, including banks and churches, a KT spokesman said. It is not known yet when we can fully restore the services.Banks in Seoul said foreign exchange trading had been affected.Trading of the Korean won has mostly halted due to the communication problem, said a dealer at one domestic bank.

Some disruption was also reported in the important Tokyo currency market but the EBS system that handles much dollar/yen trading appeared to be working.Global information company Reuters Group Plc said all users of its services in Japan and South Korea had been affected.One Tokyo foreign exchange trader said: There are many currencies in which market-making is being conducted via Reuters and such currencies such as the Australian dollar and the British pound are in a very tenuous situation now.

State secret

In China, trading in currencies and copper appeared to be normal and both the Shanghai stock market and money market were working.But China Telecommunications Group, the country's biggest fixed-line telephone operator and parent of China Telecom Corp., said the earthquakes had affected lines from the Chinese mainland to places including the Taiwan area, the United States and Europe, and many have been cut.Internet connections have been seriously affected, and phone links and dedicated business lines have also been affected to some degree, it said.Officials declined to give further details. Undersea communications cables fall in the area of state secrets, said a ministry of communications official in Beijing.The main quake, measured by Taiwan's Central Weather Bureau at magnitude 6.7 and at magnitude 7.1 by the U.S. Geological Survey, struck off Taiwan's southern coast at 1226 GMT on Tuesday. Two people were killed.Taiwan's Chunghwa Telecom said two of four major undersea cables out of Taiwan had been affected. Voice circuits had been reduced to 40 per cent of capacity to the United States and just 2 per cent to most parts of
Southeast Asia.

KDDI Corp., Japan's second-largest telecoms company, said communications along submarine cables out of Japan went through Taiwan before reaching Southeast Asian countries, which was leading to disruption.But it said communications were unlikely to break down completely since there were alternative lines.PCCW, Hong Kong's main fixed-line telecoms provider, said several undersea cables it part-owned had been damaged. Data transfer is down by half, a spokeswoman said.Both Singapore Telecommunications (SingTel), Southeast Asia's top phone company, and local rival StarHub Ltd., said customers were suffering slow access to Internet pages.But SingTel said traffic was being diverted and repair work was in progress, adding: Our submarine cables linking to Europe and the U.S. are not affected.Reuters.

LUKE 21:25-26
25 And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity;(MASS CONFUSION) the sea and the waves roaring;(FIERCE WINDS)
26 Men’s hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.

Another Rockies to High Plains Snowstorm J. Wilson, Meteorologist, The Weather Channel DEC 27,06

The storm that brought 50 to 100+ mph winds, 1-2 feet of mountain snow, and heavy rain through California will shift eastward into the interior West today. Snowfall accumulations from the sprawling system will coat areas from Montana southward to the high country of New Mexico and Arizona. Numerous winter storm watches and warnings are now posted for the major snow and wind threat to move from Montana to Arizona, Colorado to New Mexico, and into the western High Plains to the western Dakotas by Thursday night into Friday. This storm will be a very slow mover and will turn into a winter headache right through the weekend.

Snow will begin to fly along the Front Range by afternoon into the early evening. The slow movement and strength of the storm will bring heavy snow and strong winds for areas along the east slopes of the Rockies and adjacent High Plains into Saturday. This will bring snow totals in the range of 10 to 20 inches with locally higher amounts in the mountains with massive drifts and stinging winds as the event unfolds through Saturday.

Travel will be dangerous on all major highways near the central Rockies to High Plains by Thursday Night into Friday along I-25, I-76, I-70, and I-80 and at airports, including Denver to Cheyenne. Be ready for the severe conditions and be ready to take cover during the height of the storm. Another threat for this powerful storm will be developing thunderstorms on late Thursday in early Friday in southeast to western and central Texas. These storms will gather strength and have a potential for severe gusty winds and isolated tornadoes on Friday from eastern Texas into Arkansas and Louisiana. The threat will slowly move eastward along the Gulf of Mexico and western Tennessee Valley into Saturday. The slow movement of the storms will bring the chance for excessive heavy rain in addition to the strong storms. The thunderstorm and severe potential will need to be monitored closely if you have any travel plans for the Holidays.

FIRES AND EXPLOSIONS

REVELATION 8:7
7 The first angel sounded, and there followed hail and fire mingled with blood, and they were cast upon the earth: and the third part of trees was burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up.

