Israel marks 70th anniversary of first diplomatic outpost-Ambassador to Poland hangs Star of David flag from Warsaw’s historic Bristol Hotel, which housed the Jewish state’s maiden mission in 1948-By AP-TOI-24 October 2018
WARSAW, Poland — Israel marked the 70th anniversary of its first diplomatic mission as a new nation Tuesday with a re-enactment in the city that hosted the outpost — Warsaw, Poland.Israeli Ambassador Anna Azari, flanked by other diplomats, hung the Israeli flag from a balcony of the historic Bristol Hotel in central Warsaw.Just as in 1948, a small crowd on the street below applauded and sang the Israeli national anthem.Israel chose the Bristol as the seat for its mission because the hotel was one of the few buildings that had not been destroyed by Germany during World War II. The Israeli Embassy in Poland is in a leafy residential neighborhood.During the ceremony, embassy officials showed a brief video of the 1948 ceremony establishing the mission. One key difference: While all the diplomats then were men, the ambassador and many other Israeli diplomats in Warsaw today are women.Holocaust survivor Marian Kalwary attended Tuesday’s reenactment of an event he witnessed as an 18-year-old at his mother’s urging.The Star of David on the Israeli flag he saw raised with pride that day was the same symbol that Warsaw’s Jews were forced to wear a few years earlier while confined to a ghetto a few blocks away and sent to death camps by Nazi German forces.Kalwary said his mother was very moved by the ceremony recognizing Israel’s place on the world stage, describing it as a moment he could never forget.The anniversary re-enactment follows efforts by Poland and Israel to repair their typically strong ties after a Polish law that sought to regulate what could be said publicly about the Holocaust caused tension early this year. A presidential adviser read out a letter of greeting from President Andrzej Duda on Tuesday.
Netanyahu on visit to Gaza border: Hamas ‘fully understands’ Israel’s messages-PM says terror group not a partner for dialogue, calls it a ‘theological junta,’ and says it is a far greater threat than before the ‘wretched, mistaken’ 2005 Gaza disengagement-By Michael Bachner-TOI-OCT 24,18
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Tuesday that Palestinian terror group Hamas is a greater threat than in the past, but added that it “fully understands” the messages Israel sends to it.“We are preparing for every scenario,” Netanyahu told local activists at a closed ceremony at the Sdot Negev regional council near the Gaza border.“We are dealing with a theological junta that has taken control of two million people,” Netanyahu said, referring to Hamas, the terror group which controls the Strip and openly seeks Israel’s destruction.“They numbered 3,000 people before the wretched, mistaken and tragic disengagement, while now they are 65,000 armed people,” he said, taking a jab at the 2005 evacuation by former premier Ariel Sharon of all Israeli settlements in Gaza, which also saw the Jewish state end its military presence in the Strip.Hawkish Israelis have long argued that the Disengagement Plan harmed the country’s security by enabling Hamas to seize control of Gaza and fire thousands of rockets at Israeli communities.“They are committed to our destruction and therefore are not partners for conversation in the diplomatic sense, but they fully understand our other messages and we won’t let them continue (with their violence),” the prime minister warned.“We also won’t let them dream about carrying out their plan. The first thing I’m committed to is security,” he said, adding that he will allow “no rockets, no mortars and no [incendiary] balloons.”Defense Minister Avigdor Liberman’s office said Tuesday evening that Israel would renew the supply of Qatari-purchased fuel into Gaza starting Wednesday, following relative calm this week along the border.Israel reopened the crossings into Gaza on Sunday, allowing people and goods in and out of the coastal enclave. Liberman’s office said at the time that a decision was yet to be made whether to allow fuel into the Strip.The past weekend saw a significant decrease in the amount of violence along the Gaza security fence compared to previous weeks, both in terms of the number of people participating in border riots and the intensity of the clashes.Israeli defense officials described the demonstrations as some of the quietest since the wave of protests dubbed the “March of Return” began on March 30.Israeli officials believe Hamas has changed its policies regarding the clashes and was working toward curbing violence at the rallies, which have become a near-daily occurrence, Hadashot TV news reported Friday.Amid the relative calm, the cabinet has reportedly been briefed on an emerging UN- and Egyptian-mediated agreement for a long-term ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, that would see Qatar pay for the Gaza Strip’s fuel, as well as fund the salaries of civil servants in the enclave.The deal will see the cessation of violent protests on the Strip’s border with Israel. In turn, Israel will allow Qatari-funded fuel to return to Gaza and boost power supply, Israel’s Kan public broadcaster reported Monday.While Israel believes such an accord would likely lead the Palestinian Authority to further cut funds to Gaza, it may retaliate by deducting any cuts from tax revenues it transfers annually to the PA.Kan noted that ministers are aware the deal would boost Qatar’s regional influence while providing Hamas with a significant diplomatic achievement as it circumvents the PA while coordinating with the UN.Egypt, alongside United Nations special coordinator for the Middle East peace process Nikolay Mladenov, has recently played a key role in attempts to mediate a long-term truce between Hamas and Israel.Since March 30, Palestinians in the Gaza Strip have participated in a series of protests and riots that have mostly involved the burning of tires and rock-throwing along the security fence, but have also seen shooting attacks and bombings as well as the sending of incendiary balloons and kites into Israel.Some 157 Palestinians have been killed and thousands more have been injured in the clashes with IDF troops, according to AP figures. Hamas, which seeks to destroy Israel, has acknowledged that dozens of the dead were its members. One Israeli soldier was shot dead by a sniper on the border earlier this year.Judah Ari Gross and Times of Israel staff contributed to this report.
Jerusalem provides first ever municipal waste removal services to Shuafat camp-City sanitation workers enter Palestinian refugee camp as part of outgoing Mayor Barkat’s plan to replace UNRWA and oust it from capital-By TOI staff-OCT 24,18
Jerusalem’s city hall said Tuesday that 15 municipal sanitation workers entered the Shuafat Palestinian refugee camp for the first time ever to carry out trash removal and other cleaning services, in what has been branded part of outgoing Mayor Nir Barkat’s plan to expel UNRWA from Jerusalem and “end the refugee lie.”The move was ordered by Barkat, who wants to outlaw the UN agency for Palestinian refugees from operating in the city and providing services to Palestinian residents in the camp which was founded in 1965 and is home to some 20,000 residents.According to the city, workers found hundreds of tons of untended garbage and construction waste. They will start entering the camp daily to gradually take over what the city called UNRWA’s “inadequate services.”The municipality will also start to provide “far superior” education, health, and other services to the area, to replace UNRWA, it said in a statement.While in the Jerusalem city limits, municipal workers, police, and others have never entered the Shuafat camp, which is situated beyond the West Bank security barrier, leading to charges of official neglect. Barkat, who has been mayor since 2008, has blamed the shortfall in services on UNRWA, which has recently had its funding slashed by the US amid accusations that it serves as a political tool against Israel.The move came a week before Jerusalem is set to choose a new mayor. Barkat, who visited the Shuafat camp Tuesday, is not running for re-election and it is not clear if his successor will continue the services.“The era of UNRWA in Jerusalem is over,” Barkat said during his visit. “The time has come to stop the refugee lie in Jerusalem. There are no refugees in our city, only residents. They must receive their services from the municipality like any other resident.“We are implementing the first phase of the UNRWA evacuation plan by taking responsibility for the cleanliness of the camp, and in the near future, together with the government, we will also provide education, welfare, and health services there until full sovereignty is achieved,” he added. “The United States does not want UNRWA, Israel does not want UNRWA, and the residents do not want UNRWA.”Earlier this month, Barkat detailed his proposal, according to which the seven UNRWA-run schools — with a total of 1,800 students — which operate without a license from the Education Ministry will be closed at the end of the current academic year, and the pupils absorbed into existing municipal schools.The municipality will also issue closure orders for UNRWA’s medical centers, which operate without approval from the Health Ministry, and construct a new public health center in their place, Barkat said.Existing UNRWA-run welfare programs operating within the Shuafat camp and nearby Kufr Aqeb will continue but will be transferred to the governance municipality welfare and employment services, according to Barkat’s plan.In March, Barkat announced he would not seek a third term in municipal elections scheduled for October 30 and will instead run for Knesset on the Likud party ticket.His replacement as mayor would not be bound by the plans prepared by Barkat’s committee.The United States was the biggest contributor to the agency’s budget in 2017, donating 350 million dollars. The US State Department said recently it would no longer fund UNRWA because it was “irredeemably flawed.”In its announcement of the cuts to UNRWA, the US State Department castigated the agency for what it called “failed practices,” and indicated that it rejected the criteria by which UNRWA defines Palestinian refugees, whereby the UN agency confers refugee status not only on original refugees but on their millions of descendants.UNRWA has provided aid to millions of Palestinians since it was established nearly 70 years ago, just after the 1948 Israel-Arab war, known in Israel as the War of Independence, in 1948.UNRWA recognizes over 5 million Palestinians as refugees, even though there are only several tens of thousands of original Palestinian refugees still alive. Palestinian leaders demand a “right of return” to today’s Israel for all these millions — a demand Israel sees as a bid to destroy Israel as a majority-Jewish state. Because UNRWA, uniquely, confers refugee status on descendants of the original refugees, Israel charges UNRWA with perpetuating that demand for a “return” of millions. Under the UN’s global criteria, it is estimated that there would be only some half a million recognized Palestinian refugees.Stuart Winer contributed to this report.
