16  When I shall send upon them the evil arrows of famine, which shall be for their destruction, and which I will send to destroy you: and I will increase the famine upon you, and will break your staff of bread:
17  So will I send upon you famine and evil beasts,(WHEN RUSSIA/MUSLIMS GET DEFEATED THIER BODIES GET EATEN BY BIRDS,ANIMALS IN ISRAEL MIGRATION SEASON) and they shall bereave thee; and pestilence and blood shall pass through thee;(NUKES) and I will bring the sword upon thee.

9 Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, cruel both with wrath and fierce anger, to lay the land desolate: and he shall destroy the sinners thereof out of it.

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.

10 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thou hast lifted up thyself in height, and he hath shot up his top among the thick boughs, and his heart is lifted up in his height;
11 I have therefore delivered him into the hand of the mighty one of the heathen; he shall surely deal with him: I have driven him out for his wickedness.
12 And strangers, the terrible of the nations, have cut him off, and have left him: upon the mountains and in all the valleys his branches are fallen, and his boughs are broken by all the rivers of the land; and all the people of the earth are gone down from his shadow, and have left him.
13 Upon his ruin shall all the fowls of the heaven remain, and all the beasts of the field shall be upon his branches:
14To the end that none of all the trees by the waters exalt themselves for their height, neither shoot up their top among the thick boughs, neither their trees stand up in their height, all that drink water: for they are all delivered unto death, to the nether parts of the earth, in the midst of the children of men, with them that go down to the pit.(HELL).
15Thus saith the Lord GOD; In the day when he went down to the grave I caused a mourning: I covered the deep for him, and I restrained the floods thereof, and the great waters were stayed: and I caused Lebanon to mourn for him, and all the trees of the field fainted for him.
16 I made the nations to shake at the sound of his fall, when I cast him down to hell with them that descend into the pit: and all the trees of Eden, the choice and best of Lebanon, all that drink water, shall be comforted in the nether parts of the earth.
17They also went down into hell with him unto [them that be] slain with the sword; and [they that were] his arm, [that] dwelt under his shadow in the midst of the heathen.
18To whom art thou thus like in glory and in greatness among the trees of Eden? yet shalt thou be brought down with the trees of Eden unto the nether parts of the earth: thou shalt lie in the midst of the uncircumcised with [them that be] slain by the sword. This [is] Pharaoh and all his multitude, saith the Lord GOD.

EZEKIEL 32:17-32
17 It came to pass also in the twelfth year, in the fifteenth [day] of the month, [that] the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
18 Son of man, wail for the multitude of Egypt, and cast them down, [even] her, and the daughters of the famous nations, unto the nether parts of the earth, with them that go down into the pit.
19 Whom dost thou pass in beauty? go down, and be thou laid with the uncircumcised.
20 They shall fall in the midst of [them that are] slain by the sword: she is delivered to the sword: draw her and all her multitudes.
21 The strong among the mighty shall speak to him out of the midst of hell with them that help him: they are gone down, they lie uncircumcised, slain by the sword.
22 Asshur [is] there and all her company: his graves [are] about him: all of them slain, fallen by the sword:
23 Whose graves are set in the sides of the pit, and her company is round about her grave: all of them slain, fallen by the sword, which caused terror in the land of the living.
24 There [is] Elam (IRAN) and all her multitude round about her grave, all of them slain, fallen by the sword, which are gone down uncircumcised into the nether parts of the earth, which caused their terror in the land of the living; yet have they borne their shame with them that go down to the pit.
25 They have set her a bed in the midst of the slain with all her multitude: her graves [are] round about him: all of them uncircumcised, slain by the sword: though their terror was caused in the land of the living, yet have they borne their shame with them that go down to the pit: he is put in the midst of [them that be] slain.
26 There [is] Meshech, Tubal,(RUSSIA) (GERMANY, TURKEY) and all her multitude: her graves [are] round about him: all of them uncircumcised, slain by the sword, though they caused their terror in the land of the living.
27And they shall not lie with the mighty [that are] fallen of the uncircumcised, which are gone down to hell with their weapons of war: and they have laid their swords under their heads, but their iniquities shall be upon their bones, though [they were] the terror of the mighty in the land of the living.
28 Yea, thou shalt be broken in the midst of the uncircumcised, and shalt lie with [them that are] slain with the sword.
29 There [is] Edom,(JORDAN) her kings, and all her princes, which with their might are laid by [them that were] slain by the sword: they shall lie with the uncircumcised, and with them that go down to the pit.
30 There [be] the princes of the north, all of them, and all the Zidonians, which are gone down with the slain; with their terror they are ashamed of their might; and they lie uncircumcised with [them that be] slain by the sword, and bear their shame with them that go down to the pit.
31 Pharaoh shall see them, and shall be comforted over all his multitude, [even] Pharaoh and all his army slain by the sword, saith the Lord GOD.
32 For I have caused my terror in the land of the living: and he shall be laid in the midst of the uncircumcised with [them that are] slain with the sword, [even] Pharaoh and all his multitude, saith the Lord GOD.

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.

1 The burden of Damascus. Behold, Damascus is taken away from being a city, and it shall be a ruinous heap.
11  In the day shalt thou make thy plant to grow, and in the morning shalt thou make thy seed to flourish: but the harvest shall be a heap in the day of grief and of desperate sorrow.
12  Woe to the multitude of many people, which make a noise like the noise of the seas; and to the rushing of nations,(USELESS U.N) that make a rushing like the rushing of mighty waters!
13  The nations shall rush like the rushing of many waters: but God shall rebuke them, and they shall flee far off, and shall be chased as the chaff of the mountains before the wind, and like a rolling thing before the whirlwind.
14  And behold at evening tide trouble; and before the morning he is not.(ASSAD KILLED IN OVERNIGHT RAID) This is the portion of them that spoil us,(ISRAEL) and the lot of them that rob us.

SECOND ANGEL: The Middle East DR DOCTORIAN
Then Isawthat the second angel had a sickle in his hand,such asis used in harvesting. The second angelsaid, “Harvest time has come in Israel and the countries all the wayto Iran.” Isawthose countriesin a fewsplitseconds. “All of Turkey and those other countries that have refused me and refused my message of love shall hate each other and kill one another.” I saw the angel raise the sickle and come down on all the Middle East countries.I saw Iran, Persia, Armenia, Azerbaijan, all of Georgia – Iraq, Syria,Lebanon,Jordan, Israel, all of Asia Minor – full of blood. Isaw blood all over these countries. And I saw fire; nuclear weapons were used in many of those countries. Smoke rising from everywhere. Sudden destruction – men destroying one another. I heard these words, “Israel, Oh Israel, the great judgment has come.”The angel said, “The chosen, the church, the remnant, shall be purified. The Spirit of God shall prepare the children of God.” I saw fires rising to heaven.The angel said, “This is the final judgment My church shall be purified, protected and ready for the final day. Men will die from thirst. Watershall be scarce all over the Middle East. Rivers shall dry up, and men will fight for water in those countries.” The angelshowed me that the United Nationsshall be broken in pieces because of the crisisin the Middle East.

