Moderna sues Pfizer over patents behind COVID-19 vaccine-By TOM MURPHYtoday

COVID-19 vaccine maker Moderna is suing Pfizer and the German drugmaker BioNTech, accusing its main competitors of copying Moderna’s technology in order to make their own vaccine.Moderna said Friday that Pfizer and BioNTech’s vaccine Comirnaty infringes on patents Moderna filed several years ago protecting the technology behind its preventive shot, Spikevax. The company filed patent infringement lawsuits in both U.S. federal court and a German court.A Pfizer spokeswoman declined to comment, saying the company had not been served with a copy of the litigation.Moderna and Pfizer’s two-shot vaccines both use mRNA technology to help patients fight the coronavirus.The mRNA vaccines work by injecting a genetic code for the spike protein that coats the surface of the coronavirus. That code, the mRNA, is encased in a little ball of fat, and instructs the body’s cells to make some harmless spike copies that train the immune system to recognize the real virus.Moderna CEO Stephane Bancel said in a prepared statement that the vaccine developer pioneered that technology and invested billions of dollars in creating it.The company said it believes its rivals’ vaccine infringes on patents Moderna filed between 2010 and 2016.

Covid vaccination linked to new and recurrent cancer – the jabs cause severe damage to the immune system-Monday, August 22, 2022 by: Ethan Huff    

(Natural News) People who got “vaccinated” for the Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) while in remission for cancer are finding that their cancer has returned.Bonnie Eisenberg, a 73-year-old who has been eight years in remission for breast cancer, is one such person who thought she was done with her disease in 2014. Up until the time she got jabbed, Eisenberg’s cancer appeared to be gone – but no longer.Her tumor markers have increased, including levels of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), which is common to cancers of not only the breast but also the colon, rectum, prostate, ovary, lung, thyroid, and liver.Every month since 2014, Eisenberg has dutifully taken a monthly CEA test along with others to monitor her cancer status. Before she got injected, her test results were always in the normal range during this time, ranging anywhere from 0 to 4.0 ng/mL.Not long after she got “fully vaccinated” to “protect” against the Fauci Flu, Eisenberg’s levels shot up to 3.7 ng/mL, which is still technically in a “normal” range. Then, they shot up even more to 5.2 ng/mL. (Related: Covid jabs are also linked to baldness.)-Even though 5.2 ng/mL is outside the normal range, Eisenberg and her doctor dismissed the results, a decision that Eisenberg now regrets.“Maybe I should have been a little more on the doctor,” she is quoted as saying. “Since I was so good, we weren’t really that concerned about it.”Is it worth getting cancer to potentially avoid a few covid sniffles? Eisenberg had only received the two primary injections of covid up until this point, and would later receive a “booster” despite suffering adverse reactions to the first ones.This decision pushed Eisenberg over the edge, resulting in a CEA test result of 17.6 ng/mL.“When you’re getting a phone call that early in the morning, something’s wrong,” Eisenberg recalls about hearing the bad news. “He says to me: ‘Bonnie, we have to scan you.’ What’s the matter? [I asked]. My mark was up to 17.6 [ng/mL] – I was in trouble.”Eisenberg was immediately sent in for a CAT scan along with an MRI and PET scans. One of the PET scans revealed that her previously dormant breast cancer had “metastasized,” meaning it spread outside the breast to other tissues in her body.“When he hit me with this, even now … it’s just a very hard thing to accept,” Eisenberg says. “It’s just something that should have never taken place.”“[The cancer] went to all my bones … it didn’t go to any of my body organs, but it was over every bone you could think of. On the PET scan I lit up like a Christmas tree.”Fearing that she could die from the consequences of this – a metastasizing breast cancer is automatically considered to be stage 4 – Eisenberg has committed to never get vaccinated again. It could already be too late, though.The drug that Eisenberg takes as part of her targeted therapy costs roughly $14,000 per month, though she only pays a small copayment for it. She also has to receive a monthly injection of denosumab, which costs another $3,000 per shot, to prevent bone fractures, though this is also covered by her insurance.Since restarting these treatments, Eisenberg’s tumor count dropped to 4.7 ng/mL at the start of this year, and continued to drop even further to less than 1 ng/mL in June.“I have to be on [medication] for the rest of my life,” she laments. “I can’t stop it … he [the doctor] can lower the milligrams and stuff like that … but you always have to be watched. What I have is not going away.”

Tiny mineral particles are better vehicles for promising gene therapy-July 1, 2020 By Chris Barncard

University of Wisconsin–Madison researchers have developed a safer and more efficient way to deliver a promising new method for treating cancer and liver disorders and for vaccination — including a COVID-19 vaccine from Moderna Therapeutics that has advanced to clinical trials with humans.The technology relies on inserting into cells pieces of carefully designed messenger RNA (mRNA), a strip of genetic material that human cells typically transcribe from a person’s DNA in order to make useful proteins and go about their business. Problems delivering mRNA safely and intact without running afoul of the immune system have held back mRNA-based therapy, but UW–Madison researchers are making tiny balls of minerals that appear to do the trick in mice.“These microparticles have pores on their surface that are on the nanometer scale that allow them to pick up and carry molecules like proteins or messenger RNA,” says William Murphy, a UW–Madison professor of biomedical engineering and orthopedics. “They mimic something commonly seen in archaeology, when we find intact protein or DNA on a bone sample or an eggshell from thousands of years ago. The mineral components helped to stabilize those molecules for all that time.”Photo: Bill Murphy seated in a lab-William Murphy-Murphy and UW–Madison collaborators used the mineral-coated microparticles (MCMs) — which are 5 to 10 micrometers in diameter, about the size of a human cell — in a series of experiments to deliver mRNA to cells surrounding wounds in diabetic mice. Wounds healed faster in MCM-treated mice, and cells in related experiments showed much more efficient pickup of the mRNA molecules than other delivery methods.The researchers described their findings today in the journal Science Advances.In a healthy cell, DNA is transcribed into mRNA, and mRNA serves as the instructions the cell’s machinery uses to make proteins. A strip of mRNA created in a lab can be substituted into the process to tell a cell to make something new. If that something is a certain kind of antigen, a molecule that alerts the immune system to the presence of a potentially harmful virus, the mRNA has done the job of a vaccine.The UW–Madison researchers coded mRNA with instructions directing cell ribosomes to pump out a growth factor, a protein that prompts healing processes that are otherwise slow to unfold or nonexistent in the diabetic mice (and many severely diabetic people).mRNA is short-lived in the body, though, so to deliver enough to cells typically means administering large and frequent doses in which the mRNA strands are carried by containers made of molecules called cationic polymers.“Oftentimes the cationic component is toxic. The more mRNA you deliver, the more therapeutic effect you get, but the more likely it is that you’re going to see toxic effect, too. So, it’s a trade-off,” Murphy says. What we found is when we deliver from the MCMs, we don’t see that toxicity. And because MCM delivery protects the mRNA from degrading, you can get more mRNA where you want it while mitigating the toxic effects.”The new study also paired mRNA with an immune-system-inhibiting protein, to make sure the target cells didn’t pick the mRNA out as a foreign object and destroy or eject it.Successful mRNA delivery usually keeps a cell working on new instructions for about 24 hours, and the molecules they produce disperse throughout the body. That’s enough for vaccines and the antigens they produce. To keep lengthy processes like growing replacement tissue to heal skin or organs, the proteins or growth factors produced by the cells need to hang around for much longer.“What we’ve seen with the MCMs is, once the cells take up the mRNA and start making protein, that protein will bind right back within the MCM particle,” Murphy says. “Then it gets released over the course of weeks. We’re basically taking something that would normally last maybe hours or even a day, and we’re making it last for a long time.”And because the MCMs are large enough that they don’t enter the bloodstream and float away, they stay right where they are needed to keep releasing helpful therapy. In the mice, that therapeutic activity kept going for more than 20 days.“They are made of minerals similar to tooth enamel and bone, but designed to be reabsorbed by the body when they’re not useful anymore,” says Murphy, whose work is supported by the Environmental Protection Agency, the National Institutes of Health and the National Science Foundation and a donation from UW–Madison alums Michael and Mary Sue Shannon.“We can control their lifespan by adjusting the way they’re made, so they dissolve harmlessly when we want.”The technology behind the microparticles was patented with the help of the Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation and is licensed to Dianomi Therapeutics, a company Murphy co-founded.The researchers are now working on growing bone and cartilage and repairing spinal cord injuries with mRNA delivered by MCMs.This research was supported by grants from the Environmental Protection Agency (S3.TAR grant 83573701), the National Institutes of Health (R01AR059916, R21EB019558, NIH 5 T32 GM008349) and the National Science Foundation (DMR 1105591, DGE-1256259).

EXCLUSIVE: Natural News releases post-vaccine clot ICP-MS elemental analysis results, comparing clots to human blood … findings reveal these clots are NOT “blood” clots-Wednesday, August 17, 2022 by: Mike Adams    