U.S. warships pass through Taiwan Strait amid China tensions-[Reuters]-YAHOONEWS-By Yimou Lee, Idrees Ali and Phil Stewart-October 24, 2018
TAIPEI/WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The United States sent two warships through the Taiwan Strait on Monday in the second such operation this year, as the U.S. military increases the frequency of transits through the strategic waterway despite opposition from China.The voyage risks further heightening tensions with China but will likely be viewed in self-ruled Taiwan as a sign of support from President Donald Trump's government amid growing friction between Taipei and Beijing."The ships' transit through the Taiwan Strait demonstrates the U.S. commitment to a free and open Indo-Pacific," Commander Nate Christensen, deputy spokesman for U.S. Pacific Fleet, said in a statement."The U.S. Navy will continue to fly, sail and operate anywhere international law allows," he added.Taiwan's defense ministry said it closely monitored the operation and was able to "maintain the security of the seas and the airspace" as it occurred.Beijing, which considers Taiwan a breakaway province of "one China", had already expressed "serious concern" to the United States, foreign ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying told a regular briefing on Tuesday."The Taiwan issue concerns China's sovereignty and territory, and is the most important, most sensitive issue in China-U.S. relations," she said.China urged the United States to handle the Taiwan issue cautiously and appropriately to promote peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait, she added.Speaking to reporters on Tuesday, Trump said he was unconcerned about any negative Chinese reaction."I'm not worried about anything; I don't worry about things," he said in answer to a question.Reuters was first to report U.S. consideration of the sensitive operation on Saturday.The U.S. Navy conducted a similar mission in the strait's international waters in July, which had been the first such voyage in about a year. The latest operation shows the U.S. Navy is increasing the pace of strait passages.Washington has no formal ties with Taiwan, but is bound by law to help it defend itself and is the island's main source of arms. The Pentagon says Washington has sold Taiwan more than $15 billion in weaponry since 2010.-STATUS QUO?-China has been ramping up pressure to assert its sovereignty over the island. It raised concerns over U.S. policy toward Taiwan in talks last week with U.S. Defense Secretary Jim Mattis in Singapore.As the United States prepared for a fresh passage through the strait, it told China's military that its overall policy toward Taiwan was unchanged.Mattis delivered that message to China's Defense Minister Wei Fenghe personally on Thursday, on the sidelines of an Asian security forum."Minister Wei raised Taiwan and concerns about our policy. The Secretary reassured Minister Wei that we haven't changed our Taiwan policy, our one China policy," Randall Schriver, a U.S. assistant secretary of defense who helps guide Pentagon policy in Asia, told reporters traveling with Mattis."So it was, I think, a familiar exchange."Taiwan is only one of a growing number of flashpoints in the U.S.-China relationship, which also include a bitter trade war, U.S. sanctions and China's increasingly muscular military posture in the South China Sea.Taiwan's relations with China have deteriorated since the island's President Tsai Ing-wen, of the independence-leaning Democratic Progressive Party, swept to power in 2016.Beijing, which has never renounced the use of force to bring Taiwan under its control, responded to the July passage with a warning to the United States to avoid jeopardizing "peace and stability" in the strategic waterway.It has also viewed U.S. overtures toward Taiwan with alarm, including its unveiling a new de facto embassy in Taiwan and passage of the Taiwan Travel Act, which encourages U.S. officials to visit the island.Military experts say the balance of power between Taiwan and China has shifted decisively in China's favor in recent years, and China could easily overwhelm the island unless U.S. forces came quickly to Taiwan's aid.China has also alarmed Taiwan by ramping up military exercises this year, including flying bombers and other military aircraft around the island and sending its aircraft carrier through the Taiwan Strait.(Reporting by Yimou Lee in Taipei and Lee Chyen Yee in Singapore; Additional reporting by Ben Blanchard in Beijing and David Brunnstrom and Matt Spetalnick in Washington; Writing by Phil Stewart in Washington; Editing by Toby Chopra, Bill Berkrot, Nick Macfie and Dan Grebler)

Category 3 Hurricane Willa about to make landfall in Mexico-[Associated Press]-MARCO UGARTE-YAHOONEWS-October 23, 2018
MAZATLAN, Mexico (AP) — Hurricane Willa swept onto Mexico's Pacific mainland with 120 mph (195 kph) winds Tuesday evening, threatening a major resort area along with fishing villages and farms after roaring over an offshore penal colony.The U.S. National Hurricane Center said in an evening bulletin that the eye of the dangerous Category 3 storm was about to make landfall, and little variation in strength was expected beforehand.It warned people not to venture outside during "the relative calm of the eye, since hazardous winds will suddenly increase" as it passes.The storm's core was hitting a stretch of coast about 50 miles (80 kilometers) south of Mazatlan, a resort city that is home to high-rise hotels and about 500,000 people, including many U.S. and Canadian expatriates.Alberto Hernandez, a hotel worker in Teacapan, close to where the storm was making landfall, expressed confidence that the building would hold up. He and his son, who also works at the hotel, were staying on the job, though the rest of his family had left the area."We've had rain all day. There is nobody in the streets. Everything is closed," Hernandez said. "But not everyone wanted to leave, even though authorities made it clear that he who stays does so at his own peril."Torrential rains began in the afternoon, and emergency officials said they evacuated more than 4,250 people in coastal towns and set up 58 shelters ahead of the dangerous storm.The storm also battered the Islas Marias, a group of Mexican islands about 60 miles (100 kilometers) off the mainland that include a nature preserve and a federal prison. Federal authorities declined to comment on precautions that were taken at the prison, citing security concerns.As Willa closed in, the beach in Mazatlan almost disappeared, with waves slamming against the coastal boulevard under looming black clouds. A few surfers took advantage of the high waves even as workers boarded up windows on hotels, shops and homes. Schools were closed and the streets nearly empty.Some families went to a Mazatlan convention center, which opened its doors as a shelter. They spread out blankets along the walls and waited for the storm."The house we're living in is not well built," said Sergio Ernesto Meri Franco, who rents a studio apartment.The federal government issued a decree of "extraordinary emergency" for 19 municipalities in Nayarit and Sinaloa states.Bob Swanson, who is from Saskatchewan, Canada, and spends two to six months of the year in his house in the Cerritos neighborhood near the shore in Mazatlan, said he filled his washing machine with water, filled his home fuel tank and gassed up his car in case he needs to head into the mountains for safety."I'm kind of waiting with bated breath," he said over the phone, adding that he was sitting on his porch and smoking a cigarette.Hurricane-force winds extended 35 miles (55 kilometers) from Willa's center, and tropical storm-force winds were felt up to 115 miles (185 kilometers) out.Forecasters said the hurricane could bring 6 to 12 inches (15 to 30 centimeters) of rain — with up to 18 inches (45 centimeters) in some places — to parts of Jalisco, Nayarit and Sinaloa states, with flash flooding and landslides possible in mountainous areas.Farther to the south, the remnants of Tropical Storm Vicente continued to bring heavy rain that caused deadly flooding and mudslides. Federal disaster agency chief Luis Felipe Puente said 11 people died as a result of Vicente. Local officials earlier put the figure at 12.___Associated Press writer Isabella Cota in Mexico City contributed to this report.

