37 Neither shall he regard the God of his fathers,(THIS EU DICTATOR IS JEWISH) nor the desire of women, nor regard any god: for he shall magnify himself above all.(CLAIM TO BE GOD)
38 But in his estate shall he honour the God of forces:(WAR) and a god whom his fathers knew not shall he honour with gold, and silver, and with precious stones, and pleasant things.
39 Thus shall he do in the most strong holds with a strange god,(DESTROY TERROR GROUPS) whom he shall acknowledge and increase with glory: and he shall cause them to rule over many,(HIS ARMY LEADERS) and shall divide the land for gain.

Germany speaks out in favour of European army
HONOR MAHONY Today FEB 8,10 @ 09:20 CET

German foreign minister Guido Westerwelle has said Berlin supports the long term goal of creating a European army, which will bolster the EU's role as a global player.Speaking on Saturday (6 February) at the Munich Security Conference, an annual gathering for high-level discussions on security and defence, Mr Westerwelle said the EU's new institutional rules, the Lisbon Treaty, are not the end but, rather, the beginning for common security and defence policy.The long term goal is the establishment of a European army under full parliamentary control, he said, noting that the German government wants to advance along this path.Mr Westerwelle, who is just a few months into the job as Germany's top diplomat as part of a ruling Christian Democrat and liberal coalition, suggested that moving further on common security and defence will be the motor for greater European integration.With a nod to Nato, the military alliance which competes with the EU in terms of overlapping members and available resources, he said: This is not intended to replace other security structures. More Europe is not a strategy directed against anyone. No one has any reason to fear Europe, but everyone should be able to depend on Europe.

Under EU rules, member states with certain military capacities and the political will to move in this direction can club together to move forward on common defence.
In recent years, the need for an EU army has often been floated in political discussions - politicians in France, the UK and Poland have also spoken favourably of the idea.However, until now it is has always come up against a mix of factors, including a lack of political will, a lack of real military power - except in France and the UK - the complexities of having several neutral member states, the overlap with Nato, and a reluctance to put money into defence coffers, this last compounded by the current economic crisis.Acknowledging the effects of the economic crisis, Mr Westerwelle said member states keen on moving towards creating a common defence policy must pool resources, set priorities and distribute responsibility - even in times of ever scarcer means.Within the EU's 27 member states, France and the UK have the greatest defence means. Their co-operation and willingness is seen as essential for any possible development of EU military defence.In a Strategic Defence Review published last week, Britain called for enhanced military action between itself and France.The return of France to Nato's integrated military structures offers an opportunity for even greater co-operation with a key partner across a range of defence activity, said the paper.Analysts suggest that the pressure on defence budgets caused by the economic downturn may spur further defence sharing among EU member states.

Jewish-Arab Center Prof: No Such Thing as Palestinian Refugees
by Hillel Fendel FEB 8,10

(IsraelNN.com) Prof. Nitza Nachmias of the Jewish-Arab Center in Haifa University says that if it wasn’t for UNRWA and its half-billion dollar annual budget, the Palestinian refugee problem would have been solved long ago.In essence, she told Arutz Sheva’s Shimon Cohen on Sunday, there’s no such thing as Palestinian refugees. If people would stop calling the places in which they live refugee camps, then they would see that these places are just like villages and towns anywhere else, and the inhabitants are totally rehabilitated… Refugee camps are like the maabarot [in which Israel housed its hundreds of thousands of new immigrants from North Africa and elsewhere] in Refugee camps are a fiction, and most of those who claim to be refugees have already been integrated into other countries. the 1950’s or the camps now in Haiti – not the villages with streets and stone houses in what is known as Palestinian refugee camps of today.

They are rehabilitated better than refugees who are not supported by UNRWA, Nachmias said.Practically, factually and legally, there is no such thing as Palestinian refugees.… Refugee camps are a fiction, and most of those who claim to be refugees have already been integrated into other countries.Prof. Nachmias, a senior researcher at the Jewish-Arab Center who also teaches in Asheklon College and the University of Maryland, feels that Israel has taken the wrong approach in dealing with this issue: We can’t simply push it off to the final status talks and say, We don’t accept the demand for the right-of-return because it will destroy the Jewish character of our state; what do they care about our Jewish character? If they deserve to be here, then it’s tough luck on us! Rather, Israel should take a pro-active approach, basing itself on international law and precedents, and declare that the Palestinian refugee issue no longer exists. They are no longer refugees!

Rules for Palestinians are Different?
According to international law, Nachmias explains,a refugee is an individual or family that was forced to run away – but this definition does not extend to children [of the original refugees], a community or a group. The only exception to this rule is the Palestinians, for whom the international laws are apparently different.If it wasn’t for UNRWA, Nachmias indicates, the issue of Palestinian refugees would have gone away a long time ago: UNRWA is [no longer] a welfare agency, but rather an international employment agency for the Palestinians. UNRWA has 30,000 Palestinian employees, with 100 international experts at the helm. It is the biggest employer of Palestinians, and has an annual budget of a half-billion dollars. I discovered documents of pension funds of over a billion dollars a year, managed by brokers in Switzerland. All this for what is defined as a welfare agency whose mandate is renewed every three years.

Send UNRWA Out
Israel must nullify the status of Palestinian refugee camps; there is no other place where the UN controls territory. We must send the UNRWA out and transfer the control of these places to the Palestinian Authority, and then when the status of each individual resident there is reviewed, we will see that none of them match the legal definition of a refugee, but is rather an established citizen.Only in Lebanon are there refugees who are not allowed to work in certain professions; they are a small fraction of the total.Despite the UNRWA’s power and well-oiled financial network, the world will support Israel in this case because it will also remove the onus of the refugees, and also because Israel can show, if it makes the effort, that it is rooted in international law.

Israel Cracks Down on Anti-Zionist Foreigners in Samaria
by Tzvi Ben Gedalyahu FEB 7,10

(IsraelNN.com) The IDF cracked down on the Palestinian Authority’s sheltering foreign anti-Israel protestors and entered Ramallah on Sunday to arrest two women accused of being involved in illegal riots that interfered with Israeli security operations.The PA charged Israel with violating agreements giving it self-rule. However, the same agreements allow Israel to act when its security is endangered. The IDF explained that the two women, Arianda Jove Marti of Spain and Bridgette Chappell of Australia, have been involved in riots protesting the separation barrier.

The women, both of them in their 20s, are activists of the pro-Arab International Solidarity Movement (ISM) and were officially charged by the IDF with remaining illegally in Israel, where one of them entered on a temporary tourist visa and the other on a fake visa. The ISM admitted that the visas were not valid but charged that the women did not break any law.An ISM activist said that about a dozen soldiers arrested the two women early Sunday morning as part of an intensive campaign to prevent a spread of violent demonstrations that have resulted in dozens of injuries to soldiers as well as Arab and foreign protestors, many of them anarchists.Last month, Israel deported a Czech woman who also was arrested in Ramallah.

Battered US east coast digs out, more snow coming by Jo Biddle – Mon Feb 8, 1:12 am ET

WASHINGTON (AFP) – Hundreds of emergency crews battled Monday to clear snow-clogged roads and restore power to thousands of homes across the US east coast before a new storm hits.But despite their best efforts, the US capital remained largely paralyzed, with the federal government announcing it will remain closed for at least one more day and scores of schools and local businesses remaining shut down.An early morning freeze on Sunday, which had turned partially cleared highways into icy skating rinks, gave way to warmer temperatures helping the big melt to get under way, but officials warned travel was still hazardous.This is really challenging for us, and will continue to be a challenge for most of the week, said Laura Southard from the Virginia emergency management center, noting that another storm is due to hit the mid-Atlantic region late Tuesday.With record snowfall of more than three feet (a meter) in many places after a monster blizzard swept across Virginia, Maryland and the US federal capital city, bulldozers were having to move in.This snow is so deep and so heavy that the traditional snow plows can't shovel in some areas. So bulldozers are physically having to lift it up and away, Southard told AFP.

