Government said set to approve long-stalled Red Sea-Dead Sea canal project-Minister responsible for talks on joint initiative with Jordan says approving plan will ‘strengthen the peace’ between Jerusalem and Amman-By TOI staff-JAN 1,19
After years of delay, the government is set to approve a highly touted joint project with Jordan for a canal linking the Red Sea and Dead Sea, according to an Israeli TV report.An agreement on the canal was signed in 2013, with the aim of helping to alleviate Jordan’s severe water shortage while also helping replenish the fast-shrinking Dead Sea.The project has long been delayed by bureaucratic hurdles, financing difficulties, and environmentalist objections, as well as diplomatic tensions between the countries.According to a report by Israel’s Hadashot TV news Friday, the decision to bring the project to a cabinet vote came after secret talks in New York between Regional Cooperation Minister Tzachi Hanegbi and his Jordanian counterpart, as well as a visit by National Security Adviser Meir Ben Shabbat to Jordan.The report said the cabinet would vote to approve $40 million in funding toward the project over the next 25 years when Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu returns next week from his visit to Brazil.“The Red Sea-Dead Sea canal will enable Jordan to deal with its water troubles, allow us to work toward saving the Dead Sea from drying up and most importantly strengthen the peace between us and an Arab state that maintains a peace agreement with Israel,” Hanegbi, a member of the Likud party, said in a statement to the network.Jordan and Israel signed a peace treaty in 1994, making it the second and only other Arab country besides Egypt to establish diplomatic ties with the Jewish state.The repeated delays to the project have elicited anger from Jordan, which has reportedly demanded answers on whether Israel is still committed to its implementation.Last month, the Haaretz daily reported Israel was seeking to advance work on the project as a means of improving its relations with Jordan.The report said Israeli officials believe the repeated delays in implementing the project are a central factor in ongoing tensions between Jerusalem and its neighbor, which suffers from severe water shortages that could be alleviated by the canal.According to the plan, a desalination plant in Jordan will provide much-needed drinking water to the region while its brine (very salty water left over from the desalination process) will be pumped north to the Dead Sea to replenish the fast-shrinking lake, while also producing green energy through use of water turbines.Officials were said to be looking at the possibility of redefining the project as one with security implications, in order to help bypass red tape, open up new funding possibilities and make it easier to win in court against expected challenges by environmental groups.In a sign of strained ties, Jordan announced in October that it will not renew an agreement to lease two parcels of land on the border to Israel for agriculture use, which it has done for the past 24 years as part of an annex of the historic peace treaty between the nations signed in 1994.Jordan has said the decision would not affect the decades-old peace agreement, seeking to assuage fears in Jerusalem that ties could be downgraded.Officials in Israel have expressed fears that the move signaled Jordan’s desire to effectively reduce diplomatic ties, and many saw it as a reflection of intense domestic pressure from a public that still largely views Israel as an enemy.With the announcement, the sides now have a year to negotiate the end of the lease. While Netanyahu had indicated he would lobby for Amman to reverse the decision, Jordan’s Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi said that the only item on the table was the mechanism for canceling the agreement.Tensions between Israel and Jordan have mounted in the past year over such issues as the contested status of Jerusalem and its holy sites, stalled peace talks with the Palestinians, and last year’s shooting of two Jordanian citizens by an Israeli embassy guard in Amman, which ignited a diplomatic crisis.AP contributed to this report.
Foreign Ministry names 6 new ambassadors-Envoys to Mexico, Greece, Kenya, Uruguay, Lithuania, and the Hague must still be approved by cabinet-By TOI staff-JAN 1,19
The Foreign Ministry’s appointments committee on Sunday named six new ambassadors — to Mexico, Greece, Kenya, Uruguay, Lithuania, and The Hague.The appointments must still be approved by the cabinet.Diplomat Yosef Amrani was named Israel’s Ambassador to Athens, while the candidate set to represent Israel in The Hague was Naor Gilon.Oded Yosef was nominated for the position of ambassador to Kenya. He will replace Noah Gal Gendler, ambassador of Israel to Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Malawi and Seychelles.In Uruguay, Yoad Magen was tapped to succeed Ambassador Galit Ronen. Yosef Levy was nominated to replace Amir Maimon in Vilna, while Zvi Tal was set to succeed Jonathan Peled in Mexico.Earlier this month, several Israeli ambassadors accused Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of failing to fund their offices and causing what they said was an unprecedented crisis, prompting a promise from the premier to reverse the steps he has taken in recent years.During an annual gathering of Israeli envoys at the Foreign Ministry in Jerusalem, Netanyahu, who is also the acting foreign minister, spoke about the need to change voting patterns in international forums.But during a closed part of the meeting, when they could ask Netanyahu questions, the ambassadors railed against budget cuts in the Foreign Ministry, and the reassigning of some of its responsibilities to other ministries, Hebrew-language media reported.“The Foreign Ministry’s condition has never been this bad,” said Israel’s Ambassador to the Netherlands, Aviv Shir-On. “There is no budget for activities, there are no means. We are constantly busy with challenges but we can’t then find out that we aren’t remunerated.”The Foreign Ministry workers union has been protesting budget cuts that have included salary reductions to envoys and the closure of diplomatic missions, and has been threatening to strike.
US warns travelers to ‘exercise increased caution’ in Israel-State Department advisory cautions American citizens that ‘violence can occur in Jerusalem and the West Bank without warning’-By Marcy Oster-JAN 1,19
JTA — The US State Department called on travelers to “exercise increased caution in Israel due to terrorism.”In an email to citizens registered to its Smart Traveler Enrollment Program, or STEP, the State Department noted that the security level of Israel, the West Bank and Gaza is at Level 2: Exercise Extreme Caution.The security warning states that travelers should not travel to Gaza due to “terrorism, civil unrest, and armed conflict.” It also recommends that travelers reconsider travel to the West Bank due to “terrorism, potentially violent civil unrest, and the potential for armed conflict.”The warning continues: “Terrorist groups and lone-wolf terrorists continue plotting possible attacks in Israel, the West Bank, and Gaza. Terrorists may attack with little or no warning, targeting tourist locations, transportation hubs, markets/shopping malls, and local government facilities. Violence can occur in Jerusalem and the West Bank without warning.”US government personnel can travel freely in Israel, except to areas in close proximity to Gaza, Syria, Lebanon, and Egypt. Their travel is “extremely limited” in the West Bank. They are forbidden to travel to Gaza.The warning also calls on travelers to maintain a high degree of situational awareness; avoid demonstrations and crowds; and learn the location of the nearest bomb shelter.

