ZECHARIAH 12:1-5 King James Bible
1 The burden of the word of the LORD for Israel, saith the LORD, which stretcheth forth the heavens, and layeth the foundation of the earth, and formeth the spirit of man within him.
2 Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of trembling unto all the people round about, when they shall be in the siege both against Judah and against Jerusalem.
3 And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it.
4 In that day, saith the LORD, I will smite every horse with astonishment, and his rider with madness: and I will open mine eyes upon the house of Judah, and will smite every horse of the people with blindness.
5 And the governors of Judah shall say in their heart, The inhabitants of Jerusalem shall be my strength in the LORD of hosts their God.

ZECHARIAH 14:1-9 King James Bible
1 Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, and thy spoil shall be divided in the midst of thee.
2 For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled, and the women ravished; and half of the city shall go forth into captivity, and the residue of the people shall not be cut off from the city.
3 Then shall the LORD go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle.
4 And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, and there shall be a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south. 5 And ye shall flee to the valley of the mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azal: yea, ye shall flee, like as ye fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah: and the LORD my God shall come, and all the saints with thee.
6 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the light shall not be clear, nor dark:
7 But it shall be one day which shall be known to the LORD, not day, nor night: but it shall come to pass, that at evening time it shall be light.
8 And it shall be in that day, that living waters shall go out from Jerusalem; half of them toward the former sea, and half of them toward the hinder sea: in summer and in winter shall it be.
9 And the LORD shall be king over all the earth: in that day shall there be one LORD, and his name one.

THE FIRST JUDGEMENT OF THE EARTH STARTED WITH WATER-IT ONLY MAKES SENSE THE LAST GENERATION WILL BE HAVING FLOODING
GENESIS 7:6-12
6 And Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters was upon the earth.
7 And Noah went in, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons’ wives with him, into the ark, because of the waters of the flood.
8 Of clean beasts, and of beasts that are not clean, and of fowls, and of every thing that creepeth upon the earth,
9 There went in two and two unto Noah into the ark, the male and the female, as God had commanded Noah.
10 And it came to pass after seven days, that the waters of the flood were upon the earth.
11 In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.
12 And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights.
GOD PROMISED BY A RAINBOW-THE EARTH WOULD NEVER BE DESTROYED TOTALLY WITH A FLOOD AGAIN.BUT FLOODIING IS A SIGN OF JUDGEMENT.

U.S. East Coast alerted to Hurricane Irene threat
Reuters By Neil Hartnell | Reuters – AUG 24,11


NASSAU (Reuters) - The U.S. put its eastern seaboard on alert for Hurricane Irene on Tuesday as the powerful storm barreled up from the Caribbean on a path that could hit the U.S. coast on the weekend.Even as the first hurricane of the 2011 Atlantic season pounded the Turks and Caicos Islands and the southeast Bahamas with battering winds and rain and dangerous storm surge, coastal residents in Florida and the Carolinas were preparing for Irene's approach.I pray God's blessing on us all, Bahamas Prime Minister Hubert Ingraham said as he urged residents of his Atlantic archipelago nation southeast of Florida to take shelter.Irene is the ninth named storm of the busy June-through-November season and looks set to be the first hurricane to hit the United States since Ike pounded the Texas coast in 2008.It weakened on Tuesday to a Category 1 hurricane on the five-step Saffir Simpson scale of intensity, but could strengthen into a major Category 3 storm with winds over 111 miles per hour (178 km per hour) by Thursday, the Hurricane Center forecasters said.

While warning the entire U.S. East Coast to be on the alert, Federal Emergency Management Agency Administrator Craig Fugate and National Hurricane Center Director Bill Read said it was too early to be certain where Irene would directly hit the coastline.We're going to have a very large tropical cyclone move up the Eastern Seaboard over the next five to seven days, Read said on a conference call in which he spoke along with Fugate.The best guess forecast was that it would approach the coast of the Carolinas on Saturday morning as a major storm of Category 3 or upward, Read said.After that, the already saturated New England region of the East Coast could also be at particular risk for torrential rains, high winds and flooding from Irene, Fugate said. Major eastern cities like Washington and New York could feel some impact from Irene, the forecast indicated.In a separate development, a magnitude 5.9 earthquake struck the U.S. East Coast, shaking Washington, New York and other cities.Irene could put a damper on Sunday's dedication ceremony for the new memorial honoring civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jnr. on Washington's National Mall. Tens of thousands of people, including President Barack Obama, were expected to attend.Forecasts showed Irene posing no threat to U.S. oil and gas installations in the Gulf of Mexico.