The record snowfall for a storm dubbed Snowmageddon was registered in a small town of Colesville, central Maryland, which was blanketed by 40 inches (101 centimeters), the National Weather Center said.Virginia police had turned out to more than 4,370 calls, with most being traffic crashes or stranded cars. It is believed only three people died as a result of the storm.Progress is being made, but it's going to take a couple more days at least, but even then we can't make any promises, Southard added.Hundreds of thousands of people spent a chilly night with candles and hunkered under blankets without power, although crews working round-the-clock did manage to restore electricity to many homes.But by late Sunday more than 100,000 customers remained without power in the metropolitan area.Many residents across the region were beginning to try to dig out cars, and clear paths, while officials warned not to let children play in the huge piles left by snow plows in case drivers failed to spot them.In another sign that life was beginning to get back to normal after the nation's capital was crippled by the monster storm, some stores and coffee shops were beginning to gradually reopen after a rare shutdown.Reagan domestic airport was still closed Sunday, and there was little likelihood of flights out of the international airports at Baltimore, or Dulles, bogged down by a record 32.4 inches (82 centimeters) of snow.Schools were to remain closed on Monday and Tuesday across most of the region as were local government offices across a swath of northern Virginia and Maryland, at least on Monday.

As many as 40 above-ground metro stations will remain closed another day, authorities announced, while buses will resume limited service only along the city's main thoroughfares -- and only between 9:00 am and 7:00 pm.In a further blow, officials urged sports fans against going to Super Bowl parties on Sunday -- an annual highlight of the social calendar when friends gather to cheer on teams for the finale of the American football season.Traditionally it's a really big day, Super Bowl Sunday, but I would encourage people to stay home, said Ed McDonough, spokesman for the Maryland emergency management center. It is still well below freezing. A little sun and some sand will help, but we are not going to get a lot of melt. There's another storm going and we're not going to be out of the woods for a while.It was the second massive storm to hit the region after a December storm dumped some two feet of snow in the area. And forecasters warned yet another front was moving across from the west coast, prompting the National Weather Service to issue a winter storm watch around the capital from Tuesday afternoon until Wednesday afternoon. Related article: Monster US storm boon for forecasters: expert We are getting a lot of winter fatigue around here now,McDonough told AFP ruefully, as he pulled up outside his snow-bound driveway after a 24-hour shift.

Historic snow strands countless in Mid-Atlantic By NAFEESA SYEED and BEN NUCKOLS, Associated Press Writer – FEB 8,10

WASHINGTON – Tens of thousands of workers in the snowy Mid-Atlantic region were given Monday off to shovel out from a blizzard that buried some areas in nearly 3 feet of snow as another storm loomed.Federal agencies that employ 230,000 in Washington will be closed, as will many businesses and school districts across the region. With more snow expected Tuesday, stranded travelers and those struggling with no electricity wondered when they'd escape the icy, gray mess.You've got a whole city held captive here, Gwen Dawkins, who was trying to get to Detroit, said as she waited at Washington's Reagan National Airport, where all flights had been canceled after 18 inches of snow was recorded by Sunday.Crews plowing streets and homeowners shoveling their walkways faced the possibility of another storm adding to the work. The National Weather Service issued a storm watch for the Washington area Tuesday, saying there was potential for another 5 inches or more of snow. Forecasters expect highs in the low- to mid-30s for the next few days, though sunshine on Monday should help melt some of the snow, said weather service meteorologist Bryan Jackson.The sight of cross-country skiers cascading down monument steps and flying snowballs has since given way to images of people hunched over snow shovels or huddled next to fireplaces.John and Nicole Ibrahim and their 2-year-old son, Joshua, have been without power at their suburban Washington home in Silver Spring, Md., since overnight Friday. They were among hundreds of thousands without electricity across the region, and utilities warned it could be days before electricity is restored to everyone.We were all bundled up in the same bed together and (Joshua) was coughing in his sleep and his heart was racing, and we worried he might be getting pneumonia, Nicole Ibrahim said.The National Weather Service called the storm historic and reported a foot of snow in parts of Ohio and 2 feet or more in Washington, Delaware, New Jersey and Pennsylvania. Parts of Virginia, Maryland and West Virginia got closer to 3 feet.Eric Berry, a plow driver for Baltimore, said he worked 12-hour shifts Saturday and Sunday. He said overanxious residents were sometimes hindering his ability to clear secondary roads by digging out their cars and moving them into the path of his plow.

They feel like they need to park in the street, so that when it's time to go, they can up and go, Berry said.In Philadelphia, 28.5 inches of snow fell during the storm, just shy of the record 30.7 inches during a January 1996 blizzard. Snow totals were even higher to the west in Pennsylvania, with 31 inches recorded in Upper Strasburg and 30 inches in Somerset.The nearly 18 inches recorded at Reagan National Airport was the fourth-highest storm total for Washington, and airport officials haven't decided when flights would resume.Dawkins, 59, was supposed to leave Washington on Saturday but still hadn't Sunday afternoon because of delays and cancellations. And she said there was no way we're getting out of here tonight.They were very ill-prepared, she said.At nearby Dulles International Airport in Virginia, the record was shattered with 32 inches. Some flights there have resumed.Authorities say most public transportation in Philadelphia has resumed. In Pittsburgh, bus service restarted but light-rail wasn't running. Washington's Metro trains were to be limited Monday to underground rails, and its buses were going to operate on a very limited basis.Despite the snow, watching the Super Bowl was still a priority for many. Eric Teoh, 29, of Arlington, said he borrowed his neighbor's snow shovel and spent at least an hour getting his car out of the snow to head to the Crystal City Sports Pub in Arlington, Va.I was snowed in and I dug my car out today to come here, he said.I couldn't go anywhere.The frigid temperatures and snowy and icy streets did not deter runner Patrick Duffy, 23, from training for the Pittsburgh Marathon in May. He admitted was going slower than usual. I'm trying not to fall. I haven't fallen yet,Duffy said, his eyelashes frosted white.

In Mount Lebanon, a suburb south of Pittsburgh, Robb and Meredith Hartlage were again trying to clear the sidewalk in front of their house. We did a couple hours yesterday. I would say about four hours mixed with sledding,said Robb Hartlage, 40, who said he's not too old to play in the snow. He acknowledged, however, that the shoveling was hard work. I made some old man noises when I got out of bed,he said.

6 soldiers dead, 60 trapped in Kashmir avalanche By AIJAZ HUSSAIN, Associated Press Writer – FEB 8,10

SRINAGAR, India – A massive avalanche hit an Indian army training center at a ski resort town in Indian-controlled Kashmir on Monday, killing at least six soldiers and trapping nearly 60 others.Rescue operations were under way at Gulmarg, a ski resort about 30 miles (50 kilometers) northwest of Srinagar, the main city in Indian Kashmir, said Col. Vineet Sood, an Indian army spokesman in Srinagar.Sood said the avalanche hit a training center at the army's High Altitude Warfare School at about 11 a.m. and swept away soldiers during a training session. He said it was the worst to hit an army camp in the area in many years.We have activated all resources to rescue the buried soldiers, he said.Farooq Ahmed, a top police officer in Kashmir, said casualties could rise and joint rescue teams of police, army and tourism officials had reached the spot where the avalanche struck.G.M. Dar, a local tourist official in the area, told The Associated Press that nearly 200 foreign tourists and an equal number of local tourists skiing in Gulmarg were safe. He said the avalanche hit the army center, located on a high slope, about two miles (three kilometers) from the main town.Frequent rain and heavy snowfall often trigger avalanches and landslides in Kashmir, blocking roads and cutting off tourist resorts like Gulmarg. Gulmarg is also close to the Line of Control, a highly militarized cease-fire line dividing the Himalayan region of Kashmir between India and Pakistan.

The claim over Kashmir has caused two wars between the archrivals since they became independent from Britain in 1947. Hundreds of thousands of soldiers are posted along either side of the Line of Control.Incessant snowfall and rain were hampering the rescue operations, Sood said.Last year in April, an avalanche hit an Indian army post in a separate region close to the de-facto border with Pakistan, killing seven soldiers and wounding at least eight others.

Strong earthquake hits off southern Japan coast
Sun Feb 7, 3:06 am ET

TOKYO – A strong earthquake shook several small islands off Japan's southern coast on Sunday, rattling buildings over 100 miles (160 kilometers) away in Taiwan and causing officials to temporarily issue a tsunami warning.There were no immediate reports of damage or casualties.Japan's Meteorological Agency said the earthquake hit at 3:10 p.m. (0610 GMT; 2:10 a.m. EDT) and registered magnitude 6.6. The U.S. Geological Survey measured it at 6.4.Japanese officials immediately issued a warning for a tsunami about 1.6 feet (50 centimeters) high, but removed the warning about an hour later.The quake was also felt in Taiwan, about 155 miles (250 kilometers) to the east, where residents in Taipei could feel buildings shake.The quake hit 69 miles (110 kilometers) off the southern coast of Miyakojima island, in southern Japan, at a depth of six miles (10 kilometers), the Meteorological Agency said.The small island is about 1,120 miles (1,800 kilometers) southwest of Tokyo.Japan is one of the world's most earthquake-prone countries. In 1995, a magnitude-7.2 quake in the western port city of Kobe killed 6,400 people.

