REBUILT 3RD TEMPLE (THE EU DICTATORS TEMPLE)

ISAIAH 30:10-15
10 Which say to the seers, See not; and to the prophets, Prophesy not unto us right things, speak unto us smooth things, prophesy deceits:
11 Get you out of the way, turn aside out of the path, cause the Holy One of Israel to cease from before us.
12 Wherefore thus saith the Holy One of Israel, Because ye despise this word, and trust in oppression and perverseness, and stay thereon:
13 Therefore this iniquity shall be to you as a breach ready to fall, swelling out in a high wall, whose breaking cometh suddenly at an instant.
14 And he shall break it as the breaking of the potters’ vessel that is broken in pieces; he shall not spare: so that there shall not be found in the bursting of it a sherd to take fire from the hearth, or to take water withal out of the pit.
15 For thus saith the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel; In returning and rest shall ye be saved; in quietness and in confidence shall be your strength: and ye would not.
16 But ye said, No; for we will flee upon horses; therefore shall ye flee: and, We will ride upon the swift; therefore shall they that pursue you be swift.

REVELATION 11:1-2

DANIEL 9:27
27 And he( THE ROMAN,EU PRESIDENT) shall confirm the covenant with many for one week:(1X7=7 YEARS) and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease,(3 1/2 yrs in TEMPLE SACRIFICES STOPPED) and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.

3 And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.
4 And he shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people: and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.
5 O house of Jacob, come ye, and let us walk in the light of the LORD.

MARK 11:9-10,15-17
9 And they that went before, and they that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna; Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord:
10 Blessed be the kingdom of our father David, that cometh in the name of the Lord: Hosanna in the highest.
15 And they come to Jerusalem: and Jesus went into the temple, and began to cast out them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves;
16 And would not suffer that any man should carry any vessel through the temple.
17 And he taught, saying unto them, Is it not written, My house shall be called of all nations the house of prayer? but ye have made it a den of thieves.

Gallant: 'A pyromaniac sitting in the Israeli government' Ben Gvir declares Jewish prayer permitted on Temple Mount, again defying status quo-PM’s office pushes back against far-right minister, insists current situation in which Jews are banned from praying at holy site ‘has not changed and will not change’ By Sam Sokol-Today, 5:10 pm-WED JUL 24,24

Far-right National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir on Wednesday claimed a major change has been instituted to the fragile status quo on Jerusalem’s Temple Mount, saying he prays at the site and that Jewish prayer is allowed at the site, despite a decades-long ban on the practice.“I was at the Temple Mount last week. I prayed at the Temple Mount and we are praying at the Temple Mount. I am in the political echelon, and the political echelon allows Jewish prayer at the Temple Mount,” Ben Gvir told attendees at a Knesset conference encouraging Jewish visits to the holy site.He made the statement hours before Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s was to speak to a joint session of Congress on a high-stakes trip during which Netanyahu will meet with President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris and Republican nominee former president Donald Trump.It was the second time in as many months that Ben Gvir, challenging Netanyahu, said it was official policy to allow Jews to pray at the site, after he made similar claims in June.As in the case of those comments, Netanyahu’s office quickly countered Ben Gvir’s assertion, releasing a statement declaring that Israel’s policy “to maintain the status quo on the Temple Mount has not changed and will not change.”In a subsequent statement, Ben Gvir said that allowing Jews to pray on the Mount had been his position for months and insisted that on his watch “there will not be racist discrimination against Jews, who alone are forbidden from praying… in the holiest place for the Jewish people.”The Temple Mount in Jerusalem’s Old City is the holiest place in Judaism, as the site of the two biblical temples. Known to Muslims as the Noble Sanctuary, it is home to Al-Aqsa Mosque, the third-holiest site in Islam.The vague status quo governing the compound allows Muslims to pray and enter with few restrictions, while non-Muslims, including Jews, can visit only during limited time slots via a single gate, with visibly religious Jews only allowed to walk on a predetermined route, closely accompanied by police. While Jews are not officially allowed to pray, police have increasingly tolerated limited, quiet prayer.The Temple Mount has been the scene of frequent clashes between Palestinian protesters and Israeli security forces, and tensions at the disputed compound have fueled past rounds of violence.Palestinians often claim Israel wishes to assert greater control over the Mount, and the issue is seen as a particularly sensitive one, with explosive potential for the region.In a video published by the Walla news site Wednesday, Chief Superintendent Eyal Avraham, commander of Israel Police’s Holy Sites Unit, stated: “We do not allow [Jewish] prayer at the Temple Mount.”Ben Gvir’s comments also elicited strong criticism from ultra-Orthodox lawmakers who believe that ascending to the Temple Mount violates Jewish law.“The great blasphemy that has been committed cannot pass quietly,” Interior Minister Moshe Arbel (Shas) told the Knesset. Senior United Torah Judaism lawmaker Moshe Gafni tweeted a demand that the prime minister either preserve the status quo or “close the Temple Mount to Jews.”The Orthodox Chief Rabbinate maintains that due to the destroyed Jewish Temples’ Holy of Holies being located on the Temple Mount, Jewish people should not enter the compound at all — while many Palestinians and Muslims reject the very notion that the Mount is holy to Jews at all.Try and try again-Speaking with Radio Galei Israel on Jerusalem Day last month, the leader of the ultranationalist Otzma Yehudit party said that as far as he was concerned, Jewish prayer was now allowed on the Temple Mount.“That’s the ministerial position and Jews pray on the Temple Mount and that’s a good thing,” he declared, prompting Netanyahu to issue a statement nearly identical to the one released Wednesday.Ben Gvir is an ardent proponent of greater Jewish access to the Temple Mount and has made several visits to the site during his tenure as minister.Israel’s far-right National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir has visited Al Aqsa compound / Temple Mount this morning.In this video some of the people he is with are praying, which violates the status quo. Police seemingly watch on: pic.twitter.com/VuuLc7C1wd— Alistair Bunkall (@AliBunkallSKY) May 22, 2024-A video posted to X in May showed Jewish members of his entourage praying during a visit, which many saw as inflammatory.A holy backdrop-During his most recent visit, which he referred to in his remarks on Wednesday morning, Ben Gvir called on Netanyahu “not to fold” on a hostage deal with Hamas.Speaking in a video with the Dome of the Rock behind him, the far-right minister said he had come “to the most important place for the State of Israel, for the Jewish people, to pray for the hostages to return home — but without a reckless deal, without surrender.”“I am praying and am also working hard so that the prime minister will have the strength not to fold and to go on to victory: to add military pressure, to stop fuel [from entering Gaza] — to win,” he declared.This was not the first time that Ben Gvir has delivered a political message from the Temple Mount. In May he released a video filmed at the holy site expressing opposition to the establishment of a Palestinian state.A ‘pyromaniac’Several hours after Ben Gvir’s comments on Wednesday morning, as his exclusion from a proposed high-level security forum exacerbated an ongoing feud with the ultra-Orthodox Shas party, Defense Minister Yoav Gallant warned that the minister posed a danger to Israel and the wider region and that he must not be allowed to influence the course of the war.“There is a pyromaniac sitting in the Israeli government who is trying to set fire to the Middle East,” he tweeted. “I oppose any negotiations to put him in the war cabinet. This will allow him to realize his plans.”While Netanyahu disbanded the war cabinet when the National Unity party withdrew from the government in June, Ben Gvir has repeatedly held up Shas-backed legislation in an attempt to force the prime minister to appoint him to a similar body that will steer the war.In a statement on Telegram, former war cabinet minister Benny Gantz declared that “just as Ben Gvir did not decide on the number of [worshipers] entering the Temple Mount during the month of Ramadan, so too he is not deciding on this issue either.”Earlier this year Netanyahu overruled Ben Gvir’s attempt to restrict the number of worshipers allowed to pray on the Temple Mount in the first week of Ramadan.“Instead of holding discussions on his inclusion in the narrow security decision-making forum, he should be stripped of all decision-making authority on sensitive security issues,” Gantz said — praising Shas leader Aryeh Deri for reportedly blocking Ben Gvir’s appointment to the body.Video of the fire on the Temple Mount pic.twitter.com/6NX9D5QE40 — Emanuel (Mannie) Fabian (@manniefabian) May 10, 2021-Israel launched Operation Guardian of the Walls in May 2021 in response to Hamas rocket fire launched after Israel declined an ultimatum to withdraw from the holy site — and Hamas has named its October 7, 2023, attack, in which the terror group stormed southern Israel to kill nearly 1,200 people and abduct 251, the Al Aqsa Flood.Times of Israel staff contributed to this report.