6 Iranians found on English beach as Channel crossings mount-British home secretary calls uptick in crossings a ‘major incident,’ reaches out to French officials for more coordination-By AP-TOI-JAN 1,19
LONDON — British officials say six Iranian men have been found on a beach in southeastern England as the number of migrants making risky crossings of the English Channel continues to mount.The Home Office said Sunday the men have been given medical checks and turned over to immigration officials for processing.Border Force officials were called Sunday morning after the men were found on a beach in Kent with a rigid-hulled inflatable boat.There has been an increase in recent weeks in the number of migrants traveling from France to England in small boats.Home Secretary Sajid Javid has called the crossings a “major incident” and reached out to French officials for more coordination.The crossing is risky because of rough seas and a high volume of commercial and ferry traffic.
Analysis-The PM is again warning settlers of a ‘real threat.’ This time it may not work-Like in 2015, Netanyahu insists that only Likud can safeguard their homes — even if it won’t build more — but a new generation of farther-right West Bank leaders isn’t so sure-By Jacob Magid-JAN 1,19
In an interview with the pro-settler NRG news site just a day before the 2015 parliamentary elections, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu issued a warning to the Israeli right.Asked whether he would renew Jewish construction in East Jerusalem and the West Bank if reelected, the premier dodged. “The question is not about additional building. There is a real threat now that a leftist government will join the international community and do what they want,” he said, arguing that the last time a left-wing party led the coalition, roughly two decades earlier, former prime minister Ehud Barak was “willing to give up everything.”Netanyahu waited until a day before the elections to release such flares directed at settler voters. They were said to have been part of a last-minute fear-mongering campaign that polls subsequently indicated helped pull as many as four seats from the national-religious Jewish Home party to the prime minister’s Likud, boosting his faction to a solid 30-24 seat victory over the center-left Zionist Union.Last Wednesday, just two days after the 2019 elections were announced, Netanyahu showed that he was not planning to waste any time, and opened his meeting with settler leaders with a nearly identical warning to the one he gave four years before.“In the upcoming election campaign, we will see an attempt by the left to oust us from power,” the prime minister told West Bank settlement council chairmen at his Jerusalem office.“It’s a battle over our homes,” he continued. “The fate of the state and the settlement enterprise are not to be taken for granted… Because later on, under a leftist government, everything will be reversed immediately.”The settler leaders appeared to respond positively to his message.Jordan Valley Regional Council chairman David Elhayani subsequently heaped praise on the prime minister. “In the upcoming elections, we must tell our residents the truth: the settlement project is flourishing, and that is only because of you.”Elhayani confirmed the remarks made in the closed-door meeting to The Times of Israel, and said he wasn’t the only one who grabbed the opportunity to laud the premier for his work on the settlers’ behalf.“Every one of us had his requests of the prime minister, but the atmosphere was very cordial,” recalled the Jordan Valley council head.The overwhelmingly warm reception for Netanyahu may have something to do with the chairs that remained empty in the room. Samaria Regional Council chairman Yossi Dagan, Binyamin Regional Council chairman Yisrael Gantz and Kiryat Arba Local Council chairman Eliyahu Libman announced hours before the meeting that they would not be attending — due to the prime minister’s refusal to accept any of their demands for security funding, settlement expansion and military reinforcements following a spate of deadly Palestinian violence.In a letter to the 20 other Israeli council chairmen in the West Bank explaining the move, the trio of hawkish mavericks asserted that Netanyahu was “giving them the runaround” and that the meeting’s “entire purpose [was] to create an idyllic picture of partnership.”Netanyahu is banking that the three boycotting council chairmen represent a fringe group of settlers that will eventually return to his limited embrace when they realize that at the end of the day, he is the only thing preventing the rise of a left-wing, settlement-evacuating prime minister. But the new generation of more combative settler leaders threatens to test the support that the premier may have been able to take for granted for the past four years.-No longer an opposition of one-For starters, the flank of anti-establishment settler leaders has expanded beyond just Yossi Dagan. He is now joined by Libman and Gantz, both of whom were elected in October; the latter represents the largest Israeli regional council in the West Bank with over 65,000 residents (followed by Dagan’s Samaria Regional Council, where over 40,000 settlers live).And the list may not end with just those three names. A number of other settler leaders are said to be increasingly attracted to Dagan’s approach. They include Gush Etzion Regional Council chairman Shlomo Ne’eman, who represents 23 settlements and outposts in the central West Bank, and Har Hebron Regional Council chairman Yochai Damari, who represents 19 communities in the southern West Bank.Asked whether he saw himself joining Dagan, Gantz and Libman at some point in more aggressive protests against the prime minister’s policy, Damari told The Times of Israel: “Depending on the circumstances.”“There were definitely those at the meeting who feel no different from Dagan and Gantz,” Karnei Shomron Council chairman Yigal Lahav said.A former West Bank council chairman who spoke on the condition of anonymity argued that the implications of the anti-establishment camp’s rise on the future of the settlement enterprise could be significant.Last Wednesday’s meeting between Netanyahu and settler leaders was organized by Ze’ev “Zambish” Hever, the CEO of the Amana settlement construction organization and the figure who most prominently represents the movement’s old guard.“For a while now, Zambish has been the one who Yesha folks believed was needed to get the ear of Netanyahu,” said the former council chair. Yesha is a settlement umbrella organization that relies heavily on the Amana CEO.But he predicted that Netanyahu will agree in the coming weeks to sit down with the boycotting settler leaders and even bow to some of their demands.“This will totally neutralize Yesha’s power, and we will see council chairs asking themselves why they need to work within the confines of Yesha when they can peel off and still get a meeting with the prime minister,” the former settler leader argued.In addition to their style, the ex-council chairman said that the new generation of settler leaders also has a different philosophy from Zambish and Yesha on how to best advance the movement.“Zambish has been about bringing as many Israelis as possible to Judea and Samaria,” he explained, using the biblical term for the West Bank. “To do this, you work under the table by building first and only subsequently working to receive approval from the state.”The Zambish camp’s argument, as explained by the former settler leader, has long been that if the settlers attempted to work “above the table” to expand the Israeli presence beyond the Green Line, rights groups would notice and appeal to the High Court of Justice to walk back such moves.The ex-settlement leader said that Dagan’s camp is not concerned by the “threat of the High Court” and specifically wants to expand settlement with the government’s approval.The Amichai precedent-This was best demonstrated in the establishment of the Amichai settlement for evacuees of the Amona outpost. Ahead of the February 2017 razing of the illegal hilltop community built on private Palestinian land, Zambish approached the Amona residents and said that he had managed to receive tacit approval from the government for them to resettle on a hilltop near Shiloh.Led by another Yossi Dagan ally, Avichai Boaron, the Amona locals rebuffed the offer and said they were not interested in using Zambish as a mediator between them and the government and that they were going to make their demands directly to Netanyahu.