Aceh reconstruction offers hope for Haiti by Jerome Rivet – Sat Feb 6, 10:35 pm ET

JAKARTA (AFP) – Despite the desolation wrought by last month's earthquake, Haiti can salvage hope for the future by looking at how the Indonesian province of Aceh rebuilt after the equally devastating 2004 tsunami.From the flattened streets of the capital Port-au-Prince to the death toll of around 200,000, the situation in Haiti bears many similarities to the horrors experienced by Aceh after its quake-triggered catastrophe.The people of Aceh will also recognise the outpouring of international sympathy and aid, and will remember how, like the Haitians now, they wondered whether it would be enough to get their land back on its feet again.More than five years later, it is difficult to imagine that the Acehnese capital Banda Aceh once resembled the shattered ruins of a town razed by war.Many Acehnese even say their lives are better now than before the tsunami, which was launched by a massive undersea quake and slammed into the deeply Islamic province on the northern tip of Sumatra island.Nothing is perfect but the houses, schools and roads are new and in good condition. Services are also better, said Khairani Arifin, the head of an association for women in Banda Aceh.Perhaps the most significant consequence was a peace pact between the central government in Jakarta and Acehnese separatist rebels, signed in the aftermath of the cataclysm as both sides focused on reconstruction.

Despite its chaotic beginnings, when the local authorities were overwhelmed by the influx of foreign aid workers, the reconstruction of Aceh can be considered a success likely to serve as a model for future disasters of that scale, said Iskandar, who helped coordinate the reconstruction effort.Aid agencies and donors such as the World Bank also learned lessons that will be vital to the rehabilitation of Port-au-Prince, not least the need to sustain and fund the aid effort over the long term.More than 6.7 billion dollars was poured into the rebuilding of Aceh over five years, funding among other things 140,000 new homes, 1,759 schools, 363 bridges and 13 airports.Rod Volway, of Mercy Corps, an NGO still operating in Aceh after most others have completed their missions and gone home, said coordination is one of the conditions of success.A report released Wednesday by the World Bank, comparing the Aceh response to the current plight of Haiti, pinpointed three key lessons from the Aceh experience: the importance of local leadership; empowering survivors to engage in community-based reconstruction; and coordinating global aid.

And of course, speed.

Speed in a post-disaster situation is as important as planning, and to some extent even as important as quality, Wolfgang Fengler, a World Bank specialist who helped Aceh's shattered government respond to the tsunami, said in the report.Don't get hung up on detailed planning exercises. Help the government come up with a reconstruction strategy, but don't make it too long an exercise or a detailed one. Make it a living document.Local coordination and leadership in Aceh was provided by the Aceh-Nias Reconstruction and Rehabilitation Agency (BBR), which was set up quickly by the Jakarta government to oversee local and international aid work.The BBR wrapped up its operations last year with a deserved sense of pride, even if it sometimes found itself in conflict with international agencies and was accused of being soft on corruption, which is endemic to Indonesia.In the absence of an effective government, as is the case in Haiti, international bodies like the World Bank will have to help keep track of where the money is coming from and how it is being spent, analysts said. If you have the thousands of projects that Haiti will have, you need to have somebody who tracks them and makes sense of them. Keeping track of them is not through an IT system, it's through people who know how to deal with data, Fengler said. And that is very important because as you go forward, the government and partners will take many big decisions, especially on where to allocate the money and how to channel it. You need some basis to make these big decisions, and credible data proved crucial in the case of Aceh.Another crucial part of the puzzle is to provide livelihoods as fast as possible to the survivors, aid experts said. Victims can become development workers, aid recipients can turn into community facilitators and displaced people can rebuild their own future,World Bank vice president Pamela Cox said last month.

Unions vow strike as Greece finalizes deficit plan By Renee Maltezou and Ingrid Melander – FEB 8,10

ATHENS (Reuters) – Greek unions pledged on Monday to fight austerity measures with a public sector strike this week, the first test of the government's commitment to cut deficits and a ballooning public debt which has shaken the euro.Wednesday's planned 24-hour strike comes as Prime Minister George Papandreou puts the finishing touches to details of a deficit-reduction plan, endorsed by the European Commission last week to pull Greece's finances back from the brink.His socialist government has promised to tighten one of Europe's leakiest tax systems and freeze public sector wages in a bid to slash Greece's deficit from 12.7 percent in 2009 to below the EU's 3 percent ceiling by 2012.The emergency tax reform and wages bills are expected to be unveiled this week and become law by the end of the month, but details revealed have angered Greece's powerful unions.We are fighting so that the working people don't get to pay for the crisis, public sector union ADEDY said in a statement ahead of a news conference to outline their demands. "We demand a pay increase ... a fair tax system.Finance Minister George Papaconstantinou, who took part in an impromptu cabinet meeting on Monday, said the raft of wage cuts and revenue reforms would involve lowering the top tax rate, as the government seeks to shield the poorest Greeks.The 40 percent tax rate will be applied on income levels that are lower than what is the case today, but there will also be intermediate rates that will provide relief for low and middle incomes,he told Ta Nea newspaper.He said that as a result of the tax changes, the biggest burden would be felt by a small percentage of tax payers as 95 percent of earners report incomes below 30,000 euros a year.Worries over Greece's fiscal woes have battered its bond and stock markets, driving its borrowing costs sharply higher and helping to drive the euro currency to 8-1/2 month lows against the dollar.

The government's response to this week's strike will be closely watched by international markets, keen to see whether Greece can contain a fiscal crisis that has already spread to euro zone periphery countries, Portugal and Spain.We are making a huge effort to protect our economy from speculation and a lack of credibility, which have led to adverse borrowing terms,Papaconstantinou told the paper.European ministers told their counterparts at a Group of Seven meeting on Saturday in northern Canada that they would make sure Greece sticks to its budget-cutting plan, but the pledges failed to reassure currency markets and the euro lost more ground on Monday.(Writing by George Georgiopoulos and Daniel Flynn; Editing by Andy Bruce)

Greece readies tax change to fight crisis
FEB 8,10

ATHENS, Greece – Greek officials put the final touches Monday on an overhaul of the country's ineffective tax system — part of their urgent effort to fix a debt crisis that has shaken the entire eurozone.The center-left government, elected in October, has pledged to fight endemic tax evasion and increase taxes on the rich, as well as taxes on fuel, cigarettes and alcohol.Finance Minister George Papaconstantinou says a new tax bill to be presented this week will expand the top 40 percent tax bracket to incomes below the current euro75,000 ($102,000) threshold. In an interview in Ta Nea newspaper, Papaconstantinou also insisted that middle- and low-income earners would pay less tax.Greece's budget deficit reached 12.7 percent of annual economic output last year — four times over the EU limit — while the national debt was more than 113 percent of GDP. This alarmed Greece's European Union partners and international markets, forcing a spike in borrowing costs for Greece and other weak European economies and pushing down the euro exchange rate.The Greek crisis highlights one of the vulnerabilities of the euro currency. It has one central bank, the European Central Bank, to set interest rates, but no central fiscal authority. Instead, the monetary union depends on all 16 governments following rules to keep their deficits within a limit of 3 percent of gross domestic product each year — and those limits have been widely breached during the world economic turbulence of the last three years.

EU officials have put intense pressure on Greek to get back within the deficit limits. The government says it will do so by 2012, but markets remain skeptical that it can force through such extreme cuts, which could be highly unpopular.A newspaper poll Sunday found that most Greeks back Prime Minister George Papandreou's plans to freeze civil servants' wages and cut their bonuses. But the majority of respondents also opposed a hike in the fuel tax and the introduction of new taxes.

EU approves Swedish guarantee for loan to Saab
FEB 8,10

BRUSSELS (AFP) – The EU's competition watchdog on Monday approved Swedish plans to act as guarantor for an European Investment Bank (EIB) to automaker Saab.The European Commission ruled that 83 percent of the 400-million-euro (600-million-dollar) loan was in line with temporary EU rules on state aid measures, drawn up to help companies through the economic and financial crisis.The remaining 17 percent will be provided on market conditions and therefore does not constitute state aid, the commission stated.The state guarantee will contribute to the implementation of Saab's business plan without giving rise to any undue distortions of competition, said EU Competition Commissioner Neelie Kroes.In particular, Saab will pay an adequate remuneration for the guarantee and provide sufficient securities in case the guarantee would be drawn.Sweden announced last month that it will guarantee the loan following a decision by US automaker General Motors to sell Saab to Dutch luxury sports car maker Spyker.