SALT HARVEST HALTED

Irene was heading west-northwest over the Turks and Caicos Islands and southeastern Bahamas.At 5 p.m. (2100 GMT), it had top winds of 90 miles per hour and was centered 110 miles east of Great Inagua Island in the southern Bahamas. Forecasters warned that a storm surge up to 13-feet high could wash over parts of the Bahamas.Cruise line Royal Caribbean rearranged itineraries for six ships, skipping two scheduled stops at its Coco Cay island in the Bahamas so staff could prepare and evacuate.
Carnival Cruise Lines changed ports of call or shifted the arrival or departure times at ports for seven of its ships, a spokesman said.Morton Salt shut down its operations on Great Inagua because rain melts the salt cake in its crystallizers, leaving it unable to continue the salt harvest. The company temporarily laid off 100 workers this month after getting more than double the average rainfall in July.We are hoping and praying we don't get any more precipitation from this hurricane, said Glen Bannister, Morton Salt's managing director.In North Carolina, where Irene was forecast to come ashore on Saturday, Governor Bev Perdue urged residents to make sure they had three days worth of food, water and supplies.You may lose water or electrical power during the storm, and grocery stores and other businesses may be closed. Also make sure you know the evacuation routes, Perdue said.Evacuations were to begin on Wednesday for parts of North Carolina's Outer Banks, the stretch of barrier islands and beaches jutting into the Atlantic Ocean. Tourists were ordered to leave some areas.At a hardware store in Charleston, South Carolina, Carlito Resnicki, 29, hauled sheets of plywood to his car to board up his home.I have a wife. ... Mama Bear said go buy plywood, so I came.Irene could still swing farther east away from the U.S. coast. But if it skirts North Carolina's Outer Banks without weakening and then plows northward through the heavily populated mid-Atlantic and New England coasts as a Category 1 or 2 hurricane, It could become one of the ten most damaging hurricanes in history,hurricane expert Jeff Masters of private forecaster Weather Underground wrote in his blog.Obama was briefed about Irene while on vacation at the Massachusetts island of Martha's Vineyard. He signed an emergency declaration on Monday for Puerto Rico after the storm pummeled the U.S. territory with heavy rains and winds. Puerto Rican authorities reported power outages and some flooding, but there were no reports of deaths or injuries.(Additional reporting by Manuel Jimenez in Santo Domingo, Jane Sutton and Tom Brown in Miami, Harriet McLeod in Charleston, S.C., Barbara Liston in Orlando; Writing by Pascal Fletcher; Editing by Christopher Wilson)

Hurricane Irene strengthens on path to U.S. coast
Reuters By Neil Hartnell – AUG 24,11


NASSAU, Aug 24 (Reuters) – Hurricane Irene strengthened on Wednesday as it roared up from the Caribbean on a path that prompted residents along the U.S. east coast to prepare for a possible hit over the weekend.Irene regained force as a Category 2 storm on the five-step Saffir Simpson scale, with top winds of 100 miles per hour (155 km per hour), the U.S. National Hurricane Center said.Irene could become a major hurricane within the next day or so, the center said.Even as the first hurricane of the 2011 Atlantic season pounded the Turks and Caicos Islands and the southeast Bahamas with winds, rain and a dangerous storm surge, people in the Carolinas on the southeastern U.S. coast were getting ready for the storm's approach.

At 2 a.m. EDT, Irene was about 400 miles southeast of Nassau and about 975 miles south of Cape Hatteras in North Carolina.Irene, the ninth named storm of the June-through-November season, looks set to be the first hurricane to hit the United States since Ike pounded the Texas coast in 2008. But forecasts showed it posing no threat to U.S. oil and gas installations in the Gulf of Mexico.Irene had weakened on Tuesday to a Category 1 hurricane but could strengthen into a major Category 3 storm with winds over 111 mph by Thursday, the hurricane center said.The storm is forecast to approach the coast of the Carolinas on Saturday morning. After that, the saturated New England region could be at risk from torrential rains, high winds and flooding from Irene, Federal Emergency Management Agency Administrator Craig Fugate said on Tuesday.Major eastern cities like Washington and New York could feel some impact, the forecasts showed.In North Carolina, Governor Bev Perdue urged residents to ensure they had three days worth of food, water and supplies.Voluntary evacuations were to begin on Wednesday for parts of North Carolina's Outer Banks, a stretch of barrier islands and beaches that are popular summer holiday spots.Irene drenched the northeastern Caribbean islands earlier in the week. The first death from the storm was reported on Tuesday in Puerto Rico, where a woman was swept away.

Heavy rains continued to pelt the U.S. Caribbean territory, causing flooding and mudslides. Nearly 300,000 residents were without electricity and 58,000 were without water.(Additional reporting by Jane Sutton and Tom Brown in Miami, Harriet McLeod in Charleston, S.C., Edwin Barnett in Raleigh, N.C., Barbara Liston in Orlando; Writing by Pascal Fletcher and John O'Callaghan; Editing by Miral Fahmy)

Hurricane Irene Affirms Magic Hurricane Date
LiveScience.com Brett Israel LiveScience.com – Tue Aug 23, 10:44 pm ET


Hurricane watchers circle Aug. 20 on their calendars every year. This is the magic date when hurricane season seems to kicks into high gear.Like clockwork, Hurricane Irene — the Atlantic's first hurricane of 2011 — was born on Aug. 22, later strengthening to a Category 2 hurricane. Last year was another good example of an active storm season ramping up after Aug. 20. All of the 2010's major hurricanes (those of Category 3 or higher) formed after Aug. 20, starting with Danielle on Aug. 21.Aug. 20 seems to be special because around this time, the air and ocean are in just the right state to foster and feed the monster storms. In climate-speak, this time of year is when vertical shear (a change in wind directions with height) in the atmosphere is low enough and sea surface temperatures are warm enough to create big storms.Now, storms can get going before Aug. 20, but this is typically about when they start, said Phil Klotzbach, a hurricane forecaster at Colorado State University in Fort Collins.This year was typical in saving its biggest storm so far for after Aug. 20, but it was unprecedented in the number of tropical storms that fizzled before reaching hurricane strength. The 2011 hurricane season began with eight tropical storms that all failed to become hurricanes before Irene broke the streak. One reason for the flurry of tropical storms is that scientists are naming more tropical storms than in past years, Klotzbach said.

