 HAMAS THREATENS ISRAEL OVER THE TEMPLE MOUNT.

Hamas leader threatens Israel over ‘plans’ for Temple Mount-Haniyeh says ‘sword of Jerusalem’ will protect holy site amid Palestinian concerns incoming police minister Ben Gvir will alter delicate status quo-By Jack Mukand-DEC 14,22-Today, 7:45 am

The political leader of the Hamas terrorist group, Ismail Haniyeh, threatened retaliation on Tuesday to any changes to the status quo at Jerusalem’s Temple Mount.The esplanade is the holiest place for Jews as the site of the Biblical temples, while the al-Aqsa Mosque, which sits atop the mount, is the third-holiest place for Muslims, who believe that the Prophet Muhammad ascended to heaven from there.“We will absolutely not permit the implementation of Zionist plans at the al-Aqsa Mosque or in Jerusalem more broadly,” Haniyeh said in an address commemorating Hamas’s 35th anniversary.“The sword of Jerusalem has not and will not be sheathed,” he said.Hamas supporters refer to its latest major flareup with Israel in May 2021 as the “Sword of Jerusalem Battle.” The terror group claims that the rockets it fired during that conflict were retaliation for Israeli security forces entering the al-Aqsa Mosque after Palestinians threw stones and other objects at them.Israel claimed sovereignty over all of Jerusalem after its victory in the 1967 Six Day War, but allowed the Islamic Waqf, a Jordanian institution, to retain its administrative authority over the mount. Jews are allowed to visit the site, but not pray there, in a delicate status quo that has been slipping as some Jewish activists push for expanded prayer rights.Haniyeh’s comments come amid speculation that the appointment of far-right Otzma Yehudit party leader Itamar Ben Gvir to the position of national security minister might usher in policy changes that would allow Jews to pray in a more conspicuous manner at the site. Police have for decades enforced the Jewish prayer ban as a public security measure.On Monday, Ben Gvir called for an end to the prayer restrictions, which he said constituted anti-Jewish “apartheid” at the holy site.During coalition-building negotiations, expected incoming prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu of the right-wing Likud party reportedly shot down an Otzma Yehudit proposal to change the status quo on the mount.A poll in May found that 50 percent of Israeli Jews think Jews should be allowed to pray at the site. Three out of four respondents said they supported that view because Jewish prayer demonstrates Israeli sovereignty.Many rabbis, however, interpret Jewish law as prohibiting visits to the Temple Mount because visitors could tread on sacred ground. Israel’s Chief Sephardic rabbi, Yitzhak Yosef, condemned Ben Gvir’s periodic ascents as “blasphemy” in June.Minor changes to the status quo at the holy site or even rumors of such changes have sparked violent protests in the past, including contributing to last year’s war between Israel and Gaza terror groups. In 2017, a decision to place metal detectors and cameras at the compound following a deadly attack there sparked several days of angry protests and condemnation from Israel’s Muslim neighbors.Hamas’s Haniyeh, an Islamist, said on Tuesday that “Hamas has made a compact with our people over the blessed al-Aqsa Mosque and has preserved the depth of the Islamic sense of connection to our Jerusalem and our al-Aqsa.”Haniyeh’s broadcast displayed the message “al-Aqsa in danger” and a Hamas logo prominently featuring the Dome of the Rock, located in the Mosque complex.Vitriol from terrorist organizations like Hamas is often seen as fueling clashes in Jerusalem, like the ones in April that saw 160 Palestinians wounded and Israeli security forces moving on the al-Aqsa complex.

Pope Francis issues dire warning for humanity, sees ‘greater omens, destruction’ in the world-By Isabel Keane-December 13, 2022 3:28pm

Pope Francis painted a grim picture of the future during Mass at the Vatican on Sunday, warning he sees “greater omens of greater destruction and desolation” in the world.The 85-year-old pontiff shared his dark vision for humanity during a Mass ahead of Monday’s holiday celebrating the Feast Day of Our Lady of Guadalupe, the patron of Mexico.Francis said the holiday, which commemorates the appearance of the Virgin Mary to a young man in 1531 in Mexico City, came at a “complicated and difficult time for the inhabitants of the New World.”He related it to present day, noting we are also living through “a difficult time for humanity … a bitter period, full of the roar of war, of growing injustices, famines, poverty, suffering.”Despite how seemingly bad things are, the pope said his vision for the future appears with “greater omens of greater destruction and desolation.”“And although this horizon seems bleak and disconcerting, with omens of even greater destruction and desolation, his divine love and his coming down to us tell us that this too is a propitious time of salvation,” the pope added.Pope Francis warned that he sees “greater omens of greater destruction and desolation” during a mass this week.Pope Francis warned during Mass this week that he sees “greater omens of greater destruction and desolation.”Ahead of the holiday, Francis said the Virgin Mary welcomes people to put aside their “prejudices and fears” and put their trust in the Lord.In recent months, Francis has grown increasingly vocal in his criticisms of Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine, now entering its 10th month. Over the summer, he denounced the “ferocity and cruelty” of Russian forces.“We do not see the whole drama unfolding behind this war, which was perhaps somehow either provoked or not prevented,” the pontiff said during a conversation with editors of Jesuit media. “And I register an interest in testing and selling weapons. It is very sad, but basically this is what is at stake.”The leader of the Roman Catholic Church made his strongest plea to Putin back in October, when he implored him to “stop this spiral of violence and death” and end the war.“How the war is going in Ukraine has become so grave, devastating and threatening that it sparks great worry,” Francis said at the time. “In fact, this terrible, inconceivable wound of humanity, instead of shrinking, continues to bleed even more, threatening to spread.”

Former CNN Producer Pleads Guilty In Pedo Scandal-by Zero Hedge-December 14th 2022, 4:09 am

Former CNN producer John Griffin, who worked ‘shoulder to shoulder’ with Chris Cuomo, pleaded guilty on Monday in federal court to using interstate commerce to entice and coerce a 9-year-old girl to engage in sexual activity as his Vermont ski house.This is a different CNN pedophile than Jake Tapper’s former producer, Rick Saleeby, who resigned after it emerged that he solicited sexually explicit photos of an underage girl.Griffin admitted to meeting the girl’s mother on a website during the summer of 2020, after which he persuaded her to bring the 9-year-old child to his Ludlow, Vermont ski home for illegal sexual activity, AP reports.According to the Daily Mail, Griffin ‘used Google Hangouts and Kik to convince the mothers that a “woman is a woman regardless of her age,” and that “women should be sexually subservient and inferior to men,” according to the indictment. In June of 2020, Griffin advised a mother of 9- and 13-year-old daughters that the mother’s responsibility was to see that her older daughter was “trained properly.”  Griffin later transferred over $3,000 to the mother for plane tickets so the mother and her 9-year-old daughter could fly from Nevada to Boston’s Logan airport.  The mother and child flew to Boston in July of 2020, where Griffin picked them up in his Tesla and drove them to his Ludlow house.  At the house, the daughter was directed to engage in, and did engage in, unlawful sexual activity. Reading this indictment will make you sick to your stomach pic.twitter.com/61FugCnJNg— BUY PILLOW 🇺🇸 (@JackPosobiec) December 11, 2021-Griffin, who originally pleaded not guilty to three counts, was arrested on Dec. 10, 2021, a day after he was indicted by a grand jury. He worked for CNN for around eight years, and was fired following his arrest.Griffin also allegedly attempted to entice two other children over the internet to engage in sexual activity – proposing a “virtual training session” in a video chat in April 2020 which would involve instructing a mother and her 14-year-old daughter to get naked and touch each other at his direction. In June 2020, Griffin proposed to the purported mother of a 16-year-old that she take a “little mother-daughter trip” to his ski house for sexual training involving the minor.Griffin faces 10 years to life in prison when he’s sentenced on March 20, 2023, and must pay full restitution to the victims – an amount which is yet-to-be determined by the court. He also faces a $250,000 fine and other fees, and has agreed to forfeit his Tesla, electronics, and donate half the proceeds from his home in Vermont – and a Mercedes Benz, into the court registry.

Zelensky: If Putin Suddenly Dies, ‘There Would Be No War’Volodymyr Zelensky-Frances Martel13 Dec 2022827

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky predicted in an interview published Monday that, should Russian leader Vladimir Putin suddenly die, the Russian invasion of his country would abruptly end, as the Russian state would collapse and not have resources to continue.Zelensky made the prediction in response to a question from David Letterman, who traveled to Kyiv to interview Zelensky for his Netflix series My Next Guest Needs No Introduction. Letterman explicitly asked how the war effort would continue without Putin, who Zelensky has held personally responsible for the war.Russia invaded Ukraine under Putin in 2014, seizing its Crimean Peninsula and fighting a proxy war using separatists sympathetic to Moscow in the eastern Donbass regions of Luhansk and Donetsk. That war precedes Zelensky’s rise to the presidency by five years; Zelensky took office as the “pro-Russian” candidate in the 2019 presidential election after a lengthy career in comic acting.Here is what the elites said about Zelensky two years ago https://t.co/4ua9llLnaG — Frances Martel (@francesmartel) March 1, 2022-Putin greatly escalated the geographic scale of the war in February, announcing a “special military operation” to oust Zelensky and his allegedly “Nazi” government. Putin claimed that Zelensky, despite winning an election that the opposition did not denounce as unfree or unfair in 2019, was an illegitimate head of state because of the events that ousted former President Viktor Yanukovych in 2014. Yanukovych was succeeded by the man Zelensky defeated in the 2019 election, Petro Poroshenko.Putin also claimed that Ukraine did not exist as a legitimate country, had “no tradition” of sovereignty, and was “completely created by Russia.”The “special military operation” announcement preceded the open presence of Russian troops on Ukrainian soil and the “annexation” of four more regions: Luhansk and Donetsk, and the southern regions of Kherson and Zaporizhzhia.Letterman reportedly interviewed Zelensky for his Netflix program in October, the same month that Zelensky issued a presidential decree branding any talks with Putin himself “impossible” and demanding Russia replace its president before any further negotiations.Letterman asked Zelensky if he thought that the Russian people believed and supported Putin.“Unfortunately, we have to state that quite a large percentage of people believe him [Putin],” the Ukrainian president said, blaming their “cowardice” in the face of war.“They are aware of the reality but they are just afraid,” he lamented.Letterman then asked about the influence Putin as a solitary figure has on the war.“Let’s just say that Putin got a really bad cold and died,” Letterman suggested, “or accidentally fell out a window and died, would this [the invasion] continue?”The reference to windows appeared to be a nod to the many suspicious deaths of political, business, and medical leaders by “falling” out of windows that have occurred in Russia in the past five years.“No. There would be no war,” Zelensky responded. “There wouldn’t be. The authoritarian regime is dangerous as it poses great risks. Because you can’t allow just one person to have total control over everything.”“That’s why when such a person is gone, institutions come to a halt,” he continued. “That’s what happened back in the Soviet Union. Everything collapsed. And that’s why I think if he’s gone, it will be hard for them. They will have to deal with their internal policy rather than foreign issues.”Zelensky appeared to be referring to the fragility of the Russian regime, not necessarily Putin’s ability or skill at controlling it. Zelensky has nonetheless had an acrimonious relationship with Putin since he came into the presidency, walking out of a four-way talk with the Russian leader in 2019 as the only bitterly unsatisfied participant. In December of that year, the leaders of Germany and France chaperoned a meeting between Zelensky and Putin under a formal known then as the “Normandy Four.” French President Emmanuel Macron, then-German Chancellor Angela Merkel, and Putin all said publicly they believed the talks led to some progress, and that open communication between the parties was in itself a positive step.“Look, it’s very difficult to negotiate [with Putin], but today there were moments when we agreed on something, on certain things,” a frustrated Zelensky said after the meeting. “That’s because he dissects every question into details … and then we begin to even consider every word. So yes, this is difficult.”“Many questions were tackled, and my counterparts have said it is a very good result for a first meeting. But I will be honest — it is very little, I wanted to resolve a larger number of problems,” he admitted.Zelensky has since resorted to addressing the Russian people directly, rather than speaking to Putin. In a nationally televised address directed to Russians in February, Zelensky countered accusations of “Nazism,” noting his ancestors had fought the Nazis (Zelensky is Jewish, which he did not directly mention in that speech).“They tell you that we’re Nazis. But how can a people that lost eight million lives to defeat the Nazis support Nazism? How can I be a Nazi?” Zelensky said at the time. “Say it to my grandfather, who fought in World War II as a Soviet infantryman and died a colonel in an independent Ukraine.”“If Russia’s leadership does not want to meet us across the table for the sake of peace, perhaps it will sit at that table with you,” he concluded.Zelensky also stated on several occasions that he was open to some negotiations with the Russian government prior to his decree banning talks with Putin in October.In remarks on Monday to the G7 member states, Zelensky urged the Russian government to withdraw all its troops from Ukraine by Christmas, a request Moscow is unlikely to fill.“This is the time for normal people to think about peace, not aggression. I suggest Russia to at least try to prove that it is capable of abandoning the aggression,” Zelensky said. “It would be right to start the withdrawal of Russian troops from the internationally recognized territory of Ukraine this Christmas. If Russia withdraws its troops from Ukraine, it will ensure a lasting cessation of hostilities.”Follow Frances Martel on Facebook and Twitter.Entertainment.

