New pope opens Holy Week at Vatican on Palm Sunday

By FRANCES D'EMILIO | Associated Press – 29 mins ago MAR 24,13

VATICAN CITY (AP) — Pope Francis celebrated his first Palm Sunday Mass in St. Peter's Square, encouraging people to be humble and young at heart as he promised to go to a youth jamboree Brazil this summer, while the faithful enthusiastically waved olive branches and braided palm fronds.The square overflowed with some 250,000 pilgrims, tourists and Romans eager to join the new pope at the start of solemn Holy Week ceremonies, which lead up to Easter, Christianity's most important day.
Keeping with his spontaneous style, the first pope from Latin America broke away several times from the text of his prepared homily to encourage the faithful to lead simple lives.At the end of the two-hour Mass, Francis took off his red vestments, leaving only the white cassock and skull cap, and climbed into an open-topped popemobile to circle through the enthusiastic crowd. He leaned out to shake hands, kissed and patted the heads of infants passed to him by bodyguards, and often gave children the thumbs-up sign.
His security detail seemed to be reluctantly dealing with this get-close-to-the-people pontiff, scrambling around the vehicle to pick up this child or that one. At one point, the chief bodyguard, Domenico Giani, was sent back to the mother of a child he had greeted to convey a message from the pontiff, and the ever-tense Giani broke into a smile after his mission was accomplished.Francis even climbed down from the vehicle, kissed a woman in the crowd and chatted briefly with her, and another man in the crowd leaned over a barrier to squeeze the pontiff on a shoulder — an unheard of familiarity in the previous pontificate of the reserved Benedict XVI.In keeping with his stress on giving examples of humility, Francis kissed the hand of an elderly woman who had outstretched an arm to him."There is no doubt that there will be a new spring for the church, a renewal" with this pope, said Sister Emma, an Argentine nun in the crowd.Palm Sunday recalls Jesus' entry into Jerusalem but its Gospel also recounts how he was betrayed by one of his apostles and ultimately sentenced to death on a cross.Recalling the triumphant welcome into Jerusalem, Francis said Jesus "awakened so many hopes in the heart, above all among humble, simple, poor, forgotten people, those who don't matter in the eyes of the world."Francis then told an off-the-cuff story from his childhood in Argentina. "My grandmother used to say, 'children, burial shrouds don't have' pockets'" the pope said, in a variation of "you can't take it with you."Since his election on March 13, Francis has put the downtrodden and poor at the center of his mission as pope, keeping with the priorities of his Jesuit tradition. His name - the first time a pope has called himself 'Francis' - is inspired by St. Francis of Assisi, who renounced a life of high-living for austere poverty and simplicity to preach Jesus' message to the poor.Francis presided over the Mass at an altar sheltered by a white canopy on the steps of St. Peter's Basilica.Cardinals, many of them among the electors who chose him to be the Roman Catholic church's first Latin American pope, sat on chairs during the ceremony held under hazy skies on a breezy day. He quoted from Benedict when he told the cardinals that while they are "princes" of the church, their leader is the crucified Christ, a further admonition against attachment to temporal power.The present and past pope, who retired last month as pontiff in a 600-year break with tradition, met on Saturday at the papal retreat in Castel Gandolfo, where Benedict is staying until a former convent on the grounds of Vatican City can be readied for his residence. It was Francis' first meeting with his predecessor since his election, and both men are presumed to have discussed challenges facing both managing the Vatican's often creaky bureaucracy and shoring up faith among Catholics worldwide.In his homily, Francis said Christian joy "isn't born from possessing a lot of things but from having met" Jesus. That same joy should keep people young, he said."Even at 70, 80, the heart doesn't age" if one is inspired by Christian joy, said the 76-year-old pontiff.Francis said he was joyfully looking forward to welcoming young people to Rio de Janiero for the Catholic Church's World Youth Day. So far, that is the first foreign trip on the calendar of Francis' new papacy. "I'm coming in July," Francis said in remarks after Mass from the esplanade of the basilica.During Mass, at the point when the Gospel recounts the moment of Jesus' death, many faithful knelt on hard cobblestones paving the square, and Francis knelt on a wooden kneeler.A few young olive trees were inserted in dirt placed around the central obelisk in the square.
Holy Week will see at least one break from tradition with this new papacy. Instead of washing priests' feet in a symbolic gesture of humility on Holy Thursday, Francis will wash the feet of young inmates at a juvenile detention center in Rome. Other appointments in public will include the Way of the Cross procession at the Colosseum on Good Friday night. Next Sunday, Francis will celebrate Easter Mass in the square.
Francis seemed to hold up well, although when riding in the popemobile, he wobbled a bit when he took his hands off the grab bar to wave to the crowd.At the end of Palm Sunday's service, Francis made his first foray into delivering greetings in various languages, with brief words in French, English and German.

