Rampaging Iran Has Created 3 Fronts on Israel'-Netanyahu explains it is his duty to warn against Iranian nukes in Congress, 'militant Islam with WMDs is greatest danger to humanity.'By Ari Yashar-First Publish: 2/16/2015, 10:02 PM-ISRAELNATIONALNEWS
Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu on Monday addressed the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations, where he explained his upcoming speech at the US Congress about the Iranian nuclear threat."I'm going to Washington because as Prime Minister of Israel, it's my obligation to do everything in my power to prevent the conclusion of a bad deal that could threaten the survival of the State of Israel. The current proposal to Iran would endanger Israel," he emphasized. "It would enable Iran to breakout to its first nuclear device within an unacceptably short time. And it would allow Iran to build an industrial capability to enrich uranium that could provide the fuel for many bombs in the coming years."Netanyahu warned "a regime that openly calls for Israel's destruction would thus have finally the means to realize its genocidal aims."He noted that he had accepted the invitation to address the Congress "because a speech before Congress allows Israel to present its position to the elected representatives of the American people and to a worldwide audience; because Congress has played a critical role in applying pressure to the Iranian regime...and because Congress may very well have a say on the parameters of any final deal with Iran. That's why I'm going to Congress."Turning the speech that has been widely criticized by the left on its head, Netanyahu remarked "I think the real question that should be asked is how could any responsible Israeli prime minister refuse to speak to Congress on a matter so important to Israel's survival? How could anyone refuse an invitation to speak on a matter that could affect our very existence when such an invitation is offered?"Responding to accusations that his speech was an affront to the Democratic party, the prime minister said "I don't see this issue in partisan terms. The survival of Israel is not a partisan issue. It concerns everyone, all the supporters of Israel from every political stripe. The fight against militant Islamic terrorism is not a partisan issue.""I think the greatest danger facing humanity is the possibility that any movement or any regime of militant Islam will arm itself with the weapons of mass destruction. Everything that we see in our region now will pale by comparison. Everything that we see in Europe will pale by comparison," he warned.Iran creating three fronts against Israel-Iran has been expanding its reach through proxy terror groups such as Hezbollah in Lebanon, Hamas in Gaza, and most recently the Houthis in Yemen who have seized control by besieging the Yemenite government and forcing it to collapse.Commenting on this trend, Netanyahu said "when a militant Islamic regime that is rampaging through the region right now – that's what Iran is doing, it's conducting a rampage through the region – when such a regime has nuclear weapons, the whole world will be in peril.""Look at what Iran is doing now without nuclear weapons. States are collapsing. And Iran is plunging forward. It's already controlling four capitals. It's controlling now through its Houthi proxies the Bab-el-Mandeb Straits," he said, noting on a strategic point in Yemen controlling the Red Sea and access to Eilat.Netanyahu stated Iran is "trying to envelope Israel with three terrorist tentacles – Lebanon, Hezbollah, Hamas in Gaza and now it's trying to build with its Hezbollah proxies a third front in the Golan.""Now can I guarantee that my speech in Congress will prevent a dangerous deal with Iran from being signed?" asked Netanyahu, returning to the speech. "Honestly, I don't know. No one knows. But I do know this – it's my sacred duty as Prime Minister of Israel to make Israel's case."
Canada opposes 15 Palestinian attempts to join United Nations treaties-The Canadian Press By Mike Blanchfield, The Canadian Press | FEB 16,15-YAHOONEWS
OTTAWA - Canada has formally opposed Palestinian attempts to join 15 different United Nations treaties and conventions — a position that puts the federal government on the wrong side of history and at odds with its citizenry, the Palestinian envoy in Ottawa says.Canada is objecting in writing to the UN because it maintains Palestine is not a legal state. The Palestinians have formally replied to Canada's objections in writing, issuing a pointed reminder that they won non-member observer status in November 2012 at the UN General Assembly.The dispute has sparked the most scathing Palestinian criticism to date of the Harper government's unwavering support of Israel."It pains the Palestinians to know that Canada is trying to exclude us from our rightful place in the family of nations. It is awkward to see a great country like Canada relegated to the role of cheerleader for Israeli extremists at the UN," Said Hamad, the chief representative of the Palestinian delegation to Canada, said in an emailed response to questions."When future Canadians look back at Canada's positions during this time they will be appalled that their country was so boldly opposed to justice and so far on the wrong side of history," he added."We invite Canada to pursue a position of its own — rather than parrot policies developed by the Likud Party and its ultranationalist allies — on the matter of Palestinian freedom."Canada voted against the Palestinian bid for statehood recognition along with Israel, the United States and six smaller countries, but it still won the approval of the 193-member UN General Assembly.On Nov. 29, 2012, John Baird — who was foreign affairs minister at the time — flew to New York to deliver a speech to the General Assembly to express Canada's opposition to the bid.Now, Canada is making it clear to the UN that because it does not recognize "Palestine" as a state, it does not recognize any treaty relations with it, either.In documents filed by the UN, Canada has objected to the Palestinians acceding to the Rome Statute that creates the International Criminal Court and 14 other conventions and protocols.Among them are the Convention on Biodiversity, the Basel Convention on the Control of Transboundary Movements of Hazardous Wastes and their Disposal, the UN Law of the Sea, a convention against transnational organized crime, a protocol on biosafety and biological diversity and the convention on womens' rights.In repetitive legalese, one of the documents citing Canada's position says, "'Palestine' does not meet the criteria of a state under international law and is not recognized by Canada as a state." It says that Canada considers any declarations "made by the 'State of Palestine' to be without any legal validity or effect."In its repeated replies, "The State of Palestine" says it "regrets the position of Canada and wishes to recall" the resolution of Nov. 29, 2012, that granted it "non-observer state status in the United Nations."The Department of Foreign Affairs says Canada has officially registered its objections to the Palestinian action with the UN Secretary General and the International Criminal Court."Canada's position on Palestinian efforts to join the ICC and to become party to other treaties is clear: the Palestinians do not meet the criteria of a state under international law. They are not recognized by Canada as a state," said spokesman Francois Lasalle."This provocative Palestinian attempt to politicize international organizations will not contribute to peace in the region."New Democrat foreign affairs critic Paul Dewar said the Palestinians have earned the right to join UN treaties and conventions."At a time when we're facing a crisis in Ukraine and devastation in Syria and Iraq, I'm sure there's much more important work that our diplomats at the UN could be doing to save lives and promote global peace and security."Canada also opposes the Palestinian bid to join the Convention on Cluster Munitions (CCM), a treaty that Canada itself signed in 2008 but has yet to ratify.While the Canadian government has yet to formally deposit any ratification documents on the CCM with the UN, it has nonetheless managed to register its objection to the Palestinian desire to ratify it."Canada considers the declaration made by the 'State of Palestine' to be without any legal validity or effect," says the notification on the CCM circulated by the UN on Jan. 23.Last week, the UN circulated the Palestinian reply, which came with the same boilerplate statement of regret and reminder of UN recognition."The Conservatives should focus on ratifying Canada's commitments on the Convention on Cluster Munitions rather than trying to keep others from joining this important international treaty," said Dewar.Canada has faced international condemnation for dragging its heels on ratifying the CCM, and for proposing ratification legislation that could undermine the treaty.Cluster bombs are tiny submunitions that often lay dormant for decades, eventually maiming and killing innocent civilians.Israel's 72-hour bombardment of south Lebanon with cluster bombs in the final hours of its 2006 summer war with Hezbollah terrorists spurred the international effort to create the treaty banning the weapons.
France Sells Egypt 24 Rafale Fighter Jets-France signs an agreement with Egypt for the sale of its Rafale fighter jet, in a show of support for President Sisi.By Ben Ariel-First Publish: 2/17/2015, 3:43 AM-ISRAELNATIONALNEWS
France on Monday signed an agreement with Egypt for the first foreign sale of its Rafale fighter jet, in a deal that will boost Cairo’s military as it tackles jihadists, AFP reported.Paris hopes the 5.2 billion euro ($5.9 billion) deal for 24 Rafale fighters to be delivered later this year will prompt others to snap up its latest combat jet.For Egypt, the agreement is a show of support for President Abdel-Fattah al-Sisi, who overthrew his Islamist predecessor in 2013 and wants to break a U.S. monopoly over Egypt’s arms supplies.In October of 2013, three months after Islamist President Mohammed Morsi was ousted, the United States announced that it would withdraw a significant portion of its military aid to Egypt in an act of protest over the violence in Egypt following the ouster.Several months ago, however, Washington resumed some of the annual $1.5 billion in aid to Cairo, including 10 Apache helicopter gunships for counterterrorism efforts in the Sinai Peninsula.France’s Defense Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian and Sisi oversaw Monday’s signing of the deal at the presidential palace in Cairo.“Our two countries are pursuing a common struggle against terrorism,” Le Drian said during the signing ceremony, according to AFP.“Egypt’s stability is an important element in the stability of the countries overlooking the Mediterranean Sea, especially your country that has witnessed recent terrorist events,” Egyptian Defense Minister Sedki Sobhi told Le Drian.The signing came as the Egyptian army conducted airstrikes against Islamic State (ISIS) targets in Libya, including training camps and arms depots, after the group published a video showing the beheadings of 21 Coptic Christians it abducted in Libya.Before heading to Cairo, Le Drian had said the beheadings of the 21 Egyptian Coptic Christians was an “additional reason for security” for Egypt.The sale is welcome news to cash-strapped France, which is even diverting three jets away from its own air force for the delivery.“This contract puts Rafale at the top of the pyramid of combat aircraft,” Le Drian said later Monday, according to AFP.French President Francois Hollande said the agreement – clinched in only three months of negotiations – provided Cairo with “a quality aircraft” and was important for Egypt “taking into account the threats existing around the country.”
