The Nation's Weather By WEATHER UNDERGROUND, For The Associated Press APR 08,08

A developing storm system in the Central Plains was inching northeast early Tuesday, carrying a cold front across the Mississippi and Ohio valleys. High pressure was keeping the Northeast clear. Light to moderate rain was to continue in the Central Plains, spreading across the Southern Plains, mid-Mississippi and Ohio Valleys later in the day.Portions of the Upper Midwest can expect rain mixed with snow, and large hail was possible from central and northern Oklahoma northwestward into eastern Kansas and western Missouri.As Gulf moisture gradually increases across the Plains, strong to severe thunderstorms will begin to fire up along and ahead of the cold front from the Southern Plains into the lower Ohio Valley. The main threat will be large hail and damaging winds. A few tornadoes may also develop, especially from central Missouri to part of central and southern Illinois.

Farther east, the low pressure system off the mid-Atlantic coast was to continue to draw Atlantic moisture into the coastal region, triggering mostly light rain. Otherwise, high pressure will keep the Northeast mostly dry. A warming trend also will take hold through the rest of the week.Out West, unsettled and cool weather will continue from the Pacific Northwest to the Rockies over the next few days. Coastal rain and scattered snow showers will continue across the region. Another Pacific system will be approaching the coast, pushing through the Pacific Northwest and far northern California into Wednesday morning.Temperatures in the Lower 48 states on Monday ranged from a low of 7 degrees at Mobridge, S.D., to a high of 100 degrees at Laredo, Texas.On the Net:Weather Underground: http://www.wunderground.com

Thousands flood Haitian streets in protests over high food prices; 1killed Mon Apr 7, 3:44 PM By Jonathan M. Katz, The Associated Press

PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti - Protesters angered by high food prices flooded the streets of Haiti's capital Monday, forcing businesses and schools to close as unrest spread from the countryside.

Witnesses said at least one person was killed by hotel security guards during a protest in the southern city of Les Cayes, where at least three people were killed Friday in food riots and clashes with UN peacekeepers. Police said they were investigating.

Thousands of people marched mostly peacefully past the National Palace in Port-au-Prince. We're hungry, some called out. Others carried posters reading Down with the expensive life! Haitians are particularly affected by food prices that are rising worldwide. Eighty per cent of the population lives on less than US$2 a day. The cost of staples such as rice, beans, fruit and condensed milk has gone up 50 per cent in the past year, while the cost of pasta has doubled. Some can't take the hunger anymore, Rev. Gerard Jean-Juste told The Associated Press. As a priest, I encourage all government officials to do their best to find ways to solve the near-famine situation.The UN World Food Program made an urgent appeal for donations Monday to support its operations in Haiti, the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere. UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon warned last week that the food crisis could threaten Haiti's already fragile security.

Iran begins installing more centrifuges By ALI AKBAR DAREINI, Associated Press Writer APR 8,08

TEHRAN, Iran - Iran has begun installing 6,000 new centrifuges at its uranium enrichment plant in Natanz, state television quoted President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad as saying Tuesday. The U.S. immediately criticized the announcement as an example of Iran's continued defiance of international demands that it suspend uranium enrichment, which can produce fuel for a nuclear reactor or fissile material for a weapon.Today's announcement reflects the Iranian leadership's continuing violation of international obligations and refusal to address international concerns, said Gregory Schulte, the U.S. representative to the Vienna-based International Atomic Energy Agency.Iran already has about 3,000 centrifuges operating at its underground nuclear facility in Natanz, and the U.N. has passed three sets of sanctions against Iran for its refusal to suspend uranium enrichment. Tehran insists its nuclear program is focused on the peaceful production of energy, not the development of weapons as claimed by the U.S. and many of its allies.Iran has not only failed to suspend enrichment, but has chosen to ignore the will of the international community by announcing the installation of new centrifuges, said a spokesman for Britain's Foreign Office on condition of anonymity in line with policy.This is despite the fact that Iran's enrichment program has no apparent civilian purpose, and shows that Iran is making no effort to restore international confidence in its intentions, he said.