03/20/2013 VATICAN INSIDER

Could the Vatican have a new Secretary of State after Easter?

Cardinals attend the mass for the inauguration of Francis' pontificate

Now that Francis has been enthroned, Bergoglio will soon be making his first appointments

Marco Tosatti vatican city Pope Francis has confirmed – pro tempore – all heads and secretaries of Congregations “donec aliter provideatur”, until it is decided otherwise. The statement released made no mention of the Secretary of State, Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone, but an explanation was issued stating that the announcement concerned him as well. Reliable Vatican sources say Pope Francis intends to choose his closest collaborator quickly, after Easter. Tarcisio Bertone will turn 79 in December and it seems only logical that he should leave the position he held as Benedict XVI’s right hand man, amid controversies and divisions.

These sources also mention an Italian member the diplomatic corps as the Argentinean Pope’s potential number two man. The current Substitute, Angelo Becciu and the Prefect of Propaganda Fide, the former nuncio Filoni, seem to be excluded as possible candidates because of their involvement in the rifts and internal struggles that have tainted Bertone’s management of the Secretariat of State. Pope Francis would apparently prefer to start with a clean slate and a new Secretary of State.The Church is not short of possible candidates, starting with Archbishop Piero Parolin, Apostolic Nuncio to Venezuela. Archbishop Celestine Migliore, the Pope’s current ambassador in Warsaw who represented the Holy See at the UN is another potential future collaborator of the Pope. Both have close ties with the Dean of the College of Cardinals, Angelo Sodano, who was Secretary of State under John Paul II for many years and also under Benedict XVI for a period of time, before Bertone was appointed as his substitute.But the list goes on. In Paris there’s Mgr. Luigi Ventura (from Brescia, Italy), a follower of the Casaroli school of thought. He has a very respectable résumé, with stints in Burkina Faso, Chile, Canada and France. Then there’s Giacomo Guido Ottonello who was first Nuncio to Panama and now Ecuador, where since 2005 he has had the difficult task of mediating between the Church and an openly anti-clerical government. He has a deep knowledge of Latin America. Finally, we must not forget the former Nuncio to Brazil, Mgr. Lorenzo Baldisseri, whom Benedict XVI appointed Secretary of the Congregation for Bishops and Secretary of the College of Cardinals in the Conclave, in 2012. There are voices going round about Pope Francis wanting to create him a cardinal.
Having received the white zucchetto from him (it is the Secretary of the College of Cardinal’s job to hand this to the Pope), the newly-elected Pope apparently placed his red cardinal’s biretta on the secretary’s head. This is a tradition Pope’s have had for the last century and is not indicative of any definitive decision.
It is likely, however, that both the Substitute Secretary of State, Archbishop Angelo Becciu and the Pope’s “foreign affairs minister”, Mgr. Dominique Mamberti, will hang on to their positions for a period of time, under Francis’ reign. They will probably be substituted at a later date.

Church says no marriage for straight couples until gay couples can wed too

The Green Street United Methodist Church in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, is taking bold action in the fight for equality. From their press release:

Public Statement on Marriage, Standing in Solidarity with LGBTQ members. Winston-Salem, NC – Members of the Leadership Council of Green Street United Methodist Church published a Public Statement on Marriage at a Press Conference on March 17, 2013 at 2 p.m. in the Sanctuary of Green Street UMC, 639 S. Green Street, Winston-Salem, NC 27101.On the matter of same-sex marriage, Green Street UMC sees injustice in the legal position of state government and the theological position of our denomination. North Carolina prohibits same-sex marriage and all the rights and privileges marriage brings. The Leadership Council has asked that their ministers join others who refuse to sign any State marriage licenses until this right is granted to same- sex couples. Because the United Methodist Church prohibits its pastors from conducting same- sex weddings, excluding gay and lesbian couples from the holy sacrament of marriage, the Leadership Council has asked the pastor to refrain from conducting wedding ceremonies in our sanctuary for straight couples, until the denomination lifts its ban for same-sex couples.Green Street UMC is presently the only Reconciling Congregation in the Western North Carolina Conference. With a growing number of LGBTQ members, Green Street seeks to be a public witness to its community, Conference and denomination.

