PEOPLE GOT POLIO FROM THE POLIO VACCINE SHOT.
How The Oral Polio Vaccine Can Cause Polio-November 16, 2019-8:02 AM ET
One of the vaccines used to prevent polio has actually been causing some people to get the disease.SCOTT SIMON, HOST:Just last month, the World Health Organization announced that two of three strains of polio had been eradicated. It's been one of the great success stories of modern medicine. The disease, which, of course, can lead to paralysis, has been reduced to just a handful of cases around the world. But now scientists say there's been a troubling setback. One of the vaccines used to prevent polio has actually been causing some people to get polio.NPR's Jason Beaubien joins us now. Jason, thanks for being with us.JASON BEAUBIEN, BYLINE: Hey. Good morning.SIMON: I understand the problem begins with what's called a live vaccine, which has little bits of weakened polio virus in it, given to children around the world. What seems to have gone wrong?BEAUBIEN: Yeah, that is the crux of it - that this - the oral polio vaccine that's used primarily in low- and middle-income countries - it's been the workhorse of this global effort to eradicate polio. But it is a live vaccine. It's cheap. It's easy to administer.However, this live vaccine is continued to be used worldwide. And while you're doing that, some of that vaccine has gotten out into the world. And it's mutated. It starts circulating again, just like regular polio. But early on, it's just - it's still a vaccine. It's not dangerous. And then slowly, it sort of regains strength. And they're finding they can actually genetically see this - that scientists can actually trace it back directly to the vaccine. And now these vaccine-linked cases are actually causing more cases of paralysis each year than actual traditional - what scientists call wild polio.SIMON: Now, we should underscore, Jason, this is not the version of the vaccine that's given to youngsters in the United States.BEAUBIEN: Yeah.SIMON: Why are other countries still using it? BEAUBIEN: Right. So in the United States and in Europe and other countries like that, it - we're using an injectable vaccine, which is a dead vaccine. It is not a live virus, and it cannot cause polio. So that should not at all be a concern. The issue, however, is that it's an injection that has to be given. It's given four times between the ages of 2 months and 7 years. So just administering it is difficult.And just frankly, there is not enough global stockpile of that vaccine to vaccinate all of the children around the world, you know, four times over the course of their childhood. So there's some real problems with that. That, ultimately, would be the goal - is to eventually get to the point where you're not using oral polio vaccine, but it's not logistically possible at this point.SIMON: You learned this week the Centers for Disease Control takes this problem so seriously they're actually sending dozens of experts to these countries affected. What do they plan to do? BEAUBIEN: Yeah. They're calling it the surge. And they're going to be deploying between 75 and 100 extra staff from the CDC out primarily into Africa to try to just address these vaccine-derived outbreaks and just clamp them down as soon as they can because the idea is that if you can stop them then you will stop that virus from continuing to spread and really try to strengthen these systems so that they can get control of this and hopefully, you know, get rid of this other source of polio at a time when they're tantalizingly close to actually wiping out the disease.SIMON: NPR's Jason Beaubien, thanks so much.BEAUBIEN: You're welcome.
The Cutter Incident: How America's First Polio Vaccine Led to a Growing Vaccine Crisis-Reviewed by Michael Fitzpatrick
In April 1955 more than 200 000 children in five Western and mid-Western USA states received a polio vaccine in which the process of inactivating the live virus proved to be defective. Within days there were reports of paralysis and within a month the first mass vaccination programme against polio had to be abandoned. Subsequent investigations revealed that the vaccine, manufactured by the California-based family firm of Cutter Laboratories, had caused 40 000 cases of polio, leaving 200 children with varying degrees of paralysis and killing 10.Paul Offit, paediatrician and prominent advocate of vaccination, sets the `Cutter incident' in the context of the struggle of medical science against polio and other infectious diseases over the course of the 20th century. He reminds us that, within a decade of Karl Landsteiner's identification of the polio virus in 1908, an epidemic in New York killed 2400 people (mostly children) and left thousands more with a life-long disability. In the 1950s, summer outbreaks in the USA caused tens of thousands of cases, leaving hundreds paralysed or dead. `Second only to the atomic bomb', polio was `the thing that Americans feared the most'.Offit provides a gripping account of how the `March of Dimes', inspired in part by President Franklin D Roosevelt's personal experience of polio, raised funds for research and focused national attention on the disease. He profiles leading figures, notably Jonas Salk and Albert Sabin —brilliant, egotistical and flawed characters—pioneers in vaccine development and as scientific celebrities, and notorious for their bitter personal rivalry.Offit offers a balanced judgement on both the Cutter incident and on the Salk and Sabin vaccines. Reviewing failures in the manufacturing and inspection processes, he exonerates Salk from blame and concludes that `the federal government, through its vaccine regulatory agency... was in the best position to avoid the Cutter tragedy'. Three larger companies produced safe polio vaccines according to Salk's protocol for inactivating the virus with formaldehyde. The lack of experience and expertise at Cutter Laboratories, undetected by the inspectors, caused the disaster.While acknowledging Salk's mean-spiritedness towards colleagues, Offit believes that in denying him a Nobel prize, history has dealt harshly with a man who was `the first to do many things' that have contributed to the virtual eradication of polio in the USA. The Cutter incident led to the replacement of Salk's formaldehyde-treated vaccine with Sabin's attenuated strain. Though Sabin's vaccine had the advantages of being administered orally and of fostering wider `contact immunity', it could also be re-activated by passage through the gut, resulting in occasional cases of polio (still causing paralysis in six to eight children every year in the 1980s and 1990s, when a modified Salk vaccine was re-introduced). As Offit observes, `ironically, the Cutter incident—by creating the perception among scientists and the public that Salk's vaccine was dangerous —led in part to the development of a polio vaccine that was more dangerous'.The Cutter incident had an ambivalent legacy. On the one hand, it led to the effective federal regulation of vaccines, which today enjoy a record of safety `unmatched by any other medical product'. On the other hand, the court ruling that Cutter was liable to pay compensation to those damaged by its polio vaccine—even though it was not found to be negligent in its production—opened the floodgates to a wave of litigation. As a result, `vaccines were among the first medical products almost eliminated by lawsuits'. Indeed, the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program was introduced in 1986 to protect vaccine manufacturers from litigation on a scale that threatened the continuing production of vaccines. Still, many companies have opted out of this low-profit, high-risk field, leaving only a handful of firms to meet a growing demand (resulting in recent shortages of flu and other vaccines).The contemporary climate of risk aversion and predatory litigation deters the introduction of new vaccines and discourages innovation in a field which boasts some of the most impressive achievements of modern medicine. To protect vaccine development—and ultimately public health —Offit proposes that the option of suing vaccine manufacturers should be stopped and that compensation should only be available through the official programme.Notes-Paul A Offit Pages 240pp Price $27.50 ISBN 0-300-10864-8 New Haven/London: Yale University Press

Hypocritical’: Ben & Jerry’s sued over child labor, after attempted Israel boycott-Class action lawsuit alleges ice cream maker misled consumers about ethical commitments after report reveals underage workers in supply chain; company’s anti-Israel board stays mum-By Luke Tress-20 March 2023, 9:56 pm
NEW YORK — Ben & Jerry’s has been hit with a class action lawsuit and charges of hypocrisy for the use of child labor in its supply chain, despite the ice cream maker’s declared commitment to social justice causes, an image it holds up as a key part of its branding.The company’s involvement with child labor came to light shortly after it settled a high-profile legal battle with its parent firm over an attempted boycott against Israel, which Israel supporters viewed as prejudiced. The Ben & Jerry’s board responsible for the boycott has stayed mum about the labor issue, while its leader has continued to take shots at Israel.The Vermont-based company claimed in recent filings that it did not use child labor in its supply chain and has avoided divulging when it found out about the matter.The labor issue surfaced publicly in a New York Times investigation late last month. The report revealed that American corporations and their suppliers use underage migrant laborers for dangerous and grueling factory jobs, including in dairy facilities that supply Ben & Jerry’s.Many of the children fled destitution in Central America, arrived in the US as unaccompanied minors, and were then exploited for labor. They work to pay off debts to smugglers, send cash to their families back home, and pay for living costs. The jobs keep many of them out of school. The US Department of Labor said it would take action to rein in illegal child migrant labor in response to the report.The injury rate for dairy facilities is twice the national average compared to all industries, said the report, which included testimony from a boy who crushed his hand in an industrial milking machine in Vermont.The state’s labor laws allow anyone over 16 to do any work in agriculture, and bar those under that age from doing any hazardous jobs. There is no evidence that Ben & Jerry’s, or its suppliers, violated labor laws.A Ben & Jerry’s representative appeared to acknowledge the issue to the New York Times, saying the company cooperated with labor groups to monitor working conditions at its suppliers and claiming that if migrant children needed to work full time, it was better for them to work at a well-monitored workplace.In response to the report, a plaintiff filed a federal class action lawsuit against Ben & Jerry’s in a New York court, claiming the company had misrepresented its ethical commitments to consumers.The case argues that Ben & Jerry’s charges a premium for its products, partly based on its image as a socially conscious company, and that consumers would not have bought from the company, or paid as much, if they had been aware of its suppliers’ use of child labor. The plaintiff, Dovid Tyrnauer, sought damages and other commitments from Ben & Jerry’s for breach of trust.During the legal proceedings involving the company’s attempted boycott, Ben & Jerry’s repeatedly argued, including in the same New York court where the class action lawsuit was filed, that its conscientious image was a core part of its business strategy and financial success.“While Ben & Jerry’s purports to use ethical supply chains and professes concern about farmworker welfare, the reality could not be further from the truth. Migrant child labor is used in Ben & Jerry’s supply chains,” the lawsuit claimed. “Ben & Jerry’s wishes to have its ice cream and eat it too. It wishes to sell premium priced products with pompous virtue-signaling representations regarding its supposedly ethical sourcing, all the while migrant child labor is used in its supply chains. Put simply, this is a case about greed run amok.”Ben & Jerry’s ice cream on sale at a shop in Jerusalem, on July 19, 2021. (Yonatan Sindel/ Flash90)“The premiums that consumers pay for allegedly ethically-sourced products, in this instance, are not justified and constitute a breach of consumer trust through the misrepresentations,” the lawsuit said.The lawyers for the plaintiff did not respond to a request for comment, and Ben & Jerry’s did not yet have legal representation listed in the case.After the New York Times report, Ben & Jerry’s issued a statement opposing child labor and highlighting the company’s ethical commitments and ties with workers’ rights groups. The statement did not deny the use of child labor by the company’s suppliers, or that Ben & Jerry’s was aware of the issue.“We are deeply concerned by the claims made in this story, and do not tolerate any suppliers who are not adhering to the law. Let us be extremely clear: Ben & Jerry’s stands in strong opposition to child labor,” the statement said.Contacted for comment about the class action lawsuit, Ben & Jerry’s referred The Times of Israel to the previous statement, and did not answer specific questions, including about when the company became aware of child workers in its supply chain.The company’s prior knowledge of the issue is significant because it certified in filings submitted in January that its suppliers did not use child labor. The disclosure was for the company’s registration as a B Corporation, a private certification that verifies a company’s “high standards of social and environmental performance.” Ben & Jerry’s also said in 2017 filings that its employee handbook barred the use of child labor.The Ben & Jerry’s independent board tasked with protecting the company’s “social mission,” which decided to boycott Israeli settlements, has not commented on the child labor issue. A company spokesperson said the statement responding to the New York Times investigation was not attributable to the board.The board’s chair, Anuradha Mittal, has not publicly commented, but has repeatedly shared anti-Israel content on Twitter since the child labor issue came to light. Mittal has a pro-intifada poster on her office wall.Alyza Lewin, a lawyer for Ben & Jerry’s Israel in its lawsuit against the boycott, said the child labor allegations had exposed the company’s double-standard when it comes to Israel.“This information that’s now come out about the immigrant child workers does kind of confirm the hypocrisy of the whole episode with Israel,” Lewin said. “What you had was a board that caved to BDS pressure and it was never about trying to help Palestinians.”“If you’re going to go out there and claim that you’re all about social justice, then where is your voice now when it comes to these poor children?” Lewin said.The head of Ben & Jerry’s Israel, Avi Zinger, who waged a successful legal battle against the boycott, has said the move hurt Palestinians, including employees, consumers, and his West Bank business partner.The Ben & Jerry’s board announced its decision to boycott “occupied Palestinian territory” in July 2021, following Israel’s war that year with Gaza-based terrorists and after a heavy social media campaign against the company. Israeli laws bar discrimination against citizens based on where they live, meaning a boycott of settlements would amount to a ban on selling anywhere in Israel.The decision set off a convoluted legal battle and heavy repercussions for Unilever, the Ben & Jerry’s parent company, as US states enacted anti-BDS divestment laws, pulling hundreds of millions of dollars in investments from the UK conglomerate.The ice cream maker’s decision to boycott “occupied territory” sparked uproar in Israel and among some US Jewish groups. Critics of the boycott argued it was antisemitic because the company has never attempted to boycott any other region of the world.Supporters of the boycott Israel movement say that in urging businesses, artists, and universities to sever ties with Israel, they are using nonviolent means to oppose unjust policies toward Palestinians. Israel says the movement masks its motives to delegitimize and destroy the Jewish state.Zinger and Ben & Jerry’s Israel refused to comply with the settlement boycott, arguing it was illegal under Israeli and US law. Their license to sell the ice cream was only set to expire at the end of 2022, meaning the boycott never went into effect.Ben & Jerry’s Israel sued Unilever over the dispute in the US, claiming Unilever unlawfully terminated their business contract. Months later, Unilever settled with Ben & Jerry’s Israel, granting the Israeli branch independence to sell its products indefinitely in Israel and the West Bank, using Hebrew and Arabic branding. Under the agreement, Ben & Jerry’s has no authority over the Israeli franchise.Unilever has said the board had announced the settlement boycott without consulting with the parent company.Shortly after that agreement was announced, Ben & Jerry’s sought to block the deal by suing Conopco, the main US branch of Unilever, arguing that Unilever had breached its acquisition deal with Ben & Jerry’s. The unusual 2000 merger agreement gave the ice cream maker’s board the authority to protect the company’s “social mission.” The lawsuit marked an unprecedented legal dispute between a major company and its parent corporation.Unilever said it had resolved its dispute with Ben & Jerry’s in December without specifying the terms of the agreement. The case had appeared to be going against Ben & Jerry’s before the deal was announced.Zinger said he was “pleased” the litigation had been resolved, and Ben & Jerry’s and its board did not comment.The Jewish founders of Ben & Jerry’s, who no longer run the company, have said Unilever “usurped their authority” by spinning off the Israel branch.The case has illustrated the pitfalls of progressive corporate activism, the risks for companies attempting to boycott Israel and the growing role of corporate investing in the Israeli-Palestinian dispute in the US.
Trump hush-money grand jury proceedings 'canceled' for Wednesday, sources say-Grand jury proceedings canceled amid ‘major dissension’ in DA's office, sources tell Fox News-By Brooke Singman , Marta Dhanis , Chris Pandolfo | Fox News
Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's office has "canceled" the grand jury meeting that was scheduled to take place Wednesday as part of the investigation into former President Trump, amid speculation of a possible indictment, two sources familiar told Fox News. The grand jury was slated to meet Wednesday and was expected to hear from at least one additional witness, but Fox News has learned that Bragg's office "canceled" the proceedings. Former U.S. President Donald Trump may be indicted by the Manhattan District Attorney's office on charges related to the Stormy Daniels scandal.The grand jury was notified Wednesday morning, and was placed "on standby" for Thursday, a source told Fox News. "We can’t confirm or comment on Grand Jury matters," Bragg's office told Fox News. Two sources familiar told Fox News Digital on Wednesday that the grand jury was canceled amid "major dissension" within the district attorney's office. One source claimed the district attorney is having trouble convincing the grand jury on potential charges due to the "weakness" of the case.Despite rumors of a potential imminent indictment, sources familiar told Fox News Digital that Trump has not been formally notified about whether Bragg actually plans to bring charges against him. Sources told Fox News, though, that there remains a real chance that Bragg does not choose to indict the former president.Bragg, when he took over as district attorney in January 2022, stopped pursuing charges against Trump and suspended the investigation "indefinitely," according to one of the top prosecutors who resigned from the office in protest. Prosecutors Mark Pomerantz and Carey Dunne, who had been leading the investigation under former DA Cyrus Vance, submitted their resignations after Bragg began raising doubts about pursuing a case against Trump.The possible charges stem from the $130,000 hush-money payment that then-Trump lawyer Michael Cohen made to adult film star Stormy Daniels, whose legal name is Stephanie Clifford, in the weeks leading up to the 2016 presidential election in exchange for her silence about an alleged sexual encounter with Trump in 2006.Stormy Daniels is not one of the last witnesses that the Bragg planned to call. Her lawyer tells Fox News that, as we stand, Daniels has been asked to speak before the grand jury. "In our conversations [with Bragg's office], there's been no definitive plan to be in New York to testify before the grand jury as it sits", Clark Brewster said. Federal prosecutors in the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York opted out of charging Trump related to the Stormy Daniels payment in 2019, even as Cohen implicated him as part of his plea deal. The Federal Election Commission also tossed its investigation into the matter in 2021.Cohen has said Trump directed the payments. Cohen paid Daniels $130,000 through his own company and was later reimbursed by Trump's company, which logged the payments as "legal expenses." Karen McDougal, a former Playboy model who allegedly had a relationship with Trump, received a $150,000 payment through the publisher of the supermarket tabloid National Enquirer.The Trump Organization "grossed up" Cohen’s reimbursement for Daniels' payment for "tax purposes," according to federal prosecutors who filed the 2018 criminal charges against Cohen for the payments.Trump has repeatedly denied wrongdoing with regard to the payments made to Daniels, and he has repeatedly said the payments were "not a campaign violation" but rather a "simple private transaction."Robert Costello, a former legal adviser to Cohen, appeared before the grand jury Monday and testified that Cohen is a "serial liar."Costello testified before the grand jury for more than two hours Monday. Costello said he testified that Trump did not know about the payments made by Cohen to Stormy Daniels.The Manhattan DA’s investigation into Trump began in 2019 by then-District Attorney Cyrus Vance. The probe was focused on possible bank, insurance and tax fraud. The case initially involved financial dealings of Trump’s Manhattan properties, including his flagship Fifth Avenue building, Trump Tower, and the valuation of his 213-acre estate Seven Springs in Westchester.The investigation last year led to tax fraud charges against the Trump Organization and its finance chief, Allen Weisselberg.Grand jury deliberations and votes are secret proceedings, and an indictment typically remains under seal until an arraignment.
The sudden turn of events that could derail Trump's indictment-Manhattan DA Bragg is determined to snooker a grand jury into indicting Trump-By Gregg Jarrett | Fox News
"Show me the man and I’ll show you the crime," was the infamous boast of Joseph Stalin’s ruthless secret police chief, Lavrentiy Beria. His modus operandi was to target any man the Soviet dictator chose and then find or fabricate a crime against him.Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg has taken a page out of Stalin’s playbook and targeted Donald Trump. Driven by personal and political animus, the DA presumed the former president must be guilty of something. It was just a matter of devoting enough time and resources to hunt down the crime. Failing to find one, Bragg copied Beria’s paradigm and simply dreamed one up.As I explained in my last column, the DA invented his case against Trump by taking an alleged misdemeanor business records violation and supercharging it into a felony by citing an imagined second crime arising out of a supposed campaign finance violation. The novelty of such a charge is exceeded only by its absurdity. The indictment appears to hinge on the DA’s argument that a 2016 payment made to porn star Stormy Daniels was intended to help Trump’s presidential bid and should have been accounted for as a campaign contribution, not legal fees, when he reimbursed his then-lawyer, Michael Cohen, who paid Daniels to keep her mouth shut about a purported 2006 affair that Trump vigorously denies. Confused yet? You should be. The flaw in Bragg’s tortured logic is two-fold. First, non-disclosure agreements in exchange for money are perfectly legal. Second, Cohen long ago stated that the payment had nothing to do with the campaign but was made to protect Melania Trump from an embarrassing, albeit false, accusation. As such, it is not an illegal campaign donation under the law. Hence there is no crime.It appears that Bragg’s star witness is none other than Cohen who has performed an astonishing pirouette by recanting his earlier statements. He now claims that the money was intended to help Trump’s campaign fend off a damaging story. Reliance on such a disreputable character as Cohen is a clear sign of the DA’s desperation. Cohen's hatred of Trump is well known. He has carved out a career of trashing his former boss.Cohen has always had a warped relationship with the truth. He peddled so many lies that there is no way to know whether the disgraced and disbarred lawyer even understands the concept of honesty. Among the smorgasbord of crimes that sent him to prison was lying to Congress.In a sudden turn of events, Cohen’s former attorney Robert Costello — no longer bound by the attorney-client privilege that was waived by his ex-client — testified before the grand jury on Monday. According to Costello, in April 2018, Cohen repeatedly stated that the Daniels payment was intended to protect the candidate’s wife, not the campaign. Moreover, Cohen insisted that he acted all on his own and not at the behest of Trump. While testifying for over two hours, Costello said he realized that Bragg had been hiding from the grand jury nearly all of the files he had previously turned over to the DA that corroborated Cohen’s original story.Concealing exculpatory evidence from a grand jury is reprehensible conduct. But the overarching question is this: Was Cohen lying at the outset of the investigation or is he lying now? I doubt even he knows. Inveterate liars tend to lose track of their lies.Bragg’s determination to snooker a grand jury into indicting Trump is an egregious abuse of government authority. It constitutes the weaponization of the law for political gain. But it is also — and importantly — selective prosecution of the worst kind.Consider the case of Hillary Clinton, who secretly funded the anti-Trump dossier in 2016 by deploying campaign lawyers to pay ex-British spy Christopher Steele more than $1 million dollars to compose his phony document. Candidate Clinton listed it as a "legal expense," even though its sole purpose was to advance her campaign against Trump, her opponent. The Federal Election Commission fined Clinton for brazenly violating campaign finance laws. But New York prosecutors never even thought about bringing criminal charges because it involved, well… Hillary. She has consistently been the beneficiary of a dual system of justice that grants her a permanent "get out of jail free" card for whatever crooked scheme she concocts. She was never prosecuted for obvious crimes under the Espionage Act by storing classified records in her home on a personal server. She also destroyed more than 30-thousand documents under congressional subpoena, but no obstruction of justice indictment was ever rendered.Juxtapose the treatment of Donald Trump. The Manhattan district attorney’s office has devoted unlimited resources over many years scouring every aspect of the former president’s personal life and business affairs in a purely partisan quest to find a crime — any crime. They did it because they could, with no compunction over the code of ethics that binds lawyers. Despite the objections of senior experienced prosecutors, the district attorney conjured up a convoluted legal theory to slay his political hobgoblin. It has all the earmarks of a Stalin-like fabrication.Much of the current witch hunt was driven and directed by former assistant DA Mark Pomerantz, an outsider who was hired for the sole purpose of "getting Trump." When Bragg initially balked at bringing charges, Pomerantz quit in a fit of pique but not before blasting his former boss in a resignation screed conveniently made public.He then ratcheted up the pressure on Bragg by penning a disgraceful tell-all book. In it, Pomerantz arrogantly laid bare his contempt of Trump because "he posed a real danger to the country and to the ideals that mattered to me." That confessional exposed the underlying rationale for charging Trump. The district attorney soon caved and fully embraced the loony legal theory promoted by Pomerantz.Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg speaks at a press conference after Steve Bannon, former adviser to former President Donald Trump, surrendered at the NY District Attorney's office to face charges in New York City on Sept. 8, 2022.Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg speaks at a press conference after Steve Bannon, former adviser to former President Donald Trump, surrendered at the NY District Attorney's office to face charges in New York City on Sept. 8, 2022. (David Dee Delgado/Getty Images)Disagreeing with someone’s political views or harboring personal animosity is not a basis for criminal prosecution. Indeed, it is a serious breach of legal ethics. It is the duty of a prosecutor to see that justice is done, not to target an individual and contort the law to bring a feckless case against him. Pomerantz should face disbarment for his unconscionable conduct.The district attorney’s prejudicial pursuit of Trump undermines the vital concept that the administration of justice will be fair and equitable. He has forsaken the presumption of innocence embodied in the 5th, 6th, and 14th Amendments to our Constitution. When it comes to Trump, the DA only operates on the presumption of guilt.Alvin Bragg has chosen to criminalize politics with the zeal of the notorious Lavrentiy Beria. In the process, he has badly damaged the public’s trust and sullied the sacred principle of equal justice under the law.