French Foreign Minister Bernard Kouchner said Iran's uranium enrichment effort is dangerous and continued sanctions may be necessary against Tehran.Ahmadinejad made Tuesday's announcement as he toured the Natanz facility in central Iran.The president announced the start of the phase of installing 6,000 new centrifuges in Natanz, state television reported.State television also quoted Ahmadinejad as saying that we have reached new achievements in Natanz that he would announce later Tuesday.The president's trip was scheduled to coincide with Iran's National Day of Nuclear Technology, marking the second anniversary of Iran's first enrichment of uranium.Ahmadinejad is widely expected to confirm for the first time Tuesday that Iran has installed hundreds of more sophisticated centrifuges that can enrich uranium faster.

The workhorse of Iran's enrichment program is the P-1 centrifuge, which is run in cascades of 164 machines. But Iranian officials confirmed in February that they had started using the IR-2 centrifuge that can churn out enriched uranium at more than double the rate.Diplomats in Vienna told The Associated Press on Thursday that Iran has assembled hundreds of advanced centrifuges at Natanz.

One diplomat said more than 300 of the centrifuges have been linked up in two separate units in Iran's underground enrichment plant and a third was being assembled. He said the machines apparently are more advanced than the thousands already running underground.But a senior diplomat said that while the new work appeared to include advanced centrifuges, they were not IR-2s.Both diplomats are linked to the IAEA and asked for anonymity because their information was confidential.A total of 3,000 centrifuges is the commonly accepted figure for a nuclear enrichment program that is past the experimental stage and can be used as a platform for a full industrial-scale program that could churn out enough enriched material for dozens of nuclear weapons. Iran says it plans to move toward large-scale uranium enrichment that ultimately will involve 54,000 centrifuges. Associated Press writers George Jahn in Vienna, Austria, and David Stringer in London contributed to this report.

Modern Russia more painful than doom
Louise Evans | April 08, 2008

AFTER living in a cave for five months, cut off from the outside world and without access to email or mobile phones, you'd expect to find more than the weather had changed when you emerged.When members of a Russian doomsday cult came out of a cave southeast of Moscow last week after melting snow caused part of their hillside hovel to collapse as they had waited since November for the world to end, here's what they found. Their hunk o'spunk Russian President Vladimir Putin, who was named Time magazine's 2007 Person of the Year in December, is being replaced next month by a clone called Dmitry Medvedev, who was shoehorned into the Kremlin after a dodgy election. In light of further news updates about anti-Putin demonstrations in St Petersburg and Moscow in November, the assassination in December of former Pakistani prime minister Benazir Bhutto, the February resignation of Fidel Castro as Cuba's president and the demise of Zimbabwe despot Robert Mugabe after 28 years, panic flashed through the doomsday group. Instead of thinking about the end of the world, they were worried about their immediate future.

Who was this Putin mini-me, who walks and talks just like their Ken-doll President and has even been known to answer to Pootie-Poot, George W. Bush's nickname for Russia's answer to gun-toting American hero Charlton Heston? Cave dwellers alarmed that their Pootie-Poot was kaput were calmed when advised that Medvedev would be the grip-and-grin man charged with marauding across the world and monstering democratically elected leaders, those pests who pop up and then disappear after just a few years. Meanwhile, Putin will stay on as prime minister and continue to run Russia, ensuring that foreign companies' assets are sequestered, investigative journalists and spies are killed and the courts support the ruling elite and their cronies. Doomsdayers have been assured Putin won't tighten his authoritarian rule on the country's 141 million population, providing no one mentions the words democracy, free media or Russian mafia. Cave dwellers were also stunned to discover that, in the free world, a black man whose middle name is Hussein is leading the race to the White House. When they asked whether it would be renamed the Black House if Barack Obama became the US president, they were advised by the official government-controlled news agency that Russia was pro-Hillary Clinton. Putin is convinced that once Bush is gone he can get Clinton to lower that defence shield, or at least pay lip service to his missile system.

Negotiators who talked the doomsdayers out of their cave also allayed fears that Putin wanted to start a new cold war with the West. But if global players did not accede to Putin's demands at the NATO summit, Putin might have used his old party trick and started a cold snap by turning off the natural gas and oil that Russia supplies to a quarter of Europe. Doomsdayers were advised to be cautious with loans and savings as the US economy was behaving like Britney Spears. It's overrated, out of control and teetering on the brink of collapse, forcing other world economies into rehab.