In an interview with the United Methodist News Service, the Rev. Kelly P. Carpenter had this to say:

“I do not see it as an act of exclusion for straight couples, but an invitation for all people to be in solidarity with those who are excluded,” said the Rev. Kelly P. Carpenter, the church’s senior pastor, in a pastoral letter. “Some may think it to be a sacrifice made by straight couples, but I think a better way to see it is the creation of a level playing field in one sacred space.”

As you might imagine, the church leadership's position is not without controversy:

But the Rev. Thomas Lambrecht, the vice president and general manager of the unofficial evangelical caucus Good News, said he thinks it is possible Green Street may still run afoul of church law even though he is uncertain whether the point of law has been litigated. Lambrecht has argued cases before the United Methodist Judicial Council, the denomination’s top court. “If the blessings could be construed as celebrating homosexual unions, then that is a chargeable offense,” Lambrecht said. “But I don’t know if that issue has been litigated.”

Let's hope more church leaders heed the call to action and start standing up for equality. In the meantime, three cheers for the Rev. Kelly P. Carpenter and the Green Street United Methodist Church!

EU chief spurring negotiations on Cyprus deal

By DON MELVIN | Associated Press – 1 hr 4 mins ago MAR 24,13

BRUSSELS (AP) — A top European official is leading a high-level meeting Sunday afternoon in a last-ditch effort to help Cyprus come up with a plan necessary for a 10 billion euro bailout loan that would save it from bankruptcy.The day of talks could prove critical — not only for the future of the small island country, but also for the 17-nation eurozone. If Cyprus or its banks were to collapse, officials fear that a lack of confidence could spread to other countries that use the euro, triggering higher borrowing costs or capital flight from those countries.Cyprus is racing to meet a Monday deadline to come up with a plan to raise 5.8 billion euros ($7.5 billion) in order to get the bailout from the other European countries that use the single currency, as well as from the IMF.Cyprus has "to fulfill a difficult mission to save the Cypriot economy and avert a disorderly default threatening the economy if there is no final deal for the loan agreement," government spokesman Christos Sylianides said in a written statement.Cypriot President Nicos Anastasiades and Finance Minister Michalis Sarris were flying to Brussels, Sylianides said. Anastasiades was to be in constant contact throughout the negotiations in Brussels with party leaders who would be in the presidential mansion in Nicosia, he said.An EU spokesman said European Council President Herman Van Rompuy would lead the meeting, with Anastasiades and European Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso attending. The Council is the gathering of 27 EU heads of state and government; the Commission is the EU's executive arm.

Van Rompuy's role will not be to reach a final agreement, but to facilitate efforts to find a solution, spokesman Preben Aamann said. Any new proposal would have to be approved Sunday evening by the Eurogroup, the gathering of finance ministers from the 17 EU countries that use the euro currency.

The IMF, European Central Bank and European Commission will then determine whether any plan put forward by Cyprus meets the requirement that Cyprus' debt, including any new bailout loan, be sustainable over the long run.To avoid bankruptcy or the collapse of its banking system, Cyprus needs significantly more than the 10 billion euros the international creditors are willing to lend it. For that reason, the country must somehow raise — and not through borrowing — the additional money.The original plan, agreed to in marathon negotiations, called for a one-time "levy" on all bank depositors in Cypriot banks. The proposal ignited fierce anger among Cypriots and failed to garner a single vote in the Cypriot Parliament.German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble underlined that time was of the essence. The European Central Bank says it will stop providing emergency funding to Cyprus' banks after Monday if no new plan is in place.