G7 threatens new sanctions if Iran sends Russia ballistic missiles-by AFP Staff Writers-Washington (AFP) Mar 15, 2024

G7 countries warned Iran on Friday that they will impose "significant" new sanctions if Tehran transfers ballistic missiles to Russia for use in Ukraine."We reiterate our call on third parties to immediately cease providing material support to Russia's illegal and unjustifiable war of aggression against Ukraine or face severe costs," the group, which includes the United States, Japan, Germany, France, Britain, Italy and Canada, said in a statement."Were Iran to proceed with providing ballistic missiles or related technology to Russia, we are prepared to respond swiftly and in a coordinated manner including with new and significant measures against Iran," the countries said.US Secretary of State Antony Blinken voiced his concerns during a visit in Vienna on Friday."We've sent very clear messages to Iran not to do it... And I think that the concern about that eventuality -- and the commitment to address it if necessary -- is very real and very strong," he told reporters.A senior US administration official told journalists that if Iran decides to sell ballistic missiles to Russia, the costs will far outweigh the benefits, saying the "transfer hasn't happened, but there's a real danger that it could."Among the steps that have been discussed is ending national airline Iran Air's flights to Europe, the official added, declining to provide details on other response options.The G7 previously denounced support from China and Iran for Russia's war in Ukraine in a statement issued on the second anniversary of the full-scale invasion of the country by Moscow's forces.They called on Iran to stop helping Russia's military and expressed concern on the transfer by Chinese businesses of weapons components and military equipment to Moscow.Ukrainian forces have been hit by ammunition shortages as additional funding for military aid to Kyiv remains stalled in the US Congress.Moscow has turned to Tehran as well as Pyongyang to obtain arms for use in Ukraine, while Russia has also massively ramped up its domestic arms production.

Russia orders more firepower against Ukraine naval drones-by AFP Staff Writers

Moscow (AFP) Mar 17, 2024-Russia on Sunday ordered increased firepower and training for the navy to counter the threat of Ukrainian air and naval drones after a series of strikes on Russian warships."There must be training for personnel every day. Training on how to repel attacks from the air and by uncrewed boats," Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu said in a statement during a visit to the Black Sea fleet in southern Russia.Shoigu "ordered the installation of additional firepower, large-calibre machine gun systems to defeat enemy drones," the defence ministry statement said.The Black Sea has been a vital battleground in the two-year conflict and Ukraine claims to have destroyed more than two dozen Russian ships.Moscow has moved many military vessels from its historic Sevastopol naval base in Crimea to the port of Novorossiysk further to the east, amid the spate of Ukrainian attacks.Ukrainian officials have talked up military success in the Black Sea at a time when their ground forces have often been forced back or on the defensive in eastern Ukraine.Ukraine's GUR military intelligence unit earlier this month released a video of what it said was an attack on the Sergei Kotov, a 94-metre (308-foot) Russian military patrol ship.The footage showed a naval drone approaching the side of the vessel, before a large explosion can be seen sending fire, smoke and debris into the sky.

NATO prepares for Russian threat in harsh Arctic-By Max DELANY

Badderen , Norway (AFP) Mar 11, 2024-Finnish conscript Atte Ohman readied himself aboard a US landing ship to storm a snow-swept Norwegian beach as part of a rapid response unit pushing out an invading enemy."There is a saying that 'if you want to keep the peace, you need to prepare for war'," the 19-year-old corporal told AFP, clutching his automatic rifle."That's what we're doing."The simulated assault on NATO's frigid Arctic fringe was part of its sprawling, four-month Steadfast Defender exercise -- the largest drills staged by the US-led military alliance since the Cold War.Swedish gunboats sped to shore, Italian paratroopers abseiled from helicopters, and French marines emerged on skis.The message was clear -- NATO is prepared to protect itself in the face of an increasingly aggressive Russia two years into the Kremlin's war on Ukraine.Last week the alliance got even larger as Sweden became its 32nd member almost a year after its Nordic neighbour Finland joined."We're signalling that we are ready to defend our territories and that's very important at the same time as strengthening our capabilities to operate together," Swedish Defence Minister Pal Jonson told AFP, after watching tanks from his country engage in a mock battle on the Norwegian-Finnish border."Right now the Russian ground forces are bogged down in Ukraine, but Russia has stated high ambitions to reconstitute itself and adapt its force posture."As Russia has begun turning the tide on outgunned Ukrainian troops, there have been warnings that Moscow could one day turn its sights on a member of the alliance.While the Kremlin's forces are depleted after heavy losses in Ukraine, Russia has switched its economy to war mode.Kyiv's western allies meanwhile have struggled to ramp up production of crucial weaponry, and support for Ukraine is wavering.Norway's defence chief Eirik Kristoffersen said the number of Russian forces stationed near his country is currently just one fifth of the number before Moscow's 2022 invasion of Ukraine."But on the maritime side, on the air side, and on the nuclear side, they've kept their forces intact in our region," he told AFP."You have this uncertainty about for how long they will continue to lose so much versus Ukraine and then how long will it take for them to rebuild their military."- Arctic focus -One increasingly crucial area of competition with Russia is the harsh Arctic region where the exercise was staged.Under President Vladimir Putin, Russia has ramped up its capabilities in the region where melting ice due to global warming looks set to open up vital shipping routes and resources.Now with the membership of Sweden and Finland, seven of the eight Arctic countries are in NATO and the allies say they're increasingly pushing to compete with Moscow in this vital region.The Arctic is becoming hugely strategic and "that's why Russia is investing here a lot, and China is also watching this area," said Finland's defence minister Antti Hakkanen."The Artic is a new focus area. We must invest in the capabilities to act here in the normal military fields but also in the intelligence side and other fields," he added.Rear Admiral David Patchell, deputy commander of the US Second Fleet, said a conservative estimate was that climate would open up resources worth $1 trillion in the region. At the same time, melting ice would mean the Artic would link oceans around the globe for navigation."We have to know how to work in the Arctic," he told AFP."We're playing catch-up but I would say we're cognisant of Russia's priority, and they are placing a significant priority on the Arctic."Testing troops and hardware from across NATO in punishing Arctic conditions is a key focus of these exericises with the alliance's Nordic members sharing their expertise."It's a very big shock to come into working conditions like this. We rarely see snow like this on a daily basis," said US marine corporal Joshua Maddox, who deployed from the temperate climes of North Carolina in the southern United States."The biggest challenge is just the mental aspect -- just being very prepared."The Steadfast Defender drill -- which involves warships sent from the US in a sign of Washington's commitment -- comes after Donald Trump rattled the foundations of the alliance.The former president, the Republican challenger to Joe Biden in November elections, warned last month that he would encourage Russia to attack members not meeting financial commitments.But soldiers and commanders on the ground insisted they remained focused on helping allies with any threat."If Putin decides to get ballsy and go off and do worse things than he's doing right now, I'm going to be back out here fixing these for us, for other countries, helping them out," said marine sergeant Joshua Perezchoa,standing next to a HIMARS missile launcher."The mission comes first."