This article may contain statements that reflect the opinion of the author-(Natural News) We are now releasing ICP-MS lab test results that compare the elemental composition of human blood to the elemental composition of a clot sample taken from the body of a person who received a covid vaccination and then subsequently died. This clot was provided by embalmer Richard Hirschman, and these clots are being widely reported in the bodies of people who have “died suddenly” in the weeks or months after receiving one or more covid vaccinations.According to rigorous analysis based on excess death data — summarized nicely by Steve Kirsh at Substack — there are currently around 10,000 people dying each day from covid vaccines. Anywhere from 5 to 12 million fatalities have likely occurred worldwide so far, and with these self-assembling clots continuing to gain size and mass inside the bodies of those who have received the mRNA experimental medicine injections, it is certain that many people who have not yet died from the vaccines will experience death in the coming months and years.Kirsch has roughly estimated that 1 person is currently dead for every 1,000 doses of covid vaccines that are administered. This number will almost certainly increase with time, as the clots that are causing so much death appear to be continuing to “grow” (self-assemble) inside the blood vessels and arteries of vaccine victims. Thus, the final toll of covid vaccines will only be experienced over a period of several years and could be orders of magnitude higher, potentially 1 in 100 or even 1 in 10, although we will have to watch excess deaths carefully over the next several years to know where this post-vaccine death phenomenon levels out.-Brighteon.TV-So far, over 12 billion covid vaccine doses have been administered worldwide. Over 600 million doses have been administered in the United States, and Kirsch estimates that 600,000 Americans have likely already been killed by covid vaccines in the USA alone. (That’s about 12 times higher than the total casualties of US soldiers in the Vietnam War, for comparison.)-Pursuing the mystery of the post-vaccine clots-Dr. Jane Ruby has been one of the researchers at the forefront of attempting to determine the composition of these clots as well as their mechanism of action in causing fatalities in victims. Dr. Ruby connected us with Hirschman and helped arrange for the clot samples which we have tested via ICP-MS in our ISO-accredited, 17025 approved laboratory which specializes in food and water analysis.In full disclosure, our laboratory is accredited, audited, inspected and validated for ICP-MS testing in food and water samples, as well as other areas such as cannabinoid quantitation analysis in hemp extract samples. However, the accreditation scope of our lab does not specifically encompass human biological samples, as we do not offer such testing to the public. Nevertheless, we routinely test dog food and cat food samples which are, of course, composed of animal flesh and ground blood vessels, meat tissue, cartilage and other animal-derived biological structures, and we are using the exact same sample preparation, digestion, analysis and reporting methods for post-vaccine clot samples. We also routinely test beef, poultry, fish and other meat samples. Thus, we are highly confident in the accuracy of these results. Furthermore, we did not see any failures during the sample prep process. The entire clot was dissolved in nitric acid, meaning its elements went into solution and were able to be analyzed via ICP-MS.These ICP-MS tests were conducted on June 23 of this year. We have delayed public release of the results in order to allow time to share these numbers with colleagues and to invite feedback from others. These PDFs have also been shared privately with Dr. Jane Ruby and others. No one with expertise in this field has indicated any apparent problems or concerns about this analysis. If anything, the ICP-MS analysis is rather straightforward: Samples are “digested” into nitric acid, this acid is nebulized into a liquid stream which goes through a plasma torch, gets ionized and then directed through a quadrupole assembly that sorts the elements by their mass-to-charge ratios. Each individual element is scanned and counted on a PMT (Photo Multiplier Tube) which translates individual elements into electrical current that can be accurately counted. These results are mapped against external standards which are NIST traceable to provide very accurate calibration curves, which means the quantitation data are extremely reliable.We used 0.4528 grams of the clot as the sample mass in this case:For a primer on ICP-MS and why it is so accurate, see this NIH article.ICP-MS analysis results reveal that these clots are not made of blood – they are not “blood clots”Although we intend to conduct more tests on clots and blood samples, the data we see so far make it clear that these clots are not “blood clots.” They are not simply made of congealed blood.How do we know this? Because the elemental ratios and densities are vastly different. Consider the following comparison chart, based on our ICP-MS results (see full results below), and notice the stark differences between the elemental concentrations in blood vs. clot among nutritive “marker” elements such as iron and magnesium:Element-Blood Results-Clot Results-Mg (magnesium) 35 ppm-1.7 ppm-K (potassium)-1893 ppm-12.5 ppm-Fe (iron)-462 ppm-20.6 ppm-Zn (zinc)-7.9 ppm-2.4 ppm-Cl (chlorine) 930,000 ppm-290,000 ppm-P (phosphorous)-1130 ppm-4900 ppm-As you can see, the post-vaccine clot sample only contains 4.4% of the iron that would be seen in human blood. This alone is confirmation that this clots is not a “blood clot.” In addition, note the near-total lack of potassium (K) in the clot sample. The clot contains less than 0.6% of the potassium as human blood. It’s a similar story with magnesium, too.Several electrically conductive elements were higher in the clot-In addition to the nutritive elements shown above, we noticed a peculiar pattern among electrically conductive elements such as sodium (Na), aluminum (Al) and tin (Sn). For the following table, please note that the tin and sodium results come from a separate “semiquant” report which is less accurate than the “fullquant” analysis used for all the other elements shown here. In essence, the semiquant numbers are accurate in terms of relative concentrations from one sample to the next, but they are not compared to calibrated external samples, so the actual (absolute) concentration reported does not have the confidence interval of the fullquant results:Element Blood Results     Clot Results-Na (sodium) -1050 ppm*1500 ppm* Sn (tin)-163 ppb*-942 ppb*Al (aluminum)-1.3 ppm-1.6 ppm-* = SemiQuant results, not FullQuant-With sodium being nearly 50% higher in the clot, and tin showing an increase of 588%, we can only conclude that the self-assembling clot is, in effect, “harvesting” or concentrating certain elements from circulating blood as clot assembly is taking place. It is noteworthy that many of these elements are conductive. Aluminum, for example, is the most common alternative to copper for use in electrical wiring. Sodium is an alkali metal that is highly conductive, and tin is used as the primary component in solder alloys used to manufacture or repair circuit boards.You can see the numbers on elemental conductivity at this electrical conductivity reference table from Angstrom Sciences.One conclusion is inescapable: The clot is almost entirely lacking key marker elements that would be present in human blood (such as iron and potassium) yet shows significantly higher concentrations of elements that are used in electronics and circuitry.We invite the reader to draw your own conclusion of the explanation behind that, merely noting that the patents of Dr. Charles Lieber may be of special interest.This analysis, notably, does not answer any question of whether these clots are “alive” or dead (like hair and nails). My own professional opinion is that these clots are not living structures. They appear to be self-assembling dead biostructures, from what we can see so far. But that’s just an initial assessment and may change with additional observations or findings. Prions, for example, are self-assembling but non-living biostructures too. They are essentially mis-folded proteins that spread throughout the brain (or other regions), causing morphological alterations that nullify both the normal structure and function of neurological cells. Something does not have to be alive in order to be self-assembling. Even viruses, as described by traditional virology, are dead structures which are nevertheless self-assembling and can “grow” in size and mass in terms of their aggregate population.The following microscopy picture, taken at our lab at around 1500 x magnification, shows what appears to be a repeating structure on a wire-looking protrusion from one of these clots. In case you were wondering, is not a human hair. It is connected to the clot:For those not familiar with the units being reported here: ppb = parts per billion-ppm = parts per million-1,000 ppb = 1 ppm (because the metric system)-The units used by the instrument are mass over volume (m/v) and the “mass” is technically mass-to-charge ratio (m/z).Here’s a screen shot of a section from the PDF report of the ICP-MS results for live human blood:You can also download the full PDF document for the blood analysis here.And here’s the screen shot of the results from the clot analysis, showing ICP-MS analysis for the post-vaccine clot:Share these results and keep asking questions… more analysis yet to come-Feel free to share these results, incorporate them into your own videos or podcasts, and offer your own explanations for what might explain this apparent anomaly. Please give credit to NaturalNews.com as the source, as we conducted this exclusive analysis in order to help resolve the mystery of these clots that seem to be killing a large number of people.We welcome any feedback on these results, including corrections if any errors are found.We also encourage other labs to replicate these tests for yourself and publicly publish your findings as we have done here.More analysis results are coming shortly, including additional microscopy images.One year later: How the Biden admin, big tech, and Pfizer fooled Americans into taking “FDA approved” COVID vaccines that never actually existed-About the author: Mike Adams (aka the “Health Ranger“) is a best selling author (#1 best selling science book on Amazon.com called “Food Forensics“), an environmental scientist, a patent holder for a cesium radioactive isotope elimination invention, a multiple award winner for outstanding journalism, a science news publisher and influential commentator on topics ranging from science and medicine to culture and politics.

John Robson: Ontario’s New Health Care Plan Is Nothing but More of the Same-August 24, 2022

Commentary-It seems finally to have dawned on Ontario’s political leadership that our crumbling health care system is crumbling. Brilliant. You learned a simple word and after 40 years of denying waiting lists existed while promising to fix them and failing miserably, recognized an obvious situation. You must have an IQ of 16.Unfair, you say? They have a plan? Bosh. There’s just five pious wishes for desirable outcomes like “providing the right care in the right place” and “reducing surgical waitlists” followed by arm-waving gooblahoy.Essentially the “plan” is to have socialism work this time. And the herd of independent minds is stampeding that way, again. For instance CTV’s “’I thought I might die at home’: Canada’s health-care system is crumbling, experts say” is one of six million hits I got by Googling “Canada health care crumbling.” And these experts must be very smart to diagnose acute crumbolism when the only symptom is a woman in excruciating pain being told her provincial virtual health line had a 9-hour wait to speak to a nurse, she called 911 and no ambulance came, and the ER wait was projected at 16 hours if she dragged herself there.She resorted to prayer. And while she’s in Nova Scotia, prayer might be Ontarians’ best plan too because their Premier Doug Ford is currently out east to confer with Nova Scotia’s premier about how to fix health care. How would he know? Why isn’t Ford in Europe talking to people whose systems offer more mundane options than a literal “Hail Mary”? Duh. Because those premiers will then gather with two others to decide, again, that if only Ottawa gave them more cash from its magic money tree they could watch the system crumble in peace.The National Post ran a substantive piece that avoided the “crumbling” cliché. Alas it was marred by the presence of Michael Rachlis, one of the endlessly cited “experts who say” (a typical deep Radio Moscow-like thought: “Jeffrey Simpson’s somewhat pathetic column on user fees on Wednesday … is more than mischievous as he regurgitates others’ arguments for user fees.”). And by the headline “‘The lifeboat is full’: Canada’s health-care system is failing. There is no easy solution.”Of course there is. Quite a few, in fact, because every OECD country except the United States has a universal system better than ours. Just ask how they do it in Australia, France, Sweden, or Switzerland; move that way and we’d get better care and pay less.I don’t want anyone going “But Canadian health care is free.” It consumes over 40 percent of program spending in nearly every province and territory and costs Canadians around $5,000 per capita. It varies by income, but the Fraser Institute estimates that a middle-class family of four pays about $15,000 a year. Which is a pretty good bargain unless you actually need treatment and aren’t well-connected. Then it stinks.The CBC weighed in with a meme even more obnoxious than “experts say,” namely “Advocates, critics warn Ontario’s planned changes to long-term care are a violation of patient rights.” (Oddly, advocates and critics who get calls from mainstream journalists, like experts, hold views typical of mainstream journalists. Hence the CBC’s “Changes won’t solve core problem, critics say” verdict on Ford’s lack of plan.) But in this particular case they almost have a point, because the plan to force people into “Long-Term Care” homes they didn’t choose is ghastly.Just “temporarily,” of course. A word here meaning “only until you die and stop costing us money. P.S. Euthanasia is one service we do provide and promptly.” But the B.C. Court of Appeal just ruled that being Canadian you don’t have any “patient rights.” Except the glorious charter equality right patiently to suffer and die on a waiting list even when you could afford treatment from someone willing to help you, along with all the other schlubs who lack the wealth to go abroad or the “pull” to jump the queue. And the herd of independent minds was in favour of that ruling. Boo Cambie Clinic. Boo private care. Boo United States.So what is to be done? Nothing, of course. Ontario Health Minister Sylvia Jones claimed “all options are on the table” then had to run it back as experts and advocates swooped. But in fairness, it never occurred to her that the cool kids would think she meant we might, say, adopt private for-profit hospitals like that MAGA hotbed Sweden. Heck no. She meant all options to keep doing what we already are but this time magically it works. Thus her dreaded private care option was “Ontario is investing more to increase surgeries in paediatric hospitals and existing private clinics covered by OHIP.” Existing clinics. Covered by OHIP. Same old same old.Views expressed in this article are the opinions of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.

The mass culling of the HUMAN HERD is now under way… here’s exactly how it’s being accomplished to achieve mass extermination-Monday, August 22, 2022 by: Mike Adams-This article may contain statements that reflect the opinion of the author

(Natural News) Globalists see humanity as cattle (or sheeple) to be exploited for as long as needed, then culled like cattle herds when they are no longer useful. As globalist advisor Yuval Harari is now saying (paraphrased), the age of humans is coming to an end on planet Earth, and globalists have activated a multi-faceted plan to “cleanse” the planet of all human beings.If someone were to have some sick, twisted desire to kill off a herd of cattle, they could simply shut off the water and the food. Death would come in a matter of days or weeks at most. The same is happening right now to humans.The water supply is being cut off via geoengineering, causing global droughts and widespread crop failures. Entire cities like Los Angeles and Los Vegas are being threatened with a terminated water supply in the years ahead.The food supply is being decimated by cutting off fertilizer supplies and causing diesel fuel prices to go sky high while also attacking the supply chain that supplies agricultural equipment partsThe result? Both the water supplies and food supplies are being cut off. The human herd is being culled in some of the same ways a herd of cattle might be eliminated.Vaccines are designed to kill the gullible billions, and starvation will get the restVaccines represent another kill vector for global depopulation. Because vaccines are voluntary, they are intended to easily kill off the gullible masses who are so ill-informed that they actually believe Big Government and Big Pharma wants to save their lives. In reality, of course, the vaccines are biological weapons designed for infertility and depopulation. A huge percentage — we don’t yet know the final number — of those who have already taken the vaccines will die from self-assembling clots that we now know contain high concentrations of conductive elements such as Aluminum, Tin and Sodium.Those who resist the vaccines are harder to kill because they don’t line up and beg for death injections like the vaccine zealots do. Globalists intend to starve them to death with global food scarcity.Right now, we already know there isn’t enough food in the pipeline to feed the world throughout 2023. It simply isn’t getting planted and harvested in sufficient quantities to feed 8 billion people.Continued government attacks on the food supply — such as The Netherlands ordering ranchers to cull their herds — are designed to worsen food scarcity and accelerate mass starvation.Relatively few people are getting prepared with backup food supplies. When the shelves are empty, they will panic.Store plug: The Health Ranger Store will be releasing a few thousand “Ranger Buckets” during our Labor Day event starting Sep. 1. These are certified organic, laboratory-tested food supplies, containing NO MSG, no soy, no textured vegetable protein, no yeast extract, no refined carbohydrates or sugars, no artificial colors, etc. You can enter your email to be alerted when these are back in stock at this Ranger Buckets product page. (Click on the “Notify Me About Restock” button near the very bottom of the page to be alerted via email when these are back in stock.)-Globalists know a massive civilian uprising is just months away-In today’s Situation Update podcast (below), I explain that the globalist vaccine depopulation scheme has failed to kill off billions of people in the short amount of time that was intended. With food scarcity, energy scarcity and water scarcity now reaching critical levels, mass uprisings are mere months away. Western Europe, in particular, is going to see civilian revolts this coming winter as millions find themselves freezing and starving.The globalists know that worldwide food scarcity is already baked in. They also know the mass uprisings will commence as starvation and scarcity worsen. Thus, there is a countdown timeline in play that cannot be rescheduled.As a result, they are in a huge hurry to kill off billions of human beings before the uprisings get out of hand and snowball beyond the ability of these governments to contain.This is the real purpose behind the recruiting and arming of 87,000 new IRS agents who are being told they will need to use “deadly force” against the American people. In France, the Ministry of the Interior is hiring thousands of “green police” who will join armed brigades to supposedly prosecute “environmental crimes.” Yet the real purpose of all these armed government agencies in the USA, France, UK, Germany, Canada, Australia, etc. is to carry out mass executions of civilians as the government’s war on humanity kicks into high gear.The purpose of having a rogue FBI, armed IRS agents (armed with a massive new cache of ammunition and firearms), armed ATF agents, etc., is to have a private army that answers to the executive branch of government and that doesn’t fall under the jurisdiction of the US military, which cannot legally wage war on US soil. Federal agencies, however, can and will wage war against the American people. They are already doing it, with ATF agents now going door to door, demanding civilians surrender gun parts they legally purchased, for example. It’s going to be up to state governors to defend their residents against these federal tyrants, and that will spark regional warfare with states literally going to war with rogue federal agencies run by the illegitimate fake “resident in chief” Joe Biden.-Democrats, media and government are preparing to call for mass executions of all Christians and conservatives-Even right now, democrats, government and the media are claiming that all conservatives are terrorists, implying they all deserve to be exterminated. As Everett Piper writes in the Washington Times:This past Tuesday, Democrat adviser Kurt Bardella called all Republicans a “domestic terrorist cell.” MSNBC’s Tiffany Cross agreed and said there should be no distinction between Republicans and “right-wing extremists.” At the same time, Peter Wehner, a contributing writer for The Atlantic, likened the Republican Party to a “dagger pointed at the throat of American democracy.” All this while the FBI Director Christopher Wray added that any American flying the Gadsden — “Don’t Tread On Me” — flag is suspect of violent extremism.Does it concern you that a group of Democrats holding power is now defining all Republicans as being “right-wing extremists” and a “threat to American democracy?”Democrats, government and the media are gearing up to try to morally justify their “purge” of all conservatives, Christians, gun owners, pro-lifers and Trump supporters.Remember, these Democrats are the same people who mutilate the genitalia of their own children in the name of transgenderism. If they will mutilate their children, what do you think they will do to their perceived political enemies? …Especially if they can convince themselves that their enemies represent a “threat to democracy.”To the skeptics who say ignorant things like, “The IRS is going to use those guns and ammo on the American people,” we ask: Who else would they be planning to use it on? Of course it’s intended to use on Americans! Anyone who hasn’t yet come to realize that simple fact is probably not going to survive the next year in America.Other vectors of depopulation being accelerated-If you’re wondering what can kill billions of people faster than mass starvation and crop failures, think grid down scenarios. Any western government can sabotage their own domestic power grid and blame the Russians for “cyber attacks.” When the power grid is down, the financial system grinds to a halt. Chaos ensues. Mass looting and violence in the streets. Cops bug out. Civilians who are left behind get murdered, robbed and raped. This will happen in nearly every blue city in America.Within just a few months of a grid down scenario, up to 90% of the population is dead from violence, starvation, exposure or disease. Understand that heating and air conditioning will not function. Municipal water systems won’t work, meaning there will be no tap water. Cell towers will not function. If you need to charge an electronic device, you’ll need solar panels and a solar generator. If you want to enjoy communications, you’ll need a satellite phone or satellite text messaging device (like the Bivy stick from our sponsor SAT123.com). If you want to eat, you’ll need stored food. If you don’t want to die from dehydration, you’ll need a water filter and a water source that you can safely and frequently access. You’ll also need lots of containers for storing and transporting water, because you’ll need far more water than you think. (Figure 10 gallons per person per day as an absolute minimum.)-Understand that the globalists have only just begun to deploy their weapons against humanity. There’s much more they can unleash as needed, and if they don’t get the kill rate they’re wanting, they will just crank up the chaos until a sufficient number of billions are dead.Humanity is being culled like cattle. Those who don’t see it will be among the first to be exterminated by it. But those who prepare have a realistic chance of making it through the genocide and participating in the rebuilding of human civilization on the other side.

