Kid Killers! by Tamar Yonah
http://www.israelnationalnews.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/3

How evil? How evil can a society be that uses its children as human shields? Where is the outcry of the oh-so-moral United Nations and Human Rights groups? Of course, our cries of justice fall on deaf ears, and I do not even waste the time writing to these Jew-Hating and G-d hating organizations. However, it is still good to combat pictures with pictures.I was watching Al-Jazeera this morning on the television and have to admit, that the photos of the dead bodies near the UN. school were quite ghastly. (No showing the actual video the IDF took of them shooting mortar shells from that building they had civilians in.) I noticed how they repeat showing the footage of their dead over and over again, to drill into viewer's minds how horrible Israel is.Well, I can't fight fire with fire, becasue Israel does not usually allow photos of people's dead bodies to be exposed on TV as the Arabs thrive on doing with their own. But I CAN show you some of the things that the world does NOT see, and that is how these Arab Muslims treat their own civilians; men, women and children.

People say they care so much about these poor Arab children who are just innocent pawns. We see these photos:But they don't show you THESE photos:The Muslims are not ashamed to publicize that they raise and use Children to fight for them.From a Yemen News website: Palestinian children fight alongside the adults in the resistance.And this news story: Palestinian children dream of martyrdom.Arab psychologist says more than half want to strap on bombs....more than half of Palestinian children aged 6-11 dream of becoming suicide bombers...Or this: 14-Year-old Palestinian Attacks Settlement Israelis decry cynical usage of naive children by terrorist groups.
...the Mufti of Jerusalem, the city's highest Muslim religious authority spoke of his admiration for child martyrs.There is no doubt that a child [martyr] suggests that the new generation will carry on the mission with determination, Sheik Ikrima Sabri told the Egyptian weekly, Al-Ahram Al-Arabi. The younger the martyr, the greater and the more I respect him, said the mufti. And from FOX news: A new textbook is teaching Palestinian kids to hate Israel and think of fighting Israelis as a holy Islamic duty...These Arabs teach their children to murder, and to desire death. Where are the human rights groups? HUMAN SHIELDS (above and below)
View how these monsters use their own children as human shields:View how they raise their children to become little infidel-hating monsters.Why don't the mainstream media news networks show these photos and videos over and over again? It's a great news story and can make a novice reporter a brand name. ...Or get him fired. ...Or get his head chopped off -- maybe even by a child!

9 And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth.
10 And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space.
12 And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast.
18 And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth.

Kissinger: Obama primed to create New World Order Policy guru says global upheaval presents great opportunity January 06, 2009 9:07 pm Eastern By Drew Zahn
2009 WorldNetDaily

Henry Kissinger

According to Henry Kissinger, the Nobel Peace Prize winner and former secretary of state under President Nixon, conflicts across the globe and an international respect for Barack Obama have created the perfect setting for establishment of a New World Order.Kissinger has long been an integral figure in U.S. foreign policy, holding positions in the Nixon, Ford and Reagan administrations. Author of over a dozen books on foreign policy, Kissinger was also named by President Bush as the chairman of the Sept. 11 investigatory commission. Kissinger made the remark in an interview with CNBC's Squawk on the Street hosts Mark Haines and Erin Burnett at the New York Stock Exchange, after Burnett asked him what international conflict would define the Obama administration's foreign policy. Read Hope of the Wicked, where author Ted Flynn reveals the greatest deception in modern history – corporations, foundations and governments converging to bring about a New World Order.The president-elect is coming into office at a moment when there is upheaval in many parts of the world simultaneously, Kissinger responded. You have India, Pakistan; you have the jihadist movement. So he can't really say there is one problem, that it's the most important one. But he can give new impetus to American foreign policy partly because the reception of him is so extraordinary around the world. His task will be to develop an overall strategy for America in this period when, really, a new world order can be created. It's a great opportunity, it isn't just a crisis.

Kissinger's comments are captured at roughly the 2:00 mark of the following video:

Editor's note: The video includes a balloon in the first several seconds promoting a MySpace page that includes profane language and music and is not endorsed in any way by WND. The phrase 'new world order' traces back at least as far as 1940, when author H.G. Wells used it as the title of a book about a socialist, unified, one-world government. The phrase has also been linked to American presidents, including Woodrow Wilson, whose work on establishing the League of Nations pioneered the concept of international government bodies, and to the first President Bush, who used the phrase in a 1989 speech. A new partnership of nations has begun, and we stand today at a unique and extraordinary moment, said Bush before a joint session of Congress. Out of these troubled times, our fifth objective – a new world order – can emerge: A new era … in which the nations of the world, east and west, north and south, can prosper and live in harmony.The phrase New World Order causes alarm for many Americans, particularly those concerned about an international governing body trumping U.S. sovereignty or those that interpret biblical prophecy to foretell the establishment of a one-world government as key to the rise of the Antichrist. Conspiracy theorists, too, have latched on to the phrase, concerned that powerful financial or government figures are secretly plotting to rule the world. Kissinger's ties to government and international powers – as well as his use of the phrase – have made him suspect in the eyes of many who are wary of what new world order might actually mean. There is a need for a new world order, Kissinger told PBS interviewer Charlie Rose last year, I think that at the end of this administration, with all its turmoil, and at the beginning of the next, we might actually witness the creation of a new order – because people looking in the abyss, even in the Islamic world, have to conclude that at some point, ordered expectations must return under a different system.As WND reported earlier, Kissinger was also part of last year's super-secret Bilderberg Group, an organization of powerful international elites, including government, business, academic and journalistic representatives, that has convened annually since 1954.

According to sources that have penetrated the high-security meetings in the past, the Bilderberg meetings emphasize a globalist agenda and promote the idea that the notion of national sovereignty is antiquated and regressive. CNBC's Haines concluded the Kissinger interview by asking, Are you confident about the people President-elect Obama has chosen to surround him? Kissinger replied, He has appointed an extraordinarily able group of people in both the international and financial fields.

FROM JEROME CORSI'S RED ALERT U.S. to break up by 2010? Nation predicted to collapse due to immigration, economic decline, moral ruin January 05, 2009 12:40 pm Eastern 2009 WorldNetDaily

Editor's Note: The following report is excerpted from Jerome Corsi's Red Alert, the premium online newsletter published by the current No. 1 best-selling author, WND staff writer and columnist. Subscriptions are $99 a year or $9.95 per month for credit card users. Annual subscribers will receive a free autographed copy of The Obama Nation, the blueprint for Obama's first term in office.A Russian professor and former KGB analyst, Igor Panarin, is still receiving international attention for his prediction made a decade ago that the United States will disintegrate by next year, Jerome Corsi's Red Alert reports. Panarin claims mass immigration, economic decline, moral degradation and an inevitable dollar collapse will trigger a U.S. civil war by fall, followed by a complete break-up by 2010. He believes the U.S. will split into five distinct regions:

The California Republic, including the West Coast states of California, Oregon and Washington, as well as Nevada, Idaho, Utah and Arizona, that Panarin predicts will be part of China or under Chinese influence; North Central America, including Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, North and South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri, Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan and Ohio, that Panarin predicts will be part of Canada or under Canadian influence; The Atlantic America, including Kentucky, Tennessee, New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, the District of Columbia, Virginia, West Virginia, North and South Carolina, and all of New England, that Panarin predicts may join the EU; The Texas Republic, including New Mexico, Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia and Florida, that Panarin predicts will be part of Mexico or under Mexican influence; The Offshore U.S., with Alaska going to Russia and Hawaii going to either Japan or China. While Panarin's theory is often dismissed as a version of anti-Americanism coming back into vogue in Russia, he gained widespread attention after he published an article in Izvestia, one of Russia's largest daily newspapers.

The Wall Street Journal Panarin's map, below, to illustrate the break up of the U.S. into five distinct divisions. Americans hope President-elect Barack Obama can work miracles, Panarin wrote, according to the Wall Street Journal. But when spring comes, it will be clear there are no miracles.Panarin's theory is interesting, but, as WND Editor Joseph Farah has pointed out, not inevitable, Corsi wrote. Still, the theory calls our attention once again to the growing influence of globalism in the United States where the interests of China, Canada, the EU, Mexico and others have increasingly exerted an economic influence upon our destiny.China continues to finance U.S. budget deficits, including the new one proposed by Obama as an economic rescue plan certain to cost nearly $1 trillion. The EU exerts a major influence on U.S. strategic thinking, and few Americans are aware that President Bush formed by executive order a Transatlantic Economic Council in April 2007, with a view to create a Transatlantic Union, perhaps as early as 2015. Now Red Alert's author, whose books The Obama Nation and Unfit for Command have topped the New York Times best-sellers list, claims Panarin's analysis serves to remind Americans not only that globalism is proceeding at an unprecedented rate but also that the U.S. is now increasingly vulnerable to it, especially given its weakened economy and declining dollar.

Red Alert's Jerome Corsi received his Ph.D. from Harvard University in political science in 1972. For nearly 25 years, beginning in 1981, he worked with banks throughout the U.S. and around the world to develop financial services marketing companies to assist banks in establishing broker/dealers and insurance subsidiaries to provide financial planning products and services to their retail customers. In this career, Corsi developed three different third-party financial services marketing firms that reached gross sales levels of $1 billion in annuities and equal volume in mutual funds. In 1999, he began developing Internet-based financial marketing firms, also adapted to work in conjunction with banks. In his 25-year financial services career, Corsi has been a noted financial services speaker and writer, publishing three books and numerous articles in professional financial services journals and magazines.

Snow, freezing rain blanket S. Ontario in first significant storm of 2009
Wed Jan 7, 7:31 AM By The Canadian Press

TORONTO - An overnight mix of snow and freezing rain has turned roads across southern and eastern Ontario into a slippery mess for commuters. Freezing rain warnings are in effect for the Niagara area to Hamilton while snowfall warnings cover eastern portions of the province. Provincial police say they have been dealing with numerous accidents because of slippery roads and most are single vehicle crashes. Pearson International Airport in Toronto reports a few dozen flight delays and cancellations, primarily due to weather problems in other cities. Thousands of students in southeastern Ontario are getting a day off because of cancelled school buses. School buses are parked in Hastings, Prince Edward, Lennox and Addington and Frontenac Counties, Northumberland County and in Niagara Region.