Ben Gvir endorses Trump in highly irregular move, day before PM meets Biden, Harris-Speaking to Bloomberg in interview published hours before Netanyahu’s speech to Congress, far-right minister claims Republican leader would be better for Israel-By ToI Staff Today, 5:07 pm-JUN 24,24

Far-right National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir endorsed Donald Trump for president in a highly irregular move, as top officials from both nations usually avoid wading into one another’s internal politics and do not wish to be seen as favoring one side over another.His comments, in an interview published Wednesday, came at a particularly inconvenient time for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who is in Washington and was set to meet Thursday with US President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, the likely Democratic nominee in the coming election.In an interview with Bloomberg, Ben Gvir asserted that a win for Trump in the November vote would be better for Israel, implying that only the Republican nominee would offer support for action against Tehran.“I believe that with Trump, Israel will receive the backing to act against Iran,” Ben Gvir told Bloomberg. “With Trump it will be clearer that enemies must be defeated.”“The US has always stood behind Israel in terms of armaments and weapons, yet [during the war in Gaza] the sense was that we were being reckoned with — that we were trying to be prevented from winning,” Ben Gvir said. “That happened on Biden’s watch and fed Hamas with lots of energy.”The comments were published just hours before Netanyahu was set to address the US Congress. After his meetings with Democratic leaders on Thursday he is set to meet with Trump in Florida on Friday.The Bloomberg report said that while Ben Gvir did not directly address the policies of Harris — who has secured the support of enough Democratic delegates to become her party’s nominee for the election —  he implied they would be a continuation of Biden’s.Ben Gvir acknowledged that his endorsement of Trump could be viewed unfavorably by his colleagues.“A cabinet minister is supposed to maintain neutrality, but that’s impossible to do after Biden,” he argued.Ben Gvir is the second Israeli minister to break decorum and make undiplomatic comments in favor of Trump and against Biden, after Diaspora Affairs Minister Amichai Chikli said in April that Biden was projecting weakness and that he would vote for Trump if he could.Bloomberg also described Ben Gvir as “bemoaning” Netanyahu’s response to Iran’s unprecedented drone and missile attack on Israel in April.“Israel should respond to attacks on it in a determined, pain-inflicting manner,” he said.Additionally, the far-right minister said he was in favor of full-blown conflict with the Iran-backed Lebanon-based Hezbollah terror group, which has been attacking Israeli communities and military outposts along the northern border on a near-daily basis since October 8.“The sooner, the better,” he said.Ben Gvir’s comments on Trump came just days after he reportedly suggested to security cabinet ministers that a hostage-ceasefire deal with Hamas should be delayed because implementing it would be advantageous for the Democrats and detrimental to Trump in the November election.Channel 13 news reported that the Otzma Yehudit party leader said an agreement now would be “a slap for Trump, which would be a victory for Biden.”Ben Gvir and Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich, who both oppose any deal that ends the fighting before Hamas is eliminated, have threatened to topple the government if a deal is approved that sees an end to the fighting.Last week, the White House revisited the idea of sanctioning Ben Gvir and Smotrich during a meeting regarding the deteriorating situation in the West Bank, according to two United States officials.Biden has been supportive of Israel since October 7, vowing to continue arming Israel in its war to topple the Gaza terror group. The US president visited Israel early in the war, has met family members of some of those being held hostage in Gaza, and sent US warships and planes to the region in support of the country.But as casualties in Gaza have increased, Biden has pressured Jerusalem to reach a ceasefire deal to free the hostages, end the war and boost humanitarian aid into the Strip.The US president also withheld a delivery of high-payload weapons in early May, as Israel launched its offensive in densely populated Rafah. The US and other allies had long warned against the operation in the Strip’s southernmost city, where over a million Palestinians sought shelter after being displaced from the Strip’s north and center. Israel said the offensive was necessary to dismantle Hamas’s last remaining battalions. In the end, international predictions of massive civilian casualties in a Rafah offensive did not come to pass.Washington recently released some of the delayed arms shipment, but not the 2,000-lb (900-kg) bombs.Trump is adored by many in the Israeli right for his policies as president, namely his relocation of the US embassy to Jerusalem, his recognition of the city as Israel’s capital and his recognition of the annexation of the Golan Heights.But the former US president has also spent time at recent rallies mocking the intelligence failure that led to the devastating October 7 attack, and criticizing Netanyahu.In the days following the Hamas assault, in which some 1,200 people in Israel were killed and 251 were abducted by thousands of Hamas-led terrorists, Trump found himself in hot water with Israel, Biden and even some Republicans over comments he made at a campaign rally when he called Defense Minister Yoav Gallant a “jerk” and Lebanon’s Hezbollah terror group “very smart.”At one point he was reported to have privately called for Netanyahu to be “impeached” for failing to anticipate the massive Hamas rampage.Trump has resented Netanyahu for years for congratulating Biden on his 2020 electoral win while the US president was still falsely claiming the election had been stolen from him. The prime minister’s meeting with the now-2024 candidate on Friday is meant to help mend ties between the two as the Republican continues to lead in many polls ahead of the November presidential vote.

5 As birds flying,(PLANES) so will the LORD of hosts defend Jerusalem;(WITH PLANES) defending also he will deliver it; and passing over he will preserve it.(NUKE OR BOMB ISRAELS ENEMIES)

Reporter's notebook-As Wing of Zion finally takes off, a less than soaring adventure for press corps-On its first official flight ferrying PM to Washington, aircraft that has come under criticism for spending woes offers novel yet oddly middling experience for reporters on hand-By Lazar Berman-Today, 7:58 pm-JUL 24,24