'The sin of the disengagement will be reversed'Then we retake Gaza: Hardline minister hails repeal of West Bank Disengagement-Orit Strock says eventual return to the Strip ‘will involve many casualties’ but it is part of the Land of Israel and must be resettled-By ToI Staff-MAR 22,23-Today, 9:14 am
A far-right minister in Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government said that a law repealing legislation that ordered the evacuation of four West Bank settlements was a step on the way to re-occupying and resettling the Gaza Strip, a move that she acknowledged would cause “many casualties.”The law, which won some support from opposition members including National Unity’s Gideon Sa’ar and Ze’ev Elkin, repeals the clauses of the Disengagement Law that banned Israelis from the area where the settlements of Homesh, Ganim, Kadim and Sa-Nur once stood, paving the way for settlers to return. The four communities were the only West Bank settlements to be cleared during the Disengagement from Gaza close to 18 years ago. The new law, passed in the early hours of Tuesday, applies to those areas only.“Our first step will be to legalize the Homesh Yeshiva and then we will gradually renew settlement [in the area],” said Minister of National Missions Orit Strock, hailing the new legislation in a Tuesday interview with the right-wing Israel National News outlet. The next step, she predicted, will be a return to the Gaza Strip.“I believe that, at the end of the day, the sin of the disengagement will be reversed,” Strock said. “I don’t know how long it will take. Sadly, a return to the Gaza Strip will involve many casualties, just as the departure from the Gaza Strip came with many casualties. But ultimately it is part of the Land of Israel, and a day will come when we will return to it.”In 2005, then-prime minister Ariel Sharon masterminded the unilateral evacuation of Jewish settlements in Gaza and handed the area over to Palestinian rule, ending 38 years of Israeli military control of the territory. The Hamas terror group has ruled Gaza since 2007 when it ousted the Palestinian Authority in a bloody coup.Since then Israel has fought several wars with Hamas and other Gaza-based terrorists in a bid to stop the tens of thousands of rockets that have been fired at Israel. Israeli incursions into Gaza have faced bitter resistance and more than 80 IDF soldiers have been killed.Hamas also holds the bodies of two Israeli soldiers killed in 2014, alongside two Israeli civilians who entered the Strip.Labor party leader Merav Michaeli slammed Strock’s comments.“This crazy behavior from Orit Strock and her promises to return Israel to the bloody quagmire of Gaza, just reiterates again and again that the greatest danger to Israel comes from extremist settlers,” Michaeli said Wednesday. “In order to fulfill their messianic fanaticism, their leadership is willing to waste the lives of our soldiers.”Unlike the Gaza Strip, which the IDF pulled out of entirely, the army remains deployed in many areas of the West Bank, including the sites of the evacuated settlements.The destroyed West Bank towns have become a symbol to settlement supporters of an injustice they have sought to undo, while to Palestinians the areas are another section of West Bank territory stripped from them.The repeal, approved in a first Knesset reading less than a week ago, will bolster the coalition’s efforts to legalize a wildcat outpost currently occupying the site of Homesh and a yeshiva that has been built there, which activists have tried repeatedly to reestablish since 2005.Repealing restrictions on Jewish entry was a required step toward legalizing the outpost. Homesh is built on private Palestinian land, according to a High Court ruling. The head of the IDF Central Command will still need to sign a military order allowing Israelis to return to those areas.The repealing of the disengagement law in the northern West Bank was met with fierce criticism from the international community, including from Israel’s closest ally, the United States.On Tuesday Israel’s ambassador to the US was summoned to the State Department for an unscheduled meeting in a rare move by the Biden administration aimed at escalating its protest against the Knesset’s passage of the law, a US official told The Times of Israel.A readout issued by the US after Ambassador Mike Herzog’s meeting with Deputy Secretary of State Wendy Sherman said the American official “conveyed US concern” regarding the aspects of the 2005 Disengagement Law that the Knesset voted to rescind, including the prohibition on establishing settlements in the northern West Bank.Hours earlier, State Department deputy spokesman Vedant Patel opened the daily press briefing with a lengthy statement condemning the Knesset vote revoking parts of the Disengagement Law, arguing that the move flew in the face of Israeli commitments to the US.Patel said the US is “extremely troubled” by the legislation, noting that Homesh, was built on private Palestinian land.The law “represents a clear contradiction of understandings the Israeli government made to the United States,” he continued, pointing to a letter then-prime minister Ariel Sharon sent to then-US president George W. Bush some 20 years ago in which the premier committed to evacuating the four northern West Bank settlements.The EU’s foreign policy arm released a statement calling for the Knesset to reverse the legislation, which it said was “counterproductive to deescalation efforts, and hampers the possibility to pursue confidence-building measures and create a political horizon for dialogue.”
After strong US rebuke, PM says no plan for ‘new’ settlements in northern West Bank-Statement from Netanyahu’s office comes as Israeli envoy is summoned over Knesset’s repeal of part of Disengagement Law; not clear if commitment applies to Homesh outpost
By Ash Obel-MAR 22,23-Today, 2:00 pm
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was forced to issue a clarification on Wednesday that his far-right government would not build any new settlements in the northern West Bank after the US heavily criticized legislation by the Knesset this week that allows resettlement of evacuated areas.A statement from Netanyahu’s office, issued after the US State Department summoned Israeli Ambassador Mike Herzog for clarifications on the repeal of part of the Disengagement Law, sought to portray the legislation as symbolically righting a historic injustice.“The decision of the Knesset to cancel parts of the Disengagement Law brings to an end discriminatory and humiliating legislation that prevented Jews from living in areas of the northern West Bank, which is part of our historic homeland,” the statement said.Israel's Judiciary: Reform or Ruin? However, the government has no intention of building new communities in these areas,” the statement said, noting that several members of the opposition had supported the law.The new legislation, which was passed early Tuesday morning, rolled back clauses of the 2005 Disengagement Law that banned Israelis from the area where the settlements of Homesh, Ganim, Kadim and Sa-Nur once stood.The destroyed towns have been a symbol to settlement supporters of an injustice they have sought to undo, while to Palestinians the areas are viewed as another section of West Bank territory stripped from them.The statement did not clarify whether the resettlement of West Bank communities evacuated in the 2005 disengagement, particularly Homesh, would come under the definition of “new” settlements.The repeal, approved in a first Knesset reading less than a week ago, will bolster the coalition’s efforts to legalize a wildcat outpost currently occupying the site of Homesh and a yeshiva that has been built there, which activists have repeatedly reestablished, while the army has razed it, since 2005.Repealing restrictions on Jewish entry was a required step toward legalizing the outpost. Homesh is built on private Palestinian land, according to a High Court ruling.The statement marks another case of Netanyahu being forced to restrain his pro-settlement hardline coalition partners in the face of mounting opposition to the government’s policies from Israel’s allies, particularly the US.The government’s decision to repeal parts of the Disengagement Law drew fierce criticism from the Biden administration, which took the rare step of summoning Herzog for an unscheduled meeting.A readout issued by the US after Herzog’s meeting with US Deputy Secretary of State Wendy Sherman said the American official “conveyed US concern” regarding the aspects of the 2005 Disengagement Law that the Knesset voted to rescind, including the prohibition on establishing settlements in the northern West Bank.The two diplomats also “discussed the importance of all parties refraining from actions or rhetoric that could further inflame tensions leading into the Ramadan, Passover, and Easter holidays,” the State Department said in an apparent reference to Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich’s claim earlier this week that the Palestinian people are an “invention” — a claim the US condemned separately on Monday. Earlier this month, Smotrich called to “wipe out” a Palestinian town in additional comments that drew US criticism. He later apologized.The Israeli embassy in Washington declined to comment on the meeting.While the State Department readout did not characterize Tuesday’s meeting as a formal summoning or dressing down of Herzog, a source familiar with the matter told The Times of Israel that this was effectively the reason for the sit-down.This marked the first time in over a decade that an Israeli envoy in Washington has faced such a summons, marking a further deterioration in relations between the Biden administration and the hardline Netanyahu government.Hours earlier, US State Department deputy spokesman Vedant Patel opened the daily press briefing with a lengthy statement condemning the Knesset vote revoking parts of the Disengagement Law, arguing that the move flew in the face of Israeli commitments made to the US during the Bush administration.Patel said the US was “extremely troubled” by the legislation, noting that one of the towns to which the law opens the door for potential resettlement was built on private Palestinian land.At a summit in Egypt on Sunday, the Israeli government committed to not advancing settlement plans for four months and not advancing the legalization of West Bank outposts for six months, as part of an agreement with the Palestinian Authority designed to reduce tensions ahead of the Ramadan and Passover period.A month prior, and just days before a similar summit in the Jordanian city of Aqaba, the panel responsible for authorizing settlement construction green-lit the largest-ever package of settlement homes — nearly 10,000.Jacob Magid contributed to this report.
‘I felt the hate’: German tourist mobbed by Palestinians says he feared for his life-Gerald Hetzel says he felt his car was being ‘hunted’ by group in Nablus; Palestinian Authority spokesman says crowd thought they were IDF soldiers, were ‘wary’ of ‘foreign’ car
By ToI Staff-19 March 2023, 7:53 pM
One of two German tourists attacked Saturday by a Palestinian mob while driving through Nablus told Hebrew media Sunday that he had genuinely feared for his life during the attack, saying the crowd was “full of hate.”The two tourists drove on Saturday through central Nablus, a city in the north of the West Bank, in a rented car with Israeli license plates when they came under attack.Gerald Hetzel, one of the tourists, told Israeli TV stations Kan and Channel 12 that he had visited Ramallah and Hebron on past trips to the region, and came to Nablus on recommendation from friends.“I’ve never encountered a situation like this. It was a very very dangerous situation, and we really thought they wanted to kill us,” he said.“Young men came from taxis around us … and started to knock on our windows, to scream at us in Arabic,” he said. “They were bringing stones and a traffic sign and throwing everything against the car. After one or two minutes they pulled out a knife and stabbed the wheels of the car, and also threatened my friend.“I didn’t understand what they wanted. We tried to tell them in English that we are tourists, and we are not Jewish Israelis, that we are there to visit and see the town, but they seemed to not understand it,” Hetzel said.“They continued coming after us and walking after our car. It felt like they were hunting the car,” he explained and said a PA police officer brought them over to the side.The crowd got “really big” and “really angry,” Hetzel said, adding that police officers tried to tell the crowd in Arabic to go away.“I really felt the hate from their eyes, and from the way they were acting. And they were throwing rocks, maybe double the size of my head,” Hetzel recalled.He said he hadn’t understood the scale of the security sensitivities: “I thought they were only targeting religious-looking Jews, not international tourists.”PA security forces were powerless to stop the crowd and instructed the tourists to drive away as fast as possible, Hetzel said.An Arab Israeli man then signaled the pair to follow him and led the way out of the city through smaller streets. After they escaped the city, the Arab Israeli gave the pair a ride, because their rental car was so damaged.“It doesn’t change my entire view on Israel. I think Israel is a very friendly country,” Hetzel said.“It definitely changes my view on the Palestinians and the Palestinian Authority areas in Judea and Samaria,” he said, using the biblical name for the West Bank, then recalled a past trip to Bethlehem where he met a group of three 16-year-old boys.“They told me if they meet a Jew on the street, they want to kill him, just like this. And I think it’s a big problem they have so much hate in their education,” Hetzel said.Meanwhile, a spokesman for the Palestinian Authority security services claimed Sunday that the attackers had feared the tourists had been Israeli forces, stressing they have “zero hostility” toward Germany.“A group of young men… hurled stones at a civilian car with Israeli license plates,” a local Palestinian security official said on condition of anonymity.Germany’s ambassador to Israel, Steffen Seibert, said on Twitter: “A mob attacking tourists because they don’t like their license plate is disgusting and cowardly.”Talal Dweikat, a spokesman for the Palestinian security forces, told AFP that “we clearly have zero hostility toward a country whose citizens visit our cities.”According to Dweikat, those involved were “wary” of a “foreign” car, fearing it was being used by undercover Israeli forces, who often operate in the West Bank.The spokesman said the tourists had been rescued by a Palestinian police officer who helped them exit the city center, while Seibert thanked “the Palestinian Israeli citizen who saved them.”Tensions between Israel and the Palestinians have been high for the past year, with the IDF conducting near-nightly raids in the West Bank amid a series of deadly Palestinian terror attacks. Those tensions have ramped up even further in recent weeks, which saw a cycle of deadly Israeli raids and Palestinian attacks, as well as an uptick in settler violence.The northern West Bank, and particularly the cities of Nablus and Jenin, have seen repeated deadly Israeli raids targeting Palestinian terrorists.Palestinian terror attacks in Israel and the West Bank in recent months have left 14 Israelis dead and several more seriously hurt.At least 85 Palestinians have been killed since the beginning of the year, most of them while carrying out attacks or during clashes with security forces, though some were uninvolved civilians and others were killed under circumstances that are being investigated.Agencies contributed to this report.
In new poll, 63% of Israeli Jews call Diaspora coreligionists ‘brethren’The survey, conducted during protests over the government’s judicial overhaul, shows fraternity at a 6-year high-By Canaan Lidor-MAR 22,23-Today, 2:18 pm
More Israelis feel fraternity with Diaspora Jews now than they did five years ago, according to an annual survey on the subject.In the representative poll among 1,002 Jewish Israeli citizens aged 17-70, conducted in January and published Tuesday by the Diaspora Affairs Ministry, 63% of respondents said that they considered Diaspora Jews to be their brethren, compared to only 56% in a similar survey from 2016, when the ministry began its annual polling on the matter.The 2023 figure for the fraternity question is the highest of all six polls conducted by the ministry. In the new poll, which has a 3.2% margin of error, 69% of respondents said that they had a shared fate with Diaspora Jews, compared to only 61% in 2016.Israel's Judiciary: Reform or Ruin? The “2023 Survey to Monitor the Index of the Public’s Positions on Israel-Diaspora Ties” poll was conducted amid a polarizing debate on Israel’s judicial overhaul, which seeks to transfer some of the judiciary’s powers to the legislative branch. The Jewish Federations of North America, the umbrella organization representing 146 Jewish federations and 300 independent Jewish communities, are among the many Jewish-American groups that have voiced their opposition to the overhaul or parts of it.The poll also addresses Israelis’ attitudes toward their own Jewish identity irrespective of Diaspora Jews.Twenty-nine percent of this year’s respondents said they felt more Jewish than Israeli, the highest endorsement of the statement since 2016, when only 24% agreed. The share of respondents who feel more Israeli than Jewish is at its lowest point since 2016: 18% this year compared to 21% in the first poll in the series.Assimilation by Diaspora Jews is cause for concern for 53% of respondents in 2023, compared to only 48% in 2016.Diaspora Affairs Minister Amichai Chikli, whose office published the survey on its annual Diaspora Week to strengthen ties between Israel and non-Israeli Jews, said in a statement about the poll: “The Jewish People faces two combined challenges: The weakening of Jewish identity and an assault on the collective Jewish-Zionist one.”The statement urged, “The State of Israel must rise to the occasion and strengthen the infrastructure of Jewish education worldwide and in Israel to ensure a new generation is connected to its people’s heritage and committed to its future.”
Amman’s parliament displays Israel with Palestine-Jordan flag, calls to expel envoy-Hitting back at Smotrich’s use of map of ‘Greater Israel’ that includes Jordan, lawmakers show Israel under Jordanian-Palestinian rule; Foreign Ministry working to ease tensions-By ToI Staff-MAR 22,23-Today, 4:25 pm
Jordan’s parliament on Wednesday recommended expelling Israel’s ambassador, while displaying a map at the center of its chamber featuring Jordan, Israel, the West Bank and the Gaza Strip — all under the colors of the Jordanian and Palestinian flags.The vote and the map came in response to a speech by Israel’s Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich over the weekend in which he claimed the Palestinian people are an “invention” while standing by a map of “Greater Israel” that included the territory of the Hashemite Kingdom, in accordance with the hardline aspirations of some fringe extremists.The expulsion of Israeli Ambassador Eitan Surkis would require approval from the Jordanian government, which is an unlikely scenario. Surkis was summoned by Amman’s foreign ministry on Monday night in protest of Smotrich’s speech.Israel's Judiciary: Reform or Ruin? Symbolic votes to expel Israel’s envoy are common during times of heightened tensions between Jerusalem and Amman. In May 2021, Jordanian lawmakers unanimously called for the government to expel Israel’s envoy amid Operation Guardian of the Walls, an 11-day war between Israel and terror groups in the Gaza Strip.Speaking in Paris at a private memorial service on Sunday for a prominent right-wing Likud activist, Smotrich claimed the Palestinian people are “an invention” from the last century and that people like himself and his grandparents were the “real Palestinians.”Smotrich said there was “no such thing as Palestinians because there’s no such thing as the Palestinian people,” a comment that was met with applause and cheers from attendees in footage posted online.“Do you know who are the Palestinians?” asked the head of the ultra-nationalist Religious Zionism party and Israel’s finance minister. “I’m Palestinian,” he said, also mentioning his grandmother who was born in the northern Israeli town of Metulla 100 years ago, and his grandfather, a 13th-generation Jerusalemite, as the “real Palestinians.”“This truth needs to be heard in the White House in Washington. The whole world needs to hear this truth because it is the truth — and the truth will win,” Smotrich continued.The comments drew a harsh backlash from Jordan’s Foreign Ministry, which called them “reckless incitement and a violation of international norms and the Jordanian Peace Treaty.”In the face of Jordanian anger over the speech, Israel’s Foreign Ministry sought o tamp down the backlash. “Israel is committed to the 1994 peace agreement with Jordan. There has been no change in the position of the State of Israel, which recognizes the territorial integrity of the Hashemite Kingdom,” the ministry tweeted in both Hebrew and English. It did not mention Smotrich’s remarks about Palestinians.An Israeli diplomat told The Times of Israel on Wednesday that Jerusalem “understands Jordanian sensitivities,” adding that they were “working to send conciliatory messages.”“Israel’s connection with Jordan is crucial for regional calm and stability,” the official said. “They have gotten their message across,” the official said, stressing that the Foreign Ministry was working “based on the government decision to strengthen ties with Jordan because they are important.”The United States joined several other countries on Tuesday in condemning the comments.Smotrich has a history of making inflammatory statements against Palestinians, Arab citizens of Israel, non-Orthodox Jews, and the LGBTQ community.Earlier this month, the minister stirred international outrage with a call to “wipe out” a Palestinian town in the West Bank following a deadly Palestinian terror attack that killed two Israeli brothers. He later walked back the comment and apologized.His comments Sunday came hours after Israeli and PA delegations met for a relatively rare albeit low-stakes regional summit in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt, where they recommitted to de-escalating tensions, days before the start of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan. They also agreed to combat incitement to violence.Lazar Berman and Jacob Magid contributed to this report.