Europe copes with cold and snow By COLLEEN BARRY, Associated Press Writer JAN 7,09

MILAN, Italy – Subfreezing temperatures and exceptional snowfall caused travel woes around Europe on Wednesday, and in Rome's zoo it was so cold the chimpanzees got cookies for extra calories to keep them warm.Milan's Malpensa and Linate airports briefly closed, then struggled to overcome a morning of delays and cancellations when the facilities reopened in the early afternoon as the city, Italy's financial capital, dug out from a foot (30 centimeters) of snow. The airport authority said flight crews and other workers had been unable to reach the airports.Snow that blanketed much of northwestern Italy caused train delays of up to two hours as the Italian railway had to slow track speeds. Schools closed in many cities.A rare snowfall in France's normally sunny Cote d'Azur sent the national railway into crisis mode, halting trains in Provence as well as the Alps. Authorities stopped all buses in the port city of Marseille and closed surrounding highways, urging drivers to stay home. Several minor car accidents caused long traffic jams.The operator of France's electricity grid and a unit of Electricite de France SA, called on customers in southern and western France to limit power consumption during peak evening hours amid expected record demand.In Rome, keepers at the capital's zoo fed primates a special breakfast of warm barley porridge, croissants and cookies to make sure they had enough calories to keep up their body temperatures, the zoo said in a statement.

In Rome, zoo keepers fed primates a special breakfast of warm barley porridge, croissants and cookies to make sure they had enough calories to keep up their body temperatures, the zoo said.The chimpanzees and orangutans also have been treated to modern floorboard heating and raised beds of hay and wood chips to guarantee the perfect thermal insulation, the zoo said in a statement.Germany had its coldest night of the winter, with a temperature of minus minus 18 Fahrenheit (28 degrees Celsius) measured at one weather station in eastern Germany. In central Germany, frozen switches caused some train delays and cancellations.In the Netherlands, authorities at Rotterdam's port sent out an ice-breaking ship Wednesday morning to ensure passage for barges using a vital artery to ply the country's inland waterways. It was the first time since 1996 that the port has used an icebreaker.

But the freezing temperatures warmed the hearts of Dutch skaters, who stormed the frozen canals. Serious speedskaters were hoping the cold spell would continue long enough for the country to stage its 11 cities tour, a 125-mile (200 kilometer) race over frozen canals and rivers in the country's northern province of Friesland.The race was last run in early 1997 and has only been staged 15 times since the first official event in 1909.Despite the freeze, the group that organizes the race played down hopes of a 2009 race, saying in a statement on its Web site that two more weeks of severe, around-the-clock frost and 6 inches (15 centimeters) of ice were needed.
Sadly, so far it doesn't look like that is going to happen.AP correspondents Michel Allione in Marseille, France, Michael Corder in Amsterdam and Geir Moulson in Berlin contributed to this report.

Frigid temps loom for N'east, Midwest: forecasts By Haitham Haddadin Haitham Haddadin – Tue Jan 6, 1:46 pm ET

NEW YORK (Reuters) – The U.S. Northeast and Midwest can expect an extended winter chill, including bitter cold temperatures next week, that should boost demand for home heating fuels, forecasters and oil traders said on Tuesday.Forecasters said Northeastern states should brace for a major storm as early as Tuesday that would bring snow, freezing rain, sleet and below normal temperatures to major metropolitan areas.Hard on its heels would follow even colder temperatures as another cold front moves in Sunday in the Northeast as well as the Midwest, extending deep into next week, they said.This cold snap will bring some of the coldest temperatures of the winter to the Midwest and the Northeast, David Streit, senior meteorologist at MDA Federal Inc, told Reuters.It looks like Chicago will go below zero by next week, he added, referring to a Fehrenheit temperature reading for the Windy City equal to minus 18 Celsius. And then along the Northeast you will see a lot of those cities dropping into the teens.Energy analysts said the colder weather would likely boost demand for heating fuels in the Northeast, the world's biggest heating oil market, and the Midwest, where households prefer natural gas as a home heating fuel.With colder than normal temperatures expected to move into the eastern U.S. next week, heating oil is the strongest segment of the petroleum complex so far today, said Tim Evans, energy analyst with Citi Futures Perspective.He was referring to heating oil futures for February delivery on the New York Mercantile Exchange, which jumped more than 4.50 percent to $1.6688 per gallon on Tuesday.

MAJOR WINTER STORM

Private forecaster Accuweather.com said a major storm would hit Northeastern states Tuesday and Wednesday -- spawned by a fast-moving storm from the northern Plains and a powerful storm from the Deep South that will combine over the Northeast.By Wednesday, heavy icing is expected from Pennsylvania into southern New England, with up to a foot of snow possible across the higher terrain of interior New England, Accuweather said on its website. Ice will change to rain along the Interstate 95 corridor.Northeast temperatures, which averaged 4 to 8 degrees F (2-4 C) above normal during the past 24 hours, will be 1 to 4 degrees F below normal by Thursday and 4 to 8 degrees F (2-4 C) below normal Saturday, forecaster DTN Meteorlogix said.

DTN Meteorlogix's 6-to-10-day forecast called for near to below normal temperatures in the U.S. Northeast.MDA Federal's Streit said the storm system expected to hit the Mid-Atlantic and the Northeast in the next 48 hours did not appear to have a lot of snow for the major metropolitan areas, but will nonetheless prove to be messy and cold.It's a big storm ... It's mostly freezing rain and sleet. Temperatures will be running below normal, he said.But this storm system is not the one that's going to usher in the very cold weather. That will not arrive until the start of next week, added Streit, who is based in Rockville, Maryland.Around Sunday, temperatures will begin plummeting in the Northeast and mid-Atlantic by 10 degrees F, at least, he said.Temperatures will be well below normal then and it should continue through much of next week, the forecaster added.(Editing by Walter Bagley)

HOARDING OF GOLD AND SILVER

DOCTOR DOCTORIAN FROM ANGEL OF GOD
then the angel said, Financial crisis will come to Asia. I will shake the world.

JAMES 5:1-3
1 Go to now, ye rich men, weep and howl for your miseries that shall come upon you.
2 Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are motheaten.
3 Your gold and silver is cankered; and the rust of them shall be a witness against you, and shall eat your flesh as it were fire. Ye have heaped treasure together for the last days.

REVELATION 18:10,17,19
10 Standing afar off for the fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas that great city Babylon, that mighty city! for in one hour is thy judgment come.
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: 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.

REVELATION 13:16-18
16 And he(FALSE POPE) causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:(CHIP IMPLANT)
17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.(6-6-6) A NUMBER SYSTEM

Canada to see pretty terrible start to 09: panel Wed Jan 7, 11:34 AM

TORONTO (Reuters) - The Canadian economy is in for a rough ride through the first half of the year and will see little or no growth in 2009 as the recession takes hold, top economists from Canada's largest banks said on Wednesday.The economy will also continue to shed thousands of jobs and the unemployment rate will move higher as fallout from the global financial crisis takes its toll.The comments were made by a panel of leading domestic bank economists at a Economic Club of Canada event in Toronto early on Wednesday.The first half of 2009 looks pretty terrible for Canada, said Don Drummond, chief economist at Toronto-Dominion Bank.Drummond's comments came ahead of key data due on Friday that is expected to show the Canadian economy shed 22,000 in December. That would follow a loss of 70,600 jobs in November.The slowdown in the global economy which wreaked havoc on financial markets last year is expected to keep weighing on the domestic economy.Canada sends about 75 percent of its exports to the United States, leaving it extremely vulnerable to the growing economic crisis there.There's a lot of bad news to get through over the next six months, said Avery Shenfeld, senior economist at CIBC World Markets.Warren Jestin, Chief Economist at Bank of Nova Scotia, also said there will be fairly tough news as we go through the first half of this year.

The comments come less than a month after the Bank of Canada unexpectedly cut its key overnight rate by 75 basis points to a 50-year low of 1.50 percent and said for the first time that the economy was entering a recession.Craig Wright, chief economist at Royal Bank of Canada, said the Canadian economy will see no growth in 2009.Data released late in December showed the economy shrank in October, paving the way for a recession that has now been widely predicted by economist and government officials.(Reporting by Frank Pingue; editing by Rob Wilson)

Stock markets down sharply on dismal economic, corporate news
Wed Jan 7, 12:00 PM By Malcolm Morrison, The Canadian Press

TORONTO - The New Year's rally on the Toronto stock market has come to an abrupt halt after six strong sessions, with the main index falling more than 200 points on a litany of distressing economic and corporate news. New York indexes were also lower as a private sector employment report raised fears that Friday's non-farm jobs report for December will come in much worse than expected and chip maker Intel said fourth-quarter revenue missed expectations. Toronto's S&P/TSX composite index tumbled 261.84 points to 9,210.25 after gaining more than five per cent since the start of 2009 as investors snapped up beaten-down energy and base-metals stocks. New York's Dow Jones industrials declined 178.3 points to 8,836.8. All TSX sectors were lower Wednesday morning, led by declining energy and base metals stocks amid, predictions from some of Canada's top economists of more financial troubles for Canada in 2009 and a slow recovery. At a gathering of economic minds at the Economic Club of Canada in Toronto, they said the global economic meltdown will continue to affect the country for at least the first half of the year before it returns to growth, which will likely be lower than normal. The TSX Venture Exchange moved 23.11 points lower to 890 while the Canadian dollar shed 0.35 cent to 84.2 cents US. The ADP National Employment Report said private sector employment fell by 693,000 in December. Economists had been expecting a drop of about 490,000 jobs in the U.S. last month. The Nasdaq composite index lost 38.87 points to 1,613.51 after chip maker Intel said it expects fourth-quarter revenue to fall 23 per cent from the same period a year earlier. It said it is missing its previous outlook because of ongoing weak demand and inventory reductions by its PC maker customers. Intel shares fell 59 cents to US$14.78. The S&P 500 index gave back 19.8 points to 914.9.