For all the hullabaloo around the first official flight of Wing of Zion, Israel’s so-called “Air Force One,” the first official flight on the aircraft didn’t get off to a very auspicious start.First, the Prime Minister’s Office discovered that there were unexpected weight restrictions for the transatlantic flight to Washington, and had to send staffers and equipment over a week early. Then, a small crack was discovered on the cockpit windshield while it was on the tarmac in the US, which had to be fixed before it flew back last week.With those issues behind it — not to mention years of numerous cost overruns, delays and political controversy — the 28-year-old repurposed Boeing 767-300ER was finally ready this week to take Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to the US to meet President Joe Biden and address a joint session of Congress.The plane arrived in Israel in 2016, and the conversion — said to have cost around NIS 750 million ($207 million), far, far beyond initial projections — was largely completed by 2019, when the aircraft conducted its first test flight.At the end of its extensive renovations, the plane was said to include a private office for the prime minister, a bedroom with a bathroom and shower, a fully stocked kitchen, a meeting room and even a “war room.”Netanyahu’s opponents have long argued that the plane, intended for the use of Israeli heads of state and government, is a waste of taxpayer money, and have branded it a symbol of Netanyahu’s overindulgence, while his supporters have defended it as a necessary safety measure.The limitations of the plane affected the journalists accompanying the prime minister. Because of weight limits, only 10 members of Israel’s diplomatic press corps could fly out with the official delegation, this writer for The Times of Israel among them.Since the plane surprisingly does not have an entertainment system, the group was encouraged to download movies to their devices ahead of time, and to bring books.The reporters arrived at Ben Gurion Airport at 6 a.m. on Monday to go through the Shin Bet security check. Two hours later, before boarding a bus from the gate to Wing of Zion, the press corps received a security briefing about the plane by a Shin Bet representative.He said the aircraft was divided into four sections — the press in the back, then security staff and members of the prime minister’s delegation, then senior aides, and finally the premier’s personal section. Under no circumstances were journalists to leave the two aft sections.In addition, there were to be no pictures taken of the flight crew, which includes Israel Air Force pilots and attendants from Arkia and El Al airlines, though many are actually no longer working regularly in aviation, and have moved on to other careers while Wing of Zion isn’t flying.Connecting phones to the plane’s USB ports was another no-no — also a security dictate.The bus ride through the airport took about five minutes. Wing of Zion was parked in the same remote section of the airport where the chartered El Al planes that prime ministers have used until now have parked.Seeing “State of Israel” emblazoned on the fuselage, just above the country’s seal, was certainly memorable. Government officials who had worked on the project in recent years were on hand, clearly delighted with the result of their work. They spoke with childlike enthusiasm as they pointed out their favorite features of the plane.The press climbed up the movable staircase leading into the back of the plane, and examined the interior. It was bright and clean, with wood-patterned dividers between the sections. The seats, arrayed in a 2-3-2 layout, were roomy, blue with white headrests.After the journalists came families of hostages and fallen soldiers who were joining the premier to fill up the second section, along with security guards. Around 9:30 a.m., Netanyahu’s convoy pulled up. He and his wife Sara shook hands with the families before the prime minister gave a statement to the members of the media laying out the purpose of his trip, and his intention to maintain bipartisan support for Israel as threats from Iran grow.The passengers then seated themselves and the plane was ready to depart. After takeoff, the excellent flight staff was certainly eager to accommodate the needs of the passengers, happy to make coffees and cocktails in between meals — including an iced coffee with soy milk for this lactose-intolerant correspondent. Trays of drinks and food were also ferried regularly from the rear kitchen to the prime minister’s sections up front.But the staff’s helpful attitude couldn’t hide the plane’s major flaw, as far as journalists are concerned: Though there is Wi-Fi onboard, it shares bandwidth with the prime minister’s own network. The crew controlled how much of that bandwidth was apportioned to the journalists, and it wasn’t much.During the flight, Netanyahu’s office posted pictures on Instagram of Sara Netanyahu reading documents while in blue pajamas. Meanwhile, journalists who had expected to be able to work during the long flight had to make do with sending messages to their editors by WhatsApp during the short periods the press internet was on. Access to websites or other internet functionality — a basic feature of transatlantic flights in the modern era — were not available.At times, the attendants would leave the curtains to the prime minister’s section open, allowing a view of Netanyahu sitting in his conference room. But at no point were journalists allowed to tour the front of the plane and let the public see what their tax shekels had purchased.Though the flight was long, there were some poignant moments.Yaakov Argamani, who was on the plane with his daughter Noa weeks after her rescue from Hamas captivity, organized a minyan so that he could say the Kaddish prayer for the deceased over his wife Liora, who died of brain cancer earlier this month. Journalists, relatives of hostages and the government point man for the hostages Gal Hirsch joined the service.Rabbi Yehoshua Shani, whose son Major Uri Shani fell in battle on October 7, said Kaddish with Argamani.The intimate familiarity that can develop immediately among Israelis was on full display, as mothers and grandmothers of hostages still held by Hamas spent much of the flight trying to come up with a shidduch — a match — for one of the journalists whom they discovered was single.Compared to the situation in Washington once Wing of Zion landed, the flight was fairly calm.The schedule for Netanyahu’s speech to Congress was set, but other highlights of the trip constantly moved around. He had expected to meet Biden on Tuesday, but with the president leaving COVID-19 isolation only on Tuesday afternoon, that meeting was pushed back to Thursday. Vice President Kamala Harris, who said she could not fly to DC to preside over Netanyahu’s speech as Senate President, also agreed to meet the premier on Thursday.Arrangements around the meeting with former president Donald Trump were more chaotic. After much speculation around where and if the meeting would take place, Trump posted on Truth Social that he would be hosting Netanyahu at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida on Wednesday.As journalists scrambled to understand how that might work on the same day as the speech, Trump took down the post and said he would actually meet Netanyahu on Thursday — the same day as the White House meetings with Biden and Harris.More speculation and scrambling.Finally, Trump said that, per Netanyahu’s request, the meeting would take place on Friday.That meant that Netanyahu would stay in the US over Shabbat, again at taxpayers’ expense. Many hostages’ families were expected to fly back commercially — paid for by the government — instead of waiting for Netanyahu’s flight back on Saturday night.And so Wing of Zion was slated to touch down back in Israel after its first trip with the prime minister on Sunday, back to a country at war and facing deep political divisions. Netanyahu, after five days in the US, will be expected to move a hostage deal forward and continue pursuing Hamas.If he manages to do both, he might have a chance of staying in office long enough to fly on Wing of Zion to more destinations — perhaps even Saudi Arabia.

Mike Johnson: Outrageous that Kamala Harris is boycotting' Israeli officials rap Harris for skipping PM Congress speech; House Speaker: Inexcusable-Vice president ‘unable to distinguish between good and evil,’ unnamed officials tell Telegraph; Harris, who as Veep would have presided over Netanyahu’s address, will be in Indiana-By ToI Staff Today, 12:50 pm-JUL 24,24

Unnamed Israeli officials reportedly slammed US Vice President Kamala Harris for her plans to skip Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s address to Congress on Wednesday.The vice president typically presides over such joint addresses. In her absence, Senate Foreign Relations Committee chairman Ben Cardin will preside over the address along with House Speaker Mike Johnson.The Israeli officials were quoted telling UK newspaper The Telegraph that Harris, who is running for president in November, is “unable to distinguish between good and evil,” and that skipping the prime minister’s speech is “not a way to treat an ally.”Harris, who is expected to receive her Democratic party’s nomination for president following President Joe Biden’s withdrawal from the race on Sunday, will instead be speaking at an event in Indiana for Zeta Phi Beta, a historically Black sorority founded at the vice president’s alma mater, Howard University.Harris will, however, meet with Netanyahu privately at the White House on Thursday.“We anticipate she will underscore her commitment to ensure Israel can defend itself from threats from Iran and Iranian-backed militias, including Lebanese Hezbollah and Hamas,” an aide to the vice president said in a statement about the planned sit-down with Netanyahu.“She will again condemn Hamas’ brutal terrorist attack on October 7, and horrific sexual violence. She will reiterate her deep concerns about the humanitarian situation in Gaza and the loss of innocent life,” the statement added.Harris did not present her plans as an intentional snub of Netanyahu — her trip “should not be interpreted as a change in her position with regard to Israel,” her campaign said — but she has received criticism from Republicans for declining to preside over the speech in Congress.hen-senator Kamala Harris, left, hosted by Prime Minister“It is outrageous to me and inexcusable that Kamala Harris is boycotting” the speech, said Speaker of the House Johnson, of Louisiana, on Tuesday.“This is an historic moment, it’s an important moment for the country, the gravity of the situation cannot be overstated, and yet, Kamala Harris will abandon her seat,” he said, noting that Harris, as vice president, would traditionally be seated at the rostrum during a joint session of Congress.“The idea that Democrats are making political calculations when our ally is in such dire straits, fighting for its very survival… is unconscionable to us,” Johnson added.Speaker of the House Mike Johnson, R-La., meets with reporters ahead of a Wednesday visit by Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu who will address a joint meeting of Congresman Senator John Cornyn of Texas on Tuesday similarly denounced Harris’s absence from the speech, describing the decision as “pandering to extremist elements in the Democratic party” and saying it was “disgraceful and embarrassing” for Harris to skip the address.The vice president has not signaled any significant departure from the current administration’s policy on the Middle East, but some observers have pointed to her sharp tone with respect to the humanitarian situation in Gaza as a sign that she may be harsher with Israel than Biden has been.Harris made headlines in March when she called for an “immediate ceasefire” in Gaza, though her call was in line with the administration’s position, supporting a hostage release in exchange for a pause in fighting. She also took aim at Israel for the problems delivering humanitarian aid to Gazans, saying in a speech, “No excuses.”And earlier this month, Harris said in an interview that pro-Palestinian, anti-Israel protesters on American college campuses were “showing exactly what the human emotion should be” about the war — though she noted that “there are things some of the protests are saying that I absolutely reject.”Netanyahu also plans to sit down with US President Joe Biden at the White House on Thursday, as well as meet with former president Donald Trump, Harris’s presumptive opponent in November, in Florida on Friday.