Catching up on celebrity gossip, doomsdayers learned that Britain has found a replacement for its long lost queen of hearts, princess Diana. Not Prince William's girlie Kate Middleton, but France's first lady, Carla Bruni-Sarkozy, the new wife of French President Nicolas Sarkozy. Like Diana, Carla is a gorgeous, long-legged fashion horse. The thought of all those frumpy equine English dames and paunchy dandruff-dusted dandies fawning over a non-aristocratic Italian model made the doomsdayers forget that the end of the world was not nigh. One of the few pleasures while living in that leaky cave was chain-smoking and drinking vodka. Who cares about lung cancer and liver failure if the world is about to end? So doomsdayers were disappointed to learn the worldwide trend to ban smoking in public places continued apace while they were holed up. Even nicotine-addicted ally China is falling in behind the self-righteous anti-cigarette West. There was further dismay when they learned their doomsday leader and self-declared prophet, Pyotr Kuznetsov, had been admitted to hospital with a self-inflicted open head wound. It appears Kuznetsov attempted suicide, not because he's a fraud or because the world isn't ending, but because when he checked his inbox after five months he had 2,358,694 emails. More than two million were from Russia and were flogging Viagra, fake luxury goods, Russian brides and money scams. Some things never change. evansl@theaustralian.com.au

Oil prices slip; gas in volatile trading By GEORGE JAHN, Associated Press Writer APR 8,08

VIENNA, Austria - Oil prices inched downward Tuesday after jumping by almost $3 a barrel in the previous session on concerns about falling gasoline supplies and expectations that U.S. interest rates will be cut again. Gasoline prices also fell, but remained volatile ahead of Wednesday report of U.S. oil, gas, diesel and heating oil stocks.Oil prices had climbed Monday as traders bet that future U.S. Federal Reserve rate cuts will weaken the greenback. A weak dollar attracts investors to hard commodities such as oil, which are seen as a hedge against inflation. Also, a falling dollar makes oil cheaper to overseas investors.What we're seeing at the moment is still a very high interest in commodities, driven by non-fundamental issues such as a hedge against the falling U.S. dollar, said Mark Pervan, senior commodity strategist with the ANZ Bank in Melbourne.Light, sweet crude for May delivery slipped by 44 cents to $108.65 a barrel by noon in European electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange. The contract rose $2.86 overnight to settle at $109.09 a barrel on the Nymex, the highest settlement for a front-month contract since March 18.

Still they remain within striking range of last month's trading record of $111.80 a barrel after a swoon that twice brought them briefly below $100. The rise is helped by a growing belief that gasoline supplies are falling as the summer driving season in the U.S. approaches.Last week, the Energy Information Administration said gasoline inventories fell more than expected during the week ended March 28. Also, gasoline demand rose for the first time since January, last week's EIA report showed, raising the prospect that supplies will fall further as Americans drive more during the spring and summer.We're now moving into the gasoline market, so falling gasoline stocks will certainly be supportive of oil prices, Pervan said.Analysts say refiners have cut back on gasoline production due to low profit margins. The rising price of crude means it costs refiners more to turn the raw product into motor fuel.Vienna's JBC Energy, in its daily newsletter said expectations were that newest snapshot of U.S. energy stocks to be released on Wednesday would show a further drawdown in gasoline supplies, with crude stocks swelling by 2.2 million barrels.The prospect that the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries will hold production steady this year also pushed oil prices higher Monday.In other Nymex trading Tuesday, May heating oil futures were essentially steady at $3.0872 a gallon (3.8 liters), while May gasoline prices lost more than 2 pennies to fetch $2.7595 a gallon.Natural gas futures dropped 2.6 cents to $9.765 per 1,000 cubic feet.In London, May Brent crude fell by 54 cents to $106.60 a barrel on the ICE Futures Exchange after rising $2.24 overnight to settle at $107.14 a barrel.Associated Press writer Gillian Wong contributed to this report from Singapore.

US stock futures dip on Alcoa, AMD news By MADLEN READ, AP Business Writer APR 8,08

NEW YORK - Stocks were poised to open lower Tuesday, after downbeat corporate reports from aluminum company Alcoa Inc. and chip maker Advanced Micro Devices Inc. led off the first-quarter earnings season. Alcoa, the world's third-largest aluminum producer, said its first-quarter profit dropped by more than half due to higher costs and a weakening U.S. dollar. The per-share profit of 44 cents was below the average analyst estimate of 48 cents.Investors were also underwhelmed by news from the chip making sector.Sales at Advanced Micro Devices for the three months ended March 29 fell 15 percent from the same period a year ago, due to product delays and tough competition from Intel Corp. AMD's $1.5 billion sales figure was below the average analyst estimate of $1.61 billion, and the company said it plans to eliminate 10 percent of its work force.