Markets are grabbing on any data that they can get to and (while) the ADP report hasn't been an appropriate predictor of what the employment figures will be but they give you a sense of the direction, said Norman Raschkowan, chief investment officer at Mackenzie Financial Corp. Intel was obviously disappointing and of course the Fed's release yesterday of the minutes from their last meeting where they're talking about the recession being deeper and longer and then (Obama) talking about trillion-dollar deficits for a number of years going forward - people woke up this morning with all sorts of news reminding them we're not out of the woods yet.Another reminder of deteriorating employment levels came late Tuesday after aluminum producer Alcoa Inc. said it is reducing its global work force by about 13,500, or 13 per cent, by the end of the year and lowering total output by more than 18 per cent annually. Its shares tumbled 94 cents to US$11.18. The TSX energy sector is down 5.34per cent as crude prices retreated after running up about $10 a barrel over the last week, in large part because of the Israeli offensive in Gaza. The February crude contract on the New York Mercantile Exchange fell $3.73 to US$44.85 a barrel as demand concerns trumped concerns over the Mideast after a government report showed U.S. oil reserves were much bigger than expected last week. EnCana Corp. (TSX:ECA) declined $2.87 to $57.99 while Suncor Inc. (TSX:SU) eased $1.61 to $27.41.

Enterra Energy Trust (TSX:ENT.UN) says it may limit capital spending due to falling commodity prices. Its units were off eight cents to 80 cents as the company said it is looking for alternative investment opportunities besides a conventional drilling program. The financial sector stepped back 1.75 per cent as Royal Bank (TSX:RY) gave back 68 cents to $37.36 and Manulife Financial (TSX:MFC) dropped 81 cents to $23.30.
The base metals sector declined 7.5 per cent with Teck Cominco Ltd. (TSX:TCK.B) down 50 cents to $7.69 and Sherritt International (TSX:S) lost 31 cents to $4.15. The gold sector was down 4.15 per cent as the February bullion contract in New York fell $19.90 to US$846.10 an ounce. Goldcorp Inc. (TSX:G) faded $1.15 to $33.99. Consumer discretionary stocks were also in the red with shares in auto parts maker Magna International (TSX:MG.A) down $2.70 to $39.54. General Motors Corp. has cancelled plans to build the Pontiac G8 sport truck that was scheduled to go on sale this year. Pontiac spokesman Jim Hopson says the move is part of GM's ongoing review related to its long-term viability plan and that the sport truck didn't fit with the company's vision for Pontiac. GM shares added 17 cents at US$4.11. Major air carriers WestJet (TSX:WJA) and Air Canada (TSX:AC.A) had fewer empty seats in December despite economic hurdles and weather-related challenges. Calgary-based WestJet reported a load factor of 80.9 per cent for the month, up 1.6 percentage points from 79.3 in December 2007 as the airline increased capacity 10.6 per cent.

Air Canada reported a load factor of 81.7 per cent, up 2.9 percentage points from the same month a year earlier as it cut capacity 9.9 per cent, dropping system traffic by 6.6 per cent. WestJet shares climbed 27 cents to $13.01 while Air Canada dipped one cent to $1.85. Reitmans (Canada) Ltd. (TSX:RET.A) shares fell 28 cents to $10.42 after it said its same-store sales decreased by 5.4 per cent in December.
Sales for the year decreased slightly to $1.001 billion from $1.004 billion in 2007.
In Asian trading, Japan's Nikkei stock average rose 1.74 per cent, and Hong Kong's Hang Seng index fell 3.37 per cent. Britain's FTSE 100 fell 3.3 per cent, Germany's DAX index declined 1.9 per cent, and France's CAC-40 was off 1.85 per cent.

EU considers emergency measures as gas crisis intensifies
PHILIPPA RUNNER 06.01.2009 @ 17:40 CET

EUOBSERVER / BRUSSELS - Restarting old nuclear reactors, sharing gas stocks and calling an EU-Russia-Ukraine summit have emerged as potential EU reactions to the gas crisis, as severe supply cuts hit EU consumers and industry.Twelve thousand homes in Varna, Bulgaria were left without central heating as snow fell on Tuesday (6 January), with Bulgarian fertiliser producers Neochim and Agropolychim forced to halt production after Russian gas to the country stopped flowing through Ukraine in the small hours.Gas supplies to Greece, Austria, Romania, Slovenia, the Czech Republic and Slovakia fell by 70 percent to 100 percent, with Slovakia - which imports all of its gas from Russia - expected to declare a state of emergency at midnight.France, Germany, Italy, Poland and Hungary also suffered serious disruptions. Poland reduced gas deliveries to industrial plants and Germany's energy champion - E.ON Ruhrgas - warned the company's possibilities [of functioning normally] will reach their limits if the problem drags out.Ukraine-Russia negotiations on fixing 2009 gas prices and resuming normal supply are to restart in Moscow on Thursday. But Ukraine President Viktor Yushchenko warned the EU that things might get worse before they get better.The Russian side intends to either significantly reduce or stop altogether transits of Russian natural gas [to Europe], his office said in a statement on Tuesday afternoon.

The European Commission and the Czech EU presidency do not know how the situation will unfold, despite top-level telephone contact between the European Commission president, the Czech prime minister, the Bulgarian prime minister and Russian and Ukrainian leaders.Nobody knows exactly what is at stake or what the conflict is really about, a Czech diplomat told EUobserver. This reflects very badly on their [Russia and Ukraine] reputations.Czech Prime Minister Mirek Topolanek said he may call a snap EU-Russia-Ukraine summit as an extreme measure if the situation does not swiftly improve. Meanwhile, EU member state energy experts are to meet in a Gas Co-ordination Group in Brussels on Friday to discuss possible solidarity measures for the worst-hit EU states.There are reserves in different member states that could be used, there could be gas that could be transported, there could be a switch to different types of fuels, European Commission spokesman Ferran Tarradellas Espuny said.Bulgarian President Georgi Parvanov floated the idea of restarting one of two decommissioned reactors at the Kozloduy nuclear plant in line with Article 36 of the country's accession treaty on energy security.

Wider ripples

Lithuania is also eyeing the gas crunch with a view to prolonging the life of Reactor II at its Ignalina nuclear plant or speeding up a €1.5 billion EU grant to build energy bridges to Sweden and Poland.The Baltic states receive Russian gas via Belarus instead of Ukraine. But a similar dispute in 2007 saw disruptions to Russian gas transit via Belarus, with 70 percent of Lithuania's economy to run on Russian gas after Ignalina II shuts down in December. In the longer term, the Czech EU presidency plans to push for the installation of new counting stations on the Russia-Ukraine and Ukraine-EU borders to increase transparency on gas flows. The EU may also propose running Russia-Ukraine gas transit via a new consortium that includes EU oversight, or negotiating a legally-binding transit treaty with its neighbours.

Middle man

Russia-Ukraine transit is currently handled by the Swiss-registered firm RosUkrEnergo, which is reportedly co-owned by Russia's Gazprom and Ukraine oligarch Dmitry Firtash.The company buys gas from Gazprom and sells it to Ukraine's Naftogaz. But details of contracts and profits are secret, with some analysts suspecting the firm of being the main troublemaker in Russia-Ukraine energy relations.It has been alleged that the company doesn't do much for its healthy remuneration and has plenty of money to buy political influence, the European Council on Foreign Relations' Andrew Wilson told this website.

Russian gas supplies to EU dive overnight
PHILIPPA RUNNER 06.01.2009 @ 09:16 CET

Russian supplies of gas to the EU via Ukraine dived by 70 percent overnight from Monday (5 January) to Tuesday Ukraine says, with Bulgarian consumers told to turn off gas stoves after an emergency government meeting.Gazprom has begun pumping gas to the EU via Ukraine at just 92 million cubic metres a day compared to 270 million cubic metres the day before, Ukraine state gas firm Naftogaz said. We do not understand how we will deliver gas to Europe, Naftogaz spokesman Valentin Zemlyansky told newswires. This means that in a few hours, problems with supplies to Europe will begin.Russian gas stopped flowing to Bulgaria, Greece, Macedonia and Turkey at around 3:30 am Sofia time on Tuesday, with the Bulgarian government holding an emergency meeting at 7:00 am and urging people to switch to alternative heating sources.Bulgaria - where temperatures stood at minus seven degrees Celsius on Tuesday and are forecast to hit minus 15 this week - relies on Russia for almost all its gas, while running coal and nuclear power plants as well.We are in a crisis situation, Bulgaria's economy ministry said in a statement.The sudden supply drop marks a sharp escalation in the 2009 gas crisis, putting it on an equal footing with the 2006 gas crunch when Russian levels also dived by 200 million cubic metres overnight.Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin had on Monday instructed Gazprom to cut Ukraine's EU-bound gas by a smaller amount - 65 million cubic metres - to cover volumes allegedly stolen by Ukraine.Cut it now, Mr Putin told Gazprom CEO Alexei Miller live on Russian TV, amid promises to boost EU supplies via smaller pipelines in Belarus and Turkey instead.

A delegation of European Commission and Czech EU presidency officials is in Kiev on a fact-finding mission on Tuesday, with EU officials to also meet Gazprom staff in Berlin the same day.A meeting of the Gas Co-ordination Group - bringing together EU member states, Russian and Ukrainian energy experts - has also been tabled for Friday in Brussels.The commission has so far said it would not intervene in the dispute unless it affected EU consumers, calling it a commercial and bilateral matter for Russia and Ukraine.Most EU states at a meeting of EU deputy ambassadors in Brussels on Monday took the same line, despite Lithuanian calls for the EU to help Ukraine in what Vilnius sees as Russian political bullying.It was repeated many times that this is a purely commercial dispute, Czech EU presidency spokesman Radek Honzak told EUobserver. Lithuania does not speak for the European Union.The gas row erupted on 1 January after Gazprom accused Naftogaz of not paying its 2008 bill and after Ukraine rejected a 150 percent price increase for 2009 gas deliveries.The EU gets about one fifth of its daily gas needs from Russia via Ukraine.