Some 70 Democrats boycotted Netanyahu speech, Tlaib protests during address-By Jacob Magid

Roughly 70 Democrats from the House and Senate are boycotting Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s ongoing speech to a joint session of Congress based on statements from those doing so and a rough head count of those in the audience.Netanyahu’s last speech to a joint session of Congress in 2015 saw 58 Democrats boycott.Palestinian-American lawmaker Rashida Tlaib, one of Israel’s fiercest critics in Congress, sat through Netanyahu’s speech, holding up a small protest sign reading “Guilty of Genocide” and “War criminal,” before being asked to stop by officials.Netanyahu lays out vision for ‘Abraham Alliance’ against Iran, says Israel and US will always stand together-By Lazar Berman

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu lays out his vision for a regional anti-Iran alliance, saying there was a “glimpse” of that alliance on April 14 as Iran launched its missile and drone attack against Israel.“Thank you President Biden for bringing that alliance together.”“I think we should call it the Abraham Alliance,” he says.He thanks former US president Trump for brokering the Abraham Accords, to GOP applause.He calls the assassination attempt on Trump “a dastardly attack” and says there is no place for political violence in democracies.He thanks Trump for recognizing Israeli control over the Golan Heights and for moving the embassy, adding that Jerusalem is “Israel’s eternal capital, never to be divided.”Netanyahu says he is “hopeful” about the future of Israel, praising the “powerful and vibrant” democracy Jews built. He also says that he is hopeful about America – “the beacon of liberty its founders envisioned back in 1776.”“I promise you this – no matter how long it takes Israel will not relent,”  Netanyahu says. “Israel will not bend.”“We will fight,” he says, saying Israel will achieve a “victory of liberty over tyranny.”He says that by working with Arab partners, they can transform the Middle East.He says Israel will always be America’s friend in the region. “Together, we shall secure a brilliant future for both our nations.”“God bless America, God bless Israel,” he finishes to a standing ovation, as Democrats stream quickly out of the room. Republicans, and about half the Democrats, stand and applaud.

Israeli anthem, players jeered as soccer team kicks off Olympic Games amid high security-By AP

Israel’s national anthem is loudly jeered before its soccer team kicked off play at the Paris Olympics against Mali tonight.The game began with a massive security presence outside the stadium amid an increasingly strained international climate that has Paris’ safety efforts squarely in the spotlight.The Israel team arrived under a heavy police escort, with motorbike riders at the front and around a dozen riot police vans following behind. Armed police officers patrolled the Parc des Princes stadium, one with a rifle resting on his shoulder.The atmosphere outside the venue is calm. Fans from both countries mingled, holding up flags and posing for photos.Mali fans sang proudly when their anthem was played first. When it came to Israel’s anthem, boos and whistles immediately rang out. The stadium speaker system playing the anthems then got notably louder in what seemed like an effort to drown out the jeers.Once play began, Israeli players were booed each time they touched the ball.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu lays out his vision for a regional anti-Iran alliance, saying there was a “glimpse” of that alliance on April 14 as Iran launched its missile and drone attack against Israel.“Thank you President Biden for bringing that alliance together.”“I think we should call it the Abraham Alliance,” he says.He thanks former US president Trump for brokering the Abraham Accords, to GOP applause.He calls the assassination attempt on Trump “a dastardly attack” and says there is no place for political violence in democracies.He thanks Trump for recognizing Israeli control over the Golan Heights and for moving the embassy, adding that Jerusalem is “Israel’s eternal capital, never to be divided.”Netanyahu says he is “hopeful” about the future of Israel, praising the “powerful and vibrant” democracy Jews built. He also says that he is hopeful about America – “the beacon of liberty its founders envisioned back in 1776.”“I promise you this – no matter how long it takes Israel will not relent,”  Netanyahu says. “Israel will not bend.”“We will fight,” he says, saying Israel will achieve a “victory of liberty over tyranny.”He says that by working with Arab partners, they can transform the Middle East.He says Israel will always be America’s friend in the region. “Together, we shall secure a brilliant future for both our nations.”“God bless America, God bless Israel,” he finishes to a standing ovation, as Democrats stream quickly out of the room. Republicans, and about half the Democrats, stand and applaud.

Netanyahu says Israel will retain security control of Gaza, calls for deradicalization of population like in Germany, Japan after WWII-By Lazar Berman

Netanyahu says the war in Gaza would end tomorrow if Hamas “surrenders, disarms and returns all the hostages.But if it doesn’t, “Israel will fight until we destroy Hamas’s military capabilities, end its rule in Gaza and bring all our hostages home.”“That’s what total victory means and we will settle for nothing less,” he says.The day after we defeat Hamas a new Gaza can emerge, he says. “My vision for that day is for a demilitarized and deradicalized Gaza.”He says Israel “does not seek to resettle Gaza,” but must maintain overall security control for the foreseeable future to make sure Gaza never again poses a threat to Israel.Gaza should have a civilian administration run by Palestinians who don’t seek to destroy Israel, he says. “That’s not too much to ask.”The next generation of Palestinians must learn to live alongside Jews, he says, calling for deradicalization of the Palestinians in Gaza and comparing that imperative need to what happened in Japan and Germany after World War II.The demilitarization and deradicalization of Gaza can lead to security, prosperity and peace, he says, saying that this is his “vision” for Gaza.

Netanyahu singles out fight against Iran; says US, Israel fighting together-By Lazar Berman

Iran is behind all the turmoil in the region and beyond, says Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.He recalls that Ayatollah Khomeini, the founder of the Islamic Republic, pledged to export the Islamic Revolution to the entire world.America, “the guardian of Western civilization” and “the world’s greatest power,” stands in the way of Iran’s plan to impose radical Islam on the world.Iran sees America as its greatest enemy, he says.“Israel is merely a tool. The main war, the real war, is with America,” Netanyahu says, quoting Iran’s foreign minister.Netanyahu lays out Iranian attacks against US servicemen and diplomats in Lebanon, Africa, Iraq, and the US.Iran understands that to truly challenge America, it must first conquer the Middle East.But “one proud, pro-American democracy” stands in the way – Israel.“For Iran, Israel is first, America is next. When Israel fights Hamas, we’re fighting Iran. When Israel fights Hezbollah, we’re fighting Iran. When we’re fighting the Houthis, we’re fighting Iran.”When Israel acts to prevent Iran from achieving a nuclear weapon, it’s not only protecting Israel, he tells Congress, “we’re protecting you.”Israel’s enemies are America’s enemies, he says, and “our victory will be your victory.”Netanyahu highlights Israel’s fight against Iran’s proxies.Victory over Hamas is close, says Netanyahu.Turning to Hezbollah in Lebanon he says that, diplomatically or otherwise, “Israel will do whatever it must do” to restore security to the northern border and bring 80,000 displaced Israelis back to their homes.He describes the Yemeni Houthi drone attack last week and Israel’s strike in response. “Those who attack Israel will pay a very heavy price,” he says.“I know that America has our back,” he says. “I thank you for it — all sides of the aisle.”He thanks the US for “generous military assistance,” and points out the “critical intelligence” that have helped protect both countries. “We help keep American boots off the ground,” he says.“I deeply appreciate America’s support,” he says, adding that quick US aid can bring a quick end to the war.He cites Winston Churchill: “Give us the tools and we’ll finish the job.”“Give us the tools faster, and we’ll finish the job faster,” he says to GOP applause.

25 Among the slain they prepare a resting place for Elam with all her hordes, with her graves all around her. All of them are uncircumcised, slain by the sword, although their terror was once spread in the land of the living. They bear their disgrace with those who descend to the Pit. They are placed among the slain.
26 Meshech and Tubal (RUSSIA) are there with all their multitudes, with their graves all around them. All of them are uncircumcised, slain by the sword, because they spread their terror in the land of the living.
27 They do not lie down with the fallen warriors of old, who went down to Sheol with their weapons of war, whose swords were placed under their heads, whose shields rested on their bones, although the terror of the mighty was once in the land of the living.
28 But you too will be shattered and lie down among the uncircumcised, with those slain by the sword.

Then I saw that the second angel had a sickle in his hand, such as is used in harvesting.The second angel said: "Harvest time has come in Israel and the countries all the way to Iran."I saw those countries in a few split seconds."All of Turkey and those [inaudible] 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. I saw blood all over these countries. And I saw fire; Nuclear weapons 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. Water shall be scarce all over the Middle East. Rivers shall dry up, and men will fight for water in those countries."The angel showed me that the United Nations shall be broken in pieces because of the crisis in the Middle East. There shall be no more United Nations. The angel with the sickle shall reap the harvest.

Russia and Kyrgyzstan sign radioactive decontamination deal.

Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan, July 24 (AFP) Jul 24, 2024-Kyrgyzstan ratified an agreement with Russia on Wednesday for the mass decontamination of radioactive areas that pose a threat to the local population.The mountainous central Asian country, a former Soviet republic, is still suffering the environmental consequences of uranium and other heavy metals for mining during the Soviet era.Ninety-two sites contain more than 300 million cubic metres (10.5 billion cubic feet) of toxic and radioactive waste."The agreement between the Kyrgyz and Russian governments to cooperate in the rehabilitation of territories in Kyrgyzstan affected by uranium extraction and the mining industry has been ratified," President Sadyr Japarov's office said in a statement.The agreement aims to "ensure the safety of the population living in areas where there is waste from former uranium mines."Without decontamination, natural disasters like landslides -- which are frequent in the region -- could send the waste spilling into rivers that traverse the entire Central Asian region, potentially contaminating millions.Kyrgyzstan held a separate ceremony on Wednesday marking the removal of the final 55 tonnes of Samin, a toxic rocket fuel component, from a village near the capital Bishkek -- another chemical waste hangover from the Soviet Union."The disposal of the rocket fuel component 'Samin' will significantly reduce the risk of an environmental emergency and enhance the safety of the local population," Deputy Defence Minister Emil Osmonov said.The fuel will be transported to Germany to be destroyed next month, the Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe, which supported the work, said in a statement.Russian state-run nuclear giant Rosatom is also running nuclear waste decontamination efforts in neighbouring ex-Soviet countries Kazakhstan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan.The EU and World Bank have both allocated funds to help restoration efforts.

Nine arrested during London protest demanding ban on weapons sales to Israel-Workers for a Free Palestine accuse Foreign Secretary David Lammy of dragging his feet after he said he will assess the issue with ‘full accountability and transparency’-By Agencies and ToI Staff Today, 7:58 pm-JUL 24,24

LONDON — British police on Wednesday arrested nine people during a protest against arms exports to Israel that briefly blocked the street outside the foreign ministry, highlighting pressure on the new Labour government over its stance on the Israel-Hamas war in Gaza.Anti-Israel protesters in Britain have been campaigning for a government ban on arms sales to the country in light of its war against Hamas in Gaza, which broke out with the terror group’s invasion and massacre in southern Israel on October 7.Last week new Foreign Minister David Lammy, who has said he wants a balanced position on Israel and Gaza, said a blanket ban on arms exports to Israel would not be right, but he would follow a quasi-judicial process in assessing whether sales of offensive weapons that could be used in Gaza could proceed.London’s Metropolitan Police said protesters arrived outside Britain’s Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office and blocked pedestrian and vehicle access. Police then said the protest could only continue if it left the central arch of the street clear.“When the group failed to comply with the conditions, officers intervened and made nine arrests, quickly restoring access,” a Met Police spokesperson said.Pictures shared online showed the protesters blocking the central arch with a large banner reading “Genocide Made in Britain.”We have shut down the Foreign Office this morning pic.twitter.com/OGRmoGU3FT— Rangzen (@revoltinghippie) July 24, 2024-While in opposition, Lammy said earlier this year that the government should suspend the sale of UK arms if there were a clear risk they might be used in a serious breach of humanitarian law.Now in government, he said last week that he had requested an assessment of the legal situation on his first day in office, and hoped to be able to communicate any decisions with “full accountability and transparency.”Labour was elected with a huge majority earlier this month but lost some seats to anti-Israel candidates.Campaign group Workers for a Free Palestine, which organized Wednesday’s protest, said that was a sign the government should take a stronger stance on restricting arms sales and called on Lammy to “practice what he preached in opposition.”Speaking to the UK’s The Guardian, an unnamed protester said it was “clear after a fortnight that the government could have acted by now, but is instead prevaricating as hundreds of Palestinians in Gaza die.”The Hamas-run Gaza health ministry says more than 39,000 people in the Strip have been killed or are presumed dead in the fighting so far, though the toll cannot be verified and does not differentiate between civilians and fighters. Israel says it has killed some 15,000 combatants in battle and some 1,000 terrorists inside Israel during the October 7 attack.In total, some 1,200 people were killed in the Hamas onslaught in southern Israel, the majority of them civilians, and 251 were seized as hostages.It is believed that 116 of the hostages abducted by Hamas on October 7 remain in Gaza, including the bodies of 44 confirmed dead by the IDF. Hamas is also holding two Israeli civilians who entered the Strip of their own accord in 2014, and the bodies of two IDF soldiers killed in 2014.While the UK’s Conservative government was a strong supporter of Israel’s right to defend itself following the October 7 terror onslaught, Reuters found in June that the value of Britain’s approvals of new arms licenses dropped sharply after the start of the war, with the value of permits granted for the sale of military equipment to its ally falling by more than 95% to a 13-year low.Labour has yet to reverse any major policy regarding Israel that had been implemented by the Conservative government, with the exception of restoring funding to UNRWA.The UK halted funding to the UN agency for Palestinian refugees back in January, following accusations by Israel that some agency staff were involved in Hamas’s October 7 attack and many more had ties to terror groups.Lammy informed Parliament of the decision last Friday, and said he was reassured that the agency, which provides education, health and other services to millions of Palestinians in Gaza and elsewhere, had taken steps to ensure it has the “highest standards of neutrality,” including improving vetting.Describing UNRWA as the backbone of Gaza’s aid operations, he said the UK would provide 21 million pounds ($27 million) in new funding to the agency.

Thousands protest near US Capitol against Netanyahu’s speech to Congress-Demonstrators call for Israeli leader to be arrested on war crimes charges, chant that ‘resistance is justified’; Capitol Police say they deployed pepper spray to push back rioters-By Agencies and Jacob Magid-Today, 10:20 pm-JUL 24,24

WASHINGTON — Thousands of anti-Israel protesters gathered on Wednesday about half a mile from the Capitol ahead of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s address to a joint session of Congress.Minutes before the address began, the Capitol Police tweeted that a crowd of protesters demonstrating outside the building became violent, leading officers to deploy pepper spray in order to push the rioters back behind the police line.The demonstrators chanted for an intifada (or popular uprising) and declared that “resistance is justified when people are occupied.” One of the protesters held up a sign calling on “Satanyahu” to “return to Europe.”A stage decked with banners included one declaring the Israeli leader a “Wanted War Criminal” in reference to an arrest warrant sought by International Criminal Court prosecutors.Actress Susan Sarandon took to the stage and condemned the death toll in Gaza: “No one is free until everyone is free,” she said.Nearby, demonstrators placed nearly 30 human-size cardboard coffins wrapped in Palestinian flags in memory of those killed in the war in Gaza. Traffic was barred from several roads near the Capitol.“I want all aid [to] be suspended to Israel due to its actions in Gaza,” said Bradley Cullinan, who said he traveled to the area from Columbus, Ohio, 400 miles (640 kilometers) away.Protesters gathered on Wednesday were calling for a ceasefire while also criticizing Netanyahu’s appearance in the United States.“Seek peace and pursue it,” read one sign, quoting a Bible verse, while others were designed as criminal “wanted” signs, with photos of Netanyahu in place of a mugshot. “Arrest that war criminal,” read another. Several erected a large effigy of US President Joe Biden with blood dripping from its mouth and devil horns.“We are horrified by the destruction of the health system in Gaza,” Karameh Kuemmerle, of the organization Doctors Against Genocide, who traveled to the protest from Boston, told AFP. “And we are here to show our opposition to having the criminal Netanyahu come to our capital and being greeted by the politicians who sent him weapons to kill children in Gaza.”Members of the fringe ultra-Orthodox Neturei Karta group carried Palestinian flags and signs reading “Free Palestine” and “Anti-Zionism is not antisemitism,” while a group of younger protesters danced to Arabic music and carried large banners reading “Stop Arming Israel” and “Stop War Crimes in Gaza.”Dozens of Democratic lawmakers said they’d skip Netanyahu’s speech to Congress, expressing dismay over the thousands of civilian deaths and the humanitarian crisis from Israel’s campaign in Gaza.The war in Gaza began on October 7 when thousands of Palestinian terrorists broke through the border to slaughter some 1,200 Israelis, most of them civilians, and kidnap 251 to Gaza.The enclave’s Hamas-run health ministry has said at least 39,000 Palestinians have been killed since the start of Israel’s military offensive. The toll cannot be verified and does not differentiate between civilians and fighters.