As part of the agreement, Spyker will form a new company, Saab Spyker Automobiles, that will carry the Saab nameplate forward.GM officials said the deal called for Spyker to pay 74 million dollars in cash and allow GM to retain redeemable preferred shares worth an estimated 326 million dollars.The Swedish loan is to help Saab produce less polluting and more eco-friendly cars.

Oil above $72 amid US cold snap, Iran tensions By CHUN HAN WONG, Associated Press Writer – FEB 8,10

SINGAPORE – Oil prices jumped above $72 a barrel Monday in Asia after hitting a two-month low last week, boosted by tensions over Iran's nuclear program and a cold snap in the U.S. northeast.Benchmark crude for March delivery was up 87 cents at $72.06 a barrel at late afternoon Singapore time in electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange. The contract plunged $1.95 to settle at $71.19 on Friday.Oil prices fell sharply late last week as concerns over swelling debt levels in Greece, Portugal and Spain and high unemployment in the U.S. cast doubt over the global economic recovery.Helping crude rebound Monday were expectations of a spurt in demand for crude products like heating oil because of a cold spell in the U.S. and tensions in the Middle East.Iran's president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad ordered Sunday his atomic agency to significantly enrich the country's stockpile of uranium, defying pressure from Western nations to halt its nuclear program.This is winter's last hurrah, while Iran's announcement also gives an excuse for investors to buy, said Victor Shum, an energy analyst with consultancy Purvin & Gertz in Singapore.In other Nymex trading in March contracts, heating oil rose 2.32 cents to $1.898 a gallon, and gasoline was up 1.51 cent at $1.9015 a gallon. Natural gas rose 9.7 cents to $5.61 per 1,000 cubic feet.In London, Brent crude was up 83 cents at $70.42 on the ICE futures exchange.

NKorea threatens South amid push to restart talks By HYUNG-JIN KIM, Associated Press Writer – FEB 8,10

SEOUL, South Korea – North Korea warned South Korea that any attempt to bring down the communist country would draw strong measures from its military, a threat issued Monday even as Pyongyang embarked on a flurry of diplomacy with Seoul, Washington and Beijing.Pyongyang is poised to mobilize troops to defend itself, including a world-level ultramodern striking force that has not yet been publicly revealed, North Korea's Ministry of People's Security and the Ministry of State Security said in a statement.North Korea will take all-out strong measures to foil the treacherous, anti-reunification and anti-peace moves of the riff-raffs to bring down the dignified socialist system ... and destabilize it, said the statement carried by the official Korean Central News Agency.The warning, stern but milder than threats made last year, was carefully timed to show tensions could flare if North Korea doesn't get what it wants from the round of diplomacy, said Jeung Young-tae, a North Korea expert at the state-run Korea Institute of National Unification in Seoul.

They are using it as a negotiating card,he said.The threat was issued as senior Chinese envoy Wang Jiarui met in Pyongyang with Choe Thae Bok, a high-level official in North Korea's ruling Workers' Party, amid an international push to persuade North Korea to return to stalled nuclear disarmament talks.Footage broadcast by APTN in Pyongyang showed Wang visiting a modern new apartment and touring a fruit farm.Wang told Choe that China, North Korea's longtime ally and benefactor, was ready to work with North Korea to boost bilateral ties, according to the Xinhua News Agency. The report did not mention the nuclear issue.The envoy was expected to meet with North Korean leader Kim Jong Il later Monday to discuss the nuclear talks, South Korean cable network YTN said, without citing its source. Wang will likely bring Kim a letter from Chinese President Hu Jintao, the Chosun Ilbo newspaper said in a similar report.Meanwhile, U.N. political chief B. Lynn Pascoe was due in Pyongyang on Tuesday, reportedly bearing a letter from U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon of South Korea. Pascoe's trip will be the first by a high-level U.N. official since 2004, according to Seoul's Foreign Ministry.Pascoe will urge North Korea to rejoin the nuclear talks, and discuss the country's relationship with the world body, a U.N. official in New York said on condition of anonymity, citing policy.North Korea walked away from the disarmament talks last year in anger over international condemnation of a long-range rocket launch. The regime later conducted a nuclear test, test-launched ballistic missiles and restarted its plutonium-producing facility, inviting widespread condemnation and tighter U.N. sanctions.North Korea has reached out to the international community in recent months — an about-face that analysts say shows the regime is feeling pinched by sanctions. However, North Korea has made clear it wants sanctions lifted and a peace treaty to formally end the 1950-1953 Korean War before returning to the disarmament talks.

Pyongyang on Saturday released an American missionary detained since Christmas for illegal entry, and on Monday officials from the two Koreas met in a North Korean border town to discuss restarting joint tours suspended in 2008.Monday's warning — citing South Korea's reported contingency plan for unrest in the North, propaganda leaflets critical of Pyongyang's communist system and military movements along the Koreas' disputed western sea border — shows security remains fragile even as relations improve, Jeung said.

Iran launches production lines for unmanned planes By NASSER KARIMI, Associated Press Writer – FEB 8,10

TEHRAN, Iran – Iran has launched two production lines to build unmanned aircraft with surveillance and attack capabilities, the defense minister announced Monday.It also announced that Iran would soon deploy a missile air defense system more powerful than the advanced Russian S-300 system Tehran has ordered from Moscow in 2007 but has yet to receive.The state television quoted Defense Minister Gen. Ahmad Vahidi as saying the unmanned aircraft would be able to carry out surveillance as well as offensive tasks with high precision and a long range.The two types of aircraft, or drones, are named Ra'd (thunder) and Nazir (herald), with the former possessing offensive capabilities.Iran announced two years ago it had built an unmanned aircraft, but details were only revealed last year when Vahidi said it has a range of more than 600 miles (1,000 kilometers), long enough to reach Israel. It was not clear whether Ra'd or Nazir has such a range.Iran frequently makes announcements about the strides being made by its military industries, however, it is virtually impossible to independently determine the actual capabilities or combat worthiness of the weapons Iran is producing.

Iran began a military self-sufficiency program in 1992, under which it produces a large range of weapons, including tanks, medium range missiles, jet fighters and torpedoes.Meanwhile, a senior air force commander, Gen. Heshmatollah Kasiri, told the official IRNA news agency Monday that Iran would soon deploy an air defense system with capabilities matching, or superior to, those of the Russian S-300 system.

He did not elaborate, but the S-300 missiles are capable of shooting down aircraft, cruise missiles and ballistic missile warheads at ranges of over 90 miles (145 kilometers) and at altitudes of about 90,000 feet.Gen. Kasiri said Iran produces its entire air defense needs domestically, but still criticized Russia for not delivering the S-300 missiles for unacceptable reasons.Russia signed a 2007 contract to sell the S-300 missile system to Iran, but they have not been delivered yet. The delay has not been explained, but Israel and the United States have strongly objected to the deal.The S-300 missiles would significantly boost Iran's air defense capability at a time when Israel says it will not rule out taking military action against Iran's nuclear sites. Israel and the West believe that Iran's nuclear program is geared toward acquiring nuclear weapons. Iran denies the charge.

Iran leader orders new step in nuclear program By NASSER KARIMI, Associated Press Writer – Sun Feb 7, 1:47 pm ET

TEHRAN, Iran – Iran's president on Sunday ordered his atomic agency to significantly enrich the country's stockpile of uranium, angering Western nations who want to the Islamic republic to halt its nuclear program.Mahmoud Ahmadinejad maintained, however, that Iran was also still willing to follow a U.N. plan to export its uranium abroad for further enrichment. Refining uranium produces nuclear fuel for a power plant but if carried out far enough can create material for a weapon.The mixed messages from Tehran have infuriated the U.S. and its European allies, who claim Iran is only stalling for time as it attempts to build a nuclear weapon. U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates called for the international community to pressure Iran into abandoning its nuclear program.German Defense Minister Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg said: Today's statement shows that farce is being played out just like we have seen in the past, that the outstretched hand of the international community has not only not been taken but pushed back.The U.N.'s nuclear watchdog has been working on a compromise to defuse international tensions over Iran's nuclear program. In October, the U.N. proposed that Tehran export its low-enriched uranium to Russia and France, who would return it a year later as enriched fuel rods that could be used to power Iran's research reactor but couldn't be further refined to make weapons-grade material.By announcing that Iran would enrich the fuel on its own, Ahmadinejad appeared to reject the U.N. International Atomic Energy Agency's deal — even though he had seemed to endorse it just days earlier.