Fire alert: this is just the beginning
Email Print Normal font Large font Dan Harrison,December 28, 2006

FIRE services used another day of mild conditions yesterday to recharge, regroup and reassess their tactics for a bushfire season that promises to test their endurance.Department of Sustainability and Environment spokesman Kevin Monk said the fires that have blackened more than 870,000 hectares did not threaten any property yesterday, but warned people not to become complacent.We keep saying to people, it's only December. We've got a lot of summer to go yet, he said.Mr Monk said the rain that had fallen in several fire areas over recent days had been a mixed blessing, reducing the intensity of blazes but also hampering some fire control efforts.It's prevented us from doing back-burning. Access has been difficult in places because it's too slippery and wet to get into, and also some of the clouds have prevented our infra-red mapping aircraft from flying the edge of the fire.

Country Fire Authority state duty officer Peter Baker said no towns were under threat and encouraged holidaymakers to visit fire-affected communities. But he urged residents of fire-prone areas to remain vigilant.The fire activity has subsided … but there are still an enormous number of hot spots within the fire, he said.As many local firefighters enjoy their first decent break in weeks, 27 Northern Territory firefighters were due to arrive last night, to be joined today by about 10 from NSW and South Australia.About 55 New Zealanders and up to 70 Canadians are expected to arrive early in January, and Victorian authorities are in talks with their United States counterparts about further reinforcements.

A MESSAGE FROM RABBI ECKSTEIN

Stan,

The following biblical words came to my mind recently when I learned there were over 35,000 impoverished pre-school and kindergarten children across Israel in need of food: Feed the hungry, and help those in trouble. Then your light will shine out from the darkness. (Isaiah 58:10) In response to this great need, The Fellowship will be the light to these needy children by providing them with a hot lunch every school day for a year -- for only $92 per child! That meal is likely the only one these children will have in the course of their day.

Can we count on your donation today to help feed these children?

Think about it. For less than $8 per month, a poor Israeli child can receive a nutritious school lunch for an entire year. This is truly a small investment that provides a very rich return! The Fellowship has made the commitment to help 35,000 children through this program in 2007. And, to get started, we have set the goal of raising $92,000 before January 1 -- just five days from today. This will be enough to feed 1,000 children next year. It is an ambitious goal -- and we need your help to reach it. Please join us in this important work by giving a gift of $92 to feed one child in Israel for an entire year, or $184 to feed two children. Or, perhaps God has laid it upon your heart to provide meals for a child for six months for a gift of $46. Please make an online donation today, and know that your gift of any amount will be a great blessing to a hungry child. Thank you, my friend, for shining your light upon poor Israeli children through this important ministry.

With prayers for shalom, peace,

Rabbi Yechiel Eckstein
President International Fellowship of Christians and Jews.

WW3 THE 3 WAVES THAT MARCH TO ISRAEL

DANIEL 11:40-45
40 And at the time of the end shall the king of the south( EGYPT) push at him:(EU DICTATOR IN ISRAEL) and the king of the north (RUSSIA AND MUSLIM HORDES OF EZEK 38+39) shall come against him like a whirlwind, with chariots, and with horsemen, and with many ships; and he shall enter into the countries, and shall overflow and pass over.
41 He shall enter also into the glorious land, and many countries shall be overthrown: but these shall escape out of his hand, even Edom, and Moab, and the chief of the children of Ammon.(JORDAN)
42 He shall stretch forth his hand also upon the countries: and the land of Egypt shall not escape.
43 But he shall have power over the treasures of gold and of silver, and over all the precious things of Egypt: and the Libyans and the Ethiopians shall be at his steps.
44 But tidings out of the east(CHINA 2ND WAVE OF WW3) and out of the north(RUSSIA, MUSLIMS WHATS LEFT FROM WAVE 1) shall trouble him:(EU DICTATOR IN ISRAEL) therefore he shall go forth with great fury to destroy, and utterly to make away many.( 1/3RD OF EARTHS POPULATION)
45 And he shall plant the tabernacles of his palace between the seas in the glorious holy mountain; yet he shall come to his end, and none shall help him.

The Third and Final Wave of WW3 is when all Nations march to Jerusalem, but JESUS bodily returns to earth and destroys them,sets up his KINGDOM OF RULE FOR 1000 YEARS THEN FOREVER.

