Israel strikes Gaza in response to rocket fire, no injuries-Associated Press-JULY 16,15-YAHOONEWS
JERUSALEM (AP) — The Israeli military says its warplanes have struck the Gaza Strip in response to a rocket launched from the coastal area into southern Israel.The military says the rocket landed early Thursday in an open area near the city of Ashkelon. It says Israeli warplanes retaliated by targeting a "terror infrastructure" in the Palestinian territory.Palestinian media in Gaza reported two Israeli airstrikes, in the north and central Gaza Strip. One targeted a watchtower near the Gaza-Israel border and the other a militant training site.There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the rocket fire. Islamic militants in Gaza have claimed responsibility for sporadic rocket fire into Israel in recent months.During last summer's war between Israel and the Hamas group in Gaza, more than 2,200 Palestinians, and 73 people on the Israeli side, were killed. The war disrupted the lives of millions of people as they coped with rocket attacks and air-raid sirens.
Israeli-Canadian woman fought IS to stop 'genocide'-Associated Press By MIRIAM BERGER-JULY 16,15-YAHOONEWS
JERUSALEM (AP) — A Canadian-born Israeli woman who joined a Kurdish militia to fight against the Islamic State group said that after a stint in prison, she felt compelled to do something positive with her life and battle against the "genocide" unfolding in Syria and Iraq.
Gill Rosenberg, 31, was among the first female volunteers to fight in the Syrian civil war. She claims to have spent eight months between November and June on the front lines with Kurdish guerrillas in Syria and a Christian militia in Iraq, Dwekh Nawsha, fighting against the Islamic State group. There were false reports in December that she had been captured and possibly killed.Rosenberg, who grew up in White Rock, British Columbia, became an Israeli citizen in 2006 and served in the Israeli military in a search and rescue unit.She later spent four years incarcerated in a U.S prison for her part in a phone scam that bilked elderly people out of millions of dollars. Wearing a reversed baseball cap, sports shirt and large chain, she told reporters Thursday that she had been "young and stupid" and regretted her involvement in the scam.Rosenberg said she became interested in the Syrian conflict and Kurdish cause soon after her release from jail last summer. She said she was angered by images of the Islamic State group's violence. The extremist group has released numerous videos beheading and torturing political opponents, suspected spies, women and religious minorities."I saw everything that was on social media," Rosenberg said. "For me that was a big difference between just a regular war and genocide, and I couldn't stand by and allow that to happen."Rosenberg said she made contact on Facebook with a Kurdish militia group with a large online following. She then traveled to Erbil, Iraq, where the group helped her cross into Syria."I saw they (the Kurdish militia) had female fighters, fighting right alongside the men, treated as equals and I thought, 'Why not me, I know I can help,'" Rosenberg said.While Israel is believed to have covert ties with Iraqi Kurds, Israeli citizens are barred from traveling to Syria or Iraq. Rosenberg traveled on her Canadian passport.Rosenberg said she kept her Israeli citizenship discreet while fighting with the Kurdish militia, many of whose members she said were supportive of Israel.The Shin Bet, the Israeli internal security agency, said it questioned Rosenberg upon her return to Israel. It gave no further details and would not say whether any other Israeli citizens are fighting with Kurdish or Islamic State group forces. Israel has arrested several citizens for alleged links with the Islamic State group.Rosenberg said she left Iraq because changes in the political situation made her work more dangerous and complicated."I felt that I could come back and give more to the effort not by fighting on the front lines, but by either raising awareness and talking to people about it and my experiences," Rosenberg said.Representatives of the YPG, the main Syrian Kurdish militia, and Dwekh Nawsha confirmed that Rosenberg had served with them. A YPG spokesman said she had received ideological and weapons training and joined a fighters unit, though he did not know whether she saw any combat. A Dwekh Nawsha spokesman said she had served in support roles and not participated in actual fighting. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity, citing security reasons.Kurdish groups say there are dozens of westerners fighting with them. Over 3,400 westerners are estimated to be fighting with the Islamic State group.