N. Korea fires ballistic missiles as Blinken visits Seoul-by AFP Staff Writers

Seoul (AFP) Mar 18, 2024-North Korea fired multiple short-range ballistic missiles on Monday in what analysts said was a calculated move to grab attention as US Secretary of State Antony Blinken visits South Korea for talks.Blinken is attending the third Summit for Democracy and met President Yoon Suk Yeol in Seoul early Monday. He is also meeting his South Korean counterpart on the sidelines of the event, for discussions now likely to be dominated by the allies' efforts to counter threats from the nuclear-armed North.Washington and Seoul wrapped up one of their major annual joint military training exercises last week, prompting angry retorts and live-fire drills from nuclear-armed Pyongyang, which condemns all such exercises as rehearsals for invasion.Seoul's military said it had detected the launch of "multiple short-range ballistic missiles" early Monday, which flew around 300 kilometres (186 miles) before coming down into the East Sea, also known as the Sea of Japan."We are closely sharing relevant information with the US and Japan and are maintaining utmost readiness," the Joint Chiefs of Staff added.After meeting Yoon, Blinken "condemned the... launch of ballistic missiles by the DPRK and reaffirmed the United States' ironclad commitment to the ROK's security," Spokesperson Matthew Miller said, referring to North and South Korea by their official names.Japan's top government spokesman Yoshimasa Hayashi said the North had fired three short-range ballistic missiles, which landed outside of the country's EEZ and did not cause any damage.The launches come just days after Seoul and Washington's annual Freedom Shield drills, which this year involved double the number of troops, ended Thursday.Pyongyang this month warned that Seoul and Washington would pay a "dear price" over the drills, and later announced that North Korean leader Kim Jong Un had guided an artillery unit it says was capable of striking the South Korean capital."It's a highly calculated move timing-wise by Pyongyang to fire multiple missiles to show they are capable of doing such an act even when the top US diplomat is in town," Professor Choi Gi-il of military studies at Sangji University told AFP.North Korea typically stages missile launches "as a tit-for-tat" after US-South Korea joint drills, Han Kwon-hee of Korea Association of Defence Industry Studies told AFP.Blinken's presence only adds to their motivation, he said, as it "means more attention from Washington and adds pressure on host Seoul."- Boosting deterrence -Monday's ballistic missile test is the North's second this year, after Pyongyang launched one tipped with a manoeuvrable hypersonic warhead on January 14.Blinken landed in South Korea on Sunday afternoon ahead of the democracy summit, which runs from March 18 to 20 and will bring together government officials, NGOs and civil society members.Seoul is one of Washington's key regional allies, and the United States has stationed about 27,000 American soldiers in the South to help protect it against the nuclear-armed North.Conservative President Yoon has boosted ties with Washington and sought to bury the historical hatchet with former colonial power Japan to better guard against Pyongyang's threats.So far this year, Pyongyang has declared South Korea its "principal enemy", jettisoned agencies dedicated to reunification and outreach, and threatened war over "even 0.001 mm" of territorial infringement."While South Korea conducted defence training last week alongside international partners, Kim Jong-un personally supervised several military exercises, and now while Seoul hosts a summit of democracies, North Korea fires more missiles," said Leif-Eric Easley, a professor at Ewha University in Seoul."The Kim regime's one-upmanship aims to show strength to its domestic audience, suggest costs on the Korean Peninsula for Seoul's international security cooperation, and warn Washington against increasing pressure on Pyongyang."Blinken also met South Korean Foreign Minister Cho Tae-yul for discussions on boosting the alliance, as Washington and Seoul look to improve their so-called "extended deterrence" against North Korea.After Seoul, Blinken heads to the Philippines.

N. Korean leader unveils and 'drives' new battle tank-by AFP Staff Writers

Seoul (AFP) Mar 14, 2024-North Korea leader Kim Jong Un drove a "new-type main battle tank" while overseeing military training exercises, state media said Thursday, as Seoul and Washington wrap joint drills to improve deterrence.Wearing a black leather jacket, Kim saluted ranks of camouflage-uniformed troops, and watched live-fire "training march" exercises from a field command post, flanked by top generals, images published by state media showed.After he reviewed the tank crews, Kim "mounted a new-type main battle tank, seized the control lever and drove the tank himself", the official Korean Central News Agency reported.The KCNA report comes as Seoul and Washington hold the final day of their annual Freedom Shield exercises -- involving missile interception drills and air assault, among others.The nuclear-armed North has long condemned joint US-South Korea military drills, calling them rehearsals for an invasion. It has carried out weapons tests in the past as a response to previous joint exercises of this nature.Kim "expressed great satisfaction over the fact that the new-type main battle tank successfully demonstrated its very excellent striking power", the KCNA report said.The North Korean leader also stressed the "importance of the role and duty of tankmen in modern warfare", as well as the "need to organize intensive exercises simulating an actual war".Pyongyang last week warned that the South and the United States would pay a "dear price" over the Freedom Shield drills, and later announced that Kim had guided a large-scale artillery drill involving a unit that it said was capable of striking the South Korean capital.On Wednesday, South Korean Defense Minister Shin Won-sik visited the headquarters of the army's Special Warfare Command during the ongoing Washington-Seoul drills, which involved "mastering advanced combat skills".This included "clearing operations" inside North Korea's "key facilities" in case of an attack by Pyongyang."If Kim Jong Un wages war, you should become the world's strongest special warfare unit that quickly removes the enemy's leadership," Shin said during the visit.So far this year, the North has declared South Korea its "principal enemy", jettisoned agencies dedicated to reunification and outreach, and threatened war over "even 0.001 mm" of territorial infringement.

IDF says it destroyed part of one of longest Hamas tunnel networks in north Gaza-Military says underground network connects terrorists from north to south of Strip; soldier seriously injured Friday in fighting; PM vows Rafah op ‘will happen’
By Emanuel Fabian-and Agencies Today, 7:54 pm-MAR 17,24

The Israel Defense Forces said Sunday that it recently destroyed what it says is part of one of the longest Hamas tunnel networks, which connects Hamas battalions and brigades in northern and southern Gaza.Combat engineers of the 162nd Division, along with the elite Yahalom unit, demolished around 2.5 kilometers (a little more than 1.5 miles) of the tunnel network in northern Gaza, according to the IDF.The IDF also said Sunday that troops of the Nahal Brigade had killed some 18 Hamas operatives in the central Gaza Strip over the past day.The gunmen were killed with sniper fire and by the troops calling in tank shelling and airstrikes.In southern Gaza’s Khan Younis, the IDF said troops of the Givati Brigade spotted two Hamas operatives loading a motorbike with military gear and called in an airstrike. Another two gunmen approaching the troops were also killed in an airstrike, the military said.In Khan Younis, the 7th Armored Brigade killed several more Hamas operatives and seized weapons, the IDF said.In one incident, the IDF said the troops shelled a building from which anti-tank missiles were fired. The missile attack caused no injuries.A soldier from the 601st Battalion was seriously injured on Friday in fighting in the central Gaza Strip, the military stated. The soldier was taken to the hospital for medical treatment, and his family was informed.The Hamas-run health ministry in Gaza on Sunday said that the bodies of 92 people killed in Israeli airstrikes were brought to hospitals in Gaza in the past 24 hours. Hospitals also received 130 wounded, it said. The numbers could not be independently verified.At least 11 people from the Thabet family, including five children and one woman, were killed in an airstrike in Deir el-Balah city in central Gaza, according to the Palestinian Red Crescent Society and an Associated Press journalist. The body of an infant lay among the dead.A Palestinian girl, Leen Thabit, retrieving a white dress from under the rubble of a flattened house, cried as she told AFP that her cousin had been killed in the strike.“She’s dead. Only her dress is left,” Thabit said. “What do they want from us?”The ongoing war has driven most of Gaza’s 2.3 million people from their homes. A quarter of Gaza’s population is starving, according to the UN.Humanitarian aid airdrops by the US and other nations continue, while deliveries on a new sea route have begun, but aid groups say more ground routes and fewer Israeli restrictions on them are needed to meet humanitarian needs in any significant way.Israel says there is no limit to the amount of aid that can enter the Strip and has blamed aid groups for failing to properly distribute supplies.In the face of growing international criticism of the military campaign, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Sunday reiterated his determination to attack Hamas in Rafah and said that his government approved military plans for such an operation.“We will operate in Rafah. This will take several weeks, and it will happen,” he told the weekly cabinet meeting.Netanyahu’s office said Friday that he had approved military operational plans for an offensive in the southern Gaza city.Israel has said Rafah, where four Hamas battalions are deployed, remains Hamas’s last major stronghold in the Strip after the IDF operated in the north and center of the Palestinian enclave. It has said an offensive there is necessary to achieve the war’s goals and is not a question of “if” but “when.”The international community has expressed concerns about the humanitarian costs of a planned assault on Rafah, where about 1.4 million displaced Palestinians are sheltering. Israel has promised to evacuate the civilian population before the ground incursion, but has not publicized the details of where they will be moved.War erupted when Hamas-led terrorists rampaged through southern communities on October 7, slaughtering some 1,200 people, mostly civilians, and taking 253 captives to Gaza, where more than half remain. The devastating onslaught and the resulting Israeli offensive — aimed at eliminating Hamas and returning the hostages — have sparked fears of a regional conflagration.The Hamas-run Gaza health ministry says 31,645 people in the Strip have been killed in the fighting so far, a figure that cannot be independently verified, and includes those killed by the terror groups’ failed rocket launches and some 13,000 Hamas terrorists Israel says it has killed in battle. Israel also says it killed some 1,000 gunmen inside Israel on October 7.