"Cyprus will go down a tough path — either way. But that's not the consequence of European stubbornness but of a business model that no longer works," he said.Following the Van Rompuy meeting, Anastasiades will meet with Christine Lagarde, the managing director of the International Monetary Fund, and Mario Draghi, president of the European Central Bank, Cypriot spokesman Nikos Christodoulides said.______

Cyprus MPs pass bank laws, start bailout talks

23.03.13 @ 09:28

BRUSSELS - Cyprus edged back from the brink of bankruptcy on Friday (22 March) after MPs agreed to a series of emergency reforms in a bid to avoid financial meltdown and a traumatic exit from the euro.
Facing a Monday deadline (25 March) to agree on a rescue package before the European Central Bank withdraws its emergency lending programme from Cypriot banks, MPs adopted legislation to restructure the country's fragile banking sector by giving the government the power to split up institutions into 'good' and 'bad' banks.Cyprus will also set an unwanted precedent by becoming the first eurozone country to introduce capital controls. Limits on bank withdrawals and transfers of funds will come into place when Cyprus' banks open for business on Tuesday (26 March).The controls are an attempt to avoid a run on the country's fragile banks, whose balance sheets amount to around eight times the size of the island's economy, after a week of lockdown.MPs also voted to create a solidarity fund to pool state assets.After three days of talks with Russian government officials in Moscow failed to deliver a promise of new funding, Cyprus has been forced to refocus its attention on an EU bailout.Despite MPs decisively rejecting the EU's €10 billion package on Tuesday (19 March) amid large public protests, EU leaders have refused to increase the size of the loan.
Dutch finance minister Jeroen Dijsselbloem, who chairs the Eurogroup of the 17 finance ministers who countries use the euro, warned that Cyprus would not be able to repay a bigger loan. "Anything above €10 billion would not allow them to make a restart," he said.Deputies in the 56-member House of Representatives will reconvene on Saturday and are set to vote on a revised deposit levy expected to fund the bulk of a €7 billion contribution by Cyprus as a condition of its €10 billion bailout package.Plans to raise €5.8 billion via a 6.75 percent hit on savings between €20,000 and €100,000 and a 9.9 percent levy on deposits over €100,000, led to Cypriot MPs rejecting the initial bailout offer by eurozone finance ministers.
However, while the proposal to be voted Saturday is set to exempt all savings below €100,000 in conformity with EU rules on deposit guarantees, it could see big deposits facing a levy of up to 15 per cent.
Finance ministers will then meet in Brussels on Sunday (24 March) with a view to reaching agreement on a rescue package. The meeting, which EU officials warn could last well into Monday morning, will also be attended by IMF boss Christine Lagarde.For their part, European Council President Herman van Rompuy and European Commission counterpart Jose Barroso shelved next week's EU summit with Japan to focus on the Cypriot crisis.In a statement, the EU leaders said that "the on-going efforts to find a solution for the financial situation of Cyprus require our presence in Brussels."

Bank of America: Only ECB can contain Cyprus exit fallout

22.03.13 @ 21:09

By EUOBSERVER

Bank of America-Merrill Lynch counts on the eurozone to bail out Cyprus. But in case Cyprus exits the euro, "the shock would be contained geographically and in magnitude" only if the European Central Bank steps in and protects other southern euro-countries with cheap loans and by buying up their bonds.