Mastercard digital ID app gets UK green light, launches NSW pilot program-Mar 20, 2023, 4:47 pm EDT | Larisa Redins
Mastercard has announced it’s now certified under the UK’s Digital Identity and Attributes Trust Framework (DIATF) as an identity provider.In other words, UK organizations can now use Mastercard’s digital identity service.“By receiving certification in the UK, Mastercard can collaborate with the private and public sector to offer ID,” says Sarah Clark, the SVP of digital identity at Mastercard.Mastercard’s ID app is available in major mobile app stores. The company says it allows consumers to prove their identity for various purposes, such as job applications, purchases, rentals and university admissions.According to Mastercard, ID provides a reliable digital identity platform that uses Mastercard’s global network. Consumers have control over their personal data, allowing them to decide what information to share and with whom.The Digital Identity Assurance Trust Framework (DIATF) sets the standards for digital identity solutions, allowing certified organizations like Mastercard to work together and ensure that attributes and identities are consistent and trusted. Providers must conduct annual assessments to meet DIATF requirements.“Digital identity is one of the keys to vastly reducing fraud and improving consumers’ experiences. The UK is at the forefront of giving people greater control in proving their identity easily and safely,” adds Clark.Mastercard has partnered with companies such as Samsung, Microsoft and Optus to provide global digital ID solutions since 2019 and will continue to expand.Mastercard is piloting a digital ID service in partnership with Service NSW and Tipple, a same-day alcohol delivery app, allowing customers to securely verify their age for online liquor purchases.The pilot began this January and permits users to verify they are 18 or over via a Mastercard ID exchange with the NSW digital identity system.Mastercard says it ensures the safe, confidential transfer of age verification from Service NSW to Tipple.“In today’s landscape, there needs to be a better way to provide quick and easy access to goods and services, without the hassle of sharing physical ID documents,” says Mastercard Australasia President Richard Wormald in a Financial Review article.The companies say this approach ensures minimal sharing of personal information while reducing the risk of identity crime.According to Mastercard, ID provides customers with a secure and reusable digital identity. By utilizing data encryption and biometric authentication technology to protect personal information, consumers remain in charge of their sensitive details while reducing fraud risk, Mastercard says.Starting June 1, all vendors of same-day delivery alcohol in NSW must verify a customer’s age digitally before purchasing.
Intellicheck reports higher cloud ID verification revenue in steady financial results-Mar 22, 2023, 12:11 pm EDT | Chris Burt
Year-end financial results for Intellicheck indicate a steady uptick in cloud-based identity verification adoption, providing a source of optimism for future earnings.The company preliminarily reports revenues from its digital identity technologies in the fourth quarter of 2022 of $4.55 million, up 17 percent over the same quarter a year earlier. Similar gains were reported in SaaS revenue. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue also ticked up during the quarter, as did expenses. Net loss for the quarter was $561,000 or $0.03 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $992,000 or $0.05 per diluted share a year earlier. Adjusted EBITDA improved to $389,000, compared to an adjusted EBITDA loss of $555,000 in Q4 2021.For full-year 2022, Intellicheck’s revenue declined by 3 percent from just over to just under $16 million, including non-recurring hardware sales lasts year worth $3.2 million. SaaS revenue grew by 21 percent from 2021 to 2022. The growth of SaaS revenue also improved the company’s gross profit as a percentage of revenue.Net loss in 2022 was $3.85 million, or $0.20 per diluted share, an improvement compared to a net loss of $7.48 million or $0.40 per diluted share the previous year. Adjusted EBITDA was negative $924,000 in both years.“I am very pleased with the progress we have made in diversifying our business as we expand our presence in more market verticals,” says Intellicheck CEO Bryan Lewis in a statement. “Our broad and growing client base and the continued adoption of our technology with expanded use cases by both existing and new clients underscores the quality and value of our identity validation solutions. As bad actors continue to expand their efforts at every turn, our clients know that by partnering with Intellicheck they have the advantage of technology that delivers a frictionless customer experience that onboards more good clients faster, without the need for expensive hardware, while virtually eliminating fraud quickly, easily, and effectively.”Since the end of Intellicheck’s fiscal year, which aligns with the calendar year, a multi million-dollar customer onboarding technology contract the company holds with a banking customer has expanded with a minimum 20 percent increase in transaction volume.
Indications that China has made big strides in chip muscle, price for facial recognition-Mar 21, 2023, 6:36 pm EDT | Jim Nash
A Chinese maker of measurement systems designed for three-dimensional facial recognition is reporting that its chips can outperform other chips on the international market and do it for less money.If true, it marks the beginning of the end for advanced-tech embargoes used against Beijing. And it presents a challenge to all other economies that are just starting to pull their strategic manufacturing from an aggressive China.Those nations and companies have to do all the work of relocated a major industry that places enormous resource and political demands on old or inadequate infrastructure, all the while innovating on technology that they sent essentially to be job-shopped in China decades ago.Plug the following link into your translator of choice for a translation of Wisesoft’s announcement (We used DeepL).Wisesoft reportedly has created 3D measurement chips that can be used in facial recognition cameras that work faster and cost less than foreign counterparts that China is trying to wean from.An engineering prototype reportedly is poised to make measurements in .01 seconds within a year. Today, the prototype’s operating time has accelerated from .05 seconds to .015 seconds. The first batch of 10 prototypes, none of which used foreign chips, have been delivered.Chip costs reportedly have been cut in more than half.The company says applications for the hardware include military, national defense, industrial manufacturing, transportation and medicine. It reportedly has already been used in work involving diagnosis of psychological diseases such as depression and unwanted behaviors including lying using a 3D camera measuring “micro-expressions.”The translation states that the goal is to innovate on “a high-speed high-precision three-dimensional face camera based on the ‘three-dimensional micro-expression capture analyzer.”It appears that someone in China is driving this project very hard.The translation indicates that “the company’s insistence on core technology breakthroughs” has forced a two-year-decline in Wisesoft’s corporate performance. It seems that the author of the report says the push has been so great that, according to the translation, there has been a “failure to timely project … current costs.” The company’s legacy business has suffered as an example.
Pangea deploys AI stress detection system for Southeast Asia government-Mar 21, 2023, 6:15 pm EDT | Larisa Redins
The technology will identify and decode psychological stress situations, often called visual stress detection and analysis, the company says.According to Pangea, the system was developed at the cost of millions of dollars and, with a significant number of years invested, can detect stress levels by analyzing real-time video. This technology can detect a person’s stress level in response to questions and differentiate between real people and deep fakes.“Many countries are currently facing mounting challenges in the realm of crime as well as unprecedented congestion at airports, land and sea border crossings,” says Amir Dagan, the head of visual stress analysis at Pangea. “AI can successfully address these challenges by shortening and improving the efficiency of the checkup and investigation processes.”Additionally, Pangea says the system can detect various psycho-physiological parameters that provide valuable AI-driven insights on a subject investigation, event analyses, authenticity and reliability assessments. Operators using Pangea’s AI solution will get real time voice or text alerts regarding abnormal psycho-physiological levels and can immediately form an evaluation of the subject’s reliability, the company says.The system has already been sold in 15 countries worldwide and the company has filed patents, one of which was granted and two more that are close to approval, company executives say.“These capabilities have proven themselves in every country the system has been implemented,” Dagan adds.Pangea says the accuracy rate of visual stress analysis technology employed by Pangea is over 90 percent. The Southeast Asian government organization in question has not yet been disclosed.Further, Pangea acquired this technology in 2022 when the company acquired the assets of Sensority, a startup that developed Internet of Things (IoT) devices.The company also holds contracts with several governments to produce biometric passports, most recently signing a deal with the DRC worth up to $70 million.
Govt insists BVAS a game changer in Nigeria polls, civil society calls for NIN addition-Mar 21, 2023, 5:32 pm EDT | Ayang Macdonald
Federal Communication Minister Lai Mohammed told press last weekend that although the BVAS handled a limited number of accredited voters, it was able to eliminate double voting and other forms of identity fraud, Nairametrics reports.The BVAS uses fingerprints and face biometrics to identity and accredit voters upon presentation of their Permanent Voter’s Card (PVC).Mohammed said the biometric accreditation system is a “game changer” because it confirms the total number of persons who are actually accredited to vote.“With the BVAS, it is now not possible for you to vote twice because your biometrics are captured,” said the Minister, adding that it created some marked improvement in the electoral process.So, while the federal government is praising the biometric voting system for its efficiency, civil society groups believe there is room for improvement, in order areas maybe, in order to render the country’s electoral process more credible and acceptable.According to Nigerians United for Peace (NUP), a umbrella grouping of civil society organizations, the National Independent Electoral Commission (INEC) must undertake further reforms in order to reduce incidents of fraud in incoming elections, writes The Nation.One of such reforms, as suggested by NUP, is for the electoral law to be amended so that the National Identification Number (NIN) details of every voter is added to their voter’s card.Speaking at the close of a meeting with stakeholders to review the 2023 election in Nigeria, NUP said making the NIN a requirement for voter registration and adding the same to the voter’s card will also help address the situation whereby unscrupulous individuals have more than one voter’s card.At least one independent observer has echoed the government’s claims that biometrics helped reduce fraud in the election.Liberia biometric voter registration begins, with hiccups
In a related election story from sub-regional neighbours Liberia, the pioneer biometric voter registration in the country kicked off on 20 March and citizens have been called upon to turn out massively for the exercise ahead of general elections in October.Daily observer reports that the process started in six counties concerned with the first phase of the registration, but not without early complaints of hiccups which may negatively affect the process if not quickly addressed by NEC.In the meantime, a special message ahead of the start of the registration exercise, from President George Weah described voter registration as the only legitimate means through which citizens will be able to exercise the civic duty of electing their next President and parliamentarians of choice.“I call on all citizens, 18 years and above, to register in order to be able to vote. The National Elections Commission has said from March 20 to April 9, 2023, citizens of Gbarpolu, Bomi, Cape Mount, Grand Bassa, Margibi and Montserrado Counties will register to vote,” Weah said in a statement published by the presidency.He added: “And from April 21 to May 11, 2023, the citizens of Bong, Grand Gedeh, Grand Kru, Lofa, Maryland, Nimba, Rivercess, River Gee, and Sinoe Counties will do theirs.”Meanwhile, the National Elections Commission (NEC) announced that the last consignment of biometric voter registration equipment arrived in the country last weekend. A total of 1,130 biometric kits came in via the Roberts International Airport, according to Heritage News.Also, before the voter registration began, the NEC unveiled a personal data entry portal for potential registrants to pre-enrol before going to registration centers for their biometric capture.In a press release, the NEC said the process, which is optional nonetheless, is meant to reduce the amount of processing time required to complete the registration process at NEC offices.
Ping Identity introduces decentralized identity management system-Mar 21, 2023, 3:07 pm EDT | Larisa Redins
The company says this ID management solution gives individuals greater control over their digital identities and helps improve privacy, security and reduces resource and compliance issues for organizations.“Organizations spend significant time and money obtaining and verifying information from customers and employees, then attempt to determine access, entitlements, and authorizations to remain secure and compliant,” says Andre Durand, CEO and founder of Ping Identity.With the rise of digital services, the need for verified information about customers and employees has become increasingly important. The company says PingOne Neo simplifies obtaining and verifying data from trusted sources inside and outside an organization. By using verifiable credentials, organizations can verify identities without complex back-end integrations, which could otherwise increase their attack surface, the company says.Organizations can request users to create a verifiable credential through various methods, including email, QR code and in-person. This process eliminates the need for manual verification, the company says.Users must create a credential by providing a government-issued identification and/or doing a live-face capture. They then verify the authenticity of the user by selfie biometric match to document, face liveness, document authentication or mobile device posture checks.Verifiable credentials are created and stored in various locations, such as mobile device wallets, application-based or proprietary wallets and open source wallets.The company says that users can then present verifiable credentials in person or digitally, enabling them to share essential data for various interactions.“Neo eliminates the manual resource burden from businesses while empowering individuals with their own data, reducing threats of fraud or identity theft while increasing privacy,” adds Durand.According to Ping Identity, the decentralized solution also provides individuals with greater protection against identity theft and fraud. When an individual requests a verifiable credential from an organization, it is cryptographically signed and added to their digital wallet. Users can then share it with the business that requires it. The company says that individuals are entirely in control of what information they choose to share.To ensure maximum interoperability, Ping Identity says it has designed Pingone Neo to work with decentralized and other identity standards from the OpenID Foundation, World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) and International Organization for Standardization (ISO).Further, Ping Identity is a major contributor to the Open Wallet Foundation Initiative (OWF). It supports interoperability between open-source software and digital wallets, the company says.Earlier this year, Ping Identity was in the news for integrating device identification into its PingOne DaVinci platform to help enterprises avoid fraud and improve customer satisfaction.Worldwide Zero Trust Leadership event series launches Ping Identity is one of several major players in the digital identity ecosystem that have come together under Beyond Identity’s leadership to launch a series of events exploring zero trust authentication.A series of events will be held throughout 2023, put on by a coalition that also includes Palo Alto Networks, CrowdStrike, Optiv, World Wide Technology, Guidepoint Security, BeyondTrust, and Climb Channel Solutions.The goal of the events is to help organizations to overcome the limitations of passwords and legacy multi-factor authentication techniques with zero trust implementations.The event series kicked off with a virtual event on ‘The Bridge to Zero Trust’ last week.
Biometrics for travel at different levels in three Southern African countries-Mar 21, 2023, 2:18 pm EDT | Ayang Macdonald
The Southern African nations of Botswana, Namibia and Zimbabwe are taking different measures to facilitate travel across their borders using digital identity and biometrics. The neighboring nations of Botswana and Namibia recently abolished the use of passports for mutual border crossings and have made their national ID cards the required travel credential. In this light, Botswana says it is working to introduce a biometric digital ID card to be used for that purpose. In Zimbabwe, the government says it is far advanced with work on a project to install biometric gates at border points as a way of smoothing border control processes for people traveling in and out of the country. This, as the country continues to expand its coverage for biometric passport issuance.Botswana, Namibia leaders hail new consensus on travel ID
After the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was signed in February to put an end to the use of passports for travel between the two countries, their leaders have hailed the move as an exemplary step towards fostering sub regional integration.Presidents Mokgweetsi Masisi of Botswana and Hage Geingob of Namibia, as quoted by The African Exponent, say the agreement sets the pace for free travel in the Southern African Development Community (SADC) regional bloc at bilateral and multilateral levels.Meanwhile, as part of efforts to align with the new disposition, the Botswana leader dropped a hint that the country would soon introduce digital ID cards for its citizens to render their travel experience to Namibia seamless.“The Botswana passport is an electronic document that contains the biometric information that can be used to verify and authenticate the identity of travellers through a computer scan. In this regard, the Government of Botswana has also embarked on a process to transform the national identity card to an electronic identity card,” said Geingob after the signing of the MoU, as quoted by The African Exponent.‘Smart’ border gates in Zimbabwe-The country’s immigration department is implementing the project which will allow owners of biometric passports go through ID checks at the borders without any immigration officer intervening, says Home Affairs and Cultural Heritage Minister Kazembe Kazembe.The Minister made the announcement at the launch of a biometric passport enrolment center in the town of Mazowe, per The Herald, which notes that the new credential constitutes part of Zimbabwe’s digital transformation and innovation ambitions.Speaking about the new biometric passport center, the Minister said the move is to make it easier for all Zimbabweans desirous of the document to have it in a convenient manner.He mentioned that before now, the issuance of passports was limited to 10 provincial offices but this proved challenging as applicants queued up for many hours waiting to be served.The official reiterated the advanced security features of the Zimbabwe new biometric passport, saying they meet standards of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO).
Telecoms tycoon says Africa can emulate India to build its digital infrastructure-Mar 21, 2023, 12:48 pm EDT | Ayang Macdonald
This is according to Sunil Bharti Mittal, telecommunications industry tycoon and chairman of multinational conglomerate Bharti Enterprises, as reported by India’s Economic Times.Speaking recently during a telecoms event in India, Mittal said Africa’s 55 countries can learn from India’s model to build critical digital infrastructure which can help ramp up the continent’s socio-economic development efforts.According to the business mogul, building digital identity and other important digital infrastructure will not only make for the shortage of physical infrastructure suffered by the continent, it will enable it improve its manufacturing which he says currently stands at just two percent of the global total.Mittal added that his experience working in the digital connectivity domain in 15 African countries in the last 13 years shows that more attention has to be paid to it, and India, to him, has shown the example of how it can be done.“The famously called JAM trinity (Jan Dhan, Aadhaar and mobile combination) is the right way to apply into Africa, so that they can get to at least a very high-quality digital connectivity across the entire continent,” says Mittal as quoted by The Economic Times.He went on that India’s progress in the domain of skilling, education and healthcare via the use of digital technology is good enough for the model to be replicated in Africa as it’s “frugal and low-cost.”While digital connectivity is important, Mittal also spoke about the import of physical connectivity saying it can also be improved.India’s digital infrastructure advances have been cited as a reference especially for African countries before.Last month, speakers at the Digital Convergence Initiative workshop said the interoperability model of India’s digital infrastructure (the India stack) heralds good news for the private sector and can be used by African nations to separate the population and social protection registers for greater efficiency.A development policy researcher also argued in an article last year that India’s digital experience as exemplified by the robustness of the Aadhaar digital ID has the potential to inspire African countries undertaking digital transformation projects.India is also using its G20 presidency to mobilize nations on the need to build vital digital public infrastructure which, which it posits, are important for attaining sustainable development goals.
Thailand’s blockchain digital ID infrastructure – an ecosystem in an ID ecosystem-Mar 20, 2023, 6:58 pm EDT | Frank Hersey
Thailand is progressing rapidly with enrollment into its blockchain-based biometric digital identity infrastructure operated by the National Digital ID Company Limited (NDID), with registration up by 50 percent since November at 9.2 million. Now half the population is eligible to be part of the system as it readies to introduce verifiable credentials and a digital wallet.Various schemes and projects involving telcos and convenience stores have been launching in the country of 70 million. NDID is not a digitized version of the national identity card or even a digital identity in itself, so Biometric Update spoke to its CEO, Boonsun Prasitsumrit, in Bangkok to learn what it is and the role it plays in the identity ecosystem and financial sector.The beginnings of a public-private trusted ecosystem.Rather than the Thai government building a national digital ID system, it created a way to link service providers and identity providers (IDPs) to allow the digital sector to flourish and innovate. It also decided not to be as directly involved, establishing a private company to oversee the project.“NDID in the beginning, four years ago, we decided that IDPs were not only to be banks,” says Boonsun Prasitsumrit in the NDID HQ, “it could be anything, anyone who qualifies to do it: bank, mobile network, fintech.”At the outset, the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Digital Economy and Society realized they were “sharing the same pain point: the KYC process,” says Prasitsumrit. The ministries helped establish the Digital Identity Committee in 2017.The country has the Thai National ID Card, which has holder details embedded in a chip. There is near universal coverage for citizens, but the smart card chip is rarely used for opening new accounts or accessing new services, says Prasitsumrit, as the standards on how to use the chip have not been clear. People generally still have to attend government offices and banks in person with their cards and often photocopies of their ID.The Digital Identity Committee decided to develop the infrastructure to unlock identity for other areas via a trusted ecosystem. Health and education were part of the original discussion, but emphasis was placed on banking then financial and insurance services. NDID was established as a public private partnership that is 36 percent publicly owned.“If it’s government, it will take some time,” notes Prasitsumrit. As it was for all things digital, it needed to work faster than a government agency can.The majority of NDID’s sixty-plus shareholders are in the financial sector, such as the Thai Banking Association, along with the stock exchange and Post Office. The Bank of Thailand developed a regulatory sandbox for the system and now eleven banks are part of it.In 2018, the Electronic Transaction Development Agency (ETDA) likewise worked on national standards for levels of assurance aligned with those of NIST. Legislative changes in 2019 allowed the first use of the system by the end of that year.More than nine million are now enrolled and 35 million (up from 30 million in November 2022) are now at the country’s highest assurance level, 2.3, which requires a smartcard ID, check against the government’s D.Dopa national IDP and face biometrics.With these, Thai people are ready to enroll in NDID the next time an opportunity presents itself online, such as wanting to open a new bank or securities account or taking out a loan.Both a blockchain and bypass-NDID is a “connecting platform,” says Prasitsumrit. As a decentralized ledger, NDID cannot see any of the information passing across it between banks, users, IDPs and authoritative sources, but simply a log of timestamped access requests.Users visit a bank in person in the first instance. People are not going to banks to get NDID, says Prasitsumrit, they are going to conduct transactions. They hand over their smartcard ID and undergo a biometric check, where bank staff or cameras compare the person with the photo held in the card – the trusted source. Banks can check fingerprints, but this is not popular. If there is no photo in the system, the bank can take a photo to enroll a person into NDID.“Thai people don’t know that their data at the bank is at the highest level,” says Prasitsumrit, “they are ready to use [NDID].”When going through NDID enrollment they would not be aware of the company as a brand unless they read the full terms and conditions, says Prasitsumrit, explaining how the platform is very much in the background.The millions of users enrolled “know there is a difference” even if they never have any interactions with NDID.This is because they can now open any account or product with registered providers by selecting online the bank where they underwent the KYC and so do not need to visit in person or prove ID again.Dropout rates for new service sign-ups are falling.When prompted during sign up, a user selects the bank where they are already enrolled as their ID provider. The target bank – the relying party – sends a request to the selected bank via the NDID ledger.The bank acting as IDP then notifies the user that it has been selected for ID proofing and takes the user through verification in its own app on their phone, using face biometrics, PIN and registered mobile number.When the IDP bank has confirmed ID, it notifies the relying party bank back through NDID, with this logged in the blockchain. It then sends the user data to the new bank directly, outside the NDID platform. The user completes registration by creating a new password.ID is “nothing to do with NDID until there’s a request from a relying party through NDID for an identity provider,” explains Prasitsumrit, as the blockchain neither sees nor stores sensitive data.A relying party can verify across multiple IDPs as wells as multiple authoritative sources in the process, such as credit scoring agencies.People have to redo KYC every two to three years, or if they get a new ID card.Fees are a cost saving-NDID’s business model is taking a fee for connecting relying parties and IDPs.“It’s like the credit card model, a hundred percent [of the bill] goes to the relying parties” says Prasitsumrit. It is a fixed fee, not a percentage and includes two prices: a fee to the IDP which accounts for 98-99 percent of the price, with the remaining fraction going to the NDID.As part of the structure of establishing the NDID, the company does not and cannot control the fees. The process is still a cost-saving for banks compared to having to take a new customer through KYC.The NDID fee is discounted by eight percent to government departments using the system.Verifiable credentials and a digital wallet NDID is also launching a wallet for verifiable credentials. “For eKYC, we really need a high level of assurance. The bank itself can confirm to open the wallet by using biometrics, so we can ensure the owner of the wallet is really him or her,” says Prasitsumrit.The company is working with a government department on a proof of concept for VCs for paperwork which a user can then share with their bank.Universities are already in talks about providing certificates and transcripts as VCs to the wallets.NDID and MNID: AIS, True and DTAC-Thailand has three telcos – AIS, DTAC and True – which are becoming IDPs. Their scheme is Mobile Network ID (MNID). The process has been underway for a couple of years but is proving slow as the telecom regulator, the National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission, is the operator.The MNID system serves its mobile customers rather than being a competitor to NDID and the two systems will merge under the ETDA. Its chairperson wants NDID, MNID and government services (D.Dopa) to be interoperable.Technical discussions are underway to determine how a relying party in the NDID platform can request ID proofing through AIS or DTAC and vice versa. Relying parties can choose to go via NDID or potentially MNID, but the hope is that a unified systems will offer cost savings.AIS has two ID capabilities on the go. Along with DTAC, it can partly use NDID, do its own checks or use partner banks. The operator has around 20,000 service points across the country. A relying party in NDID can request a person to visit an AIS location to have their ID card read. In this instance, AIS a service provider to NDID – not an IDP. It undertakes biometric comparisons at its kiosks. The person does not need to be an AIS customer.AIS is also working on its own digital ID for which users would have to be AIS subscribers.The hope is that when the systems are fully integrated, Thais will effectively have mobile digital ID (rather than just eKYC).Growing digital ID landscape-Alongside NDID as the main infrastructure, and MNID which will join it, there is a scheme for digitizing the national ID within the Thailand Digital ID Framework (2022-24). Citizens can take their cards to local government agencies for chip reading and biometric checks to generate the ID in an app.The Digital Government Development Agency (DGA) is also working with 7-Eleven whose stores are near ubiquitous. Staff authenticate the user against their card details and chip content and send the data back to the DGA which cross-checks with D.Dopa to create a digital ID.A pilot system is allowing Thais to use mobile digital ID on domestic flights.“The government doesn’t have an application or system similar to the banks’, they can’t provide non-face-to-face [ID],” says the CEO. The national ID card issuer is developing mobile applications, similar to mobile banking, but with fewer than 50,000 users and few transactions.Government services are beginning to accept digital transactions such as for paying land tax. In the future, government departments will not be able to refuse the use of digital ID, nor will private providers.The country is aiming for ten million mobile digitalized ID holders by the end of the year.The role of biometrics in banking is increasing. The Bank of Thailand is introducing new requirements for face biometrics authentication for certain transfer thresholds.The future: interoperability and regulation-The NDID system is still operating within a regulatory sandbox.“In the future, our concern is about laws and regulations because we have an app already, but we don’t have regulations,” says Prasitsumrit, “so now the ETDA is going to issue many regulations and we also need to apply for the license, not just NDID: the banks need to apply for the license.”NDID is also hoping to test its services with other countries and has an agreement with Mastercard on international issues. The CEO hopes that Thai people will be able to use their mobile banking as proof of identity abroad in the future.Whatever happens, he hopes to maintain high standards: “Digital ID proving is very important. Once you relax or you loosen that standard, then any fraud transaction that should happen – there’s no point having NDID.”
Deepfakes get more attention, but code keeps getting more dangerous-Mar 21, 2023, 12:36 pm EDT | Jim Nash
IT has a habit of throwing parties that the world stampedes or ignores for as long as possible.People rushed for smartphones but almost anything has been able to distract from news about deepfakes.Now, a second very-high profile case of political deepfakes, this one in Venezuela, has been discovered, and a modicum of attention is being paid to the algorithms.It might help reverse several years of people in leadership positions around the world who have dismissed the algorithms as parlor tricks and malicious pranks that tomorrow’s technology will make obsolete.National United States newscaster ABC News is reporting that lawmakers in the state of Washington are preparing to give political candidates recourse in civil court if they are victimized by any form of deepfakes.It is unusual for a U.S. national broadcaster to report on a bill passing the upper house of a distant, largely rural state.State senators have passed to the lower house a bill designed to provide a bare minimal level of protection from false voice, face or other biometric content designed to derail a campaign. Of course, by the time someone has prevailed in court after a synthetic media, the politician might be hiding from enraged, armed political partisans.According to ABC, the proposal was not decisively voted out of committee. An early version of the Senate bill failed before ultimately passing out of committee 35-15. A similar bill is moving through the House of Representatives. A legislative analysis of it is here.About a week prior to that report came a breathless deepfakes article from Vanity Fair, an esteemed and storied U.S. magazine of and for a socialite class who pride themselves on how long they can snigger at new electronics and IT before buying into them.Vanity Fair’s headline: “This will be dangerous in elections.” The piece says “political media’s” next hurdle will be dealing with deepfakes. Of course, that is a true assessment, but it is narrow.The electorate will almost certainly see a political deepfake before a pundit can bloviate about it. Voice deepfakes already have defrauded businesses and consumers.Vanity Fair’s editorial style mandates printing the names of famous and powerful people in bold, and it is both unsettling and encouraging to see it. It’s another shoe to drop for people who have been watching deepfakes evolve into a threat. But it also can be reassuring that sometimes the sky really is in danger of falling.Then, not long after ABC’s and Vanity Fair’s deadlines came word that a pair of political videos were posted in Venezuela. One was laudatory of the nation’s president, Nicolás Maduro, the second accused Maduro opponents in government of mismanaging $152 million.Neither were true. Both were read by the deepfake avatars of actors with synthetic U.S. accents, according to The Irish Times.Five YouTube accounts were suspended by company officials, but that step, like the idea of suing people wronged by malicious deepfakes created using the Synthesia AI video platform, was largely moot.