PM blasts international community amid pressure over war: ‘Did you already forget Oct. 7?’By Lazar Berman-MAR 17,24

Speaking at the start of the weekly cabinet meeting, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu blasts those “in the international community who are trying to stop the war now, before all its goals are achieved.”Netanyahu’s Hebrew-language comments are likely a reference to calls last week for elections in Israel from US Senator Chuck Schumer, and growing criticism from the Biden White House over Netanyahu’s conduct of the war.The prime minister says that those who wants to stop the war do so “by making false accusations against the IDF, against the Israeli government and against the prime minister of Israel. They do this by trying to bring about elections now, in the midst of the war.”Turning to Israel’s “friends in the international community,” Netanyahu asks pointedly: “Is your memory so short? Did you forget so quickly October 7, the most terrible massacre committed against Jews since the Holocaust? Are you so quickly ready to deny Israel the right to defend itself against the monsters of Hamas? Did you lose your moral conscience so quickly?”He calls for international pressure to be put on Hamas and Iran, rather than Israel.“No amount of international pressure will stop us from realizing all the goals of the war: eliminating Hamas, releasing all our hostages and ensuring that Gaza will no longer pose a threat against Israel,” insists Netanyahu.“We must not give in to these pressures, and we will not give in to them,” Netanyahu stresses.He also promises that the IDF will operate in Rafah, “carefully.”“It will take a few weeks, and it will happen,” he says.“Those who say that the operation in Rafah will not happen are the same ones who said that we will not enter Gaza, that we will not operate in Shifa, that we will not operate in Khan Younis and that we will not resume fighting after the [weeklong November] ceasefire,” Netanyahu says.

IDF says fighter jets hit Hezbollah targets in four areas of south Lebanon-By Emanuel Fabian-MAR 17,24

The IDF says fighter jets carried out strikes on Hezbollah sites in four different areas of southern Lebanon.The targets included infrastructure and an observation post in Aitaroun, a building used by the terror group in Aalma ash-Shab, and observation posts in Ayta ash-Shab and Marwahin, according to the IDF.The IDF releases footage showing the strikes.

PM to German chancellor: If Hamas remains in Gaza it’ll ‘regroup and reconquer’German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, left, shakes hands with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, during a press conference in Jerusalem, March 17, 2024. (GPO)

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu holds a press conference with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz in Jerusalem, in which he says the two leaders had a”very serious conversation, an important conversation among friends.”“We also agreed that Hamas has to be eliminated,” Netanyahu says, noting that if the terror group is allowed to stay in Gaza it will “regroup and reconquer and, as they vowed, repeat the [October 7] massacre again and again and again.”During the meeting, Netanyahu says his German counterpart asked him to do more to protect civilians in Gaza amid the ongoing war and to allow more humanitarian aid for Palestinians enter the Strip.Netanyahu notes Israel’s efforts to protect civilians while Hamas uses them as human shields, as well as the challenges of distributing aid within the Strip amid urban warfare.On his third trip to Israel since war erupted with Hamas’s October 7 onslaught, the German chancellor says the hostages held by terror groups for over 160 days are in his country’s “thoughts and prayers.”“In these dark hours my country stands with the people of Israel. From day one our message has been clear,” he says, stressing Israel’s right to self defense. “By fighting Hamas terrorists Israel is fighting a legitimate goal.”However, he says that the Palestinian death toll is “extremely high, many would argue, much too high.”War erupted in Gaza after Hamas’s October 7 massacre, which saw some 3,000 terrorists burst across the border into Israel killing some 1,200 people and seizing 253 hostages, mostly civilians, many amid horrific acts of brutality and sexual assault.

French paper: Former MK Azmi Bishara ‘strongly influenced’ Paris outline-By ToI Staff-MAR 17,24

French daily Le Figaro reports that former Balad MK Azmi Bishara played a role in talks between the US, Qatar, Israel and Hamas in Paris in February to build an outline for a potential hostage deal with Hamas.A source quoted by the French paper says Bishara “strongly influenced the drafting” of the outline, which would see a temporary pause in fighting in Gaza and the release of hostages held by Hamas since October 7 in exchange for the release of Palestinian security prisoners and provisions for the entry of humanitarian aid to the Strip.The report adds that Bishara serves as an adviser to Qatar’s Emir Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani.Once a Knesset black sheep over his pro-Palestinian stance, Bishara left Israel in 2007, accused of spying for Hezbollah, a charge he denied. He is now a major personality in Qatari media and has a following of more than 1.7 million on social media platform X.The Paris proposal is still in the midst of negotiations, with Israel expected to send a delegation to Qatar tomorrow.Agencies contributed to this report.

US schools becoming more supportive of Muslim students fasting during Ramadan-In Dearborn, Michigan, where half of population is Arab, fasting students are accommodated with separate activities during lunchtime-By AP and ToI Staff Today, 9:50 am-MAR 17,24