The last time a hurricane season saw so many tropical storms before seeing a hurricane was 2002. That year, Tropical Storm Gustav eventually broke the string by strengthening to a Category 4 hurricane. Gustav struck Louisiana on Sept. 8, killing 112 people.The hurricane forecast from the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) calls for 14 to 19 named storms (which include tropical storms and hurricanes), seven to 10 hurricanes and three to five major hurricanes (Category 3 or higher).Irene is currently a Category 2 storm, with winds of up to 100 mph (160 kph), and is the first serious threat to the U.S. coast in three years. If no hurricanes make landfall in 2011, this three-season lull will be the longest in recorded history.

Once-a-century earthquake rattles East Coast
Reuters By Lily Kuo and Malathi Nayak – Wed Aug 24, 12:28 am ET


WASHINGTON (Reuters) – A strong earthquake rattled the East Coast on Tuesday, sending tremors as far as Canada, damaging well-known buildings in the nation's capital and sending scared office workers into the streets.There were no reports of major damage or serious injuries from the 5.8 magnitude quake, which was centered in Mineral, Virginia, about 90 miles southwest of Washington, D.C.It was the largest quake in Virginia since 1897 and struck at a shallow depth, increasing its potency.
The Pentagon, White House and U.S. Capitol were evacuated in Washington, and thousands of alarmed workers scurried into the streets up and down the East Coast as the lunchtime quake sent items crashing down from store and office shelves.We were rocking, said Larry Beach, who works at the U.S. Agency for International Development in downtown Washington.It was definitely significant.Federal workers were sent home early.Washington's National Cathedral, host to state funerals and memorial services for many U.S. presidents, suffered damage with three spires in the central tower breaking off.The U.S. East Coast does not normally experience quakes as strong as Tuesday's. The U.S. Geological Survey said the quake was of 5.8 magnitude, downgrading an earlier estimate if 5.9.Earthquakes of magnitude 5.5 can cause damage to buildings and other structures.In addition to the Virginia earthquake, there were nine tremors in the area immediately around Cokedale, Colorado, near the border of New Mexico.Today we had two significant earthquakes shake large portions of the country, said David Wald, a geophysicist with the USGS.The Western earthquake, magnitude 5.3, within the last 24 hours, shook roughly four western states, primarily Colorado and New Mexico, but also parts of Kansas, Oklahoma as well as Texas -- large states, but probably experienced by tens of thousands of people,he said.

U.S. CAPITOL SHAKEN

As if a rare strong earthquake were not enough, the East Coast was also on alert for powerful Hurricane Irene which was heading up from the Caribbean and could hit at the weekend.The quake made chandeliers sway in the U.S. Capitol and the floor of the U.S. Senate shook before staff headed for the exits. Some minor damage could be seen in the rotunda, under the dome of the Capitol.Bits of paint and plaster fell from high on the walls and chunks of plaster fell from above a doorway in the Capitol's Statuary Hall. The U.S. Congress is in recess so most members were away.I thought at first somebody was shaking my chair and then I thought maybe it was a bomb, said Senate aide Wendy Oscarson-Kirchner.Phone service was disrupted throughout the region as network congestion blocked cell phone users from making calls.There were also nuclear safety fears when one of four emergency diesel generators at the North Anna nuclear power plant in Virginia lost power due to the quake and automatically halted operations.The plant operated by Dominion Resources was designed to withstand an earthquake of magnitude up to 6.2, a company spokesman said. Dominion reported no major damage to the facility.Three generators were needed to kick in and keep the reactors' radioactive cores cool. A fourth diesel unit failed.In New York, the tremors prompted evacuations of courthouses, City Hall and halted work at the World Trade Center construction site.What a spooky, strange feeling, said Billy Simeonidis, the owner of BareBurger in Brooklyn.You just don't have any control. I don't know how they do it on the West Coast.Control towers at John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York City and Newark Liberty Airport in New Jersey were also evacuated, and flights were grounded briefly in Washington, Philadelphia and New York.The quake was felt as far away as Toronto. Buildings in Boston were evacuated, and some people who experienced swaying offices said they felt their stomachs turn.We see we had shaking from Canada and Maine all the way down to Georgia and in Michigan and Illinois. So this was over about 20 states, said the USGS's Wald.But saturation TV coverage of an East Coast quake that caused little damage drew smirks of amused disbelief from seismic-savvy Californians watching the news.East Coasters freak out, West Coasters roll their eyes,read one headline accompanying a story about Twitter reactions on the Hollywood website The Wrap.com.

Court nixes Palestinian bid on Jerusalem fence route
AFPAFP – AUG 24,11

An Israeli rights group criticised on Tuesday a court decision upholding the route of Israel's West Bank barrier, which cuts off a Palestinian village from its land in an area between Jerusalem and Bethlehem.Residents of Al-Walaja had appealed to Israel's Supreme Court to reroute a portion of the barrier which they say cuts off the village of 2,500 from farming land, a cemetery and a nearby spring.The village straddles the border between east Jerusalem and the West Bank, with a third of its land falling within the Israeli-annexed sector.But Israel's Supreme Court rejected the petition on Monday, saying security concerns outweighed the disturbance to their lives.Ir Amim, an NGO which lobbies for Palestinians and Israelis to share Jerusalem, said the villagers had been placed in an impossible situation by Israel.