EU lobbying registry has no real benefit
LEIGH PHILLIPS 06.01.2009 @ 18:05 CET

EUOBSERVER / BRUSSELS - A UK cross-party parliamentary committee inquiry into the lobbying industry has issued a report that criticises the European Commission's voluntary registry of lobbyists as having no real benefit and of being no model for the introduction of a similar registry in Britain. After a year and a half of investigations into the sector and its influence on legislation, the eleven-member Public Administration Select Committee on Monday (5 January) called for the creation of a registry of lobbying activity for the UK, but insists that, unlike in the case of the commission's current framework, lobbyists should be forced to sign up to it.

We see no advantage whatsoever to a voluntary register, which, as has been shown in the European Commission's case, the report reads, allows those who wish to hide the nature and scale of their activity to do so, and leads to the availability of uneven and partial information of no real benefit to those wishing to assess the scale and nature of lobbying activity.The UK report looked at existing legislation on lobbying in Australia, Canada, the EU, Germany and the United States and found that the EU had produced the weakest framework of the bunch.Having compared the different national strategies, the MPs concluded that the best result would be achieved if a lobbying registry was mandatory and covered all those involved in influencing decision-makers. The registry should also be managed and enforced by an oversight body funded by lobbyists but staffed externally and with robust input from outside the industry.In another break with the commission's registry, the MPs also call for any registry to include the names of individual lobbyists. The commission registry contains no names apart from those of the lobbying firms.The UK deputies also want to see all information made publicly available about contacts between lobbyists and decision makers, including diary records and minutes of meetings, whenever they meet. Owen Espley, a campaigner for lobbying transparency with Friends of the Earth in England, Wales and Northern Ireland, said the result of the committee's inquiry was long overdue.Its account of the commission's registry is entirely accurate, he said. The commission should take into account its domestic recommendations for the EU as a whole when it reviews the operation of its registry after a year.A voluntary registry will always fail to cover all actors involved in lobbying.The commission's registry was launched in June last year. As of today, some 800 have signed up.

Transparency campaigners estimate that between 15 and 20,000 lobbyists attempt to influence legislation in Brussels, a figure also often quoted by commissioner Kallas.

New joint registry with parliament will be mandatory

But the commission brushed off the criticism, saying it is happy that its transparency initiative is now being picked up by the member states.We welcome that the debate on lobbying has moved down to the EU member state level, said Valerie Rampi, spokesperson for administration commissioner Siim Kallas, the architect of the registry.The commission really picked up this initiative from scratch in 2005, she added, speaking to this website. Before that time, there was very little regulation of lobbying in EU capitals.She said that the commission will be following closely how the debate progresses in the UK and what the government will do.Although the report was published [on Monday], the work on it happened in the autumn, and the number of those having registered since has gone up quite a bit, although we note that there is still a problem with lawyers and think-tanks, who have contributed their fair share.She also said that the work the commission is doing in partnership with the European Parliament, to develop a one-stop shop, so that lobbyists only have to register once rather than with both the institutions, should deal with worries that the current register is voluntary and that individuals are not registered.It will be de facto mandatory and name names, as every individual lobbyist has to register to get an access card in order to enter the buildings.The Council of Ministers, however - representing the member states, and the most secretive of the EU's three main institutions - will not be participating in the project.The group charged with the common lobby registry is expected to present its proposals in June.

UN School: Media Absolves Hamas JAN 7,09
Dear HonestReporting Subscriber

With Hamas using the civilian population of Gaza as a human shield, we warned in our last communique of the imminent danger of a future mass casualty event and the increased pressure on Israel from media reaction.With Hamas losing on the battlefield, we posited that the terrorist group would hit back by cynically causing civilian casualties to achieve what it could not do on the battlefield - bringing about intense pressure on Israel to halt its military operation.Tragically, Palestinian civilians lost their lives on Tuesday as an Israeli tank shell hit a UN school where they were sheltering.In the past, journalists have complained that Israel has been too slow to present its side of the story to make the print deadlines. This time, the media has no such excuse. With righteous indignation, many media outlets have condemned Israel, choosing to ignore the responsibility that Hamas bears for this tragedy, which becomes clear following an initial IDF investigation into the incident:

Hamas terrorists fired mortar bombs from the area of the school towards Israeli forces, who returned fire towards the source of the shooting. The Israeli return fire landed outside the school, yet a series of explosions followed, indicating the probable presence of munitions and explosives in the building. Intelligence indicates that among those killed were Immad Abu Iskar and Hassan Abu Iskar, two known Hamas mortar crewmen. While the investigation of the incident continues, one crucial detail is already apparent: this tragedy occurred because Hamas consistently uses its own population as human shields. While betting that Israel will hesitate to strike back at areas with civilians present, Hamas covers its bet with the knowledge that should civilians be harmed, Hamas still wins since Israel will be censured by the world's media.According to the Associated Press, two Palestinian residents said they saw a small group of militants firing mortar rounds from a street near the school, where 350 people had gathered to get away from the shelling. They spoke on condition of anonymity for fear of reprisal.Make sure that your local media outlet covers this tragic incident fairly and from both sides of the story.This is not the first time that Palestinian terrorists have abused UN school facilities.

Israel conditionally welcomes cease-fire proposal
By Ibrahim Barzak And Matti Friedman, The Associated Press JAN 7,09

GAZA CITY, Gaza - Israel ordered a pause in its Gaza offensive for three hours Wednesday to allow food and fuel to reach besieged Palestinians, and a government spokesman said it welcomes an Egyptian-French cease-fire proposal as long as Hamas halts militant rockets and weapons smuggling. Hamas said it would only support a deal that included an opening of Gaza's borders. French President Nicolas Sarkozy said in Paris that both Israel and the moderate Palestinian leadership in charge of the West Bank had accepted the truce proposal. And in Turkey, a diplomat said that country will be given the task of constructing an international force for Gaza.

However, Israel said it would support the proposal only if it halts hostile fire from Hamas in Gaza and includes measures to prevent the militant group from rearming, said government spokesman Mark Regev. A Hamas official offered similar cautions. Israel is still widening and escalating its aggression and is not giving any positive signals in response to these efforts, Ghazi Hammad said. With criticism rising of the operation's spiraling civilian death toll and Gazans increasingly suffering the effects of nonstop airstrikes and shelling, Israel's military opened humanitarian corridors to allow aid supplies to reach Palestinians. Israeli military spokesman Peter Lerner said the recess in offensive operations was aimed at allowing in supplies and fuel and would last from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m local time (6 a.m. to 9 a.m. EST). He said similar lulls in the coming days would be considered. However, Lerner said that even during the pause for every attack against the army, there will be a response. Gaza residents reported scattered gunfire and explosions even after it was supposed to have gone into effect, but the scale of fighting appeared to drop.

As Israel's leadership met in the morning in Tel Aviv, sounds of heavy gunfire and thick plumes of smoke engulfed the Zeitoun neighbourhood east of Gaza City. Israel said it struck 40 Hamas targets during the hours of darkness. Gaza health officials said new strikes Wednesday morning killed eight people. Outrage over an Israeli strike Tuesday near a UN school continued, with the UN agency responsible for the building demanding an impartial investigation into the attack. Gaza health officials put the death toll from the strike at 39, while the UN said 40 were killed. Israel said its forces fired at militants who launched mortars from that location. About 300 of the more than 670 Palestinians killed so far are civilians, according to Palestinian and UN figures. Of those killed, at least 130 are children age 16 and under, says the Gaza-based Palestinian Center for Human Rights, which tracks casualties.

Gaza truce proposed after Israel shelling kills 30 By IBRAHIM BARZAK and JASON KEYSER, Associated Press Writers JAN 6,09

GAZA CITY, Gaza – France and Egypt announced an initiative to stop the fighting in Gaza late Tuesday, hours after Israeli mortar shells exploded near a U.N. school sheltering hundreds of people displaced by the onslaught on Hamas militants. At least 30 Palestinians died, staining streets with blood.The Egyptian and French presidents didn't release details of their proposal, saying only that it involved an immediate cease-fire to permit humanitarian aid into Gaza and talks to settle the differences between Israel and the Islamic militants of Hamas who rule the small coastal territory.They said they were awaiting a response from Israel. Israeli officials in Jerusalem declined immediate comment on the announcement, which came amid diplomatic efforts by the U.S. and other nations to resolve a conflict that has seen 600 people killed in 11 days.Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice weclomed the initiative, but cautioned that no agreement would succeed unless it halted Hamas rocket attacks on Israel and arms smuggling into Gaza.Earlier in the day, President-elect Barack Obama broke his silence on the crisis, saying that the loss of civilian life in Gaza and in Israel is a source of deep concern for me. He declined to go further, reiterating his stance that the U.S. has only one president at a time.

Israel's military said its shelling at the school — the deadliest single episode since Israeli ground forces invaded Gaza on Saturday after a week of air bombardment — was a response to mortar fire from within the school and said Hamas militants were using civilians as cover.Two residents of the area who spoke with The Associated Press by telephone said they saw a small group of militants firing mortar rounds from a street near the school, where 350 people had gathered to get away from the shelling. They spoke on condition of anonymity for fear of reprisal.Majed Hamdan, an AP photographer, rushed to the scene shortly after the attacks. At the hospital, he said, many children were among the dead.I saw women and men — parents — slapping their faces in grief, screaming, some of them collapsed to the floor. They knew their children were dead, he said. In the morgue, most of the killed appeared to be children. In the hospital, there wasn't enough space for the wounded.He said there appeared to be marks on the pavement of five separate explosions in area of the school.An Israeli defense official, speaking on condition of anonymity because he was not allowed to make the information public, said it appeared the military used 120-mm shells, among the largest mortar rounds.U.N. officials demanded an investigation of the shelling. The carnage, which included 55 wounded, added to a surging civilian toll and drew mounting international pressure for Israel to end the offensive against Hamas.At a news conference in Sharm-el-Sheik, Egypt, Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak said the truce proposal offered by him and French President Sarkozy envisioned an immediate end to combat, so humanitarian supplies can safely enter Gaza.Mubarak said the plan also calls for an urgent meeting between Israel and the Palestinians to discuss ways to resolve the conflict and provide necessary guarantees to ensure fighting doesn't erupt again.There was no indication of the plan's chances. Sarkozy said at the news conference that he saw it as a small hope for ending the Gaza violence.Sarkozy said he had spoken to Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert to inform him of the initiaitve and was awaiting a response.In Jerusalem, Olmert's spokesman, Mark Regev, told AP: We are holding off comments on that for the time being.