“They not only wanted their community in a (slightly) different location but they also demanded an official seal of approval from the government with proper services for their new community,” explained the former settler leader.In the lead-up to the October elections for Binyamin Regional Council chair, Gantz released a controversial statement that made waves in settler circles for the way it attacked his opponent Shiloh Adler, who had resigned from his position as Yesha director-general in order to run.Gantz’s campaign referred to Adler as the candidate of the “rusty, old establishment institutions, Yesha and Amana.”A Binyamin Regional Council official revealed to The Times of Israel that Boaron had been behind the crafting of the antagonistic statement.“At the end of the day, this new generation’s rise will either render Yesha completely irrelevant, or force them to significantly alter the way they interact with the prime minister and his government,” the former settler leader concluded.The Yesha Council leadership appears aware of the threat posed by Dagan and Gantz, et al.The umbrella body released a statement slamming the boycotting council chairman, but notably chose to only call out Dagan by name. It seemed to be an attempt to maintain a window for future partnership with Gantz and Libman, even if its relationship with Dagan is beyond repair.But Lahav, of Karnei Shomron, said the decision to focus on the anti-establishment flank was a mistake.“Those that boycotted do not represent the essence of the group, so why did we need to take time out to address them?” he asked. “Did they disrupt the meeting or prevent it from taking place?”Lahav argued that the Yesha leadership needs to learn to work with and respect the tactics of the new generation of settler leaders, so they can “return to representing all residents of Judea and Samaria, instead of just fifty percent of them.”However, the Karnei Shomron Local Council chair appeared to have been more conciliatory toward the mavericks than most in the meeting, where more combative voices such as Elhayani and Efrat Local Council chairman Oded Revivi were more prevalent.Revivi has released a number of statements over the past week lambasting Dagan and the boycotting council chairmen for their attempts to “trade bodies and blood spilled for building permits.”As for what the settler leaders managed to garner from Netanyahu in the Wednesday meeting, Lahav said the prime minister agreed to establish a small committee of council chairmen who will meet once a month with the prime minister’s staff to ensure that funds are being properly allocated to the settlements.The achievement from the settler leaders was far less substantial and concrete that what Dagan, Gantz and Libman were asking for and likely represented a considerable victory for the anti-establishment flank.“So they got another working committee established, so what?” mocked an official in the Samaria Regional Council. “The PMO has established a number of such committees in recent years and they haven’t amounted to anything tangible on the ground.”You’ve got the power. Now what? Even with newfound influence, it appears the new generation of settler leaders is not looking to abandon Netanyahu entirely.Both Dagan and Gantz have been careful over the past week to stress that they “love and support the prime minister.”“I did not really boycott him. He invited us as a group and I decided not to come,” Gantz told The Times of Israel. “Had he invited me personally, of course I would’ve showed up immediately.”The Binyamin Regional Council chairman explained that the settler leaders held a preparatory meeting with Netanyahu’s staff where the council chairmen presented their demands and the PMO indicated what it would be willing to offer.“Once I saw that there would not be any practical results, I realized there was no point in going,” Gantz said. “With the security of my residents on the line, I don’t have the luxury of playing games.”Gantz said that he and Dagan were “currently considering future steps” to take if Netanyahu refuses to budge on their demands. “We will not sit quietly.”But pressed whether such steps could include revoking his support for the prime minister’s Likud party, of which he is an active member, Gantz said that such a move would be “unlikely.”“But there are other ways for me to influence policy beyond my vote in the elections,” he said.“They can push forward candidates in the Likud primaries that will advance our agenda,” explained David Ha’ivri, a member of the Samaria Regional Council’s assembly and longtime Dagan adviser.In 2012, Dagan helped establish My Likud, a pro-settlement campaign team within the right-wing party that has been responsible for recruiting thousands of members.Ha’ivri estimated that the bloc represents roughly a sixth of the Likud primary voters.While he acknowledged that Jewish Home party is seen as more synonymous with the settlement movement, Damari asserted that “the true influence is within the ruling party.” The Har Hebron Regional Council head summarized the feeling among the majority of West Bank council chairmen, who are also registered Likud members.Lahav admitted that there is a small, but possibly growing minority of settler leaders who publicly identify as Likud members but vote for Jewish Home on election day. But “their influence is limited,” he said.“Within the family, sometimes there are fights, but that doesn’t mean you get a divorce,” Damari opined.That overwhelming opinion has created a reality in which both the majority who chose to attend the meeting with Netanyahu as well as the minority which opted to boycott came out of the sit-down with the same goal: to strengthen Likud.But one former Jewish Home MK and current right-wing activist asserted that the settler leaders’ allegiance to Netanyahu’s party has prevented them from effecting real change on the movement’s behalf.“Netanyahu hasn’t really done anything substantial for the settlers, yet they continue to remain loyal to him,” said the former MK, citing the prime minister’s refusal to annex any part of the West Bank or take steps to legalize outposts throughout the West Bank.“If they were to leave Likud and take their Knesset seats elsewhere, Netanyahu would suddenly realize how dependent he is on them, rather than the other way around,” she added.The ex-lawmaker suggested that the establishment of The New Right, announced Saturday night by former Jewish Home ministers Naftali Bennett and Ayelet Shaked, could create an opportunity for a union of the remaining Jewish Home MKs with farther-right factions such as Otzma Yehudit that enjoy support in the more frustrated settler circles.“The council chairmen may have less of an excuse to remain within Likud if such a party were to exist,” she said. “Though even if they remain loyal to Netanyahu, their residents may no longer be willing to do the same.”In the end, fear works best-Despite the ever-changing political landscape, the settler leaders acknowledged that Netanyahu’s fear-mongering will continue to convince many Israelis beyond the Green Line.“There are those that after the second, third and fourth time, it makes less of an impression on them; but at the end of the day there’s a reason why it’s worked so well for him in the past,” Damari said.The former Jewish Home MK argued that as long as the election race appears close, the fear strategy will be Netanyahu’s “most effective tool because the damage a left-wing government could pose to settlement is tremendous.”Apparently understanding this better than anyone else, the premier launched his campaign telling settlers that despite over 50 years of Israeli presence throughout the West Bank, their homes are still on the line. Come election day, the new generation of settlement leaders will play a key role in determining just how effective that strategy will prove.