UN rights committee slams French burqa ban as a violation of religious rights-France rejects criticism from panel chaired by Israeli prof., says full-face veils are ‘incompatible with the principle of fraternity’ and democratic values-By Duncan Crawford-TOI-24 October 2018
GENEVA, Switzerland (AFP) — The UN Human Rights Committee on Tuesday criticized France’s so-called burqa ban, saying the law “violated” the rights of two women who were fined for wearing full-face veils in public.The committee, headed by Israel’s Yuval Shany, called for the women to be compensated and for a review of the 2010 law that forbids people from publicly wearing clothing that conceals their face.“The French law disproportionately harmed the petitioners’ right to manifest their religious beliefs,” the committee said in a statement.It added it was not convinced by France’s claim that the ban was necessary for security and social reasons.The two French women were convicted in 2012 for wearing the niqab, a veil with a slit for the eyes.“The ban, rather than protecting fully veiled women, could have the opposite effect of confining them to their homes, impeding their access to public services and marginalizing them,” the committee said.Responding to the criticism, the French foreign ministry said covering one’s face was “incompatible with the principle of fraternity and the basic values of a democratic and open society.”The ministry noted that the European Court of Human Rights had found the ban did not violate niqab wearers’ religious freedom, and said it would argue its position in a report to the UN committee on the law.-‘Too sweeping’-The UN committee, which is made up of independent experts, ensures countries stick to their human rights commitments but does not have enforcement powers.It said the French ban was “too sweeping” but that governments could still make people show their faces in specific circumstances.The decision reignites a debate that has raged in France for years over Muslim headwear and other religious clothing.The debate has regularly pitted supporters of France’s secular constitution against those who argue for religious freedoms.The 2010 law had strong public support when brought in under former president Nicolas Sarkozy, but many said it targeted a tiny minority of Muslim women in France who wear full-face veils.Condemned by critics for pandering to far-right voters but backed by many women’s rights activists, the law made France the first European country to ban garments that cover the face.An estimated five million Muslims live in France and women who ignore the ban can be fined up to 150 euros ($170).“The vast majority of cases where people have been stopped for checks and have been condemned to fines… have been women wearing the niqab,” committee member Ilze Brands-Kehris told AFP.“In the context of fewer than 2,000 women wearing the full-face veil in France… [the law has] a vast disproportionate effect on those women.”Other EU countries, including Denmark, Austria, and Belgium, have also implemented similar full-face veil bans.-‘Oppression of women’-The committee’s stance contrasts with a 2014 European Court of Human Rights ruling which upheld the French ban.The court found that France was justified in introducing the ban in the interests of social cohesion as it was “not expressly based on the religious connotation of the clothing.”In August, the committee also criticized France over the 2008 sacking of an employee worker who refused to remove her veil at work, arguing it interfered with her right to express her religion.The so-called Baby Loup case, named after the nursery, had already faced multiple legal battles in the French courts.Debate about the effectiveness of the “burqa ban” also made headlines this month after it was revealed that French gangster Redoine Faid, who broke out of jail in July using a helicopter and was recaptured three months later, had at times worn a burqa as a disguise.Police say Faid was caught after officers saw someone wearing a burqa but walking like a man.
Second migrant caravan in Guatemala heads toward Mexico-[Reuters]-By Delphine Schrank and Sofia Menchu-YAHOONEWS-October 24, 2018
TAPACHULA, Mexico/GUATEMALA CITY (Reuters) - A group of over a thousand Central Americans in Guatemala headed toward the Mexican border on Tuesday, as a larger caravan of migrants that has angered U.S. President Donald Trump paused in southern Mexico on its planned journey toward the U.S. border.Trump has vowed to begin cutting millions of dollars in aid to Central America and called the caravan in Mexico a national emergency as he seeks to boost his Republican Party's chances in the Nov. 6 congressional elections.The caravan, mostly Honduran migrants fleeing violence and poverty at home, is currently in the town of Huixtla in Chiapas state, around 31 miles (50 km) north of the Guatemalan border and a distant 1,100 miles (1,800 km) from the United States.Mexico's government said in a statement on Tuesday that it had received 1,699 requests for refugee status, including children. The government estimates there are around 4,500 people in the group.Hundreds of migrants rested in Huixtla on Tuesday. Religious groups and companies donated clothes, and local authorities provided vaccines, food and drink."When we heard the caravan was coming (we joined) ... people in Guatemala are also suffering from poverty. So this is an opportunity to improve my family's life," said Elsa Romero, a Guatemalan mother of four in Huixtla.Migrant Alexander Fernandez said the column planned to move again early on Wednesday.In neighboring Guatemala, a separate group of least 1,000 migrants, also mostly Hondurans, headed out slowly on foot from the eastern town of Chiquimula, a Reuters witness said. Some local media put the number in the column above 2,000."We know this won't end in a few days, and will be a long progress of migration," said Mauro Verzeletti, director of the Casa del Migrante, a migrant shelter in Guatemala City.He said that the shelter had attended to more than 11,000 migrants in the past week.Other caravans are expected to set out from Central America in coming days, encouraged by reports that it is a safer way for migrants to undertake the perilous journey north.Trump and fellow Republicans have sought to make the caravan and immigration issues in the mid-term election, which will determine whether their party keeps control of the U.S. Senate and U.S. House of Representatives.-MIDDLE EAST RUMOR-Trump and some conservative activists in Washington have asserted in recent days that "criminals and unknown Middle Easterners" were mixed in with the caravan in Mexico, but have produced no evidence.Those claims have not been corroborated, a U.S. counter-terrorism official told Reuters on Tuesday.The official, who asked not to be identified, said U.S. authorities were looking for any signs that militants had attempted to infiltrate the group but had found nothing so far.Meanwhile, the U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations, Nikki Haley, posted on Twitter on Tuesday that there was a "need to look at political motives behind the caravan.""Honduran politicians allied with Venezuelan & Cuban socialist dictators are encouraging the caravan to undermine US-friendly gov't of (President Juan Orlando) Hernandez," said Haley, who visited Honduras and Guatemala this year.Vice President Mike Pence said in comments to reporters in Washington that Hernandez had told him that the caravan "was organized by leftist organizations and financed by Venezuela."Neither Haley nor Pence provided evidence.Honduran authorities say that at least two men have died so far on roads during the advance of the migrant columns. One of the men fell off a truck in Mexico, and the other died trying to get onto a truck in Guatemala, authorities said.Mexico, which has refused Trump's demands that it pay for a border wall between the countries, tries to walk a fine line between showing solidarity with the Central American migrants and responding to Washington's demands to control its borders.Mexico hopes to disperse the convoy long before it can reach the border, telling migrants to register with authorities in order to submit applications for asylum in Mexico.That process can last weeks, and migrants are supposed to stay where they register while applications are processed. If they violate those rules, they face deportation.(Reporting by Delphine Schrank and Sofia Menchu; Additional reporting by Orfa Mejia in Tegucigalpa, Luis Echeverria in Chiquimula, Jeff Mason and Mark Hosenball in Washington and Michelle Nichols in New York; Writing by Dave Graham and Daina Beth Solomon; editing by Grant McCool and Rosalba O'Brien)
Arrests of migrant families at U.S.-Mexico border increase: data-[Reuters]-By Yeganeh Torbati-YAHOONEWS-October 24, 2018
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. agents arrested nearly 17,000 members of family units attempting to cross the U.S. border with Mexico in September, a 31 percent increase over the previous month, according to official statistics released on Tuesday.In a news briefing with reporters on Tuesday, Trump administration officials pointed to the increase in migrant families as evidence of a "border crisis" because those groups are more difficult for immigration enforcement officials to detain and deport because of protections granted by U.S. law to migrant children.President Donald Trump's administration has expressed alarm at the change in the makeup of migrants attempting to cross into the United States from mostly single adults to children and families traveling together.About 40 percent of those apprehended in fiscal 2017 and 2018 were unaccompanied children or families with children, compared with 10 percent in 2012, according to the Migration Policy Institute, a non-partisan think tank.According to numbers released on Tuesday, U.S. border officials arrested nearly 397,000 people in total at the southern border in the 2018 fiscal year that ended Sept. 30, a significant increase over the 304,000 apprehended in 2017 but largely in line with arrest trends of migrants at the U.S. southern border over the past decade.Border arrests dropped in the months after Trump took office in January 2017 but have rebounded over the past year. Experts believe that Trump's anti-immigrant rhetoric dissuaded potential migrants from crossing in the first months of his presidency.Trump has vowed to begin cutting millions of dollars in aid to Central America over a caravan of thousands of mostly Honduran migrants fleeing violence and poverty at home.He has called the caravan, which is currently in southern Mexico, a national emergency as he seeks to boost his Republican Party's chances of maintaining control of Congress in the Nov. 6 elections.Earlier this year, Trump's administration tried to deter families from traveling to the border by instituting a "zero tolerance" policy, separating thousands of children as their parents were prosecuted.About 2,500 children and parents were separated before Trump abandoned the policy in June after a public outcry. A federal judge ordered the families reunited, a process that is still incomplete.'NOT SUSTAINABLE'-In Texas' Rio Grande Valley (RGV), where more migrants are arrested crossing illegally than in any other section of the 2,000-mile-long (3,200-km) border with Mexico, apprehensions continued to rise in October, said the Border Patrol sector's Chief Patrol Agent Manuel Padilla.RGV made over 12,700 arrests in the first three weeks of October, marking a 112 percent increase over the same period of 2017, Padilla said in a phone interview.Sixty-four percent of those detentions were of family members or unaccompanied children from countries other than Mexico, up from a rate of 51 percent in all of fiscal year 2018, Padilla said. Over 5,400 family units were detained in the first half of October, up 300 percent from the same period of 2017."Right now we're at maximum capacity when it comes to detention, and so is ICE (U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement). Our detention capacity is just breaking at the seams," said Padilla, predicting border-wide family apprehensions would rise again in October. "This is not sustainable."(Reporting by Yeganeh Torbati in Washington; Additional reporting by Andrew Hay in New Mexico; Editing by Peter Cooney)