At U.N. headquarters, Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas welcomed the proposal. I express my support for the plan set in motion today by President Mubarak and President Sarkozy, said Abbas, who was in New York for a Security Council meeting on the Gaza crisis. Israeli officials have said any cease-fire agreement must prevent further rocket attacks by Gaza militants and put in place measures to prevent the smuggling of missile and other weapons into the small Palestinian territory. Rice told the Security Council meeting that the U.S. understood the growing desire for a cease-fire. In this regard, we are pleased by, and wish to commend, the statement of the president of Egypt and to follow up on that initiative, she said. But Rice added that any solution must address Israel's security. There must be a solution this time that does not allow Hamas to use Gaza as a launching pad against Israeli cities. It has to be a solution that does not allow the rearmament of Hamas, and it must be a solution that finds a way to open (border) crossings so that Palestinians in Gaza can have a normal life, she said. In the wake of the criticism over civilian casualties, Israel agreed to set up a humanitarian corridor to ship vital supplies into the Gaza Strip, an idea that had been raised by the U.N. Security Council. Under the plan, Israel would suspend attacks in certain areas to allow people to get supplies. At U.N. headquarters, Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon called the Israeli bombardment of U.N. facilities in Gaza totally unacceptable. Israel's shells have fallen around three schools, including the girls school hit Tuesday, and a health center for Palestinian refugees. Ban added that it was equally unacceptable for militants to take actions that endanger Palestinian civilians, referring to the practice of militants making attacks from residential areas. Some 15,000 Palestinians have packed the U.N.'s 23 Gaza schools because their homes were destroyed or to flee the violence. The U.N. provided the Israeli military with GPS coordinates for all of them. The three mortar shells that crashed down on the perimeter of the U.N. school struck at midafternoon, when many people in the densely populated camp were outside getting some fresh air, thinking an area around a school was safe.

Images recorded by a cameraman from AP Television News showed crowds fleeing the scene, pavements smeared with blood and battered bodies being carried off by medics and bystanders. A youth who limped away was helped along by several others. Sandals lay scattered on the pavement by a pock-marked wall. There's nowhere safe in Gaza. Everyone here is terrorized and traumatized, said John Ging, head of Gaza operations for the United Nations Relief and Works Agency. An Israeli military statement said it received intelligence that the dead at the girls school included Hamas operatives, among them members of a rocket-launching squad. It identified two of them as Imad Abu Askar and Hassan Abu Askar. Two residents who spoke to an AP reporter by phone said the two brothers were known to be low-level Hamas militants. They said a group of militants — one of them said four — were firing mortar shells from near the school. An Israeli shell targeted the men, but missed and they fled, the witnesses said. Then another three shells landed nearby, exploding among civilians, they said, refusing to allow their names to be published because they feared for their safety. A total of 71 Palestinians were killed Tuesday — with just two confirmed as militants, Gaza health officials said. An Israeli infant was wounded by one of about two dozen rockets fired into southern Israel by Gaza militants. Eleven Israelis have been killed since the offensive began: three civilians and a soldier by rocket fire and seven soldiers in the ground offensive, according to Isaeli officials. Associated Press writers Ibrahim Barzak reported this story from Gaza City and Jason Keyser from Jerusalem.

Fears mount of Gaza conflict spill over in Europe By JOHN LEICESTER, Associated Press Writer – Tue Jan 6, 2:12 pm ET

PARIS – Government officials and Jewish leaders are concerned the conflict in Gaza may spill over into violence in Europe, with attacks reported against Jews and synagogues in France, Sweden and Britain.Assailants rammed a burning car into the gates of a synagogue in Toulouse, in southwest France, Monday night.A Jewish congregation in Helsingborg, in southern Sweden, was attacked Monday night by someone who broke a window and threw in something that was burning, said police spokesman Leif Nilsson. And on Sunday slogans, including murderers ... You broke the cease-fire, were daubed on Israel's Embassy in Stockholm.In Denmark, a 27-year-old Dane born in Lebanon to Palestinian parents is alleged to have injured two young Israelis last week in a shooting police suspect could be linked to the Gaza crisis. Belgium ordered police in Antwerp and Brussels to be on increased state of alert Tuesday after recent pro-Palestinian protests ended in violence and arrests.France has Western Europe's largest Jewish and Muslim communities and a history of anti-Semitic violence flaring when tensions in the Middle East are high. In 2002, some 2,300 Jews left France for Israel because they felt unsafe. Even in normal times, anti-Semitic incidents are not uncommon.President Nicolas Sarkozy warned in a statement Tuesday that France would not tolerate violence linked to the Gaza crisis. A day earlier, his interior minister said she was concerned about the prospect of contagion and met with the heads of the two main Muslim and Jewish groups and police officials to stress the need to preserve national unity.

Jews in the small Strasbourg suburb of Lingolsheim in eastern France woke up Tuesday to find graffiti with words like assassins spray-painted on the outside walls of their synagogue. The community filed a complaint for degradation of a place of worship, the mayor's office said.Damage to the synagogue in Toulouse was limited to a blackened gate. Police said unlighted gasoline bombs were found in a car nearby and in the synagogue's yard. A local Jewish leader, Armand Partouche, said he believed the assailants fled when the building's alarm went off.Local authorities promised Tuesday to boost security for synagogues and other Jewish sites in the city, Partouche said.We really fear that anti-Semitism will spring up again and that the current conflict will be transposed to our beautiful French republic, Partouche said.French Muslim leader Mohammed Moussaoui condemned the attack, saying no motive could justify an assault on any place of worship.Interior Ministry spokesman Gerard Gachet said police have not noted an increase in violence against Jews linked to the Gaza crisis. But he said tensions are likely.In Britain, the Community Security Trust, a Jewish defense group, said it had seen a rise in anti-Semitic incidents since the start of Israel's offensive against Gaza. The group said it recorded 20-25 incidents across the country in the past week — a sizable increase from 2-3 incidents usually reported to the group over the Christmas-New Year period.Police are investigating an arson attempt Sunday on a synagogue in north London. Assailants splashed liquid on the door and set it on fire. Police would not speculate on whether the attack was linked to the Gaza crisis.In another incident last week, a gang of 15-20 youths walked along the main street in Golders Green, a largely Jewish neighborhood in north London, shouting Jew and Free Palestine at passers-by, said Community Security Trust spokesman Mark Gardner.Associated Press Writers Jill Lawless in London, Jan M. Olsen in Copenhagen, Malin Rising in Stockholm, Robert Wielaard in Brussels and Audrey Sommazi in Toulouse contributed to this report.

TROUBLE IN THE HOLY LAND Cleric demands death for Israelis Dispatch [them] to the hellfire, on the wings of the Qassam rockets' January 06, 2009 10:44 pm Eastern 2009 WorldNetDaily

Egyptian cleric Safwat Higazi demanding death for Israelis

An Egyptian cleric has made a television appearance to demand death for Israelis who are attacking positions in the Gaza strip from which members of the Hamas terrorist organization are launching rockets into Israel. Allah is with us, and there is nobody with them. Allah is our God, and there is nobody with them. We say to them: We are not equal. Our dead go to Paradise, while your dead go to the hellfire, said Egyptian cleric Safwat Higazi in an appearance on Al-Aqsa Television just days ago.

We say to them that while our martyrs celebrate in Paradise, your dead find themselves in the Hellfire. We say to you: Dispatch those sons of apes and pigs to the hellfire, on the wings of the Qassam rockets.The speech was documented and translated by the Middle East Media Research Institute, or MEMRI. The video of the television statement is available on the organization's website for readers who wish to register there. Being killed is nothing new to us. It is what we desire and hope for. It is martyrdom, by Allah. This is Allah's victory coming to us. It is Paradise with the first drop of blood of the martyr, Higazi states. I refuse to accept condolences or consolation over a martyr. It saddens me immensely when I see on TV a Palestinian woman from Gaza crying and wailing over her martyr. By Allah, I never see such things among the people of Palestine, the people of Gaza. We always see the mothers and wives of the martyrs in Palestine wailing for joy, and preparing another martyr, another man, to raise the banner, he continues. He suggests that the threat of death means nothing. You are threatening us with what our souls yearn for," he said. He expresses a desire that he could be on the battlefield, carrying his gun and gear. You [in Hamas] are the ones upon whom Jesus, son of Mary, will descend, preaching the religion of the Prophet Muhammad in your land. You are paving the way for the war foretold by the Prophet Muhammad: Judgment Day will not come until the Muslims fight the Jews. The Jews will hide behind stones and trees, but the stones and trees will say: Oh Muslim, oh servant of Allah, there is a Jew behind me, come and kill him. You are the ones preparing the ground for this, preparing the ground for the return of the Caliphate in the path of the prophets.

He says jihad is our path.

The [Jews], who are as smooth as a viper, and who lick their lips as [does] a speckled snake, will never live with us in peace and harmony. They deserve to be killed. They deserve to die, he states. They are the ones at whom the Qassam rockets should be fired. You should not care if you hit a man, a woman, or a child. Just like they killed your children – kill their children. Just like they killed your women – kill their women. Just like they destroyed your mosques – destroy their places of worship. Destroy ... everything over there.WND reported just one day earlier Hamas leader Mahmoud Zahar promised his organization would kill Jewish children anywhere. They have legitimized the murder of their own children by killing the children of Palestine, he said in the television broadcast. They have legitimized the killing of their people all over the world by killing our people, he said in the report, according to the London Times. Islam expert Robert Spencer, director JihadWatch.org, reacted to Zahar's threat.Behold the brazen hypocrisy: Hamas launches attacks from civilian areas and uses children as human shields, and then uses the deaths of Palestinian children to justify murdering Jewish children anywhere in the world, he said. MEMRI monitors Middle East media, translating and reporting on its contents.