Bill Gates Says ‘The Age Of AI Has Begun’by Zero Hedge-March 22nd 2023, 11:54 am-Gates believes OpenAI’s language generation artificial intelligence tools will be at forefront of next technological revolution.
In an op-ed titled“The Age of AI has begun” on “The Blog of Bill Gates,” Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates discussed the upcoming paradigm shift in technology. Having been instrumental in developing personal computers several decades ago, the billionaire seems to know a thing or two about technological innovation. He believes that OpenAI’s language generation artificial intelligence tools will be at the forefront of the next technological revolution. Gates wrote, “I’ve seen two demonstrations of technology that struck me as revolutionary.” “The first time was in 1980, when I was introduced to a graphical user interface—the forerunner of every modern operating system, including Windows,” he said. Gates said the second big surprise came last year with the impressive advancement in OpenAI’s ChatGPT.“The development of AI is as fundamental as the creation of the microprocessor, the personal computer, the Internet, and the mobile phone,” he said. “It will change the way people work, learn, travel, get health care, and communicate with each other.”Gates said he’s been in contact with OpenAI since 2016 and last year challenged the team to train the chatbot to pass the Advanced Placement biology exam. A few months later, he said the bot could pass a college-level biology course. After seeing the results, Gates began to contemplate the future and how AI will be intertwined with humans on a day-to-day basis, just like computers and smartphones.“This inspired me to think about all the things that AI can achieve in the next five to 10 years.”Gates has emerged as a significant player in the AI arms race, as Microsoft, the company he founded, has pledged over $10 billion in funding to OpenAI.However, like any new technology, there’s always a concern. Gates addressed some of those issues: “Any new technology that’s so disruptive is bound to make people uneasy, and that’s certainly true with artificial intelligence. I understand why—it raises hard questions about the workforce, the legal system, privacy, bias, and more.”On the bias issue, there have been numerous complaints about AI trainers skewing ChatGPT toward answering questions with a left-leaning spin. This has been such a significant problem that Elon Musk is allegedly taking on — in a new project to develop a ‘non-woke’ alternative chatbot. Even the co-creator of ChatGPT warned that the world might not be “that far away from potentially scary” AI. … and what’s disturbing — is if AI is programmed to enforce the truths determined by figures like Gates, Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla, and the federal government. While Gates expresses enthusiasm about the potential of AI to be game-changing for humans, there is a flip side to it. The technology could become a tool for extreme censorship, which could make the Twitter censorship program seem trivial in comparison.
OECD seeks comment on its recommendation for digital ID governance-Mar 22, 2023, 2:45 pm EDT | Frank Hersey
The OECD’s Public Governance Committee and its Working Party of Senior Digital Government Officials have developed a series of recommendations on implementing and governing digital ID at the national and international levels as digital public infrastructure.The document does not mention biometrics.It states the Recommendations are based on three pillars: “Developing user-centred and inclusive digital identity systems; Strengthening the governance of digital identity; Enabling cross-border use of digital identity.”OECD Recommendations are legal instruments adopted by the OECD Council, and while not legally binding, adherents are expected to implement them. The officials are soliciting comment on the draft until 31 March from government officials, civil society organizations, international organizations and interested citizens.Context and definitions
The draft document sets out the group’s recognition of what digital identities can do, such as potentially simplify access to government services.“Establishing a successful digital identity system and widely adopted solutions can simplify interactions, enable personalisation, and reduce the risk of error and fraud,” states the preamble.“The success of digital identity systems relies on their usability and accessibility by the intended audience, including those who may not have access to technology or digital solutions, to ensure that essential services are available for all.”It goes on to define all the components of digital identity. Even definitions can be influential. The OECD definition of AI is the basis of that of the EU for the EU AI Act currently under development. This document has been drafted with reference to a large number of other standards documentation from the ISO, W3C, European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI), U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), European Commission, World Bank and UN bodies.OECD Recommendations-Here comes the real meat of the document, as seven lists of recommendations: on how to implement digital identity systems, minimizing barriers to access and use of digital ID, cross-border use, strengthening governance, privacy protection, building international trust in the systems and aligning legal frameworks to encourage interoperability.The OECD recommends taking into account the context where a system will be developed, such as digital maturity and assessing the needs of both users and service providers, public and private. Products should be accessible to all, with minority and vulnerable groups considered, among people and businesses. Digital identity must be portable across tech, sectors and locations.“The draft highlights the ethics of digital identity, the impact on inclusion and access, on vulnerable groups, but I feel it also recognizes the impact on less-vulnerable groups,” Henk Marsman, principal consultant for IAM at SonicBee tells Biometric Update. “So basically, the possibility of human harm is recognized.”Users must be able to control what of their information is shared and with whom. And even if they use digital identity at all, notes Marsman: “Realizing digital identity is an add-on and not replacement means that during design and operation the context needs to be taken into account, and not every resident/citizen will make use of it.”OECD adherents are asked to consider the contexts of individuals, communities and service providers as well as the contexts of countries within international identity processes.“That every digital identity solution is highly contextual and part of a larger eco-system (that addresses the copy-paste tendencies of large vendors and success stories as well as the ‘single system will fail’ syndrome),” comments Marsman. “Recognizing it should fit into a society that is moving to digital and that it relies on other administrations and practices is key to success.”For governance, it calls for long-term strategy and expectations, involving clearly defined roles for government agencies and authorities within a country. These must foster inclusion. Cooperation between public and private sectors should be encouraged to drive innovation.Marsman approves of the document mentioning that “the government has a role like somewhat of a ‘market master,’ making sure that private companies’ drive for profit is restrained when it comes to public and basic services, to ensure everyone is included.”There should be a means of redress built in and even consideration for the environmental impact of technologies used.“Treat privacy and data protection as fundamental tenets of digital identity systems,” states the OECD document, “and encourage the adoption of privacy-by-design and privacy-by-default approaches that include informed consent, selective disclosure and collection, as well as purpose and use limitations regarding personal data.”The final two sets of Recommendations cover interoperability and international usage. The leaders hope that countries will establish points of contact to discuss these issues, and that they will open up issuance and recognition of digital identity solutions and attributes to reduce exclusion, such as for foreign workers.Next steps-Comments will be collected, moderated and anonymously published. If approved, the overall Recommendation form the basis for the OECD to “serve as a forum for exchanging information, guidance, and monitoring activities and emerging trends around the governance of digital identity.”Marsman notes that the document “really honors the title of ‘governance of …’, and that is exactly what is important to redirect digital identity systems that have gone off-path, and the governance of oversight it requires to stay on-path in the first place.”