Severe U.S. storm brings heavy snow, baseball-sized hail

By Mary Wisniewski | Reuters – 14 hrs ago MAR 24,13

By Mary Wisniewski

CHICAGO (Reuters) - A major early spring storm brought heavy snow, severe thunderstorms and floods as it moved east across the United States on Saturday, closing highways, forcing flight cancellations and causing a pileup involving dozens of vehicles.The weather system forced the cancellations of more than 100 flights in and out of Denver International Airport on Saturday and blowing and drifting snow closed several roads in Colorado, including Interstate 70 in both directions east of Denver to the Kansas state line."Travel on the eastern plains is strongly discouraged," said Mindy Crane, spokeswoman for the Colorado Department of Transportation. "It is snowing half an inch an hour with sustained winds of 25 miles an hour with gusts up to 40 miles an hour."A chain-reaction crash involving some 50 vehicles and at least four tractor-trailers shut down Interstate 25 about 30 miles north of Denver for several hours on Saturday, the Colorado State Patrol said in a statement. A tanker involved in the accident burst into flames.Several injured people were taken to the hospital but no fatalities were reported, police said.Kyle Fredin, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service, said some counties in far eastern Colorado had seen a foot of snow by mid-afternoon.
Snowfall accumulations in the Denver metropolitan area could top 10 inches, with higher amounts in the foothills west of the city, he said.The snow was expected to move east to Kansas City, St. Louis, Indianapolis and Columbus, Ohio, over the next 24 hours, before moving into the mid-Atlantic states, Kines said.Rough weather also was forecast in the Gulf Coast region from Florida to eastern Texas throughout Saturday, with large hail, damaging winds and possible tornadoes, Kines said.In northern Florida, the National Weather Service in Jacksonville had reports of high winds and possible tornado touchdowns, though no twisters have been confirmed, according to meteorologist Phil Peterson.Peterson said the weather service also had reports of baseball-sized hail west of Lawtey, Florida, early in the afternoon. Lake City received two inches of heavy rain in 30 minutes, he said.(Reporting by Mary Wisniewski and Keith Coffman; Editing by Colleen Jenkins, Dan Whitcomb, David Brunnstrom and Jackie Frank)

13 And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind.
14 And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.
15 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains;

Meteor lights up night sky over eastern United States

By Daniel Trotta | Reuters – Fri, Mar 22, 2013

By Daniel Trotta

NEW YORK (Reuters) - A meteor bright enough to be classified as a fireball lit up the night sky over eastern North America on Friday, providing a spectacle witnessed in at least 13 states, Washington, D.C. and two Canadian provinces, the American Meteor Society said.The society verified more than 300 witness sightings from Ontario and Quebec down to the southern U.S. state of North Carolina with more than 100 reports yet to be reviewed, said Mike Hankey, an observer for the American Meteor Society."This was most certainly a fireball seen over a good portion of the eastern states," said Robert Lunsford, the society's fireball coordinator."It happened at a good time, around 8 o'clock on a Friday night, when a lot of people were out to see it," Lunsford said.The society describes a fireball as a meteor brighter than Venus and Lunsford said they can be brighter than the Sun, as was the case with the one that streaked across the sky and exploded over Russia on February 15.Meteors are small particles from the solar system that burn from friction when entering the atmosphere.Several thousand meteors of fireball magnitude occur each day, most of them unseen over the oceans or hidden by daylight, the society said on its website.This one was seen up and down the East Coast and in inland states such as West Virginia and Ohio, the society said.The fireball's likely trajectory showed it moving east from eastern Pennsylvania and across New Jersey, passing just south of New York City and then over the Atlantic Ocean, based on witness reports to the society."I originally thought the fireball was a low-flying plane," said one witness from West Chester, Pennsylvania, whose comments were logged by the society.Many witnesses called it the brightest meteor they had ever seen. "I'm still in disbelief," said another from Boonsboro, Maryland.(Editing by Todd Eastham)

Obama ends Mideast trip with tour of ancient Petra

By JULIE PACE | Associated Press – 16 hrs ago MAR 24,13

PETRA, Jordan (AP) — President Barack Obama set aside the Middle East's tricky politics Saturday to marvel at the beauty of one of the region's most stunning sites, the fabled ancient city of Petra."This is pretty spectacular," he said, craning his neck to gaze up at the rock faces after emerging from a narrow pathway into a sun-splashed plaza in front of the grand Treasury. The soaring facade is considered the masterpiece of the ancient city carved into the rose-red stone by the Nabataeans more than 2,000 years ago.Obama's turn as tourist capped a four-day visit to the Middle East that included stops in Israel and the West Bank, as well Jordan. The White House set low policy expectations for the trip, and the president was returning to Washington with few tangible achievements to show. Aides said his intention instead was to reassure the region's politicians and people — particularly in Israel — that he is committed to their security and prosperity.Curious residents and picture-taking tourists lined the streets of modern Petra as Obama's motorcade wound toward the entrance to the ancient city. The president, dressed in khaki pants, a black jacket and hiking boots, began his walking tour at the entrance to the Siq, a narrow, winding gorge cutting between two soaring cliffs.The path opened into a dusty plaza with the massive columned Treasury as its centerpiece. Obama declared the carved monument is "amazing."The Bedouins named the building the Treasury because they believed that urns sculpted on top of it contained great treasures. In reality, the urns represented a memorial for Nabataean royalty. Over time, historians have disagreed on the Treasury's purpose. However, a recent excavation proved that a graveyard exists underneath it.The Nabataeans established Petra as a crucial junction for trade routes linking China, India and southern Arabia with Egypt, Syria, Greece and Rome. The city flourished until trade routes were redirected in the seventh century, leading to Petra's demise.Petra is Jordan's most popular tourist attraction, drawing more than a half million visitors yearly since 2007. It may be familiar to many people who saw the 1989 movie, "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade." Some scenes were filmed in the ancient city.High winds and overcast skies nearly grounded Marine One, the presidential helicopter, in the Jordanian capital of Amman, which would have forced Obama to scrap the tourist stop. But the weather cleared enough for him and his delegation to make the hour-long flight across Jordan's rugged landscape, arriving in Petra under bright sunshine.The president departed Jordan after the tour and was due back in Washington late Saturday.___Follow Julie Pace at http://twitter.com/jpaceDC

