As international attention in Syria focuses on efforts to
dismantle the Assad regime's chemical weapons stockpile, British experts
are warning of another, potentially more lethal threat.Experts from the Henry Jackson Society (HJS) have issued a stark
warning over what they say is the "clear and present danger" of Al Qaeda
gaining possession of the Assad regime's stockpile of biological
weapons, claiming to have substantial evidence that Al Qaeda-linked
groups may already have possession of toxic agents.Unlike chemical weapons, which utilize chemical agents to poison
victims, biological weapons make use of diseases, toxins and other
contagious agents. Biological weapons have the potential to kill far
greater numbers, and are also far harder to detect or protect against.Both are banned under international treaties,
but the Syrian government possesses active programs in both fields.
However, whilst the use of chemical weapons during the Syrian civil war has
been seen on numerous occasions - most notably, but by no means
exclusively, during the August 21 attack which killed more than 1,000
people in a number of Damascus suburbs - biological weapons have not
been used by either side.That is likely because bioweapons are notoriously difficult to control or contain.But the HJS report,
released on Tuesday, says that jihadists in Syria are actively seeking
to gain control of the regime's biological weapons'
stockpile and, chillingly, suggests they may already have done so.The report claims that the Assad regime is losing control of its
bioweapons arsenal, in part because it was never centrally-controlled in
the way the country's chemical weapons stockpile has been.
"Unlike chemical weapons, maintained in military designated stockpiles which are generally identifiable and which Assad maintains command and control over, the structure of Syria's biological warfare programs are latent, compartmentalized and spread across its remaining bio-pharmaceutical infrastructure. The programs are designed to be highly agile to allow swift production if required."Worryingly, the report suggests that the Al Qaeda-linked Nusra Front may already have possession of "biological pathogens or weaponized agents either of which would pose a threat to the international community."It points to the widespread looting of bio-pharmasuitical laboratories throughout the country, and cites a "credible eyewitness" as claiming to have personally witnessed "a looted pharmaceutical laboratory," near Aleppo, where Syria's biological weapons program is concentrated, "which was probably a cover for a biological weapons production site."The fact that a Malaysian Al Qaeda operative named as Yazid Sufaat, identified as "Al Qaeda's primary biological weapon expert", was arrested in February as he attempted to enter Syria, was said to indicate the clear interest that the group has in developing such a program in the country.Other Al Qaeda branches, most notably in Yemen and North Africa, have previously attempted to obtain such weapons, and the group's founder, Osama Bin Laden, had expressed an interest in them prior to the infamous 9/11 attacks.While the report does not cite any clear and definitive evidence of Al Qaeda physically possessing biological agents, the circumstantial evidence paints a fairly alarming picture.On the other hand, analysts will find some solace in the fact that neither Al Qaeda nor any other terrorist group has successfully manufactured and deployed biological weapons to lethal effect.But HJS's Associate Fellow Dr Bellamy van Aalst, a former EU and NATO bio-defence consultant, warned against complacency, in light of the relative availability of already-weaponized and readily-deployable biological weapons in Syria.“Establishing the extent to which Assad may have developed biological WMDs is extremely difficult, given that their production is indistinguishable from benign biological lab processes.“But this is certainly a risk to which we should not turn a blind eye. If Assad has been developing biological weapons, as the evidence suggests, and if those weapons fall into the hands of extremists, global health security could be in grave danger.”
Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu described the assassination of
former Israeli Prime Minister Yitzchak Rabin as one of Israel's "darkest
moments", during a Knesset memorial event this afternoon."In 66 years of our independence we have experienced happy times and
difficult ones; times of great elation and in contrast times of anxiety,
pain and grief," he began."But one dark moment will remain forever in infamy in the history of
the State of Israel - the night that Yitzchak Rabin was murdered in the
heart of Tel Aviv."What made the assassination all the more tragic, he said, was "the
fact that the Prime Minister was killed at the hands of a Jew," adding
that "there can be no forgiveness for the murderer. It is forbidden to
pardon him."Netanyahu continued by underlining the human aspect of the murder of Israel's two-time Prime Minister."The murder of Yitzchak Rabin was not just an assault on Israeli
democracy and a blow to the heart of the nation, it was also an enormous
human tragedy," he said."Rabin was a special man rooted in values, shy and opinionated at the
same time. Completely open to the changing world around us," but above
all else a man who cared deeply about the future of the State of Israel
and its security, he said.Yitzchak Rabin was murdered by a Jewish gunman on 4th November 1995,
as he attended a left-wing rally in support of the Oslo Accords, which
granted control over parts of Judea and Samaria to the Palestinian
Authority, as well as weapons for its security forces, as part of a
much-vaunted attempt to end the Arab-Israeli conflict.That attempt ultimately failed, with the Accords widely seen as
responsible for increased attacks against Israel by terrorist groups,
culminating in the bloody "Second Intifada" which killed more than one
thousand Israelis, mostly civilians.