Iran wants to enrich its stockpile of uranium to 20 percent, up from 3.5 percent, to power a research reactor to produce medical isotopes. But the international community has demanded a halt to all enrichment activity because the same process is used to produce weapons-grade material.While material for a nuclear weapon is enriched to a level of 90 percent, just getting its stockpile to the 20 percent mark is a major step for the country's nuclear program.Achieving that level would be going most of the rest of the way to weapon-grade uranium, said David Albright, whose Washington-based Institute for Science and International Security tracks suspected proliferators.Speaking on state television, Ahmadinejad said God willing, 20 percent enrichment will start. He then turned to the head of Iran's atomic energy agency, Ali Akbar Salehi, and said: Begin production of 20 percent (enriched uranium).At the same time, Iran's president said he had not closed the door to the IAEA's exchange option. We are still ready for a swap deal.Salehi later appeared on state TV and said that a letter would be sent to the IAEA saying that Iran will start enriching its uranium to 20 percent on Tuesday.

Ahmadinejad also said Iran has acquired laser technology for enrichment of uranium, but added, For now, we do not intend to use it.The United States and its Western allies have been pushing for a fourth round of U.N. sanctions to be slapped on Iran over its disputed nuclear program. But with Russia, and especially China, skeptical of any new U.N. penalties, they have to tread carefully to maintain unity on how to deal with the Islamic Republic.Speaking to reporters during a weeklong European tour, Gates said that if the international community will stand together and bring pressure on Iran,I believe there is still time for sanctions to work.Gates declined to be specific about the type of sanctions he had in mind, but explained that the focus should be on putting pressure on the government in Tehran and not hurting the people.The rest of the world has really begun to see Iran the way we see it, U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton said in an interview broadcast Sunday on CNN's State of the Union.Associated Press writers Anne Flaherty in Rome and George Jahn in Vienna contributed to this report.

Iran anniversary will be punch to West: Khamenei
FEB 8,10

TEHRAN (AFP) – Iran's all powerful supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said on Monday that the 31st anniversary of the Islamic revolution would be a punch to the world's arrogant powers that would stun them.The Iranian nation, with its unity and God's grace, will punch the arrogance (Western powers) on the 22nd of Bahman (February 11) in a way that will leave them stunned, Khamenei, who is also Iran's commander-in-chief, told a gathering of air force personnel.The country's top cleric was delivering a speech to mark the occasion when 31 years ago the Iranian airforce gave its support to the revolutionary leader Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, a key event which led to the toppling of the US-backed shah on February 11, 1979.This year's anniversary is expected to become a flashpoint between security forces and supporters of opposition leaders Mir Hossein Mousavi and Mehdi Karroubi, who have triggered one of the worst crises facing the Islamic republic since it was founded.

Opposition supporters are expected to stage anti-government protests on Thursday when the traditional regime-sponsored marches to mark the revolution take place across the country.The protests were first triggered after the June 12 presidential election which saw incumbent Mahmoud Ahmadinejad return to power in what the opposition claims was a fraudulent poll.Khamenei told the airforce personnel that the most important aim of the sedition after the election was to create a rift within the Iranian nation, but it was unable to do so and our nation's unity remained a thorn in its eyes.

Hamas leader holds talks in Moscow
FEB 8,10

MOSCOW (AFP) – The leader of Palestinian Islamist group Hamas met here Monday with Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov for talks on efforts to reunify the two main Palestinian independence movements.We met to pursue our discussions, and our principal goal is to build on efforts brokered by Egypt to secure Palestinian unity, Lavrov told reporters at the start of talks with Hamas political leader Khaled Meshaal.Meshaal, who lives in exile in Damascus, praised Russia for seeking a reconciliation between Hamas, which controls the Gaza Strip, and the rival Fatah movement of Palestinian Authority President Mahmud Abbas.Hamas seized power in Gaza in June 2007 after a week of vicious street battles with Fatah loyalists.Since then, the two main Palestinian movements have been deeply divided, confining Abbas' authority to the occupied West Bank and cleaving the Palestinians into hostile rival camps.

In a newspaper interview published Monday, Meshaal accused the United States of attempting to sabotage reconciliation efforts.We know that the US special envoy to the Middle East, George Mitchell, has recently put pressure on Mahmud Abbas and Egyptian officials, he told Russian daily Vremya Novostei.If Abbas reconciles with us than the United States will halt aid to the Palestinian administration.Russia wants unity in the Palestinian ranks -- the Americans don't care about this, he told the paper.Hamas is classified as a terrorist organisation by the United States and the EU, but Russia has maintained official ties with the movement since it won elections and took power in Gaza in 2005.Meshaal has visited Moscow on two previous occasions, in March 2006 and February 2007. He was scheduled to hold a news conference at 1300 GMT.

Syria would back Lebanon if Israel attacks: Assad
Sun Feb 7, 11:36 am ET

DAMASCUS (AFP) – Syria will support Lebanon in the event of any attack from Israel, President Bashar al-Assad told the speaker of Beirut's parliament on on Sunday, the official SANA news agency reported.Syria will stand alongside the government and people of Lebanon against any possible Israeli aggression launched on Lebanon, the agency quoted Assad as saying to Nabih Berri in Damascus.Assad and Berri discussed repeated Israeli threats on countries in the region and Israeli extremism which can kill chances for peace and bring war to the region, SANA said.Israeli officials have warned repeatedly in recent weeks that any attack by Lebanon's Syrian-backed Hezbollah Shiite movement will spark a tough response.Syria and Israel have also been locked in a bitter war of words for several days.Foreign Minister Walid Muallem warned on Wednesday that war against his country would become a wider conflict. Israelis, do not test the power of Syria since you know the war will move into your cities, he said.His Israeli counterpart Avigdor Lieberman retorted on Thursday that any war would cost Assad his grip on power. When there is another war, you will not just lose it, but you and your family will lose power, Lieberman said.Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu sought to ease tensions on Sunday, saying that Israel wants peace with all of its neighbours.We made peace with Egypt and Jordan and we seek peace with Syria and the Palestinians, he said.On Tuesday Netanyahu had accused Beirut of allowing Hezbollah to smuggle weapons into Lebanon in blatant violation of (United Nations Security Council) Resolution 1701 which led to an end to the 34-day conflict.Israel and Hezbollah fought a devastating war in 2006, which killed more than 1,200 Lebanese, most of them civilians, and more than 160 Israelis, mostly soldiers.

France agrees to sell Russia advanced warship By JAMEY KEATEN, Associated Press Writer – FEB 8,10

PARIS – France has agreed to sell Russia an advanced amphibious warship and is considering a Russian request for three more, French defense officials said Monday. It would be the first major arms deal between Russia and a NATO member.French President Nicolas Sarkozy approved the sale of one Mistral assault ship after months of discussions, but then Russian naval officials submitted a request for three more, said Jacques de Lajugie, head of international development at the French arms agency DGA.We are in the process of examining this new request, de Lajugie said at a news conference, predicting a decision in the coming weeks. He said the new request came not at the political level but from the general staff of the Russian Navy.Among outstanding questions in the deal are where the Mistral would be built, de Lajugie said. No details about price were released.Possessing a Mistral, which can carry 16 helicopters, would significantly increase the Russian military's capability to mount quick offensives. France sent a Mistral, which weighs 23,700 tons (21,500 metric tons) and is 980 feet (299 meters) long, to visit St. Petersburg last year in a clear sign of interest in a potential sale.NATO members and Russia have had some small, country-to-country technology deals in the past but this would be the first sale of a major piece of equipment by a NATO nation to Moscow.

The prospect of the deal has alarmed some ex-Soviet countries.I believe that it's not a good idea to sell such ship to a country that has occupied another nation's territory, Temur Yakobashvili, a Georgian cabinet minister for reintegration who is in charge of issues related to separatist regions, told The Associated Press in a telephone interview after the French announcement.The Mistral can anchor in coastal waters and deploy troops on land, a capacity the Russian navy now lacks. Russia's navy chief said last year that a ship like the Mistral would have allowed the Russian navy to mount a much more efficient action in the Black Sea during the Georgia-Russia war. He said the French ship would take just 40 minutes to do the job that the Russian Black Sea Fleet vessels did in 26 hours.Russia's Interfax news agency had quoted naval first deputy chief of staff Vice Adm. Oleg Burtsev as saying the deal is unlikely to happen in February or March this year, but work on the matter is continuing.President Dmitry Medvedev visits France in March. Russia has been looking at similar ships made in Spain and the Netherlands.Associated Press writer Misha Dzhindzhikhashvili in Tbilisi, Georgia, contributed to this report.