Trump blames Democrats for migrant child deaths amid wall impasse-President accused of ‘reaching new lows’ after tweets trying to deflect blame for deaths of two Guatemalan kids in US custody-By AFP-TOI-JAN 1,19
WASHINGTON — US President Donald Trump on Saturday blamed opposition Democrats for the death of two immigrant children in US custody, comments set to heighten tensions as the second week of a government shutdown began over his demands for a wall on the US-Mexico border.“Any deaths of children or others at the Border are strictly the fault of the Democrats and their pathetic immigration policies that allow people to make the long trek thinking they can enter our country illegally. They can’t. If we had a Wall, they wouldn’t even try!,” Trump said on Twitter.His comments came after the separate deaths of two Guatemalan children, aged seven and eight, who crossed the border illegally with relatives who were taken into custody by US Border Patrol.The tweet hardened Trump’s tone after an earlier message on Twitter that said the next move in the eight-day budget standoff over border wall funding belonged to the Democrats.“I am in the White House waiting for the Democrats to come on over and make a deal on Border Security,” Trump tweeted.Any deaths of children or others at the Border are strictly the fault of the Democrats and their pathetic immigration policies that allow people to make the long trek thinking they can enter our country illegally. They can’t. If we had a Wall, they wouldn’t even try! The two…..— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 29, 2018-But members of Congress, most of them home for the holidays, kept low profiles, and there were no evident signs of any imminent breakthrough.One Democratic representative, Dwight Evans of Pennsylvania, said in a tweet posted by his staff that Trump was “reaching new lows with these ridiculous tweets. His administration is the cause of pain and suffering that is taking place at the border. Nothing that he says will alter this truth.”Others called the Trump tweets “disturbing” and pointed out that US immigration policies have been in place for years without children dying in government custody.Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen was in Yuma, Arizona, on a trip to witness border operations first hand after saying last week that the US will take “extraordinary” protective measures to deal with a surge of immigrant children in custody.Eight-year-old Felipe Gomez, who collapsed after running a fever, died in US custody after traveling with his father Agustin Gomez from an indigenous community in Guatemala.He died on the same day that Jakelin Caal, a Guatemalan girl who died in US custody under similar circumstances earlier this month, was buried back in her home village.In the last two months, US Border Patrol agents have apprehended 139,817 people on the southwest border, compared with 74,946 during the same period a year earlier, Nielsen said.More than 68,500 were “family units” while almost 14,000 others were unaccompanied children, she said, and the system has been pushed to the “breaking point.”When the shutdown began on December 22, affecting a quarter of the federal government, Trump canceled his plans to spend the year-end holidays in Florida and vowed to remain at the White House — though he made a quick, unannounced trip to visit US troops in Iraq.But as he tries to build pressure on Democrats to help fund the border wall he sees as an urgent priority — threatening even to close the border if no deal is reached — Democrats appear adamant in their refusal to pay for a project they view as a waste of money.Some conservative Republicans, meanwhile, appear equally determined to press for the wall.Trump has demanded $5 billion for wall construction — though the White House reportedly has shown flexibility on that number — while Democrats have offered to spend no more than $1.3 billion for security measures not including a wall.-A vow to reopen government-Nancy Pelosi, who is expected to be House speaker in the new Congress, has vowed to “swiftly” reopen the government once her Democrats take control of that chamber from the Republicans on Thursday.She said Democrats “will govern responsibly in stark contrast to this chaotic White House.”-Trump had previously blamed Democrats for policies he said had forced his administration to separate some children from their parents at the border, a claim widely seen as specious.The effects of the shutdown have been slow to appear — many of the 800,000 government employees sent home or working without pay would have been off for the holidays anyway — but once the New Year arrives, pressure will grow.The popular Smithsonian museums and National Zoo in Washington, for example, said they found money to stay open through New Year’s Day but will close on January 2 if the standoff continues.While most of the US military is unaffected, about 42,000 Coast Guard members are working without pay. That branch falls under the Department of Homeland Security, not the Pentagon.This is the third government shutdown of the year, following shorter closures in January and February.Shutdowns have rarely been popular with the public.A recent NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist poll found that Americans — by 57 to 36 percent — favored Trump seeking compromise rather than insisting on his wall demand.

THE FIRST JUDGEMENT OF THE EARTH STARTED WITH WATER-IT ONLY MAKES SENSE THE LAST GENERATION WILL BE HAVING FLOODING
GENESIS 7:6-12
6 And Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters was upon the earth.
7 And Noah went in, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons’ wives with him, into the ark, because of the waters of the flood.
8 Of clean beasts, and of beasts that are not clean, and of fowls, and of every thing that creepeth upon the earth,
9 There went in two and two unto Noah into the ark, the male and the female, as God had commanded Noah.
10 And it came to pass after seven days, that the waters of the flood were upon the earth.
11 In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.
12 And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights.

Hardline cleric Larijani named to head powerful Iran body-[Reuters]-YAHOONEWS-JAN 1,19
DUBAI (Reuters) - Ayatollah Sadeq Amoli Larijani - the chief of Iran's hardline judiciary who has been blacklisted by Washington - was named on Sunday as the new head of the powerful Expediency Council, state television reported.The council is intended to resolve disputes between parliament and a watchdog body, the Guardian Council.Larijani, 57, was appointed by Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who also made him a member of the Guardian Council, which vets laws and elections for compliance with Iran’s Islamic constitution, state television reported.Larijani, seen as one of Khamenei's close allies, will replace former Expediency Council head Ayatollah Mahmoud Hashemi Shahroudi, who died this week at the age of 70.Washington imposed sanctions on Larijani and 13 other individuals and entities in January over alleged human rights abuses in Iran and support for Iranian weapons programs.Iran rejects Western criticism of its human rights record as politically motivated and based on a lack of understanding of its Islamic laws.(Reporting by Dubai newsroom; Editing by Andrew Heavens)
U.S. medic quarantined in Nebraska for possible Ebola exposure-[Reuters]-YAHOONEWS-JAN 1,19
(Reuters) - A U.S. healthcare worker who may have been exposed to the Ebola virus while treating patients in the Democratic Republic of Congo arrived in the United States on Saturday and was put in quarantine in Nebraska.The medic, who is not exhibiting symptoms of Ebola, will remain under observation for up to two weeks at the University of Nebraska Medical Center (UNMC) in Omaha, Nebraska Medicine said in a statement.The individual's name was not released for privacy reasons.Symptoms such as fever and abdominal pain may appear up to three weeks after contact with the deadly virus, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.Should symptoms develop, the healthcare worker would be moved to the Nebraska Biocontainment Unit, one of only a few in the United States for treating infectious diseases.The Ebola outbreak in Democratic Republic of Congo is the second worst ever and has killed 356 of the 585 people infected since it began six months ago, according to the World Health Organization.Nebraska Medicine, a network of hospitals, clinics and healthcare colleges, together with academic partner UNMC, are among world leaders in the treatment of Ebola, which spreads through contact with bodily fluids and causes hemorrhagic fever with severe vomiting, diarrhea and bleeding.Nebraska Medicine cared for three patients with the virus in 2014 and monitored several others for exposure during a 2013-16 outbreak in West Africa that was the worst on record, with more than 28,000 cases confirmed.(Reporting by Andrew Hay in New Mexico, editing by G Crosse)