Yahoo Finance-Monkeypox lacks same 'urgency' as COVID-19 for Moderna: CEO-Anjalee Khemlani·Senior Reporter-Wed, August 3, 2022 at 11:19 AM

Monkeypox doesn't carry the same urgency for Moderna (MRNA) as COVID, says CEO Stéphane Bancel.Though the company is working on a vaccine for the disease, it remains focused of the novel coronavirus, the flu, and ongoing expansion."We don't have the urgency we had when COVID happened, because as you know, there is already a vaccine on the market," Bancel said.Monkeypox has been endemic in Africa for five years, and already has a viable vaccine and treatment on the market. Denmark-based Bavarian Nordic, maker of JYNNEOS, is currently the only player on the market. But it has struggled to meet even the current demand over manufacturing woes — even as cases rise, though not nearly at the pace of COVID."This is not an airborne virus. I'm not aware of any scientists that believe it can get to a pandemic like COVID," Bancel said.On an earnings call Wednesday, the company noted that the monkeypox vaccine is still a pre-clinical pursuit as it weighs how mRNA can play a role immediately as well as in the long term.Discussions with the FDA are ongoing, and until there is a clear pathway to an approved product — and an identified need and demand for it — the company will not be moving from pre-clinical to clinical stage for the monkeypox candidate, the company said Wednesday.The company views investing more effort into monkeypox as premature, but it is closely tracking the rising cases, and says its platform is proven and ready to scale if need be.

Team startled by powerful head movements from deceased swine-Treating death? Scientists revive cells in dead pigs, raising hopes — and questions-Researchers say method might be used to aid organ transplantation and may open door to idea of death as treatable, though philosophical, ethical and biological concerns abound-By Daniel Lawler-4 August 2022, 12:00 am 0

PARIS, France (AFP) — Scientists announced Wednesday they had restored blood flow and cell function throughout the bodies of pigs that were dead for an hour, in a breakthrough experts say could mean we need to update the definition of death itself.The discovery raised hopes for a range of future medical uses in humans, the most immediate being that it could help organs last longer, potentially saving the lives of thousands of people worldwide in need of transplants.However it could also spur debate about the ethics of such procedures — particularly after some of the ostensibly dead pigs startled the scientists by making sudden head movements during the experiment.The US-based team from Yale University stunned the scientific community in 2019 by managing to restore cell function in the brains of pigs hours after they had been decapitated.For the latest research, published in the journal Nature, the team sought to expand this technique to the entire body.They induced a heart attack in the anaesthetised pigs, which stopped blood flowing through the bodies.This deprives the body’s cells of oxygen — and without oxygen, cells in mammals die.The pigs then sat dead for an hour.The scientists then pumped the bodies with a liquid containing the pigs’ own blood, as well as a synthetic form of haemoglobin — the protein that carries oxygen in red blood cells — and drugs that protect cells and prevent blood clots.Blood started circulating again and many cells began functioning including in vital organs such as the heart, liver and kidney, for the next six hours of the experiment.“These cells were functioning hours after they should not have been — what this tells us is that the demise of cells can be halted,” Nenad Sestan, the study’s senior author and a researcher at Yale University, told journalists.Co-lead author David Andrijevic, also from Yale, told AFP the team hopes the technique, called OrganEx, “can be used to salvage organs.”OrganEx could also make new forms of surgery possible as it creates “more medical wiggle room in cases with no circulation to fix things,” said Anders Sandberg of Oxford University’s Future of Humanity Institute.The technique could potentially also be used to resuscitate people. However this could increase the risk of bringing back patients to a point where they are unable to live without life support — trapped on what is called the “bridge to nowhere,” Brendan Parent, a bioethicist at the NYU Grossman School of Medicine, said in a linked comment in Nature.Could death be treatable? Sam Parnia of the NYU Grossman School of Medicine said it was “a truly remarkable and incredibly significant study”.It showed that death was not black and white but rather a “biological process that remains treatable and reversible for hours after it has occurred”, he said.Benjamin Curtis, a philosopher focused on ethics at the UK’s Nottingham Trent University, said the definition of death may need updating because it hinges on the concept of irreversibility.“This research shows that many processes that we thought were irreversible are not in fact irreversible, and so on the current medical definition of death a person may not be truly dead until hours after their bodily functions have stopped,” he told AFP.“Indeed, there may be bodies lying in morgues right now that haven’t yet ‘died’, if we take the current definition as valid.”During the experiment, pretty much all of the OrganEx pigs made powerful movements with their head and neck, said Stephen Latham, a Yale ethicist and study co-author.“It was quite startling for the people in the room,” he told journalists.He emphasized that while it was not known what caused the movement, at no point was any electrical activity recorded in the pigs’ brains, showing that they never regained consciousness after death.While there was a “little burst” on the EEG machine measuring brain activity at the time of the movement, Latham said that was probably caused by the shifting of the head affecting the recording.However Curtis said the movement was a “major concern” because recent neuroscience research has suggested that “conscious experience can continue even when electrical activity in the brain cannot be measured.”“So it is possible that this technique did in fact cause the subject pigs to suffer, and would cause human beings to suffer were it to be used on them,” he added, calling for more research.

The Canadian Press-Canada’s COVID-19 pandemic response compares well with other countries, study finds-June 27, 2022

MONTREAL — Canada handled the first two years of the COVID-19 pandemic and weathered the ensuing upheaval better than several other nations with comparable health-care and economic infrastructure, a new study suggests.The research, published in the Canadian Medical Association Journal on Monday, credits Canada's strong performance to restrictive and persistent public health measures as well as a successful vaccination campaign.A team of Ontario researchers analyzed data from February 2020 to February 2022 in the group of industrialized countries known as the G10, which actually has 11 members. They compared Canada, Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, Sweden, Switzerland, the United Kingdom and the United States — all countries with similar political, economic, and health-care systems.*"If you look at Canada compared to the G10, the differences are enormous," study co-author Dr. Fahad Razak said in a recent interview. "If you look at our vaccination rate, we had the highest in the entire G10." After Japan, Canada had the second lowest rate of people infected and the second lowest rate of people dying, he added. The study says Japan is considered an outlier within the G10, for reasons that aren't clear.The research suggests Canada’s cumulative per-capita rate of COVID-19 cases was 82,700 per million, while all other countries — with the exception of Japan — were above 100,000 per million.Canada’s rate of COVID-19-related deaths was 919 per million, once again second lowest behind Japan. All other countries were over 1,000 per million.Razak said at least 70,000 more Canadians would have died during the first two years of the pandemic if Canada had the same death rates as the United States, the country with the highest cumulative number of COVID-19-related deaths."That means most of us would probably personally know a grandparent, or a friend or family member ... who’s living today in Canada who would have died if we had the same trajectory as the United States," Razak said.He said Canada's comparatively positive outcomes came about despite gaining access to vaccination later than most countries, noting there were also other health-care system structural disadvantages to overcome across the country at the outset of the pandemic."Some hospitals were so overwhelmed that we had to ambulance or airlift patients to other hospitals," he said.But Canada, he said, differed from other developed countries when it opted to implement public health measures that were both strict and persistent. Though such measures drew vehement opposition in some circles, Razak said they helped mitigate the pandemic's overall impact."Compared to many other countries ... they would have periods with tight restrictions but quickly pull back," he said. "For Canada, it was really this high and persistent level almost entirely for the first two years."But Razak said the success of Canada's immunization drive emerged as the strongest takeaway from the research, praising officials for engaging with the population and ensuring vaccines were readily available across the country.More than 80 per cent of eligible Canadians have been fully vaccinated with two doses as of June. The percentage of the vaccinated populations in other G10 countries is between 64 and 77 per cent, according to the study."There was a magic in Canada around these vaccine roll-outs during dose one and dose two," Razak said."When we speak to our colleagues across the world, Canada was the envy of the world in terms of our population rallying around this. It is a lesson to the world, that very high engagement can occur with the right strategy."The study also showed the countries' response to the pandemic left an economic burden, with government debt rising for all countries and Canada registering one of the highest relative increases."We had these very significant economic impacts, we had very tight restrictions on our individual freedom which led to things like isolation ... but we also had really among the best results in terms of controlling the impact of the virus," Razak said."Was it worth it? That’s not a scientific question, that’s a values and morals and policies question."This report by The Canadian Press was first published June 27, 2022.

UN scolds France for Islamic headscarf ban-Committee says Paris guilty of human rights violation after woman refused entry to education course because of her traditional Islamic headgarb-By AFP-AUG 3,22-Today, 11:49 pm 0

GENEVA, Switzerland — France violated an international rights treaty when it banned a woman from wearing a headscarf while she studied at a school, a UN committee has ruled.The move broke the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, the UN Human Rights Committee said.Its decision follows a complaint filed in 2016 by a French national born in 1977, whose lawyer does not wish her name to be published.The woman was on a professional training course for adults in 2010, and had passed an interview and entrance test.But the headmaster of Langevin Wallon high school in the southeastern suburbs of Paris refused to let her enter because of a ban on wearing religious symbols in public educational establishments.The UN committee said “prohibiting her from participating in her education course while wearing a headscarf constitutes a restriction on her freedom of religion in violation of the treaty.”The committee’s decision was adopted in March but sent to the woman’s lawyer on Wednesday.“This is an important decision which shows that France has work to do in terms of human rights and in particular on the issue of respect for religious minorities, and more particularly the Muslim community,” her lawyer Sefen Guez Guez told AFP.