Iran condemns UN expert report on 1980s ‘atrocity crimes’Iranian spokesman says detailed report by special rapporteur Javaid Rehman, alleging ‘crimes against humanity of murder and extermination as well as genocide,’ is ‘fake news’-By AFP Today, 3:22 pm-JUL 24,24

TEHRAN, Iran — Iran on Wednesday condemned a report by a United Nations expert that accused the country of “atrocity crimes” against minorities and killings in the 1980s.Javaid Rehman, the UN’s independent special rapporteur on the rights situation in Iran, on Monday called for a probe into allegations Iran committed summary, arbitrary and extrajudicial executions in 1981-1982 and in 1988.He said in a statement, after releasing a report with his detailed findings, that the actions “amounted to crimes against humanity of murder and extermination, as well as genocide.”Iran’s foreign ministry spokesman Nasser Kanaani dismissed the report as an attempt by Tehran’s “enemies to tarnish the image of the Islamic Republic.”“The claims lack any legal basis and are completely rejected,” said Kanaani, accusing Rehman of “abusing his position” and spreading “false news.”In his report, Rehman said there should be “no impunity for such gross human rights violations, regardless of when they were committed.”“The Iranian regime and its leaders should not be allowed to escape the consequences of their crimes against humanity and genocide,” he added.The expert, whose mandate ends on July 31, said that “the targeting and victimizing of religious, ethnic and linguistic minorities and political opponents continued with complete impunity during, and since, the first decade of the establishment of the Islamic Republic in 1979.”He highlighted in particular attacks on the Baha’i — Iran’s largest non-Muslim minority — which he said was “targeted with genocidal intent and persecution.”In response, Kanaani said: “Iran reserves its legal right to protest this wrong process in some human rights institutions.”

Soldier seriously injured in Hezbollah rocket attack on northern border-Military says barrages and explosive-laden drones fired at Mount Dov, Kiryat Shmona, Galilee Panhandle; drones launched from Iraq intercepted by fighter jets-By Emanuel Fabian-Today, 10:19 am-jul 24,24

The Israel Defense Forces said Wednesday that a soldier was seriously injured a day earlier by rocket fire from Lebanon on the Mount Dov area, as the Hezbollah terror group claimed a number of attacks on communities and outposts along the northern border.Rocket and drone alert sirens sounded in northern communities near the border with Lebanon multiple times throughout the day.The IDF said Tuesday evening that several projectiles had been fired at Mount Dov — which houses several military bases and no towns — and some 15 rockets were launched from Lebanon at the Kiryat Shmona area. Earlier in the day, a barrage of rockets was fired from Lebanon at the Galilee Panhandle.Some of the rockets were intercepted by the Iron Dome system.Additionally, there were several drone attacks on northern Israel. According to the IDF, several explosive drones impacted the Mount Meron area while others were intercepted.The military said troops responded to the attacks by shelling launch sites with artillery, and fighter jets struck a Hezbollah rocket launcher in Kfarhamam, infrastructure in Ayta ash-Shab, and an observation post in Khiam.Additionally, a drone strike was carried out against a Hezbollah operative in southern Lebanon’s Tallouseh, the IDF said. According to the military, the operative had been identified leaving a site from which rockets were launched at the Galilee Panhandle.Also on Tuesday, the IDF said that it struck a car in southern Lebanon’s Shaqra that was transporting several Hezbollah operatives.On Wednesday, the military said fighter jets struck a building in southern Lebanon’s Chihine that the IDF says was used by Hezbollah to fire rockets at Israel.Additionally, a Hezbollah weapons depot was struck in Kfarhamam, the military said. The IDF published footage of the strike, and said that secondary blasts seen in the clip indicated the presence of numerous weapons at the site.Meanwhile, Education Minister Yoav Kisch told the heads of local authorities that students from northern communities evacuated because of the war would not be able to return to school in their hometowns in September and would instead continue to attend schools elsewhere in Israel.Kisch wrote in a statement that this was due to the “security complexities” in the region, which has been subject to incessant rocket fire and drone attacks by the Hezbollah terror group from Lebanon since the beginning of the war against Hamas in Gaza on October 7.Calling the decision not to start the school year in the affected northern communities “regrettable,” Kisch called on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to “act now, strongly, against the state of Lebanon.”Of 60,000 civilians relocated from northern Israel at the outset of the war, 14,600 are children, scattered in kindergartens and schools or makeshift premises throughout the country. The evacuated residents do not yet know when they will be able to return to their homes.Since October 8, Hezbollah-led forces have attacked Israeli communities and military posts along the border on a near-daily basis, with the group saying it is doing so to support Palestinians in Gaza amid the war against Hamas there.The fighting in the north has resulted in 12 civilian deaths on the Israeli side, as well as the deaths of 18 IDF soldiers and reservists. There have also been several attacks from Syria, without any injuries.Hezbollah has named 374 members who have been killed by Israel during the ongoing skirmishes, mostly in Lebanon but some also in Syria. In Lebanon, another 68 operatives from other terror groups, a Lebanese soldier, and dozens of civilians have been killed.Fighter jets down drones launched from Iraq-Overnight, Israeli fighter jets downed two drones heading toward Israel from the east, the military said Wednesday morning.The IDF has described past attacks launched from Iraq as “from the east.”According to the military, the drone did not enter Israeli airspace, and therefore sirens did not sound in any towns.The IDF’s statement came shortly after the Iran-backed Islamic Resistance in Iraq claimed to have launched drones at a “vital target” in Israel’s southernmost city of Eilat. It said the attack was in support of Palestinians in Gaza.The Islamic Resistance in Iraq has claimed dozens of drone attacks on Israel amid the Israel-Hamas war in Gaza, with the IDF reporting downing many of them. Many of the militia’s claims have been exaggerated, but in one case it managed to hit an Israeli Navy base in Eilat, causing damage.Along with the Islamic Resistance in Iraq, Iran-backed groups in Yemen and Syria have claimed to have launched dozens of drones at Israel during the ongoing war sparked by Hamas’s devastating October 7 terror onslaught. Last week, a man was killed in a drone attack on Tel Aviv by Yemen’s Houthis.Iran itself also carried out an unprecedented attack on Israel in April with hundreds of drones and missiles.Times of Israel staff contributed to this report.

Egypt showing flexibility on IDF staying along its Gaza border to block arms smuggling-Cairo is moving toward Israeli position despite public declarations, which could harm Hamas effort to ensure total IDF retreat as part of hostage deal, officials tell ToI-By Jacob Magid-Today, 10:12 am-jul 24,24

After long rejecting the idea in public, Cairo is privately moving toward allowing IDF troops to remain in a key border strip used by Hamas to smuggle weapons from Egypt into Gaza, a senior Israeli official and a second official familiar with the matter told The Times of Israel on Tuesday.The potential shift in Egypt’s position would likely complicate Hamas’s standing in the ongoing hostage negotiations, as the terror group is demanding that Israel withdraw from the Philadelphi Corridor as part of the staged ceasefire deal.Israeli negotiators since May had been discussing withdrawing from the roughly 14-kilometer (9-mile) border stretch, with the US leading trilateral discussions with Israel and Egypt about the creation of an underground wall along the corridor at the south of the Strip and the installation of a surveillance system to thwart any weapons smuggling into Gaza, the two officials said.But seeking to capitalize off a boosted position on the battlefield earlier this month, Netanyahu shifted course and declared that the IDF remaining in Philadelphi was nonnegotiable.The demand appeared to contradict the hostage proposal the prime minister approved in May, which envisioned Israel withdrawing from the entirety of the Gaza Strip in the second of three six-week phases of the ceasefire deal.A member of Israel’s hostage negotiating team along with an Arab mediator expressed concern to The Times of Israel earlier this month that the new demand from Netanyahu — along with another new one, to create a mechanism to prevent the smuggling of weapons into northern Gaza — risked jeopardizing the hostage talks.Israel took over the Gaza side of the Philadelphi Corridor in May as part of its offensive in Gaza’s southernmost city of Rafah. In the months leading up to that operation, Egypt warned that it risked harming the peace treaty Cairo and Jerusalem signed in 1979.Egypt initially leveraged its role as one of the mediators in the hostage talks to try and push Israel to withdraw from the corridor as part of the ceasefire deal. But the Israeli official explained that Cairo has gradually relaxed this effort in recent weeks, as Jerusalem has hardened its negotiating stance.“They too don’t want Hamas to resume smuggling on the border,” the Israeli official said of Egypt.The official clarified that an agreement has not yet been reached and that Israel is seeking to remain in the Philadelphi Corridor for an extended period, though not permanently.Smuggling tunnels were dug under the Gaza-Egypt border to get around the Israeli-Egyptian blockade imposed after Hamas took over Gaza in 2007. Some of the tunnels were large enough for vehicles. Hamas brought in weapons and supplies, and Gaza residents smuggled in commercial goods, from livestock to construction materials.That changed over the past decade, as Egypt battled Islamic State militants in Sinai. The Egyptian military cracked down on the tunnels and destroyed hundreds of them. The tunnels are not all gone, though, and Israel says it has uncovered dozens since entering the corridor in May.While Egypt has begun moving toward Israel’s position regarding the Philadelphi Corridor, Israel has inched toward Cairo’s stance regarding the management of the nearby Rafah Border Crossing, the officials said.Egypt shuttered Rafah after Israel took over the Gaza side in early May, conditioning its reopening on the Palestinian Authority replacing the IDF at the crossing.Israel initially rejected any PA involvement in the management of the gate, with Netanyahu likening the Ramallah-based government to Hamas and vowing not to give the former a foothold in the Strip.But recent weeks have also seen Jerusalem rethink its position on that key issue, as Netanyahu’s circle begins to recognize that the PA is the only viable alternative at the moment, even as it pushes for major reforms in Ramallah, the officials said.Moreover, reopening the Rafah Crossing is integral to the success of the hostage deal, given that the latest proposal specifies that wounded Hamas fighters will be allowed to travel through the gate to receive medical treatment during the first phase of the ceasefire.Egypt’s embassy in Washington did not respond to a request for comment.The Associated Press contributed to this report.