Israeli AI predicts heart failure in muscle inflammation patients with 80% accuracy-Myositis elevates chances of heart failure, so Rambam Hospital team built a special algorithm that analyzes ECG tests and gives early warning-By Nathan Jeffay-dec 14,22-Today, 4:55 pm 0

Israeli researchers have built an artificial intelligence tool that analyzes ECG tests and predicts heart failure with high accuracy weeks before it happens.The new technology is for sufferers of myositis — muscle inflammation — which elevates the risk of heart failure.The physician who led the research, Dr. Shahar Shelly of Rambam Healthcare Campus, told The Times of Israel that it is the first AI tool built especially for this population. It analyzes heart patterns that are unique to them, and can bring about earlier detection than is currently possible, he said.He reported in peer-reviewed research that the algorithm successfully predicted 80 percent of heart failure cases among a sample of myositis patients.The study was carried out by running the algorithm on their ECG tests, and then comparing its predictions regarding who was at risk of heart failure with medical records to see who actually ended up suffering from heart failure.“We are running ECG tests through the AI model, which sees details that doctors can’t normally detect and then predicts who is at risk of heart failure,” said Shelly.“Given that it’s these cardiac dysfunctions that often end up killing people, this can save lives.”Shelly conducted the study together with the researchers of the Cardiology Department at the prestigious US-based Mayo Clinic Medical Center.They taught the AI model by showing it ECG scans and medical records of 89 myositis patients from 2000 to 2020. The algorithm built a picture of subtle patterns in ECGs that seem to increase the chance of heart failure.It hasn’t been deployed in clinics yet, but Shelly said that this is the aim, after more research.“Further down the road, the use of this model will allow the provision of appropriate treatments at an early stage, even before the deterioration of the patients’ medical condition,” he said. “We are talking here about preventing serious illness and even deaths.”Shelly added: “Early detection is what is important here. The algorithm is looking for cardiac dysfunction, and when it finds it, doctors can take steps to prevent heart failure, such as changing treatment strategies.“For a population that is at heightened risk of heart failure, this can make a very big difference.”

Ukraine claims to shoot down swarm of Iran-made attack drones over Kyiv-No reports of injuries; US envoy to Kyiv confirms more military support on the way-By AFP and TOI staff-dec 14,22-Today, 12:37 pm 0

Ukrainian forces said Wednesday they had shot down an entire swarm of Iranian-made drones launched at the capital by Russian troops in their latest attack on Kyiv.Explosions rang out over a central neighborhood in the early hours of Wednesday, the mayor said, and AFP journalists saw law enforcement and emergency service workers inspecting metal fragments at a snow-covered impact site.“The terrorists started this morning with 13 Shaheds,” Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said, referring to the Iran-made weapons.“According to the preliminary information, all 13 were shot down by our Ukrainian air defense systems.”He added that residents of the capital, which has now been subjected to nearly ten months of air raid sirens and frequent aerial attacks since Russia invaded the country in February, should stay alert to government warnings of incoming attacks.Kyiv region officials praised the Ukrainian air defense and electronic warfare units for downing the latest wave of suicide drones.US ambassador in Ukraine Bridget Brink said following the morning attacks that Kyiv could continue to rely on Washington’s backing.“More support is on the way,” she wrote on Twitter, a day after US officials said Washington is poised to approve sending a Patriot missile battery to Ukraine, finally agreeing to an urgent request from Ukrainian leaders desperate for more robust weapons.Mayor Vitali Klitschko announced on social media at 6:41 am local time (0441 GMT) that “explosions” had been heard in the central district of Shevchenkivsky and that emergency services were responding.“Debris from downed drones hit one administrative building and four more residential buildings suffered minor damage. No one was injured,” added Sergiy Popko, the head of the Kyiv regional military administration.Since a series of key battlefield setbacks this summer and autumn, Russia has been pummeling critical infrastructure across Ukraine with missiles and drones, plunging millions into cold and darkness in winter.Moscow last week also targeted Ukrainian energy infrastructure, piling pressure on the country’s power grid, whose operators have for weeks been forced to implement rolling blackouts.Ukrainian Prime Minister Denys Shmygal said this week that between 40 and 50 percent of the country’s grid was out of action because of Russia’s strikes.The latest round of attacks on Wednesday came one day after Zelensky issued urgent appeals to around 70 countries and international organizations at a Paris conference to help Ukraine withstand Russian attacks this winter.In a video message from Kyiv, Zelensky said Tuesday that Ukraine needed assistance worth around 800 million euros in the short term for its battered energy sector.He also said that his country needs spare parts for repairs, high-capacity generators, extra gas and increased electricity imports.Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba called on Ukraine’s allies to provide his country with more weapons to help it “fight through the winter” and sustain Kyiv’s military advances.

Strike reportedly left 10 people dead, including Iranians-IDF chief confirms Israel behind strike on Iran arms convoy near Syria-Iraq border-Aviv Kohavi hails ‘advanced capabilities’ that enabled pilots to evade missile defenses and hit ‘truck number 8’ in 25-vehicle procession in early November
By TOI staff and Agencies-DEC 14,22-Today, 11:52 amUpdated at 1:15 pm 2

IDF Chief of Staff Aviv Kohavi confirmed Wednesday that an airstrike in early November on a convoy allegedly carrying Iranian arms near the Syria-Iraq border was carried out by the Israeli Air Force.Kohavi said Israeli intelligence uncovered which truck within the 25-vehicle convoy was carrying weapons from Iran to Lebanon, and “advanced capabilities” allowed the pilots to carry out a precision strike.“We could have not been aware of the Syrian convoy a few weeks ago,” Kohavi told a conference at the Reichman University in Herzliya.“We could have not known that it was heading from Iraq to Syria, we could have not known what’s in it and we could have not known that out of the 25 trucks, truck number eight was the one carrying weapons,” he said.“We needed to send pilots to the right place and they had to evade surface-to-air missiles fired at them. They needed to attack, they needed to hit their targets and come back safely and not kill people who shouldn’t be killed. These are very advanced capabilities,” said Kohavi.The strike reportedly left 10 people dead, including an unknown number of Iranians.

Nahr Media says the trucks were accompanied by Lebanese Hezbollah forces. pic.twitter.com/glXLjWoJ0r — Ariel Oseran (@ariel_oseran) November 9, 2022-At the time of the November incident, the Israeli army refused to comment, in line with its general policy to not confirm involvement in specific strikes in Syria.It wasn’t clear why Kohavi, who will end his term as military chief of staff next month, chose to acknowledge the IDF’s responsibility for the strike.Israel has allegedly carried out hundreds of strikes on targets inside government-controlled parts of Syria in recent years, but rarely acknowledges or discusses such operations. It has acknowledged, however, that it targets arms shipments and posts of Iran-allied groups, such as Lebanon’s terrorist Hezbollah.At the time, Hezbollah said it had nothing to do with the convoy that was attacked.The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, an opposition war monitor of unclear funding, said the strike hit tanker trucks carrying fuel and other trucks carrying weapons for the militias in Syria’s eastern province of Deir el-Zour.Most alleged Israeli strikes have been focused on areas of Syria closer to Damascus or the country’s center, though it has been accused of carrying out attacks outside that area as well, including in Deir el-Zour.Iran is an ally of Syrian President Bashar Assad and has sent thousands of Iran-backed fighters to help Syrian troops during the country’s 11-year civil war. Both Tehran and the Assad government are allied with Hezbollah, which has fought alongside Assad’s forces in the war.Israeli strikes have continued in Syrian airspace, which is largely controlled by Russia, even as ties with Moscow have frayed in recent months. Israel has found itself at odds with Russia as it has increasingly supported Ukraine while seeking to maintain freedom of movement in Syria’s skies.‘Over 400 attacks prevented’ by West Bank ops-Kohavi also referred to the IDF’s regular raids in the West Bank, saying hundreds of attacks have been prevented as a result of military operations.“Unfortunately, we are unable to prevent all attacks. On a personal level it causes great pain and on a professional level, it’s a failure,” Kohavi said.“Over the past year, we prevented over 400 attacks together with the Shin Bet and the security forces, which allows the citizens of the country to live in peace and get stuck in traffic jams. This is a sign of a healthy society,” Kohavi said.The military said Wednesday morning that it had detained 15 people in overnight raids in the West Bank and seized a number of weapons.Tensions have been high in the West Bank over the past year, with the IDF conducting an ongoing major anti-terror offensive mostly focused on the northern West Bank to deal with a series of Palestinian attacks that have left 31 people in Israel and the West Bank dead since the start of the year.The operation has netted more than 2,500 arrests in near-nightly raids, but has also left more than 160 Palestinians dead, many of them — but not all — while carrying out attacks or during clashes with security forces.