Iran heads for key nuclear vote
POSTED: 0915 GMT (1715 HKT), December 27, 2006

TEHRAN, Iran (CNN) -- Iran's parliament is debating how its government should respond to International Atomic Energy Agency demands for inspections and monitoring of its nuclear production facilities, and a decisive vote could happen Wednesday.

The parliament decided Sunday that it would revise its relationship with the IAEA in the wake of the U.N. Security Council voted to impose sanctions on Iran for failing to suspend its nuclear program.The U.N. resolution, passed by all 15 council members, orders all countries to ban the supply of materials and technology that could contribute to Iran's nuclear and missile programs. It also freezes assets of companies and individuals in the country's nuclear and missile programs. These are identified on a U.N. list.

The resolution is a reaction to Iran's failure to comply with an August 31 U.N. deadline to suspend uranium enrichment work and resume negotiations.While there is disagreement within the Iranian government on how it should respond to the international community's pressure, the parliament is seeking to create a united front for Iran which might include cooperation with the IAEA but with some conditions placed on inspections.The parliament's conclusions would become guidance for the government of President Ahmadinejad in dealing with the IAEA.

Army Begs: Let Us Fire Back!
By Hillel Fendel (INN)

The government's restraint in the face of the rocket attacks is immoral, ineffective, and must end. So say various IDF officers, as Olmert convenes an emergency security meeting this morning. Defense Minister Amir Peretz said it last night, following the serious wounding of two boys in Sderot by a Kassam rocket, and increasing numbers of army officers are now saying it publicly as well: The policy of restraint must end.Peretz told Olmert last night that Israel can no longer afford to restrain its fire. IDF forces are currently not permitted even to fire at a Kassam rocket launching cell, unless the soldiers' lives are directly and immediately endangered.Col. (ret.) Moshe Hager, a deputy division head during Operation Defensive Shield in 2002, told Arutz-7, The current policy is immoral - not because of any given Kassam attack, but because every minute, Gaza is becoming more and more like Lebanon, as the terrorists increase their military capabilities. The Negev will soon be lost to us, at this rate.

Hager's recommendation is to conquer all of Gaza, kill all the terrorists, install mayors whom we support, and realize that the Palestinian Authority has not fulfilled its Oslo commitments and that the Oslo Accords no longer exist... At the very least, the northern Gaza areas must be conquered in order to shorten the range of Kassam rockets. In addition, the Philadelphi corridor in southern Gaza must also be conquered; it will be hard, but it's absolutely imperative, in order to crumble the terrorist infrastructures, just like during Operation Defensive Shield.An unnamed government source, quoted on Voice of Israel Radio, said that the security establishment would recommend putting an end to restraint and taking military action against the rocket launchers.The IDF's inaction gives immunity to the rocket launching cells, an unnamed army official told Ynet. In the past, a terrorist who went out on a rocket launching mission thought seven times whether it was worth it and what were the chances that he would be hit. Now, he doesn't have to think even twice.Maj.-Gen. (ret.) Yom Tov Samiyeh, a former IDF Southern Region Commander, told Army Radio today that if we don't want to end up having to re-conquer all of Gaza - and I don't want to; who needs it? - then we had better implement smaller-scale military measures to uproot the terrorist infrastructure there.It is assumed that Prime Minister Olmert is still trying to fulfill his promises to Palestinian Authority chairman Abu Mazen at their Saturday night meeting. Olmert promises to remove many security checkpoints throughout Judea and Samaria - though the army is reviewing the issue and this will not happen until next week at the earliest.

Olmert also promised to free up $100 million in tax monies that Israel had been withholding.The wounding of the two boys last night was the climax of a day of Kassam rockets against Israel. No fewer than eight rockets were fired, the most in one day since the ceasefire took effect just over a month ago. Damage was caused, and one rocket landed dangerously close to a sensitive infrastructure in southern Ashkelon.

Noticeably differing in his approach is Yuval Diskin, the head of the General Security Service (Shabak). Diskin has recommended that Israel act diplomatically, not militarily. Just two days ago, Israel submitted a detailed complaint to the UN against the PA and its continued ceasefire violations.Meanwhile, Shimon Peres continues to reach out to Israel's deadliest enemies. In a speech in Spain last night, the Vice Prime Minister said he believes Hamas is an important factor in the Middle East peace process, and that the organization should play a role in it. Israel's official position is to conduct no negotiations with Hamas as long as it continues not to recognize Israel's right to exist and calls for its destruction.