Meanwhile, Novellus Systems Inc., another semiconductor maker, lowered its estimate of its first-quarter earnings to a range of 15 cents to 17 cents a share from its previous expectation of 21 cents to 24 cents.The dreary company reports Tuesday arrived ahead of the release of minutes from the Federal Reserve's meeting March 18, when it lowered interest rates by three-quarters of a point to 2.25 percent. Investors are also awaiting a National Association of Realtors report on pending home sales in February.Dow Jones industrial average futures fell 44, or 0.35 percent, to 12,558. Standard & Poor's 500 index futures declined 5.20, or 0.38 percent, to 1,367.00. Nasdaq 100 index futures decreased 8.00, or 0.43 percent, to 1,857.75.On Monday, the major indexes finished narrowly mixed ahead of earnings releases after the bell.Bond prices dipppercent from 3.53 percent late Wednesday.Light, sweet crude fell 40 cents to $108.69 a barrel in premarket electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange.Gold prices fell, while the dollar was mixed against other major currencies.Overseas, Japan's Nikkei stock average fell 1.49 percent. Britain's FTSE 100 slid 0.90percent, Germany's DAX index lost 1.21 percent, and France's CAC-40 dropped 1.08 percent.On the Net:New York Stock Exchange: http://www.nyse.com.Nasdaq Stock Market: http://www.nasdaq.com

Local nuke war would cause world havoc Mon Apr 7, 11:06 PM ET

WASHINGTON - A regional nuclear war would not only be devastating to the countries involved, it would cause havoc worldwide for at least a decade, according to a new analysis. The massive fires resulting from even a limited conflict would blast enough soot into the atmosphere to create an ozone hole over heavily populated areas, researchers warned in a paper in Monday's online edition of Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.A region of depleted ozone over the Antarctic, known as an ozone hole, has been a concern for years as it allows damaging ultraviolet radiation from the sun to reach the Earth's surface. Some chemicals have been banned from use to help eliminate that hole.Unlike the Antarctic, a nuclear-induced ozone hole would affect much of the world, causing damage to plants and animals and adding to skin cancer, eye damage and other effects in millions of people, according to researchers led by Michael J. Mills of the University of Colorado.

Mills' team used complex computer programs to model what would happen in the atmosphere in the event of a war between India and Pakistan in which each detonated 50 Hiroshima-sized nuclear explosives.They calculated that the blasts would send as much as five million metric tons of soot as high as 50 miles into the atmosphere.The soot and the heat from solar radiation would cause a series of chemical reactions that would break down the stratospheric ozone layer that protects Earth from harmful ultraviolet radiation, they said.We would see a dramatic drop in ozone levels that would persist for many years, Mills said in a statement. At mid-latitudes the ozone decrease would be up to 40 percent, which could have huge effects on human health and on terrestrial, aquatic and marine ecosystems.They calculated that a 40 percent ozone decrease would result in a 132 percent increase in light damage to plants and a 213 percent increase in DNA damage associated with skin cancer.The mid-latitudes are the regions between the tropics and the arctic and are home to the largest numbers of people.On the Net:PNAS: http://www.pnas.org

Moses was considered a prophet, but even he knew that a far greater prophet would come forth in God's perfect time. Moses wrote in the book of Deuteronomy.The Lord your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among your own brothers. I will put My words in his mouth, and he will tell them everything I command him. If anyone does not listen to My words that the prophet speaks in My name,I Myself will call him to account.(Deuteronomy 18:15, 18-19).

It was the role of Moses to establish the credentials of the Messiah. Even the Talmudic commentaries, written by Jewish rabbis and sages throughout the ages, declared that the Messiah must be the
greatest of prophets, and nearest in spirit to Moses.

Was Yeshua's life a parallel to Moses? Yes. In fact, no one else in history even came close. Scriptures show events parallel to both lives.Moses and Yeshua fulfilled their roles as prophet, priest,
lawgiver, teacher, and leader.Both spent their early years in Egypt, miraculously protected from those who wanted to kill them.
Moses' family did not initially accept his role as redeemer, nor did Yeshua's family, but later they would.