While Muslim students remain a rarity in many US school districts, they are a major presence in some communities, prompting public schools to be more attentive to their needs during the holy month of Ramadan when dawn-to-sundown fasting is a duty of Islam.For example, in Dearborn, Michigan — where nearly half the 110,000 residents are of Arab descent — public school teachers and staff strive to make things easier for students observing Ramadan.“We allow students on their own to practice their faith as long as it’s not a disruption to the school day,” said Dearborn Schools spokesperson David Mustonen. “We also try to find other spaces or activities in the school during lunch for those students who may be fasting.”But he stressed that these students are still required to complete all assignments.In St. Paul, Minnesota, East African Elementary Magnet School has set aside space in the library where students who are fasting and don’t want to be in the cafeteria can spend the break doing other supervised activities like reading, said principal Abdisalam Adam.The 220-student school opened last fall as part of St. Paul’s public schools system, and shares that curriculum, but it also aims to reinforce cultural and linguistic connections with Somalia and other East African countries. Adam said about 90 percent of the students are Somali Muslims.Adam, who has worked with the district for nearly 30 years, said he tells his staff that accommodating observance of Ramadan fits in with an overall goal of caring for students.“All needs are connected,” he said.For school districts less familiar with Muslim traditions, resources are available. For example, Islamic Networks Group, a California-based nonprofit, provides, among other things, online information for educators about Ramadan and its significance to Muslims.Many districts “don’t know very much about Islam or any of our holidays,” said Maha Elgenaidi, the group’s executive director. “If they don’t know very much about it, there’s not much they can provide to students in terms of accommodation” until they learn more and the parents are actively involved in asking for accommodations.She says fasting students may need to be excused from strenuous activities in gym class, and should be allowed to make up for tests missed due to absence to celebrate the Eid al-Fitr holiday that follows Ramadan.“If they’re not accommodated at school or the school doesn’t know anything about this, they’re kind of living dual lives there.”Fasting is not required of young children, but many Muslim children like to fast to share in the month’s rituals and emulate parents and older siblings, according to ING. Educators also need to know of the typical changes to Muslim families’ routines during Ramadan, such as waking up for the pre-dawn “suhoor” meal and staying up late to possibly attend prayers in the mosque, Elgenaidi said.When Dr. Aifra Ahmed’s children were younger, the Pakistani American physician and her husband would share insight about Ramadan with their classmates, reading to them a Ramadan story and distributing goodie bags with such things as dates.“I realized that the Muslim families in school have to do a lot of education,” said Ahmed, who lives in Los Altos, California.Ahmed’s husband, Moazzam Chaudry, said goodwill gestures, such as when educators offer a Ramadan greeting, send a message of inclusivity.For immigrant families, “that’s the first thing that… naturally comes to your mind, ‘Are we integrated into this society? Does this society even accept us?’” he said. “These little, little things make such a huge impact.”Punhal, the couple’s daughter who attends a charter middle school, said she takes part in physical education during Ramadan but skips running when fasting because she would need water afterward.She said a few non-Muslim friends told her they would like to fast with her in companionship.Naiel, her brother who’s in a public high school, said he was pleased when a teacher talked to the class about Ramadan and told him that, if he needed, he could take a nap.He wants others to better understand why he fasts.“A lot of kids and teachers think… I’m torturing myself or like it’s a diet,” he said. “When I’m fasting, I just feel a lot more gratitude towards everyone around me and towards people who don’t have as much.”In Dearborn, 14-year-old Adam Alcodray praised the faculty at Dearborn High for their understanding during Ramadan.“A lot of the teachers are just like more lenient, allowing us to do less,” said Alcodray, a 9th grader. “They don’t get mad because they realize we are hungry.”Alcodray says he fasts from 6:20 a.m. until around 8 p.m.“It’s not that bad to be honest,” he said. “When you know you can’t eat, something in your brain clicks.”Hussein Mortada, a 17-year-old senior at Dearborn High, said family solidarity is invaluable during Ramadan.“In my family, everybody’s fasting,” Mortada said. “Everybody’s going through the same thing. The whole month is meant for you to get closer to God and make your religion stronger.”This year, Ramadan carries extra significance due to the hardships being suffered by people in Gaza amid the Israel-Hamas war, Mortada said.“I feel helpless just sitting here on my phone, looking at everything that’s happening,” he said. “All you can do is feel for them and pray for them.”Alcodray shared similar sentiments.“When you look at what the children are eating in Gaza, you appreciate what your mom makes,” he said. “When you’re having a bad day, realize what they are going through.”Since the beginning of the war between Israel and Hamas, over 31,000 people have been killed, according to the Hamas-run Gaza health ministry. These numbers cannot be independently verified and do not differentiate between civilians and Hamas operatives. Israel says it has killed over 13,000 operatives since the beginning of the war.Much of Gaza’s population is believed to be at risk of starvation, according to the UN.The war broke out on October 7 when Hamas terrorists infiltrated Israel, killing about 1,200 people, mostly civilians, kidnapping 253 and committing widespread atrocities.At the East African magnet school in St. Paul, Marian Aden — who trains other teachers there — makes it a priority to encourage Ramadan-related accommodations for fasting students.Aden said her youngest daughter, 4-year-old Nora, woke up excited about Ramadan’s start on March 11 — but her teachers in the suburb where they live were not familiar with the occasion. Aden said she’ll be relieved when Nora starts attending the magnet school next year.“She’ll be celebrated for who she is,” Aden said.Minnesota has been home to growing numbers of refugees from war-torn Somalia since the late 1990s. Several school districts have recently made Eid a holiday.In Washington DC, Abdul Fouzi has two daughters, ages 8 and 12, who have gradually learned the meaning and rituals of Ramadan.Growing up in Sierra Leone in the 1980s, Fouzi said he was fasting for a full day as early as age 11. But he has not pushed his elder daughter to do likewise.“They’re still pretty young, so they’re not ready to go the whole day without food or water,” he said. “They’re not built like that.”Still, he wants them to get used to the idea; this year he’d like them to experiment with fasting for a half day.To Fouzi, more important than strict adherence to the rules at their age is their understanding of Ramadan’s meaning and the importance of praying for peace.“They make up their own little rules and find loopholes figuring out how they want to participate in and practice Ramadan in different ways, and I’m okay with that,” he said.

Analysis-Schumer’s rebuke of Netanyahu shows fragile line US walks on interference-US leaders, as well as American allies, are more frequently butting into the internal electoral politics of friends, and testing the waters-By AAMER MADHANI Today, 6:10 am-MAR 17,24

WASHINGTON (AP) — Republicans and Israeli officials were quick to express outrage after Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer sharply criticized Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s handling of the war in Gaza and called for Israel to hold new elections. They accused the Democratic leader of breaking the unwritten rule against interfering in a close ally’s electoral politics.Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell reacted to Schumer by saying it was “hypocritical for Americans who hyperventilate about interference in our own democracy to call for the removal of a democratically elected leader.”House Speaker Mike Johnson said Schumer’s call for new elections was “inappropriate.” Even Benny Gantz, a political rival of Netanyahu and member of Israel’s war cabinet, said Schumer’s remarks were “counterproductive.”Schumer’s stinging rebuke of Netanyahu — the senator said the Israeli leader had “lost his way” and was an obstacle to peace — was certainly provocative but it was hardly norm-breaking.US leaders, as well as American allies, are more frequently butting into electoral politics beyond the water’s edge.Look no further than the close and historically complicated relationship that American presidents and congressional leaders have negotiated with Israel leaders over the last 75 years.“It is an urban legend that we don’t intervene in Israeli politics and they don’t try to intervene in ours,” said Aaron David Miller, a senior fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, who worked as a Middle East negotiator in Republican and Democratic administrations. “We do intercede and they do intercede in ours.”In 2019, with just weeks to go before Netanyahu faced a difficult election, President Donald Trump abruptly declared the US was recognizing Israel’s sovereignty over the disputed Golan Heights, giving Netanyahu a political boost just when he badly needed it.In 2015, Republican House Speaker John Boehner invited Netanyahu to deliver an address to Congress during sensitive negotiations about Iran’s nuclear program and shortly before a national election in Israel.Boehner did not coordinate the invitation with President Barack Obama’s administration. Obama declined to invite Netanyahu to the White House during the visit, with White House officials saying that holding such a visit so close to Israel’s election would be inappropriate.The standard Obama set for a White House visit wasn’t one Bill Clinton subscribed to years earlier. In April 1996, Clinton invited Israeli Prime Minister Shimon Peres to the White House to sign a $100 million counter-terrorism accord shortly before an Israeli election. Years later, Clinton acknowledged in an interview that he was trying to give Peres a boost with voters.It didn’t work; Peres lost to Netanyahu.In practice, keeping out of allies’ elections has been more of a professed American value than enshrined protocol.US leaders have frequently demonstrated a “varsity versus junior varsity” approach to how overtly they noodle in the internal politics of friends, says Edward Frantz, a University of Indianapolis historian. The bigger the ally’s economy, the less likely American leaders are to meddle openly in its elections.“American politicians want to have it both ways,” Frantz said. “There are moments when American leaders want to and need to speak out and have their say. But there is reason to stay close to the lines on elections. You don’t want foreign governments to interfere in our own internal politics, either.”The lines have only become blurrier in recent years, and are being tested by how world leaders are approaching November’s Biden-Trump rematch.This past week, during a White House visit on the 25th anniversary of Poland’s accession into NATO, Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk didn’t obscure his desire to see Biden win another term.“I want you to know that your campaign four years ago was really inspirational for me and for so many Poles,” said Tusk, with conservative Polish President Andrzej Duda by his side. “And we were encouraged … after your victory. Thank you for your determination. It was something really important for — not only for the United States.”Tusk later singled out Johnson, the Republican House speaker, to blame for Washington’s deadlock on a spending bill with $60 billion in aid for Ukraine, which is running low on ammunition and arms in its war with Russia.“This is not some political skirmish that has significance only here, on the American political stage,” said Tusk.He told reporters that inaction by Johnson could “cost thousands of human lives in Ukraine.”Last week, Biden slammed Trump for hosting Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, who has described a possible comeback by Trump as the “only serious chance” for an end to the war in Ukraine.Hungary, like the US, is a member of NATO. Orbán has become an icon to some conservative populists for championing “illiberal democracy,” replete with restrictions on immigration and LGBTQ+ rights.Biden during a recent campaign event noted that Trump was meeting Orbán, and said the Hungarian leader is “looking for dictatorship.” Hungary summoned the US ambassador to Budapest, David Pressman, to register displeasure with the president’s comments.White House national security adviser Jake Sullivan said the president stood by his comments.“Our position is that Hungary has engaged in an assault on democratic institutions, and that remains a source of grave concern to us,” Sullivan said.The Schumer comments in the midst of Israel’s difficult five-month war against Hamas offer new strain to the US-Israel relationship.That relationship already has seen tensions between Biden and Netanyahu mount as the Palestinian death toll rises and innocent civilians suffer while the US and others struggle to get aid past Israel’s blockade and into Gaza. The war was triggered by Hamas’s October 7 killing spree across southern Israel, when terrorists killed some 1,200 people and took 253 hostage in Gaza.National elections are set for 2026 in Israel though they could well come earlier.Biden, in a brief exchange with reporters on Friday, said he thought Schumer had delivered “a good speech.” The president and White House officials, however, stopped short of endorsing Schumer’s call for elections.There have been other moments of deep tension in the US-Israeli relationship.President Dwight Eisenhower pressured Israel with the threat of sanctions into withdrawing from the Sinai in 1957 in the midst of the Suez Crisis. Ronald Reagan delayed the delivery of F16 fighter jets to Israel at a time of escalating violence in the Middle East. President George HW Bush held up $10 billion in loan guarantees to force the cessation of Israeli settlement activity in the occupied territories.But the press by Schumer for new elections ventures into uncharted territory.“All of those other crises were sort of one-offs,” Miller said. “They were efforts to move Israel in a focused, discrete way on a specific issue. What you have now after years of Netanyahu’s premierships is a fundamental crisis of confidence, which cuts to the core of the US-Israel relationship.”Times of Israel staff contributed to this report.