NATO: Russia need not fear expansion
Sun Feb 7, 6:02 am ET

MUNICH – The head of the panel crafting a new mission statement for NATO says Russia has no reason to fear the alliance's eastward expansion.Former U.S. Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, who was tasked last year to lead the panel drafting a new mission statement, told a gathering of defense officials Sunday Russia has nothing to fear from NATO.She says NATO was an alliance against the Soviet Union, now the Soviet Union does not exist. NATO is a new alliance, it is not against Russia, it is an alliance that welcomes countries that want to join it.Russia's relations with NATO have been tense for years over the alliance's eastward expansion and the ambitions of Ukraine and Georgia to join.NATO's current mission statement was written in 1999.

BEIJING (AFP) – China is hunting for nearly 100 tonnes of tainted milk powder that was supposed to have been destroyed after a 2008 scandal over the deaths of six babies, state media said on Monday.Dairy products containing the industrial chemical melamine have been turning up again in stores in China, more than a year after the authorities had declared the threat from tainted milk over.Two dairy firms in the northern Ningxia region were closed down Saturday for selling contaminated milk powder, and candies made with powder were found in the northeastern province of Jilin, the China Daily said.Melamine is used in the manufacture of plastics, fertilisers and adhesives and can cause kidney stones and other urinary problems if ingested.Police in Ningxia found that a company outside the region gave one of the dairy firms around 170 tonnes of tainted milk powder left over from the 2008 scandal as debt payment in July last year, the report said.The firm involved -- the Ningxia Tiantian Dairy company -- then repackaged nearly all of the powder and sold it to five factories in northern and southern China, the report added.Only 72 tonnes of powder have been recovered and authorities are tracking down the rest.It was unclear whether the dairy firm knew the product was contaminated.As a small company, the Tiantian dairy company doesn't have a machine to test melamine, Zhao Shunming, secretary general of the Ningxia Dairy Industry Association, was quoted as saying.

Such a machine can cost up to one million yuan (about 145,000 dollars)... But their repacking of the products is illegal, he added.The Ministry of Health, the State Food and Drug Administration, and China's food safety watchdog all declined immediate comment when contacted by AFP.A string of reports have said leftover milk powder had resurfaced and was being distributed more widely than thought, raising new doubts about China's food safety monitoring systems.At least six babies died and another 300,000 fell ill in 2008 after consuming dairy products with melamine, which the authorities said was added to give the appearance of a higher protein content.

The scandal prompted China to order a massive recall of milk powder, hitting many dairy firms that had bought products they thought were safe.A total of 21 people have reportedly been convicted over the 2008 scare. Two have been executed and others given jail sentences ranging from two years to life.Wang Huaibao, former deputy head of the Dairy Association of China, said the re-emergence of the problem pointed to lax government oversight and the desperation of milk firms caught up in the scandal.It has already been a year and a half since the melamine incident, showing that the safety consciousness of government agencies remains lacking, Wang told AFP.The government has dispatched inspectors to 16 provinces to check if tainted products have slipped on to the market, state media reported last month.

Police have arrested at least three people in the new crackdown. Flaws in the previous system led to the current chaos, Zhao was quoted saying. What if companies with tainted milk also hold back their stocks for this round of checkups and re-use them later, just like what's happening now?

TORAH PORTION FROM FEB 07 2010 6PM - FEB 13 6PM 2010

EXODUS 21:1 - 24:18
1 Now these are the judgments which thou shalt set before them.
2 If thou buy an Hebrew servant, six years he shall serve: and in the seventh he shall go out free for nothing.
3 If he came in by himself, he shall go out by himself: if he were married, then his wife shall go out with him.
4 If his master have given him a wife, and she have born him sons or daughters; the wife and her children shall be her master's, and he shall go out by himself.
5 And if the servant shall plainly say, I love my master, my wife, and my children; I will not go out free:
6 Then his master shall bring him unto the judges; he shall also bring him to the door, or unto the door post; and his master shall bore his ear through with an aul; and he shall serve him for ever.
7 And if a man sell his daughter to be a maidservant, she shall not go out as the menservants do.
8 If she please not her master, who hath betrothed her to himself, then shall he let her be redeemed: to sell her unto a strange nation he shall have no power, seeing he hath dealt deceitfully with her.
9 And if he have betrothed her unto his son, he shall deal with her after the manner of daughters.
10 If he take him another wife; her food, her raiment, and her duty of marriage, shall he not diminish.
11 And if he do not these three unto her, then shall she go out free without money.
12 He that smiteth a man, so that he die, shall be surely put to death.
13 And if a man lie not in wait, but God deliver him into his hand; then I will appoint thee a place whither he shall flee.
14 But if a man come presumptuously upon his neighbour, to slay him with guile; thou shalt take him from mine altar, that he may die.
15 And he that smiteth his father, or his mother, shall be surely put to death.
16 And he that stealeth a man, and selleth him, or if he be found in his hand, he shall surely be put to death.
17 And he that curseth his father, or his mother, shall surely be put to death.
18 And if men strive together, and one smite another with a stone, or with his fist, and he die not, but keepeth his bed:
19 If he rise again, and walk abroad upon his staff, then shall he that smote him be quit: only he shall pay for the loss of his time, and shall cause him to be thoroughly healed.
20 And if a man smite his servant, or his maid, with a rod, and he die under his hand; he shall be surely punished.
21 Notwithstanding, if he continue a day or two, he shall not be punished: for he is his money.
22 If men strive, and hurt a woman with child, so that her fruit depart from her, and yet no mischief follow: he shall be surely punished, according as the woman's husband will lay upon him; and he shall pay as the judges determine.
23 And if any mischief follow, then thou shalt give life for life,
24 Eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot,
25 Burning for burning, wound for wound, stripe for stripe.
26 And if a man smite the eye of his servant, or the eye of his maid, that it perish; he shall let him go free for his eye's sake.
27 And if he smite out his manservant's tooth, or his maidservant's tooth; he shall let him go free for his tooth's sake.
28 If an ox gore a man or a woman, that they die: then the ox shall be surely stoned, and his flesh shall not be eaten; but the owner of the ox shall be quit.
29 But if the ox were wont to push with his horn in time past, and it hath been testified to his owner, and he hath not kept him in, but that he hath killed a man or a woman; the ox shall be stoned, and his owner also shall be put to death.
30 If there be laid on him a sum of money, then he shall give for the ransom of his life whatsoever is laid upon him.
31 Whether he have gored a son, or have gored a daughter, according to this judgment shall it be done unto him.
32 If the ox shall push a manservant or a maidservant; he shall give unto their master thirty shekels of silver, and the ox shall be stoned.
33 And if a man shall open a pit, or if a man shall dig a pit, and not cover it, and an ox or an ass fall therein;
34 The owner of the pit shall make it good, and give money unto the owner of them; and the dead beast shall be his.
35 And if one man's ox hurt another's, that he die; then they shall sell the live ox, and divide the money of it; and the dead ox also they shall divide.
36 Or if it be known that the ox hath used to push in time past, and his owner hath not kept him in; he shall surely pay ox for ox; and the dead shall be his own.