Both fasted for 40 days and faced spiritual crises on mountain tops.
Moses' brother Aaron, would become the High Priest for the young nation of Israel in the Wilderness. Yeshua's brother, James, would become the leader of the first Believers and Congregation/Church in
Jerusalem.Each was considered the wisest man in his day. Each confronted demonic powers and successfully subdued them.Moses sent 12 spies to explore Canaan. Yeshua sent 12 apostles to reach the world.Moses appointed 70 rulers over Israel. Yeshua anointed 70 disciples to teach the nations.

Moses parted the Red Sea with his outstretched arm.Yeshua calmed the Sea of Galilee.The list of similarities goes on and on. The point to all this is that while Passover began with Moses, it was fulfilled - in Yeshua the Passover Lamb.When a person is in Messiah,. . . he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come! All this is from God, who reconciled us to Himself through Messiah and gave us the ministry of reconciliation(2 Cor. 5:17-18)

Moses writes in Leviticus 17:11 - For the life of a creature is in the blood, and I have given it to you to make atonement for yourselves on the altar; it is the blood that makes atonement for one's soul.May you and your loved ones have a blessed Passover season in Messiah Yeshua.

For He came just as foretold,lived among us, died for our sins,
and lives forever as proof that death has been overcome by the
blood of the Passover Lamb.

European Union members reach agreement on Galileo Navigation System news 07 April 2008

European Union members have reached agreement on the long delayed Galileo satellite project, according to a Bloomberg report which cites a statement issued by German transport minister Wolfgang Tiefensee. The agreement, according to the minister's statement, crosses the final hurdle for the EU, which can now start placing orders for the project by the end of the year.The project still needs to be cleared by the European Parliament in the next few weeks,according to the statement. Once cleared by the parliament, the European Space Agency will then start offering contracts to companies by the end of the year. As a system, Galileo is expected to begin operating by 2013. The accord on Galileo, which is meant to compete with the US Global Positioning System, represents a huge chance for the German aerospace industry, Tiefensee said in his statement, which was issued after meeting with his EU counterparts in Luxembourg. The $7 billion Galaileo project went under EU control after it was abandoned by a private-sector consortium as being unviable.

EU pressuring countries to sign economic deals
April 07, 2008, 18:45

The European Union (EU) has been accused of trying to push Commonwealth countries into signing new trade agreements that will leave them worse off.The accusations have been made at the opening of a conference in Cape Town, where trade representatives of African, Caribbean and Pacific (ACP) countries are taking stock of the current Economic Partnership Agreements (EPA) being negotiated with the EU Commission.ACP Secretary General John Kaputin says countries found themselves under pressure to agree to clauses they believed would harm their economic interests. These included giving EU investors access to service industries and government contracts, as well as greater protection to intellectual property rights.

The race towards the deadline of December 31, 2007 was fraught with panic, confusion and frustration. In the end only 35 out of 77 countries initialed interim or full EPAs. Many more may not have initialed, but were held captive by the possibility of trade disruption that would have followed if they had not initialed, says Kaputin.South Africa was among countries that did not sign an EPA agreement. Many delegates at the conference have agreed that it is now time for the EU to build bridges and try to put a fair deal back on track.

[Comment] It's time Europe joined the dots on migration
08.04.2008 - 09:17 CET | By Graham Watson

EUOBSERVER / COMMENT - The forthcoming French Presidency of the EU has announced plans for an immigration pact to control illegal entry and make it harder for foreigners to live and work in Europe, bringing immigration back to the top of the political agenda once again.President Sarkozy outlined his plans after the Anglo-French summit in London, where he and Gordon Brown agreed to improve cooperation on a range of issues from tighter immigration controls to energy, security and defence. While the two sides will focus on tightening border controls at the French port of Calais, following a series of security lapses, long-term they plan a package of highly restrictive immigration measures which could practically seal off the EU to outsiders.This is par for the course for a President who campaigned to expel 25,000 illegal immigrants, and was later denounced by a coalition of Mayors and NGOs for making deportation the alpha and omega of migration policy and treating migrants like disposable objects. It is also a logical though deeply illiberal sequel to the tougher controls already introduced by the UK's Labour Government.