Trump warns of ‘bloodbath’ if he is not elected-Unclear what Republican nominee means with comments; Biden administration says former president doubling down on threats of political violence-By AFP Today, 10:36 am-MAR 17,24

VANDALIA, Ohio – Donald Trump told a rally in Ohio on Saturday that November’s presidential election will be the “most important date” in US history, painting his campaign for the White House as a turning point for the country.Days after securing his position as the presumptive Republican nominee, the former president also warned of a “bloodbath” if he is not elected – though it was not clear what he was referring to, with the remark coming in the middle of comments about threats to the US auto industry.“The date – remember this, November 5 – I believe it’s going to be the most important date in the history of our country,” the 77-year-old told rally-goers in Vandalia, Ohio, repeating well-worn criticisms that his rival, President Joe Biden, is the “worst” president.Criticizing what he said were Chinese plans to build cars in Mexico and sell them to Americans, he stated: “We’re going to put a 100 percent tariff on every single car that comes across the line, and you’re not going to be able to sell those cars if I get elected.”“Now if I don’t get elected it’s going to be a bloodbath for the whole – that’s going to be the least of it, it’s going to be a bloodbath for the country. That’ll be the least of it. But they’re not going to sell those cars.”As Trump’s comment gained traction on social media, Biden’s campaign released a statement calling the Republican a “loser” at the ballot box in 2020 who then “doubles down on his threats of political violence.”“He wants another January 6 but the American people are going to give him another electoral defeat this November because they continue to reject his extremism, his affection for violence and his thirst for revenge,” the campaign said, referring to the deadly attack on the US Capitol by Trump supporters in 2021.Later, Biden spoke at a dinner in Washington, where he also warned of “an unprecedented moment in history.”“Freedom is under assault… The lies about the 2020 election, the plot to overturn it, to embrace the January 6 insurrection pose the greatest threat to our democracy since the American Civil War,” he said.“In 2020, they failed, but… the threat remains.”The 81-year-old, who has waved off concerns that he is too old for a second term, leavened his rhetoric with humor.“One candidate’s too old and mentally unfit to be president,” he said of the presidential race. “The other guy’s me.”Border issues-Earlier this month Trump and Biden each won enough delegates to clinch their party nominations in the 2024 presidential race, all but assuring a rematch and setting up one of the longest election campaigns in US history.Among the issues Trump is campaigning on is sweeping reform of what he calls Biden’s “horror show” immigration policies, despite the ex-president successfully pressuring Republicans to block a bill in Congress that included the toughest border security measures in decades.On Saturday, he invoked the border again as he reached out to minorities who have traditionally voted Democrat.He said Biden had “repeatedly stabbed African-American voters in the back” by granting work permits to “millions” of immigrants, warning that they and Hispanic Americans “are going to be the ones that suffer the most.”For decades Ohio had been seen as a bellwether battleground state, though it has trended more strongly Republican since Trump’s White House win in 2016.The rally came a day after Trump’s former vice president, Mike Pence, said he would not endorse his old boss for a second White House term.

Germany’s central bank confronts Nazi past and vows ‘never again’Research by Deutsche Bundesbank details how predecessor the Reichsbank financed Hitler’s war efforts, including handling gold, currency taken from concentration camp victims-By Reuters and ToI Staff Today, 10:58 am-MAR 17,24

Germany’s Bundesbank confronted its predecessor’s Nazi past in new research published on Friday and vowed it would never allow antisemitism or discrimination.The bank put out an abridged version of an upcoming series of volumes, at a time when the far right is on the rise in Germany, triggering nationwide protests in a country still scarred by its 20th-century history.The research, which examined central banking in Germany between 1924 and 1970, detailed how the Reichsbank financed Adolf Hitler’s war efforts, helped the exploitation of occupied territories, and was involved in the confiscation, expropriation, and sale of Jewish assets.It also processed gold and foreign currency taken from prisoners murdered in the Nazi concentration and extermination camps.“The Reichsbank acted as a willing stooge and receiver of stolen goods in the context of the financial holocaust,” said Albrecht Ritschl, a professor of economic history at the London School of Economics and one of the authors of the research.Founded in Frankfurt in 1957, the Bundesbank had little in common with the Berlin-based Reichsbank, which was wound down after the end of World War II and initially replaced with the Bank deutscher Länder.The Reichsbank’s gold, for example, was confiscated by the Allies. However, some of its staff and above all middle managers were hired by the new institutions after undergoing a process known as “denazification.”Imposed by the Allies at the end of the war, the criteria for such denazification became laxer after 1948 as Germany became more integrated in the West and the central bank scrambled to find qualified personnel, the researchers found.“The degree of continuity in terms of what we might call the functional elite is thus on a par with that seen in ministries and other public institutions,” said fellow author Magnus Brechtken, deputy director of the Institute for Contemporary History in Munich.Bundesbank President Joachim Nagel hoped the 100-page booklet would reach the general public and vowed to learn lessons from it during a press conference to present the research.The academic work “traces how central bankers became willing accessories to a criminal regime,” Nagel said according to a report from the Deutsche Welle broadcaster. “It shows how susceptible they were to racism, antisemitism and anti-democratic thinking.”“Never again should there be antisemitism in Germany,” he said, repeating a slogan used in recent demonstrations against the far-right.“Never again should minorities be excluded and subjected to state tyranny, never again should government bodies like the central bank be allowed to trample on democratic values,” Nagel added.