Palestinian Authority PM calls for Chinese role in peace process-China’s VP Wang Qishan travels to West Bank before meeting with Rivlin, praises Israel’s ‘tremendous human capital’-By TOI staff-24 October 2018
China’s vice president visited the West Bank city of Ramallah Tuesday to meet with Palestinian Authority Prime Minister Rami Hamdallah, who called for greater Chinese involvement in the Israeli-Palestinian peace process.According to the PA’s official WAFA news agency, Hamdallah told Wang Qishan that Israel and the United States have greatly undermined peace talks and the two-state solution, pointing to settlement construction in the West Bank and moves by the Trump administration such as the recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital.Noting China is a permanent member of the United Nations Security Council, Hamdallah told Qishan that Beijing should take an active role in the peace process and back PA President Mahmoud Abbas’ call for an international conference on the issue. He also said China should pressure Israel over alleged violations of international law, according to WAFA.Though a member of the Security Council, China has historically had a minor role in peace talks, which have been largely led by the US. It is also not a member of the Middle East Quartet, which includes countries and international organizations involved in mediating the Israeli–Palestinian peace process.While in the West Bank, Qishan also visited the Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem, where Christians believe Jesus was born.Qishan later met with President Reuven Rivlin at his official residence in Jerusalem.“The relations between the two countries are based on a long shared history, as you mentioned, and also on partnership in innovation,” Qishan told Rivlin, according to the president’s office.“Israel does not have large natural resources, but the miracle of development rests on the tremendous human capital of this nation. Human beings are the most precious asset.”Rivlin for his part boasted Israel-China ties are “excellent — based on mutual respect, a shared past and a promising future.”Qishan is the highest ranking Chinese official to visit Israel since then-president Jiang Zemin’s trip in 2000.Wang arrived in Israel Monday for a four-day visit focusing on high-level talks on economic cooperation.Shortly after arriving on a special Air China flight, Wang, the country’s eighth-highest-ranking official, headed to the Old City of Jerusalem, where he visited the Western Wall and the Church of the Holy Sepulchre.The Old City is in East Jerusalem, which Beijing does not recognize as Israeli territory.Nonetheless, Wang was accompanied during there by two senior officials from the Foreign Ministry: Chief of protocol Reuven Meron and deputy director-general for Asia and the Pacific Gilad Cohen.He later was hosted for dinner by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who called Qishan’s visit a “sign of our growing friendship.”Later this week, Wang is to co-host the 4th meeting of the China-Israel Joint Committee on Innovation Cooperation together with Netanyahu.Beijing and Jerusalem are both seeking to advance issues of mutual interest during this week’s meetings, such as a possible free trade agreement or a 10-year multiple entry visa agreement for tourists and businesspeople, according to the ministry.Ahead of his visit, Israeli officials were quoted as warning of getting too close to China as the Asian giant could pose a possible security risk.Some in Jerusalem have expressed worries about Chinese companies participating in massive infrastructure projects and about the sale of Israeli technology to Beijing.Officials have reportedly warned that some infrastructure projects could introduce the possibility of China spying on some of Israel’s most sensitive assets.Adam Rasgon and Raphael Ahren contributed to this report.
Macron to unveil peace plan soon if Trump doesn’t, top diplomat said to tell MKs-France will fill the vacuum if the US doesn’t launch its initiative next month, Foreign Ministry’s Alon Ushpiz reported to brief Knesset panel-By TOI staff-24 October 2018
If US President Donald Trump does not present his Israeli-Palestinian peace plan next month, France’s President Emmanuel Macron will issue a proposal of his own, a senior Israeli diplomat reportedly told Knesset members at a closed-door briefing.Alon Ushpiz, the Foreign Ministry’s political director, testified to the Knesset’s powerful Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee on Monday, in a closed session, that France is waiting out November 6’s US midterm elections, but that if Trump does not present his long-awaited plan in the first few weeks after that vote, Macron will publicize his own formula, TV news reports said.The reports, on Israel’s Channel 10 and Hadashot TV, quoted MKs who were at the session. The Foreign Ministry in Jerusalem said the reports contained inaccuracies.Channel 10 said Macron had instructed his foreign ministry in late August to explore new ideas for resolving the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and that the French president had now signaled to Trump that if the US does not move ahead, Paris will. The Prime Minister’s Office and the Foreign Ministry were spending considerable time discussing the possible Macron plan, the TV reports said.A spokesperson for the Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee said the reports “do not properly reflect” Ushpiz’s remarks to lawmakers.“Naturally, due to the [closed] forum, we cannot elaborate beyond this,” the spokesperson said.The reports came a day after Channel 10 quoted Trump last month telling Macron that he was prepared to pressure Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to accept the administration’s long-gestating peace initiative.Trump and Netanyahu are reportedly set to travel to Paris around November 11 for World War I centenary ceremonies hosted by Macron.Also Monday, senior White House adviser Jared Kushner expressed impatience with the Israeli-Palestinian deadlock, telling CNN: “The status quo between Israel and the Palestinians is not acceptable. The situation is only getting worse. At some point, the leaders will have to take a bold step and make compromise. We hope to find leaderships that are ready to do so.”According to Tuesday evening’s TV reports, Ushpiz also told MKs on Monday that Israel expects the Democrats to make gains in next month’s midterm elections, and that this would have impact and implications for Israel. He reportedly called the midterms “critical” for Israel, and said Israel anticipates the Democrats will make gains in Congress and “things won’t be the same.”Trump said at a meeting with Netanyahu last month that he expected to publish his plan within four months. Speaking to The Times of Israel last month, Trump’s special envoy for international negotiations, Jason Greenblatt, said the plan “will include a resolution to all of the core issues, including the refugee issue,” and will “be heavily focused on Israeli security needs.”Greenblatt added: “But we also want to be fair to the Palestinians. We have tried hard to find a good balance. Each side will find things in this plan that they don’t like. There are no perfect solutions.”Kushner said Monday that a “reasonable” Palestinian leadership will be willing to negotiate with Israel based on the Trump plan.The Palestinian Authority has preemptively rejected the plan and has boycotted the Trump administration since it recognized Jerusalem as Israel’s capital last year.Ushpiz also reportedly told MKs that Israeli officials “are not managing” to persuade visiting diplomats and administration officials to accept Israeli positions when it comes to Gaza, because the Israeli narrative pales by comparison to the simple reality of the humanitarian situation in the Hamas-run Strip.He also reportedly said that the Foreign Ministry has not been formally tasked by Netanyahu — who is also Israel’s foreign minister — with trying to convince countries to move their embassies to Jerusalem.“It’s a political matter,” Ushpiz reportedly said. “It hasn’t been defined as a mission for the Foreign Ministry.” Relocating an embassy sometimes requires Israel “to intervene in the internal affairs of countries — and that does not work to our benefit,” Ushpiz reportedly added.The US moved its embassy to Jerusalem in May. Guatemala and Paraguay followed suit, but Paraguay returned its embassy to Tel Aviv last month after a change in government.According to Channel 10 on Monday, Trump told Macron on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly in September he was willing to “be tough” on Israel in peace negotiations. Such a move would mark a significant shift in the US approach to peace talks so far, which has seen a number of concessions to Israel and punitive measures against Ramallah, stoking Palestinian anger and a boycott of efforts to jump-start peace talks.According to the report, which cited four Western diplomats with knowledge of the matter, Trump told Macron: “I’ve given a lot to Netanyahu. I moved the embassy to Jerusalem… We give Israel $5 billion a year. I can be tough with Netanyahu on the peace plan, just like I’ve been tough on the Palestinians.”When Macron told the US leader that he was under the impression that Netanyahu preferred the status quo over making progress on a peace deal, Trump reportedly replied: “You know, Emmanuel, I’m very close to reaching that same conclusion.”Responding to the report, a White House official told The Times of Israel that “the president believes that the prime minister is committed to pursuing a comprehensive and lasting peace between Israel and the Palestinians.” Trump, the official added, “has faith in the prime minister’s efforts.”The reported comments to Macron took place three days before Trump, during a meeting with Netanyahu at the UN, said he favors the two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, seemingly signaling a reversal in the administration’s previous refusal to endorse the formula. He later backtracked.

Israel marks 70th anniversary of first diplomatic outpost-Ambassador to Poland hangs Star of David flag from Warsaw’s historic Bristol Hotel, which housed the Jewish state’s maiden mission in 1948-By AP-TOI-24 October 2018
WARSAW, Poland — Israel marked the 70th anniversary of its first diplomatic mission as a new nation Tuesday with a re-enactment in the city that hosted the outpost — Warsaw, Poland.Israeli Ambassador Anna Azari, flanked by other diplomats, hung the Israeli flag from a balcony of the historic Bristol Hotel in central Warsaw.Just as in 1948, a small crowd on the street below applauded and sang the Israeli national anthem.Israel chose the Bristol as the seat for its mission because the hotel was one of the few buildings that had not been destroyed by Germany during World War II. The Israeli Embassy in Poland is in a leafy residential neighborhood.During the ceremony, embassy officials showed a brief video of the 1948 ceremony establishing the mission. One key difference: While all the diplomats then were men, the ambassador and many other Israeli diplomats in Warsaw today are women.Holocaust survivor Marian Kalwary attended Tuesday’s reenactment of an event he witnessed as an 18-year-old at his mother’s urging.The Star of David on the Israeli flag he saw raised with pride that day was the same symbol that Warsaw’s Jews were forced to wear a few years earlier while confined to a ghetto a few blocks away and sent to death camps by Nazi German forces.Kalwary said his mother was very moved by the ceremony recognizing Israel’s place on the world stage, describing it as a moment he could never forget.The anniversary re-enactment follows efforts by Poland and Israel to repair their typically strong ties after a Polish law that sought to regulate what could be said publicly about the Holocaust caused tension early this year. A presidential adviser read out a letter of greeting from President Andrzej Duda on Tuesday.