Netanyahu presents economic ’emergency plan’; Lapid slams him as ‘disconnected’ Opposition leader releases lengthy video vowing to tackle cost of living as political campaigns heat up; opponents say prices soared during his time in power-By TOI staff-4 August 2022, 1:46 am 0

Opposition leader Benjamin Netanyahu on Wednesday presented an “emergency plan” to address the rising cost of living in Israel as political campaigns heated up ahead of November’s elections.His political opponents slammed the proposals as “disconnected” and pointed out that living costs soared during Netanyahu’s long period as prime minister.In a 17-minute long video uploaded to his official social media accounts, Netanyahu presented his Likud party’s proposals for lowering prices in Israel.“Our country is going through a severe economic crisis. This doesn’t have to be the case. It is possible to get out of it,” Netanyahu said. “Only a stable government, only a stable national government, will lower prices.”“Everyone knows the world is undergoing an economic crisis, which was created by the pandemic and by the war in Ukraine. No one denies that, but a global economic crisis is not an excuse for idleness,” he said.He said that if elected he would immediately lower electricity, gas and water prices, as well as freeze the rates for municipal taxes, known in Israel as “arnona,” for a year. These steps would cause a domino effect of falling prices, he said.He also stressed the need to lower tariffs and income taxes in order to deal with rising food prices.For housing prices, a leading economic concern for Israelis, he proposed subsidizing building plots for young couples, incentivizing contractors to carry out construction products more quickly, and issuing government bonds linked to housing costs, which he said would decrease demand.He also vowed to provide free pre-school programs for children under the age of three.“That will lower expenses by tens of thousands of shekels for families with little children, will allow parents to work and will grow the economy,” Netanyahu said, adding that the process would need to be done gradually.He said the funds required to implement his plan would come from “huge tax surpluses,” which he said were expected to reach NIS 60 billion this year, and from making the state budget “more efficient.”Prime Minister Yair Lapid kicked off his Yesh Atid party’s election campaign on Wednesday, also promising to lower the cost of living in Israel and taking a dig at Netanyahu. During Netanyahu’s time as prime minister, the cost of living climbed, especially for housing.“We are leading the fight against a rise in the cost of living,” Lapid told a crowd of supporters at an event held in Tel Aviv.“For 15 years nobody did anything, they did not touch it,” he said, apparently referring to Netanyahu’s 12 consecutive years as prime minister before Naftali Bennett took power last year, plus Netanyahu’s three years as premier in the 1990s.“Suddenly Netanyahu learns how to fill up a car? He goes to a gas station, and even does it exactly when we have just brought gas prices down,” Lapid said. Gas prices dropped significantly on Sunday after steadily rising for months.Lapid’s Yesh Atid party said in a statement that Netanyahu was “continuing his disconnected fake news campaign to hide the fact that for 15 years he neglected” the economy.“The change government led by Lapid will continue to secure achievements in the struggle to lower the cost of living for Israeli citizens,” the statement said.The party also put out a video showing Netanyahu making economic promises in the past.The Blue and White and New Hope parties, which joined forces last month for the election, lashed Netanyahu for blocking the passage of a state budget in 2020, which allowed him to go to elections without having to hand Gantz the premiership as part of their coalition agreement. The government failed to pass a budget for over three years of political turmoil, with heavy ramifications for the economy, until Bennett’s coalition passed a new budget last year. Netanyahu’s critics said he was clinging to power in order to fight corruption charges against him.Blue and White and New Hope said in a Wednesday statement, “Someone who blocked the state budget out of personal and legal considerations, who put their own benefit ahead of the state and badly hurt Israel’s economy, is not worthy and cannot promote any solution for the economy.”“After elections, we will establish a broad and stable government that will get Israel out of this crisis, without him,” Blue and White said.

Security officials said to warn of Hezbollah escalation if no Lebanon gas deal-Military chief reportedly says if Israel is able to produce gas while Lebanon can’t, situation would become highly volatile; US envoy ‘optimistic’ that progress can be made-By TOI staff-AUG 3,22-Today, 11:49 pm 0

Briefing the security cabinet Wednesday, senior officials warned that if an agreement is not reached in the maritime border dispute with Lebanon, Israel may be dragged into a military conflict with Hezbollah, the Walla news site reported.Citing a source familiar with the matter, the report said top brass warned lawmakers that clashes with the Shiite terror group could last several days.Military officials who attended the meeting included Chief of Staff Aviv Kohavi, Military Intelligence Chief Aharon Haliva and Head of Intelligence Research Amit Saar, Walla reported. Other security officials in attendance included Mossad Director David Barnea, Shin Bet Director Ronen Bar and National Security Advisor Eyal Hulata.A key issue discussed during the meeting, according to Walla, was Hezbollah’s recent provocations against the Karish gas field, including sending several drones to the site that were downed by the Israel Defense Forces.Tensions surrounding the dispute have risen in recent weeks, after a gas production vessel arrived in Israel to launch extraction operations in the offshore field, drawing condemnation from Lebanon, which had laid claim to parts of it. Israel claims the field is part of its UN-recognized exclusive economic zone and has been seeking to develop Karish as it tries to position itself as a natural gas supplier to Europe.According to Walla, Kohavi warned the cabinet that for Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah, the issue is presenting a perceived victory to his followers. He said that if an agreement is not reached and Israel is able to produce gas while Lebanon can’t, the situation would become highly volatile.Nasrallah has recently escalated his rhetoric on the issue, warning in a televised speech last month that his group’s provocations were “only the beginning.”Nasrallah’s statements such as “We will reach Karish and everything beyond Karish and everything beyond that,” as well as “War is much more honorable than the situation Lebanon is heading to now — collapse and starvation,” have prompted Israel to ramp up defenses for the floating rig.Last week, Nasrallah warned that all Israeli land and sea “targets” are within the range of his terror group’s missiles.Israel, meanwhile, has passed a message via the US and France warning the terror group that any action taken against the offshore Karish gas field would provoke a strong IDF response.Ministers on Wednesday also received an update on US-led mediation efforts to resolve the maritime border dispute between the two countries.US Senior Advisor for Energy Security Amos Hochstein has been helping broker talks on the dispute — which centers on offshore areas claimed by both countries believed to hold natural gas — for more than a year.“I remain optimistic that we can make continuous progress as we have over the last several weeks and I look forward to coming back to the region and being able to make the final arrangements,” Hochstein said Monday.According to Hochstein, Lebanon had agreed to drop demands for control of part of the Karish field claimed by Israel, asking in exchange for full control of the Qana gas field that also straddles the countries’ offshore economic zones.Hochstein, who is expected to hold another round of talks between the negotiating teams in two weeks, has indicated his intention of resolving the issue and reaching an agreement by September. Israeli officials, however, have suggested that will not be possible.Israel is expected to begin effectively extracting gas from the Karish rig in September.

WASHINGTON (AP) — U.S. Senators delivered overwhelming bipartisan approval to NATO membership for Finland and Sweden Wednesday, calling expansion of the Western defensive bloc a “slam-dunk” for U.S. national security and a day of reckoning for Russian President Vladimir Putin over his invasion of Ukraine.Wednesday’s 95-1 vote — for the candidacy of two Western European nations that, until Russia’s war against Ukraine, had long avoided military alliances — took a crucial step toward expansion of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization and its 73-year-old pact of mutual defense among the United States and democratic allies in Europe.Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer invited ambassadors of the two nations to the chamber gallery to witness the vote.President Joe Biden, who has been the principal player rallying global economic and material support for Ukraine, has sought quick entry for the two previously non-militarily aligned northern European nations.Approval from all member nations — currently, 30 — is required. The candidacies of the two prosperous Northern European nations have won ratification from more than half of the NATO member nations in the roughly three months since the two applied. It’s a purposely rapid pace meant to send a message to Russia over its six-month-old war against Ukraine’s West-looking government.“It sends a warning shot to tyrants around the world who believe free democracies are just up for grabs,” Sen. Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn., said in the Senate debate ahead of the vote.“Russia’s unprovoked invasion has changed the way we think about world security,” she added.Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, who visited Kyiv earlier this year, urged unanimous approval. Speaking to the Senate, McConnell cited Finland’s and Sweden’s well-funded, modernizing militaries and their experience working with U.S. forces and weapons systems, calling it a “slam-dunk for national security” of the United States.“Their accession will make NATO stronger and America more secure. If any senator is looking for a defensible excuse to vote no, I wish them good luck,” McConnell said.Sen. Josh Hawley, a Missouri Republican who often aligns his positions with those of the most ardent supporters of former President Donald Trump, cast the only no vote. Hawley took the Senate floor to call European security alliances a distraction from what he called the United States’ chief rival — China, not Russia.“We can do more in Europe ... devote more resources, more firepower ... or do what we need to do to deter Asia and China. We cannot do both,” Hawley said, calling his a “classic nationalist approach” to foreign policy.Sen. Tom Cotton of Arkansas, like Hawley a potential 2024 presidential contender, rebutted his points without naming his potential Republican rival.That included arguing against Hawley’s contention a bigger NATO would mean more obligations for the U.S. military, the world’s largest. Cotton was one of many citing the two nations’ military strengths — including Finland’s experience securing its hundreds of miles of border with Russia and its well-trained ground forces, and Sweden’s well-equipped navy and air force.They’re “two of the strongest members of the alliance the minute they join,” Cotton said.U.S. State and Defense officials consider the two countries net “security providers,” strengthening NATO’s defense posture in the Baltics in particular. Finland is expected to exceed NATO’s 2% GDP defense spending target in 2022, and Sweden has committed to meet the 2% goal.That’s in contrast to many of NATO’s newcomers formerly from the orbit of the Soviet Union, many with smaller militaries and economies. North Macedonia, NATO’s most recent newcomer nation, brought an active military of just 8,000 personnel when it joined in 2020.Senators' votes approving NATO candidacies often are lopsided — the one for North Macedonia was 91-2. But Wednesday's approval from nearly all senators present carried added foreign policy weight in light of Russia's war.Schumer, D-N.Y., said he and McConnell had committed to the country’s leaders that the Senate would approve the ratification resolution “as fast as we could” to bolster the alliance “in light of recent Russian aggression.”Sweden and Finland applied in May, setting aside their longstanding stance of military nonalignment. It was a major shift of security arrangements for the two countries after neighboring Russia launched its war on Ukraine in late February. Biden encouraged their joining and welcomed the two countries’ government heads to the White House in May, standing side by side with them in a display of U.S. backing.The U.S. and its European allies have rallied with newfound partnership in the face of Putin's military invasion, as well as the Russian leader's sweeping statements this year condemning NATO, issuing veiled reminders of Russia's nuclear arsenal and asserting Russia's historical claims to territory of many of its neighbors.“Enlarging NATO is exactly the opposite of what Putin envisioned when he ordered his tanks to invade Ukraine,” Sen. Bob Menendez, a New Jersey Democrat and chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, said Wednesday, adding that the West could not allow Russia to “launch invasions of countries.”Wednesday's vote by Republicans and Democrats stood out for the normally slow-moving and divided chamber. Senators voted down a proposed amendment by Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., intended to ensure that NATO’s guarantee to defend its members does not replace a formal role for Congress in authorizing the use of military force. Paul, a longtime advocate of keeping the U.S. out of most military action abroad, voted “present" on the ratification of Sweden and Finland's membership bid.Senators approved another amendment from Sen. Dan Sullivan, R-Alaska, declaring that all NATO members should spend a minimum of 2% of their gross domestic product on defense and 20% of their defense budgets on major equipment, including research and development.Each member government in NATO must give its approval for any new member to join. The process ran into unexpected trouble when Turkey raised concerns over adding Sweden and Finland, accusing the two of being soft on banned Turkish Kurdish exile groups. Turkey’s objections still threaten the two countries’ membership.___

17 For in one hour so great riches is come to nought. And every shipmaster, and all the company in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar off,
19 And they cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and wailing, saying, Alas, alas that great city, wherein were made rich all that had ships in the sea by reason of her costliness! for in one hour is she made desolate.

EZEKIEL 7:19
19 They shall cast their silver in the streets, and their gold shall be removed:(CONFISCATED) their silver and their gold shall not be able to deliver them in the day of the wrath of the LORD: they shall not satisfy their souls, neither fill their bowels: because it is the stumblingblock of their iniquity.

After years of blooming trade, some see Israel-China relationship start to sour-Data presented at launch of Israel-China Policy Center shows bilateral economic activity has fallen since 2019, when Israel began scrutinizing deals with Beijing under US pressure-By Tal Schneider-AUG 3,22-Today, 10:06 pm 1

As US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi made her way to East Asia this week for a trip that could drastically change the US-China relationship, an event in Israel was taking place that carried the acknowledgment that Jerusalem’s own relationship with Beijing was already shifting.“The honeymoon in relations between Israel and China is over,” former general Assaf Orion said at the launch of the Israel-China Policy Center in Tel Aviv Monday. “A series of indicators show that we are in a new period in relations between the countries and ties are now more complex and freighted than before.”The new center will be run under the auspices of the Institute for National Security Studies, a Tel Aviv think tank with close ties to Israel’s military and government. Chinese Ambassador to Israel Cai Run attended the Monday opening, along with Intelligence Minister Elazar Stern and senior Israeli diplomats, as well as envoys from India, Vietnam and other countries.In January, Israel’s Foreign Ministry celebrated 30 years of diplomatic ties with China by touting the $18 billion trade relationship between the countries.According to Orion, though, both Chinese investments in Israel and Israeli exports to China peaked in 2018.Since then, both indices have been on the decline and in the last six years, the number of Israeli firms exporting to China has dropped by 15 percent to 480 companies.The timeline dovetails with mounting pressure on Israel, first from former US president Donald Trump’s administration and later from Joe Biden’s White House, to more closely monitor the trade relationship, especially regarding large potentially sensitive deals.In 2019, Israel’s security cabinet announced the formation of an advisory panel on foreign investments in the country, after dragging its feet on the issue for several years while trying to balance its ties with Washington and Beijing.Chinese workers attend the opening ceremony of the construction works for the new Tel Aviv Light Rail on February 19, 2017. (Flash90)-While the panel was too late to have any say on infrastructure projects already underway, such as the Tel Aviv Light Rail and work at Haifa’s port, it managed to stall other deals being worked on, and has helped cool down the trade relationship.At the event, Cai noted that the economic relationship remains strong, saying bilateral trade had shot up from $15 million in 1992 to $22.8 billion in 2021. (It was unclear why Israel’s figures were $4.8 billion lower).“China has become the largest trade partner in Asia and the second largest in the world,” the ambassador said. “Before the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic direct flights were open between Tel Aviv and five Chinese cities.”China remains Israel’s largest trading partner in Asia; Israel imports more from China than anywhere else and exports more to China than any other Asian country. From 2011 to 2021, the share of Israeli exports to Asia going to China rose from 25% to 42%.Israelis appear split down the middle regarding how they see China, which has been criticized for its stifling authoritarianism and alleged crimes against humanity against the Muslim Uyghur minority in the country’s west.According to the results of a Pew survey released in June, 48% hold favorable views of China, more than in any other Western country surveyed, while 46% were down on Beijing. Israelis showed the least concern globally about human rights issues in China or Beijing’s growing military might, though they were slightly more jittery about economic competition with China or Chinese meddling in domestic affairs.Orion, however, noted that in other years, favorable views of China had been even higher. In 2019, 66% held favorable opinions of China and only 25% were unfavorable, according to Pew.Orion led strategy in the Israel Defense Force General Staff’s Planning Directorate before leaving the military in 2015 after 32 years. Since then he has been working as a researcher at INSS, heading up its China program.The institute is seen as very close to the defense and foreign affairs branches of Israel’s government. Many of its researchers are former defense brass or senior diplomats and its position papers are regularly circulated among senior officials in the Defense Ministry, Foreign Ministry and National Security Council. The launch of the center was seen as reflective of the seriousness Israel is taking its China strategy as the relationship morphs.Despite Orion’s bleak forecast, Stern expressed hopes that the relationship would burgeon anew.“We hope Orion is wrong in his assessments of the downward trend,” the intelligence minister said. “Of course, Orion as a researcher cannot ignore data-based trends, so we look at it as a challenge, to change the situation and bring it back to where we were.”