14 Wherefore hear the word of the LORD, ye scornful men, that rule this people which is in Jerusalem.
15 Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves:
16 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste.
17 Judgment also will I lay to the line, and righteousness to the plummet: and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding place.
18 And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it.

25 And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart, and by peace shall destroy many: he shall also stand up against the Prince of princes;(JESUS) but he shall be broken without hand.

19 The earth is utterly broken down, the earth is clean dissolved, the earth is moved exceedingly.
20 The earth shall reel to and fro like a drunkard, and shall be removed like a cottage; and the transgression thereof shall be heavy upon it; and it shall fall, and not rise again.
21 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the LORD shall punish the host of the high ones that are on high, and the kings of the earth upon the earth.
22 And they shall be gathered together, as prisoners are gathered in the pit, and shall be shut up in the prison, and after many days shall they be visited.
23 Then the moon shall be confounded, and the sun ashamed, when the LORD of hosts shall reign in mount Zion, and in Jerusalem, and before his ancients gloriously.

EU says it's concerned about Israeli settlement
27 Dec 2006 15:44:35 GMT,Source: Reuters

More HELSINKI, Dec 27 (Reuters) - The European Union said on Wednesday it was deeply concerned about Israel's plan to turn a former army base in the occupied West Bank into a settlement for 30 Jewish settler families evacuated from Gaza last year.A U.S.-backed Israeli-Palestinian peace plan known as the road map calls for a halt to settlement construction in the West Bank, land Palestinians want for a state.This development runs contrary to the commitment undertaken by Israel in the road map, Finland, which holds the rotating presidency of the EU, said in a statement.The Presidency of the European Union expresses its deep concern at the news that the Israeli Government has authorised the construction of the Maskiot settlement in the West Bank.

Such unilateral actions are also illegal under international law and threaten to render the two-state solution physically impossible to implement, it said.The families planning to move to the former army base in Maskiot lived in two of the 21 settlements Israel dismantled in the Gaza Strip in 2005 under a disengagement plan promoted by former Prime Minister Ariel Sharon.

Some 8,500 settlers were pulled out of the Gaza Strip, along with Israeli troops, after 38 years of occupation.The Presidency of the EU urges the parties to refrain from all activities that would endanger the ceasefire, Finland said. Extending the ceasefire to the West Bank must be an urgent goal.Some 260,000 settlers live in the West Bank, among 2.5 million Palestinians. The World Court has branded Israeli settlements on land captured in the 1967 Middle East war as illegal. Israel disputes this.

11 And thou shalt say, I will go up to the land of unwalled villages; I will go to them that are at rest, that dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates,
12 To take a spoil, and to take a prey; to turn thine hand upon the desolate places that are now inhabited, and upon the people that are gathered out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and goods, that dwell in the midst of the land.

30 And I will shew wonders in the heavens and in the earth, blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke.(NUCLEAR BOMB)
31 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the LORD come.

Terror groups use cease fire to form guerrilla armies
Palestinians enhancing capabilities, working to mimic Hezbollah warfare

TEL AVIV -- Hamas and other Palestinian terror groups have been using a cease-fire agreed to last month to smuggle weapons into the Gaza Strip and build Hezbollah-like guerilla armies to confront the Jewish state, according to the Israeli Defense Forces. In another few months, in the Gaza Strip we will have to deal with military capabilities of the terror organizations that we haven't been familiar with until now, said Sami Turjeman, head of the IDF's operations department.

Yossi Beidetz, head of research for the IDF's military intelligence unit, warned Hamas has been using the cease-fire, which went into effect Nov. 26, to strengthen its forces and prepare for conflict with Israel. Senior defense officials told WND Palestinian terror groups in Gaza have been focusing their weapons procurement and training efforts on mimicking guerrilla warfare actions carried out by Hezbollah during its confrontation against Israel in Lebanon this past summer.

The officials said the Palestinian groups learned Hezbollah-like tactics, such as raids of military installations and the use of antitank fire, can be more effective than ordinary terror attacks. The officials said Hezbollah militants have been aiding in Palestinian training efforts in the Egyptian Sinai desert bordering the Gaza Strip. They also said more than 20 tons of weapons have been brought into
Gaza from the neighboring Sinai desert in the last 10 months, including a large number of anti-tank missiles, which caused the highest number of Israeli military casualties during the last Lebanon war.