Netanyahu on visit to Gaza border: Hamas ‘fully understands’ Israel’s messages-PM says terror group not a partner for dialogue, calls it a ‘theological junta,’ and says it is a far greater threat than before the ‘wretched, mistaken’ 2005 Gaza disengagement-By Michael Bachner-TOI-OCT 24,18
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Tuesday that Palestinian terror group Hamas is a greater threat than in the past, but added that it “fully understands” the messages Israel sends to it.“We are preparing for every scenario,” Netanyahu told local activists at a closed ceremony at the Sdot Negev regional council near the Gaza border.“We are dealing with a theological junta that has taken control of two million people,” Netanyahu said, referring to Hamas, the terror group which controls the Strip and openly seeks Israel’s destruction.“They numbered 3,000 people before the wretched, mistaken and tragic disengagement, while now they are 65,000 armed people,” he said, taking a jab at the 2005 evacuation by former premier Ariel Sharon of all Israeli settlements in Gaza, which also saw the Jewish state end its military presence in the Strip.Hawkish Israelis have long argued that the Disengagement Plan harmed the country’s security by enabling Hamas to seize control of Gaza and fire thousands of rockets at Israeli communities.“They are committed to our destruction and therefore are not partners for conversation in the diplomatic sense, but they fully understand our other messages and we won’t let them continue (with their violence),” the prime minister warned.“We also won’t let them dream about carrying out their plan. The first thing I’m committed to is security,” he said, adding that he will allow “no rockets, no mortars and no [incendiary] balloons.”Defense Minister Avigdor Liberman’s office said Tuesday evening that Israel would renew the supply of Qatari-purchased fuel into Gaza starting Wednesday, following relative calm this week along the border.Israel reopened the crossings into Gaza on Sunday, allowing people and goods in and out of the coastal enclave. Liberman’s office said at the time that a decision was yet to be made whether to allow fuel into the Strip.The past weekend saw a significant decrease in the amount of violence along the Gaza security fence compared to previous weeks, both in terms of the number of people participating in border riots and the intensity of the clashes.Israeli defense officials described the demonstrations as some of the quietest since the wave of protests dubbed the “March of Return” began on March 30.Israeli officials believe Hamas has changed its policies regarding the clashes and was working toward curbing violence at the rallies, which have become a near-daily occurrence, Hadashot TV news reported Friday.Amid the relative calm, the cabinet has reportedly been briefed on an emerging UN- and Egyptian-mediated agreement for a long-term ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, that would see Qatar pay for the Gaza Strip’s fuel, as well as fund the salaries of civil servants in the enclave.The deal will see the cessation of violent protests on the Strip’s border with Israel. In turn, Israel will allow Qatari-funded fuel to return to Gaza and boost power supply, Israel’s Kan public broadcaster reported Monday.While Israel believes such an accord would likely lead the Palestinian Authority to further cut funds to Gaza, it may retaliate by deducting any cuts from tax revenues it transfers annually to the PA.Kan noted that ministers are aware the deal would boost Qatar’s regional influence while providing Hamas with a significant diplomatic achievement as it circumvents the PA while coordinating with the UN.Egypt, alongside United Nations special coordinator for the Middle East peace process Nikolay Mladenov, has recently played a key role in attempts to mediate a long-term truce between Hamas and Israel.Since March 30, Palestinians in the Gaza Strip have participated in a series of protests and riots that have mostly involved the burning of tires and rock-throwing along the security fence, but have also seen shooting attacks and bombings as well as the sending of incendiary balloons and kites into Israel.Some 157 Palestinians have been killed and thousands more have been injured in the clashes with IDF troops, according to AP figures. Hamas, which seeks to destroy Israel, has acknowledged that dozens of the dead were its members. One Israeli soldier was shot dead by a sniper on the border earlier this year.Judah Ari Gross and Times of Israel staff contributed to this report.
Jerusalem provides first ever municipal waste removal services to Shuafat camp-City sanitation workers enter Palestinian refugee camp as part of outgoing Mayor Barkat’s plan to replace UNRWA and oust it from capital-By TOI staff-OCT 24,18
Jerusalem’s city hall said Tuesday that 15 municipal sanitation workers entered the Shuafat Palestinian refugee camp for the first time ever to carry out trash removal and other cleaning services, in what has been branded part of outgoing Mayor Nir Barkat’s plan to expel UNRWA from Jerusalem and “end the refugee lie.”The move was ordered by Barkat, who wants to outlaw the UN agency for Palestinian refugees from operating in the city and providing services to Palestinian residents in the camp which was founded in 1965 and is home to some 20,000 residents.According to the city, workers found hundreds of tons of untended garbage and construction waste. They will start entering the camp daily to gradually take over what the city called UNRWA’s “inadequate services.”The municipality will also start to provide “far superior” education, health, and other services to the area, to replace UNRWA, it said in a statement.While in the Jerusalem city limits, municipal workers, police, and others have never entered the Shuafat camp, which is situated beyond the West Bank security barrier, leading to charges of official neglect. Barkat, who has been mayor since 2008, has blamed the shortfall in services on UNRWA, which has recently had its funding slashed by the US amid accusations that it serves as a political tool against Israel.The move came a week before Jerusalem is set to choose a new mayor. Barkat, who visited the Shuafat camp Tuesday, is not running for re-election and it is not clear if his successor will continue the services.“The era of UNRWA in Jerusalem is over,” Barkat said during his visit. “The time has come to stop the refugee lie in Jerusalem. There are no refugees in our city, only residents. They must receive their services from the municipality like any other resident.“We are implementing the first phase of the UNRWA evacuation plan by taking responsibility for the cleanliness of the camp, and in the near future, together with the government, we will also provide education, welfare, and health services there until full sovereignty is achieved,” he added. “The United States does not want UNRWA, Israel does not want UNRWA, and the residents do not want UNRWA.”Earlier this month, Barkat detailed his proposal, according to which the seven UNRWA-run schools — with a total of 1,800 students — which operate without a license from the Education Ministry will be closed at the end of the current academic year, and the pupils absorbed into existing municipal schools.The municipality will also issue closure orders for UNRWA’s medical centers, which operate without approval from the Health Ministry, and construct a new public health center in their place, Barkat said.Existing UNRWA-run welfare programs operating within the Shuafat camp and nearby Kufr Aqeb will continue but will be transferred to the governance municipality welfare and employment services, according to Barkat’s plan.In March, Barkat announced he would not seek a third term in municipal elections scheduled for October 30 and will instead run for Knesset on the Likud party ticket.His replacement as mayor would not be bound by the plans prepared by Barkat’s committee.The United States was the biggest contributor to the agency’s budget in 2017, donating 350 million dollars. The US State Department said recently it would no longer fund UNRWA because it was “irredeemably flawed.”In its announcement of the cuts to UNRWA, the US State Department castigated the agency for what it called “failed practices,” and indicated that it rejected the criteria by which UNRWA defines Palestinian refugees, whereby the UN agency confers refugee status not only on original refugees but on their millions of descendants.UNRWA has provided aid to millions of Palestinians since it was established nearly 70 years ago, just after the 1948 Israel-Arab war, known in Israel as the War of Independence, in 1948.UNRWA recognizes over 5 million Palestinians as refugees, even though there are only several tens of thousands of original Palestinian refugees still alive. Palestinian leaders demand a “right of return” to today’s Israel for all these millions — a demand Israel sees as a bid to destroy Israel as a majority-Jewish state. Because UNRWA, uniquely, confers refugee status on descendants of the original refugees, Israel charges UNRWA with perpetuating that demand for a “return” of millions. Under the UN’s global criteria, it is estimated that there would be only some half a million recognized Palestinian refugees.Stuart Winer contributed to this report.