10 For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light: the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine.
11 And I will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their iniquity; and I will cause the arrogancy of the proud to cease, and will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible.
12 I will make a man more precious than fine gold; even a man than the golden wedge of Ophir.

19 The earth is utterly broken down, the earth is clean dissolved, the earth is moved exceedingly.
20 The earth shall reel to and fro like a drunkard, and shall be removed like a cottage; and the transgression thereof shall be heavy upon it; and it shall fall, and not rise again.
21 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the LORD shall punish the host of the high ones that are on high, and the kings of the earth upon the earth.
22 And they shall be gathered together, as prisoners are gathered in the pit, and shall be shut up in the prison, and after many days shall they be visited.

EZEKIEL 38:1-23
1 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
2 Son of man, set thy face against Gog, the land of Magog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy against him,
3 And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal:
4 And I will turn thee back, and put hooks into thy jaws, and I will bring thee forth, and all thine army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed with all sorts of armour, even a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords:
5 Persia,(IRAN,IRAQ) Ethiopia, and Libya with them; all of them with shield and helmet:
6 Gomer,(GERMANY) and all his bands; the house of Togarmah (TURKEY) of the north quarters, and all his bands: and many people with thee.(AFRICAN MUSLIMS,SUDAN,TUNESIA ETC)
7 Be thou prepared, and prepare for thyself, thou, and all thy company that are assembled unto thee, and be thou a guard unto them.
8 After many days thou shalt be visited: in the latter years thou shalt come into the land that is brought back from the sword, and is gathered out of many people, against the mountains of Israel, which have been always waste: but it is brought forth out of the nations, and they shall dwell safely all of them.
9 Thou shalt ascend and come like a storm, thou shalt be like a cloud to cover the land, thou, and all thy bands, and many people with thee.
10 Thus saith the Lord GOD; It shall also come to pass, that at the same time shall things come into thy mind, and thou shalt think an evil thought:
11 And thou shalt say, I will go up to the land of unwalled villages; I will go to them that are at rest, that dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates,
12 To take a spoil, and to take a prey; to turn thine hand upon the desolate places that are now inhabited, and upon the people that are gathered out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and goods, that dwell in the midst of the land.
13 Sheba, and Dedan, and the merchants of Tarshish, with all the young lions thereof, shall say unto thee, Art thou come to take a spoil? hast thou gathered thy company to take a prey? to carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to take a great spoil?(OIL IS IN SPOIL-I BELIEVE THATS WHY RUSSIA,ARAB/MUSLIMS MARCH TO ISRAEL)
14 Therefore, son of man, prophesy and say unto Gog, Thus saith the Lord GOD; In that day when my people of Israel dwelleth safely, shalt thou not know it?
15 And thou shalt come from thy place out of the north parts, thou, and many people with thee, all of them riding upon horses, a great company, and a mighty army:
16 And thou shalt come up against my people of Israel, as a cloud to cover the land; it shall be in the latter days, and I will bring thee against my land, that the heathen may know me, when I shall be sanctified in thee, O Gog, before their eyes.
17 Thus saith the Lord GOD; Art thou he of whom I have spoken in old time by my servants the prophets of Israel, which prophesied in those days many years that I would bring thee against them?
18 And it shall come to pass at the same time when Gog shall come against the land of Israel, saith the Lord GOD, that my fury shall come up in my face.
19 For in my jealousy and in the fire (atomic bomb) of my wrath have I spoken, Surely in that day there shall be a great shaking in the land of Israel;
20 So that the fishes of the sea, and the fowls of the heaven, and the beasts of the field, and all creeping things that creep upon the earth, and all the men that are upon the face of the earth, shall shake at my presence, and the mountains shall be thrown down, and the steep places shall fall, and every wall shall fall to the ground.
21 And I will call for a sword against him throughout all my mountains, saith the Lord GOD: every man’s sword shall be against his brother.
22 And I will plead against him with pestilence (biological,chemical,nuclear) and with blood; and I will rain upon him, and upon his bands, and upon the many people that are with him, an overflowing rain, and great hailstones, fire, and brimstone.(NUKED,THEN MIGRATING BIRDS EAT RUSSIA/ARAB/MUSLIMS FLESH)
23 Thus will I magnify myself, and sanctify myself; and I will be known in the eyes of many nations, and they shall know that I am the LORD.
EZEKIEL 39:1-29
1 Therefore, thou son of man, prophesy against Gog, and say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal:
2 And I will turn thee back, and leave but the sixth part of thee,(300 MILIION RUSSIA-ARAB-MUSLIMS GET NUKED BY ISRAEL) and will cause thee to come up from the north parts, and will bring thee upon the mountains of Israel:
3 And I will smite thy bow out of thy left hand, and will cause thine arrows to fall out of thy right hand.
4 Thou shalt fall upon the mountains of Israel, thou,(RUSSIA) and all thy bands,(RUSSIA SUPPORTED WITH WEAPONS-ARAB/MUSLIM COUNTRIES) and the people that is with thee: I will give thee unto the ravenous birds of every sort, and to the beasts of the field to be devoured.
5 Thou shalt fall upon the open field: for I have spoken it, saith the Lord GOD.
6 And I will send a fire (ATOMIC BOMB) on Magog, and among them that dwell carelessly in the isles: and they shall know that I am the LORD.
7 So will I make my holy name known in the midst of my people Israel; and I will not let them pollute my holy name any more: and the heathen shall know that I am the LORD, the Holy One in Israel.
8 Behold, it is come, and it is done, saith the Lord GOD; this is the day whereof I have spoken.
9 And they that dwell in the cities of Israel shall go forth, and shall set on fire and burn the weapons, both the shields and the bucklers, the bows and the arrows, and the handstaves, and the spears, and they shall burn them with fire seven years:
10 So that they shall take no wood out of the field, neither cut down any out of the forests; for they shall burn the weapons with fire: and they shall spoil those that spoiled them, and rob those that robbed them, saith the Lord GOD.
11 And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will give unto Gog a place there of graves in Israel, the valley of the passengers on the east of the sea: and it shall stop the noses of the passengers: and there shall they bury Gog and all his multitude: and they shall call it The valley of Hamongog.
12 And seven months shall the house of Israel be burying of them, that they may cleanse the land.
13 Yea, all the people of the land shall bury them; and it shall be to them a renown the day that I shall be glorified, saith the Lord GOD.
14 And they shall sever out men of continual employment, passing through the land to bury with the passengers those that remain upon the face of the earth, to cleanse it: after the end of seven months shall they search.
15 And the passengers that pass through the land, when any seeth a man’s bone, then shall he set up a sign by it, till the buriers have buried it in the valley of Hamongog.
16 And also the name of the city shall be Hamonah. Thus shall they cleanse the land.
17 And, thou son of man, thus saith the Lord GOD; Speak unto every feathered fowl, and to every beast of the field, Assemble yourselves, and come; gather yourselves on every side to my sacrifice that I do sacrifice for you, even a great sacrifice upon the mountains of Israel, that ye may eat flesh, and drink blood.
18 Ye shall eat the flesh of the mighty, and drink the blood of the princes of the earth, of rams, of lambs, and of goats, of bullocks, all of them fatlings of Bashan.
19 And ye shall eat fat till ye be full, and drink blood till ye be drunken, of my sacrifice which I have sacrificed for you.
20 Thus ye shall be filled at my table with horses and chariots, with mighty men, and with all men of war, saith the Lord GOD.
21 And I will set my glory among the heathen, and all the heathen shall see my judgment that I have executed, and my hand that I have laid upon them.
22 So the house of Israel shall know that I am the LORD their God from that day and forward.
23 And the heathen shall know that the house of Israel went into captivity for their iniquity: because they trespassed against me, therefore hid I my face from them, and gave them into the hand of their enemies: so fell they all by the sword.
24 According to their uncleanness and according to their transgressions have I done unto them, and hid my face from them.
25 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Now will I bring again the captivity of Jacob, and have mercy upon the whole house of Israel, and will be jealous for my holy name;
26 After that they have borne their shame, and all their trespasses whereby they have trespassed against me, when they dwelt safely in their land, and none made them afraid.
27 When I have brought them again from the people, and gathered them out of their enemies’ lands, and am sanctified in them in the sight of many nations;
28 Then shall they know that I am the LORD their God, which caused them to be led into captivity among the heathen: but I have gathered them unto their own land, and have left none of them any more there.
29 Neither will I hide my face any more from them: for I have poured out my spirit upon the house of Israel, saith the Lord GOD.

Putin hosts China’s Xi Jinping in the Kremlin with imperial palace pageantry-Pair hold series of highly choreographed encounters, including 7-course banquet; discuss ‘strategic cooperation’ and reducing reliance on Western markets-By VLADIMIR ISACHENKOV 21 March 2023, 9:23 pm
MOSCOW (AP) — Russia and China showcased their “no-limit friendship” on Tuesday during a pomp-laden Kremlin ceremony intended to further cement ties amid the fighting in Ukraine.After hosting Chinese leader Xi Jinping over a seven-course private dinner for four and a half hours the previous night, Russian President Vladimir Putin greeted him in the old imperial palace for talks involving top officials from both countries.Xi walked slowly up the opulent red-carpeted staircase of the Grand Kremlin Palace as guards in 19th-century-style parade uniforms snapped to attention.Putin was waiting to greet the Chinese leader in St. George’s Hall where walls are covered by white-marble plaques with gold engravings of the names of military units and soldiers awarded the order of St. George, a top military award established by Catherine the Great.In a tightly choreographed ceremony filled with imperial grandeur, the two leaders entered the huge chandeliered room from opposite sides and shook hands in the middle to the sound of the Russian and Chinese national anthems.They walked past a lineup of Russian and Chinese officials to sit down for talks. Putin and Xi both wore black suits and dark red ties.The pageantry reflected the importance of Xi’s three-day visit to Russia that gave a strong political boost to Putin just days after the International Criminal Court issued an arrest warrant for the Russian leader on charges of alleged involvement in the abductions of thousands of children from Ukraine.Moscow, which doesn’t recognize the court’s jurisdiction, dismissed the move as “legally null and void,” but the arrest warrant further ramped up the pressure on the Russian leader as the fighting in Ukraine has dragged into a second year.After the talks, Putin and Xi issued joint declarations pledging to further bolster their “strategic cooperation,” develop cooperation in energy, high-tech industries and other spheres and expand the use of their currencies in mutual trade to reduce dependence on the West.They said they would develop military cooperation and conduct more joint sea and air patrols, but there was no mention of any prospective Chinese weapons supplies to Russia that the US and other Western allies feared.Putin and Xi made long statements after the talks to a selected audience of officials and reporters from their pools. They didn’t take questions.Putin hailed China’s proposals for a political settlement and a cease-fire in Ukraine, saying that it could serve as a basis for a peaceful settlement “once the West and Kyiv are ready for it.” The US has criticized Beijing’s plan as a move intended to allow Russia to shore up its gains.Putin and Xi wrapped up the day with a state dinner in the 15th-century Palace of Facets which served as a banquet hall for the czars. They again exchanged pledges of expanding the countries’ “comprehensive partnership” at a table next to a frescoed wall before the audience of top officials.Putin cited a long quote from China’s classical Book of Changes about friendship capable of overcoming any obstacles that the interpreter failed to fully grasp. He raised a glass with a toast wishing good health to Xi and prosperity for the two countries and their peoples, ending it with “Ganbei,” the Chinese equivalent of cheers. Xi responded in kind.After hosting Xi in the Kremlin for six hours, Putin accompanied him down the grand staircase. They chatted and shook hands, and Putin stood on the pavement for a moment, waving his hand as Xi’s limo drove away.Prior to attending the Kremlin talks, Xi met with Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin. Unlike them, Russian and Chinese officials who attended the talks wore medical masks — a reminder of the COVID-19 pandemic that halted mutual visits.Xi briefly referred to it, telling Mishustin he was happy to be back in Moscow after a long break because of the pandemic. He said that he invited Putin over Monday’s dinner to visit China later this year to attend a top-level meeting of China’s Belt and Road regional initiative.Xi stayed at a brand-new Chinese-owned Soluxe Hotel set in a lavish riverside park in northern Moscow that features trees and plants from all over China. He used a Chinese-made Hongqi limousine for driving around Moscow.Palestinians building neighborhood for terrorists in Samaria-For they cannot rest until they do evil; they are robbed of sleep till they make someone stumble.Proverbs 4:16-Terror Watch-March 16, 2023-A luxurious neighborhood for Palestinian terrorists is being built on a mountain in Samaria.The residential neighborhood will feature 100 detached homes (“villas” in local parlance) exclusively for Palestinians who served at least five years in Israeli prisons for terrorism-related offenses, Channel 12 reported.The site is northeast of Ramallah in Area B of Judea and Samaria, which makes up about 22% of the territory under the terms of the Oslo Accords. Area B is under Palestinian Authority civil control and Israeli security control.Behind the project is the Al Karma Corporation for Housing Prisoners association, whose members are Palestinian terrorists who have served in Israeli prisons and their family members. According to the report, the executive committee includes Abla Sa’adat, the wife of Ahmad Sa’adat, the secretary-general of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine. Also on the executive committee is Naim El Sharif, the father of Hamas terrorist Imad El Sharif.The area of the neighborhood near the terrorist hotbed of Silwad and in the heart of a triangle of three Israeli communities—Ofra, Ateret and Shiloh—has seen numerous attacks in recent years. It overlooks Route 60, the main north-south highway of Judea and Samaria, and is near the British Police Junction, where a Palestinian sniper in 2002 killed seven Israeli soldiers and three civilians, and wounded six others, at an IDF checkpoint.“Unfortunately, the general security concept led by the senior officers does not match the threats. The task of curbing terrorism is much greater than the pursuit of weapons and includes an iron hand against the perpetrators of terrorism in the Palestinian Authority. The opposite path is to allow the perpetrators of terrorism to establish a neighborhood and expand,” said Israel Gantz, chairman of the Binyamin Regional Council.
Clashes as retired Lebanese soldiers try to storm government HQ in protest-Violence comes amid widespread anger over the harsh economic conditions in the country, where mismanagement by the ruling class has been rampant for years-By Bassem Mroue-MAR 22,23-Today, 3:26 pm
BEIRUT (AP) — Lebanese security forces fired tear gas on Wednesday to disperse hundreds of protesters, mainly retired soldiers, who tried to break through the fence leading to the government headquarters in downtown Beirut.The violence came amid widespread anger over the harsh economic conditions in the country, where mismanagement by the ruling class has been rampant for years, preceding the economic meltdown that started in late 2019.The retired soldiers and policemen demanding better pay clashed with riot police and troops. Several people suffered breathing problems from the tear gas. The protesters hurled stones at the officers protecting the government headquarters and repeatedly tried to break through the fence.There was no immediate information about any injuries during the violence. The protest was called for by retired soldiers and depositors who have had limited access to their savings after local banks imposed informal capital controls amid the crisis.The controls restrict cash withdrawals from accounts to avoid folding amid currency shortages. People with dollar accounts can only withdraw small sums in Lebanese pounds, at an exchange rate far lower than that of the black market.Since early Wednesday, riot police and army special forces were deployed around the government headquarters, an Ottoman-era three-story building known as the Grand Serail of Beirut.The Lebanese pound hit a new low on Tuesday, selling for more than 143,000 pounds to the dollar before making some gains. The pound has lost more than 95% of its value over the past three years. The official rate is 15,000 pounds to the dollar.“My monthly salary is $40. How can I survive,” screamed a retired army officer.Most people in Lebanon get paid in Lebanese pounds and have seen the value of their salaries drop over the past years as the pound crashed.With trust in the pound declining, most grocery stores, restaurants and other businesses have opted to start pricing their goods and services in dollars. While this “dollarization” aims to ease inflation and stabilize the economy, it also threatens to push more people into poverty and deepen the crisis.Lebanon, a small Mediterranean nation of 6 million people, including 1 million Syrian refugees, is in the grips of the worst economic and financial crisis in its modern history, rooted in decades of corruption and mismanagement by a political class that has ruled the country since the end of the 1975-90 civil war.The political class has also resisted the implementation of reforms demanded by the international community. Since the economic meltdown began, three-quarters of the population, which includes 1 million Syrian refugees, now lives in poverty and inflation is soaring.Lebanon has also stalled on reforms agreed to with the International Monetary Fund to enable access to $3 billion in a bailout package and unlock funds in development aid to make the economy viable again.