Government said set to approve long-stalled Red Sea-Dead Sea canal project-Minister responsible for talks on joint initiative with Jordan says approving plan will ‘strengthen the peace’ between Jerusalem and Amman-By TOI staff-JAN 1,19
After years of delay, the government is set to approve a highly touted joint project with Jordan for a canal linking the Red Sea and Dead Sea, according to an Israeli TV report.An agreement on the canal was signed in 2013, with the aim of helping to alleviate Jordan’s severe water shortage while also helping replenish the fast-shrinking Dead Sea.The project has long been delayed by bureaucratic hurdles, financing difficulties, and environmentalist objections, as well as diplomatic tensions between the countries.According to a report by Israel’s Hadashot TV news Friday, the decision to bring the project to a cabinet vote came after secret talks in New York between Regional Cooperation Minister Tzachi Hanegbi and his Jordanian counterpart, as well as a visit by National Security Adviser Meir Ben Shabbat to Jordan.The report said the cabinet would vote to approve $40 million in funding toward the project over the next 25 years when Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu returns next week from his visit to Brazil.“The Red Sea-Dead Sea canal will enable Jordan to deal with its water troubles, allow us to work toward saving the Dead Sea from drying up and most importantly strengthen the peace between us and an Arab state that maintains a peace agreement with Israel,” Hanegbi, a member of the Likud party, said in a statement to the network.Jordan and Israel signed a peace treaty in 1994, making it the second and only other Arab country besides Egypt to establish diplomatic ties with the Jewish state.The repeated delays to the project have elicited anger from Jordan, which has reportedly demanded answers on whether Israel is still committed to its implementation.Last month, the Haaretz daily reported Israel was seeking to advance work on the project as a means of improving its relations with Jordan.The report said Israeli officials believe the repeated delays in implementing the project are a central factor in ongoing tensions between Jerusalem and its neighbor, which suffers from severe water shortages that could be alleviated by the canal.According to the plan, a desalination plant in Jordan will provide much-needed drinking water to the region while its brine (very salty water left over from the desalination process) will be pumped north to the Dead Sea to replenish the fast-shrinking lake, while also producing green energy through use of water turbines.Officials were said to be looking at the possibility of redefining the project as one with security implications, in order to help bypass red tape, open up new funding possibilities and make it easier to win in court against expected challenges by environmental groups.In a sign of strained ties, Jordan announced in October that it will not renew an agreement to lease two parcels of land on the border to Israel for agriculture use, which it has done for the past 24 years as part of an annex of the historic peace treaty between the nations signed in 1994.Jordan has said the decision would not affect the decades-old peace agreement, seeking to assuage fears in Jerusalem that ties could be downgraded.Officials in Israel have expressed fears that the move signaled Jordan’s desire to effectively reduce diplomatic ties, and many saw it as a reflection of intense domestic pressure from a public that still largely views Israel as an enemy.With the announcement, the sides now have a year to negotiate the end of the lease. While Netanyahu had indicated he would lobby for Amman to reverse the decision, Jordan’s Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi said that the only item on the table was the mechanism for canceling the agreement.Tensions between Israel and Jordan have mounted in the past year over such issues as the contested status of Jerusalem and its holy sites, stalled peace talks with the Palestinians, and last year’s shooting of two Jordanian citizens by an Israeli embassy guard in Amman, which ignited a diplomatic crisis.AP contributed to this report.
Foreign Ministry names 6 new ambassadors-Envoys to Mexico, Greece, Kenya, Uruguay, Lithuania, and the Hague must still be approved by cabinet-By TOI staff-JAN 1,19
The Foreign Ministry’s appointments committee on Sunday named six new ambassadors — to Mexico, Greece, Kenya, Uruguay, Lithuania, and The Hague.The appointments must still be approved by the cabinet.Diplomat Yosef Amrani was named Israel’s Ambassador to Athens, while the candidate set to represent Israel in The Hague was Naor Gilon.Oded Yosef was nominated for the position of ambassador to Kenya. He will replace Noah Gal Gendler, ambassador of Israel to Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Malawi and Seychelles.In Uruguay, Yoad Magen was tapped to succeed Ambassador Galit Ronen. Yosef Levy was nominated to replace Amir Maimon in Vilna, while Zvi Tal was set to succeed Jonathan Peled in Mexico.Earlier this month, several Israeli ambassadors accused Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of failing to fund their offices and causing what they said was an unprecedented crisis, prompting a promise from the premier to reverse the steps he has taken in recent years.During an annual gathering of Israeli envoys at the Foreign Ministry in Jerusalem, Netanyahu, who is also the acting foreign minister, spoke about the need to change voting patterns in international forums.But during a closed part of the meeting, when they could ask Netanyahu questions, the ambassadors railed against budget cuts in the Foreign Ministry, and the reassigning of some of its responsibilities to other ministries, Hebrew-language media reported.“The Foreign Ministry’s condition has never been this bad,” said Israel’s Ambassador to the Netherlands, Aviv Shir-On. “There is no budget for activities, there are no means. We are constantly busy with challenges but we can’t then find out that we aren’t remunerated.”The Foreign Ministry workers union has been protesting budget cuts that have included salary reductions to envoys and the closure of diplomatic missions, and has been threatening to strike.
US warns travelers to ‘exercise increased caution’ in Israel-State Department advisory cautions American citizens that ‘violence can occur in Jerusalem and the West Bank without warning’-By Marcy Oster-JAN 1,19
JTA — The US State Department called on travelers to “exercise increased caution in Israel due to terrorism.”In an email to citizens registered to its Smart Traveler Enrollment Program, or STEP, the State Department noted that the security level of Israel, the West Bank and Gaza is at Level 2: Exercise Extreme Caution.The security warning states that travelers should not travel to Gaza due to “terrorism, civil unrest, and armed conflict.” It also recommends that travelers reconsider travel to the West Bank due to “terrorism, potentially violent civil unrest, and the potential for armed conflict.”The warning continues: “Terrorist groups and lone-wolf terrorists continue plotting possible attacks in Israel, the West Bank, and Gaza. Terrorists may attack with little or no warning, targeting tourist locations, transportation hubs, markets/shopping malls, and local government facilities. Violence can occur in Jerusalem and the West Bank without warning.”US government personnel can travel freely in Israel, except to areas in close proximity to Gaza, Syria, Lebanon, and Egypt. Their travel is “extremely limited” in the West Bank. They are forbidden to travel to Gaza.The warning also calls on travelers to maintain a high degree of situational awareness; avoid demonstrations and crowds; and learn the location of the nearest bomb shelter.