2 With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication,(VATICAN IN POLITICS) and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication.

For Pope Francis, who, it is said, plans to visit Jerusalem next year, the State of Israel doesn't even exist.
This is how the Pope greeted the faithful at the end of the General Audience in Rome: "I ask you to pray for the peace in the Middle East: in Syria, in Iraq, in Egypt, in Lebanon and in the Holy Land, where the Prince of Peace is born".Where is Israel in the Pope's statement? A few days earlier, the Pope had visited St. Francis' grave in Assisi. There, Papa Bergoglio said: "Let us listen to the cry of all those who are weeping, who are suffering and who are dying because of violence, terrorism or war, in the Holy Land, so dear to Saint Francis, in Syria, throughout the Middle East and everywhere in the world".No mention again of the Jewish State or of the two Israeli soldiers murdered by Muslim terrorists this month."Terra Sancta", holy land, is the malignant expression used by the Vatican and the Catholic clergy in the Middle East to deny the very existence of the Jewish state and people. If it is their holy land, it cannot be Eretz Yisrael.A few days ago Asia News, one of the most important Catholic Church foreign news media outlets, ran an article titled "The Costs of the Israeli Occupation and the Judaization of Jerusalem".The two countries which took pride in themselves as true Catholic States during the Second World War, were Slovakia and Croatia. There, more than anywhere else, strong condemnation of anti-Jewish measures could have been expected. But in May 1943, while the gas chambers of Auschwitz and Treblinka were turning Europe's Jewry into ashes, the Vatican's Secretary of State Cardinal, Luigi Maglione, in a document, listed a number of arguments to support the Pope's refusal to help and rescue 2,000 Jewish children from Slovakia.
Various reasons were given to explain the Catholic Church's refusal to recognize Israel for decades after the war.
Among these, Maglione mentioned the Vatican's opposition to the Balfour Declaration and the plan to establish a Jewish homeland.Various reasons were given to explain the Catholic Church's refusal to recognize Israel for decades after the war.
Among these were that Israel did not yet have "recognized borders,"
while the Vatican maintains diplomatic ties with other countries without
"recognized borders." Democratic countries such as Iran, Saudi Arabia,
Syria.But the Vatican's denial would have existed even if Israel
would have drawn its border in Herzliya. It is Israel's very existence
which makes the Vatican's hierarchy nervous. They cannot even pronounce
the name of "Israel".David Ben Gurion said it well: "The Catholic
Church has a 2,000 years old reckoning with the Jews. The Vatican
doesn't want Israel to rule. There is a dogma (replacement theology,
ed.) which has existed for 1,800 years and we gave it the coup de grace
by establishing the State of Israel".From 1943 to 2013, nothing
as really changed in the Vatican's rejection of Israel's territorial and
religious sovereignty over the "holy land".Yesterday it was apathy about a Slovakian Jewish child. Today it is a little Israeli girl from Psagot.