37 But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,
39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
40 Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken,(IN WW3 JUDGEMENT) and the other left.41 Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken,(IN WW3 JUDGEMENT) and the other left.
42 Watch therefore:(FOR THE LAST DAYS SIGNS HAPPENING) for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.

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.

Pelosi meets Taiwan leaders, promises support as China readies military drills-House speaker departs for next leg of Asia trip after tense visit to Taipei, including talks with anti-Beijing dissidents, as Taiwanese president says country ‘will not back down’-By HUIZHONG WU-AUG 3,22-Today, 5:02 pm 5

TAIPEI, Taiwan (AP) — US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, meeting leaders in Taiwan despite warnings from China, said Wednesday that she and other members of Congress in a visiting delegation are showing they will not abandon their commitment to the self-governing island.“Today the world faces a choice between democracy and autocracy,” she said in a short speech during a meeting with Taiwanese President Tsai Ing-wen. “America’s determination to preserve democracy, here in Taiwan and around the world, remains ironclad.”China, which claims Taiwan as its territory and opposes any engagement by Taiwanese officials with foreign governments, announced multiple military exercises around the island, parts of which will enter Taiwanese waters, and issued a series of harsh statements after the delegation touched down Tuesday night in the Taiwanese capital, Taipei.Taiwan decried the planned actions.“Such an act equals to sealing off Taiwan by air and sea, such an act covers our country’s territory and territorial waters, and severely violates our country’s territorial sovereignty,” Capt. Jian-chang Yu said at a briefing by the National Defense Ministry.The Chinese military exercises, including live fire, are to start Thursday and be the largest aimed at Taiwan since 1995, when China fired missiles in a large-scale exercise to show its displeasure at a visit by then-Taiwanese president Lee Teng-hui to the US.China’s official Xinhua News Agency announced the military actions Tuesday night, along with a map outlining six different areas around Taiwan. Arthur Zhin-Sheng Wang, a defense studies expert at Taiwan’s Central Police University, said three of the areas infringe on Taiwanese waters, meaning they are within 12 nautical miles (22 kilometers) of shore.Using live fire in a country’s territorial airspace or waters is risky, said Wang, adding that “according to international rules of engagement, this can possibly be seen as an act of war.”Pelosi’s trip has heightened US-China tensions more than visits by other members of Congress because of her high-level position as leader of the House of Representatives. She is the first speaker of the House to visit Taiwan in 25 years, since Newt Gingrich in 1997.Taiwanese President Tsai responded Wednesday to Beijing’s military intimidation.“Facing deliberately heightened military threats, Taiwan will not back down,” Tsai said at her meeting with Pelosi. “We will firmly uphold our nation’s sovereignty and continue to hold the line of defense for democracy.”Tsai, thanking Pelosi for her decades of support for Taiwan, presented the speaker with a civilian honor, the Order of the Propitious Clouds.Pelosi’s delegation left Taiwan on Wednesday evening headed to South Korea, her next stop in an Asia tour. She will head to Japan after.Before leaving Taiwan, Pelosi also met with several dissidents who have previously been in the crosshairs of China’s wrath — including Tiananmen protest student leader Wu’er Kaixi.“We are in high agreement that Taiwan is in the frontline (of democracy),” Wu’er said.Both the United States and Taiwan governments need to… conduct more in defending human rights.”China’s response to the visit has been loud and varied.Shortly after Pelosi landed Tuesday night, China announced live-fire drills that reportedly started that night, as well as the four-day exercises starting Thursday.The People’s Liberation Army Air Force also flew a contingent of 21 war planes Tuesday night, including fighter jets, toward Taiwan. Chinese Vice Foreign Minister Xie Feng also summoned the US ambassador in Beijing, Nicholas Burns, to convey the country’s protests the same night.Chinese state broadcaster CCTV published images of PLA drills and video Wednesday, although it was unclear where they were being conducted.Pelosi addressed Beijing’s threats Wednesday morning, saying she hopes it’s clear that while China has prevented Taiwan from attending certain international meetings, “that they understand they will not stand in the way of people coming to Taiwan as a show of friendship and of support.”Pelosi noted that support for Taiwan is bipartisan in Congress and praised the island’s democracy. She stopped short of saying that the US would defend Taiwan militarily, emphasizing that Congress is “committed to the security of Taiwan, in order to have Taiwan be able to most effectively defend themselves.”Her focus has always been the same, she said, going back to her 1991 visit to Beijing’s Tiananmen Square, when she and other lawmakers unfurled a small banner supporting democracy two years after a bloody military crackdown on protesters at the square. That visit was also about human rights and what she called dangerous technology transfers to “rogue countries.”Pelosi, who led the trip with five other members of Congress, also met with representatives from Taiwan’s legislature.“Madam Speaker’s visit to Taiwan with the delegation, without fear, is the strongest defense of upholding human rights and consolidation of the values of democracy and freedom,” Tsai Chi-chang, vice president of Taiwan’s legislature, said in welcome.The administration of US President Joe Biden has sought to tone down the volume on the visit, insisting there’s no change in America’s longstanding “one-China policy,” which recognizes Beijing but allows informal relations and defense ties with Taipei.Pelosi said her delegation has “heft,” including Gregory Meeks, chair of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, and Raja Krishnamoorthi from the House Intelligence Committee.She also mentioned Rep. Suzan DelBene, whom Pelosi said was instrumental in the passage of a $280 billion bill aimed at boosting American manufacturing and research in semiconductor chips — an industry that Taiwan dominates and is vital for modern electronics.Reps. Andy Kim and Mark Takano are also in the delegation.AFP contributed to this report.

Israel said to issue more threats to Gaza via Egypt-Roads around Gaza to remain closed for 3rd day amid fears of Islamic Jihad attack-Military bolsters forces surrounding Strip, with terror group said determined to avenge arrest of its West Bank leader; Israel said refusing PIJ demands made via Egyptian mediator-By Emanuel Fabian-AUG 3,22-Today, 10:14 pm 2

Following a new assessment held by the Israel Defense Forces, road closures along the border with the Gaza Strip will remain in place on Thursday, for the third day in a row, local authorities said Wednesday night.The closures came amid fears of an imminent attack by the Palestinian Islamic Jihad terror group, after the IDF arrested its West Bank leader on Monday night.In a message to citizens, the Hof Ashkelon Regional Council said plans by Islamic Jihad to launch anti-tank guided missiles or commit a sniper attack on the border have so far been prevented “by virtue of keeping and complying with the instructions.”Earlier on Wednesday, the IDF said it had bolstered its Gaza Division with 100 reservist troops and three conscript companies to assist in keeping civilians out of restricted areas under imminent threat by Islamic Jihad.The IDF’s Southern Command and the air defense array were also on high alert for the possibility of rocket fire.Israel has reportedly warned terror groups based in the enclave that it would respond forcefully to any revenge attack following the recent arrest of Bassem Saadi, who leads Islamic Jihad in the West Bank.Prime Minister Yair Lapid convened the high-level security cabinet on Wednesday to discuss the tensions and receive an update on Israel’s current assessments and actions it had been taking to defend against the imminent threat of a potential Islamic Jihad attack on the border.Tensions around the Strip spiked following the arrest of Saadi in Jenin on Monday night. Saadi was taken in by forces in Jenin along with his son-in-law and aide, Ashraf al-Jada, and another member of the terror group was killed in a gun battle with troops.In response to Saadi’s arrest, the Gaza-based terror group announced in a statement that it was declaring a state of “alertness” and raising its fighters’ “readiness.”The IDF later leaked images to reporters seeming to show Saadi in good condition, with the aim of calming tensions.The Palestinian Al-Quds newspaper, citing an unnamed Palestinian source, said Wednesday that Egyptian efforts to de-escalate the tensions between Israel and Islamic Jihad were still ongoing, but Israel had so far denied the terror group’s requests.The paper said Islamic Jihad demanded that the family of Saadi be allowed to visit him to check on his condition. Additionally, Islamic Jihad demanded Israel end military operations in the West Bank, specifically in the Jenin area where Saadi was detained, Al-Quds said.Lastly, the terror group was asking for the release of Khalil Awawda, a Palestinian detainee currently on hunger strike, the report said.The source told the paper that Israel was denying the requests, particularly regarding its operations in the West Bank.The report added that the source indicated Islamic Jihad seemed interested in de-escalating but had emphasized “its right to respond to the crimes of the occupation,” including the arrest of Saadi.Channel 12 news said Israel had passed more threatening messages to Islamic Jihad, via Egyptian mediators, that it would begin ramping up actions against Gaza if the terror group would not back down from its plans to avenge the arrest of its West Bank leader.The network said Israel may issue economic sanctions on the Strip, which could include closing off Gaza’s fishing zone.Early Tuesday morning, the IDF said it had ordered the closure of several main highways, train lines and lookout points along the Gaza border, following an uptick in activity by fighters tied to Islamic Jihad that posed an imminent and “a direct threat of a possible attack on Israeli civilians.”Most towns along the border have alternative routes to exit, apart from Kerem Shalom and Kibbutz Nahal Oz which were entirely blockaded. Some people, due to emergencies, have been allowed in and out by the army at specific time intervals.Due to the restrictions, Sapir College in Sderot was holding its classes online.The IDF also closed the Erez Crossing for pedestrians going in and out of Gaza. The border checkpoint is used by thousands of Palestinian workers every day.According to the Shin Bet, Saadi, 61, has been jailed and released by Israel seven times over the years.The Shin Bet said that in recent months, Saadi had “worked even harder to restore PIJ activities, and was behind the creation of a significant military force for the organization in [the northern West Bank] in general and in Jenin in particular.”“His presence was a significant factor in the radicalization of the organization’s operatives in the field,” the Shin Bet added.Jenin is widely seen as a hotbed of terror activity. Gunmen and other attackers behind several deadly terrorist attacks earlier this year came from the city and its refugee camp.

Iran, US, EU envoys heading to Vienna as nuclear talks expected to resume-Move aimed at ‘lifting cruel sanctions against our country,’ Tehran says; ‘Our expectations are in check,’ US envoy says; talks have been stalled for 5 months-By AFP-AUG 3,22-Today, 6:04 pm 0

Iran said Wednesday it was sending a delegation to Vienna to resume talks to revive the frayed 2015 agreement on its nuclear program that have been halted since March.“As part of the policy of lifting cruel sanctions against our country, Iran’s negotiating team led by Ali Bagheri, the Islamic Republic’s chief negotiator, will leave for Vienna in a few hours,” foreign ministry spokesman Nasser Kanani said in a statement.“Heading to Vienna to advance the negotiations,” Bagheri tweeted.“The Onus is on those who breached the deal and have failed to distance from ominous legacy. The US must seize the opportunity offered by the JCPOA partners’ generosity; ball is in their court to show maturity and act responsibly,” Bagheri wrote.The United States and the European Union’s Iran nuclear envoys soon followed suit, announcing they were traveling to Vienna for talks with Tehran’s delegation as they seek to salvage the agreement on its atomic ambitions.The US State Department’s point man on negotiations with Iran, Rob Malley, announced his trip to Austria on Twitter.“Our expectations are in check, but the United States welcomes EU efforts and is prepared for a good faith attempt to reach a deal,” Malley said.“It will shortly be clear if Iran is prepared for the same,” he added.EU nuclear coordinator Enrique Mora was also due in Vienna “to discuss (getting) JCPOA back to full implementation”, he tweeted, referring to the 2015 deal intended to prevent Tehran from developing a nuclear bomb.Iran said it was “optimistic” about the talks.Negotiations in Vienna began in April 2021 to restore the deal, but have stalled for the past five months amid differences between Tehran and Washington on several issues.The two sides have negotiated indirectly through the European Union coordinator in a bid to bring the US back into the deal and to lift sanctions on Iran, on the basis that Tehran would return to its nuclear commitments.Qatar hosted indirect talks at the end of June between the United States and Iran in a bid to get the Vienna process back on track, but those discussions broke up after two days without any breakthrough.Last week, the EU foreign policy chief and coordinator of the nuclear talks between Iran and world powers, Josep Borrell, submitted a new draft text and urged all sides to accept it or “risk a dangerous nuclear crisis.”Iran expressed “optimism” that the talks would resume after Borrell’s draft compromise was reviewed.“In this round of talks, which will take place as before with the coordination of the EU, discussions will be held regarding the ideas presented by the parties including those presented this week by Iran to the other party,” Kanani added.The statement added that Iran hoped “the opposing parties will resolve the situation by taking the necessary decisions and seriously focusing on resolving the remaining issues.”The Times of Israel staff contributed to this report.