The court verdict does not address the question of Walaja because Israel is condemned to rule Walaja unwisely and unfairly, said Daniel Seidemann, a founder of Ir Amim.We have no business ruling it in the first place, he told AFP. We do not provide them services, do not allow them access to the West Bank, do not allow them access to Israel.Chief Justice Dorit Beinish wrote in her decision the barrier in Walaja was one of the last sections around Jerusalem that still needed completion.The geographical proximity between these territories and the Jerusalem municipal area has over the years transformed it into a preferred target destination for terrorists operating in the area who wish to infiltrate the city limits, she wrote.Moving the barrier could also pose a potential threat to passengers on the Tel Aviv-Jerusalem railway, which runs nearby, she said.Israel says the barrier is designed to prevent attacks, but the Palestinians view it as an apartheid wall that carves off key parts of their promised state.When the 709-kilometre (435-mile) barrier is complete, 85 percent of it will have been built inside the occupied West Bank.In a non-binding 2004 judgement, the International Court of Justice called for the dismantling of all parts of the separation barrier built on occupied territory.

Israeli military: Aircraft strike Gaza gunmen
APAP – AUG 24,11


JERUSALEM (AP) — Violence along the Gaza-Israel border heated up on Wednesday, with Israeli airstrikes on militant targets and militant rocket fire at Israel.Israeli media reported that security forces sent down reinforcements to the area. A music festival that was to be held in the southern city of Ashkelon was canceled, conforming with military recommendations against large gatherings in tense security times, the military said.Israeli aircraft killed a militant from Gaza's Islamic Jihad faction before dawn on Wednesday, Hamas security officials said. They later targeted two militants who had fired two mortars at Israel shortly before. No casualties were reported in that airstrike.The Israeli military said the dead militant had smuggled weapons into Gaza and was involved in militant activity in Egypt's Sinai peninsula, near Israel's southern border. It did not elaborate.A militant incursion into Israel from Sinai last week killed eight Israelis. That was followed by Palestinian rocket attacks and Israeli airstrikes that have not stopped despite a cease-fire reached on Sunday.

BENGHAZI, Libya (AP) — They called it Operation Mermaid Dawn, a stealth plan coordinated by sleeper cells, Libyan rebels, and NATO to snatch the capital from the Moammar Gadhafi's regime's hands.It began three months ago when groups of young men left their homes in Tripoli and traveled to train in Benghazi with ex-military soldiers.After training in Benghazi, the men would return to Tripoli either through the sea disguised as fishermen or through the western mountains.They went back to Tripoli and waited; they became sleeper cells, said military spokesman Fadlallah Haroun, who helped organize the operation.He said that many of the trained fighters also stayed in the cities west of Tripoli, including Zintan and Zawiya, and waited for the day to come to push into the capital.Operation Mermaid Dawn began on the night of August 21 and took the world by surprise as the rebels sped into the capital and celebrated in Green Square with almost no resistance from pro-Gadhafi forces.Haroun said about 150 men rose up from inside Tripoli, blocking streets, engaging in armed street fights with Gadhafi brigades, and taking over their streets with check points.He said another 200 men from Misrata.But why did the armed Gadhafi troops melt away when the rebels drove through? Fathi Baja, head of the rebel leadership's political committee, said it was all thanks to a deal cut with the head of the batallion in charge of protecting Tripoli's gates, the Mohammed Megrayef Brigade.

His name was Mohammed Eshkal and he was very close to Gadhafi and his family. Baja said Gadhafi had ordered the death of his cousin twenty years ago.Eshkal carried a grudge in his heart against Gadhafi for 20 years, and he made a deal with the NTC — when the zero hour approached he would hand the city over to the rebels, said Haroun.
Eshkal didn't care much about the revolution, said Haroun.He wanted to take a personal revenge from Gadhafi and when he saw a chance that he will fall, he just let it happen.But Haroun said he still didn't trust Eshkal or the men who defected so late in the game.Haroun said that he didn't trust any of the defectors who left Gadhafi's side so close to August 20.They lived knew his days were numbered so they defected, but in their hearts they will always fear Gadhafi and give him a regard, he said.Haroun said NATO was in contact with the rebel leadership in Benghazi and were aware of the date of Operation Mermaid Dawn.Honestly, NATO played a very big role in liberating Tripoli — they bombed all the main locations that we couldn't handle with our light weapons, said Harouin.Analysts have noted that as time went on, NATO airstrikes became more and more precise and there was less and less collateral damage, indicating the presence of air controllers on the battlefields.