6 Iranians found on English beach as Channel crossings mount-British home secretary calls uptick in crossings a ‘major incident,’ reaches out to French officials for more coordination-By AP-TOI-JAN 1,19
LONDON — British officials say six Iranian men have been found on a beach in southeastern England as the number of migrants making risky crossings of the English Channel continues to mount.The Home Office said Sunday the men have been given medical checks and turned over to immigration officials for processing.Border Force officials were called Sunday morning after the men were found on a beach in Kent with a rigid-hulled inflatable boat.There has been an increase in recent weeks in the number of migrants traveling from France to England in small boats.Home Secretary Sajid Javid has called the crossings a “major incident” and reached out to French officials for more coordination.The crossing is risky because of rough seas and a high volume of commercial and ferry traffic.
Analysis-The PM is again warning settlers of a ‘real threat.’ This time it may not work-Like in 2015, Netanyahu insists that only Likud can safeguard their homes — even if it won’t build more — but a new generation of farther-right West Bank leaders isn’t so sure-By Jacob Magid-JAN 1,19
In an interview with the pro-settler NRG news site just a day before the 2015 parliamentary elections, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu issued a warning to the Israeli right.Asked whether he would renew Jewish construction in East Jerusalem and the West Bank if reelected, the premier dodged. “The question is not about additional building. There is a real threat now that a leftist government will join the international community and do what they want,” he said, arguing that the last time a left-wing party led the coalition, roughly two decades earlier, former prime minister Ehud Barak was “willing to give up everything.”Netanyahu waited until a day before the elections to release such flares directed at settler voters. They were said to have been part of a last-minute fear-mongering campaign that polls subsequently indicated helped pull as many as four seats from the national-religious Jewish Home party to the prime minister’s Likud, boosting his faction to a solid 30-24 seat victory over the center-left Zionist Union.Last Wednesday, just two days after the 2019 elections were announced, Netanyahu showed that he was not planning to waste any time, and opened his meeting with settler leaders with a nearly identical warning to the one he gave four years before.“In the upcoming election campaign, we will see an attempt by the left to oust us from power,” the prime minister told West Bank settlement council chairmen at his Jerusalem office.“It’s a battle over our homes,” he continued. “The fate of the state and the settlement enterprise are not to be taken for granted… Because later on, under a leftist government, everything will be reversed immediately.”The settler leaders appeared to respond positively to his message.Jordan Valley Regional Council chairman David Elhayani subsequently heaped praise on the prime minister. “In the upcoming elections, we must tell our residents the truth: the settlement project is flourishing, and that is only because of you.”Elhayani confirmed the remarks made in the closed-door meeting to The Times of Israel, and said he wasn’t the only one who grabbed the opportunity to laud the premier for his work on the settlers’ behalf.“Every one of us had his requests of the prime minister, but the atmosphere was very cordial,” recalled the Jordan Valley council head.The overwhelmingly warm reception for Netanyahu may have something to do with the chairs that remained empty in the room. Samaria Regional Council chairman Yossi Dagan, Binyamin Regional Council chairman Yisrael Gantz and Kiryat Arba Local Council chairman Eliyahu Libman announced hours before the meeting that they would not be attending — due to the prime minister’s refusal to accept any of their demands for security funding, settlement expansion and military reinforcements following a spate of deadly Palestinian violence.In a letter to the 20 other Israeli council chairmen in the West Bank explaining the move, the trio of hawkish mavericks asserted that Netanyahu was “giving them the runaround” and that the meeting’s “entire purpose [was] to create an idyllic picture of partnership.”Netanyahu is banking that the three boycotting council chairmen represent a fringe group of settlers that will eventually return to his limited embrace when they realize that at the end of the day, he is the only thing preventing the rise of a left-wing, settlement-evacuating prime minister. But the new generation of more combative settler leaders threatens to test the support that the premier may have been able to take for granted for the past four years.-No longer an opposition of one-For starters, the flank of anti-establishment settler leaders has expanded beyond just Yossi Dagan. He is now joined by Libman and Gantz, both of whom were elected in October; the latter represents the largest Israeli regional council in the West Bank with over 65,000 residents (followed by Dagan’s Samaria Regional Council, where over 40,000 settlers live).And the list may not end with just those three names. A number of other settler leaders are said to be increasingly attracted to Dagan’s approach. They include Gush Etzion Regional Council chairman Shlomo Ne’eman, who represents 23 settlements and outposts in the central West Bank, and Har Hebron Regional Council chairman Yochai Damari, who represents 19 communities in the southern West Bank.Asked whether he saw himself joining Dagan, Gantz and Libman at some point in more aggressive protests against the prime minister’s policy, Damari told The Times of Israel: “Depending on the circumstances.”“There were definitely those at the meeting who feel no different from Dagan and Gantz,” Karnei Shomron Council chairman Yigal Lahav said.A former West Bank council chairman who spoke on the condition of anonymity argued that the implications of the anti-establishment camp’s rise on the future of the settlement enterprise could be significant.Last Wednesday’s meeting between Netanyahu and settler leaders was organized by Ze’ev “Zambish” Hever, the CEO of the Amana settlement construction organization and the figure who most prominently represents the movement’s old guard.“For a while now, Zambish has been the one who Yesha folks believed was needed to get the ear of Netanyahu,” said the former council chair. Yesha is a settlement umbrella organization that relies heavily on the Amana CEO.But he predicted that Netanyahu will agree in the coming weeks to sit down with the boycotting settler leaders and even bow to some of their demands.“This will totally neutralize Yesha’s power, and we will see council chairs asking themselves why they need to work within the confines of Yesha when they can peel off and still get a meeting with the prime minister,” the former settler leader argued.In addition to their style, the ex-council chairman said that the new generation of settler leaders also has a different philosophy from Zambish and Yesha on how to best advance the movement.“Zambish has been about bringing as many Israelis as possible to Judea and Samaria,” he explained, using the biblical term for the West Bank. “To do this, you work under the table by building first and only subsequently working to receive approval from the state.”The Zambish camp’s argument, as explained by the former settler leader, has long been that if the settlers attempted to work “above the table” to expand the Israeli presence beyond the Green Line, rights groups would notice and appeal to the High Court of Justice to walk back such moves.The ex-settlement leader said that Dagan’s camp is not concerned by the “threat of the High Court” and specifically wants to expand settlement with the government’s approval.The Amichai precedent-This was best demonstrated in the establishment of the Amichai settlement for evacuees of the Amona outpost. Ahead of the February 2017 razing of the illegal hilltop community built on private Palestinian land, Zambish approached the Amona residents and said that he had managed to receive tacit approval from the government for them to resettle on a hilltop near Shiloh.Led by another Yossi Dagan ally, Avichai Boaron, the Amona locals rebuffed the offer and said they were not interested in using Zambish as a mediator between them and the government and that they were going to make their demands directly to Netanyahu.