EXODUS 22:1-31
1 If a man shall steal an ox, or a sheep, and kill it, or sell it; he shall restore five oxen for an ox, and four sheep for a sheep.
2 If a thief be found breaking up, and be smitten that he die, there shall no blood be shed for him.
3 If the sun be risen upon him, there shall be blood shed for him; for he should make full restitution; if he have nothing, then he shall be sold for his theft.
4 If the theft be certainly found in his hand alive, whether it be ox, or ass, or sheep; he shall restore double.
5 If a man shall cause a field or vineyard to be eaten, and shall put in his beast, and shall feed in another man's field; of the best of his own field, and of the best of his own vineyard, shall he make restitution.
6 If fire break out, and catch in thorns, so that the stacks of corn, or the standing corn, or the field, be consumed therewith; he that kindled the fire shall surely make restitution.
7 If a man shall deliver unto his neighbour money or stuff to keep, and it be stolen out of the man's house; if the thief be found, let him pay double.
8 If the thief be not found, then the master of the house shall be brought unto the judges, to see whether he have put his hand unto his neighbour's goods.
9 For all manner of trespass, whether it be for ox, for ass, for sheep, for raiment, or for any manner of lost thing, which another challengeth to be his, the cause of both parties shall come before the judges; and whom the judges shall condemn, he shall pay double unto his neighbour.
10 If a man deliver unto his neighbour an ass, or an ox, or a sheep, or any beast, to keep; and it die, or be hurt, or driven away, no man seeing it:
11 Then shall an oath of the LORD be between them both, that he hath not put his hand unto his neighbour's goods; and the owner of it shall accept thereof, and he shall not make it good.
12 And if it be stolen from him, he shall make restitution unto the owner thereof.
13 If it be torn in pieces, then let him bring it for witness, and he shall not make good that which was torn.
14 And if a man borrow ought of his neighbour, and it be hurt, or die, the owner thereof being not with it, he shall surely make it good.
15 But if the owner thereof be with it, he shall not make it good: if it be an hired thing, it came for his hire.
16 And if a man entice a maid that is not betrothed, and lie with her, he shall surely endow her to be his wife.
17 If her father utterly refuse to give her unto him, he shall pay money according to the dowry of virgins.
18 Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live.
19 Whosoever lieth with a beast shall surely be put to death.
20 He that sacrificeth unto any god, save unto the LORD only, he shall be utterly destroyed.
21 Thou shalt neither vex a stranger, nor oppress him: for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt.
22 Ye shall not afflict any widow, or fatherless child.
23 If thou afflict them in any wise, and they cry at all unto me, I will surely hear their cry;
24 And my wrath shall wax hot, and I will kill you with the sword; and your wives shall be widows, and your children fatherless.
25 If thou lend money to any of my people that is poor by thee, thou shalt not be to him as an usurer, neither shalt thou lay upon him usury.
26 If thou at all take thy neighbour's raiment to pledge, thou shalt deliver it unto him by that the sun goeth down:
27 For that is his covering only, it is his raiment for his skin: wherein shall he sleep? and it shall come to pass, when he crieth unto me, that I will hear; for I am gracious.
28 Thou shalt not revile the gods, nor curse the ruler of thy people.
29 Thou shalt not delay to offer the first of thy ripe fruits, and of thy liquors: the firstborn of thy sons shalt thou give unto me.
30 Likewise shalt thou do with thine oxen, and with thy sheep: seven days it shall be with his dam; on the eighth day thou shalt give it me.
31 And ye shall be holy men unto me: neither shall ye eat any flesh that is torn of beasts in the field; ye shall cast it to the dogs.

EXODUS 23:1-33
1 Thou shalt not raise a false report: put not thine hand with the wicked to be an unrighteous witness.
2 Thou shalt not follow a multitude to do evil; neither shalt thou speak in a cause to decline after many to wrest judgment:
3 Neither shalt thou countenance a poor man in his cause.
4 If thou meet thine enemy's ox or his ass going astray, thou shalt surely bring it back to him again.
5 If thou see the ass of him that hateth thee lying under his burden, and wouldest forbear to help him, thou shalt surely help with him.
6 Thou shalt not wrest the judgment of thy poor in his cause.
7 Keep thee far from a false matter; and the innocent and righteous slay thou not: for I will not justify the wicked.
8 And thou shalt take no gift: for the gift blindeth the wise, and perverteth the words of the righteous.
9 Also thou shalt not oppress a stranger: for ye know the heart of a stranger, seeing ye were strangers in the land of Egypt.
10 And six years thou shalt sow thy land, and shalt gather in the fruits thereof:
11 But the seventh year thou shalt let it rest and lie still; that the poor of thy people may eat: and what they leave the beasts of the field shall eat. In like manner thou shalt deal with thy vineyard, and with thy oliveyard.
12 Six days thou shalt do thy work, and on the seventh day thou shalt rest: that thine ox and thine ass may rest, and the son of thy handmaid, and the stranger, may be refreshed.
13 And in all things that I have said unto you be circumspect: and make no mention of the name of other gods, neither let it be heard out of thy mouth.
14 Three times thou shalt keep a feast unto me in the year.
15 Thou shalt keep the feast of unleavened bread: (thou shalt eat unleavened bread seven days, as I commanded thee, in the time appointed of the month Abib; for in it thou camest out from Egypt: and none shall appear before me empty:)
16 And the feast of harvest, the firstfruits of thy labours, which thou hast sown in the field: and the feast of ingathering, which is in the end of the year, when thou hast gathered in thy labours out of the field.
17 Three times in the year all thy males shall appear before the Lord GOD.
18 Thou shalt not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leavened bread; neither shall the fat of my sacrifice remain until the morning.
19 The first of the firstfruits of thy land thou shalt bring into the house of the LORD thy God. Thou shalt not seethe a kid in his mother's milk.
20 Behold, I send an Angel before thee, to keep thee in the way, and to bring thee into the place which I have prepared.
21 Beware of him, and obey his voice, provoke him not; for he will not pardon your transgressions: for my name is in him.
22 But if thou shalt indeed obey his voice, and do all that I speak; then I will be an enemy unto thine enemies, and an adversary unto thine adversaries.
23 For mine Angel shall go before thee, and bring thee in unto the Amorites, and the Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Canaanites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites: and I will cut them off.
24 Thou shalt not bow down to their gods, nor serve them, nor do after their works: but thou shalt utterly overthrow them, and quite break down their images.
25 And ye shall serve the LORD your God, and he shall bless thy bread, and thy water; and I will take sickness away from the midst of thee.
26 There shall nothing cast their young, nor be barren, in thy land: the number of thy days I will fulfil.
27 I will send my fear before thee, and will destroy all the people to whom thou shalt come, and I will make all thine enemies turn their backs unto thee.
28 And I will send hornets before thee, which shall drive out the Hivite, the Canaanite, and the Hittite, from before thee.
29 I will not drive them out from before thee in one year; lest the land become desolate, and the beast of the field multiply against thee.
30 By little and little I will drive them out from before thee, until thou be increased, and inherit the land.
31 And I will set thy bounds from the Red sea even unto the sea of the Philistines, and from the desert unto the river: for I will deliver the inhabitants of the land into your hand; and thou shalt drive them out before thee.
32 Thou shalt make no covenant with them, nor with their gods.
33 They shall not dwell in thy land, lest they make thee sin against me: for if thou serve their gods, it will surely be a snare unto thee.

EXODUS 24:1-18
1 And he said unto Moses, Come up unto the LORD, thou, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel; and worship ye afar off.
2 And Moses alone shall come near the LORD: but they shall not come nigh; neither shall the people go up with him.
3 And Moses came and told the people all the words of the LORD, and all the judgments: and all the people answered with one voice, and said, All the words which the LORD hath said will we do.
4 And Moses wrote all the words of the LORD, and rose up early in the morning, and builded an altar under the hill, and twelve pillars, according to the twelve tribes of Israel.
5 And he sent young men of the children of Israel, which offered burnt offerings, and sacrificed peace offerings of oxen unto the LORD.
6 And Moses took half of the blood, and put it in basons; and half of the blood he sprinkled on the altar.
7 And he took the book of the covenant, and read in the audience of the people: and they said, All that the LORD hath said will we do, and be obedient.
8 And Moses took the blood, and sprinkled it on the people, and said, Behold the blood of the covenant, which the LORD hath made with you concerning all these words.
9 Then went up Moses, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel:
10 And they saw the God of Israel: and there was under his feet as it were a paved work of a sapphire stone, and as it were the body of heaven in his clearness.
11 And upon the nobles of the children of Israel he laid not his hand: also they saw God, and did eat and drink.
12 And the LORD said unto Moses, Come up to me into the mount, and be there: and I will give thee tables of stone, and a law, and commandments which I have written; that thou mayest teach them.
13 And Moses rose up, and his minister Joshua: and Moses went up into the mount of God.
14 And he said unto the elders, Tarry ye here for us, until we come again unto you: and, behold, Aaron and Hur are with you: if any man have any matters to do, let him come unto them.
15 And Moses went up into the mount, and a cloud covered the mount.
16 And the glory of the LORD abode upon mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it six days: and the seventh day he called unto Moses out of the midst of the cloud.
17 And the sight of the glory of the LORD was like devouring fire on the top of the mount in the eyes of the children of Israel.
18 And Moses went into the midst of the cloud, and gat him up into the mount: and Moses was in the mount forty days and forty nights.

PROPHETS PORTION

JEREMIAH 33:25-26
25 Thus saith the LORD; If my covenant be not with day and night, and if I have not appointed the ordinances of heaven and earth;
26 Then will I cast away the seed of Jacob, and David my servant, so that I will not take any of his seed to be rulers over the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob: for I will cause their captivity to return, and have mercy on them.