Obama Returns to US, Restoration of Israel-Turkey Ties in Pocket

U.S. President Barack Obama returned to the United States late Saturday from his four-day whirlwind tour of the Middle East.

Obama waves from Air Force One-Reuters

U.S. President Barack Obama returned to the United States late Saturday from his four-day whirlwind tour of the Middle East, with the accomplishment of having repaired Israeli-Turkish diplomatic and military ties in his pocket.
No small feat, such a coup placed a positive final note on a regional tour rife with topics that were anything but positive, given the turbulence and risks facing the nations he visited, at least two which continue to be directly affected, and even threatened, by the 2011 Arab Spring upheavals.The last day of Obama's visit to the region was spent in Jordan on talks with King Abdullah II, and visiting the ancient world-renowned site of Petra. Jordan is now home to literally hundreds of thousands of Syrian refugees who have fled the bloody civil war ravaging their homeland, with the outcome yet in doubt and multiple factions vying for power, including those linked to Al Qaeda and to Iran.In a joint news conference with the Hashemite monarch, Obama warned Friday that Syria could become a haven of “extremism” and radiated concern about the savage civil war entering its third year.At every stop along the way during his tour of Egypt, Israel, and Jordan, in fact, Obama discussed the situation in Syria and its impact on neighboring nations with the region’s leaders. He also found himself forced to reassure Jerusalem that America indeed remains intent on countering Iranian nuclear and other military threats.Another agenda raised with Israel’s leadership by Obama was the urgency to renew final status talks with the Palestinian Authority. The U.S. president arrived hours ahead of schedule at Andrews Air Force Base just outside Washington bearing with him an agreement between Israel and Turkey to restore diplomatic and military ties.The accomplishment put a positive note on the final leg of Obama’s trip to Israel, where he made a strong effort to repair the country’s perception of bad chemistry with Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu.