French ministers have also said they want a common definition of the right of asylum and have backed European Commission proposals that could see asylum seekers shared between EU states. British ministers probably secretly aspire to this too, though media mogul Rupert Murdoch's reaction dissuades them from saying so.Britain and France should be applauded for recognising the need for a European approach to migration in place of the 27 - often contradictory - immigration and asylum systems, yet their heavy handed approach may well prove counterproductive in the long-term.The fact of the matter is that the fight against illegal migration is the only area in which European Union member states have actively cooperated since it became a community competence in 1999, leaving legal migration and development policies up to national governments. This has resulted in some successes, notably improved police and judicial co-operation, an increasing number of readmission agreements with third countries, and the creation of the European Border Control Agency FRONTEX to help police land and sea routes into the EU.Yet by focussing our collective energy exclusively on policing borders and intercepting migrants, as Sarkozy and Brown suggest, Europe risks overlooking the need to address skills shortages, not to mention the factors that lead people to leave their countries in the first place.War, poverty and human rights abuses will ensure that the movement of people from poor and failing states to rich and stable ones continues to grow until properly funded policies to promote democracy and development are put in place.

The EU must recognise that unless its trade policies prevent the easy trade in armaments and allow developing country producers to sell their goods on our markets and so create wealth, jobs and opportunities at home, people from poor countries will continue to vote with their feet. Similarly, unless workers, through legal migration channels, can provide a steady flow of remittances of income to their home countries, investment capital for development in countries of origin will be insufficient to arrest brain drain and reverse the exodus.It is unsurprising that the tide of illegal migrants will keep flowing towards Europe while in EU capitals there is still resistance to sending necessary troops and equipment to some of the world's worst trouble-spots, from Darfur, to Chad and Afghanistan.Likewise, restrictive policies which aim to shut the gates of Fortress Europe on all comers tend to ignore the fact that the European economy, already reliant in large part on migrant labour, is set to lose 20 million workers in the next twenty years if we do not actively increase migration flows.Unlike Canada and Australia which long-ago developed sophisticated strategies to attract the skills their economies need to thrive, the European Union has so far failed to reap the benefits of a skilled and mobile international workforce.The lack of attractive legal migration options to Europe has ensured that 85% of the world's best brains go to America and Australia, put off by Europe's bureaucracy and inflexibility, while most migrants who actually reach our shores have few, if any, qualifications. Clearly the status quo is not working. That is why a coalition of MEPs from across the European Parliament's political spectrum have written a pamphlet calling, in no uncertain terms, for a radical rethink of the way Europe handles migration policy.We believe that putting the emphasis on illegal migration at the expense of a comprehensive, joined-up European Migration Policy fails both to address future demographic and economic challenges and tackle problems in their countries at their source.

Instead of the narrow-minded approach suggested at the Anglo-French Summit Europe we need to agree a far more ambitious package: one which combines the fight against illegal migration with the creation of legal migration channels and development and security policies that actively bolster third countries.Before our ambitions can be achieved, however, parliamentarians and the media alike must commit to engaging in the crucial step of changing public perceptions. For without public confidence and backing, an ambitious global migration policy for Europe is unlikely to see the light of day.The author is head of the Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe (ALDE) in the European Parliament.

MIKE EVANS THE JERUSALEM PRAYER TEAM APR 8,08

Last week it was revealed that despite official denials, Israel is indeed engaged in negotiations with the terrorists of the Palestinian Authority to divide the Holy City. This has long been a key demand of the Palestinians, and the idea of dividing Israel's eternal capital has also been pushed by President Bush, the European Union and the United Nations.I will be in Israel this week and will be meeting with Prime Minister Ehud Olmert. I would like very much to inform him that the Jerusalem Prayer Team members are staying united against Jerusalem being divided. If we do not speak out right now, it may soon be too late to keep Jerusalem united and in the hands of Israel. But I believe this tragedy can be averted if we speak out right now. Add your vote and your voice today.

So far we have already received 148,000 names toward our 200,000 goal. You must understand that the key to Israel withstanding the pressure they are receiving from President Bush and the State Department is knowing that many Americans are on their side. They must know we will not turn our backs on them. They must know we will not sell out their capital for oil. They must know we will not abandon them to appease the terrorists. They can only know this if we tell them. I encourage you to forward this email to everyone on your personal mailing list. Urge your family members and friends to add their voices to this vital petition to keep Jerusalem secure and undivided. Sign the petition and cast your vote to preserve Jerusalem today.