ICC wants to reopen probe into Mavi Marmara raid-Court says prosecutor made error by dropping investigation into 2010 IDF operation to halt Gaza-bound flotilla-By Judah Ari Gross July 16, 2015, 8:57 pm-THE TIMES OF ISRAEL
The International Criminal Court on Thursday requested that chief prosecutor Fatou Bensouda reopen a probe into the 2010 so-called Mavi Marmara flotilla incident, in which Turkish activists died in clashes with Israeli forces on a ship attempting to break the Gaza blockade.In May 2013, the Union of Comoros, a small archipelago nation off the coast of Africa, filed a request with the ICC to investigate Israel for war crimes.Eight Turks and one Turkish-American were killed and several other pro-Palestinian activists were wounded when Israeli commandos intercepted the Mavi Marmara ship on May 31, 2010, as it attempted to bust Israel’s naval blockade.The Israel Defense Forces said its soldiers acted in self-defense after they were attacked with lethal weapons. Several soldiers were seriously wounded in the clash.Bensouda said in November there would be no investigation leading to a prosecution, despite a “reasonable basis” to believe that war crimes were committed. She said any potential cases arising from an investigation into the incident would not be of “sufficient gravity” to justify further ICC action.In response, Israel criticized “imprudent statements” that appeared in the ICC report in November, namely what it said was the omission of the “lethal, pre-planned and organized violence” perpetrated by activists on board the flotilla, such that the IDF soldiers were forced to defend themselves.In a statement issued by the ICC on Thursday, however, a panel of three judges stated that the prosecutor “committed material errors in her determination of the gravity of the potential case.”Bensouda, the judges said, did not take into account events that occurred outside of the court’s jurisdiction — notably the treatment of prisoners once they arrived in Israel — when determining the gravity of the case.The judges requested Bensouda “reconsider her decision not to investigate, if it concludes that the validity of the decision is materially affected by an error, whether it is an error of procedure, an error of law, or an error of fact.”This decision was made by Judges Joyce Aluoch and Cuno Tarfusser. The third judge, Péter Kovács, dissented on the request.Deputy Foreign Minister Tzipi Hotovely on Thursday condemned the decision, indicating it was part of a campaign of “Palestinian incitement.”“It’s very puzzling to me why the International Criminal Court would decide to open a probe into soldiers who defended themselves against brutal attacks by terrorists aboard the Marmara,” Ynet news website quoted Hotovely as saying.“There are Palestinian actors who are trying all the time to incite international bodies against Israel. I hope those same bodies will be able to identify the incitement and not help it along.”

Deputy FM to require foreign dignitaries to visit Western Wall-Breaking precedent, Hotovely changes itinerary for visiting diplomats, includes tour of Old City of Jerusalem-By Judah Ari Gross July 16, 2015, 8:27 pm-THE TIMES OF ISRAEL
Deputy Foreign Minister Tzipi Hotovely has announced plans to include the Old City of Jerusalem in the official itinerary of visiting dignitaries Thursday, Walla news reported Thursday.The Foreign Ministry’s travel plan for foreign diplomats requires a visit to the Yad Vashem Holocaust Museum in Jerusalem, but out of deference to countries’ issues with the status of the parts of Jerusalem over the Green Line, visits to the Old City were always without official representation of the Israeli government.Though many foreign dignitaries visit the Church of the Holy Sepulcher and other Christian sites in the Old City, this is done only with the required security personnel and no government representative.Hotovely, a deputy minister without a dedicated minister above her, will seek to change that protocol. Her new itinerary will include a guided tour of the Old City and the Western Wall, Walla said.Hotovely’s decision came after discussion with Foreign Ministry Director-General Dore Gold. The two determined that, although important, Yad Vashem and the Holocaust are only one aspect of the State of Israel’s identity.This addition may well draw sharp criticism from members of the international community, which does not recognize Israeli sovereignty over East Jerusalem and other parts of the city conquered by Israel in the 1967 Six-Day War. These parts of the city are not even recognized as Israeli by some of the Jewish state’s staunchest allies, among them the United States.Tensions over the issue in the United States resurfaced most recently last month when the Supreme Court upheld a State Department decision to list the birth place of people born in Jerusalem by the city’s name, and not “Israel” as with those born in other parts of the country.According to sources within the Foreign Ministry, it is unclear how many countries will cooperate with the proposed itinerary, Walla said.