Saudi Arabia declares Ramadan to start Thursday-Authorities earlier in the day called on residents to try to spot the crescent moon that marks the start of the holy month-By AFP-21 March 2023, 7:33 pm
Saudi Arabia, home of the holiest shrines in Islam in Mecca and Medina, has announced that the fasting month of Ramadan will start on Thursday.The kingdom’s supreme court ruled on Tuesday evening that the Islamic calendar month of Shaban, which precedes Ramadan, will end on Wednesday, meaning Ramadan will begin the following day, the official Saudi Press Agency reported.Authorities earlier on Tuesday called on residents to try to spot the crescent moon that marks the start of Ramadan, but it was not visible, state media said.The official Crescent Sighting Committee in neighboring Qatar also announced that Thursday “is the first day of the blessed month of Ramadan,” the official Qatar News Agency said on Twitter.The daytime fasting month of Ramadan is one of the five pillars of Islam.Observant Muslims refrain from eating and drinking from dawn to dusk, and traditionally gather with family and friends to break their fast in the evening.Fasting is strictly observed in Saudi Arabia, with restaurants closed until sunset iftar meals.It is also a time of prayers, with the faithful converging in large numbers at mosques, especially at night.The starting date of Ramadan, the holiest Muslim month, is set by both lunar calculations and physical sightings to determine the beginning of a new month.
Kyiv says it is frustrated with pace of delivery on Israeli promises-Ukraine insists it still has not been told how to access $200 million loan guarantee; Israeli diplomats say Monday meeting was friendly, projects moving ahead-By Lazar Berman-21 March 2023, 3:17 pm
Kyiv is growing frustrated over Israel’s failure to deliver on promises of aid it made in recent weeks, according to Ukrainian officials.Israel’s Ambassador to Ukraine Michael Brodsky met in Kyiv Monday with Maksym Subkh, Ukraine’s special envoy to the Middle East, for a political consultation that was initially portrayed as a Ukrainian reprimand in Israeli media.“It was a discussion of fulfilling initial agreements,” a Ukrainian official told The Times of Israel on Tuesday.A central issue in the meeting was the $200 million in loan guarantees for healthcare and civilian infrastructure pledged by Foreign Minister Eli Cohen in Kyiv last month.“He could not explain how we can use it,” said the Ukrainian official.Kyiv also pressed Brodsky on Israel allowing more wounded Ukrainian soldiers into the country for treatment. “There was no answer,” lamented the Ukrainian official.Subkh sought answers on Israeli help on civilian de-mining, but was frustrated by the lack of clarity there as well.Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has thus far continued his predecessors’ policy of refusing to offer Ukraine defensive weapons to counter Russian attacks, though he is shifting Israel slightly in Kyiv’s direction. Cohen’s visit was one such indication of the move.During his February visit, Cohen also announced that Israel would “assist Ukraine with developing a smart early warning system.” The airstrike warning system would be similar to the technology Israel uses to warn civilians of rocket attacks.Israeli officials presented a very different picture than did their Ukrainian counterparts, insisting that the aid Cohen committed to is moving forward.“It is being worked on,” a Foreign Ministry official told The Times of Israel. “The projects are in the pipeline, but they take time.”Israel’s Ambassador to Ukraine Michael Brodsky. (Israeli Embassy in Ukraine)-Israel rejected the reports on Monday about Brodsky being summoned for a reprimand.“It’s simply not true,” said an Israeli official. “It was a normal follow-up meeting.”The official also denied reports in Ukrainian media that Kyiv expressed its displeasure over Israel not recognizing the Russian paramilitary Wagner Group as a terrorist organization, despite Jerusalem asking Ukraine to list the Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps as such.“Wagner wasn’t raised,” insisted the Israeli official.Instead, the Ukrainians wanted to understand the mechanism through which they can access the loan assurance, and wanted updates on the civilian missile early warning system, according to the Israeli version of the meeting.“It takes time to adapt it to Ukraine’s needs,” said the Israeli official, emphasizing that it would not be ready to be deployed for at least “a couple more months.”A Ukrainian team is in Poland to work on the system with Israeli defense officials.The system needs to be adapted to warn of incoming Russian ballistic missiles, whereas in Israel it is used to alert citizens primarily to short-range rockets.Israel is still working with Ukraine to understand its priorities in terms of humanitarian aid, said the official.Though Israel still does not have a state budget, it approved a special budget in January for humanitarian aid to Ukraine.A Ukrainian official acknowledged that the tone of the meeting with Brodsky was friendly, but that does not mean Kyiv is satisfied. “You can yell or you can speak nicely, but that doesn’t change the facts.”“Unfortunately we are in a war,” the official continued, “and our wartime diplomacy is slightly different than our peacetime one.”
As Israel-Arab ties chill, one regional cooperation confab avoids chopping block-Experts, private sector executives from Israel, West Bank and nearly a dozen Muslim countries meet in Abu Dhabi to discuss joint ventures in field of food and water security-By Jacob Magid-21 March 2023, 8:44 pm
In just three months, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s new hardline government has managed to chill relations that he helped kindle less than three years ago with the signing of the Abraham Accords.His invitation to visit the United Arab Emirates was rescinded, Negev Forum gatherings have ground to a halt, and not a week has gone by without one of Israel’s Arab neighbors issuing a fierce condemnation of the his government — be it for National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir’s visit to the Temple Mount, deadly IDF raids in the West Bank, advancement of settlement construction and outpost legalization, or incendiary remarks by Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich, who on March 1 called to wipe out a Palestinian town and on Sunday claimed the Palestinian people don’t exist while standing behind a map of “Greater Israel” that included modern-day Jordan.Despite that backdrop, one gathering did take place last week in Abu Dhabi, bringing together experts and private sector executives from Israel, the West Bank and nearly a dozen Arab and Muslim countries — including ones that don’t have diplomatic ties with Jewish state — to discuss cooperation in water and food security.The conference was organized by the Atlantic Council and the Jeffrey M. Talpins Foundation’s N7 Initiative, which seeks to broaden and deepen normalization between Israel and Arab and Muslim countries.It was the second such N7 gathering, coming three months after experts from a similar list of countries met in Morocco to discuss joint ventures in the field of education and coexistence. Both track-two N7 confabs were intended to mirror the focus of a different Negev Forum “working group” — the track-one teams of government officials that met in January to discuss regional projects in water and food security, education and coexistence, regional security, tourism and energy.N7 director Dan Shapiro speculated that his initiative’s conference was able to move forward with the UAE’s blessing, despite the “caution that has crept into the posture” of Israel’s new Arab neighbors because of the apolitical nature of the topic, along with the fact that participants were largely from non-governmental organizations.“The current environment is probably not one in which you’d expect new countries like Saudi Arabia to join [the Abraham Accords], given what’s happening in Israel and between Israel and Palestinians,” explained Shapiro, who previously served as US ambassador to Israel.Just a week before the N7 gathering, the UAE asked the US embassy in Abu Dhabi to hold off on an event for journalists from Abraham Accords countries, according to US and Emirati officials. N7 organizers also invited government officials from participant Arab countries to take part in its conference last week but received no affirmative responses, according to two sources familiar with the matter.Nonetheless, “it’s interesting that [Abraham Accords countries] see value in the convening ability of a bipartisan think tank in Washington to sustain and in some ways even expand contacts between Israeli and Arab experts,” he said.“It tells me that they still see value in finding channels where constructive work to build a more integrated region can continue.”Shapiro said the goal of the gathering was to provide ideas to the official Negev Forum working group on food and water security for when it next meets. Such was the case when the education and coexistence working group met in January and discussed some of the proposals that were born out of the N7 conference on the same topic last year in Morocco.However, N7 proposals can also be taken on by smaller groups of countries, who prefer not to wait for initiatives to make their way through the slower bureaucratic process required in the Negev Forum, Shapiro noted. “Maybe it’s a private sector-funded or philanthropically funded initiative, which only later governments decide to take a look at once it’s up and running. We think we’re complementary to the Negev Forum working groups, but not exclusively that.”Shapiro was hesitant to offer details of the proposals for regional projects on water and food security that were discussed at last week’s N7 conference but summarized them as “attempts to take either technologies, strategies or policies that have proven themselves to be effective in at least one country… and tailor them so they can be applied more broadly across the seven countries” — Israel, the UAE, Bahrain, Morocco, Egypt, Jordan and Sudan.The ideas discussed included irrigation techniques, food storage, prevention of food waste and trade liberalization, he said.In addition to the seven member countries, there were also Palestinian experts in attendance as well as representatives from Tunisia and Indonesia — which don’t have formal ties with Israel. Water and food security experts from the West African country of Burkina Faso, which does have ties with Israel, were also present. However, organizers declined to share the identities of participants, ostensibly due to concerns some might have over the publication of their cooperation with Israel.Still, Shapiro expressed his desire to see the initiative grow. “We hope N7 will eventually become N8, 9, or 10.”
Killing of Kurds in northern Syria sparks protests, tensions-Thousands take to streets after four Syrian Kurds killed by Turkish-backed armed group in town of Jinderis as they celebrated Nowruz holiday-By GHAITH ALSAYED-21 March 2023, 7:08 pm
JINDERIS, Syria (AP) — Thousands of Kurds took to the streets of the earthquake-ravaged Syrian town of Jinderis on Tuesday to protest the killing of four men as they lit a fire to celebrate the Kurdish new year the night before.The attack on the Kurdish men rekindled tensions between Turkish-backed armed groups controlling the area and Kurdish residents. It fed into a power struggle between rival armed factions that control different parts of northwest Syria.At the request of Kurdish residents, fighters from the armed opposition group Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) deployed en masse around Jinderis on Tuesday. The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, an opposition war monitor, reported that the group had taken over the headquarters of the Ahrar Sharqiya group, a Turkish-backed armed opposition group, in the area.A HTS spokesperson declined to comment on the matter, but there was a heavy presence of the group’s fighters in and around the city as crowds of Kurds attended the funerals of the victims. Meanwhile, Turkish forces deployed on the road linking the town of Atmeh, controlled by HTS, with Jinderis.The assailants who shot the Kurdish men as they were lighting a fire in celebration of the Nowruz holiday allegedly belonged to Jaish al-Sharqiya, a splinter group of Ahrar Sharqiya.The Syrian National Army, an alliance of the various Turkish-backed factions in the area, issued a statement condemning the killing of the Kurdish men in “the strongest possible terms” and promising to bring the perpetrators to justice.Jinderis was controlled by Kurdish fighters until 2018 when it was taken by Turkey-backed opposition fighters who still hold it. The capture of the town displaced many Kurds, while those who remained complain that they are often mistreated and subjected to discrimination.“We call for an end to these violations and an end to the demographic change,” said Zakaria Ali, one of the Kurdish protesters. “All the Syrian people are our brothers, but criminals are not.”In the hours after the shooting, some Kurds from Jinderis traveled in a convoy to the town of Atmeh, about 9 miles (15 kilometers) away, where they called on HTS to seize control of Jinderis from the Turkish-backed militias.While Hayat Tahrir al-Sham is designated as a terrorist group by the US and other Western countries due to its historical ties with al-Qaida, many Kurdish residents of the area said they see it as preferable to the Turkish-backed groups.HTS leader Abu Mohammed al-Golani met with a group of the victims’ families late Monday evening and promised revenge.“The ones who harmed you will be killed, God willing,” Golani told the group.Clashes between Turkey-backed opposition gunmen and Kurdish fighters have left scores of people dead on both sides in Syria.Since 2016, Turkey has launched three major operations inside Syria, targeting Syria’s main Kurdish militia — the People’s Protection Units or YPG — which Turkey considers a terrorist organization and an extension of the outlawed Kurdistan Workers’ Party, or PKK.The PKK has for decades waged an insurgency within Turkey against the government in Ankara.The YPG, however, forms the backbone of US-led forces in the fight against Islamic State militants and has been a top American ally in Syria.
Security forces gear up for Ramadan as tensions remain high in Jerusalem, West Bank-Police say more officers to be deployed around Old City for Friday prayers during Muslim holy month, warn of terror groups inciting violence; IDF preemptively arrests instigators-By Emanuel Fabian-21 March 2023, 10:10 am
Israeli security forces are once again gearing up for the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, which coincides with the Jewish holiday of Passover this year, with tension already high across the West Bank and in Jerusalem.Police anticipate hundreds of thousands of visitors — mainly Palestinians — will come to Jerusalem during Ramadan, a month of fasting, prayer and reflection observed by Muslims worldwide, which is expected to begin Wednesday or Thursday and end April 21.Ramadan has often been marked by clashes and high tension between Israel and the Palestinians.Israeli and Palestinian Authority delegations reconvened Sunday for a relatively rare, albeit low-stakes, regional summit in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt, where they recommitted to de-escalating tensions ahead of Ramadan.Top defense officials, meanwhile, have warned the government about an increase in alerts of potential Palestinian terror attacks during the sensitive period.Some officials have warned that the upcoming Ramadan may be the most difficult to handle in years, as tensions remained high amid a cycle of deadly Israeli raids in the West Bank and deadly Palestinian terror attacks, as well as an uptick in settler violence.According to the Haaretz daily, during a recent meeting with Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, military officials said Israel’s ongoing internal unrest, the declining popularity of the Palestinian Authority, a rise in nationalist Jewish attacks, and the actions of National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir are all contributing to a highly volatile state in the West Bank.A string of Palestinian attacks in Israel and the West Bank in recent months have left 15 people — almost all of them Israelis — dead and several more seriously hurt. Many of the attacks have occurred in the capital and were carried out by Palestinian residents of East Jerusalem.At least 85 Palestinians have been killed since the beginning of the year, most of them while carrying out attacks or during clashes with security forces, though some were uninvolved civilians and others were killed under circumstances that are being investigated.Some military officials are worried about the high Palestinian death toll, which at this rate is set to surpass last year’s toll of 158, the highest since 2007.The Israel Defense Forces assesses that the more Palestinians are killed during clashes, the greater the likelihood of others joining the “cycle of violence” and potentially carrying out terror attacks against Israelis.The IDF in recent weeks has conducted “preemptive” arrests of dozens of Palestinians identified as instigators of violence, and they are expected to remain held during Ramadan. Other wanted Palestinians who were allegedly planning terror attacks have been killed or arrested during recent raids.Police warned Sunday of “those who try to take advantage of the holidays to spread incitement on social media, false rumors and disinformation, in particular in relation to the holy places.”Police said terror groups and other terror elements have in the past used Ramadan to incite and cause rioting in Jerusalem.Law enforcement officials said police would act “without compromise against rioters and those breaking the law, who harm or attempt to harm those who pray and celebrate, or who use the holidays to harm civilians or security forces.”Officials at the police’s Jerusalem district held meetings in recent days with various local officials and community leaders to coordinate the holiday activities in the capital. IDF officials have held similar meetings with Palestinian officials in the West Bank in recent weeks.Police said that on Fridays during Ramadan, there would be an increased presence of police officers throughout Jerusalem, especially in the Old City and near the Temple Mount, as numerous worshipers are expected to pray at the Al-Aqsa Mosque. A police official told reporters that the Jerusalem district has a shortfall of over 800 police officers to properly ensure security.For Palestinian Muslims, worship at the Al-Aqsa Mosque — the third-holiest site in Islam — is a central part of the festival. Jews revere the same hilltop as the Temple Mount, the holiest site in their tradition.The Israeli army has eased some restrictions on movement for West Bank and Gazan Palestinians to allow women, children, and some men to pray at Al-Aqsa without permits.Police said they are also preparing for Passover and Easter, which will take place during Ramadan this year.“The purpose of the preparation and police activity in Jerusalem during Ramadan is to enable freedom of worship… while maintaining security, law and public order,” a police statement said.“Police will act to secure all the worshipers who arrive at the holy places on these days, Muslims, Jews and Christians, with the aim of allowing everyone freedom of worship,” the statement added.