UN Palestinian rights official’s social media history reveals antisemitic-Francesca Albanese tells ToI she acknowledges ‘mistakes’ in past reference to a ‘Jewish lobby’; is latest UN official probing Israel to show evidence of blatant prejudice-By Luke Tress    Today, 6:54 amUpdated at 3:00 pm 26

A lawyer heading the UN Human Rights Council’s open-ended investigation into Israel’s treatment of Palestinians said during a 2014 conflict between Israel and Gaza terror groups that the “Jewish lobby” was in control of the United States.Francesca Albanese, an Italian lawyer, was appointed earlier this year as the UN special rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the Palestinian territories. The rapporteur is an independent expert appointed by the UN Human Rights Council tasked with investigating human rights in Palestinian areas, publishing public reports and working with governments and other groups on the issue.Albanese, who now says she regrets the “Jewish lobby” remark, has long been a harsh critic of Israel, and the Israeli mission to the UN in Geneva formally objected to her appointment, arguing that she harbors significant bias against the Jewish state.A review of her past social media posts, media appearances and talks with activist groups found that aside from inveighing against a “Jewish lobby,” she has also sympathized with terror organizations, dismissed Israeli security concerns, compared Israelis to Nazis and accused the Jewish state of potential war crimes.Then, as now, she refers to Israel as a settler-colonial enterprise and to Jews in Israel and the pre-state British mandate as foreign interlopers subjugating an indigenous Palestinian population. In her first official report to the UN this year, she urged a rejection of the conflict paradigm, describing Israel solely as an oppressor and legitimizing Palestinian “resistance.” She rarely acknowledges Palestinian terrorism.In 2014, in an open letter posted to her Facebook page, Albanese castigated the US and Europe for their conduct during Operation Protective Edge, a war between Israel and Gaza terror groups that year.“America and Europe, one of them subjugated by the Jewish lobby, and the other by the sense of guilt about the Holocaust, remain on the sidelines and continue to condemn the oppressed — the Palestinians — who defend themselves with the only means they have (deranged missiles), instead of making Israel face its international law responsibilities,” Albanese wrote.She was not employed by the UN at the time, but had previously worked for the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) a UN agency that assists displaced Palestinians and their descendants, according to her LinkedIn profile. The letter she posted was meant to raise funds for UNRWA.As of publication, the previously unreported post remained on her personal Facebook page, which is viewable by the public and identifies her as a UN investigator.In another post from that year, which was hidden from view after her office was contacted by The Times of Israel, Albanese referred to the Israel lobby and Israel’s greed. The comments were directed at the BBC over its coverage of the conflict, even though the British broadcaster is often critical of Israel.“The Israeli lobby is clearly inside your veins and system and you will be remembered to have been on the big brother’s side of this orwellian [sic] nightmare caused once again by Israel’s greed. Shame on you BBC,” she wrote.
And last year, she referred to Jewish and pro-Israel lobbies influencing Israeli arms sales and quieting criticism of Israel.Responding to the revelations about Albanese’s statements, the Foreign Ministry claimed that antisemitism is widespread in the UN.“Antisemitism is a persistent malice that has infected the United Nations Human Rights Council for far too long,” read a statement by Israel’s Permanent Mission to the UN in Geneva. “Comments made by UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese that surfaced today are yet another stain on the credibility of this body and yet another example of the impunity that exists today regarding antisemitism and antisemitic comments made by UN officials.”The mission argued that the lack of accountability for statements by UN officials “only works to legitimize antisemitism and endangers the Jewish people.”References to Jews and Jewish lobbies wielding disproportionate power are viewed as antisemitic because they conjure age-old tropes and conspiracy theories about Jews controlling the world from the shadows. Many of those stereotypes also depict Jews as greedy.“Talking about a uniform and ever-powerful Jewish lobby feeds into the stereotype of Jewish power, that there is a nefarious Jewish hand manipulating governments,” said Susan Heller Pinto, the vice president of international policy at the Anti-Defamation League.“When she’s saying America is subjugated by the Jewish lobby it reinforces that image of this Jewish lobby being all-powerful and America and America’s actions and policies being directed by this Jewish lobby, and that’s antisemitic,” Heller Pinto said. “It’s making generalized statements. It’s not a political critique of an Israeli action, it is blanket characterizations that invoke age-old antisemitic tropes.”Earlier this year, an investigator with the UN Commission of Inquiry into the conflict apologized after a similar “Jewish lobby” comment caused an uproar. Contacted by The Times of Israel via email, Albanese attempted to distance herself from her past remarks.“Some of the words I used, during Israel’s offensive on the Gaza Strip in 2014, were infelicitous, analytically inaccurate and unintendedly offensive,” she said through her office. “People make mistakes. I distance myself from these words, which I would not use today, nor have used as a UN Special Rapporteur.”“Following this clarification, our attention should not be distracted from the unlawful state practices which cause suffering for millions and denial of human rights on a daily basis in the occupied Palestinian territory,” she said. “This is what I am mandated to report on and which should be our focus.”Code of conduct-In her application for the special rapporteur position, Albanese stated there was not “any reason, currently or in the past, that could call into question” her moral authority or credibility, and that she did not “hold any views or opinions that could prejudice the manner” in which she investigates.Special rapporteurs are not paid for their work and are appointed to three-year terms, with the possibility of a three-year extension. The Human Rights Council code of conduct for mandate-holders stresses that they should be objective and eliminate “double-standards and politicization,” and act with “integrity, meaning, in particular, though not exclusively, probity, impartiality, equity, honesty and good faith.”Previous rapporteurs into the Palestinians have also been staunchly opposed to Israel, which is the only country that is assigned a permanent investigator. A series of mandate-holders have held the rapporteur position on the Palestinian territories since 1993.Albanese has also compared Israel to Nazi Germany, which is viewed as deeply offensive in Israel and an affront to the victims of the Holocaust.In a 2015 post uncovered by The Times of Israel, she shared a picture of what she said was a Nazi trooper and a Jewish man, and next to it, an Israeli soldier and a Palestinian. And in an interview with Italian media, she compared the Nakba, the Palestinian word for the “catastrophe” of Israel’s creation, to the Holocaust, in a comment that was previously reported by the pro-Israel group UN Watch.    In the first pic a Nazi soldier, a dog, and a man on the ground – who is a Jew. In the second pic an Israeli soldier, a dog, and a man on the ground – who is a Palestinian. Comparing Israel to Nazi Germany is considered antisemitic according to the widely-accepted definition formulated by the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance. Albanese has recently spoken out against the IHRA definition.Armed resistance-albanese has also been heavily critical of Israel in other more recent or previously reported comments, repeatedly brushing aside Israeli security concerns, including since she took up the special rapporteur position, and has justified violence against Israel and Israelis.Last month she told a podcast that Israeli security fears were “paranoia thinking.”“Israel cannot claim self-defense while illegally occupying and while directing an act of aggression against another country,” she said. “Those who have the right to self-defense are the Palestinians.”In an interview with Italian media earlier this year, she accused Israel of being “very effective in passing off the equation ‘resistance equals terrorism.’ But an occupation clearly necessitates and generates violence.” She said in another interview that Palestinian violence is “inevitable.”Earlier this year, after a flare-up between Gaza terrorists and Israel, she said, “Palestinians’ right to resist is inherent to their right to exist as a people.” She also said the right to Palestinian armed resistance was a “necessary conversation” that had been “demoted.” Palestinians' right to resist is inherent to their right to exist as a people. An unlawful act of resistance does not make the resistance unlawful. An unlawful act of an unlawful occupation makes the occupation more unlawful (and the list on the desk of the ICC Prosecutor longer) — Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur oPt (@FranceskAlbs) August 8, 2022-In a speech delivered to a gathering in Gaza via video earlier this month, she said, “There is a right to oppose this occupation.” The Times of Israel translated her comments from Arabic, although she delivered the speech in English, because the English audio was not available.“The occupier cannot say he is defending himself,” she told the audience in the enclave, which has been ruled by the Hamas terror group since a bloody takeover in 2007.Seven years earlier, she expressed joy over the European Union’s General Court taking Hamas off of its terror blacklist: “Two good news one after another from the radio while I was taking a nap. Normalization in the relations usa cuba and removal of hamas from the list of terror organizations. Was i dreaming???”The post was also recently removed. The Times of Israel contacted Albanese’s office for comment on that post and several others but did not receive a response.On at least one occasion she condemned Palestinian rockets fired at Israel.“Indiscriminate rocket fire from Gaza is no acceptable response to Israel’s unlawful bombings, because it harms civilians and it is therefore unlawful too,” she said earlier this year.Major crime allegations-She has rejected any Israeli presence in the West Bank as “foreign alien domination,” saying it has “no justification,” “no reason,” and calling it “an instrument to colonize the land.”Israel justifies its presence in the West Bank, which sits on highlands overlooking the country’s central plains, on security grounds. There is also heavily documented evidence of a Jewish presence in the West Bank going back thousands of years which is recognized by UNESCO, among other bodies.In 2018 Albanese posted a screenshot of a quote she attributed to David Ben-Gurion that said, “We will abolish partition and expand to the whole of Palestine.” The quote appeared to be a translation of a disputed 1937 letter Ben Gurion wrote to his son.Albanese commented that “taking all of Palestine (and much more in fact) has always been the plan of the Zionists.”She has also said Israel may be guilty of alleged major crimes including genocide, ethnic cleansing, war crimes and crimes against humanity.She said this year that “dozens” of journalists have been killed in the conflict since the year 2000, all by Israel. According to the UN’s own statistics, both those claims are false.“There is a practice of willful killing that is ongoing and could definitely be a crime against humanity,” she said.Even though she declared she was objective when she applied for the rapporteur position, she acknowledged on a panel last year that she had doubts about taking up the post.“Deep down perhaps I feared that embarking on research on a matter in which I had deeply held personal views could compromise my objectivity,” she said.Before she took up the position in May, Israel argued that her bias should disqualify her from the post.“The newly appointed special rapporteur’s opinion expressed in numerous articles, events and media outlets endlessly voicing anti-Israel libel show that she is unfit to take up this role,” Merav Marks, legal adviser for the Israeli mission to the UN in Geneva, said at the time.The American Jewish Committee also condemned her appointment at the time.Israel — backed at times by the United States — has long accused the Human Rights Council of anti-Israel bias and has generally refused to cooperate with its investigators.Echoes of Kothari-Albanese’s “Jewish lobby” comments echoed recent statements by another UN official investigating Israel.In July, Miloon Kothari, a member of the UN’s commission of inquiry looking into alleged Israeli crimes, said that social media was “controlled largely by the Jewish lobby.” He also questioned why Israel was allowed in the UN.Kothari’s open-ended commission of inquiry has been described as harshly critical of Israel and the country’s backers point out that it almost entirely ignores Palestinian terror and violence.Among those who have spoken out against the use of the “Jewish lobby” trope is US State Department antisemitism envoy Deborah Lipstadt, who called Kothari’s comments unacceptable.“Outrageous that a [Human Rights Council] appointed human rights expert on Israel and the West Bank and Gaza repeated antisemitic tropes [and] questioned Israel’s legitimacy as a UN member,” Lipstadt said. “It is wholly unacceptable that such comments would come from an appointed member of a Commission of Inquiry.”The Prime Minister’s Office and officials from Canada, Britain and a number of other countries have also condemned Kothari’s remarks.UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres’s office said in response to Kothari’s comments, “There is no room for antisemitism in the work of the UN.”“Israel is unquestionably a member state of the United Nations, with the same rights and responsibilities as the other 192 countries that make up this organization,” a Guterres spokesperson said. Guterres spoke out against antisemitism last month and met last week with Jewish leaders to discuss bias.Albanese is also not the first special rapporteur to be accused of trafficking in antisemitic tropes. In 2011, American jurist Richard Falk, who held the post at the time, was condemned for posting an antisemitic cartoon.“The actions of Richard Falk at the time, statements by UN officials, it just feeds into the lack of confidence that people have in the United Nations to be even-handed and constructive when it comes to anything related to Israel and even related to Jews,” said the ADL’s Heller Pinto.Defending Kothari-Albanese has defended Kothari, calling criticism of his remarks “preposterous allegations of antisemitism” and a “smear campaign.”    My solidarity with the @UN_HRC Commission of Inquiry on ISR/PAL for the preposterous allegations of Antisemitism. The CoI is mandated to investigate the "root causes" of violence & pursue accountability. May this be the real target of the smear campaign? https://t.co/btmnKo98i8— Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur oPt (@FranceskAlbs) July 29, 2022-She said criticism of the commission of inquiry “seemed to be coordinated. I think that this should prompt scrutiny.”She has also questioned Israel’s involvement in the UN, calling pro-Israel activities “vile.”“This should trigger a proper inquiry inside the UN,” she said. “I’ve personally seen the breach of the code of conduct by Israeli authorities, the Israeli ambassador.”Albanese said last week that Israel had granted her permission to visit the West Bank and East Jerusalem, but later posts appeared to say Israel had blocked the visit due to statements she has made.Her first report as a rapporteur, released in October, called Israel an “intentionally acquisitive, segregationist and repressive regime.”Reports by UN investigators are significant outside of the UN because they are cited by media and other organizations, making their way to the public, which is likely unaware of bias allegations.