Targeted bombings launched methodical strikes on Gadhafi's crucial communications facilities and weapons caches. An increasing number of American hunter-killer drones provided round-the-clock surveillance as the rebels advanced.Diplomats acknowledge that covert teams from France, Britain and some East European states provided critical assistance.The assistance included logisticians, security advisers and forward air controllers for the rebel army, as well as intelligence operatives, damage assessment analysts and other experts, according to a diplomat based at NATO's headquarters in Brussels. The diplomat spoke on condition of anonymity due to the sensitivity of the issue.Foreign military advisers on the ground provided key real-time intelligence to the rebels, enabling them to maximize their limited firepower against the enemy. One U.S. official, speaking on condition of anonymity to discuss intelligence matters, said the Qatari military led the way, augmented later by French, Italian and British military advisers. This effort had a multiple purpose, not only assisting the rebels but monitoring their ranks and watching for any al-Qaida elements trying to infiltrate or influence the rebellion.Bolstering the intelligence on the ground was an escalating surveillance and targeting campaign in the skies above. Armed U.S. Predator drones helped to clear a path for the rebels to advance.Baja said as the time for Operation Mermaid Dawn came close to execution, NATO began to intensify their bombing campaign at Bab al-Azizya and near jails where weapons were stored and political prisoners were held.And then the people rose up.

EU, U.S. Draft Sanctions Against Syria-European nations and the U.S. have drafted a resolution which seeks an arms embargo and other sanctions on Assad.by Elad Benari Published: 24/08/11, 5:35 AM

European nations and the United States on Tuesday circulated a draft UN Security Council resolution which seeks an arms embargo and other sanctions aimed at stopping the Syrian government’s ongoing crackdown on protesters.The draft was presented after last week it was reported that the U.S., Britain and other European allies were in the process of preparing it.According to a report in The Associated Press, the draft resolution calls for an asset freeze against 23 key Syrian figures including President Bashar Assad, his younger brother Maher, who is believed to be in command of much of the current bloody crackdown, and his millionaire cousin, Rami Makhlouf, who controls the mobile phone network and other lucrative enterprises in Syria.The resolution also calls for an asset freeze against two companies controlled by Makhlouf and would also impose a travel ban on 21 individuals including Makhlouf, but not Assad or his younger brother.The supporters of the sanctions, however, faced immediate opposition from Russia, who has veto power in the Security Council.

According to AP, when asked whether it was the right time to slap sanctions on Syrian President Bashar Assad, Russia’s UN Ambassador Vitaly Churkin told reporters, No. We don’t think so.Last week at the Security Council meeting, the members heard briefings on Syria from UN human rights chief Navi Pillay, the world body’s humanitarian coordinator Valerie Amos and UN political affairs chief Lynn Pascoe.
Pillay later told reporters that the Syrian government might have committed crimes against humanity, adding she had recommended that the council should consider referring Syria to the International Criminal Court in The Hague.The draft resolution presented Tuesday echoes the team’s conclusion, notes Pillay’s recommendation but stops short of ordering Syria to be referred to the court, saying only that those responsible for violence should be held accountable.The resolution “strongly condemns the continued grave and systematic human rights violations by the Syrian authorities, such as arbitrary executions, excessive use of force and the killing and persecution of protesters and human rights defenders, arbitrary detention, enforced disappearances, torture and ill-treatment of detainees, also of children.It demands that Syrian authorities immediately stop human rights violations and the use of force against civilians and allow the full exercise of human rights and fundamental freedoms for its entire population, including rights of freedom of expression and peaceful assembly, and lift restrictions on all forms of media.The proposed resolution calls for an inclusive Syrian-led political process conducted in an environment free from fear and intimidation and aimed at effectively addressing the legitimate aspirations and concerns of Syria’s population.On the arms embargo, the draft would require all countries to ban the sale or transfer of arms and military-related assistance to Syria and would also ban the Syrian government from exporting arms or providing military assistance to other states.AP noted, however, that while the resolution is backed by Britain, France, Germany, Portugal and the U.S., it is likely to face opposition not only from Russia but also from veto-wielding China, and possibly from council members Brazil, India and South Africa.

Syria opposition tries to unite, divisions remain
AP By ZEINA KARAM - Associated Press | AP – AUG 24,11


BEIRUT (AP) — Syria's fragmented opposition took steps toward forming a national council Tuesday, but serious divisions and mistrust among the members prevented them from presenting a unified front against President Bashar Assad's regime more than five months into the country's uprising, participants said.Syria's opposition, fragmented by years of sectarian and ideological tensions, has made unprecedented gains against the regime, but there is no clear leadership or platform beyond the demands for more freedom and for Assad to step down.With Assad's forces cracking down on the protests, the overall death toll has reached 2,200, the United Nations said this week.A group of opposition members have been meeting in neighboring Turkey in recent days, but participants gave conflicting reports about exactly what emerged. Obeida al-Nahhas told The Associated Press that a council had been formed but the details were still being completed; others said there was no council to speak of yet.People are just beginning to form an opposition and so they are treading carefully. This is understandable, said Mahmud Osman, an opposition member at the meeting in Turkey. We don't claim to represent the whole of Syria. But we are talking to everyone and we are trying to build a consensus.The unrest in Syria shows no sign of abating, with both sides of the conflict energized. Protesters pour into the streets every Friday, defying the near-certain barrage of shelling and sniper fire. But the regime is strong as well and in no imminent danger of collapse, setting the stage for what could be a drawn-out and bloody stalemate.Assad has shrugged off broad international condemnation and calls for him to step down, insisting that armed gangs and thugs are driving the violence, not true reform-seekers.