Egypt strikes deal for billions in EU funding as economy struggles-European Union seeks strategic partnership with Cairo amid rising instability across the Middle East-By Reuters and ToI Staff Today, 1:32 pm-MAR 17,24

European leaders were expected to announce a 7.4 billion euro ($8.06 billion) funding package and an upgraded relationship with Egypt in Cairo on Sunday, part of a push to stem migrant flows across the Mediterranean that has been criticized by rights groups.The agreement, which lifts the European Union’s relationship with Egypt to a “strategic partnership,” is designed to boost cooperation in areas including renewable energy, trade and security while delivering grants, loans and other funding over the next three years to support Egypt’s faltering economy.That funding is expected to include 5 billion euros in macro-financial assistance, 1.8 billion euros of investments and 600 million euros in grants, a senior EU commission official said.The macro-financial assistance includes 1 billion euros in emergency funding to be delivered this year. The remaining 4 billion euros will be subject to approval by the European parliament, the official said.Most of the money is newly allocated and the funding was drawn up in close cooperation with the International Monetary Fund, the official added. European governments have long been worried about the risk of instability in Egypt, a country of 106 million people that has been struggling to raise foreign currency and where economic adversity has pushed increasing numbers to migrate in recent years.Inflation has been running close to record highs and many Egyptians say they struggle to get by. Over the past month, however, the financial pressure on the government has eased as Egypt has struck a record deal for Emirati investment, expanded its loan program with the IMF and sharply devalued its currency.Diplomats say Egypt’s strategic importance has been underscored by the conflict in neighboring Sudan, which has created the world’s biggest displacement crisis, and the war in Gaza, which borders Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula.Egypt has been the main conduit for international humanitarian aid sent to Gaza, and, along with Qatar and the United States, has been trying to mediate a truce between Israel and Hamas.The war between Israel and Hamas broke out following Hamas’s devastating October 7 onslaught, which saw terrorists from Gaza infiltrate Israel, killing about 1,200 people, mostly civilians, and kidnapping 253 while committing atrocities. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen is leading a delegation on Sunday that also includes the Italian, Greek, Austrian and Belgian prime ministers, and the Cypriot president.Egypt’s finance minister has said the government has lined up a total of $20 billion in multilateral support after increasing its loan and economic reform program with the IMF.Crossings via Libya-Egyptian officials say Egypt deserves recognition for hosting an estimated nine million foreign residents and largely shutting off irregular migration from its north coast since 2016.But there has been a surge in Egyptians trying to cross to Europe via Libya, and the European Union is already providing funding aimed at reducing those flows.In recent months, the Greek islands of Crete and Gavdos have seen a steep rise in migrant arrivals – mostly from Egypt, Bangladesh and Pakistan – raising concern about a new smuggling route in the Mediterranean. Activists have criticized Western support for President Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi, who came to power a decade ago after leading the overthrow of Egypt’s first democratically elected leader, Mohammed Morsi, who was affiliated with the Muslim Brotherhood.Rights groups say tens of thousands of people have been jailed in a crackdown that has swept up dissidents from across the political spectrum.El-Sissi’s backers say security measures were needed to stabilize Egypt after the turmoil of the 2011 “Arab Spring” uprising and pave the way for providing social rights such as housing and jobs.EU moves to offer financing in return for migration curbs in other countries including in Tunisia have run up against obstacles and criticism.“The blueprint is the same as the flawed EU deals with Tunisia and Mauritania: stop migrants, ignore abuses,” Human Rights Watch said of the plan to enhance ties with Egypt and provide new financing.

Iran signs big contracts with domestic oil companies amid sanctions-Oil minister says country aims to add 350,000 barrels per day of oil production by end of Persian year with new deals-By AFP Today, 7:14 pm-MAR 17,24

TEHRAN — Iran sealed contracts on Sunday worth billions of dollars with domestic companies to boost its oil production in the face of Western sanctions.In a ceremony broadcast on state TV, the oil ministry and Iranian businesses signed deals worth $13 billion to increase daily oil production in six major fields.Shana, the official news agency for the oil industry, labeled the deals Iran’s “biggest oil contracts in the past decade” and said they aimed to add 350,000 barrels per day to the country’s daily production.In October, Iranian Oil Minister Javad Owji promised the country’s oil production would reach 3.6 million barrels per day by the end of the Persian year on March 19.In the new year under the Persian calendar, “production will reach four million barrels per day,” he added.Iran’s oil sector suffered a blow in 2018 when Western sanctions were reimposed, forcing foreign companies to leave the country, after the United States withdrew from a landmark deal designed to curb Tehran’s nuclear program.According to the oil ministry, Iran will be “relying on domestic expertise” to help boost the production in its western and southwestern fields, including Azadegan in Khuzestan province, on the border with Iraq.Development contracts for Iran’s oldest oil field, Masjed Soleyman in Khuzestan, were also signed.First drilled in 1908, well No. 1 in Masjed Soleyman is the oldest in the Middle East.The oil ministry signed the contracts two days before the 73rd anniversary of the nationalization of the Iranian oil industry, then run by the British-controlled Anglo-Iranian Oil Company.Last week, Iran said it had given $20 billion in contracts to domestic firms to ramp up production from the offshore South Pars gas field in the Gulf, which is shared with Qatar.According to the United States Energy Information Administration (EIA), Iran was the world’s seventh-largest crude oil producer in 2022.It also holds the world’s third-largest proven oil reserves, behind Venezuela and Saudi Arabia, according to the EIA.

Ben Gvir seeks to permit Jewish visits to Temple Mount on last 10 days of Ramadan-Non-Muslims usually barred from visiting highly sensitive holy site at culmination of Muslim holy month; security officials ‘discussing’ far-right minister’s request-By Jeremy Sharon
Today, 3:18 pm-MAR 18,24

National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir is pressing to for permission for Jews to visit the Temple Mount during the last 10 days of Ramadan, a period of time when such visits have in the past been prohibited.Although Jewish visitation to the holy site is permitted in the first 20 days of the Muslim month of fasting, it is usually shut down completely during the last 10 days since that is when the Laylat al-Qadr falls — the holiest night of the year in Islam ,which as such is considered to be particularly sensitive in terms of security concerns.Ben Gvir, who heads the far-right Otzma Yehudit party, is an ardent proponent of Jewish visitation rights on the Temple Mount and has visited the site during his tenure as minister.Senior security officials have been been informed of Ben Gvir’s request and are examining the request, the minister’s office said.But Channel 13 news, which first reported the story, said that senior cabinet officials have stated that the national security minister’s request will not be granted due to the extremely tense security situation in Jerusalem owing to the ongoing war in Gaza and concerns of unrest among the Palestinian population of East Jerusalem and the West Bank.Non-Muslim visits to the Temple Mount are permitted during normal times for three and a half hours in the morning and an hour in the afternoon from Sunday to Thursday.During the first 20 days of Ramadan, visits to the site for non-Muslims are permitted only in the morning hours.This year’s Ramadan comes amid boiling tensions in the region stemming from the ongoing war against Hamas in the Gaza Strip, triggered by the group’s savage October 7 attack, when thousands of terrorists rampaged through southern Israel, killing some 1,200 people and taking 253 hostages.Although the national security minister has heavy influence over the Temple Mount since he has authority over the police force, which determines arrangements on a daily basis at the site, broader policy over the Mount is ultimately in the hands of the prime minister, who will often make decisions on the basis of recommendations from his National Security Council.Before the start of Ramadan last Sunday, Ben Gvir had sought to restrict the numbers of Muslim worshipers allowed at the site during the holy month, including Arab Israelis, but was ultimately overruled by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.The Temple Mount is the holiest place in Judaism, where two biblical Temples once stood, while the Al-Aqsa Mosque there is the third-holiest shrine in Islam, making the site a central flashpoint of the Israeli-Arab conflict.Tens of thousands of Muslim worshipers took part in the first Friday prayers of Ramadan on the Temple Mount last week. The prayers ending without incident despite efforts by terrorist groups to spark conflict in the holy city.In a statement on Thursday, Hamas had called on its followers to “participate urgently in defending Al-Aqsa Mosque against the aggression that lurks in these critical times.”In past years during Ramadan, Palestinians have at times barricaded themselves inside the Al-Aqsa Mosque, some with explosives and rocks. Police operations to clear them out have often resulted in violence.Last year, two consecutive nights of clashes between police officers and Palestinians at the mosque sparked barrages of rocket fire from Lebanon and the Gaza Strip.