A deal to compel Iran to choose between the bomb and sanctions relief,' says PM, 'would be welcomed in Tel Aviv and here in Israel's capital, Jerusalem'-Netanyahu rebukes UK’s Hammond for ‘failure of diplomacy’ on Iran-PM hits back at visiting British foreign secretary, who on Wednesday claimed there was no deal that would have been ‘welcomed in Tel Aviv’-By Tamar Pileggi July 16, 2015, 6:57 pm 15-THE TIMES OF ISRAEL
The newly finalized agreement between Iran and world powers to curb the former’s nuclear program is a “failure of diplomacy” that allows Iran to avoid choosing between nuclear capability and economic growth, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told British Foreign Secretary Philip Hammond in Jerusalem on Thursday.The prime minister said that the agreement threatens Israel’s existence and regional peace and security. “It lifts the sanctions today and paves a path to the bomb tomorrow,” Netanyahu said.Meeting a day after Hammond slammed Netanyahu for his outspoken opposition to the Iran nuclear deal, the two discussed the terms of an agreement branded by Netanyahu as a “historic mistake.”Britain is one of the six world powers — along with China, France, Germany, Russia and the United States — that struck the deal with Iran after a 13-year standoff over its disputed nuclear program.Hammond, who came to Israel in an effort to reassure Netanyahu that Tuesday’s deal was in Israel’s best interest, told a joint press conference that “robust measures” would ensure its success.“We would not have agreed to the deal unless we were sure we had robust measures in place to deliver effective oversight of Iran’s nuclear program,” Hammond said.Netanyahu called it “perplexing” that the deal does not address Iran’s calls to annihilate Israel.Hammond said he understood Netanyahu’s concerns, but added “We have always been clear that this deal was about the nuclear file.”He said Iran’s “regional conduct” will “have to be dealt with in the months and years to come,” telling Netanyahu “We are not naive about this.”On Wednesday, Hammond told the British parliament that Israel wanted a “permanent standoff” with Iran and would not have been satisfied with any agreement.“The question you have to ask yourself is what kind of a deal would have been welcomed in Tel Aviv. The answer of course is that Israel doesn’t want any deal with Iran,” Hammond told lawmakers. “Israel wants a permanent state of standoff, and I don’t believe that’s in the interests of the region. I don’t believe it’s in our interest.”In response, Netanyahu asserted Thursday at a joint press conference with Hammond that Israel would have welcomed a deal that would “compel Iran to choose between a path to the bomb and sanctions relief.”“That’s the kind of deal that would be welcomed in Tel Aviv and here in Israel’s capital, Jerusalem,” Netanyahu said, pointedly referencing Hammond’s House of Commons mention of the Israeli government as “Tel Aviv.”Netanyahu said the agreement would enable Tehran to obtain a nuclear weapon whether it broke or kept to its terms. In order to realize its nuclear ambitions, Netanyahu said, Tehran could either cheat and overcome the “porous inspections mechanism,” or wait out the 10-year period capping uranium enrichment, after which it could achieve the necessary technology to develop nuclear arms.“This [waiting period] will able Iran to have the capacity to produce the enriched uranium for an entire nuclear arsenal with zero breakout time,” he said.In the meantime, Netanyahu said, the immediate economic sanctions relief awarded to Iran under the agreement would inject billions of dollars of revenue into its economy which would be used to finance terrorism in the region.“The alternative to this bad deal is not war,” he said, alluding to remarks by President Barack Obama on Wednesday. “The alternative is a better deal that would roll back Iran’s military nuclear program and tie the easing of restrictions on Iran’s nuclear program to changes in Iran’s behavior.”AP contributed to this report.
Only 10 percent of Israelis trust the US to thwart Tehran's ambitions-Poll: Israelis overwhelmingly certain Iran still wants nukes-Post-deal survey finds 70% of Israelis oppose nuclear agreement, and one-third support strike on Iranian military facilities-By Adiv Sterman July 16, 2015, 4:17 pm-THE TIMES OF ISRAEL
Three-quarters of the Israeli public believe the recent signing of the nuclear accord between world powers and Iran will not prevent the Islamic Republic from striving to acquire atomic weapons, and only 10 percent the population say they trust the US to thwart Tehran’s ambitions to produce unconventional arms, according to a poll conducted Wednesday by the Sarid Institute and published Thursday by Channel 10 news.The poll further found that 70% of Israelis oppose the nuclear deal, while a mere 10% support it. Twenty percent of respondents said they had no opinion on the matter. A third of respondents said Israel now had no choice but to strike Iran’s nuclear facilities, while 40% opposed military action against the Islamic Republic.Sixty percent think that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu should lead a campaign in the US Congress aimed at stopping the agreement from being implemented. Only 20% oppose such a campaign.Channel 10 did not state the number of people who took part in the survey.Under the deal announced Tuesday, Iran’s nuclear program will be scaled back and closely monitored as the US and world powers seek to cut off the Islamic Republic’s ability to develop an atomic weapon. In exchange, Iran will see biting economic sanctions gradually lifted, freeing up tens of billions of dollars in oil revenue and frozen assets.But Netanyahu and other critics say the deal should have neutralized and dismantled Iran’s military nuclear facilities, and warn that the deal paves Iran’s path to the bomb and will send billions into its coffers which it will use to promote its violent agenda in the region and beyond.US President Barack Obama on Wednesday delivered a detailed defense of the world powers’ landmark nuclear accord with Iran, and lambasted Netanyahu and other vociferous critics inside the US for what he said was their failure to present a viable alternative to it.Taking a direct jab at Netanyahu, Obama said some critics claim Iran wants to “take over the world,” referencing a speech the prime minister made earlier in the month in which he claimed Iran has “the ultimate true aim of taking over the world.” This was “news to the Iranians,” Obama quipped during a press conference on the deal with reporters in the White House.But Obama agreed that “Israel has legitimate concerns about its security relative to Iran.” The regime in Tehran, he noted, “has proclaimed that Israel shouldn’t exist… has denied the Holocaust… has financed Hezbollah, and as a consequence there are missiles that are pointed toward Tel Aviv.”Therefore, he said, “I think there are very good reasons why Israelis are nervous about Iran’s position in the world generally, and I’ve said this to Prime Minister Netanyahu, I’ve said it directly to the Israeli people.”Still, he continued, “all those threats are compounded if Iran gets a nuclear weapon.”Times of Israel staff, AP and AFP contributed to this report.