Rare silver half-shekel, minted by rebels against Rome in 69 CE, found in Jerusalem-Coin found in remains of building from the Second Temple era, was likely used to pay annual tax for worship at the site; most coins of this type are bronze-By TOI staff-DEC 13,22-Today, 4:45 pm 1

A rare half-shekel silver coin, minted by Jewish rebels nearly 2,000 years ago during the Great Revolt against Roman rule, was recently found during excavations in Jerusalem, the Israel Antiquities Authority said Tuesday.It was only the third such coin of its type found during excavations in the capital, and among only a handful found in other locations, the IAA said in a statement.The coin was uncovered at the Ophel site, an area south of the Temple Mount in the Old City, during research on the remains of a public building from the Second Temple era that was apparently also sacked when the Romans, having crushed the revolt, destroyed the Temple in 70 CE.Excavations at Ophel uncovered dozens of Jewish coins from the Great Revolt, which ran from 66 to 70 CE. Most were made of bronze, but this one was silver and markings showed it was minted in the third year of the rebellion, 69 CE.Like most coins of this type, there is a cup on one side with an inscription of the coin’s value, together with ancient Hebrew letters above it giving the year it was minted, the IAA said.The other side bears a branch with three pomegranates and another inscription: “Holy Jerusalem.”The excavation was carried out by a delegation from the Hebrew University’s Institute of Archeology led by Prof. Uzi Liebner, in collaboration with the Armstrong College from Oklahoma in the US. They were assisted by the state-owned company for the development of East Jerusalem, the IAA, and the Israel Nature and Parks Authority.“This is the third coin of this type that has been discovered in excavations in Jerusalem and one of the few that have been discovered in archaeological excavations in general,” Liebner said.Minting of coins during the rebellion was a political statement and an expression of national liberation, the IAA statement said. At the time, the authority to mint coins was held only by the Roman emperor.“Indeed, throughout the Roman period until the Great Revolt, no silver coins were minted by Jews at all, not even in the days of King Herod the Great,” it said.Researchers said the coins weighed about seven grams and were used to pay the annual “half-shekel” tax at the Temple for worship costs. Until the uprising, half-shekel coins used for the tax were minted in the Lebanese city of Tyre and bore images of a deity worshiped by locals.The rebel coins, by removing such gods, were in line with the second of the Ten Commandments, which forbids making graven images of deities.“The silver coins of the Great Revolt were the first and last in antiquity to bear the name ‘shekel.’ The next time was on the Israeli shekel coins issued by the Bank of Israel in 1980,” researchers said.According to a Monday statement from the Armstrong Institute, the precious silver coins are believed to have been minted inside the Temple complex.

Surprise Maccabean-era arrowheads discovered while cleaning house at Tower of David-Some 60 bronze and iron arrowheads were forgotten in a box for decades, but will take center stage in newly renovated museum during Hannukah-By Melanie Lidman-DEC 13,22-Today, 4:09 pm 1

The Tower of David Museum in Jerusalem recently unearthed dozens of bronze and iron arrowheads dating from around the time of the Maccabees. But the stunningly preserved artifacts weren’t hidden under meters of dirt and carefully excavated by veteran archaeologists. Instead, they were sitting in a dusty cardboard box behind an old air conditioner in one of the guard towers at the Tower of David, which is undergoing a massive renovation.“I was with one of the managers, and I just couldn’t believe what I was looking at,” Eilat Lieber, the director of the Tower of David Museum, recalled of the moment they discovered the five boxes of artifacts behind a rusty air conditioner.“The first thing I did was take out my cellphone to call Renee Sivan,” one of the foremost archaeological experts who excavated the Tower of David in the 1980s, Lieber told The Times of Israel on Tuesday.Sivan recalled that some of the archaeologists must have put them aside in hopes of publishing a future paper on the intricate markings of the Greek letters epsilon and beta on some of the bronze arrowheads. But other matters captured the researchers’ attention and they lay forgotten for decades.On a sunny winter day, the Tower of David stands sentinel at the entrance to the Jaffa Gate in the Old City, a mishmash of conquering cultures with stone walls dating from the First Temple period to the Ottomans, Herod to the Hasmoneans, with a sprinkling of Muslim, Crusader, and Mameluke influences throughout the courtyard. The site’s geographic importance made it a crucial place for every passing conqueror.“If you wanted to rule the city, you had to stay here to protect the city,” said Lieber.Therefore it’s no surprise that the arrowheads are just part of a collection of war detritus that littered the area next to the ancient Hasmonean walls at the Tower of David, including slingshot bullets inscribed with winged lightning icons and more than 100 ballista, or carefully carved stone balls that were flung from the walls as projectile missiles.Reut Kozak, part of the all-female team of local archaeologists at the Tower of David, said the sheer number of surviving artifacts made an impression on the archaeologists and researchers.“It shows us the power of the siege that was here in Jerusalem, and that it was not an easy fight; it was a very strong battle,” she said. Some of the weapons date from 132 or 133 BCE, during the Bar Kochba revolt.The discovery of the arrowheads was a windfall for the Tower of David, which is completely redoing its museum and is struggling to locate the original artifacts from the excavation, which had been turned over to the Israel Antiquities Authority as required by Israeli law. In the intervening years, many of the star artifacts from the site were loaned permanently to museums around Israel.An ancient story and an ’80s hologram-When it opened, the Tower of David Museum was considered a state-of-the-art, groundbreaking museum — back in 1989.“When the museum opened to the public in 1989, it was a different concept. It was the end of the ’80s, and people were really excited about graphic design and screens,” said Lieber. Back then, using screens to tell the ancient stories of the site was revolutionary in museums, she said. The museum featured short films, moving graphics, and a hologram — but, counterintuitively, no original archaeological artifacts.“Especially over the past decade, screens and technology are everywhere, and the originals are really rare,” Lieber explained. “Now, people are looking for the authentic, the real evidence, especially when we’re talking about the media, and what’s real and what’s fake.”“It was clear to us, and especially to me as a curator, that the power of the original is necessary here to build the new concept and context together with the beauty of the past,” Lieber added. She said that while the walls and arches of the historical site are beautiful, they can be overwhelming, while smaller artifacts can be easier for visitors to understand and help them relate the past to their present lives.A new museum for an old story-The renovation of the entire Tower of David site has been in the planning stages for much of the past decade, and construction was set to begin in March 2020. In January 2020, the site’s leadership started holding talks to try to understand how they could undertake a massive renovation while still hosting half a million visitors a year.When the pandemic shut down tourism, the museum was able to accelerate its renovations and is on track to finish in half the time. The new museum is expected to open in spring 2023, with hundreds of artifacts uncovered on-site on display. There will also be some multimedia explaining the history of the site. However, to the possible disappointment of ’80s nostalgia buffs, no holograms are planned.The Tower of David is hosting tours in English during Hanukkah to connect the story of the holiday to the stone walls that visitors can see and touch, to bring to life the Maccabean revolt against the Greeks and the recapturing of Jerusalem, with the miracle oil that lasted for eight full days.The site contains some of the best-preserved excavations of daily Hasmonean life during the time of the Maccabees, including private homes near the original city walls of Jerusalem. Traditional Hasmonean stone carving, more rough-hewn than the smooth Herodian stones, make up the bulk of the original city walls.“These arrowheads are part of the story that we’re telling the visitors every day, and especially now on Hanukkah,” said Leiber. “When we have evidence, it gives so much power to the story, to be able to see real evidence of the story they’ve known since they were very young children.”