’Israel intends to destroy the Al Aksa mosque’ on the Temple Mount is a major lie promoted by leading Palestinian, Arab and Muslim groups and individuals. Haj Amin al Husseini, the pre-war Grand Mufti of Jerusalem was the first to promote this slander in the 1920s. It was part of the vast anti-Semitic activities of this ally of Hitler."During the Second World War, Husseini planned to build an Auschwitz-like crematorium near Nablus. He intended to have Jews from Palestine and Arab countries gassed there. Husseini also helped create Muslim SS units in Bosnia and Kossovo. “The ‘Al Aksa is in danger’ lie has expanded greatly since 1967. It is propagated by official Iranian sources - Al Qaeda, Hamas, Hezbollah, etc. Akrama Sabri, former Mufti of Jerusalem appointed by the Palestinian Authority is another leading disseminator of the Al-Aksa libel.”Nadav Shragai is a senior journalist with the Israel HaYom daily and a Fellow at the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs. He specializes in the history of the conflict concerning Jerusalem. His latest book is titled, The“Al-Aksa is in Danger” Libel: The History of a Lie.“In Israel, the main propagator of the ‘Al Aksa is in danger’ lie is Sheikh Raed Salah, leader of the northern branch of the Islamic Movement. He has often in the past called for ‘sacrificing lives to defend Al-Aksa.’ In 1996, Salah organized the first mass rally under the ‘Al Aksa is in danger’ slogan followed by many others. Saleh shares many views with Iran’s leaders including striving toward a worldwide caliphate.“The ‘Al-Aksa is in danger’ libel has been revived in particular during Israeli archaeological excavations or construction close to the Temple Mount. This incitement has ignited violence by Muslims on several occasions. The reality is, Israeli excavations have only taken place alongside the walls of the Mount, or hundreds of meters away from it.“These Arab claims are an inversion of the truth. The main danger of collapse of the Temple Mount and parts of the Al-Aksa mosque came from Muslim building on its southeastern part, and in particular from the renovation of Solomon’s Stable there to serve as an underground mosque 15 years ago.“The ‘Al-Aksa is in danger’ claim is part of a wider Arab campaign to re-write Jerusalem’s history. This narrative includes lies such as the Arabs ruled Jerusalem for many years before the Jewish people arrived in ancient times. In fact, very few Arabs were present in this part of the Middle East then. Another lie is that the Al-Aksa mosque was built before the establishment of the Jewish Temple. However, Islam did not even exist at that time.
"A terrorist gang planned to set up an infrastructure for Al Qaeda in the mosque. They also wanted to shoot down President Bush’s helicopter during his 2008 visit to Jerusalem."
"At
the beginning of this century, Yasser Arafat publicly claimed that
there was never a Jewish temple on the Temple Mount. Yet before 1967,
Muslim sources going back centuries affirmed the existence of the Jewish
Temple on the Temple Mount.“The Temple Mount mosques have also
occasionally been used for terror purposes. Some groups have planned in
them – though not departing from there for terrorist acts – to carry out
deadly attacks such as in 1986 when the ‘Silwan Squad’ threw grenades
at Israeli soldiers in the Old City. Another terrorist group which used
the mosque was the abductors and murderers of three Israeli policemen in
1992 and 1993. Yet another gang planned to set up an infrastructure for
Al Qaeda in the mosque. They also wanted to shoot down President Bush’s
helicopter during his 2008 visit to Jerusalem.“The mosques were
also utilized for major incitement to terror and violence during the
first and second intifadas. Using mosques for military purposes has been
declared legal by senior religious authorities in the Muslim world,
including Sunni Sheikh Yussuf al Qaradawi and the Shiite Ayatollah
Khomeini.“The United States and the United Kingdom, as well as
Muslim states such as Jordan, Egypt and Saudi Arabia have taken measures
against incitement in mosques. The most far-reaching action was
undertaken by Pakistan in 2007. That country’s army broke into the main
mosque of Islamabad, killing deputy Imam Abd al-Aziz Ayazi and hundred
of his followers. Ayazi’s supporters had carried out many terror
attacks.“In view of all this, Israel’s course of action in dealing with Muslim hate-mongering in Temple Mount mosques is extremely liberal. This, while several of its preachers strongly incite against the Jewish people, the Zionist movement and the State of Israel.“Historically,
the religions and people who conquered Jerusalem destroyed many houses
of worship of the defeated, or converted them into their own houses of
worship. Israel, to the contrary, left the management of the Temple
Mount to the Muslim religious endowment authorities when it conquered
the Old City of Jerusalem in 1967. This is the third holiest place for
Muslims after Mekka and Medina, while for Jews it is the holiest. The
only change was that Jews and members of other religions could finally
access it. Israel has made major efforts to protect the Temple Mount
mosques. This makes the claim that Israel wants to destroy them, even
more absurd.“Israel has effectively relinquished the Jewish right
to pray on the Temple Mount. Israel’s policy thus contrasts greatly
with that of all other religions. Through this decision, the State of
Israel has made the greatest concession ever of one religion to
another.”