I don’t believe it’s in our interest.”In response, Netanyahu asserted Thursday at a joint press conference with Hammond that Israel would have welcomed a deal that would “compel Iran to choose between a path to the bomb and sanctions relief.”“That’s the kind of deal that would be welcomed in Tel Aviv and here in Israel’s capital, Jerusalem,” Netanyahu said, pointedly referencing Hammond’s House of Commons mention of the Israeli government as “Tel Aviv.”Netanyahu said the agreement would enable Tehran to obtain a nuclear weapon whether it broke or kept to its terms. In order to realize its nuclear ambitions, Netanyahu said, Tehran could either cheat and overcome the “porous inspections mechanism,” or wait out the 10-year period capping uranium enrichment, after which it could achieve the necessary technology to develop nuclear arms.“This [waiting period] will able Iran to have the capacity to produce the enriched uranium for an entire nuclear arsenal with zero breakout time,” he said.In the meantime, Netanyahu said, the immediate economic sanctions relief awarded to Iran under the agreement would inject billions of dollars of revenue into its economy which would be used to finance terrorism in the region.“The alternative to this bad deal is not war,” he said, alluding to remarks by President Barack Obama on Wednesday. “The alternative is a better deal that would roll back Iran’s military nuclear program and tie the easing of restrictions on Iran’s nuclear program to changes in Iran’s behavior.”AP contributed to this report.
Only 10 percent of Israelis trust the US to thwart Tehran's ambitions-Poll: Israelis overwhelmingly certain Iran still wants nukes-Post-deal survey finds 70% of Israelis oppose nuclear agreement, and one-third support strike on Iranian military facilities-By Adiv Sterman July 16, 2015, 4:17 pm-THE TIMES OF ISRAEL
Three-quarters of the Israeli public believe the recent signing of the nuclear accord between world powers and Iran will not prevent the Islamic Republic from striving to acquire atomic weapons, and only 10 percent the population say they trust the US to thwart Tehran’s ambitions to produce unconventional arms, according to a poll conducted Wednesday by the Sarid Institute and published Thursday by Channel 10 news.The poll further found that 70% of Israelis oppose the nuclear deal, while a mere 10% support it. Twenty percent of respondents said they had no opinion on the matter. A third of respondents said Israel now had no choice but to strike Iran’s nuclear facilities, while 40% opposed military action against the Islamic Republic.Sixty percent think that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu should lead a campaign in the US Congress aimed at stopping the agreement from being implemented. Only 20% oppose such a campaign.Channel 10 did not state the number of people who took part in the survey.Under the deal announced Tuesday, Iran’s nuclear program will be scaled back and closely monitored as the US and world powers seek to cut off the Islamic Republic’s ability to develop an atomic weapon. In exchange, Iran will see biting economic sanctions gradually lifted, freeing up tens of billions of dollars in oil revenue and frozen assets.But Netanyahu and other critics say the deal should have neutralized and dismantled Iran’s military nuclear facilities, and warn that the deal paves Iran’s path to the bomb and will send billions into its coffers which it will use to promote its violent agenda in the region and beyond.US President Barack Obama on Wednesday delivered a detailed defense of the world powers’ landmark nuclear accord with Iran, and lambasted Netanyahu and other vociferous critics inside the US for what he said was their failure to present a viable alternative to it.Taking a direct jab at Netanyahu, Obama said some critics claim Iran wants to “take over the world,” referencing a speech the prime minister made earlier in the month in which he claimed Iran has “the ultimate true aim of taking over the world.” This was “news to the Iranians,” Obama quipped during a press conference on the deal with reporters in the White House.But Obama agreed that “Israel has legitimate concerns about its security relative to Iran.” The regime in Tehran, he noted, “has proclaimed that Israel shouldn’t exist… has denied the Holocaust… has financed Hezbollah, and as a consequence there are missiles that are pointed toward Tel Aviv.”Therefore, he said, “I think there are very good reasons why Israelis are nervous about Iran’s position in the world generally, and I’ve said this to Prime Minister Netanyahu, I’ve said it directly to the Israeli people.”Still, he continued, “all those threats are compounded if Iran gets a nuclear weapon.”Times of Israel staff, AP and AFP contributed to this report.