Surveillance footage said to show Iranian agents scouting Israeli targets in Turkey-In video shared by Turkish media, suspected Iranian agents seen following and filming potential Israeli targets in airports, shopping centers and hotels across Istanbul-By TOI staff-aug 3,22-Today, 10:05 pm 0

Security footage released by Turkish media on Wednesday purported to show how alleged Iranian operatives scouted potential Israeli targets in Istanbul last month, as Iran attempted to carry out an attack against citizens of the Jewish state.The footage, reportedly obtained from security sources, showed several men trailing Israeli tourists and filming them. The suspects were captured by cameras following Israelis in airports, shopping centers and hotels.The footage was obtained after police scanned hundreds of hours of security footage from Istanbul, reports said.Turkish authorities identified several Iranian citizens who had recently entered the country, often with fake passports, and exhibited suspicious activity, like switching vehicles routinely.“We are talking about an event on a scale we had not seen before,” a Turkish source told Israel’s Channel 12 on Wednesday.On June 23, Turkish police arrested five Iranian nationals accused of plotting attacks against Israeli targets in Istanbul.The news of the bust came weeks after Israel ordered its citizens in Istanbul to leave immediately, warning of an imminent Iranian attack plot targeting Israelis in Turkey.Among those who were being targeted for kidnapping were a former Israeli diplomat and his wife, Hebrew media reported, citing Turkish outlets. The diplomat’s name was not published.A month later, local reports indicated that Turkey had foiled another Iranian attempt to target Israelis in Istanbul, saying three men were detained. They were caught on July 14 while carrying a rifle, two pistols, silencers and ammunition, reports said.The men reportedly tried to target Israeli tourists staying at a hotel near Istanbul’s Taksim Square, in exchange for $35,000.The next day, the Turkish Sabah daily newspaper published a video showing a man photographing areas inside the hotel.In this case, four cell members were arrested at the “last minute,” the report said. ????????????????????Iran paid $35,000 to agents tasked with killing Israelis in Istanbul / Video of the Iranian terrorists photographing the rooms of Israeli tourists. pic.twitter.com/PiP0cnWvZ8 — Terror Alarm (@terror_alarm) July 23, 2022-Iran and Israel have been engaged in a years-long shadow war, but tensions have ratcheted up in recent months following a string of high-profile mysterious deaths Tehran has blamed on Israel, airstrikes against Iran-linked targets in Syria, threatening rhetoric from Iranian leaders and Iran’s increasing violations of nuclear agreements.The Islamic Republic claimed Israel was responsible for the killing of Revolutionary Guards Colonel Hassan Sayyad Khodaei in his Tehran home on May 22. Khodaei’s assassination was the most high-profile killing inside Iran since the November 2020 killing of top nuclear scientist Mohsen Fakhrizadeh, also blamed on Israel.Iran’s foreign ministry spokesperson Saeed Khatibzadeh has said that Israeli claims that Tehran was targeting Israelis in Turkey are “baseless” and part of a “pre-designed scenario to destroy relations between the two Muslim countries.”Iran’s elite Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps, which also handles operations outside of the country, recently announced that it was replacing the head of its intelligence unit Hossein Taeb, who had held the position for over a decade.Taeb has been repeatedly named in Hebrew media reports as the man behind the planned attacks on Israelis in Turkey.

Poll: Over a quarter of Democrats feel Biden administration too supportive of Israel-Figure is at 9% among Republicans; meanwhile, 33% of Democrats support the pro-Palestinian BDS movement, compared to 9% of Republicans-By Ash Obel-aug 3,22-Today, 6:51 pm 0

New US polling has found over a quarter of Democrats feel the party’s policies are overly supportive of Israel.The University of Maryland Critical Issues Poll asked respondents a range of questions covering topics such as US policy on Israel and the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement.The poll found that 57 percent of respondents did not know the position of the US administration on Israel. Of those who did express an opinion, 26% of Democrats felt that government policy was more skewed towards Israel than their own views, only 3% felt the policy was overly favorable toward Palestinians, and 15% said policies matched their views.Meanwhile, 44% of Republicans felt the Biden administration leaned more toward Palestinians than their own views, while 9% felt it leaned more toward Israel.The poll also sought to gauge attitudes relating to the controversial BDS movement. Respondents were asked whether they had a view on BDS, and if so, what was it.Thirty-four percent of all respondents said they didn’t know what BDS was, while 18% said they were neither for nor against the movement. Of those with a clear opinion, 20% were supportive and 28% were opposed.Attitudes on BDS showed a clear partisan split, with 33% of Democrats supporting the movement, as opposed to just 9% of Republicans who support it. Republican opposition to BDS was at 50%, whereas Democrat opposition was at just 10%. Fifty-seven percent of Democrats either did not know what BDS was or had no stance, compared to 41% of Republicans.Given the rise of state anti-BDS laws around the US, respondents were asked whether they were supportive of such legislation.Pro-Israel demonstrators protest against Ben & Jerry’s over its boycott of the West Bank, and against antisemitism, in Manhattan, New York City, on August 12, 2021 (Luke Tress/Flash90)-A total of 62% were opposed to anti-BDS laws, with 38% in favor of the laws.Those who oppose the laws argue that imposing anti-BDS legislation is a violation of the free expression of political opinion. This argument is consistent with that of the Biden administration, which despite being “firmly” against the BDS movement maintains First Amendment rights on the issue.The poll was conducted via Nielsen Scarborough among a national poll of 2,208 respondents, with a margin of error of +/- 2.09%.

UN chief warns of 'nuclear annihilation' By Am?lie BOTTOLLIER-DEPOIS-United Nations, United States (AFP) Aug 1, 2022

Putin says 'no winners' in nuclear war-Moscow (AFP) Aug 1, 2022 - Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Monday that there could be "no winners" in a nuclear war and it should "never be unleashed."He made the statement as a review of the keystone nuclear treaty opened at the United Nations.In an address to the Tenth Nuclear Proliferation Treaty (NPT) Review Conference, Putin insisted that Russia remained faithful to the treaty's "letter and spirit.""There can be no winners in a nuclear war and it must never be unleashed," he said.Ties between Russia and the West have been unravelling since Putin sent troops to pro-Western Ukraine on February 24.On Monday, the United States, Britain and France rebuked Russia for "irresponsible and dangerous" talk about possibly deploying nuclear weapons.Since the start of Moscow's military intervention in Ukraine, Putin has made thinly veiled threats hinting at a willingness to deploy Russia's tactical nuclear weapons, which Russian military doctrine holds can be used to force an adversary to retreat.Russian state propaganda has also argued for using nuclear weapons in the conflict.In May, Russian editor and Nobel Peace Prize laureate Dmitry Muratov warned that the Kremlin's "propaganda warriors" were striving to make nuclear weapons use more palatable to the Russian public.UN head Antonio Guterres warned Monday that a misunderstanding could spark nuclear destruction as the United States, Britain and France urged Russia to stop "its dangerous nuclear rhetoric and behaviour."At the opening of a key nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) conference in New York, Guterres warned that the world faced "a nuclear danger not seen since the height of the Cold War."Citing Russia's war with Ukraine and tensions on the Korean peninsula and in the Middle East, Guterres said he feared that crises "with nuclear undertones" could escalate."Today, humanity is just one misunderstanding, one miscalculation away from nuclear annihilation," Guterres told the tenth review conference of the NPT, an international treaty that came into force in 1970 to prevent the spread of nuclear weapons."We have been extraordinarily lucky so far. But luck is not a strategy. Nor is it a shield from geopolitical tensions boiling over into nuclear conflict," he added, calling on nations to "put humanity on a new path towards a world free of nuclear weapons."The meeting, held at the UN's headquarters in New York, has been postponed several times since 2020 due to the Covid-19 pandemic. It will run until August 26.Guterres said the conference was "a chance to strengthen" the treaty and "make it fit for the worrying world around us."Eliminating nuclear weapons is the only guarantee they will never be used," the secretary-general implored, adding that he would visit Hiroshima for the anniversary of the August 6, 1945 atomic bombing of the Japanese city by the United States."Almost 13,000 nuclear weapons are now being held in arsenals around the world. All this at a time when the risks of proliferation are growing and guardrails to prevent escalation are weakening," Guterres added.In January, the five permanent members of the UN Security Council -- the United States, China, Russia, Britain and France -- had pledged to prevent the further dissemination of nuclear weapons.On Monday, America, Britain and France reaffirmed their commitment in a joint statement, saying a "nuclear war cannot be won and must never be fought."- 'No winners' -The three also took aim at Russia, which announced it had placed its nuclear forces on alert shortly after its invasion of Ukraine on February 24, urging Moscow to respect its international commitments under the NPT."Following Russia's unprovoked and unlawful war of aggression against Ukraine, we call on Russia to cease its irresponsible and dangerous nuclear rhetoric and behaviour," they said.President Vladimir Putin insisted that Russia remained faithful to the treaty's "letter and spirit" and that there could be "no winners" in a nuclear war, according to the Kremlin.While many speeches focused on Russia, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken also denounced North Korea, which "continues to expand its unlawful nuclear program" and Iran, which "remains on a path of nuclear escalation.""And so we come together at a critical moment," he said.Earlier, in a statement, US President Joe Biden called on Russia and China to enter nuclear arms control talks.The US leader reiterated that his administration is ready to "expeditiously negotiate" a replacement to New START, the treaty capping intercontinental nuclear forces in the United States and Russia, which is set to expire in 2026.The NPT, which the 191 signatories review every five years, aims to prevent the spread of nuclear weapons, promote complete disarmament and promote cooperation in the peaceful use of nuclear energy.At the last review conference in 2015, the parties were unable to reach agreement on substantive issues."Since then, the division within the international community has become only greater," lamented Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida."A path to a world without nuclear weapons has become even harder.

US to send $550 million of new weapons to Ukraine; German MLRS MARS II arrive-by AFP Staff Writers-Washington (AFP) Aug 1, 2022

The United States announced Monday a new tranche of weapons for Ukraine's forces fighting Russia, including ammunition for increasingly important rocket launchers and artillery guns.The new $550 million package will "include more ammunition for the high mobility advanced rocket systems otherwise known as HIMARS, as well as ammunition" for artillery, National Security Council spokesman John Kirby told reporters.The assistance includes 75,000 rounds of 155 mm artillery ammunition, a statement from the Pentagon said."To meet its evolving battlefield requirements, the United States will continue to work with its allies and partners to provide Ukraine with key capabilities," the statement said.This brings the total of military assistance committed to Ukraine since President Joe Biden took office to more than $8.8 billion, according to the Pentagon.Previous weapons assistance from Washington to Kyiv has included counter-artillery radars, Javelin anti-tank missiles, Soviet-made helicopters, shells and light armored vehicles.Kirby also hailed the first shipment of Ukrainian grain that left from the port of Odessa on Monday.It was the first since the war began, part of a landmark deal brokered by the United Nations and Turkey to lift Moscow's naval blockade in the Black Sea."We obviously welcome this important step and we hope to see more ships depart in the coming days to travel onward to world markets with agricultural products such as grain, wheat, sunflower oil and corn," Kirby told reporters.The five-month halt of deliveries from war-torn Ukraine -- one of the world's biggest grain exporters -- has contributed to soaring food prices, hitting the world's poorest nations especially hard.Russian troops invaded Ukraine on February 24 and the war has left thousands dead, forced millions to flee their homes and raised fears of a nuclear disaster.Ukraine says receives more Western rocket systems-Kyiv, Ukraine (AFP) Aug 1, 2022 - Ukraine said Monday it had received more precision rocket systems from the United States and Germany, adding to a growing arsenal of Western long-range artillery Kyiv says is changing dynamics on the battlefield.Defence Minister Oleksiy Reznikov tweeted that four more HIMARS rocket launchers from Washington and the first in a batch of German MARS-II systems had arrived in Ukraine.He thanked his German counterpart Christine Lambrecht, saying "our artillerymen salute our German partners!"In response to Washington's latest deliveries, Reznikov wrote that he was "grateful" to President Joe Biden and his US counterpart Lloyd Austin for "strengthening" the Ukrainian army."We have proven to be smart operators of this weapon. The sound of the #HIMARS volley has become a top hit of this summer at the front lines!" Reznikov wrote.The German-provided MLRS MARS II is the third variety of sophisticated rocket-launcher system -- after HIMARS and MLRS M270 -- to be given to Ukraine to help it battle Russia's invasion.So far the United States has agreed to send some 20 HIMARS systems to Ukraine under a major programme to equip Kyiv's forces.Reznikov last month asked Washington to send more of the systems, saying Kyiv's forces had used them to destroy around 30 Russian command stations and ammunition depots.He said that at least 100 of these systems were needed for an effective counter-offensive against Moscow's troops.He also renewed a call for longer-range ammunition to cut off Russian units from their support.Washington has hailed as "excellent" the use of HIMARS by the Ukrainian army, highlighting their impact on the battlefield.But Biden's administration has so far refused to send longer-range ammunition, fearing that Ukraine would strike targets inside Russian territory and potentially expand the war into a direct clash with the West.