In first, Israeli scientists program hens to lay eggs that carry only female chicks-Gene editing technology developed by Volcani Center scientists, who say it has potential to stop ‘devastating’ destruction of 7 billion unwanted male chicks globally each year-By Sue Surkes-DEC 13,22-Today, 4:36 pm 1

In a dramatic breakthrough with the potential to halt the destruction of some seven billion unwanted male chicks globally each year, Israeli scientists have produced a gaggle of hens all called Golda that are the first in the world to lay eggs that only produce females, the developers said Tuesday.The technology has been in development for seven years, with embryology expert Dr. Yuval Cinnamon heading a team at the Israeli Agricultural Research Organization — Volcani Center, in partnership with Poultry by Huminn.“The size of the egg-laying market in the world is estimated at about 7 billion laying hens, and for each hen, a male chick is culled. The production of table eggs in the world is estimated at over two trillion eggs per year — over 80 million tons,” Cinnamon told The Times of Israel.“We are very happy to be able to provide a viable solution to… the most devastating animal welfare issue in the livestock industry worldwide, for the benefit of animals and humankind,” he said.Male chicks born to egg-laying hens cost more to care for than they would ever sell for as meat, unable to compete with meat chickens, or “broilers,” which are born to a different kind of hen. Broilers are typically larger breeds with more muscle content, chosen because they grow very large, very quickly. Although they also lay eggs, broiler hens lay them much less often than laying hen breeds. Laying hens (“layers”) are leaner and smaller.The scientists’  discovery has the potential to nearly halve the cost of hatching and eliminate the investment currently needed to sort and dispose of male chicks by unsavory methods that range from suffocation and gassing to being ground up while still alive.The technology was announced last year with the hatching of the first Golda chicks. The variety is named Golda after the color of the hens, not the late prime minister of Israel Golda Meir, although a spokesperson said this was a happy coincidence.Since then, the chicks have grown into adult hens and laid their own eggs, and the technology has been shown to work.Roosters carry the Z chromosome while hens carry Z for males and W for females. The coupling of two Zs leads to a male chick being born. If the mother supplies the W chromosome to the father’s Z, a female chick will emerge.The research team discovered a way to genetically edit the hen’s Z chromosome so that eggs carrying male embryos will stop developing at an early stage and will not hatch.Golda’s eggs are fertile eggs from which only females hatch and these female chicks then lay table eggs.The female chicks that result are not genetically modified in any way because they inherited the unedited W chromosome from the mother and the untouched Z chromosome from the father.According to a Huminn company statement, the European Union’s director general for Health and Food Safety has examined the technology and confirmed that both the egg-laying hens from the Golda line and the eggs that they lay can be sold without any regulatory change.Cinnamon added that the US FDA was evaluating the research and that he hoped it, and Israel’s Agriculture Ministry, would follow suit.This development comes as the demand for eggs is expected to rise by 50% globally from 2020 to 2035.Golda hens will be kept at poultry breeding centers, while their offspring will be sold to farmers for the production of unfertilized eggs for eating.Yaarit Wainberg, CEO of Poultry by Huminn, added, “In recent years, we have witnessed a change in awareness around the world regarding animal welfare, but on the other hand, no practical solutions have been identified to stop the unfortunate phenomenon of killing the male chicks. We are proud and excited to be the first in the world to offer an effective solution, with a significant contribution to the entire value chain — all this based on Israeli science and innovation.”A spokeswoman for Huminn and the Volcani Center explained that there were no photographs of the mature Golda hens because of the need to maintain total sterility in the laboratory. Once the variety becomes commercial, they will live like any other egg-laying hen.Huminn — established five years ago under the name NRS Agro Innovation — is an American-Israeli innovation company that helps to create and commercializes innovative solutions in health, nutrition, environmental quality, and human and animal welfare.It has signed several strategic collaborations with Israeli organizations. In addition to the Volcani Center, these include the Weizmann Institute of Science, Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, and The National Institute for Biotechnology in the Negev.

Associated Press-Recount confirms Lauren Boebert narrowly held her House seat-ASSOCIATED PRESS-Mon, December 12, 2022 at 9:07 PM

DENVER (AP) — An automatic recount confirmed Monday that Republican Rep. Lauren Boebert won her reelection bid against Democrat Adam Frisch. The nail-biter race showed the congresswoman's combative style is wearying voters in her conservative Colorado district.Secretary of State Jena Griswold announced the results Monday evening. Frisch netted a total of four votes in the recount, far from enough to close a 500-plus vote gap with Boebert. An Aspen City Councilman, Frisch had already conceded the race last month after the first tally put him just under the state's margin for a mandatory recount.Few expected the race to come down to such a narrow margin. In her first term in office, Boebert rocketed to national renown for her staunch support for former President Donald Trump, aggressive use of social media and willingness to engage in personal feuds with Democratic representatives.Frisch ran against what her called her “ angertainment,” saying he wouldn't back U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi as party leader and describing himself as a nonpartisan problem-solver. Few gave him much of a chance in the conservative 3rd Congressional District, which edges up against some famed, liberal ski towns but is dominated by vast, less glamorous and energy-rich swathes of rural Colorado.

Fortune-People who skipped their COVID vaccine are at higher risk of traffic accidents, according to a new study-Tue, December 13, 2022 at 1:31 PM

If you passed on getting the COVID vaccine, you might be a lot more likely to get into a car crash.Or at least those are the findings of a new study published this month in The American Journal of Medicine. During the summer of 2021, Canadian researchers examined the encrypted government-held records of more than 11 million adults, 16% of whom hadn’t received the COVID vaccine.They found that the unvaccinated people were 72% more likely to be involved in a severe traffic crash—in which at least one person was transported to the hospital—than those who were vaccinated. That’s similar to the increased risk of car crashes for people with sleep apnea, though only about half that of people who abuse alcohol, researchers found.The excess risk of car crash posed by unvaccinated drivers “exceeds the safety gains from modern automobile engineering advances and also imposes risks on other road users,” the authors wrote.Of course, skipping a COVID vaccine does not mean that someone will get into a car crash. Instead, the authors theorize that people who resist public health recommendations might also “neglect basic road safety guidelines.”Why would they ignore the rules of the road? Distrust of the government, a belief in freedom, misconceptions of daily risks, “faith in natural protection,” “antipathy toward regulation,” poverty, misinformation, a lack of resources, and personal beliefs are potential reasons proposed by the authors.The findings are significant enough that primary care doctors should consider counseling unvaccinated patients on traffic safety—and insurance companies might base changes to insurance policies on vaccination data, the authors suggest.First responders may also consider taking precautions to protect themselves from COVID when responding to traffic crashes, the authors added, as it’s more likely that a driver is unvaccinated than vaccinated.“The findings suggest that unvaccinated adults need to be careful indoors with other people and outside with surrounding traffic,” the authors concluded.This isn’t the first time that researchers have examined the link between behavior and vaccination status. Among young adults, a 2021 study published in the Journal of Bioeconomics found a correlation between self-reported risky driving and having skipped their flu vaccine. It examined the survey responses of more than 100,000 Canadians.This story was originally featured on Fortune.com

NBC News-POTS, a debilitating heart condition, is linked to Covid and, to a lesser degree, vaccines-Berkeley Lovelace Jr-Mon, December 12, 2022 at 4:04 PM

Research published Monday has confirmed a link between a Covid infection and a debilitating heart condition called POTS, or postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome, that has been diagnosed in some patients with long Covid.The findings, published in the journal Nature Cardiovascular Research, are in line with earlier reports from physicians that Covid may trigger POTS, a disorder of the autonomic nervous system often characterized by a rapid heart rate, low blood pressure, fainting and lightheadedness.Physicians often fail to recognize the condition, experts say, because it can be confused with a myriad of other health problems, including anxiety and dehydration. Many patients spend years trying to get properly diagnosed.One of the earlier discoveries with long Covid was that it could be associated with POTS and this new research builds on that, said lead study author Dr. Alan Kwan, a cardiologist at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center.POTS was also linked, to a lesser degree, to Covid vaccination with an mRNA vaccine, according to the new study.Researchers analyzed data on nearly 300,000 patients from the Cedars-Sinai Health System in Los Angeles County from 2020 to 2022 who had either received at least one dose of a Covid vaccine or had a confirmed case of Covid. The vast majority of the vaccinated people in the study got an mRNA vaccine — either from Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna. People with a confirmed case of Covid had not been vaccinated.While the researchers found a small but increased risk of POTS following Covid vaccination and, in particular, the first dose, the risk was greater following a Covid infection itself: Getting Covid was linked to a five times greater risk of POTS than vaccination.“The main message here is that while we see a potential link between Covid-19 vaccination and POTS, preventing Covid-19 through vaccination is still the best way to reduce your risk of developing POTS,” Kwan said.He added the study has limitations, including that the results were based on patient data from a single health system. He also said that the link between POTS and Covid vaccination needs to be confirmed with further studies.It’s unclear why the Covid vaccines would trigger the condition, Kwan said, but added that it could be related to the immune response generated by the shots.Dr. Ofer Levy, the director of the Precision Vaccines Program at Boston Children’s Hospital, agreed.He noted that Pfizer’s and Moderna’s vaccines have been linked to a small risk of myocarditis. That condition, he said, may also be related to the immune response generated by the shots. Still, the myocarditis risk is significantly higher after a Covid infection than after vaccination.Researchers should further explore the immune response to shots, because “the better we understand how the adverse events work, the smarter we can become in designing better vaccines in the future,” Levy said.Other vaccines have also been linked to POTS in early accounts, but further research did not establish a causal link.The HPV vaccine Gardasil, for example, was thought to cause POTS based on early reports, but subsequent reviews found that not to be the case, said Dr. William Schaffner, an infectious diseases expert at Vanderbilt University Medical Center, who was not involved with the new research.The link between an infection — including Covid — and POTS, however, is more well-established."Many conditions can trigger POTS, including viral infections such as SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes Covid-19," Dr. Bala Munipalli, a physician who heads the Post-Acute Sequelae of Covid Clinic at the Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville, Florida, said in an email.POTS following other types of infection is not uncommon, Schaffner said. The condition has been linked to a number of viral or bacterial infections, including influenza, mononucleosis and Lyme disease.Dr. Daniel Dudenkov, a physician at the Mayo Clinic, said that although Covid vaccines may be associated with POTS, it is important to keep in mind that Covid infection itself is much more likely to lead to POTS."Vaccines continue to be an important strategy to fight against Covid and its effects," he said.Schaffner agreed, saying the event following vaccination is "rare.""The risk of this happening is much greater with Covid than it is with the vaccine. So please get vaccinated," he said.This article was originally published on NBCNews.com

Why You May Soon Find Yourself in ‘Digital Prison’by Dr. Joseph Mercola | Children's Health Defense-December 13th 2022, 8:19 am
Your digital identity will be required to unlock all aspects of life, from logging onto the internet to accessing social services, travel, food, shopping and financial services