U.S. warships pass through Taiwan Strait amid China tensions-[Reuters]-YAHOONEWS-By Yimou Lee, Idrees Ali and Phil Stewart-October 24, 2018
TAIPEI/WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The United States sent two warships through the Taiwan Strait on Monday in the second such operation this year, as the U.S. military increases the frequency of transits through the strategic waterway despite opposition from China.The voyage risks further heightening tensions with China but will likely be viewed in self-ruled Taiwan as a sign of support from President Donald Trump's government amid growing friction between Taipei and Beijing."The ships' transit through the Taiwan Strait demonstrates the U.S. commitment to a free and open Indo-Pacific," Commander Nate Christensen, deputy spokesman for U.S. Pacific Fleet, said in a statement."The U.S. Navy will continue to fly, sail and operate anywhere international law allows," he added.Taiwan's defense ministry said it closely monitored the operation and was able to "maintain the security of the seas and the airspace" as it occurred.Beijing, which considers Taiwan a breakaway province of "one China", had already expressed "serious concern" to the United States, foreign ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying told a regular briefing on Tuesday."The Taiwan issue concerns China's sovereignty and territory, and is the most important, most sensitive issue in China-U.S. relations," she said.China urged the United States to handle the Taiwan issue cautiously and appropriately to promote peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait, she added.Speaking to reporters on Tuesday, Trump said he was unconcerned about any negative Chinese reaction."I'm not worried about anything; I don't worry about things," he said in answer to a question.Reuters was first to report U.S. consideration of the sensitive operation on Saturday.The U.S. Navy conducted a similar mission in the strait's international waters in July, which had been the first such voyage in about a year. The latest operation shows the U.S. Navy is increasing the pace of strait passages.Washington has no formal ties with Taiwan, but is bound by law to help it defend itself and is the island's main source of arms. The Pentagon says Washington has sold Taiwan more than $15 billion in weaponry since 2010.-STATUS QUO?-China has been ramping up pressure to assert its sovereignty over the island. It raised concerns over U.S. policy toward Taiwan in talks last week with U.S. Defense Secretary Jim Mattis in Singapore.As the United States prepared for a fresh passage through the strait, it told China's military that its overall policy toward Taiwan was unchanged.Mattis delivered that message to China's Defense Minister Wei Fenghe personally on Thursday, on the sidelines of an Asian security forum."Minister Wei raised Taiwan and concerns about our policy. The Secretary reassured Minister Wei that we haven't changed our Taiwan policy, our one China policy," Randall Schriver, a U.S. assistant secretary of defense who helps guide Pentagon policy in Asia, told reporters traveling with Mattis."So it was, I think, a familiar exchange."Taiwan is only one of a growing number of flashpoints in the U.S.-China relationship, which also include a bitter trade war, U.S. sanctions and China's increasingly muscular military posture in the South China Sea.Taiwan's relations with China have deteriorated since the island's President Tsai Ing-wen, of the independence-leaning Democratic Progressive Party, swept to power in 2016.Beijing, which has never renounced the use of force to bring Taiwan under its control, responded to the July passage with a warning to the United States to avoid jeopardizing "peace and stability" in the strategic waterway.It has also viewed U.S. overtures toward Taiwan with alarm, including its unveiling a new de facto embassy in Taiwan and passage of the Taiwan Travel Act, which encourages U.S. officials to visit the island.Military experts say the balance of power between Taiwan and China has shifted decisively in China's favor in recent years, and China could easily overwhelm the island unless U.S. forces came quickly to Taiwan's aid.China has also alarmed Taiwan by ramping up military exercises this year, including flying bombers and other military aircraft around the island and sending its aircraft carrier through the Taiwan Strait.(Reporting by Yimou Lee in Taipei and Lee Chyen Yee in Singapore; Additional reporting by Ben Blanchard in Beijing and David Brunnstrom and Matt Spetalnick in Washington; Writing by Phil Stewart in Washington; Editing by Toby Chopra, Bill Berkrot, Nick Macfie and Dan Grebler)

Category 3 Hurricane Willa about to make landfall in Mexico-[Associated Press]-MARCO UGARTE-YAHOONEWS-October 23, 2018
MAZATLAN, Mexico (AP) — Hurricane Willa swept onto Mexico's Pacific mainland with 120 mph (195 kph) winds Tuesday evening, threatening a major resort area along with fishing villages and farms after roaring over an offshore penal colony.The U.S. National Hurricane Center said in an evening bulletin that the eye of the dangerous Category 3 storm was about to make landfall, and little variation in strength was expected beforehand.It warned people not to venture outside during "the relative calm of the eye, since hazardous winds will suddenly increase" as it passes.The storm's core was hitting a stretch of coast about 50 miles (80 kilometers) south of Mazatlan, a resort city that is home to high-rise hotels and about 500,000 people, including many U.S. and Canadian expatriates.Alberto Hernandez, a hotel worker in Teacapan, close to where the storm was making landfall, expressed confidence that the building would hold up. He and his son, who also works at the hotel, were staying on the job, though the rest of his family had left the area."We've had rain all day. There is nobody in the streets. Everything is closed," Hernandez said. "But not everyone wanted to leave, even though authorities made it clear that he who stays does so at his own peril."Torrential rains began in the afternoon, and emergency officials said they evacuated more than 4,250 people in coastal towns and set up 58 shelters ahead of the dangerous storm.The storm also battered the Islas Marias, a group of Mexican islands about 60 miles (100 kilometers) off the mainland that include a nature preserve and a federal prison. Federal authorities declined to comment on precautions that were taken at the prison, citing security concerns.As Willa closed in, the beach in Mazatlan almost disappeared, with waves slamming against the coastal boulevard under looming black clouds. A few surfers took advantage of the high waves even as workers boarded up windows on hotels, shops and homes. Schools were closed and the streets nearly empty.Some families went to a Mazatlan convention center, which opened its doors as a shelter. They spread out blankets along the walls and waited for the storm."The house we're living in is not well built," said Sergio Ernesto Meri Franco, who rents a studio apartment.The federal government issued a decree of "extraordinary emergency" for 19 municipalities in Nayarit and Sinaloa states.Bob Swanson, who is from Saskatchewan, Canada, and spends two to six months of the year in his house in the Cerritos neighborhood near the shore in Mazatlan, said he filled his washing machine with water, filled his home fuel tank and gassed up his car in case he needs to head into the mountains for safety."I'm kind of waiting with bated breath," he said over the phone, adding that he was sitting on his porch and smoking a cigarette.Hurricane-force winds extended 35 miles (55 kilometers) from Willa's center, and tropical storm-force winds were felt up to 115 miles (185 kilometers) out.Forecasters said the hurricane could bring 6 to 12 inches (15 to 30 centimeters) of rain — with up to 18 inches (45 centimeters) in some places — to parts of Jalisco, Nayarit and Sinaloa states, with flash flooding and landslides possible in mountainous areas.Farther to the south, the remnants of Tropical Storm Vicente continued to bring heavy rain that caused deadly flooding and mudslides. Federal disaster agency chief Luis Felipe Puente said 11 people died as a result of Vicente. Local officials earlier put the figure at 12.___Associated Press writer Isabella Cota in Mexico City contributed to this report.

UN rights committee slams French burqa ban as a violation of religious rights-France rejects criticism from panel chaired by Israeli prof., says full-face veils are ‘incompatible with the principle of fraternity’ and democratic values-By Duncan Crawford-TOI-24 October 2018
GENEVA, Switzerland (AFP) — The UN Human Rights Committee on Tuesday criticized France’s so-called burqa ban, saying the law “violated” the rights of two women who were fined for wearing full-face veils in public.The committee, headed by Israel’s Yuval Shany, called for the women to be compensated and for a review of the 2010 law that forbids people from publicly wearing clothing that conceals their face.“The French law disproportionately harmed the petitioners’ right to manifest their religious beliefs,” the committee said in a statement.It added it was not convinced by France’s claim that the ban was necessary for security and social reasons.The two French women were convicted in 2012 for wearing the niqab, a veil with a slit for the eyes.“The ban, rather than protecting fully veiled women, could have the opposite effect of confining them to their homes, impeding their access to public services and marginalizing them,” the committee said.Responding to the criticism, the French foreign ministry said covering one’s face was “incompatible with the principle of fraternity and the basic values of a democratic and open society.”The ministry noted that the European Court of Human Rights had found the ban did not violate niqab wearers’ religious freedom, and said it would argue its position in a report to the UN committee on the law.-‘Too sweeping’-The UN committee, which is made up of independent experts, ensures countries stick to their human rights commitments but does not have enforcement powers.It said the French ban was “too sweeping” but that governments could still make people show their faces in specific circumstances.The decision reignites a debate that has raged in France for years over Muslim headwear and other religious clothing.The debate has regularly pitted supporters of France’s secular constitution against those who argue for religious freedoms.The 2010 law had strong public support when brought in under former president Nicolas Sarkozy, but many said it targeted a tiny minority of Muslim women in France who wear full-face veils.Condemned by critics for pandering to far-right voters but backed by many women’s rights activists, the law made France the first European country to ban garments that cover the face.An estimated five million Muslims live in France and women who ignore the ban can be fined up to 150 euros ($170).“The vast majority of cases where people have been stopped for checks and have been condemned to fines… have been women wearing the niqab,” committee member Ilze Brands-Kehris told AFP.“In the context of fewer than 2,000 women wearing the full-face veil in France… [the law has] a vast disproportionate effect on those women.”Other EU countries, including Denmark, Austria, and Belgium, have also implemented similar full-face veil bans.-‘Oppression of women’-The committee’s stance contrasts with a 2014 European Court of Human Rights ruling which upheld the French ban.The court found that France was justified in introducing the ban in the interests of social cohesion as it was “not expressly based on the religious connotation of the clothing.”In August, the committee also criticized France over the 2008 sacking of an employee worker who refused to remove her veil at work, arguing it interfered with her right to express her religion.The so-called Baby Loup case, named after the nursery, had already faced multiple legal battles in the French courts.Debate about the effectiveness of the “burqa ban” also made headlines this month after it was revealed that French gangster Redoine Faid, who broke out of jail in July using a helicopter and was recaptured three months later, had at times worn a burqa as a disguise.Police say Faid was caught after officers saw someone wearing a burqa but walking like a man.