JEREMIAH 34:8-22
8 This is the word that came unto Jeremiah from the LORD, after that the king Zedekiah had made a covenant with all the people which were at Jerusalem, to proclaim liberty unto them;
9 That every man should let his manservant, and every man his maidservant, being an Hebrew or an Hebrewess, go free; that none should serve himself of them, to wit, of a Jew his brother.
10 Now when all the princes, and all the people, which had entered into the covenant, heard that every one should let his manservant, and every one his maidservant, go free, that none should serve themselves of them any more, then they obeyed, and let them go.
11 But afterward they turned, and caused the servants and the handmaids, whom they had let go free, to return, and brought them into subjection for servants and for handmaids.
12 Therefore the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying,
13 Thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel; I made a covenant with your fathers in the day that I brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondmen, saying,
14 At the end of seven years let ye go every man his brother an Hebrew, which hath been sold unto thee; and when he hath served thee six years, thou shalt let him go free from thee: but your fathers hearkened not unto me, neither inclined their ear.
15 And ye were now turned, and had done right in my sight, in proclaiming liberty every man to his neighbour; and ye had made a covenant before me in the house which is called by my name:
16 But ye turned and polluted my name, and caused every man his servant, and every man his handmaid, whom ye had set at liberty at their pleasure, to return, and brought them into subjection, to be unto you for servants and for handmaids.
17 Therefore thus saith the LORD; Ye have not hearkened unto me, in proclaiming liberty, every one to his brother, and every man to his neighbour: behold, I proclaim a liberty for you, saith the LORD, to the sword, to the pestilence, and to the famine; and I will make you to be removed into all the kingdoms of the earth.
18 And I will give the men that have transgressed my covenant, which have not performed the words of the covenant which they had made before me, when they cut the calf in twain, and passed between the parts thereof,
19 The princes of Judah, and the princes of Jerusalem, the eunuchs, and the priests, and all the people of the land, which passed between the parts of the calf;
20 I will even give them into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of them that seek their life: and their dead bodies shall be for meat unto the fowls of the heaven, and to the beasts of the earth.
21 And Zedekiah king of Judah and his princes will I give into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of them that seek their life, and into the hand of the king of Babylon’s army, which are gone up from you.
22 Behold, I will command, saith the LORD, and cause them to return to this city; and they shall fight against it, and take it, and burn it with fire: and I will make the cities of Judah a desolation without an inhabitant.

NEW TESTAMENT PORTION

MATTHEW 5:38-42
38 Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth:
39 But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.
40 And if any man will sue thee at the law, and take away thy coat, let him have thy cloke also.
41 And whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him twain.
42 Give to him that asketh thee, and from him that would borrow of thee turn not thou away.

MATTHEW 15:1-20
1 Then came to Jesus scribes and Pharisees, which were of Jerusalem, saying,
2 Why do thy disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? for they wash not their hands when they eat bread.
3 But he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition?
4 For God commanded, saying, Honour thy father and mother: and, He that curseth father or mother, let him die the death.
5 But ye say, Whosoever shall say to his father or his mother, It is a gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me;
6 And honour not his father or his mother, he shall be free. Thus have ye made the commandment of God of none effect by your tradition.
7 Ye hypocrites, well did Esaias prophesy of you, saying,
8 This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with their lips; but their heart is far from me.
9 But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.
10 And he called the multitude, and said unto them, Hear, and understand:
11 Not that which goeth into the mouth defileth a man; but that which cometh out of the mouth, this defileth a man.
12 Then came his disciples, and said unto him, Knowest thou that the Pharisees were offended, after they heard this saying?
13 But he answered and said, Every plant, which my heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be rooted up.
14 Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch.
15 Then answered Peter and said unto him, Declare unto us this parable.
16 And Jesus said, Are ye also yet without understanding?
17 Do not ye yet understand, that whatsoever entereth in at the mouth goeth into the belly, and is cast out into the draught?
18 But those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart; and they defile the man.
19 For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies:
20 These are the things which defile a man: but to eat with unwashen hands defileth not a man.

MARK 7:1-23
1 Then came together unto him the Pharisees, and certain of the scribes, which came from Jerusalem.
2 And when they saw some of his disciples eat bread with defiled, that is to say, with unwashen, hands, they found fault.
3 For the Pharisees, and all the Jews, except they wash their hands oft, eat not, holding the tradition of the elders.
4 And when they come from the market, except they wash, they eat not. And many other things there be, which they have received to hold, as the washing of cups, and pots, brasen vessels, and of tables.
5 Then the Pharisees and scribes asked him, Why walk not thy disciples according to the tradition of the elders, but eat bread with unwashen hands?
6 He answered and said unto them, Well hath Esaias prophesied of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoureth me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.
7 Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.
8 For laying aside the commandment of God, ye hold the tradition of men, as the washing of pots and cups: and many other such like things ye do.
9 And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition.
10 For Moses said, Honour thy father and thy mother; and, Whoso curseth father or mother, let him die the death:
11 But ye say, If a man shall say to his father or mother, It is Corban, that is to say, a gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me; he shall be free.
12 And ye suffer him no more to do ought for his father or his mother;
13 Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things do ye.
14 And when he had called all the people unto him, he said unto them, Hearken unto me every one of you, and understand:
15 There is nothing from without a man, that entering into him can defile him: but the things which come out of him, those are they that defile the man.
16 If any man have ears to hear, let him hear.
17 And when he was entered into the house from the people, his disciples asked him concerning the parable.
18 And he saith unto them, Are ye so without understanding also? Do ye not perceive, that whatsoever thing from without entereth into the man, it cannot defile him;
19 Because it entereth not into his heart, but into the belly, and goeth out into the draught, purging all meats?
20 And he said, That which cometh out of the man, that defileth the man.
21 For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,
22 Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness:
23 All these evil things come from within, and defile the man.

ACTS 23:1-11
1 And Paul, earnestly beholding the council, said, Men and brethren, I have lived in all good conscience before God until this day.
2 And the high priest Ananias commanded them that stood by him to smite him on the mouth.
3 Then said Paul unto him, God shall smite thee, thou whited wall: for sittest thou to judge me after the law, and commandest me to be smitten contrary to the law?
4 And they that stood by said, Revilest thou God’s high priest?
5 Then said Paul, I wist not, brethren, that he was the high priest: for it is written, Thou shalt not speak evil of the ruler of thy people.
6 But when Paul perceived that the one part were Sadducees, and the other Pharisees, he cried out in the council, Men and brethren, I am a Pharisee, the son of a Pharisee: of the hope and resurrection of the dead I am called in question.
7 And when he had so said, there arose a dissension between the Pharisees and the Sadducees: and the multitude was divided.
8 For the Sadducees say that there is no resurrection, neither angel, nor spirit: but the Pharisees confess both.
9 And there arose a great cry: and the scribes that were of the Pharisees’ part arose, and strove, saying, We find no evil in this man: but if a spirit or an angel hath spoken to him, let us not fight against God.
10 And when there arose a great dissension, the chief captain, fearing lest Paul should have been pulled in pieces of them, commanded the soldiers to go down, and to take him by force from among them, and to bring him into the castle.
11 And the night following the Lord stood by him, and said, Be of good cheer, Paul: for as thou hast testified of me in Jerusalem, so must thou bear witness also at Rome.

HEBREWS 9:15-22
15 And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.
16 For where a testament is, there must also of necessity be the death of the testator.
17 For a testament is of force after men are dead: otherwise it is of no strength at all while the testator liveth.
18 Whereupon neither the first testament was dedicated without blood.
19 For when Moses had spoken every precept to all the people according to the law, he took the blood of calves and of goats, with water, and scarlet wool, and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book, and all the people,
20 Saying, This is the blood of the testament which God hath enjoined unto you.
21 Moreover he sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle, and all the vessels of the ministry.
22 And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission.

HEBREWS 10:28-39
28 He that despised Moses’ law died without mercy under two or three witnesses:
29 Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace?
30 For we know him that hath said, Vengeance belongeth unto me, I will recompense, saith the Lord. And again, The Lord shall judge his people.
31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
32 But call to remembrance the former days, in which, after ye were illuminated, ye endured a great fight of afflictions;
33 Partly, whilst ye were made a gazingstock both by reproaches and afflictions; and partly, whilst ye became companions of them that were so used.
34 For ye had compassion of me in my bonds, and took joyfully the spoiling of your goods, knowing in yourselves that ye have in heaven a better and an enduring substance.
35 Cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great recompence of reward.
36 For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise.
37 For yet a little while, and he that shall come will come, and will not tarry.
38 Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him.
39 But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul.