An international vaccine passport, digital identity, a social credit system and a central bank digital currency (CBDC) form a digital control system that will lock down the population in perpetuity.Facial recognition is an essential part of the control structure, as it’s the “password” to your digital identity.By the end of 2022, there will be 1 billion data-collecting surveillance cameras in the world, all connected to the internet and artificial intelligence (AI). Cameras and audio recording devices in cell phones, automobiles and smart appliances also collect and share data. All these data are then used to give each person an individual score, based on their behavior, expression and interaction with the world. Ultimately, your social credit score, will dictate what you can and cannot do, what you can buy and where you can go. AI is an absolutely crucial component, without which the control system cannot work. The easiest way to push against this system is to starve AI of data by refusing to use technologies that collect and share your personal data.In the video below, Maria Zeee with ZeeeMedia interviews computer scientist Aman Jabbi about the coming international vaccine passport, digital identity, the social credit system being built in the West and CBDCs.All these factors are now coming together to control the global population. As noted by Zeee, this digital prison, which is already mostly built, will be the final lockdown of mankind.Your digital identity will be your digital prison-In the video, Jabbi goes through a presentation that explains the digital prison that is your digital identity — in other words, how your digital identity ties in with the coming social credit system and will control what you can and cannot do in your everyday life.As noted by Jabbi, surveillance cameras with facial recognition software have already been erected around the world. They are an essential part of the control structure, and this surveillance will be linked together with digital identity, the social credit score system, carbon footprint tracking, CBDCs and more.Facial recognition has been sold as a great convenience and security feature. With facial recognition, you don’t need to remember pins or passwords, and since no one has your exact face, it’s supposed to keep your personal accounts more secure.But, as with most other technologies sold under the guise of convenience and security, facial recognition is ultimately a tool for mass control and an essential part of your individual digital prison. As explained by Jabbi, the Chinese control system is based on facial recognition in combination with a social credit system.He describes the Chinese social credit system as a feedback system that responds based on your behavior. Unbeknownst to most Westerners, an identical system has already been set in motion behind the scenes in Western countries — they just haven’t told you yet.Weaponized surveillance By the end of 2022, there will be 1 billion data collecting surveillance cameras in the world, all connected to the internet and AI. The U.S. actually has the most surveillance cameras per capita. China is in second place and the U.K. is in third.In addition to all of that data collection, cameras and audio recording devices in cell phones, automobiles and smart appliances also collect and share data, even when you’re at home.All these data are then used to give each person an individual score based on their behavior, expression and interaction with the world. Ultimately, that score —  your social credit score — will dictate what you can and cannot do, what you can buy and where you can go.As noted by Jabbi, there are also additional control mechanisms already built into the hardware being erected. For example, many smart light poles have built-in charging stations for drones, which in the future will be used for law and behavioral enforcement purposes. We will largely be policed by AI and machines.These smart light poles can also be weaponized. Built-in are LED incapacitators. Sometimes referred to as “puke rays” for their ability to induce severe nausea, LED incapacitators are weapons designed like a flashlight that emit an extremely bright, rapid and well-focused series of “differently-colored random pulses.”According to Jabbi, these lights can also induce brain damage, spinal damage, sickness and likely even death.LED combined with radar on some smart poles can also be used to identify people carrying guns, and could theoretically be used as a weapon to selectively take out people carrying weapons.A new chapter in the ‘social contract’Digital identity has been described by the World Economic Forum (WEF) as a new chapter in the social contract. The problem, as noted by Jabbi, is that the WEF’s new social contract is one that none of us has agreed to. It’s being revised by the WEF and its allies and thrust upon the rest of us, without our consent.The vast majority of people don’t even know what this new social contract actually entails, or how it will affect their personal day-to-day lives and individual decision-making ability.That, for obvious reasons, has never been fully delineated because, if fully understood by everyone, virtually no one on earth would accept it. After all, few people with normal intelligence relish having their lives dictated by someone else.digital identity wef chart Source: World Economic Forum-As shown in the graphic above, your digital identity will be required to unlock all aspects of life, from logging onto the internet to accessing social services, travel, food, shopping and financial services. If your social credit score is too low, one or more of these aspects can be turned off and made unavailable to you.“So, by default, you’re always a prisoner,” Jabbi says.Your digital identity is confirmed through facial recognition, and is tied to your social score, carbon footprint score and CBDCs. As your social and carbon footprint scores go down, so does your purchasing ability.As noted by Zeee, the international vaccine passport proposed at the 2022 G20 meeting is, at least right now, THE key to the entire effort to get everyone into the digital ID system. So, preventing the adoption of vaccine passports is a central component of resistance to the digital prison system in its entirety.Jabbi says:“Once we accept digital identity, it’s Game Over for humanity.”You must also reject the vaccine passport unless you’re willing to be a medical lab rat for the rest of your life. Zeee cites documents stating 500 new vaccines will be ready by 2030 that target most common diseases.It is likely that having an up-to-date vaccination status will be one of the requirements to maintain a valid passport, which will also serve as your digital identity.In other words, vaccine refusal can be used to nullify or “lock” your digital ID, leaving you unable to do, go or buy anything. The question is, what will those vaccines be? Basically, you’ll have no choice but to comply, even if you believe or know that a vaccine can injure or kill you, as is the case with the COVID-19 jabs.Zero-trust system-As explained by Jabbi, the new social contract created by the WEF and its allies is a zero-trust system.In a physical prison, prisoners are under a zero-trust policy. In other words, the guards don’t trust the prisoners and there are security measures in place to make sure they behave. The new open-air prison system envisioned by the WEF is based on the same premise.Everywhere you go, you must prove who you are and that your compliance metrics are in alignment with the prevailing rules. So, to buy food, you have to not only identify yourself so that your purchase can be permanently logged as one of your purchases, but you also have to meet certain compliance standards, or else your CBDC won’t work.The default in this system is denial, so everything you want to do — absolutely everything — must be unlocked by your digital ID. As noted by Jabbi, “Once we accept digital identity, it’s Game Over for humanity.”Geofencing and smart cities form the walls of your prisonTo enforce your conditional access to life, geofencing will be used. Smart light poles equipped with LED incapacitators can be used to prevent you from going beyond your designated geofence, but there are also other geofencing mechanisms.For example, your CBDC can be programmed to not work outside your district, and your smart car can be programmed to shut down past a certain perimeter. Jabbi also reviews the inexorable push toward smart cities, which will: Limit your mobility and eliminate car ownership-Control you through weaponized surveillance-Ration water, electricity and gas consumption-Surveil your speech-Track your actions and whereabouts 24/7-Starve the beast Jabbi cites a formula created by the WEF’s philosophical guru Yuval Noah Harrari, to describe technocrats’ ever-growing ability to hack humans: B x C x D = AHH.B stands for biological knowledge, C is computing power, D is data and AHH is the level of ability to hack a human being. As noted by Jabbi, the ability to hack humans is dependent on AI being fed a constant stream of data.It’s a “beast system” in the sense that AI is the beast, and it needs to be fed. Its food is data, gathered through a vast array of data conduits such as cameras, recording devices, facial recognition, GPS and sensors of all kinds that make up the Internet of Bodies. You can learn more about this in “Manufactured Dystopia — Globalists Won’t Stop Hacking Humans.”AI is an absolutely crucial component for success of the digital prison. Without it, it cannot work. The answer then is to starve the beast, and we do this by withholding our data. “No amount of legislation can stop this,” he says, “it has to be done by the people.” In short, we must refuse to use the technologies that gather our data.We won’t be able to avoid them all. Smart light poles and traffic cameras, for example, cannot be avoided unless you avoid certain areas, which could include your own street. But there are many we can avoid, such as smart watches, fitness trackers, smart thermostats, smart TVs, AI assistants and Ring surveillance cameras just to name a few.We can also fight, on a local level, to prevent the expansion of facial recognition cameras and 5G, and we can refuse the coming vaccine passport and the push toward virtual reality.As noted by Jabbi, one way in which people are surreptitiously led into the digital prison is by relying on apps that offer convenience, such as apps that allow you to order food or transportation.Eventually, they’ll phase out apps on your phone and transfer them to virtual reality googles, so that you have to be in the virtual world in order to use them. It’s important to understand why this is done. It’s to force you deeper into the digital prison system, which includes digital clones and living much of your life in a virtual reality.China demonstrates coming prison state- JUST IN – Chinese government remotely switched all the protesters's COVID passports to code red. Meanwhile Chinese iPhone factory workers clash with police as COVID protest turns violent. https://t.co/1u3xnTJ6wR pic.twitter.com/5D3aT09EzP — Songpinganq (@songpinganq) November 23, 2022-At present, China is being rocked by massive protests against the Zero-COVID policy that is used to imprison tens of millions of people in their homes for weeks on end. You’d think an American company like Apple would stand for American values like freedom but, no, it does not. It’s working with the Chinese government to quell dissent.As reported by Bloomberg Nov. 9, Apple is limiting its iPhone file-sharing tool, restricting AirDrops from non-contacts to 10 minutes. The wireless file-sharing feature was used to share pictures and videos from the protests, thereby encouraging more people to join.According to Bloomberg, while the change was only made to phones sold in China, Apple says it plans to roll out the same limitation globally. Why? Are they predicting anti-government protests elsewhere? According to a Twitter user named Songpinganq, the video above shows iPhone workers clashing with police over the country’s Zero-COVID policy. In response, the Chinese government is alleged to have remotely switched all of the protesters’ COVID-19 passports to “red,” which prevents them from entering public spaces.If they try to enter a building, for example — including residential complexes — an alarm will go off and they’ll be detained and escorted to a quarantine camp which, by the way, they have to pay for. That’s how easy it is for the government to eliminate undesirables from society once this kind of control system is in place.(For the record, I cannot confirm that the featured video is indeed iPhone workers, or that they’re specifically protesting the COVID-19 measures. Regardless, the basic premise remains true, which is that government would be able to control large masses of people remotely, through their digital identity/vaccine passport.)The first video below is said to be from a Chinese quarantine camp. A health worker walks through the complex measuring the detainees’ body temperature. The second video shows the inside of a quarantine cubicle.For those who don't know what china's covid quarantine camps looks like.This may help you…and you need to pay for your own isolation in china. ic.twitter.com/7oUuF9dpTw— Songpinganq (@songpinganq) January 9, 2022-This is how chinese government feed covid inmates.

U.S. says nuclear fusion breakthrough "will go down in the history books"Lilia Luciano-Tue, December 13, 2022 at 10:14 AM

The U.S. Department of Energy announced Tuesday a monumental milestone in nuclear fusion research: a "net energy gain" was achieved for the first time in history by scientists from the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in California."Simply put, this is one of the most impressive scientific feats of the 21st century," Jennifer Granholm, U.S. energy secretary, said at a press conference, adding that researchers have been working on this for decades."It strengthens our national security, and ignition allows us to replicate certain conditions only found in the stars and in the sun," she said. "This milestone moves us one significant step closer to the possibility of zero carbon abundance fusion energy powering our society."The impact of the scientists' work will assist U.S. industries nationwide, Granholm said."Today, we tell the world that America has achieved a significant scientific breakthrough," said Granholm.The hope is that it could be used to develop a clean source of power that would discontinue reliance on fossil fuels."The day you get more energy out than you put in, the sky's the limit," American astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson told CBS News.Nuclear fusion has been considered the holy grail of energy creation that some say could save humans from extinction. It combines two hydrogen atoms, which then makes helium and a whole lot of energy.It's how stars, like our sun, generate power."We've known how to fuse atoms and generate energy. We just haven't been able to control it," said deGrasse Tyson, author of "Starry Messenger: Cosmic Perspectives on Civilization."Nuclear fusion technology has been around since the creation of the hydrogen bomb, but using that technology to harness energy has required decades of research."They took 200 laser beams, some of the most powerful on the planet Earth, converged that energy down to a pellet, a pellet the size of a BB," said Dr. Michio Kaku, a professor of theoretical physics at the City College of New York. "And just remember, fusion power has no nuclear waste to speak of, no meltdowns to worry about."Scientists believe fusion plants would be much safer than today's nuclear fission plants — if the process can be mastered.That's the goal of a multinational, multibillion-dollar project called the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor, or ITER, which is under construction in southern France.Currently, nuclear power plants use fission, which breaks atoms apart to make energy. Even thought it's not burning fossil fuel, meltdowns like Chernobyl and Fukushima are evidence that our nuclear fission can still harm humans — and our environment.But now, fusion's moment appears to finally be here."We're long overdue to have converted something so destructive that finally it could be used for a peaceful purpose in the service of civilization," deGrasse Tyson said.Granholm said scientists have achieved a milestone that will reach far beyond Tuesday's announcement."This is a landmark achievement for the researchers and staff at the National Ignition Facility who have dedicated their careers to seeing fusion ignition become a reality, and this milestone will undoubtedly spark even more discovery," Granholm said, adding that the breakthrough "will go down in the history books.'