Gaza Crisis EU delegation in Egypt for Gaza talks 05/01/09 13:20

As the fighting in Gaza has intensified so have diplomatic efforts to end it. Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak has held talks with a high level EU delegation. Hamas officials were also due in Egypt for the group’s first entry into talks since the combat erupted. French President Nicolas Sarkozy is visiting the region today for discussions with Israeli leaders. He had voiced his concerns about Israel’s actions in a meeting with Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni in Paris earlier. There have been many calls for a ceasefire from the international community, but the UN Security Council has so far failed to agree on a strong statement on the conflict. The UN is most concerned about the worsening conditions inside Gaza. Israel said it is letting some aid into the Strip but has rejected talk of a humanitarian crisis.

Gaza conflict spreads to Europe with Jews attacked By JOHN LEICESTER, Associated Press Writer JAN 6,09

PARIS – Signs are mounting that the conflict in Gaza is starting to spill over into violence in Europe's towns and cities, with assaults against Jews and arson attacks on Jewish congregations in France, Sweden and Britain.Assailants rammed a burning car into the gates of a synagogue in Toulouse, in southwest France, on Monday night. A Jewish congregation in Helsingborg, in southern Sweden, also was attacked Monday night by someone who broke a window and threw in something that was burning, said police spokesman Leif Nilsson. Neighbors alerted rescue services before the fire took hold.Someone also started a blaze outside the premises last week. And on Sunday slogans including murderers ... You broke the cease-fire and don't subject Palestine to ethnic cleansing were daubed on Israel's embassy in Stockholm.In Denmark, a 27-year-old Dane born in Lebanon of Palestinian parents is alleged to have injured two young Israelis last week, opening fire with a handgun in a shooting that police suspect could be linked to the Gaza crisis.France has Western Europe's largest Jewish and Muslim communities and a history of anti-Semitic violence flaring when tensions in the Middle East are high. In 2002, some 2,300 Jews left France for Israel because they felt unsafe.President Nicolas Sarkozy warned in a statement Tuesday that France would not tolerate violence linked to the Gaza crisis. A day earlier, his interior minister said she was concerned about the prospect of contagion and met with the heads of the two main Muslim and Jewish groups and police officials to stress the need to preserve national unity.

Damage to the synagogue in Toulouse was limited to a blackened gate, and there were no injuries even though a rabbi was giving a course to adults inside, authorities said. They said unlighted gasoline bombs were also found in a car nearby and in the synagogue's yard. A local Jewish leader, Armand Partouche, said he believed the assailants had planned to torch the synagogue, but fled when the building's alarm went off.It could have been very, very serious, Partouche said in a telephone interview. There were people inside; there could have been deaths.He said Jewish leaders are asking Toulouse authorities for reinforced security for the city's synagogues.We really fear that anti-Semitism will spring up again and that the current conflict will be transposed to our beautiful French republic, he said.In Britain, the Community Security Trust, a Jewish defense group, said it had seen a rise in anti-Semitic incidents since the start of Israel's offensive against Gaza. The group said it had recorded 20-25 incidents across the country in the past week that it believed were connected with Gaza, including an arson attempt on a synagogue in north London on Sunday.London police are investigating the attack, in which suspects splashed flammable liquid on the door and set it on fire.Community Security Trust spokesman Mark Gardner said that in another incident last week a gang of 15-20 youths walked along the main street in Golders Green, a largely Jewish neighborhood in north London, shouting Jew and Free Palestine at passers-by.It could get worse, Gardner said. We tend to see these things happen in waves.The government in Belgium on Tuesday ordered police in Antwerp and Brussels to be on increased alert after recent pro-Palestinian protests ended in violence and dozens of arrests. Police said burning rags were shoved through the mailbox of a Jewish home in Antwerp last weekend. Damage was limited and no arrests were made.

In the Danish shooting, one Israeli man was shot in the arm and another in the leg as they were selling hair care products in a shopping mall. Eli Ruvio, who owns the company that operated the stands, said his employees have been harassed by Muslim youths since they set up three kiosks in the shopping center in August.They kept cursing and shouting at us, Ruvio told The Associated Press. He added that the Muslim youths also threw mud and firecrackers at the employees and spat at them.Ruvio recalled an episode Dec. 27 when some of the youths shouted slaughter all the Jews.I told my employees not to speak in Hebrew and lie about where they come from, they should say there were from Spain or somewhere else. If people ask you where you are from, never say you're from Israel, he said. Associated Press Writers Jill Lawless in London, Jan M.

Chronology of Israel's relationship with Gaza By The Associated Press JAN 6,09

• June 1967: Israel captures the Egyptian-controlled Gaza Strip during six-day Mideast war. An Israeli census put the population at 380,000, at least half of whom were refugees from Israel. Today the population stands at about 1.5 million. The U.N. lists just over 1 million as refugees and their descendants.

• December 1987: A clash in the Jebaliya refugee camp sets off Palestinian uprising, which lasted until 1993 and claimed the lives of more than 2,000 Palestinians and 192 Israelis. The militant Islamic Hamas is formed early in the uprising.

• September 2005: Israel withdraws its troops and all of its 8,500 Jewish settlers. It retains control of Gaza's airspace, coastal waters and border crossings.

• June 2007: Hamas violently seizes control of Gaza after routing forces loyal to rival Fatah faction of President Mahmoud Abbas.

• June 2008: Hamas and Israel reach truce to halt the cross-border rocket attacks and end Israeli offensives in Gaza.

• November 2008: Palestinians resume rocket and mortar fire into Israel after Israeli incursion.

• Dec. 19, 2008: Hamas formally declares the truce over, rocket fire on Israel intensifies.

• Dec. 27, 2008: Israel launches a fierce air offensive, killing more than 200 Palestinians in the first day.

• Jan. 3: Thousands of Israeli troops launch a ground offensive in Gaza.

Gaza fighting continues as diplomatic efforts falter
ELITSA VUCHEVA Today JAN 6,09 @ 09:35 CET

The Israeli incursion into the Gaza Strip continued on Tuesday (6 January), reaching Gaza city, despite international calls for ceasefire and multiplying diplomatic efforts in the region.Israeli troops clashed with Palestinian militants on the edge of the densely populated Gaza City, home to around 1.4 million people, on Monday night, with fighting still raging in the city in the early hours of Tuesday, news agencies report.Israeli tanks also entered Khan Yunis, the largest city in southern Gaza.The third night of Israel's ground assault - the eleventh day of the war on Gaza - brings the death toll on the Palestinian side to around 550 people, including around 100 children, according to emergency services figures reported by the AFP news agency.More than 2,500 have been wounded.For its part, Hamas has continued its rocket fire on Israel. Five Israeli civilians and one soldier have been killed so far by Hamas militants, while three Israeli soldiers died and 24 were wounded in a friendly fire incident in northern Gaza.Meanwhile, international calls for a truce have continued, with the US State Department saying it was seeking a unlimited tripartite ceasefire focussing on Hamas - including a halt to rocket firing into Israel, a re-opening of crossings on the border and addressing the issue of tunnels used for smuggling via Egypt - and a high-level EU delegation meeting both Israeli and Palestinian politicians on Monday.But Czech foreign minister Karel Schwarzenberg – whose country currently holds the rotating EU presidency – said the EU's role in the conflict would be limited to trying to mediate a solution at this stage, rather than looking into the content of a possible truce proposal.

We didn't have a specific plan for the ceasefire because the ceasefire must be concluded by the parties. We can help it, mediate, assist a solution, but it is not up to us to propose the conditions of the ceasefire, which should be established as soon as possible, Mr Schwarzenberg said, the Jerusalem Post reports. French President Nicolas Sarkozy also met both Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert in Jerusalem and Palestinian President Mahmud Abbas in Ramallah on Monday, and expressed his deep concern at the situation.He called the Hamas rocket attacks on Israel irresponsible and unforgivable, while calling on Israel to take the risk of peace.Following his statement that Hamas bore a heavy responsibility for the suffering of the Palestinians in Gaza, Mr Sarkozy was accused by Hamas of being totally biased.Israel rejects immediate ceasefire.

Despite the appeals, Israel rejected the possibility of an immediate ceasefire with foreign minister Tzipi Livni saying: Hamas targets Israel whenever it likes and Israel shows restraint.This is no longer going to be the equation in this region. When Israel is being targeted, Israel is going to retaliate.Mr Olmert also later told the French president that Israel's invasion would continue as long as Hamas could fire rockets at Israel.The results of the operation must be ... that Hamas must not only stop firing, but must no longer be able to fire, he was quoted as saying by AFP.Meanwhile, an official from Mr Olmert's office told the Jerusalem Post that Tel Aviv was aware the war would end one day, while stressing the international community's role in the process.Ultimately, we understand that on the day this is over, regional and international actors will have an important role to play in maintaining the quiet, and specifically in preventing the re-arming of Hamas, the official said.

HOARDING OF GOLD AND SILVER

DOCTOR DOCTORIAN FROM ANGEL OF GOD
then the angel said, Financial crisis will come to Asia. I will shake the world.

JAMES 5:1-3
1 Go to now, ye rich men, weep and howl for your miseries that shall come upon you.
2 Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are motheaten.
3 Your gold and silver is cankered; and the rust of them shall be a witness against you, and shall eat your flesh as it were fire. Ye have heaped treasure together for the last days.

REVELATION 18:10,17,19
10 Standing afar off for the fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas that great city Babylon, that mighty city! for in one hour is thy judgment come.
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: 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.

REVELATION 13:16-18
16 And he(FALSE POPE) causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:(CHIP IMPLANT)
17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.(6-6-6) A NUMBER SYSTEM

Germany nears agreement on new stimulus package
HONOR MAHONY Today JAN 6,09 @ 09:16 CET

The governing coalition in Germany on Monday (5 January) indicated that its latest economic stimulus package could run to €50 billion over two years.According to Germany daily Die Welt, Chancellor Angela Merkel's Christian Democrats (CDU) and their junior coalition partner, the Social Democrats (SPD), have still to agree which measures should be financed with the money.While both sides continue to work on the details of the package, it is expected to deliver help for business, more infrastructure spending and modest tax cuts. Tax was one of the areas causing the most difficulty. The conservatives wanted to see sharp tax cuts included in the measures while the SPD were pushing for a rise in taxes on the rich.Germany has been widely criticised for acting too slowly after the scale of the global financial crisis became apparent in the second half of 2008.Ms Merkel was dubbed Madame Non in some European quarters and a first stimulus package of €23 billion unveiled in the autumn of last year was derided for being too small.