Activists said Tuesday that Syrian security forces killed at least seven people in the central city of Homs on Monday, soon after a U.N. humanitarian team left the area because the security situation was deteriorating.Amateur videos posted online by activists showed crowds of people crowding around cars with the blue U.N. flag, flashing banners that read: We will never stop until we get our freedom.The protesters chanted for freedom and the downfall of the Assad regime.Syria has banned foreign media and severely restricted local coverage, making it nearly impossible to confirm events on the ground.Syria had granted the U.N. team permission to visit some areas to assess humanitarian needs, but activists and a Western diplomat have accused the regime of trying to scrub away signs of the crackdown.Residents and activists said it was quiet until the team left, after which troops opened fire on an anti-government protest, killing four. Gunmen also killed three others elsewhere in Homs, which has become a hotbed of dissent against Assad, human rights groups said.U.N. humanitarian chief Valerie Amos said she was shocked at reports of protesters being killed and injured after the U.N. visit and called on Syrian authorities to ensure that people are allowed to protest peacefully and in safety.The U.N.'s top human rights body voted overwhelmingly Tuesday to demand that Syria end its crackdown and cooperate with an international probe into possible crimes against humanity.

European nations and the United States, meanwhile, circulated a draft U.N. Security Council resolution Tuesday seeking an arms embargo and other sanctions aimed at stopping the crackdown. But they faced immediate opposition from veto-wielding Russia, whose ambassadorr said it was not the right time for sanctions.Also Tuesday, the U.S. State Department said Ambassador Robert Ford visited the country's south, while denying that he received prior permission from the Syrian government. An official at the U.S. Embassy described it as a short and routine trip to the village of Jassem near the southern city of Daraa. The area has been witnessing large anti-government protests.State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland said Ford informed the Syrian government after the visit and explained that he did not ask for permission in advance because they haven't been approving any visits, by anybody, anywhere. She said he stayed only four hours in order not to make life difficult for the residents.A trip last month by the U.S. and French ambassadors to the central city of Hama to express support for protesters drew swift condemnation from the Syrian government, which said the unauthorized visits were proof that Washington was inciting violence in the Arab nation.The Syrian foreign minister then warned both ambassadors not to travel outside the capital without permission.The Local Coordination Committees and the London-based Observatory for Human Rights, two activist groups with a wide network of sources on the ground, reported that security forces stormed several villages in the southern and northern parts of the country, arresting scores on Tuesday.AP Writer Suzan Fraser contributed to this report from Ankara, Turkey.Zeina Karam can be reached on http://twitter.com/zkaram

Islamic Jihad Enraged Over Death of Commander, Vows Revenge-The Islamic Jihad terrorist group is enraged over the death of a key Gaza commander in an IDF air strike, and vows revenge.by Chana Ya'ar Published: 24/08/11, 11:20 AM

The Islamic Jihad terrorist group is enraged over the death of a local commander in its Gaza division following an air strike overnight by the Israel Air Force.An IDF spokesperson confirmed that 34-year-old Ismail al-Asmar was killed in a targeted air strike on a car in which he was traveling late Tuesday night. Two other terrorists in the car were wounded, according to local medical sources. They were traveling near Rafiah, the city that straddles the Gaza border with Egypt.Senior Islamic Jihad member Ahmad al-Mudallal told reporters in response to Al-Asmar's assassination, “This crime was meant to underline that Israel only understands the language of blood and terror.We will take action against the enemy in a language that it understands, the language of blood, he vowed.We will not ignore the crimes it commits against our people.Al-Asmar was a local leader in Rafiah, according to the IDF spokesperson, who added that he was involved in smuggling weapons and sought to advance military operations in the Sinai Peninsula. She added that Lately there have been several attempts by Gaza terrorists to carry out attacks in Sinai, and that was what this operative was involved in.The air strike came in retaliation for days of missile and mortar attacks on southern Israel and is part of the effort to silence the rocket fire against Israel's citizens.Two other terrorists also were targeted early Wednesday morning by IAF fighter jets in two separate locations in Gaza attempting to launch a rocket attack at southern Israel. A direct hit was confirmed in both cases and all Israeli personnel returned to base unharmed.It was not clear to which terrorist group the operatives belonged.Later in the morning, Gaza terrorists fired two mortar shells from two separate locations at the Eshkol Regional Council district. The two shells exploded in two areas, causing light damage but no physical injuries.

Residents of southern Israel's Gaza Belt region have been advised to remain within a 15 seconds' range of any safe space or bomb shelter today (Wednesday, Aug. 24). Those who wish to reach the Home Front Command for any reason may dial 1207. The website, which contains specific information on how to deal with a rocket or mortar attack, and how to determine the safest space in your home, may be reached by clicking here.Directives that were issued following the so-called ceasefire publicized by the Gaza terrorist groups have been canceled, Home Front Command officials emphasized.

Hamas’ Definition of Ceasefire – Two Mortar Shell Attacks-Hamas continued to uphold its version of a new ceasefire by firing two mortar shells at a Gaza Belt community Wednesday.by Tzvi Ben Gedalyahu Published: 24/08/11, 8:14 AM