“They not only wanted their community in a (slightly) different location but they also demanded an official seal of approval from the government with proper services for their new community,” explained the former settler leader.In the lead-up to the October elections for Binyamin Regional Council chair, Gantz released a controversial statement that made waves in settler circles for the way it attacked his opponent Shiloh Adler, who had resigned from his position as Yesha director-general in order to run.Gantz’s campaign referred to Adler as the candidate of the “rusty, old establishment institutions, Yesha and Amana.”A Binyamin Regional Council official revealed to The Times of Israel that Boaron had been behind the crafting of the antagonistic statement.“At the end of the day, this new generation’s rise will either render Yesha completely irrelevant, or force them to significantly alter the way they interact with the prime minister and his government,” the former settler leader concluded.The Yesha Council leadership appears aware of the threat posed by Dagan and Gantz, et al.The umbrella body released a statement slamming the boycotting council chairman, but notably chose to only call out Dagan by name. It seemed to be an attempt to maintain a window for future partnership with Gantz and Libman, even if its relationship with Dagan is beyond repair.But Lahav, of Karnei Shomron, said the decision to focus on the anti-establishment flank was a mistake.“Those that boycotted do not represent the essence of the group, so why did we need to take time out to address them?” he asked. “Did they disrupt the meeting or prevent it from taking place?”Lahav argued that the Yesha leadership needs to learn to work with and respect the tactics of the new generation of settler leaders, so they can “return to representing all residents of Judea and Samaria, instead of just fifty percent of them.”However, the Karnei Shomron Local Council chair appeared to have been more conciliatory toward the mavericks than most in the meeting, where more combative voices such as Elhayani and Efrat Local Council chairman Oded Revivi were more prevalent.Revivi has released a number of statements over the past week lambasting Dagan and the boycotting council chairmen for their attempts to “trade bodies and blood spilled for building permits.”As for what the settler leaders managed to garner from Netanyahu in the Wednesday meeting, Lahav said the prime minister agreed to establish a small committee of council chairmen who will meet once a month with the prime minister’s staff to ensure that funds are being properly allocated to the settlements.The achievement from the settler leaders was far less substantial and concrete that what Dagan, Gantz and Libman were asking for and likely represented a considerable victory for the anti-establishment flank.“So they got another working committee established, so what?” mocked an official in the Samaria Regional Council. “The PMO has established a number of such committees in recent years and they haven’t amounted to anything tangible on the ground.”You’ve got the power. Now what? Even with newfound influence, it appears the new generation of settler leaders is not looking to abandon Netanyahu entirely.Both Dagan and Gantz have been careful over the past week to stress that they “love and support the prime minister.”“I did not really boycott him. He invited us as a group and I decided not to come,” Gantz told The Times of Israel. “Had he invited me personally, of course I would’ve showed up immediately.”The Binyamin Regional Council chairman explained that the settler leaders held a preparatory meeting with Netanyahu’s staff where the council chairmen presented their demands and the PMO indicated what it would be willing to offer.“Once I saw that there would not be any practical results, I realized there was no point in going,” Gantz said. “With the security of my residents on the line, I don’t have the luxury of playing games.”Gantz said that he and Dagan were “currently considering future steps” to take if Netanyahu refuses to budge on their demands. “We will not sit quietly.”But pressed whether such steps could include revoking his support for the prime minister’s Likud party, of which he is an active member, Gantz said that such a move would be “unlikely.”“But there are other ways for me to influence policy beyond my vote in the elections,” he said.“They can push forward candidates in the Likud primaries that will advance our agenda,” explained David Ha’ivri, a member of the Samaria Regional Council’s assembly and longtime Dagan adviser.In 2012, Dagan helped establish My Likud, a pro-settlement campaign team within the right-wing party that has been responsible for recruiting thousands of members.Ha’ivri estimated that the bloc represents roughly a sixth of the Likud primary voters.While he acknowledged that Jewish Home party is seen as more synonymous with the settlement movement, Damari asserted that “the true influence is within the ruling party.” The Har Hebron Regional Council head summarized the feeling among the majority of West Bank council chairmen, who are also registered Likud members.Lahav admitted that there is a small, but possibly growing minority of settler leaders who publicly identify as Likud members but vote for Jewish Home on election day. But “their influence is limited,” he said.“Within the family, sometimes there are fights, but that doesn’t mean you get a divorce,” Damari opined.That overwhelming opinion has created a reality in which both the majority who chose to attend the meeting with Netanyahu as well as the minority which opted to boycott came out of the sit-down with the same goal: to strengthen Likud.But one former Jewish Home MK and current right-wing activist asserted that the settler leaders’ allegiance to Netanyahu’s party has prevented them from effecting real change on the movement’s behalf.“Netanyahu hasn’t really done anything substantial for the settlers, yet they continue to remain loyal to him,” said the former MK, citing the prime minister’s refusal to annex any part of the West Bank or take steps to legalize outposts throughout the West Bank.“If they were to leave Likud and take their Knesset seats elsewhere, Netanyahu would suddenly realize how dependent he is on them, rather than the other way around,” she added.The ex-lawmaker suggested that the establishment of The New Right, announced Saturday night by former Jewish Home ministers Naftali Bennett and Ayelet Shaked, could create an opportunity for a union of the remaining Jewish Home MKs with farther-right factions such as Otzma Yehudit that enjoy support in the more frustrated settler circles.“The council chairmen may have less of an excuse to remain within Likud if such a party were to exist,” she said. “Though even if they remain loyal to Netanyahu, their residents may no longer be willing to do the same.”In the end, fear works best-Despite the ever-changing political landscape, the settler leaders acknowledged that Netanyahu’s fear-mongering will continue to convince many Israelis beyond the Green Line.“There are those that after the second, third and fourth time, it makes less of an impression on them; but at the end of the day there’s a reason why it’s worked so well for him in the past,” Damari said.The former Jewish Home MK argued that as long as the election race appears close, the fear strategy will be Netanyahu’s “most effective tool because the damage a left-wing government could pose to settlement is tremendous.”Apparently understanding this better than anyone else, the premier launched his campaign telling settlers that despite over 50 years of Israeli presence throughout the West Bank, their homes are still on the line. Come election day, the new generation of settlement leaders will play a key role in determining just how effective that strategy will prove.