The officials said the Palestinian terror groups are also focusing much of their efforts on smuggling from Egypt longer-range missiles such as advanced Qassams and Katyusha rockets, which could target Jewish communities deeper into Israel similar to Hezbollah's use of Katyusha rockets that devastated northern Israel last summer. Israel withdrew from Gaza in August 2005. In a deal brokered in November by Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, the Egypt-Gaza border, once controlled by the Jewish state, now is manned by Egyptian and Palestinian security officials and observed by European monitors. The monitors reportedly have fled their duty several times the past few months. Israeli security officials have noted multiple breaches in border security, including the open transport of terrorists and weapons across the border.

They say several key sections of the border are penetrable and that smuggling tunnels that snake under the border are thriving.

Terror leaders admit: We are copying Hezbollah

Speaking to WND, senior terror leaders in Gaza, including militants from Palestinian Authority President Abbas' Fatah party, admitted they are working to copy Hezbollah warfare tactics.

We are turning Gaza into south Lebanon, Abu Ahmed, northern Gaza leader for the Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigades terror group told WND. We learned from Hezbollah's victory that Israel can be defeated if we know how to hit them and if we are well prepared, Abu Ahmed said. We are importing rockets and the knowledge to launch them and we are also making many plans for battle. Abu Abdullah, a leader of Hamas so-called military wing told WND his group is preparing for war against Israel. In the last 15 months, even though the fighters of Hamas kept the cease-fire, we did not stop making important advancements and professional training on the military level. In the future, after Hamas is obliged to stop the cease-fire, the world shall see our new military capabilities, said Abu Abdullah, who is considered one of the most important operational members of Hamas' Izzedine al-Qassam Martyrs Brigades, Hamas' declared resistance department. Al Aqsa's Abu Ahmed said his group is receiving help from Hezbollah to import long-range rockets and train in guerrilla warfare tactics. We have warm relations with Hezbollah, which helps with some of the training programs, Abu Ahmed said. We don't have anything to be ashamed of – that we are dealing with Hezbollah and that we are receiving training and information from them.

He said Hezbollah maintains cells in the Sinai.

The Sinai is an excellent ground for training, the exchange of information and weapons and for meetings on how to turn every piece of land into usable territory for a confrontation with Israel, Abu Ahmed said.

Palestinians establishing Gaza war bunkers

Abu Ahmed said Palestinian groups are developing war bunkers inside Gaza similar to the underground Hezbollah lairs Israel found during the war in Lebanon. Our preparations include the building of special bunkers. Of course, we are taking into consideration that Gaza is not the same topography as Lebanon, Abu Ahmed said. During its confrontation with Hezbollah, Israel destroyed scores of complex bunkers that snaked along the Lebanese side of the Israel-Lebanon border. Military officials said they were surprised by the scale of the Hezbollah bunkers, in which Israeli troops reportedly found war rooms stocked with advanced eavesdropping and surveillance equipment they noted were made by Iran. Abu Ahmed said the most important tool in the Palestinian resistance arsenal was rockets. He said his group learned from Hezbollah that Israel can be defeated with missiles. We saw that with the capacity to bombard the Israeli population with hundreds of rockets every day we can change the strategic balance with Israel, he said.

Since Israel's Gaza withdrawal, Palestinian terror groups have been regularly firing rockets at nearby Jewish communities, even after a cease-fire went into effect last month. The terrorists generally have fired three versions of Qassam rockets, improvised steel projectiles filled with explosives and fuel. Qassams can travel between one and five miles depending on the sophistication of the particular rocket.Israel has noted improvements in Qassams, including rockets carrying double engines. Israeli security officials say a large number of Katyusha rockets have been brought into Gaza. Katyushas can travel about 12 miles and can deliver large payloads. Hezbollah fired more than 2,800 Katyusha rockets into Israel in July and August. In August, Islamic Jihad fired a Katyusha rocket into the Israeli Negev. It landed in an empty area. In June, the group fired a Katyusha-like rocket that traveled about nine miles. The Katyusha we fired (in August) shows we can have every weapon we need, said Abu Ahmed. It is only a matter of a small period before Gaza is ready for war.