SEC Chairman Gensler Scrubbed Evidence Of Clinton, Soros And Pelosi Meetings: FOIA Lawsuit-by Zero Hedge-December 13th 2022, 5:07 am

Sunlight is the best disinfectant – unless you’re Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Chairman Gary Gensler – who scrubbed evidence of a meeting with former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton from his calendar, along with key details of a meeting with Billionaire leftist-operative George Soros.He also concealed September 21 meetings with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and former Bill Clinton White House official-turned-DC consultant, Minyon Moore.Gensler, a former Goldman Sachs executive, Obama administration official, Clinton’s 2016 campaign CFO, and FTX associate, essentially had two calendars. His public calendar showed that on Aug. 7, 2021, he only had a staff meeting, while his private calendar lists a meeting with Hillary Clinton, Fox News reports.Thirteen days later on Aug. 20, 2021, Gensler’s public calendar does list a meeting with Soros, but the agenda was hidden. His private calendar reveals that the meeting was held to discuss an upcoming WSJ op-ed Soros was planning to write in which he slammed BlackRock for launching investment products for Chinese customers, while also applauding the company’s ESG policies.Gensler’s private calendar revealing the discrepancies was obtained by the watchdog group Energy Policy Advocates and shared with Fox News Digital. The group was only able to obtain the internal records after filing a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit against the SEC.In recent days, around the time Fox News Digital contacted the SEC, the agency updated Gensler’s public calendar to include his meeting with Clinton in August 2021. As recently as Wednesday the public calendar didn’t include the meeting, and archived copies of the webpage from April also list just a meeting with staff. -Fox News-When contacted for comment, the SEC initially lied – saying that the Clinton meeting was visible on Gensler’s public calendar. When confronted with screenshots to the contrary, the spokesperson said that the agency updates calendars “from time to time” when inaccuracies are discovered (by watchdog groups?). Gensler also concealed several September 2021 meetings with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), and Minyon Moore – both of which have been now updated on Gensler’s public calendar.“That even George Soros is calling out progressive darling BlackRock for craven blundering is striking — even if it did carry the requisite, tribal praise for BlackRock’s truly damaging ‘ESG’ (environmental, social and governance) campaigning to impose their shared ‘climate’ agenda on the U.S., an agenda also much to China’s delight,” said Chris Horner, a lawyer representing Energy Policy Advocates. “That it appears Soros received counsel from Gary Gensler on the mega-donor’s call for more SEC powers as a result is truly astonishing.“This gives further credence to the widespread concern that Gensler is deeply politicizing a supposedly independent commission,” he continued. “He may have been Hillary Clinton’s ‘Progressive Beacon’ not long ago, but Gary Gensler is now the SEC chairman, and his calendar indicates he knew the purpose of the meeting. It seems important to know whose idea this was, why, what was said arranging it and through what channel.”According to the SEC spokesperson, Gensler has never asked anyone to ‘draft or submit’ an op-ed, but declined to comment on the meeting with Soros.Gensler has faced heavy criticism from business groups and Republican lawmakers for pushing progressive policies, including a climate disclosure rule that would require publicly traded companies to share carbon emissions data and other climate information. Reps. Bill Huizenga, R-Mich., and Andy Barr, R-Ky., two top GOP members on the House Financial Services Committee, introduced legislation this month that would limit the SEC’s ability to require such climate disclosures. -Fox News-“That this and Gensler’s consultation with Hillary were scrubbed from the public version of his calendar is frankly the least surprising aspect of this,” Horner continued. “The SEC first told Energy Policy Advocates that the publicly posted calendars were all they would get.”“Energy Policy Advocates challenged that, pointing out that these sanitized versions, typically posted months after the fact, were certainly not produced from memory and the group wanted the originals. Here you see the reason for the scrubbing these internal versions receive.“

Biden signs gay marriage bill into law at White House ceremony-US president touts legislation as ‘a blow against hate in all its forms,’ claims link between ‘racism, antisemitism, homophobia, transphobia’ By CHRIS MEGERIAN-DEC 13,22-Today, 2:06 am 0

WASHINGTON (AP) — US President Joe Biden signed gay marriage legislation into law Tuesday before a crowd of thousands, a ceremony that reflected growing acceptance of same-sex unions.“This law and the love it defends strike a blow against hate in all its forms,” Biden said on the South Lawn of the White House. “And that’s why this law matters to every single American.”Lawmakers from both parties were there, as well as first lady Jill Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris and her husband, Doug Emhoff. Singers Sam Smith and Cyndi Lauper performed.“For once, our families, mine and a lot of my friends — and people you know, sometimes your neighbors — we can rest easy tonight, because our families are validated,” Lauper said at the White House briefing room before the ceremony.Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, a New York Democrat, wore the same purple tie to the ceremony that he wore to his daughter’s wedding. His daughter and her wife are expecting their first child in the spring.“Thanks to the dogged work of many of my colleagues, my grandchild will live in a world that will respect and honor their mothers’ marriage,” Schumer said on the Senate floor in the morning.The triumphant mood played out against the backdrop of a right-wing backlash over gender issues, which has alarmed gay and transgender people and their advocates. Biden criticized the “callous, cynical laws introduced in the states targeting transgender children, terrifying families and criminalizing doctors who give children the care they need.”“Racism, antisemitism, homophobia, transphobia, they’re all connected,” Biden said. “But the antidote to hate is love.”Among the attendees were the owner of Club Q, a gay nightclub in Colorado where five people were killed in a shooting last month, and two survivors of the attack. The suspect has been charged with hate crimes.Plaintiffs from lawsuits that originally helped secure the nationwide right to gay marriage were also there.“It’s not lost on me that our struggle for freedom hasn’t been achieved,” said Kelley Robinson, president of the Human Rights Campaign. “But this is a huge step forward, and we have to celebrate the victories we achieve and use that to fuel the future of the fight.”Robinson attended the ceremony with her wife and 1-year-old child.“Our kids are watching this moment,” she said. “It’s very special to have them here and show them that we’re on the right side of history.”The new law is intended to safeguard gay marriages if the US Supreme Court ever reverses Obergefell v. Hodges, its 2015 decision legalizing same-sex unions nationwide. The new law also protects interracial marriages. In 1967, the Supreme Court in Loving v. Virginia struck down laws in 16 states barring interracial marriage.The signing marks the culmination of a monthslong bipartisan effort sparked by the Supreme Court’s decision in June to overturn Roe v. Wade, the 1973 ruling that made abortion available across the country.In a concurring opinion in the case that overturned Roe, Justice Clarence Thomas suggested revisiting other decisions, including the legalization of gay marriage, generating fear that more civil rights could be imperiled by the court’s conservative majority. Thomas did not include interracial marriage with other cases he said should be reconsidered.
Lawmakers crafted a compromise that was intended to assuage conservative concerns about religious liberty, such as ensuring churches could still refuse to perform gay marriages.In addition, states will not be required to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples. But they will be required to recognize marriages conducted elsewhere in the country.A majority of Republicans in Congress still voted against the legislation. However, enough supported it to sidestep a filibuster in the Senate and ensure its passage.Tuesday’s ceremony marks another chapter in Biden’s legacy on gay rights.He memorably — and unexpectedly — endorsed same-sex unions in a television interview in 2012, when he was vice president. Days later, US president Barack Obama announced that he also supported gay marriage.A clip of the interview was played at the ceremony.“What this is all about is a simple proposition: Who do you love?” Biden said on NBC’s “Meet the Press” a decade ago. “Who do you love and will you be loyal to the person you love? And that is what people are finding out is what all marriages at their root are about.”A Gallup poll showed only 27% of US adults supported same-sex unions in 1996, when US president Bill Clinton signed the Defense of Marriage Act, which said the federal government would only recognize heterosexual marriages. Biden voted for the legislation.By the time of Biden’s 2012 interview, gay marriage remained controversial, but support had expanded to roughly half of US adults, according to Gallup. Earlier this year, 71% said same-sex unions should be recognized by law.Biden has pushed to expand LGBT rights since taking office. He reversed former US president Donald Trump’s efforts to strip transgender people of anti-discrimination protections. His administration includes the first openly gay Cabinet member, Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, and the first transgender person to receive Senate confirmation, Assistant Secretary for Health Rachel Levine.

CBS News-California school board scandal: Students subjected to "adult party"Li Cohen-Tue, December 13, 2022 at 9:00 AM

The president of a California school district board appears to have resigned after he was accused of paying high school choir students to perform at a "private adult party" at his residence. During that party, according to the complaining parents, the students were offered alcohol and subject to inappropriate comments from a "dirty Santa," among other things.Steven Llanusa was the president of Claremont Unified School District in Los Angeles County, a district representing two high schools, an intermediate school and six elementary schools. He had just been reelected as a school board trustee in the November election after campaigning as a 35-year teacher and a delegate to the state California School Board.But last week, his track record with the area came to a screeching halt when allegations emerged that he had subjected high school students to an inappropriate situation at his home.He was accused of hosting a private party at his home the weekend of Dec. 3, for which he allegedly invited high school choir students to perform. But according to the parents of the students who went, the party seemed to be one of debauchery."Mr. Llanusa invited the high school choir group into his private adult party in his home," Sabrina Ho, one of the teen's parents told the Claremont school board at a special meeting on Friday, according to video shared by CBS Los Angeles. "They were encouraged to take part in food and festivities. The students didn't begin their scheduled performance until over an hour later and were offered alcohol by party guests among inappropriately dressed adult entertainers."Another person who attended the party shared a photo with CBS Los Angeles of shirtless performers in Santa and elf hats."I'm heartbroken for my son and his beloved choir group. I'm devastated as a parent," another parent said at the meeting.And another, Gabriel Lozano, said his daughter was surrounded by drunken party attendees and that she and other students were interviewed by local police."They were offered an open bar and to socialize with the half-naked men, the dirty Santa that offered and made disgusting comments to our children," Lozano told CBS Los Angeles.No other current or past school board members were at the party, Kathy Archer, the board's vice president said at the meeting.The board released a statement on Friday saying it had met with legal counsel as well as the superintendent to review the allegations. Llanusa was not at the closed session meeting, they said."We are appalled by the allegations, which are understandably causing distraction, disruption and pain, as expressed in community members' messages to the Board and Superintendent. Please know that we receive and read your messages, and we take your concerns very seriously," they wrote on Facebook. "Though the board cannot require Mr. Llanusa's resignation, we encourage him to do so in order to begin the process of healing and returning our focus to students and their well-being."According to the Los Angeles Times, Llanusa resigned over the weekend. He is no longer listed on the school board's website, but a previous version of the webpage showed that he first joined the board in December 2005. His school district email is also no longer working. CBS News has reached out to Llanusa for comment through his social media.