26 detained in overnight arrest raids-IDF prepares to raze home of terrorist who killed Israeli brothers in Huwara-Troops enter West Bank city of Nablus to take measurements of building where Hamas member Abdel Fattah Hussein Kharousha, accused of February 26 attack, lived
By Emanuel Fabian-MAR 22,23-Today, 8:20 am
The Israeli military early Wednesday morning made preparations for the demolition of the home of a Palestinian terrorist who carried out a deadly shooting attack in the West Bank town of Huwara last month, killing two Israeli brothers.On February 26, Abdel Fattah Hussein Kharousha, 49, a member of the Hamas terror group, shot and killed Hallel Yaniv, 21, and Yagel Yaniv, 19, as they drove through Huwara.Kharousha fled the scene and was killed during an Israeli raid in Jenin on March 7.In the predawn hours of Wednesday morning, the Israel Defense Forces said troops measured Kharousha’s home — the first step before its potential demolition — in the West Bank city of Nablus.The IDF said “the mapping was carried out for the purpose of examining the possibility of demolishing the home, according to decisions that will be made.”Palestinian media reports claimed Kharousha’s son, Qassam, was detained during the raid early Wednesday. During the March 7 operation to kill Kharousha, troops also raided Nablus and arrested two other sons, Khaled and Muhammed Kharousha, the IDF said at the time.Abdel Fattah Hussein Kharousha, 49, accused of carrying out the deadly terror attack in Huwara, seen wearing Hamas paraphernalia. Kharousha was killed in an IDF raid on March 7, 2023. (Twitter; used in accordance with Clause 27a of the Copyright Law)The military said that during the entry to Nablus on Wednesday to measure the home of the terrorist, Palestinian gunmen opened fire at Israeli troops and other hurled explosives. Soldiers returned fire, the IDF said.There were no reports of Palestinians hurt amid the clashes.Israel regularly demolishes the homes of Palestinians accused of carrying out deadly terror attacks as a matter of policy. The efficacy of the policy has been hotly debated even within the Israeli security establishment, while human rights activists denounce the practice as unjust collective punishment.Tensions have soared in the West Bank, with the IDF pressing on with near-nightly raids amid a series of deadly Palestinian terror attacks.In arrest raids early Wednesday, the IDF said troops detained 26 wanted Palestinians, suspected of involvement in terror activities.Palestinian attacks in Israel and the West Bank in recent months have left 15 people dead — almost all of them Israelis — and several more seriously hurt.At least 85 Palestinians have been killed since the beginning of the year, most of them while carrying out attacks or during clashes with security forces, though some were uninvolved civilians and others were killed under circumstances that are being investigated.
Israeli airstrikes hit Aleppo airport for second time in weeks — Syrian media-No reports of casualties in early morning attack, which has forced runway in northern Syrian city to close again-By Emanuel Fabian and ToI Staff-MAR 22,23-Today, 5:06 am
The Israeli Air Force allegedly carried out an airstrike at the airport in the northern Syrian city of Aleppo in the early hours of Wednesday morning, according to Syria’s state-run media outlet.There were no immediate reports of casualties, but the state news agency, SANA, said some damage had been caused at the airport. It was the second time Aleppo International Airport has been hit in recent weeks.According to an official notice sent by Syrian aviation authorities, known as a NOTAM, the runway at the airport was closed.SANA, citing a military source, said the Israeli fighter jets launched several missiles at the airport from over the Mediterranean sea, causing explosions to be heard in other regions.Two unnamed “regional intelligence sources” speaking to the Reuters news agency said the airstrike also targeted an underground munitions depot at the adjacent Nairab military airport. The sources said the site was used to store missile-guided systems that had been delivered by Iranian cargo flights.There was no comment from the Israel Defense Forces, in line with its policy of not generally commenting on air raids in Syria. Israel is believed to have carried out hundreds of strikes on targets inside government-controlled parts of Syria in recent years, including attacks on the Damascus and Aleppo airports, but it rarely acknowledges or discusses the operations.Israel has acknowledged, however, that it targets bases of Iran-allied groups, such as Lebanon’s Hezbollah, which has sent thousands of fighters to support Syrian President Bashar Assad’s forces. Israel views Iran’s expansion throughout Syria as a continued threat to its national security, and has conducted strikes across a broad range of targets in an effort to curb Iran’s forces in the region.Aleppo International was hit with airstrikes attributed to Israel earlier this month and forced to shut its runway for several days.Days later, Israel carried out a rare daytime strike against targets in northwestern Syria, injuring three soldiers and causing damage, the state-run broadcaster SANA said.Aleppo, which suffered widespread destruction in Syria’s civil war, was heavily damaged in the deadly 7.8-magnitude earthquake that hit Turkey and Syria last month. A number of countries have since sent aid shipments to the city’s airport, including Iran, an ally of Syria.Iran and Syria called the airstrike against the airport earlier this month a “crime against humanity.”In January, the Syrian army said Israel’s military fired missiles toward the Damascus international airport, putting it out of service temporarily and killing two soldiers. That attack came amid Israeli fears the Damascus airport was being used to funnel Iranian weaponry into the country.Last August, Syria accused Israel of being behind two consecutive airstrikes at Aleppo International Airport and a site near the Damascus Airport, as Israel was said to be ramping up its efforts to target airports to counter Tehran’s growing use of commercial flights to bring military supplies into the country.
In London, FM Cohen signs agreement laying out future of UK-Israel ties-2030 Roadmap plan completed after years of preparation; foreign minister heads to Warsaw to complete pact on returning Israeli youth Holocaust tours-By Lazar Berman-MAR 22,23-Today, 1:52 am
Foreign Minister Eli Cohen and British Foreign Secretary James Cleverly signed an agreement in London on Tuesday setting the agenda for bilateral economic, security and technology ties.According to the UK’s Foreign Office, the 2030 Roadmap for UK-Israeli Bilateral Relations “contains detailed commitments for deepening cooperation across the breadth of the Israel-UK relationship, including on trade, cyber, science and tech, research and development, security, health, climate and gender.”Per the roadmap, a particular focus will be placed on technological innovation, with around 20 million British pounds ($24.5 million) of joint funding committed in the agreement.London, which will chair the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance in 2024, also committed in the agreement to work closely with Israel to fight antisemitism.“On trade, tech and security, our two countries are taking full advantage of these opportunities,” Cleverly said on Twitter after the meeting.The process of laying out the nature of the bilateral relationship began in November 2021, almost two years after the UK left the European Union. Then-foreign minister Yair Lapid signed a memorandum of understanding with his British counterpart at the time, Liz Truss, saying the agreement would lead to a free trade deal, increased security cooperation and joint development of high-tech projects.The agreement was meant to be signed during Cleverly’s planned trip to Israel last month, but that visit was postponed indefinitely because of scheduling issues. Since then, the British have been looking for the earliest opportunity to get the pact signed. Cohen’s one-day visit fit the bill.Also last month, Cleverly wrote in a letter that the British government has no intention of working with far-right National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir. But he also wrote that the UK was looking forward to working with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government to “strengthen our excellent bilateral ties.”According to the Israeli readout of their meeting, Cohen and Cleverly spoke at length about the Iranian threat and agreed that if Iran continues to enrich uranium to levels forbidden by its tattered agreement with world powers, the international community must ensure that there are severe consequences. Tehran is allowed to enrich only to 3.67%, but uranium enriched to almost 84%, near weapons-grade, was recently discovered.“Israel and the UK agree that Iran cannot be allowed to attain a nuclear weapon,” Cohen said after the meeting.On Monday, the UK announced sanctions on five members of the Board of Directors of the Iran Revolutionary Guards Corps foundation responsible for managing the IRGC’s investments. It also imposed sanctions on two senior IRGC commanders.The UK — a permanent member of the United Nations Security Council — is part of the so-called E3, the European powers who are party to the 2015 nuclear deal, along with the US, Russia, and China. The agreement fell apart after the US withdrew in 2018 under former president Donald Trump, and negotiations to revive it have since stalled.Netanyahu will fly to London on Thursday for a weekend visit that will include a meeting with British premier Rishi Sunak.During his visit, Cohen also sought to create new ties between Israeli financial technology companies and the British banking sector.He visited Visa’s European headquarters and spoke about opportunities in the Israeli market. He also held an event with British banking executives and Israeli financial technology leaders from OurCrowd, Data Harbour, Next Dim, Surf Security, Jifity, and Open Finance.Warsaw pact-Cohen is set to fly to Warsaw on Tuesday night, and will meet with Polish Foreign Minister Zbigniew Rau on Wednesday to finalize a deal to end disagreements over the content and security protocol for the youth Holocaust study trips to Poland for Israeli students.The countries have been locked in conflict over the trips for several years. The Foreign Ministry previously said the Polish government was trying to control the Holocaust studies curriculum taught to the Israeli students.The agreement was finalized last Thursday after a delegation led by Foreign Ministry Director General Ronen Levi flew to Warsaw to meet with its Polish counterparts. The group included officials from the foreign and education ministries, and the Shin Bet security agency.News of the agreement emerged in early March. Netanyahu hailed the deal, saying that “the lessons of the Holocaust can be learned in many ways, but there is nothing better than seeing for yourself.”Poland’s government has been engaged in ongoing efforts to minimize Polish responsibility for the persecution of Jews on its territory during the Holocaust, while scholars say there was significant cooperation by Poles with the Nazi regime.Young Jewish Israelis traditionally travel to Poland in the summer between 11th and 12th grade, touring former Nazi camps in order to learn about the Holocaust and memorialize those murdered. The trip has long been considered a rite of passage in Israeli education and, prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, some 40,000 Israeli students participated each year.The two erstwhile allies have also been in a diplomatic spat since July 2021 over Poland’s legislature passing a law effectively cutting off any future restitution to the heirs of property seized by the Nazis during the Holocaust.Israel recalled its envoy to Warsaw for consultations the following month. Lapid advised Poland’s ambassador to Israel to remain on vacation in his homeland, and instructed Israel’s new ambassador to Poland, Ya’acov Livne, to remain in Israel.Since then, the two sides have slowly de-escalated tensions over the issue. Livne took up his post in Warsaw in February 2022 to coordinate Israeli efforts to extract citizens from Ukraine and to provide aid to Kyiv. Two Polish lawmakers visited the Knesset in June, the first to do so since 2017.Despite promises in July from Poland’s President Andrzej Duda to return its envoy to Israel, he has yet to do so
US to speed up delivery of Abrams tanks to Ukraine-Pentagon says it will old send older model of tank rather than building new ones to ship, with aim of getting them to Ukrainian forces by the fall-By Lolita C. Baldor-21 March 2023, 10:35 pm
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Pentagon is speeding up its delivery of Abrams tanks to Ukraine, opting to send a refurbished older model that can be ready faster, with the aim of getting the 70-ton battle powerhouses to the war zone by the fall, the Pentagon said Tuesday.The original plan was to send Ukraine 31 of the newer M1A2 Abrams, which could have taken a year or two to build and ship. But officials said the decision was made to send the older M1A1 version, which can be taken from Army stocks. Officials said the M1A1 also will be easier for Ukrainian forces to learn to use and maintain as they fight the invading Russian forces.“This is about getting this important combat capability into the hands of the Ukrainians sooner rather than later,” said Brig. Gen. Pat Ryder, the Pentagon press secretary.The Biden administration announced in January that it would send the tanks to Ukraine — after insisting for months that they were too complicated and too hard to maintain and repair. The decision was part of a broader political maneuver that opened the door for Germany to announce it would send its Leopard 2 tanks to Ukraine and allow Poland and other allies to do the same.Speaking at a Pentagon press conference, Ryder said the tanks will be refurbished and refitted to make them combat-ready for Ukraine. He declined to say where that work will be done.It’s unclear how soon the US would begin training Ukrainian forces on how to use, maintain and repair the tanks. The intention would be to have the training of the troops coincide with the refurbishment of the tanks, so that both would be ready for battle at the same time later this year, said US officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss details not publicly provided. The Pentagon will also have to ensure that Ukrainian forces have an adequate supply chain for all the parts needed to keep the tanks running.The Russian and Ukrainian forces have been largely in a stalemate, trading small slices of land over the winter. The fiercest battles have been in the eastern Donetsk region, where Russia is struggling to encircle the city of Bakhmut in the face of dogged Ukrainian defense. But both sides are expected to launch more intensive offensives in the spring.Asked about the timing of the tanks’ arrival, Ryder said the Abrams are part of the medium- and longer-term military support the US is providing to Ukraine. He said that as Ukrainian forces take or retake territory, they will also need to sustain those gains and deter Russia from regaining any footholds.During a visit to a tank plant in Lima, Ohio, in February, Army Secretary Christine Wormuth met with officials there at length to determine the best options for getting the tanks to Ukraine.“Part of it is figuring out — among the different options — what’s the best one that can allow us to get the Ukrainians tanks in as timely a fashion as we can,” without disrupting foreign military sales, Wormuth said at the time.Officials at the plant, which is owned by the Army and operated by Reston, Virginia-based General Dynamics, said production totals can vary, based on contract demands. And while they are currently building 15-20 armored vehicles per month, including tanks, they can easily boost that to 33 a month and could add another shift of workers and build even more if needed.Development of tanks for Ukraine would have to be squeezed in between the current contracts for foreign sales, which include 250 of the newest versions for Poland and about 75 for Australia. During Wormuth’s tour of the plant, workers were preparing to build an updated version of the vehicle for Poland.Ukrainian leaders have persistently pressed for the Abrams, which first deployed to war in 1991 and has thick armor, a 120 mm main gun, armor-piercing capabilities and advanced targeting systems. It runs on thick tracked wheels and has a 1,500-horsepower turbine engine with a top speed of about 42 miles per hour (68 kilometers per hour).