Jordan, EU foreign policy chief accuse Israel of deliberately starving Gazans-Foreign Minister Katz rejects statements, places blame on Hamas disruption of aid efforts; UN report says famine can be averted-By Lazar Berman-Today, 4:01 pm-MAR 18,24

Israel came under withering criticism from neighboring Jordan, the European Union and international organizations on Monday, including accusations that it is purposely starving Gazan civilians.The European Union’s foreign policy chief Josep Borrell told an EU foreign ministers meeting that “starvation is used as a weapon of war. Israel is provoking famine.” He made similar comments to the UN Security Council last week.Also on Monday, the head of UNRWA, the United Nations Palestinian refugee agency, said that the hunger in the Gaza Strip was “man-made.”A UN-backed report said famine was expected in some 70% of households in the north of the Gaza Strip between now and May.Across the whole of the Strip, the number of people facing “catastrophic hunger” has risen to 1.1 million, or some half of the population, according to a report by the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification, a collaboration of over a dozen international organizations, including several UN agencies.And at a press conference in Amman with his Brazilian counterpart, Jordan’s Foreign Minister Ayman Al-Safadi accused Israel of “starving children to death and taking more than 2 million Palestinians hostage.”Rejecting the accusations, Foreign Minister Israel Katz said Israel was allowing aid into Gaza.“Israel allows extensive humanitarian aid into Gaza by land, air, and sea for anyone willing to help,” Katz wrote on X. “Despite Hamas violently disrupting aid convoys and UNRWA’s collaboration with them, we persist.”He added that Borrell should “stop attacking Israel and recognize our right to self-defense against Hamas’s crimes.”UNRWA chief Philippe Lazzarini said during a press conference in Cairo with Egyptian Foreign Minister Sameh Shoukry: “We are engaged in a race against the clock to try to reverse the impact of the spreading hunger and the looming famine in the Gaza Strip.”The crisis could be resolved and reversed if there were political will to do so and Gaza could be “flooded” with food through land crossings, he added.The UN agency chief also said more than 150 of UNRWA’s facilities have been hit, damaged or completely destroyed during Israel’s air and land campaign to destroy Hamas, the Islamist terrorist group that rules the territory and that sparked the war with its deadly attacks on southern Israel on Oct. 7.“We also know that a number of staff that have been arrested have gone through very tough investigation, ill-treatment and humiliation,” Lazzarini said.The UN official said his entry request to Gaza’s border town of Rafah had been declined: “I intended to go to Rafah today, but I have been informed an hour ago that my entry into Rafah is declined.”The rejection was not the responsibility of the Egyptian government, Shoukry said. “You were declined by the Israeli government, refused the entry which is an unprecedented move for representative at this high position,” he said.The Foreign Ministry in Jerusalem told The Times of Israel that it had not received any request from Lazzarini.Israel has been under increasing pressure to allow more aid into Gaza. The United States has joined other countries in airdropping supplies to the isolated region of northern Gaza and has announced plans to construct a pier to get aid in.The UN has reported particular difficulty in accessing northern Gaza for deliveries of food and other aid. Residents say they have resorted to eating wild plants and animal fodder, and some have stormed the few aid trucks that have made it through, sometimes with deadly consequences.Monday’s UN-backed report said it was not too late to stop famine from taking hold.“The rapidly escalating hunger crisis in the Gaza Strip must immediately be curbed. This requires putting an end to the hostilities, mobilizingnecessary resources and ensuring the safe delivery of humanitarian assistance to the people of Gaza,” the report read.The Hamas-run Gaza health ministry says more than 31,000 people in the Strip have been killed in the fighting so far, a figure that cannot be independently verified, and includes those killed by the terror groups’ failed rocket launches and some 13,000 Hamas terrorists Israel says it has killed in battle. Israel also says it killed some 1,000 gunmen inside Israel on October 7.Ahead of the EU meeting, Borrell also said he is confident that the body will agree on sanctions against both Hamas and violent Israeli West Bank settlers.“It seems that today all will agree on putting sanctions on both Hamas and the violent settlers who are harassing Palestinians in the West Bank,” he told reporters.The EU was close to agreeing on the sanctions after Hungary signaled an end to its opposition, European diplomats said on Friday.Some EU members close to Israel, such as Germany and Austria, had said they were ready to approve sanctions on violent settlers once more sanctions had been imposed on Hamas.Reuters and AFP contributed to this report.

Iceland volcano: 'Most powerful' eruption yet narrowly misses Grindavik but could still trigger life-threatening toxic gas plume-News-By Harry Baker-MAR 18,24

The submerged volcano in Iceland's Reykjanes Peninsula has erupted for the fourth time in four months. The resulting lava flow narrowly missed Grindavík but could still reach the sea and potentially unleash a toxic gas plume.A volcano in southwest Iceland has erupted without warning for the fourth time in four months, opening up massive, fiery fissures in the ground — potentially the largest it has produced to date. The eruption spewed out a river of molten rock that narrowly missed the town of Grindavík. The eruption poses no immediate risk to local people. However, if the lava flow reaches the sea, which is still possible, it could create a giant plume of toxic gas that would be "life-threatening" to anyone near the shore, experts warn.The volcano is a roughly 9 mile-long (15 kilometers) magma tunnel that runs beneath the ground, stretching north from Grindavík toward Sundhnúk in the Reykjanes Peninsula. When the hidden magma gets too close to the surface, it breaks through, triggering long and narrow fissures that violently spit out lava, ash and smoke. The most extreme activity does not last for long, but the resulting lava can travel for several miles, burning anything in its path before eventually cooling down. The volcano first erupted in December last year after weeks of seismic activity and ground deformation, before blowing its top again in January this year. Another eruption began on Feb. 6, and lasted for just over a week.On Saturday (March 16), the volcano suddenly erupted for a fourth time at around 8 p.m. local time with almost no warning. This time, lava broke through in three separate places, creating two fissures between Hagafell and Stóra-Skógfell, according to a translated statement from the Icelandic Met Office (IMO).The largest fissure is around 1.8 miles (2.9 km) long, which is around the same size as the previous eruption, IMO reported. However, Iceland's Civil Protection estimates that the combined length of the latest fissures could be up to 2.5 miles (4 km) long, which would make the eruption the biggest since volcanic activity in the region restarted in 2021.   Map shows the extent of lava 5 hours after the eruption in orange.

The eruption is still ongoing at both fissures, but the rate of magma release has now reduced to between 2% and 5% of the original outpour, he added.A lava flow from the smaller fissure came within about 1,000 feet (300 meters) of Grindavík's perimeter defenses, which were erected during the first eruption, but is now moving away from the town and toward the coast, according to the IMO.

If lava does reach the shore, rapid cooling of the molten rock could release hydrochloric acid gas, IMO representatives wrote. In high doses this colorless gas can corrode the skin, eyes and respiratory tract, leading to long-lasting injuries or even death, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. "In a radius of about 500m [1,640 feet] from the point where lava would come into contact with the sea, conditions would be life-threatening," IMO representatives wrote. The threat to life diminishes the further away from the shore the gas reaches, and beyond 2 miles (3 km) it is unlikely that anyone would be in danger, they added.Grindavík lies within the toxic gas' potential danger zone. However, a majority of the town has been evacuated and the remaining residents have been warned to stay away.Skyline of the city infront of a bright orange sky that is filled with gas clouds.It is still unclear if the lava will reach the sea. As of Sunday (March 17), the lava flow was only around 2,000 feet (600 meters) from the coast and is expected to get even closer by the end of Monday (March 18), according to the IMO. But it is slowing down. At its peak, the molten rock was traveling at around 985 feet per hour (300 meters per hour) but has since slowed down to around 39 feet per hour (12 meters per hour), IMO reported. There are also suggestions that the lava may have begun to pool behind a rocky outcrop, which may slow it down even further, RÚV reported."It is nevertheless important to be prepared for this scenario," Civil Protection representatives wrote in a statement.Bright orange sky above a quiet street.Hot molten lava.Lava creates streams of molten magma and creates a massive gas cloud.