2022 among the deadliest years in recent memory for Israelis and Palestinians-31 people in Israel and West Bank killed in terror attacks; more than 165 Palestinians reported killed amid months-long IDF crackdown, highest toll since 2007-By Emanuel Fabian-DEC 13,22-Today, 7:52 pm 1

With a series of deadly terror attacks and near-nightly clashes between the Israeli military and Palestinian gunmen as the army has ramped up operations in the West Bank, 2022 is shaping up to be the deadliest year for both Israelis and Palestinians in years.According to data from the Shin Bet security agency, 27 Israeli civilians and foreigners were killed in terror attacks committed by Palestinian or Arab Israeli terrorists in Israel or the West Bank so far this year.Another three soldiers were killed in attacks directed against troops, and one police commando was killed during clashes with Palestinian gunmen in a West Bank operation.In 2015, 29 people were killed in Palestinian attacks during a string of knifing, shooting, and ramming incidents, most of them civilians. In 2014, 93 people were killed, mostly soldiers amid a war in the Gaza Strip.The majority of this year’s fatalities occurred in attacks in the Tel Aviv area and nearby cities (12) and in the West Bank (9).In addition, four people were killed in an attack in the southern city of Beersheba, four were killed in separate attacks in Jerusalem, and two were killed in an attack in the northern city of Hadera.According to Shin Bet data, more than 129 people have been wounded in attacks this year.Many of the attackers hailed from the Jenin and Nablus areas in the northern West Bank, where the Israel Defense Forces has focused much of its counterterrorism efforts.Meanwhile, the Palestinian Authority Health Ministry has so far reported 167 Palestinian deaths as a result of Israeli gunfire in the West Bank this year, making it the deadliest since 2006, when 220 Palestinians were reported killed in the West BankThe Israel Defense Forces, which has put this year’s number slightly lower at 151, says the overwhelming majority of those killed were carrying out attacks or had clashed with security forces.Palestinian gunmen take aim during an Israeli military operation in the West Bank city of Jenin, May 13, 2022. (AP Photo/Majdi Mohammed)Security officials say the high Palestinian death toll is largely tied to violent clashes and the string of terror attacks, in which many of the assailants were also killed.In recent months, Palestinian gunmen have repeatedly targeted military posts, troops operating along the West Bank security barrier, Israeli settlements, and civilians on the roads.The IDF has recorded around 300 shooting attacks against Israeli civilians and soldiers in the West Bank this year, compared to just 91 last year. Many of those shootings occurred almost immediately as troops entered Palestinian cities to arrest suspects allegedly involved in terror activities.Several bystanders have been killed amid the gun battles too, such as Al Jazeera reporter Shireen Abu Akleh, who was accidentally shot dead by an Israeli soldier during a raid in Jenin in May.On Sunday night, a 16-year-old girl, Jana Zakarna, was apparently shot dead by an Israeli soldier as she was on a rooftop in Jenin, amid an armed clash between troops and Palestinian gunmen.In the cases of Abu Akleh, Zakarna, and Omar Assad — a Palestinian who had a heart attack and died after being arrested and later abandoned by troops — Israeli officials and even the army have apologized for their deaths.Israeli troops operate in the West Bank, early December 4, 2022. (Israel Defense Forces)-But there have also been Palestinians killed in murkier circumstances, such as Ammar Shafiq Abu Afifa, an unarmed 19-year-old student who was shot dead after running away from troops who sought to question him. The IDF did not say he sought to commit an attack or was otherwise wanted for questioning.There have also been several killings under disputed circumstances this year, with the IDF initially saying a suspect sought to commit an attack, and Palestinian eyewitnesses disputing and claiming otherwise.In some of the cases, the army has dropped the initial claims and quietly released suspects related to alleged attempted attacks, such as in the death of 15-year-old Fulla Maslama in November.The teenager was shot dead while in a car driven by a Palestinian man, Annes Hassuna. The military said at the time that the car Maslama was in had accelerated toward troops. But the driver, wounded by the IDF’s gunfire, was released from custody a few days later.Israeli soldiers are rarely convicted for shootings that take place under disputed circumstances.The IDF’s ongoing operation, meanwhile, has netted more than 2,500 arrests, and foiled around 500 potential terror attacks, military officials have said.

North Korean cyber spies deploy new tactic: tricking foreign experts into writing research for them-Josh Smith-Mon, December 12, 2022 at 3:00 AM

SEOUL (Reuters) -When Daniel DePetris, a U.S.-based foreign affairs analyst, received an email in October from the director of the 38 North think-tank commissioning an article, it seemed to be business as usual.It wasn't.The sender was actually a suspected North Korean spy seeking information, according to those involved and three cybersecurity researchers.Instead of infecting his computer and stealing sensitive data, as hackers typically do, the sender appeared to be trying to elicit his thoughts on North Korean security issues by pretending to be 38 North director Jenny Town."I realized it wasn't legit once I contacted the person with follow up questions and found out there was, in fact, no request that was made, and that this person was also a target," DePetris told Reuters, referring to Town. "So I figured out pretty quickly this was a widespread campaign."The email is part of a new and previously unreported campaign by a suspected North Korean hacking group, according to the cybersecurity experts, five targeted individuals and emails reviewed by Reuters.The cybersecurity experts suspect the hackers are targeting people who are influential in foreign governments to better understand where Western policy is headed on North Korea.The hacking group, which researchers dubbed Thallium or Kimsuky, among other names, has long used “spear-phishing” emails that trick targets into giving up passwords or clicking attachments or links that load malware. Now, however, it also appears to simply ask researchers or other experts to offer opinions or write reports.According to emails reviewed by Reuters, among the other issues raised were China’s reaction in the event of a new nuclear test; and whether a "quieter" approach to North Korean "aggression" might be warranted."The attackers are having a ton of success with this very, very simple method," said James Elliott of the Microsoft Threat Intelligence Center (MSTIC), who added that the new tactic first emerged in January. "The attackers have completely changed the process."MSTIC said it had identified "multiple" North Korea experts who have provided information to a Thallium attacker account.A 2020 report by U.S. government cybersecurity agencies said Thallium has been operating since 2012 and "is most likely tasked by the North Korean regime with a global intelligence gathering mission."Thallium has historically targeted government employees, think tanks, academics, and human rights organisations, according to Microsoft."The attackers are getting the information directly from the horse's mouth, if you will, and they don't have to sit there and make interpretations because they're getting it directly from the expert," Elliott said.NEW TACTICS-North Korean hackers are well-known for attacks netting millions of dollars, targeting Sony Pictures over a film seen as insulting to its leader, and stealing data from pharmaceutical and defence companies, foreign governments, and others.North Korea's embassy in London did not respond to a request for comment, but it has denied being involved in cyber crime.In other attacks, Thallium and other hackers have spent weeks or months developing trust with a target before sending malicious software, said Saher Naumaan, principal threat intelligence analyst at BAE Systems Applied Intelligence.But according to Microsoft, the group now also engages with experts in some cases without ever sending malicious files or links even after the victims respond.This tactic can be quicker than hacking someone's account and wading through their emails, bypasses traditional technical security programmes that would scan and flag a message with malicious elements, and allows the spies direct access to the experts' thinking, Elliott said."For us as defenders, it's really, really hard to stop these emails," he said, adding that in most cases it comes down to the recipient being able to figure it out.Town said some messages purporting to be from her had used an email address that ended in ".live" rather than her official account, which ends in ".org", but had copied her full signature line.In one case, she said, she was involved in a surreal email exchange in which the suspected attacker, posing as her, included her in a reply.DePetris, a fellow with Defense Priorities and a columnist for several newspapers, said the emails he has received were written as if a researcher were asking for a paper submission or comments on a draft."They were quite sophisticated, with think tank logos attached to the correspondence to make it look as if the inquiry is legitimate," he said.About three weeks after receiving the faked email from 38 North, a separate hacker impersonated him, emailing other people to look at a draft, DePetris said.That email, which DePetris shared with Reuters, offers $300 for reviewing a manuscript about North Korea's nuclear programme and asks for recommendations for other possible reviewers. Elliot said the hackers never paid anyone for their research or responses, and would never intend to.GATHERING INFORMATION-Impersonation is a common method for spies around the world, but as North Korea's isolation has deepened under sanctions and the pandemic, Western intelligence agencies believe Pyongyang has become particularly reliant on cyber campaigns, one security source in Seoul told Reuters, speaking on condition of anonymity to discuss intelligence matters.In a March 2022 report, a panel of experts that investigates North Korea's U.N. sanctions evasions listed Thallium's efforts as among activities that "constitute espionage intended to inform and assist" the country's sanctions avoidance.Town said in some cases, the attackers have commissioned papers, and analysts had provided full reports or manuscript reviews before realising what had happened.DePetris said the hackers asked him about issues he was already working on, including Japan's response to North Korea's military activities.Another email, purporting to be a reporter from Japan's Kyodo News, asked a 38 North staffer how they thought the war in Ukraine factored in North Korea's thinking, and posed questions about U.S., Chinese, and Russian policies."One can only surmise that the North Koreans are trying to get candid views from think tankers in order to better understand U.S. policy on the North and where it may be going," DePetris said.(Reporting by Josh Smith.

PARIS — Ukraine’s Prime Minister Denys Shmygal said Tuesday that the UN nuclear watchdog IAEA agreed to dispatch permanent teams to the country’s nuclear plants, including the Russian-controlled Zaporizhzhia plant.Ukraine’s atomic sites have been a key concern throughout the nearly 10 months since Russia invaded, with attacks around several plants — including Chernobyl — raising fears of a nuclear incident.“The missions are aimed at securing the plants and recording all attempts to externally influence them, in particular shelling by the Russian aggressor,” Shmygal said following a meeting in Paris with Rafael Grossi, the head of the International Atomic Energy Agency.The prime minister, who was participating in an international conference on Ukraine, said the IAEA teams would deploy to plants at Zaporizhzhia, Rivne, Khmelnytskyi, Pivdennoukrainska and Chernobyl without specifying a time frame.He also said he had repeated to Grossi Ukraine’s demand for the “demilitarization” of the Zaporizhzhia plant, describing it as a priority for Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky.After the summit, Shmygal praised French President Emmanuel Macron for supporting Ukraine on issues including nuclear security and pulling military from around the Zaporizhzhia plant — Europe’s largest.“France is very active on this issue,” he said.The IAEA has already deployed teams to Zaporizhzhia, where Russian troops have seized control of the plant and claimed to have annexed the region into Russia.“The plant is still in a very precarious situation,” Grossi said ahead of the meeting.“We have started to explore ways to deepen this protection and above all to reach an agreement which will have to involve the Russian side, obviously, to protect the plant,” Grossi said.Ukraine last week accused Russian troops of detaining two senior employees at the Zaporizhzhia plant after a “brutal beating.”Regular Russian shelling in recent months of Ukraine’s energy grid has disrupted the supply of power to and from the plants, adding to electricity outages and concerns over their safety.