Natural gas shortages slam some European nations By MARIA DANILOVA, Associated Press Writer Maria JAN 06,09

KIEV, Ukraine – A natural gas crisis loomed over Europe on Tuesday, as a contract dispute between Russia and Ukraine shut off Russian gas supplies to six countries and reduced gas deliveries to several others.At least two Bulgarian cities were totally without gas, and nations like Turkey were turning to Iran to bolster their supplies.In a sharp turnaround, the European Union blasted Russia and Ukraine, saying the sudden cutoff to some of its member countries was completely unacceptable. Just a day ago, the EU was trying to downplay any problems from the gas dispute.In response, Russia and Ukraine agreed to hold new talks on the contract dispute over Russian natural gas that travels to Europe through Ukraine's pipelines. The two neighbors are locked in a dispute over pricing and overdue payments. Russia cut off supplies to Ukraine on Jan. 1 but had promised to keep gas moving to Europe.

The head of the Ukrainian gas company Naftogaz, Oleh Dubina, said he would travel to Moscow on Thursday for new talks. He made the decision after speaking to Alexei Miller, chief executive of Gazprom, Russia's state-controlled monopoly gas supplier.

Given the crisis situation, we are ready to start talks at any moment, said Gazprom spokesman Sergei Kupriyanov.Wednesday is Orthodox Christmas, a holiday in both Russia and Ukraine.The energy dispute sharply escalated Tuesday when six countries on the other end of the pipeline network running from Russia through Ukraine reported a complete shutoff. Russia supplies Europe with about a quarter of its gas, 80 percent of which is shipped through Ukraine.Bulgaria, Greece, Macedonia, Romania, Croatia and Turkey all reported a halt in gas shipments. Croatia said it was temporarily reducing supplies to industrial customers and urged consumers to use gas sparingly in their homes. Bulgaria said it had enough gas for only for a few days.

Bulgaria's President Georgi Parvanov said the country could start immediate preparations to relaunch Unit 3 of its Kozlodui nuclear power plant. The aging two 440-megawatt reactors were shut down two years ago, and Parvanov said one of them could be opened within a month.Two cities in eastern Bulgaria, Varna and Dobrich, were left with no natural gas supplies on Tuesday. In Varna, on the Black Sea coast, the shortage left 12,000 households without central heating amid freezing temperatures.Turkey's Energy Minister Hilmi Guler confirmed the gas cutoff and said the country was trying to compensate with supplies from other sources including another Russian pipeline beneath the Black Sea.During a similar dispute between Ukraine and Russia in 2006, which lasted just three days, several West European countries saw their gas supplies drop by 30 percent or more. That crisis led to criticism of Russia as an unreliable energy partner and spurred talk of finding ways to diversify Europe's energy supply.Up to Monday, the EU has said that the dispute would not affect consumers in the coming weeks. The sudden drops Tuesday, however, increased the diplomatic pressure to find a solution.In a strongly worded statement, the EU complained that gas had been cut without prior warning and in clear contradiction with the reassurances given by the highest Russian and Ukrainian authorities to the European Union.Other countries lost significant amounts of gas as well. Austria lost 90 percent of its normal Russian gas supplies on Tuesday — about half its total supply. It said it had three months' gas reserves but called an emergency meeting at its Economy Ministry.In Slovakia, gas importer SPP AS was considering declaring a state of emergency Tuesday after its gas deliveries from Russia were down by 70 percent.

The Czech Republic and Hungary also reported significant supply drops. The Czech gas company RWE Transgas said it expects only 25 percent of its normal supplies Tuesday from Russia, while Hungary predicted its cut would be greater than the 20 percent it saw on Monday. Moscow and Kiev, meanwhile, blamed each other. Naftogaz said Gazprom had sharply reduced its shipments to Europe through pipelines crossing Ukraine, triggering the cuts. Gazprom accused Ukraine of stealing gas shipments intended for other nations. Kiev denied it was stealing Russian gas. It said was using some of its own gas as fuel to transport the rest of the Russian gas to Europe. Naftogaz says Gazprom is obliged to provide this gas but is refusing. Gazprom said it was sure it could provide Europe with enough gas. We are confident that we will be able to get through this situation without any damage to the gas production and transit system, deputy chairman Alexander Medvedev was quoted as saying by RIA-Novosti. The only issue is gas transit to Europe through Ukraine.On Monday Gazprom said it would cut the amount of gas it ships to Europe through Ukraine by 65.3 million cubic meters, or about 20 percent — the amount it accuses Ukraine of diverting from its transit pipeline network over recent days. Poland was considering limits on deliveries to heavy industry, even though so far Russia has compensated for shortfalls through Ukraine by shipping extra gas to Poland through a pipeline in Belarus. Associated Press writers Veselin Toshkov in Sofia, Bulgaria, Bill Kole in Vienna, and Karel Janicek in Bratislava, Slovakia, contributed to this report.

Russian gas supplies to EU dive overnight
PHILIPPA RUNNER Today JAN 6,09 @ 09:16 CET

Russian supplies of gas to the EU via Ukraine dived by 70 percent overnight from Monday (5 January) to Tuesday Ukraine says, with Bulgarian consumers told to turn off gas stoves after an emergency government meeting.Gazprom has begun pumping gas to the EU via Ukraine at just 92 million cubic metres a day compared to 270 million cubic metres the day before, Ukraine state gas firm Naftogaz said. We do not understand how we will deliver gas to Europe, Naftogaz spokesman Valentin Zemlyansky told newswires. This means that in a few hours, problems with supplies to Europe will begin.Russian gas stopped flowing to Bulgaria, Greece, Macedonia and Turkey at around 3:30 am Sofia time on Tuesday, with the Bulgarian government holding an emergency meeting at 7:00 am and urging people to switch to alternative heating sources.Bulgaria - where temperatures stood at minus seven degrees Celsius on Tuesday and are forecast to hit minus 15 this week - relies on Russia for almost all its gas, while running coal and nuclear power plants as well.We are in a crisis situation, Bulgaria's economy ministry said in a statement.The sudden supply drop marks a sharp escalation in the 2009 gas crisis, putting it on an equal footing with the 2006 gas crunch when Russian levels also dived by 200 million cubic metres overnight.Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin had on Monday instructed Gazprom to cut Ukraine's EU-bound gas by a smaller amount - 65 million cubic metres - to cover volumes allegedly stolen by Ukraine.Cut it now, Mr Putin told Gazprom CEO Alexei Miller live on Russian TV, amid promises to boost EU supplies via smaller pipelines in Belarus and Turkey instead.A delegation of European Commission and Czech EU presidency officials is in Kiev on a fact-finding mission on Tuesday, with EU officials to also meet Gazprom staff in Berlin the same day.A meeting of the Gas Co-ordination Group - bringing together EU member states, Russian and Ukrainian energy experts - has also been tabled for Friday in Brussels.The commission has so far said it would not intervene in the dispute unless it affected EU consumers, calling it a commercial and bilateral matter for Russia and Ukraine.

Most EU states at a meeting of EU deputy ambassadors in Brussels on Monday took the same line, despite Lithuanian calls for the EU to help Ukraine in what Vilnius sees as Russian political bullying.It was repeated many times that this is a purely commercial dispute, Czech EU presidency spokesman Radek Honzak told EUobserver. Lithuania does not speak for the European Union.The gas row erupted on 1 January after Gazprom accused Naftogaz of not paying its 2008 bill and after Ukraine rejected a 150 percent price increase for 2009 gas deliveries.The EU gets about one fifth of its daily gas needs from Russia via Ukraine.

Series of quakes hit eastern Indonesia, killing 1 By MURSIDIN ODE, Associated Press Writer – Mon Jan 5, 1:29 am ET

MANOKWARI, Indonesia – A series of powerful earthquakes killed a 10-year-old girl and seriously injured dozens in remote eastern Indonesia, briefly triggering fears of another tsunami in a country still recovering from 2004's deadly waves.One of the quakes — of magnitude 7.3 — was felt as far away as Australia and sent small tsunamis into Japan's southeastern coast.Residents near the epicenter in Papua province rushed from their homes in search of higher ground shortly after the first 7.6-magnitude quake struck Sunday at 4:43 a.m. local time (1943 GMT), afraid that huge waves might wash over the island.The epicenter was about 85 miles (135 kilometers) from Papua's main city of Manokwari and occurred at a depth of 22 miles (35 kilometers), the U.S. Geological Survey said. It was followed by dozens of aftershocks.Nearly fifty people were admitted to hospitals with broken bones and head wounds, while more than 300 were treated for minor cuts, scrapes and bruises, local health official Henri Sembiring said Monday.About 135 homes and other buildings were badly damaged or toppled in the province, the National Disaster Coordination Agency said.Officials initially reported four deaths, but later discovered three people had died from illnesses.The 10-year-old girl was killed in her home when a wall collapsed, said hospital director Hengky Tewu. Her head was crushed, he said.

Power lines fell, cutting off electricity, and the runway of Manokwari's Rendani airport was cracked, prompting the cancellation of commercial flights.The government initially issued a tsunami warning but lifted it within an hour after it was confirmed that the epicenter was on land, not water.Quakes centered onshore pose little tsunami threat to Indonesia itself, but those close to the coast can churn up large waves that sometimes reach the coastlines of other countries such as Japan.Japan reported tsunamis between 4 inches (10 centimeters) and 16 inches (40 centimeters) high hitting its shores following the temblors.A huge quake off western Indonesia caused the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami that killed about 230,000 people. Four years on, the multibillion dollar rebuilding process is almost complete.