Houthis threaten to attack Israeli ports, gas fields after weekend strike on Hodeida-Yemeni terrorist group releases a propaganda video supposedly showing the Jaffa drone that was launched at Tel Aviv last week, killing an Israeli man-By Gianluca Pacchiani-and Emanuel Fabian-23 July 2024, 10:32 pm

The Iran-backed Houthis are preparing to strike new sensitive targets in Israel and the region, according to sources from Yemen’s capital Sana’a quoted by the Lebanese Hezbollah-affiliated daily Al-Akhbar on Tuesday.Sources close to the Yemeni militia quoted by Al-Akhbar said that in response to the Israeli retaliatory strike on the Houthi-controlled Hodeida port in western Yemen on Saturday, itself a response to a deadly Houthi drone attack on Tel Aviv, Houthi military leaders have added new items to their “target bank.”The Yemeni rebel group — in cooperation with other members of the so called Axis of Resistance of Iran-backed paramilitary groups in Lebanon, Iraq and Syria — was said to be planning to hit the Israeli Mediterranean ports of Ashdod, Ashkelon and Haifa, in addition to the Red Sea port of Eilat.The Israeli gas fields in the Mediterranean were also reportedly in the Houthis’ crosshairs, as well as oil tankers transporting fuel from Azerbaijan and Kazakhstan to Israel through the Eastern Mediterranean.The Houthis were also said to be planning to target maritime trade in the Mediterranean Sea and the Indian Ocean, with the rebel group reportedly aiming to use long-range projectiles to target “enemy maritime trade” directed toward the Cape of Good Hope along African coasts.The route is much longer than the one through the Suez Canal, but has become increasingly popular since the Houthis began targeting ships transiting through the Red Sea with alleged connections to Israel, the United States, or Britain.The Yemeni terrorist group says it has been targeting ships in solidarity with the Palestinians in Gaza where Israel has been waging a war against Hamas since the terrorist organization’s unprecedented October 7 attack, in which some 1,200 people, mostly civilians, were killed and 251 were taken hostage.The US and Britain have carried out retaliatory strikes against the Houthis in Yemen, but Saturday’s attack on Hodeida was the first time Israel has taken direct action against the organization since it began its attacks in October.The Houthis also released a propaganda video on Tuesday showing what they say is the drone that was launched at Tel Aviv in the attack last week.The so-called Jaffa drone struck a residential building in the central Israeli city early Friday, killing a man and wounding others.The video shows a Jaffa drone in an exhibition, and ostensibly the moment the one that struck Tel Aviv was launched.The IDF identified the drone as a modified Iranian-made Samad-3 drone.The drone had been adjusted to have a much further range than normal, allowing it to make a trip of some 2,600 kilometers — flying over Africa and Egypt, and then some of the Mediterranean — to reach Israel from the west.

Far-right minister slammed for seeming to equate same-sex marriage with incest-After Knesset interviewer protests ‘unpleasant’ suggestion, Yitzhak Wasserlauf clarifies he meant love is not a justification-By ToI Staff 23 July 2024, 7:21 pm

Far-right Negev, Galilee and National Resilience Minister Yitzhak Wasserlauf appeared to compare same-sex marriage to incest on Tuesday, provoking outrage from LGBTQ rights groups.Wasserlauf, a lawmaker from the Otzma Yehudit party, was asked during an interview by the Knesset television channel why gay couples should not receive all the benefits that heterosexual couples receive.Wasserlauf responded, “I will answer you with a question, can a father and daughter get married?”When the interviewer responded that they could not, noting that it was incest, Wasserlauf asked whether siblings could get married, to which the interviewer again responded that they could not.“Why? Is this exploitation of a minor? Why can’t they get married? They love each other,” Wasserlauf pondered rhetorically.Asked if he was comparing an incestuous relationship between siblings to a same-sex couple, Wasserlauf answered: “You said people who love each other, you used that argument.”“The comparison you make is unpleasant,” the interviewer said. However, Wasserlauf denied he was equating the two situations, saying his point was to argue that two people being in love cannot justify every kind of relationship.“The difference between us is where we draw the line,” he said.In response, The Aguda – The Association for LGBTQ Equality in Israel, told Channel 12: “It is simply sad that such ignorant and benighted statements come from a person in a public position who benefits from our tax money.”Havruta, a support group for religious gay people, said in a statement, “Those who choose to reduce people to some sort of comparison without a grasp on reality should examine their own morality, because the result of Wasserlauf’s attitude is conversion therapy, discrimination, hatred and violence.”The Israel Gay Youth said in a statement that “more than being outrageous, Wasserlauf’s remarks are ridiculous and show immense ignorance” and that the minister had a “distorted mindset” for drawing the comparison.A statement from Wasserlauf’s office later reiterated that he was not comparing gay marriage to incest, but rather “the logic offered by the interviewer who claims that two people who love each other deserve rights.”Religious institutions control marriage for each of Israel’s constituent faiths, and the Jewish rabbinate hews to Orthodoxy. Thus, LGBTQ couples — like other couples not recognized by the country’s religious establishment — cannot marry in the country.But by law, such relationships are nonetheless recognized as legal for the purposes of benefits, inheritance, parenting, adoption, and other rights if the couple is wed abroad, or in certain cases if the couple can simply prove a longstanding common-law relationship.

UN chief welcomes China-brokered accord seeking Palestinian unity-by AFP Staff Writers.

United Nations, United States (AFP) July 23, 2024-UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres welcomed Tuesday an accord brokered by China seeking reconciliation between Hamas and other Palestinian factions to form a national unity government in Gaza."I think all steps towards unity are to be welcomed and encouraged," his spokesman Stephane Dujarric said, adding that Guterres "very much welcomes the signing of the Beijing Declaration by the Palestinian factions."Earlier on Tuesday, Hamas announced it had signed the agreement in Beijing with other Palestinian organizations -- including rivals Fatah -- to work together for "national unity."Hamas and Fatah are long-term rivals and fought a brief but bloody war in 2007 in which the former seized control of Gaza.Fatah continues to dominate the Palestinian Authority, which has limited administrative control over urban areas of the Israeli-occupied West Bank.Israel swiftly slammed the Beijing-brokered deal, with Foreign Minister Israel Katz insisting that "Hamas rule will be crushed" and accusing Palestinian president Mahmud Abbas, a leader of Fatah, of embracing the group whose October 7 attacks triggered the war in Gaza.The text of the deal outlines plans for "a temporary national unity government by agreement of the Palestinian factions" which would "exercise its authority and powers over all Palestinian territories" -- the Gaza Strip as well the West Bank, including Israeli-annexed east Jerusalem.Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi said the factions had agreed to set up an "interim national reconciliation government" to govern post-war Gaza.Speaking at the UN, spokesperson Dujarric said unity amongst the Palestinian factions was crucial."Palestinian unity... is crucial for peace and security and for advancing the aspirations of the Palestinian people for self determination and for fully independent, democratic, contiguous, viable and sovereign Palestinian state," he said.burs-aha/dw

WEEK OF DANIEL 9:27 WE KNOW ITS 7 YRS

The King of Jerusalem[1] was the supreme ruler of the Kingdom of Jerusalem, the Crusader state founded by Christian princes in 1099 when the First Crusade took the city.Godfrey of Bouillon, the first ruler of the Kingdom of Jerusalem, himself refused the title of king, and instead chose the title "Defender of the Holy Sepulchre". Thus, the title of king was only introduced for his successor, King Baldwin I in 1100. The city of Jerusalem was lost in 1187, but the Kingdom of Jerusalem survived (also known as the "Second Kingdom of Jerusalem"), moving its capital to Acre in 1191. The city of Jerusalem was re-captured in the Sixth Crusade, during 1229–39 and 1241–44. The Kingdom of Jerusalem was finally dissolved with the fall of Acre and the end of the Crusades in the Holy Land in 1291.After the Crusader States ceased to exist, the title of King of Jerusalem was claimed by a number of European noble houses descended from the kings of Cyprus or the kings of Naples. The (purely ceremonial) title of King of Jerusalem is currently used by Felipe VI of Spain. It was claimed by Otto von Habsburg as Habsburg pretender, and by the kings of Italy until 1946.