Hamas continued to uphold its version of a new ceasefire Wednesday morning by firing two mortar shells at a Gaza Belt community.One of the mortars exploded inside the Jewish town, but no injuries or damage was reported. The second shell hit an open area.The IDF spotted and targeted the terrorists who launched the mortars almost immediately. Hits were confirmed, IDF spokesmen said, and one of the terrorists was killed. The mortar attacks were launched from two separate locations in northern Gaza.If Wednesday morning's attacks were carried out against Hamas’ orders, they show the inability of Hamas to control Gaza. On the other hand, if Hamas coordinated the firing of the mortar shells, the international community may not be able to continue to turn a blind eye. Israel filed a formal complaint Tuesday to the United Nations following continued rocket attacks from Gaza.This week’s announcement by Hamas of a ceasefire was in line with numerous statements in the past of a cessation of hostilities, only to be followed by what usually are short-range Kassam rocket and mortar shell attacks.The firing at Israeli communities often is carried out by other terrorist groups, some of them rivals of Hamas and others working in coordination with the terrorist organization.One example is the Salahuddin Brigades, the armed wing of the Popular Resistance Committees (PRC) that announced a temporary halt to firing rocket fire. The PRC ostensibly is independent of Hamas but is funded and supported by it, according to the IDF.Abu Ataya, spokesman for the PRC, said Tuesday that the temporary halt did not mean a ceasefire and that resistance would continue.

Former US finance chief says euro is breaking down
Today AUG 24,11 @ 09:23 By Andrew Rettman


Alan Greenspan, the former chairman of the US federal reserve, has said the eurozone is breaking apart due to variations between economies in the north and south of Europe.Speaking during a question-and-answer session at the Innovation Nation Forum in Washington on Tuesday (23 August), the 85-year-old economist said: The euro is breaking down and the process of its breaking down is creating very considerable difficulties in the European banking system. He added: That stuff [eurozone country bonds held by banks] has always been thought of as the ideal collateral and now it’s getting highly questionable.Greenspan explained that northern countries, such as Germany and Finland, have a culture of budgetary discipline while southern nations, such as Greece, historically consume more than they produce and build up debt.The problem is that there is a growing cleavage in the economic and analytical and banking circles as to whether the euro, which is the crucial issue here, should be 17 countries with very significantly different cultures ... That cannot go on, he said. The general feeling out there is of a lull before the storm.Greenspan's remarks - widely reported by financial newswires - saw the euro dip against the dollar and the cost of German goverment bonds, viewed as a safe haven, tick upward.

His comments came out the same day as Spain moved a step closer to the northern model.Opposition leader Mariano Rajoy told MPs at an emergency meeting of the Spanish parliament on Tuesday that his Popular Party will back government proposals to insert borrowing limits into the country's constitution. My parliamentary group is ready to support the initiative and facilitate its implementation,he said. MPs also voted in an extra €5 billion of savings by - amid other measures - switching to generic drugs in the health service.The constitution move follows a similar pledge by Italy after Madrid and Rome's cost of borrowing shot up last month.Eurozone leaders on 21 July gave the green light to a second bailout package for Greece and new bond-buying powers for its crisis-fund, the EFSF, in a bid to calm markets. But the deal - which allows lending countries to ask Greece for collateral where appropriate - is proving hard to implement.Finnish Prime Minister Jyrki Katainen at a party conference in Tampere on Tuesday said he is willing to modify his request for Greece to put up to €600 million in an escrow account as a guarantee. But he refused to drop the plan despite criticism from Austria and the Netherlands. Our responsibility is to seek a solution which will be acceptable and tolerable to other eurozone nations, he said.Austrian finance minister Maria Fekter on Tuesday indicated that Vienna will block the Finnish deal because it increases costs for fellow lenders. Many countries reject the solution that Finland negotiated for itself to the disadvantage of all others ... If there is collateral for one country, then all others must be treated the same way too, she told press in the Austrian capital.Germany has also being dragged into the collateral dispute after a senior member of Chancellor Angela Merkel's CDU party said Berlin should seek guarantees. Several states are making big efforts to service their debt. This must be honored. But to keep up those efforts in the long term, collateral is needed, labour minister and CDU deputy chairman Ursula von der Leyen said on German TV.Eurozone capitals are currently in talks on collateral at expert level amid speculation that leaders will need to call another summit to reach agreement.

Glenn Beck in Caesarea: Love the Jewish People as They Are-At Beck’s Caesarea event, Rabbi Riskin called him a deeply patriotic American, a true friend of Israel.by Fern Sidman, A7 New York Published: 24/08/11, 4:06 AM

The debate over whether former FOX News talk show host and Conservative commentator Glenn Beck is good for the Jews or bad for the Jews goes on in advance of his Restoring Courage rally to be held in Jerusalem on Wednesday afternoon.Moshe Feiglin, head of the Jewish Leadership faction inside the Likud, recently wrote.I must admit that when a friendly non-Jew starts to quote the Bible, I get a bit nervous. It is not just the long history of anti-Semitism that has developed a genetic mutation in the noses of Jews, giving them great sensitivity to anything that smells of Christianity - but also my own personal experience with avowed lovers of Israel and the settlers who took great pains to mask their Christian motives.But David Ha’Ivri, head of the Shomron (Samaria) Liaison Office, rejected the criticism of Beck on Tuesday, saying he is a unique Gentile who loves Israel and Jews.Glenn Beck is one of those unique gentiles who appreciates the Jewish people and our national, historical and theological goals, Ha’Ivri said. His agenda is out in the open and very clear: he wishes us well as the Jewish people preserving our Torah culture on our Holyland.However, in his pre-rally event held for 3,000 mostly American Christians at the Roman amphitheater in Caesarea on Sunday, Beck did not show any indication that he knows of the controversy he caused and simply told the world to not only love Israel but love the Jewish people as they are.Declaring that the entire world is reentering the age of miracles of God, he received thunderous applause when he said, While there may not be a political solution, the good news is the G-d of Israel ain’t running for office.