Palestinians cool to partial settlement freeze

By MOHAMMED DARAGHMEH | Associated Press – 1 hr 57 mins ago MAR 24,13

RAMALLAH, West Bank (AP) — A senior Palestinian official rejected on Sunday the idea of a partial Israeli settlement freeze as a way of restarting peace talks, a sign of tough times ahead for the Obama administration's new attempt to bring the sides together.U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry met separately late Saturday with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to talk about ending a deadlock of more than four years over settlements.Abbas says he won't return to negotiations without an Israeli construction freeze, saying Israel's building on war-won land pre-empts the outcome of talks on a border between Israel and a future state of Palestine. Abbas last held talks with Netanyahu's predecessor in late 2008.Netanyahu has refused to halt construction and instead calls for an immediate return to negotiations. President Barack Obama sided with Israel's position during a visit to the region last week, saying the Palestinians should return to talks to sort out the settlement issue.The U.S. has not spoken publicly about possible compromises in recent days, though there has been some speculation it would propose a partial construction stop in the West Bank heartland, east of Israel's separation barrier.
Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erekat said Sunday that the Palestinians do not seek a confrontation with the Obama administration, but appeared to suggest that nothing short of a full freeze will bring them back to negotiations.The Palestinians want a state in the West Bank, Gaza and east Jerusalem, areas Israel captured in 1967. Since that war, Israel has built dozens of settlements — considered illegal by much of the world and now home to more than half a million Israelis — in the West Bank and east Jerusalem.Much of the construction takes place in so-called "settlement blocs" close to Israel and in east Jerusalem. Israel's separation barrier cuts off east Jerusalem and some of the settlement blocs from the rest of the West Bank.
Asked if Abbas would accept a partial freeze, east of the barrier, Erekat told Voice of Palestine radio: "Absolutely not. It is rejected." First of all, 90 percent of the building in settlements is going on in the blocs," he said. "If we accepted that, we would be committing two crimes. The first is legalizing what is illegal, which is settlement construction, and the second is accepting the Israeli policy (of) dictation."Israel agreed to a 10-month slowdown in settlement construction early in Obama's first term, allowing talks to resume briefly in 2010. The talks fizzled out after Netanyahu refused to extend the slowdown, which had halted approvals for new homes but allowed previously started construction to continue.Israeli Justice Minister Tzipi Livni, who will oversee any negotiations with the Palestinians, said it remained to be seen what would bring about a new round of talks."We are after four years of stalemate, of distrust, and we need to see how we restart, what we will discuss," she told Army Radio.Erekat said the Palestinians would wait for two to three months to see if the Obama administration can come up with a way out of the deadlock. "We want to cooperate with the U.S. administration, not clash with it," he said.If the deadlock persists, the Palestinians will move ahead with their quest for international recognition, he said. "We have to focus on the steadfastness of our people, and we have 63 international agencies we can join," he said.In November, the U.N. General Assembly overwhelmingly recognized a state of Palestine in the West Bank, Gaza and east Jerusalem, despite objections by the U.S. and Israel. The recognition paved the way for Palestinians to seek membership in U.N. agencies and other international organizations.Earlier Sunday, Israel dismantled a tent camp Palestinians set up during Obama's recent visit to protest Israeli plans to build a large West Bank settlement near Jerusalem.During his visit, Obama singled out the settlement, known by its planning name E-1, as particularly problematic. The settlement of more 3,500 apartments would close one of the last open spaces between east Jerusalem and the West Bank.Before dawn Sunday, about 200 Israeli police officers removed some 40 demonstrators from the tent camp, said police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld. Three protesters were arrested, but no injuries were reported, Rosenfeld said.The encampment is part of a new Palestinian tactic to protest against Israeli settlement expansion.

IDF Attacked on Golan Heights by Forces in Syria, Returns Fire

Syrian gunmen opened fire on an IDF position in the Golan on Sunday morning in the second attack of its kind in 24 hours.IDF soldiers responded with heavy fire, scoring a direct hit on the position from which the fire originated. No soldiers were hurt.On Saturday night gunfire from the Syrian side of the border hit an IDF jeep in the same area. No soldiers were hurt in the attack.Senior military commanders said they remain unsure whether Syrian gunmen are deliberately targeting Israel, or if the gunfire and mortar shell fire over the border is simply spillover from Syria’s ongoing civil war.It is difficult to differentiate the motivations behind the attacks, because the civil war raging in Syria has evolved into a battle between the government and an opposition that is split into two factions.One is the Western-backed National Syrian Council (NSC) represented by the Free Syrian Army, and the second, a radical jihadist coalition called the Islamic Front for the Liberation of Syria comprised of 13 terrorist factions, most linked to extremist groups such as Al Qaeda.
Israel has filed a complaint with UN forces in the Golan over the latest violence.

Kerry: Turkey-Israel Reconciliation Vital for Peace

Israel and Turkey's rapprochement is a vital factor in developing peace and stability, says U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry.