18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;
19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.
20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:
21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.

28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
30 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,

Maren Morris tells Tennessee to ‘f------ arrest’ her after introducing her toddler to drag queens-‘I introduced my son to some drag queens today, so Tennessee, f------ arrest me,' country star Maren Morris said Tuesday-By Jeffrey Clark | Fox News-MAR 21,23
Female country star tells Tennessee to ‘f------ arrest’ her after introducing her toddler to drag queensCountry star Maren Morris told her over 1.6 million fans on Instagram that she took her young, two-year-old son to meet drag queens in an unapologetic video.Maren Morris, a Texas-born country star, told the state of Tennessee to arrest her during a speech at a pro-LGBTQ concert just weeks after the state announced a ban on drag shows near schools."And yes, I introduced my son to some drag queens today, so Tennessee, f------ arrest me," Morris said Tuesday in the headline-making clip, winning her praise from The Washington Post, Variety, and a host of other liberal media outlets. Morris said her son, at just two-years-old, was excited to meet drag queens. Maren Morris told the state of Tennesse to "f------" arrest her during a speech at a pro-LGBTQ concert just weeks after the state announced a ban on drag shows near schools.Maren Morris told the state of Tennesse to "f------" arrest her during a speech at a pro-LGBTQ concert just weeks after the state announced a ban on drag shows near schools. (AP Photo/Sanford Myers)-"I brought my son here earlier today for soundcheck, and he’s turning three this week, and we got to go in the room where all the queens were getting ready and doing their makeup. And he freaked out when he went in there because it’s just magic what drag queens do," Morris explained, according to Variety."There’s wigs everywhere, and the smell of hairspray and wig glue; there’s glitter; everyone’s in a good mood," Morris added. "It’s just like a room of love. And we went back to my dressing room and my son is like, ‘I need the queens!’ I’m like, uh, you’re looking at her?" the singer said.Morris’ speech comes just weeks after Tennessee became the first state to pass legislation banning drag shows on public property and near schools. The state previously had restrictions in place against "adult-oriented businesses." Tennessee recently became the first state to pass legislation banning drag shows on public property and near schools.Tennessee recently became the first state to pass legislation banning drag shows on public property and near schools. ((Sarah Espedido/Orlando Sentinel/Tribune News Service via Getty Images))The country singer, famous for songs like "The Middle," also revealed in an Instagram story from Tuesday that she asked her stylist to put her in a suit on purpose "to demonstrate the subjectivity of drag and gender expression.""There’s a reason we feel powerful in a suit, but why? Is it our tinges of both the feminine and masculine being on public display? Is it just more comfortable than a dress? Or is it just hot and makes you feel like a d--- superhero?" Morris asked. Morris was performing at "Love Rising," a star-studded LGBTQ benefit concert. She was the "lone mainstream country act," according to The Tennessean. Other stars included singers and artists like Hayley Williams, Hozier, Becca Mancari and others. Morris was one of many celebrities to speak out in defense of drag shows after Tennessee banned such performances on public property and near schools. Drag star RuPaul claimed that drag queens were like "Marines" and on the front lines of the culture wars in a fiery video this month. "Bridesmaids" actress Melissa McCarthy also sparked controversy on Instagram after she defended drag queens in a post that argued Americans have "been entertained by drag queens" for their entire lives. Morris did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Fox News Digital.
Iron Dome intercepts Hamas drone flying over Gaza — IDF-Military says aircraft didn’t enter Israeli airspace, posed no threat to civilians-By Emanuel Fabian-MAR 22,23-Today, 11:38 am
The Iron Dome air defense system shot down an unmanned aircraft belonging to the Hamas terror group flying over the Gaza Strip on Wednesday, the Israel Defense Forces said.According to the IDF, the drone did not enter Israeli airspace, adding that the interceptor missiles were fired at the device while it was over Gaza.The drone “did not pose a threat to civilians in the area surrounding the Gaza Strip,” the IDF added.Palestinian media reported a large explosion over the southern Gaza city of Rafah.Israel typically does not interfere when Hamas conducts drone test flights, only when they are being flown out of the Strip. It was not immediately clear why it did so this time and the IDF provided no explanation.The Iron Dome was first used operationally to intercept a Hamas drone in May 2021, during an 11-day conflict with Palestinian terror groups in the Strip, known in Israel as Operation Guardian of the Walls. During the conflict, the system also mistakenly shot down an Israeli drone.Last May, the IDF shot down a drone over the Strip, and before that in November 2021, the IDF shot down a Hamas drone that was flown out to sea.Last month, the IDF launched Iron Dome interceptor missiles at what it thought was a drone over the Gaza Strip. The military later walked back on its claim of intercepting the device, and said it remained unclear if there had actually been a drone or other aerial target that needed intercepting.

20 And Isaac was forty years old (A BIBLE GENERATION NUMBER=1967 + 40=2007+) when he took Rebekah to wife, the daughter of Bethuel the Syrian of Padanaram, the sister to Laban the Syrian.
21 And Isaac intreated the LORD for his wife, because she was barren: and the LORD was intreated of him, and Rebekah his wife conceived.
22 And the children (2 NATIONS IN HER-ISRAEL-ARABS) struggled together within her; and she said, If it be so, why am I thus? And she went to enquire of the LORD.

ISAIAH 28:14-19 (THIS IS THE 7 YR TREATY COVENANT OF DANIEL 9:27)
14 Wherefore hear the word of the LORD, ye scornful men, that rule this people which is in Jerusalem.
15 Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves:
16 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste.17 Judgment also will I lay to the line, and righteousness to the plummet: and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding place.
18 And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it.
19 From the time that it goeth forth it shall take you: for morning by morning shall it pass over, by day and by night: and it shall be a vexation only to understand the report.
DANIEL 8:23-25
23 And in the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors are come to the full, a king (EU DICTATOR) of fierce countenance, and understanding dark sentences,(FROM THE OCCULT) shall stand up.
24 And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power:(SATANS POWER) and he shall destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper, and practise, and shall destroy the mighty and the holy people.
25 And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart, and by peace shall destroy many: he shall also stand up against the Prince of princes;(JESUS) but he shall be broken without hand.DANIEL 11:36-40
36 And the king shall do according to his will;(EU PRESIDENT) and he shall exalt himself, and magnify himself above every god, and shall speak marvellous things against the God of gods, and shall prosper till the indignation be accomplished: for that that is determined shall be done.
37 Neither shall he regard the God of his fathers,(THIS EU DICTATOR IS A EUROPEAN JEW) nor the desire of women, nor regard any god: for he shall magnify himself above all.
38 But in his estate shall he honour the God of forces:(HES A MILITARY GINIUS) and a god whom his fathers knew not shall he honour with gold, and silver, and with precious stones, and pleasant things.
39 Thus shall he do in the most strong holds (CONTROL HEZBOLLAH,AL-QUAIDA MURDERERS ETC) with a strange god, whom he shall acknowledge and increase with glory: and he shall cause them to rule over many,(HIS ARMY LEADERS) and shall divide the land for gain.
40 And at the time of the end shall the king of the south(EGYPT) push at him:(EU DICTATOR PROTECTING ISRAELS SECURITY) and the king of the north(RUSSIA) shall come against him like a whirlwind, with chariots, and with horsemen, and with many ships; and he shall enter into the countries, and shall overflow and pass over.

13 And it shall come to pass in that day, that a great tumult from the LORD shall be among them; and they shall lay hold every one on the hand of his neighbour, and his hand shall rise up against the hand of his neighbour.(1/2-3 BILLION DIE IN WW3)