Second migrant caravan in Guatemala heads toward Mexico-[Reuters]-By Delphine Schrank and Sofia Menchu-YAHOONEWS-October 24, 2018
TAPACHULA, Mexico/GUATEMALA CITY (Reuters) - A group of over a thousand Central Americans in Guatemala headed toward the Mexican border on Tuesday, as a larger caravan of migrants that has angered U.S. President Donald Trump paused in southern Mexico on its planned journey toward the U.S. border.Trump has vowed to begin cutting millions of dollars in aid to Central America and called the caravan in Mexico a national emergency as he seeks to boost his Republican Party's chances in the Nov. 6 congressional elections.The caravan, mostly Honduran migrants fleeing violence and poverty at home, is currently in the town of Huixtla in Chiapas state, around 31 miles (50 km) north of the Guatemalan border and a distant 1,100 miles (1,800 km) from the United States.Mexico's government said in a statement on Tuesday that it had received 1,699 requests for refugee status, including children. The government estimates there are around 4,500 people in the group.Hundreds of migrants rested in Huixtla on Tuesday. Religious groups and companies donated clothes, and local authorities provided vaccines, food and drink."When we heard the caravan was coming (we joined) ... people in Guatemala are also suffering from poverty. So this is an opportunity to improve my family's life," said Elsa Romero, a Guatemalan mother of four in Huixtla.Migrant Alexander Fernandez said the column planned to move again early on Wednesday.In neighboring Guatemala, a separate group of least 1,000 migrants, also mostly Hondurans, headed out slowly on foot from the eastern town of Chiquimula, a Reuters witness said. Some local media put the number in the column above 2,000."We know this won't end in a few days, and will be a long progress of migration," said Mauro Verzeletti, director of the Casa del Migrante, a migrant shelter in Guatemala City.He said that the shelter had attended to more than 11,000 migrants in the past week.Other caravans are expected to set out from Central America in coming days, encouraged by reports that it is a safer way for migrants to undertake the perilous journey north.Trump and fellow Republicans have sought to make the caravan and immigration issues in the mid-term election, which will determine whether their party keeps control of the U.S. Senate and U.S. House of Representatives.-MIDDLE EAST RUMOR-Trump and some conservative activists in Washington have asserted in recent days that "criminals and unknown Middle Easterners" were mixed in with the caravan in Mexico, but have produced no evidence.Those claims have not been corroborated, a U.S. counter-terrorism official told Reuters on Tuesday.The official, who asked not to be identified, said U.S. authorities were looking for any signs that militants had attempted to infiltrate the group but had found nothing so far.Meanwhile, the U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations, Nikki Haley, posted on Twitter on Tuesday that there was a "need to look at political motives behind the caravan.""Honduran politicians allied with Venezuelan & Cuban socialist dictators are encouraging the caravan to undermine US-friendly gov't of (President Juan Orlando) Hernandez," said Haley, who visited Honduras and Guatemala this year.Vice President Mike Pence said in comments to reporters in Washington that Hernandez had told him that the caravan "was organized by leftist organizations and financed by Venezuela."Neither Haley nor Pence provided evidence.Honduran authorities say that at least two men have died so far on roads during the advance of the migrant columns. One of the men fell off a truck in Mexico, and the other died trying to get onto a truck in Guatemala, authorities said.Mexico, which has refused Trump's demands that it pay for a border wall between the countries, tries to walk a fine line between showing solidarity with the Central American migrants and responding to Washington's demands to control its borders.Mexico hopes to disperse the convoy long before it can reach the border, telling migrants to register with authorities in order to submit applications for asylum in Mexico.That process can last weeks, and migrants are supposed to stay where they register while applications are processed. If they violate those rules, they face deportation.(Reporting by Delphine Schrank and Sofia Menchu; Additional reporting by Orfa Mejia in Tegucigalpa, Luis Echeverria in Chiquimula, Jeff Mason and Mark Hosenball in Washington and Michelle Nichols in New York; Writing by Dave Graham and Daina Beth Solomon; editing by Grant McCool and Rosalba O'Brien)
Arrests of migrant families at U.S.-Mexico border increase: data-[Reuters]-By Yeganeh Torbati-YAHOONEWS-October 24, 2018
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. agents arrested nearly 17,000 members of family units attempting to cross the U.S. border with Mexico in September, a 31 percent increase over the previous month, according to official statistics released on Tuesday.In a news briefing with reporters on Tuesday, Trump administration officials pointed to the increase in migrant families as evidence of a "border crisis" because those groups are more difficult for immigration enforcement officials to detain and deport because of protections granted by U.S. law to migrant children.President Donald Trump's administration has expressed alarm at the change in the makeup of migrants attempting to cross into the United States from mostly single adults to children and families traveling together.About 40 percent of those apprehended in fiscal 2017 and 2018 were unaccompanied children or families with children, compared with 10 percent in 2012, according to the Migration Policy Institute, a non-partisan think tank.According to numbers released on Tuesday, U.S. border officials arrested nearly 397,000 people in total at the southern border in the 2018 fiscal year that ended Sept. 30, a significant increase over the 304,000 apprehended in 2017 but largely in line with arrest trends of migrants at the U.S. southern border over the past decade.Border arrests dropped in the months after Trump took office in January 2017 but have rebounded over the past year. Experts believe that Trump's anti-immigrant rhetoric dissuaded potential migrants from crossing in the first months of his presidency.Trump has vowed to begin cutting millions of dollars in aid to Central America over a caravan of thousands of mostly Honduran migrants fleeing violence and poverty at home.He has called the caravan, which is currently in southern Mexico, a national emergency as he seeks to boost his Republican Party's chances of maintaining control of Congress in the Nov. 6 elections.Earlier this year, Trump's administration tried to deter families from traveling to the border by instituting a "zero tolerance" policy, separating thousands of children as their parents were prosecuted.About 2,500 children and parents were separated before Trump abandoned the policy in June after a public outcry. A federal judge ordered the families reunited, a process that is still incomplete.'NOT SUSTAINABLE'-In Texas' Rio Grande Valley (RGV), where more migrants are arrested crossing illegally than in any other section of the 2,000-mile-long (3,200-km) border with Mexico, apprehensions continued to rise in October, said the Border Patrol sector's Chief Patrol Agent Manuel Padilla.RGV made over 12,700 arrests in the first three weeks of October, marking a 112 percent increase over the same period of 2017, Padilla said in a phone interview.Sixty-four percent of those detentions were of family members or unaccompanied children from countries other than Mexico, up from a rate of 51 percent in all of fiscal year 2018, Padilla said. Over 5,400 family units were detained in the first half of October, up 300 percent from the same period of 2017."Right now we're at maximum capacity when it comes to detention, and so is ICE (U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement). Our detention capacity is just breaking at the seams," said Padilla, predicting border-wide family apprehensions would rise again in October. "This is not sustainable."(Reporting by Yeganeh Torbati in Washington; Additional reporting by Andrew Hay in New Mexico; Editing by Peter Cooney)

20 And Isaac was forty years old (A BIBLE GENERATION NUMBER=1967 + 40=2007+) when he took Rebekah to wife, the daughter of Bethuel the Syrian of Padanaram, the sister to Laban the Syrian.
21 And Isaac intreated the LORD for his wife, because she was barren: and the LORD was intreated of him, and Rebekah his wife conceived.
22 And the children (2 NATIONS IN HER-ISRAEL-ARABS) struggled together within her; and she said, If it be so, why am I thus? And she went to enquire of the LORD.
23 And the LORD said unto her, Two nations are in thy womb, and two manner of people shall be separated from thy bowels;(ISRAEL AND THE ARABS) and the one people shall be stronger than the other people;(ISRAEL STRONGER THAN ARABS) and the elder shall serve the younger.(LITERALLY ISRAEL THE YOUNGER RULES (ISSAC)(JACOB-LATER NAME CHANGED TO ISRAEL) OVER THE OLDER ARABS (ISHMAEL)(ESAU)
24 And when her days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold, there were twins in her womb.
25 And the first came out red, all over like an hairy garment; and they called his name Esau.(THE OLDER AN ARAB)
26 And after that came his brother out, and his hand took hold on Esau's heel; and his name was called Jacob:(THE YOUNGER-ISRAELI) and Isaac was threescore (60) years old when she bare them.(1967 + 60=2027)(COULD BE THE LAST GENERATION WHEN JERUSALEM IS DIVIDED AMOUNG THE 2 TWINS)(THE 2 TWINS WANT JERUSALEM-THE DIVISION OF JERUSALEM TODAY)(AND WHOS IN CONTROL OF JERUSALEM TODAY-THE YOUNGER ISSAC-JACOB-ISRAEL)(AND WHO WANTS JERUSALEM DIVIDED-THE OLDER,ESAU-ISHMAEL (THE ARABS)
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.