Taiwan defiant as China readies military drills over Pelosi visit-By Amber WANG-Taipei (AFP) Aug 3, 2022

Taipei (AFP) Aug 3, 2022 - Ever since Communist China and Taiwan broke away from each other at the end of the Chinese Civil War in 1949 the waterway separating them has been a tense geopolitical flashpoint.Just 130 kilometres (81 miles) wide at its narrowest point, the Taiwan Strait is a major international shipping channel and all that lies between now democratic, self-ruled Taiwan and its giant authoritarian neighbour.Beijing has responded furiously to this week's visit to Taiwan by US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, issuing increasingly bellicose threats and announcing a series of military drills in the waters surrounding the island.Historians pinpoint three previous moments when tensions within the Taiwan Strait boiled over into an acute crisis.- First Taiwan Strait Crisis -At the end of the Chinese Civil War, Mao Zedong's communist forces had successfully pushed out Chiang Kai-shek's Nationalists, who relocated to Taiwan.Two rivals stood on each side of the strait -- the People's Republic of China (PRC) on the mainland and the Republic of China (ROC) in Taiwan.The First Taiwan Strait Crisis broke out in August 1954 when the Nationalists placed thousands of troops on Taiwan-ruled Kinmen and Matsu, two small islands just a few miles from the mainland.Communist China responded with artillery bombardments of the islands and the successful capture of the Yijiangshan Islands, about 400 kilometres north of Taipei.The crisis was eventually defused but nearly brought China and the United States to the brink of direct conflict.- Second Taiwan Strait Crisis -Fighting broke out again in 1958 as Mao's forces conducted an intense bombardment of Kinmen and Matsu in a bid to once again dislodge Nationalist troops there.Concerned that the loss of those islands might lead to the collapse of the Nationalists and Beijing's eventual takeover of Taiwan, US President Dwight D Eisenhower ordered his military to escort and resupply their Taiwanese allies.At one point, the US even briefly considered deploying nuclear weapons against China.Unable to take the offshore islands or bombard the Nationalists into submission, Beijing announced a ceasefire.Mao's forces would still intermittently shell Kinmen up to 1979 but an otherwise tense stalemate set in.- Third Taiwan Strait Crisis -It would be another 37 years before the next crisis.In those intervening decades, both China and Taiwan changed considerably.Following the death of Mao, China remained Communist Party-controlled but began a period of reform and opening up to the world.Taiwan, meanwhile, began shaking off the authoritarian years of Chiang Kai-shek and evolving into a progressive democracy, with many embracing a distinctly Taiwanese -- and not Chinese -- identity.Tensions exploded again in 1995 when China began test-firing missiles in the waters around Taiwan to protest a visit by Taiwanese President Lee Teng-hui to his alma mater university in the United States.Beijing particularly loathed Lee because he favoured Taiwan declaring itself an independent state.Further missile tests were carried out a year later as Taiwan held its first direct presidential election.The display backfired.The US dispatched two aircraft carrier groups to push China into backing down and Lee won the election by a large margin.A year later, Newt Gingrich became the first US House Speaker to visit Taiwan, a precedent Pelosi is now following 25 years later.Taiwan struck a defiant tone Wednesday as it hosted US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, with a furious China gearing up for military exercises dangerously close to the island's shores in retaliation for the visit.Pelosi landed in Taiwan on Tuesday despite a series of increasingly stark threats from Beijing, which views the island as its territory and had said it would consider the visit a major provocation.China responded swiftly, warning the US ambassador in Beijing of "extremely serious consequences" and announcing military drills in seas around Taiwan -- some of the world's busiest waterways."Facing deliberately heightened military threats, Taiwan will not back down. We will... continue to hold the line of defence for democracy," Taiwanese President Tsai Ing-wen said at an event with Pelosi in Taipei.She also thanked Pelosi for "taking concrete actions to show your staunch support for Taiwan at this critical moment".China tries to keep Taiwan isolated on the world stage and opposes countries having official exchanges with Taipei.Pelosi, second in line to the presidency, is the highest-profile elected US official to visit Taiwan in 25 years."Today, our delegation... came to Taiwan to make unequivocally clear we will not abandon our commitment to Taiwan," she said at the event with Tsai.Earlier, Pelosi said her group had come "in friendship to Taiwan" and "in peace to the region".The administration of President Joe Biden said in the run-up to the visit that US policy towards Taiwan remained unchanged.This means support for its government while diplomatically recognising Beijing over Taipei, and opposing a formal independence declaration by Taiwan or a forceful takeover by China.While the White House is understood to be opposed to Pelosi's Taiwan stop, its National Security Council spokesman John Kirby said she was entitled to go where she pleased.- 'Extremely egregious' -After Pelosi touched down Tuesday night in a military aircraft following days of feverish speculation about her plans, the Chinese foreign ministry summoned US Ambassador Nicholas Burns.Her visit "is extremely egregious in nature and the consequences are extremely serious", Vice Foreign Minister Xie Feng told Burns, according to state news agency Xinhua."China will not sit idly by."The Chinese military said it was on "high alert" and would "launch a series of targeted military actions in response" to the visit.The drills will include "long-range live ammunition shooting" in the Taiwan Strait, which separates the island from mainland China and straddles vital shipping lanes.The zone of Chinese exercises will be within 20 kilometres (12 miles) of Taiwan's shoreline at some points, according to coordinates released by the Chinese military."Some of the areas of China's drills breach into... (Taiwan's) territorial waters," defence ministry spokesman Sun Li-fang said at a press conference Wednesday."This is an irrational move to challenge the international order."Taiwan's Mainland Affairs Council, which sets the government's China policies, accused Beijing of "vicious intimidation" that would "seriously impact the peace and prosperity of the entire East Asia".It added that democratic countries should "unite and take a solemn stand to punish and deter" Beijing.Japan, a key US ally in the region, said Wednesday it had expressed concern to China over the exercises, while South Korea called for dialogue to maintain regional peace and stability.Both countries are on Pelosi's Asia itinerary, following stops in Singapore, Malaysia and Taiwan.China on Wednesday announced curbs on the import of fruit and fish from Taiwan -- citing the detection of pesticide residue and the coronavirus. It also halted shipments of sand to the island.Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi vowed Thursday to punish those who offend Beijing."This is a complete farce. The United States is violating China's sovereignty under the guise of so-called 'democracy'... those who offend China will be punished," he said.- 'We shouldn't be too worried -Outside the Taiwanese parliament, 31-year-old computer programmer Frank Chen shrugged off the Chinese warnings against Pelosi's visit."I'm not too worried about China's intimidation," he told AFP."I think China will take more threatening actions and ban more Taiwanese products, but we shouldn't be too worried."There was a small group of pro-China demonstrators outside parliament as well."The United States uses Taiwan as a pawn in its confrontation with China, to try to drag China down so (it) can dominate the world," Lee Kai-dee, a 71-year-old retired researcher, told AFP."If the United States continues to act this way, Taiwan will end up like Ukraine."China has vowed to annex self-ruled, democratic Taiwan one day, by force if necessary.Russia's invasion of Ukraine in February heightened fears in Taiwan that China may similarly follow through on its threats to annex the island.

UN nuclear chief: Ukraine nuclear plant is `out of control' DITH M. LEDERER-Wed, August 3, 2022 at 2:21 AM

UNITED NATIONS (AP) — The U.N. nuclear chief warned that Europe’s largest nuclear power plant in Ukraine “is completely out of control” and issued an urgent plea to Russia and Ukraine to quickly allow experts to visit the sprawling complex to stabilize the situation and avoid a nuclear accident.Rafael Grossi, director general of the International Atomic Energy Agency, said in an interview Tuesday with The Associated Press that the situation is getting more perilous every day at the Zaporizhzhia plant in the southeastern city of Enerhodar, which Russian troops seized in early March, soon after their Feb. 24. invasion of Ukraine.“Every principle of nuclear safety has been violated” at the plant, he said. “What is at stake is extremely serious and extremely grave and dangerous.”Grossi cited many violations of the plant’s safety, adding that it is “in a place where active war is ongoing,” near Russian-controlled territory.The physical integrity of the plant hasn’t been respected, he said, citing shelling at the beginning of the war when it was taken over and continuing information from Ukraine and Russia accusing each other of attacks at Zaporizhzhia.There is “a paradoxical situation” in which the plant is controlled by Russia, but its Ukrainian staff continues to run its nuclear operations, leading to inevitable moments of friction and alleged violence, he said. While the IAEA has some contacts with staff, they are “faulty” and “patchy,” he said.Grossi said the supply chain of equipment and spare parts has been interrupted, “so we are not sure the plant is getting all it needs.” The IAEA also needs to perform very important inspections to ensure that nuclear material is being safeguarded, “and there is a lot of nuclear material there to be inspected,” he said.“When you put this together, you have a catalog of things that should never be happening in any nuclear facility,” Grossi said. “And this is why I have been insisting from day one that we have to be able to go there to perform this safety and security evaluation, to do the repairs and to assist as we already did in Chernobyl.”The Russian capture of Zaporizhzhia renewed fears that the largest of Ukraine’s 15 nuclear reactors could be damaged, setting off another emergency like the 1986 Chernobyl accident, the world’s worst nuclear disaster, which happened about 110 kilometers (65 miles) north of the capital Kyiv.Russian forces occupied the heavily contaminated site soon after the invasion but handed control back to the Ukrainians at the end of March. Grossi visited Chernobyl on April 27 and tweeted that the level of safety was “like a `red light’ blinking.” But he said Tuesday that the IAEA set up “an assistance mission” at Chernobyl at that time “that has been very, very successful so far.”The IAEA needs to go to Zaporizhzhia, as it did to Chernobyl, to ascertain the facts of what is actually happening there, to carry out repairs and inspections, and “to prevent a nuclear accident from happening,” Grossi said.The IAEA chief said he and his team need protection to get to the plant and the urgent cooperation of Russia and Ukraine.Each side wants this international mission to go from different sites, which is understandable in light of territorial integrity and political considerations, he said, but there’s something more urgent and that is getting the IAEA team to Zaporizhzhia.“The IAEA, by its presence, will be a deterrent to any act of violence against this nuclear power plant,” Grossi said. “So I’m pleading as an international civil servant, as the head of an international organization, I’m pleading to both sides to let this mission proceed.”Grossi was in New York to deliver a keynote speech at Monday’s opening of the long-delayed high-level meeting to review the landmark 50-year-old Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty aimed at preventing the spread of nuclear weapons and eventually achieving a nuclear-free world.In the interview, the IAEA chief also spoke about efforts to revive the 2015 nuclear deal between Iran and major powers that the Trump administration abandoned in 2018 and the Biden administration has been working to renew.Grossi said there is “an ongoing effort to try to go for yet another meeting or round to explore possibilities to come to an agreement.” He said he heard the meeting “could be soon.”U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken told the NPT review conference on Monday that Iran “has either been unwilling or unable” to accept a deal to return to the 2015 agreement aimed at reining in its nuclear program.Grossi said “there are important differences among the negotiating parties” and important verification issues related to past activities that Iran needs to address. “It’s not impossible, it’s complex,” he said.If the nuclear agreement, known as the JCPOA, is not extended, he said some IAEA inspections will continue. But the JCPOA provides for additional transparency and inspections “which I deem as extremely important, very necessary, because of the breadth and depth of the nuclear program in Iran,” he said.Grossi stressed that cooperating with the IAEA, answering its questions, allowing its inspectors to go wherever they need to be, is essential for Iran to build trust and confidence. “Promises and good words will not do,” he said.On another issue, Grossi said last September's deal in which the United States and Britain will provide Australia with nuclear reactors to power its submarines requires an agreement with the IAEA to ensure that the amount of nuclear material in the vessel when it leaves port is there when it returns.He said Australia hasn’t decided what type of vessel it will be getting, so while there have been preparatory talks, substantive talks can’t begin.Because it’s a military vessel, Grossi said, “there are lots of confidential and protection of information measures that need to be embedded into any such agreement, so it’s very complex technologically."