Residents in Papua's Manokwari — a jumble of low-lying brick and cement structures home to 167,000 people — remained wary of aftershocks.We don't feel safe, said Simon, 32, who like many Indonesians goes by one name. He was staying outside with his wife and three kids. It's just in case there are strong aftershocks.Local officials drove through the streets warning people not to return to structures that might be vulnerable if an aftershock hit.The Indonesian Health Ministry was sending an aid team to Manokwari as well as four tons of medical supplies and baby food, spokeswoman Lily Sulistyowati said.Relief agency World Vision Indonesia was flying in 2,000 emergency provision kits, including canned food, blankets and basic medical supplies, said spokeswoman Katarina Hardono. She said its team will try to reach Manokwari by plane, but if needed will make a 36-hour trip by boat. Papua — located about 1,830 miles (2,955 kilometers) east of the capital Jakarta — is among the nation's least developed areas, and a low-level insurgency has simmered in the resource-rich region for years. It is off limits to foreign reporters. The quake was felt 800 miles (1,300 kilometers) southwest of Papua in Australia's northern city of Darwin but no damage was reported there. Associated Press writers Zakki Hakim and Niniek Karmini contributed to this report from Jakarta.

Guatemalan mudslide kills 35, injures 15 By JUAN CARLOS LLORCA, Associated Press Writer – Tue Jan 6, 7:19 am ET

GUATEMALA CITY – Rescuers dug through tons of mud late Monday in search of more victims of a massive landslide that buried a long stretch of highway in northern Guatemala, killing at least 35 coffee workers and travelers using the road.Vice President Rafael Espada said he feared the death toll could rise by at least a dozen more. About 15 other people were injured when the mass of mud and rock roared down a mountain Sunday near the village of Aquil Grande.Dozens of families watched anxiously as 165 rescuers dug through the collapsed mountainside, which continued to rain down rocks and dirt. Rescuers lined up the dead at a cemetery where people tried to identify them.Roadwork along the highway could have triggered the slide, said Angel Estrada, the head of the rescue effort.Authorities still do not know how many people were in the area when the landslide buried more than a kilometer (nearly a mile) of highway.At least 35 people were killed, said Hugo Arvizu, a spokesman for Guatemala's National Disaster Prevention Agency.Leopoldo Ical, mayor of the nearby city of San Cristobal Verapaz, said at least 100 people were in the area, boarding or disembarking from buses. Many of the victims were laborers from nearby communities who worked on coffee plantations, he said.We are very dismayed by this tragedy, Ical said. The landslide is so big, we don't have much hope of recovering many more bodies.

Juana Alonso, sobbing, recounted how she lost two sons in the slide. One, 22, was killed while returning to another province with his wife and daughter following a Christmas visit here with the family. The other, 26, was returning home to a nearby village.Two people were killed in a landslide along the same road two weeks ago, and the highway had been blocked since. But scores of coffee workers walked around the barricaded stretch of roadway to reach buses headed for the plantations, Ical said.

About 300 families from the tiny Mayan mountain villages of Aquil Grande and Aquil Pequeno were evacuated Monday to a nearby village to protect them in case more landslides occur in the weakened area.Police also arrested two men who were caught robbing people's homes in Aquil Grande after residents went to see if their loved ones were buried in the landslide.

Thousands displaced by floods in Philippines: officials Jan 3, 2:32 am ET

CAGAYAN DE ORO, Philippines (AFP) – About 5,000 families in the southern Philippines have been displaced by flash floods and large waves spawned by heavy rains, officials said Saturday.Over a hundred houses have been destroyed and many people are fleeing their homes in the face of rising waters in the northern part of the southern island of Mindanao, civil defence officials said.Regional civil defence director Carmelito Lupo said that most of those whose homes were destroyed were from Cagayan de Oro city but officials were still trying to get information on the situation in the surrounding areas.Local officials in Cagayan de Oro said that over 2,000 families had to be evacuated to basketball courts due to rising waters on river banks.Evacuations were also under way in nearby Ginoog City and other areas where flash floods have been reported, said provincial officials.Local officials said two children, aged one and two, were narrowly rescued from the floods but no casualties had been reported yet.

Floods kill five in central Vietnam Fri Jan 2, 9:42 pm

HANOI (Reuters) – Unseasonable floods brought by rains this week have killed at least five people in central Vietnam while 10 others remained missing, the government and state-run media said Saturday.Waters were now receding in main rivers in the region but three including a woman drowned in Quang Nam province and another 44-year-old man died in floods in the neighboring province of Quang Ngai, the government said in a disaster report.A 22-year-old man died in Binh Dinh province while nine fishermen were among the missing after their boats sank, Saturday's Thanh Nien newspaper quoted provincial disaster reports as saying.Floods and storms often strike central Vietnam between August and November but heavy rains since Monday caused by a cold spell hit the region widely exposed to the sea and raised river waters.The government said more than 5,000 homes were submerged and floods also inundated a combined 74,400 hectares of rice in five provinces. The affected area is not the key growing region for rice and coffee, Vietnam's main agro-products for exports.(Reporting by Ho Binh Minh; Editing by Sanjeev Miglani)

Floods, mounting snow ruin buildings in Northwest Fri Jan 2, 9:12 pm ET

PORTLAND, Ore. – A mud slide destroyed a home Friday, briefly trapping its occupants, and flooding, mud and deep snow blocked roads as the latest winter storm pummeled the Northwest.Residents of a home in suburban Lake Oswego called 911 early Friday saying they were trapped after mud flowed into their home, filling the first floor. They escaped out a window and were taken to a hospital, said deputy Fire Marshall Gert Zoutendijk. He said their lives were not in danger.Authorities said 21 nearby homes were evacuated.Outside Portland in Clackamas County, about 30 families were evacuated from a mobile home park because of flooding and about 60 roads were closed. County officials declared a state of emergency.Also in Clackamas County, floods crept into the Estacada library, ruining thousands of books before the water receded. A layer of silt remained.The storm dropped just over 3 inches of rain east of Portland before the sky cleared during the morning, and 3.9 inches fell in Aurora, south of the city.In eastern Washington and northern Idaho, at least two roofs collapsed under the weight of mounting snow Friday.Jeff Roma had been up clearing snow off the roof of his Spokane business, Buck's Tire and Automotive, on Friday morning when the roof started to collapse.I heard it start to go and I had to get off, Roma told The Spokesman-Review.He was not injured.

In nearby Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, a business owner and his dog narrowly escaped from a jewelry store before the roof caved in.The risk of roof collapse caused a Spokane-area Costco to close Friday and hire a contractor to shovel its roof. In addition, three Wal-Mart stores were closed in the region while snow was cleared from their roofs, The Spokesman-Review reported.About 4 to 5 inches of snow fell in Spokane on Friday, bringing the season's total to 69 inches. More snow was expected over the weekend.

Turkey holds suspicious Iran-Venezuela shipment By SELCAN HACAOGLU, Associated Press Writer JAN 6,09

ANKARA, Turkey – Turkey was holding a suspicious shipment bound for Venezuela from Iran because it contained lab equipment capable of producing explosives, a customs official said Tuesday.Suleyman Tosun, a customs official at the Mediterranean port of Mersin, said military experts were asked to examine the material, which was seized last month, and decide whether to let the shipment to go to Venezuela.

Authorities detected the equipment during a search of 22 containers labeled tractor parts, Tosun said. They were brought to Mersin by trucks from neighboring Iran, he said. Turkey's Interior Ministry said an investigation was under way.Experts from Turkey's Atomic Institute determined there were no traces of radioactive material, but said the equipment was enough to set up an explosives lab, Tosun said. We have asked the military to send experts to determine whether to resume the shipment.Some barrels, labeled with danger signs, contained chemicals. Tosun said details were still unclear.An Iranian embassy official, speaking on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak to the media, said the shipment contained nothing important.Iran and Venezuela operate various joint ventures in Venezuela, including plants to assemble tractors and cars. The two countries also have agreed to team up on petrochemical projects.Associated Press Writer Suzan Fraser in Ankara contributed to this report.

Death toll in Zimbabwe cholera epidemic at 1,732: WHO JAN 6,09

GENEVA (AFP) – At least 1,732 people have died in Zimbabwe's cholera epidemic and the number of cases diagnosed has risen to 34,306, the World Health Organisation said on Tuesday.The organisation last Thursday reported 1,586 dead and 31,656 suspected cases of the water-borne disease.United Nations aid agencies have been warning for weeks that the number of cases could top 60,000, with the impending rainy season likely to facilitate the spread of the disease.All 10 of the country's provinces have been hit, according to UN statistics, which remain incomplete because of a lack of local medical personnel and communications problems.Zimbabweans are also struggling against hyper-inflation, severe food shortages and chronic political instability.

19 Thou shalt not see a fierce people, a people of a deeper speech than thou canst perceive; of a stammering tongue, that thou canst not understand.

JOHN 16:2
2 They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service.

Blast damages fourth Western Canada gas well site Mon Jan 5, 1:35 pm ET

CALGARY, Alberta (Reuters) – Police are investigating what appears to be the fourth bombing of an EnCana Corp natural gas facility in the Western Canadian province of British Columbia, authorities said on Monday.The Royal Canadian Mounted Police said workers for the country's largest energy company found a partly destroyed metering shed at a well near Tomslake, in northeastern British Columbia, on Sunday.No injuries or gas leaks were reported as a result of the explosion, south of Dawson Creek, near the Alberta provincial boundary.The well was shut in as a precaution. It's a single-well site, EnCana spokesman Alan Boras said. Because of the incident, the site was turned over to the RCMP for investigation.Three other EnCana energy facilities in the region have been damaged by explosions since October, and police have yet to announce any suspects.In early December, investigators appealed to the public for help.They said the bombs could have been planted by one person acting alone or a group with some grievance toward the company. Police also said they believed the saboteur, or saboteurs, lived in the region.Gas well valves and other equipment owned by other energy companies have also been vandalized and tampered with in recent weeks.EnCana's damaged wells produce gas from the Montney tight sands formation, one of a host of unconventional gas plays in North America that the industry has targeted for billions of dollars of investment.All four were drilled within the last five years, Boras said.Tight sands and shale gas deposits, located in such regions as British Columbia, Texas and Louisiana, are known for immense size, but require prolific drilling and expensive rock fracturing techniques to maintain production.(Reporting by Jeffrey Jones; editing by Peter Galloway)