Israel and Turkey's recent rapprochement is a vital factor in developing peace and stability in the Middle East, U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said on Saturday, AFP reported."The reconciliation between Israel and Turkey is a very important development that will help advance the cause of peace and stability in the region," Kerry said in a statement Saturday from the Jordanian capital Amman."Prime Minister Netanyahu and Prime Minister Erdogan deserve great credit for showing the leadership necessary to make this possible," he added, according to AFP."We look forward to an expeditious implementation of the agreement and the full normalization of relations so Israel and Turkey can work together to advance their common interests."Kerry, who held talks with Netanyahu on Saturday night after an earlier meeting with Palestinian Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas, said the rapprochement would help Israel meet the regional challenges it faces.The top U.S. diplomat "had useful follow up meetings with both President Abbas and Prime Minister Netanyahu," a senior State Department official told journalists in Amman."In both meetings, Secretary Kerry reiterated that peace is not only possible, but necessary for the future of the Israeli and Palestinian people," the official added, according to AFP.On Friday, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu apologized to Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan for the 2010 raid on a Gaza-bound flotilla, during which nine Turks were killed after they attacked IDF soldiers who boarded the Mavi Marmara which attempted to break the naval blockade on Gaza.On Saturday night, Netanyahu explained in a message on his Facebook page why he chose to apologize to Erdogan."After three years of a disconnect in Israeli-Turkish relations," he wrote, "I decided that this is the time to rebuild them.""The changing reality around us forces us to continually reexamine our relations with the countries surrounding us in the region. In the last three years, the state of Israel has made several attempts to end the disconnect between us and Turkey."The fact that the crisis in Syria is getting worse by the minute was, for me, a central consideration,” said Netanyahu.
National Security Adviser Yaakov Amidror confirmed on Saturday night that the situation in Syria was the main reason for Israel’s apology to Turkey for the Mavi Marmara incident.“The Middle East has changed,” he told Channel 2 News. “Between us and Turkey there is a state with chemical stockpiles that may get into hostile hands and Turkey has an interest to prevent this from happening, as does Israel.”

British police give all clear on radiation at Putin critic's home

By Olivia Harris

ASCOT, England (Reuters) - Specialist police with nuclear and chemical training gave the all clear at the British home of former Russian oligarch Boris Berezovsky on Sunday, a day after the fervent critic of Russian President Vladimir Putin died in unclear circumstances.The 67-year-old, a former powerbroker who helped Putin climb to the top of Russian politics before falling from grace, was found at his house in Ascot, 25 miles west of London.Police said his death was "unexplained" and sent radioactive, biological and chemical experts to do tests in the house as they tried to piece together Berezovsky's final hours.Berezovsky had survived assassination attempts and said he feared for his life after he became one of Putin's fiercest critics, repeatedly calling for him to be forced from office.He was also a friend of Alexander Litvinenko, the former Russian spy who was poisoned with radioactive material in London in 2006, a murder that strained diplomatic ties between Britain and Russia.However, associates said the man who personified the ruthless world of post-Soviet politics was depressed and may have committed suicide or had a heart attack after the stress of losing a $6 billion court case to Chelsea Football Club owner Roman Abramovich.British media said he had given an interview to Forbes Russia magazine shortly before his death in which he spoke of wanting to return to Russia. He had lived in Britain since fleeing Russia in 2000."I do not know what to do. I am 67 years old. And I do not know what to do next," he said in the interview, according to extracts published in several British newspapers.Police stood guard outside Berezovsky's mansion. Inside, detectives were carrying out a thorough search of the house."The CBRN (chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear) officers found nothing of concern in the property and we are now progressing the investigation as normal," Superintendent Simon Bowden, of Thames Valley Police, said in a statement.Berezovsky, seen by Moscow as a criminal who should stand trial for fraud and tax evasion, was humiliated in 2012 when he lost a legal battle with former partner Abramovich, over shares in Russia's fourth biggest oil company.Putin's spokesman, Dmitry Peskov, told state-run Rossya-24 television that Berezovsky had written to Putin and asked for help in returning to Russia."Some time ago, maybe a couple months ago, Berezovsky sent Vladimir Putin a letter he wrote personally, in which he acknowledged that he had made many mistakes, asked Putin's forgiveness for these mistakes and appealed to Putin to help him return to his homeland," Rossiya-24 quoted Peskov as saying.Some associates said Berezovsky had struggled with the cost of losing the case, estimated at the time as more than $100 million. Berezovsky had kept a low profile since the defeat and was rarely seen in public.
"He had no money, he had lost it all. He was unbelievably depressed," Tim Bell, a public relations executive who was one of his closest British advisers, told the Sunday Times newspaper. "It's all very sad."Alexei Venediktov, editor of Russia's Ekho Moskvy radio, said he had heard from unspecified sources that Berezovsky had died from heart failure.(Writing by Peter Griffiths in London; Additional reporting by Steve Gutterman in Moscow; Editing by Louise Ireland)