Israeli negotiating team postpones departure to Qatar for hostage talks-Team had been scheduled to fly out Thursday, but will now only do so next week; official source says delay meant to allow Netanyahu to first discuss matters with Biden on Thursday-By ToI Staff Today, 10:36 pm-july 24,24

An Israeli delegation of negotiators will not travel to Qatar on Thursday to discuss a hostage release and ceasefire deal with Hamas in Gaza as previously planned, delaying their departure, a senior Israeli official said Wednesday.The official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said the reason for the delay was the postponement of the meeting between Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and US President Joe Biden from Tuesday to Thursday, adding that the premier intends to discuss the emerging deal with the president to weigh how to proceed.The source also said the negotiating team will depart for talks after the meeting, but did not say when. Hebrew media outlets reported the delegation may only leave next week.The source emphasized that negotiators are continuing conversations with Arab mediators remotely despite the delay.Families of hostages held by Hamas expressed outrage at the report that the delegation’s trip was delayed.“Instead of proclaiming before Congress that he accepts the deal on the table, Netanyahu is stopping the deal from going ahead for personal reasons,” said Einav Zangauker, mother of Hamas hostage Matan Zangauker.“Even if we learn of additional dead hostages in the Hamas tunnels, he will continue on his public relations tour of the US and continue dragging his feet,” she added.Earlier in the day, Zangauker, who published footage on Tuesday of her son’s kidnapping, said “almost 60 families” have seen footage of their loved ones from when they were abducted or early in their captivity, adding that families should all be allowed to publicize the material if they want to as part of the struggle for the hostages’ release.The hostage families held a protest march from Dizengoff Square to Hostages Square in Tel Aviv Wednesday to watch Netanyahu’s address, followed by a rally.Meanwhile, National Unity party chief Benny Gantz called on Netanyahu to “put your money where your mouth is” regarding a hostage deal, arguing that the prime minister was delaying a deal for political reasons.“The outline we drew up for the return of the hostages in the war cabinet about two months ago,” which was subsequently publicly presented by US President Joe Biden, “could have been advanced weeks ago and it should be implemented in a short period of time,” Gantz told reporters in the Knesset.“The hostages do not have another day, and there is not another minute. Since the previous outline, we have lost a quarter of the living hostages,” he said.“We have a moral obligation to return everyone — the living, as well as those who died — to their families. The fact that the Israeli delegation has been waiting without instructions for over a week, because at the political level, there are those who are waiting for the recess of the Knesset in order to move forward, is the painful proof that political considerations have penetrated the holiest of holies of Israel’s security and matters of life and death.”Netanyahu is believed to fear agreeing to a deal will cause his far-right partners Itamar Ben Gvir and Bezalel Smotrich to bolt the coalition, as they have warned they will do, as they fear it will end the war before Hamas is fully defeated.“Mr. Prime Minister, if you stand behind the outline we agreed on together” then it is time to “put your money where your mouth is,” he said, switching briefly to English.“If you do not intend to return the hostages because you think the plan is not good enough and cannot guarantee Israel’s security, stand up before the citizens of Israel and tell them the truth — however complex, difficult and painful it may be. Political considerations must not come before the security of the country, its resilience, and the return of the hostages,” Gantz said.He emphasized that Netanyahu “will receive full backing from the people, and political backing as well” if he approves the proposal, allowing Israel to pivot to restoring security in the north.During the Hamas October 7 onslaught, which saw some 1,200 people killed, most of whom were civilians, Hamas terrorists also kidnapped 251 people.It is believed that 120 hostages remain in Gaza, including the bodies of 44 confirmed dead by the IDF.The proposed deal would first include a “full and complete” six-week ceasefire that would see the release of a number of hostages, including women, the elderly, and the wounded, in exchange for the release of hundreds of Palestinian prisoners. During these 42 days, Israeli forces would also withdraw from densely populated areas of Gaza and allow the return of displaced people to their homes in northern Gaza.Over that period, Hamas, Israel, and mediators would also negotiate the terms of the second phase that could see the release of the remaining male hostages, both civilians and soldiers. In return, Israel would free additional Palestinian prisoners and detainees. The third phase would see the return of any remaining hostages, including bodies of dead captives, and the start of a years-long reconstruction project.

Taiwan's annual war games cut back by incoming Typhoon Gaemi-by Katie TAM with Justin CHAN in Taipei

Hualien, Taiwan (AFP) July 23, 2024-Taiwan cancelled some drills in its annual war games as Typhoon Gaemi barrelled towards the island on Tuesday, expected to bring heavy rains and strong winds when it makes landfall.The Han Kuang exercises, which started Monday, are held every year across Taiwan to train its armed forces as China ramps up military pressure on the democratic island, which Beijing claims as part of its own territory.But as Gaemi -- currently categorised as a medium-strength typhoon -- edged closer to Taiwan Tuesday, the island's northeastern regions started seeing heavy rains, with the Central Weather Administration predicting landfall by late Wednesday.Defence ministry spokesman Sun Li Fang told reporters at an airbase in Hualien that the military will make "flexible adjustments based on the weather conditions in our exercise missions"."At present, the impact of the typhoon is more obvious in the eastern region and we will make some adjustments to some sea and air exercises due to the typhoon situation," he said on Tuesday.By nightfall, Gaemi packed sustained wind speeds of 155 kilometres (96 miles) per hour as it headed towards the island's northeastern coast, prompting several cities -- including Taipei -- to announce a typhoon holiday and cancelling schools for Wednesday."Tomorrow (Wednesday), please stay home," Taipei mayor Chiang Wan-an said on Facebook."Typhoon Gaemi, the first to make landfall this year, continues to intensify... please pay attention to your safety."Authorities said they were planning to evacuate more than 1,400 people from mountainous areas in the northeast by Tuesday evening, while Taiwanese airline EVA announced the cancellation of more than 20 departing flights from the international airport.Taiwan experiences frequent tropical storms from May to November, but experts say climate change has increased the intensity of tropical storms, leading to heavy rains, flash floods and strong gusts.-'Seek immediate shelter' -The war games this year were a departure from previous iterations, discarding exercises that were "more for demonstration purposes" and opting instead to more realistically simulate an attack from China, the defence ministry had said.The exercises will also work on decentralising the command structure, while conducting drills around key infrastructure points -- like Taiwan's sea ports, major bridges, and airports.President Lai Ching-te, dressed in military fatigues, observed earlier in the day as soldiers went through a simulated mass casualty rescue exercise at the Hualien airforce base."As guardians of democracy, your efforts are vital for national security & demonstrate our commitment to self-defense," he said on social media platform X.By afternoon, he arrived in New Taipei City at a port to oversee an elaborate simulation of various emergency situations as part of the annual civilian defence drills -- which run concurrently with Han Kuang.Lai watched a scenario whereby Chinese missiles had hit the port and its surroundings -- according to an announcer narrating over loudspeaker -- which prompted workers to evacuate civilians.In Taipei, air raid sirens blared and staff at a train station ushered passengers out, while some people sheltered in a parking lot.Taipei residents also received an automated text message that said: "(Air Defense Drill) Incoming missile/rocket threat. Seek immediate shelter."Lai, who is a staunch defender of Taiwan's democracy, is regarded as a "dangerous separatist" by China.Three days after he was sworn into office in May, China launched war games simulating an encirclement of the island as "punishment" for his inauguration speech, which Beijing said was a "confession of Taiwan independence".China has said it would never renounce the use of force to bring Taiwan under its control, and maintains a near-daily military presence around the island by sending in warplanes, navy vessels and drones.