Israel said refusing Islamic Jihad demands made through Egyptian mediator-By Emanuel Fabian

The Palestinian Al-Quds newspaper, citing an unnamed Palestinian source, says Egyptian efforts to de-escalate the tensions between Israel and the Palestinian Islamic Jihad are still ongoing, but Israel has so far denied the terror group’s requests.The paper says Islamic Jihad has demanded that the family of Bassem Saadi, the terror group’s West Bank leader who was arrested on Monday, be allowed to visit him to check on his condition.Additionally, Islamic Jihad is demanding Israel end military operations in the West Bank, specifically in the Jenin area where Saadi was detained, Al-Quds says.Lastly, the terror group is asking for the release of Khalil Awawda, a Palestinian detainee currently on hunger strike, the report says.The source tells the paper that Israel is denying the requests, especially regarding its operations in the West Bank.The report adds that the source indicated Islamic Jihad seems interested in de-escalating but has emphasized “its right to respond to the crimes of the occupation,” including the arrest of Saadi.

Volcano near Iceland’s main airport erupts again-By AP

A volcano in southwest Iceland begins erupting, the country’s meteorological authorities say, just eight months after its last eruption officially ended.The Icelandic Meteorological Office urges people not to go near the Fagradalsfjall volcano, which is located some 32 kilometers (20 miles) southwest of the capital, Reykjavik.The eruption in an uninhabited valley is not far from Keflavik Airport, Iceland’s international air traffic hub. The airport remains open and no flights were disrupted.A live video feed from the site shows magma spewing from a narrow fissure about 100 to 200 meters (109 to 218 yards) long over a field of lava from last year’s eruption, the first on the Reykjanes Peninsula in almost 800 years.

UN says nearly 12 million facing acute hunger in Sudan-Wed, August 3, 2022 at 12:16 PM

CAIRO (AP) — The United Nations painted a grim picture for Sudan’s humanitarian situation, saying Wednesday that almost a quarter of the country’s population was inching toward starvation amid a dire shortage of funding.The U.N. Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs said that 11.7 million people were facing acute hunger between June and September, an increase by nearly 2 million, compared to the same period last year.The deepening food crisis in Sudan is caused mainly by the county’s fragile economy, prolonged dry spells, reduced areas cultivated and erratic rainfall, said the U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization.The dark assessment comes as the East African nation has plunged into turmoil since a military coup in October. It upended the country’s short-lived transition to democracy after nearly three decades of repression and international isolation under autocrat leader Omar al-Bashir. A popular uprising forced the military’s removal of al-Bashir and his Islamist-allied government in April 2019.The military’s takeover also derailed international-backed efforts to overhaul the battered economy and stalled billions in assistance from the West and global financial institutions.Most of those suffering from acute hunger are in the capital, Khartoum, the Darfur region and the provinces of Kassala and White Nile, which were the hardest hit by conflict and economic decline, OCHA said.It said around 4 million children under age 5 and pregnant and nursing women are estimated to be acutely malnourished and in need of humanitarian life-saving nutrition. The figure included 618,950 children under 5 with severe acute malnutrition, of whom around 93,000 suffer from medical complications and need specialized care.The World Food Program said it was forced to cut rations for refugees across Sudan because of severe funding shortfalls. Starting from July, more than 550,000 refugees would receive only half of a standard food basket, whether as in-kind food or cash-based transfers, the agency said.It warned that such cuts could exacerbate protection risks as refugees may resort to negative coping mechanisms, including school drop-out, child labor, early marriage and sexual and gender-based violence.The U.N. said its humanitarian response for Sudan in 2022 received $414.1 million, out of a total requirement of $1.94 billion.

The Hill-UN warns two largest US water reservoirs at ‘dangerously low levels’-Sharon Udasin-Wed, August 3, 2022 at 11:43 AM

The United Nations warned on Tuesday that the two biggest water reservoirs in the United States have dwindled to “dangerously low levels” due to the impacts of climate change.The situation has become so severe that these reservoirs, Lake Mead and Lake Powell, are on the verge of reaching “dead pool status” — the point at which water levels drop so low that downstream flow ceases, according to the U.N. Environment Program (UNEP).Without such flow, hydroelectric power stations would cease to operate, jeopardizing the electricity supply for millions in the region, a statement from the agency said.“The conditions in the American West, which we’re seeing around the Colorado River basin, have been so dry for more than 20 years that we’re no longer speaking of a drought,” said Lis Mullin Bernhardt, an ecosystems expert at UNEP.“We refer to it as ‘aridification’ — a new very dry normal,” Bernhardt added.The Colorado River system supplies water to more than 40 million people and irrigates about 5.7 million acres of agriculture. The system serves seven states — Colorado, New Mexico, Utah, Wyoming, Arizona, Nevada and California — as well as Mexico.Scientists have already estimated that Lake Mead and Lake Powell, which are fed by the river, will plunge to 25 percent of their capacity by the end of this year.Meanwhile, only about 10 percent of the Colorado River’s natural flow, which has been heavily diverted throughout history along its 1,400-mile course, now reaches Mexico.As the western water crisis continues to deepen, water cuts will be introduced throughout the region, but experts warn that these actions may not be enough, according to UNEP.“While regulating and managing water supply and demand are essential in both the short and long term, climate change is at the heart of this issue,” Maria Morgado, UNEP’s ecosystems officer in North America, said in a statement.“In the long term we need to address the root causes of climate change as well as water demands,” Morgado added.The combined impacts of climate change and overconsumption have exacerbated the crisis, as frequent droughts and temperature rises confront an expanding population, the UNEP statement said.While the situation may be dire in the American West, the agency stressed that what is happening in the region is indicative of a wider global trend.Across the world, hundreds of millions of people are impacted by climate change as drought and desertification become “the new normal,” according to UNEP.“We are talking about a 20-year period of drought-like conditions with an ever-increasing demand on water,” Bernhardt said. “These conditions are alarming, and particularly in the Lake Powell and Lake Mead region, it is the perfect storm.”

Associated Press-Wind-whipped fire leaves Northern California hamlet in ashes-HAVEN DALEY and CHRISTOPHER WEBER-Wed, August 3, 2022 at 12:05 AM

KLAMATH RIVER, Calif. (AP) — A week ago, the scenic Northern California hamlet of Klamath River was home to about 200 people and had a community center, post office and a corner grocery store. Now, after a wildfire raged through the forested region near the Oregon state line, four people are dead and the store is among the few buildings not reduced to ashes.At an evacuation center Wednesday, Bill Simms said that three of the four victims were his neighbors. Two were a married couple who lived up the road.“I don’t get emotional about stuff and material things,” Simms said. “But when you hear my next-door neighbors died ... that gets a little emotional.”The 65-year-old retiree bought his property six years ago as a second home with access to hunting and fishing. He said Klamath River is a place people are attracted to because they can have privacy and enjoy nature.He went back to check on his property Tuesday and found it was destroyed.“The house, the guest house and the RV were gone. It’s just wasteland, devastation,” Simms said. He found the body of one of his two cats, which he buried. The other cat is still missing. He was able to take his two dogs with him to the shelter.The McKinney Fire broke out Friday and was still out of control on Wednesday, despite progress by firefighters who took advantage of rain from thunderstorms and lower temperatures.But even the welcome precipitation brought problems. On Tuesday, heavy rain swelled rivers and creeks and a private contractor in a pickup truck who was aiding the firefighting effort was hurt when a bridge gave out and washed away the vehicle, said Courtney Kreider, a spokesperson with the Siskiyou County Sheriff's Office. The contractor was hospitalized with non-life-threatening injuries, she said.More than 100 buildings ranging from homes to sheds have burned. Identifying the four people who were killed could take several days, Kreider said.The fire has charred nearly 90 square miles (233 square kilometers) and is the largest in California so far this year. The cause is unknown.With the rain and cooler temperatures, the blaze grew very little and fire officials said crews used bulldozers to carve firebreaks along a ridge to protect homes and buildings in and around Yreka, which has about 7,800 residents and is the largest city in Siskiyou County.On Wednesday, evacuation orders for residents of Yreka and Hawkinsville were downgraded to warnings, allowing people to return home. But they were warned the fire remains a threat and were urged to be ready to flee again if necessary.Skies were mostly clear on Wednesday and temperatures were in the mid- to high 90s, baking an already parched landscape.California and much of the rest of the West is in drought and wildfire danger is high, with the historically worst of the fire season still to come. Fires are burning in Montana, Idaho and Nebraska and have destroyed homes and threaten communities.Scientists say climate change has made the West warmer and drier over the last three decades and will continue to make weather more extreme and wildfires more frequent and destructive. California has seen its largest, most destructive and deadliest wildfires in the last five years. In 2018, a massive blaze in the Sierra Nevada foothills destroyed much of the city of Paradise and killed 85 people, the most deaths from a U.S. wildfire in a century.When it began, the McKinney Fire burned just several hundred acres and firefighters thought they would quickly bring it under control. But thunderstorms came in with ferocious wind gusts that within hours had pushed it into an unstoppable conflagration.Roger Derry, 80, and his son, Rodger, were among the few families from Klamath River whose homes were spared by the inferno. The elder Derry, who has lived in the unincorporated town for more than four decades, said the fire was terrifying.“When that fire came over that ridgeline, it had 100-foot flames for about 5 miles and the wind was blowing. It was coming down like a solid blowtorch,” he said. “There was nothing to stop it.”Harlene Schwander, 82, lost the home she had just moved into a month ago to be closer to her son and daughter-in-law. Their home survived but her house was torched.Schwander, an artist, said she only managed to grab a few family photos and some jewelry before evacuating. Everything else — including her art collection, went up in flames.“I’m sad. Everybody says it was just stuff, but it was all I had," she said.In northwestern Montana, a fire that has destroyed at least four homes and forced the evacuation of about 150 residences west of Flathead Lake continued to be pushed north by winds on Wednesday, fire officials said.Crews had to be pulled off the lines on Wednesday afternoon due to increased fire activity, Sara Rouse, a public information officer, told NBC Montana.There were concerns the fire could reach Lake Mary Ronan by Wednesday evening, officials said.The fire, which started on July 29 in grass on the Flathead Indian Reservation, quickly moved into timber and had charred nearly 29 square miles (76 square km).The Moose Fire in Idaho has burned more than 85 square miles (220 square kilometers) in the Salmon-Challis National Forest while threatening homes, mining operations and fisheries near the town of Salmon. And a wildfire in northwestern Nebraska led to evacuations and destroyed or damaged several homes near the small city of Gering. The Carter Canyon Fire began Saturday as two separate fires that merged.___Weber reported from Los Angeles.

21  And Isaac intreated the LORD for his wife, because she was barren: and the LORD was intreated of him, and Rebekah his wife conceived.
22  And the children (2 NATIONS IN HER-ISRAEL-ARABS) struggled together within her; and she said, If it be so, why am I thus? And she went to enquire of the LORD.
23  And the LORD said unto her, Two nations are in thy womb, and two manner of people shall be separated from thy bowels;(ISRAEL AND THE ARABS) and the one people shall be stronger than the other people;(ISRAEL STRONGER THAN ARABS) and the elder shall serve the younger.(LITERALLY ISRAEL THE YOUNGER RULES (ISSAC)(JACOB-LATER NAME CHANGED TO ISRAEL) OVER THE OLDER ARABS (ISHMAEL)(ESAU)

ISAIAH 28:14-19 (THIS IS THE 7 YR TREATY COVENANT OF DANIEL 9:27)
14 Wherefore hear the word of the LORD, ye scornful men, that rule this people which is in Jerusalem.
15 Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves:
16 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste.17 Judgment also will I lay to the line, and righteousness to the plummet: and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding place.
18 And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it.
19 From the time that it goeth forth it shall take you: for morning by morning shall it pass over, by day and by night: and it shall be a vexation only to understand the report.

25 And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart, and by peace shall destroy many: he shall also stand up against the Prince of princes;(JESUS) but he shall be broken without hand.DANIEL 11:36-40
36 And the king shall do according to his will;(EU PRESIDENT) and he shall exalt himself, and magnify himself above every god, and shall speak marvellous things against the God of gods, and shall prosper till the indignation be accomplished: for that that is determined shall be done.
37 Neither shall he regard the God of his fathers,(THIS EU DICTATOR IS A EUROPEAN JEW) nor the desire of women, nor regard any god: for he shall magnify himself above all.
38 But in his estate shall he honour the God of forces:(HES A MILITARY GINIUS) and a god whom his fathers knew not shall he honour with gold, and silver, and with precious stones, and pleasant things.
39 Thus shall he do in the most strong holds (CONTROL HEZBOLLAH,AL-QUAIDA MURDERERS ETC) with a strange god, whom he shall acknowledge and increase with glory: and he shall cause them to rule over many,(HIS ARMY LEADERS) and shall divide the land for gain.
40 And at the time of the end shall the king of the south(EGYPT) push at him:(EU DICTATOR PROTECTING ISRAELS SECURITY) and the king of the north(RUSSIA) shall come against him like a whirlwind, with chariots, and with horsemen, and with many ships; and he shall enter into the countries, and shall overflow and pass over.

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