Simultaneously broadcast to over 80 countries throughout the world and close to 1,200 viewing parties, Beck said, Let the Jewish people know, no matter what our governments may say, we are not our governments, we stand with you. We bring truth, we bring peace, we bring support, we bring comfort.Joining Beck on stage were Pastor John Hagee, founder and president of the Christians United For Israel (CUFI), American born Rabbi Shlomo Riskin, Chief Rabbi of Efrat, David Barton, world-renowned historian and Dr. Mike Evans, award-winning journalist and New York Times bestselling author who has sold over 23 million books.Providing musical entertainment for the evening was Grammy nominated R&B/soul/gospel singer Vernessa Mitchell, who was joined by Israeli singers and musicians.The Jews are still the apple of G-d’s eye, still the chosen people, still the covenant people, declared Pastor Hagee as he took the podium. He drew an analogy with the late president John F. Kennedy’s Ich bin ein Berliner speech, when he announced Ani Yisraeli (I am an Israeli). He then led the rally participants in chants of: I am an Israeli! Rabbi Shlomo Riskin, formerly of the Lincoln Square Synagogue on Manhattan's upper west side, spoke of Jewish appreciation for the support of the Christian pro-Israel community, and in particular that of Glenn Beck, who, Riskin said, is a deeply patriotic American, a true friend of Israel.Lauding the stoic character of the Christian supporters of Israel, Rabbi Riskin said, We are not alone. We are Jews and not Christians.You Christians, nevertheless, have the courage to love us in our otherness. We are profoundly grateful for your courage to love us and stand with us.

Prior to the rally in Caesarea, Beck had toured the Samaria (Shomron) region, providing support to the communities there with a special visit to the town of Itamar, the site of the barbaric murder of five members of the Fogel family by Arab terrorists in March of this year.Said Beck on his radio program broadcast from Israel, “I went to Itamar in Judea and Samaria; our cameras were the first to be allowed into the home. It is empty now and they are gone but they couldn’t get all of the blood off the walls. I will tell you, this was one of the most horrific, bloodiest massacres I could imagine. It was horrifying, horrifying.And yet in that community, profound hope. If you stand in their backyard, you can see the two mountains: The Mountain of Blessing and the Mountain of Curse. It is scriptural. Which do you choose? The mountain of blessing or curse. And this community has both.
I can’t believe what people go through here in Israel, and the world stays silent. The media is distorting and lying, lying to you. Lying to you. And it is important that you know it.Arab Knesset members have warned of possible violence on Wednesday as Beck holds his Restoring Courage rally at the Southern Wall excavation sites near the Temple Mount, an event expected to garner an audience of over 2,000 at the Davidson Center in Jerusalem.Arutz Sheva reported that Hadash MK Muhammad Barakei said, There are enough racists in Israel without importing them from the US. The lessons from Ariel Sharon’s visit to the Temple Mount apparently haven’t been learned. This event isn’t for building coexistence, but to spark fires in a sensitive location ahead of the United Nations vote on a Palestinian state in September. There is a danger that the event will lead to people being harmed, and the police should have prevented it.MK Ahmed Tibi (UAL-Ta’al) called Beck a bizarre, conservative, neo-fascist comedian who is motivated by a hatred of Islam. He also accused MK Danny Danon (Likud), who is involved in Beck’s event, of “dancing to Beck’s flute-playing and rejoicing to every outrageous word against Arabs and Muslims.Beck advised his critics to watch the event before casting judgment. He said that when he held his Restoring Honor event at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, DC, last August, people said he would desecrate the site with what they thought would be a right-wing political rally, but it ended up being nothing of the kind.
Jerusalem is an example of coexistence working. You can’t deny truth, he said.

Activist: Rejecting Beck, Evangelicals Would be Suicidal-Israel is in no position to reject the friendship of Evangelical Christians, says a Land of Israel activist.
by David Lev Published: 24/08/11, 12:07 AM


The debate on the intentions of Glenn Beck and other Christian evangelicals rages on, and Dr. Gadi Eshel, a Land of Israel activist, told Arutz 7 Tuesday that he did not believe that Beck's intentions were improper and rejecting the friendship of evangelicals could cause anti-Semitism.Eshel was responding to comments by Jerusalem City Council member Mina Fenton Monday, who voiced vociferous opposition to Beck's appearance in Jerusalem on Wednesday, saying that his rally was designed to encourage missionary activity. Eshel told Arutz 7 that Christians like Beck supported Israel because they were strong believers in the Bible, and not out of missionary reasons.The basic belief of [evangelical, ed.] Christians like Beck is that the Torah [Pentateuch] and Tanach [Bible] are divine in nature and precede the Christian Gospels. This is different than the beliefs of traditional Christians, like Roman Catholics, and even Episcopalians, who participate in boycotts against Israel, he said.As such, Eshel said, rejecting the friendship offered unconditionally by Beck and evangelicals in general would be the ultimate in ingratitude.Such ingratitude would be an act of suicide, he said.This could cause great damage potentially. The paranoia and automatic negative reaction has the potential to cause a great wave of anti-Semitism.With all the concerns about the rise of radical Islam and the isolation of Israel even by the U.S., Eshel says, spitting at and rejecting Israel's most loyal friends would truly be an act of suicide.