ISAIAH 28:14-19 (THIS IS THE 7 YR TREATY COVENANT OF DANIEL 9:27)
14 Wherefore hear the word of the LORD, ye scornful men, that rule this people which is in Jerusalem.
15 Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves:
16 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste.
17 Judgment also will I lay to the line, and righteousness to the plummet: and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding place.
18 And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it.
19 From the time that it goeth forth it shall take you: for morning by morning shall it pass over, by day and by night: and it shall be a vexation only to understand the report.
Palestinian Authority PM calls for Chinese role in peace process-China’s VP Wang Qishan travels to West Bank before meeting with Rivlin, praises Israel’s ‘tremendous human capital’-By TOI staff-24 October 2018
China’s vice president visited the West Bank city of Ramallah Tuesday to meet with Palestinian Authority Prime Minister Rami Hamdallah, who called for greater Chinese involvement in the Israeli-Palestinian peace process.According to the PA’s official WAFA news agency, Hamdallah told Wang Qishan that Israel and the United States have greatly undermined peace talks and the two-state solution, pointing to settlement construction in the West Bank and moves by the Trump administration such as the recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital.Noting China is a permanent member of the United Nations Security Council, Hamdallah told Qishan that Beijing should take an active role in the peace process and back PA President Mahmoud Abbas’ call for an international conference on the issue. He also said China should pressure Israel over alleged violations of international law, according to WAFA.Though a member of the Security Council, China has historically had a minor role in peace talks, which have been largely led by the US. It is also not a member of the Middle East Quartet, which includes countries and international organizations involved in mediating the Israeli–Palestinian peace process.While in the West Bank, Qishan also visited the Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem, where Christians believe Jesus was born.Qishan later met with President Reuven Rivlin at his official residence in Jerusalem.“The relations between the two countries are based on a long shared history, as you mentioned, and also on partnership in innovation,” Qishan told Rivlin, according to the president’s office.“Israel does not have large natural resources, but the miracle of development rests on the tremendous human capital of this nation. Human beings are the most precious asset.”Rivlin for his part boasted Israel-China ties are “excellent — based on mutual respect, a shared past and a promising future.”Qishan is the highest ranking Chinese official to visit Israel since then-president Jiang Zemin’s trip in 2000.Wang arrived in Israel Monday for a four-day visit focusing on high-level talks on economic cooperation.Shortly after arriving on a special Air China flight, Wang, the country’s eighth-highest-ranking official, headed to the Old City of Jerusalem, where he visited the Western Wall and the Church of the Holy Sepulchre.The Old City is in East Jerusalem, which Beijing does not recognize as Israeli territory.Nonetheless, Wang was accompanied during there by two senior officials from the Foreign Ministry: Chief of protocol Reuven Meron and deputy director-general for Asia and the Pacific Gilad Cohen.He later was hosted for dinner by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who called Qishan’s visit a “sign of our growing friendship.”Later this week, Wang is to co-host the 4th meeting of the China-Israel Joint Committee on Innovation Cooperation together with Netanyahu.Beijing and Jerusalem are both seeking to advance issues of mutual interest during this week’s meetings, such as a possible free trade agreement or a 10-year multiple entry visa agreement for tourists and businesspeople, according to the ministry.Ahead of his visit, Israeli officials were quoted as warning of getting too close to China as the Asian giant could pose a possible security risk.Some in Jerusalem have expressed worries about Chinese companies participating in massive infrastructure projects and about the sale of Israeli technology to Beijing.Officials have reportedly warned that some infrastructure projects could introduce the possibility of China spying on some of Israel’s most sensitive assets.Adam Rasgon and Raphael Ahren contributed to this report.
Macron to unveil peace plan soon if Trump doesn’t, top diplomat said to tell MKs-France will fill the vacuum if the US doesn’t launch its initiative next month, Foreign Ministry’s Alon Ushpiz reported to brief Knesset panel-By TOI staff-24 October 2018
If US President Donald Trump does not present his Israeli-Palestinian peace plan next month, France’s President Emmanuel Macron will issue a proposal of his own, a senior Israeli diplomat reportedly told Knesset members at a closed-door briefing.Alon Ushpiz, the Foreign Ministry’s political director, testified to the Knesset’s powerful Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee on Monday, in a closed session, that France is waiting out November 6’s US midterm elections, but that if Trump does not present his long-awaited plan in the first few weeks after that vote, Macron will publicize his own formula, TV news reports said.The reports, on Israel’s Channel 10 and Hadashot TV, quoted MKs who were at the session. The Foreign Ministry in Jerusalem said the reports contained inaccuracies.Channel 10 said Macron had instructed his foreign ministry in late August to explore new ideas for resolving the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and that the French president had now signaled to Trump that if the US does not move ahead, Paris will. The Prime Minister’s Office and the Foreign Ministry were spending considerable time discussing the possible Macron plan, the TV reports said.A spokesperson for the Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee said the reports “do not properly reflect” Ushpiz’s remarks to lawmakers.“Naturally, due to the [closed] forum, we cannot elaborate beyond this,” the spokesperson said.The reports came a day after Channel 10 quoted Trump last month telling Macron that he was prepared to pressure Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to accept the administration’s long-gestating peace initiative.Trump and Netanyahu are reportedly set to travel to Paris around November 11 for World War I centenary ceremonies hosted by Macron.Also Monday, senior White House adviser Jared Kushner expressed impatience with the Israeli-Palestinian deadlock, telling CNN: “The status quo between Israel and the Palestinians is not acceptable. The situation is only getting worse. At some point, the leaders will have to take a bold step and make compromise. We hope to find leaderships that are ready to do so.”According to Tuesday evening’s TV reports, Ushpiz also told MKs on Monday that Israel expects the Democrats to make gains in next month’s midterm elections, and that this would have impact and implications for Israel. He reportedly called the midterms “critical” for Israel, and said Israel anticipates the Democrats will make gains in Congress and “things won’t be the same.”Trump said at a meeting with Netanyahu last month that he expected to publish his plan within four months. Speaking to The Times of Israel last month, Trump’s special envoy for international negotiations, Jason Greenblatt, said the plan “will include a resolution to all of the core issues, including the refugee issue,” and will “be heavily focused on Israeli security needs.”Greenblatt added: “But we also want to be fair to the Palestinians. We have tried hard to find a good balance. Each side will find things in this plan that they don’t like. There are no perfect solutions.”Kushner said Monday that a “reasonable” Palestinian leadership will be willing to negotiate with Israel based on the Trump plan.The Palestinian Authority has preemptively rejected the plan and has boycotted the Trump administration since it recognized Jerusalem as Israel’s capital last year.Ushpiz also reportedly told MKs that Israeli officials “are not managing” to persuade visiting diplomats and administration officials to accept Israeli positions when it comes to Gaza, because the Israeli narrative pales by comparison to the simple reality of the humanitarian situation in the Hamas-run Strip.He also reportedly said that the Foreign Ministry has not been formally tasked by Netanyahu — who is also Israel’s foreign minister — with trying to convince countries to move their embassies to Jerusalem.“It’s a political matter,” Ushpiz reportedly said. “It hasn’t been defined as a mission for the Foreign Ministry.” Relocating an embassy sometimes requires Israel “to intervene in the internal affairs of countries — and that does not work to our benefit,” Ushpiz reportedly added.The US moved its embassy to Jerusalem in May. Guatemala and Paraguay followed suit, but Paraguay returned its embassy to Tel Aviv last month after a change in government.According to Channel 10 on Monday, Trump told Macron on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly in September he was willing to “be tough” on Israel in peace negotiations. Such a move would mark a significant shift in the US approach to peace talks so far, which has seen a number of concessions to Israel and punitive measures against Ramallah, stoking Palestinian anger and a boycott of efforts to jump-start peace talks.According to the report, which cited four Western diplomats with knowledge of the matter, Trump told Macron: “I’ve given a lot to Netanyahu. I moved the embassy to Jerusalem… We give Israel $5 billion a year. I can be tough with Netanyahu on the peace plan, just like I’ve been tough on the Palestinians.”When Macron told the US leader that he was under the impression that Netanyahu preferred the status quo over making progress on a peace deal, Trump reportedly replied: “You know, Emmanuel, I’m very close to reaching that same conclusion.”Responding to the report, a White House official told The Times of Israel that “the president believes that the prime minister is committed to pursuing a comprehensive and lasting peace between Israel and the Palestinians.” Trump, the official added, “has faith in the prime minister’s efforts.”The reported comments to Macron took place three days before Trump, during a meeting with Netanyahu at the UN, said he favors the two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, seemingly signaling a reversal in the administration’s previous refusal to endorse the formula. He later backtracked.