Trump blames Democrats for migrant child deaths amid wall impasse-President accused of ‘reaching new lows’ after tweets trying to deflect blame for deaths of two Guatemalan kids in US custody-By AFP-TOI-JAN 1,19
WASHINGTON — US President Donald Trump on Saturday blamed opposition Democrats for the death of two immigrant children in US custody, comments set to heighten tensions as the second week of a government shutdown began over his demands for a wall on the US-Mexico border.“Any deaths of children or others at the Border are strictly the fault of the Democrats and their pathetic immigration policies that allow people to make the long trek thinking they can enter our country illegally. They can’t. If we had a Wall, they wouldn’t even try!,” Trump said on Twitter.His comments came after the separate deaths of two Guatemalan children, aged seven and eight, who crossed the border illegally with relatives who were taken into custody by US Border Patrol.The tweet hardened Trump’s tone after an earlier message on Twitter that said the next move in the eight-day budget standoff over border wall funding belonged to the Democrats.“I am in the White House waiting for the Democrats to come on over and make a deal on Border Security,” Trump tweeted.Any deaths of children or others at the Border are strictly the fault of the Democrats and their pathetic immigration policies that allow people to make the long trek thinking they can enter our country illegally. They can’t. If we had a Wall, they wouldn’t even try! The two…..— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 29, 2018-But members of Congress, most of them home for the holidays, kept low profiles, and there were no evident signs of any imminent breakthrough.One Democratic representative, Dwight Evans of Pennsylvania, said in a tweet posted by his staff that Trump was “reaching new lows with these ridiculous tweets. His administration is the cause of pain and suffering that is taking place at the border. Nothing that he says will alter this truth.”Others called the Trump tweets “disturbing” and pointed out that US immigration policies have been in place for years without children dying in government custody.Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen was in Yuma, Arizona, on a trip to witness border operations first hand after saying last week that the US will take “extraordinary” protective measures to deal with a surge of immigrant children in custody.Eight-year-old Felipe Gomez, who collapsed after running a fever, died in US custody after traveling with his father Agustin Gomez from an indigenous community in Guatemala.He died on the same day that Jakelin Caal, a Guatemalan girl who died in US custody under similar circumstances earlier this month, was buried back in her home village.In the last two months, US Border Patrol agents have apprehended 139,817 people on the southwest border, compared with 74,946 during the same period a year earlier, Nielsen said.More than 68,500 were “family units” while almost 14,000 others were unaccompanied children, she said, and the system has been pushed to the “breaking point.”When the shutdown began on December 22, affecting a quarter of the federal government, Trump canceled his plans to spend the year-end holidays in Florida and vowed to remain at the White House — though he made a quick, unannounced trip to visit US troops in Iraq.But as he tries to build pressure on Democrats to help fund the border wall he sees as an urgent priority — threatening even to close the border if no deal is reached — Democrats appear adamant in their refusal to pay for a project they view as a waste of money.Some conservative Republicans, meanwhile, appear equally determined to press for the wall.Trump has demanded $5 billion for wall construction — though the White House reportedly has shown flexibility on that number — while Democrats have offered to spend no more than $1.3 billion for security measures not including a wall.-A vow to reopen government-Nancy Pelosi, who is expected to be House speaker in the new Congress, has vowed to “swiftly” reopen the government once her Democrats take control of that chamber from the Republicans on Thursday.She said Democrats “will govern responsibly in stark contrast to this chaotic White House.”-Trump had previously blamed Democrats for policies he said had forced his administration to separate some children from their parents at the border, a claim widely seen as specious.The effects of the shutdown have been slow to appear — many of the 800,000 government employees sent home or working without pay would have been off for the holidays anyway — but once the New Year arrives, pressure will grow.The popular Smithsonian museums and National Zoo in Washington, for example, said they found money to stay open through New Year’s Day but will close on January 2 if the standoff continues.While most of the US military is unaffected, about 42,000 Coast Guard members are working without pay. That branch falls under the Department of Homeland Security, not the Pentagon.This is the third government shutdown of the year, following shorter closures in January and February.Shutdowns have rarely been popular with the public.A recent NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist poll found that Americans — by 57 to 36 percent — favored Trump seeking compromise rather than insisting on his wall demand.

1 Hear the word of the LORD, ye children of Israel: for the LORD hath a controversy with the inhabitants of the land, because there is no truth, nor mercy, nor knowledge of God in the land.
2 By swearing, and lying, and killing, and stealing, and committing adultery, they break out, and blood toucheth blood.
3 Therefore shall the land mourn, and every one that dwelleth therein shall languish, with the beasts of the field, and with the fowls of heaven; yea, the fishes of the sea also shall be taken away.

22 The LORD shall smite thee with a consumption, and with a fever, and with an inflammation, and with an extreme burning, and with the sword, and with blasting, and with mildew; and they shall pursue thee until thou perish.
23 And thy heaven that is over thy head shall be brass, and the earth that is under thee shall be iron.

THE FIRST JUDGEMENT OF THE EARTH STARTED WITH WATER-IT ONLY MAKES SENSE THE LAST GENERATION WILL BE HAVING FLOODING
GENESIS 7:6-12
6 And Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters was upon the earth.
7 And Noah went in, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons’ wives with him, into the ark, because of the waters of the flood.
8 Of clean beasts, and of beasts that are not clean, and of fowls, and of every thing that creepeth upon the earth,
9 There went in two and two unto Noah into the ark, the male and the female, as God had commanded Noah.
10 And it came to pass after seven days, that the waters of the flood were upon the earth.
11 In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.
12 And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights.
GOD PROMISED BY A RAINBOW-THE EARTH WOULD NEVER BE DESTROYED TOTALLY WITH A FLOOD AGAIN.BUT FLOODIING IS A SIGN OF JUDGEMENT.

U.S. medic quarantined in Nebraska for possible Ebola exposure-[Reuters]-YAHOONEWS-JAN 1,19
(Reuters) - A U.S. healthcare worker who may have been exposed to the Ebola virus while treating patients in the Democratic Republic of Congo arrived in the United States on Saturday and was put in quarantine in Nebraska.The medic, who is not exhibiting symptoms of Ebola, will remain under observation for up to two weeks at the University of Nebraska Medical Center (UNMC) in Omaha, Nebraska Medicine said in a statement.The individual's name was not released for privacy reasons.Symptoms such as fever and abdominal pain may appear up to three weeks after contact with the deadly virus, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.Should symptoms develop, the healthcare worker would be moved to the Nebraska Biocontainment Unit, one of only a few in the United States for treating infectious diseases.The Ebola outbreak in Democratic Republic of Congo is the second worst ever and has killed 356 of the 585 people infected since it began six months ago, according to the World Health Organization.Nebraska Medicine, a network of hospitals, clinics and healthcare colleges, together with academic partner UNMC, are among world leaders in the treatment of Ebola, which spreads through contact with bodily fluids and causes hemorrhagic fever with severe vomiting, diarrhea and bleeding.Nebraska Medicine cared for three patients with the virus in 2014 and monitored several others for exposure during a 2013-16 outbreak in West Africa that was the worst on record, with more than 28,000 cases confirmed.(Reporting by Andrew Hay in New Mexico, editing by G Crosse)
