EU to dangle IMF votes for Chinese currency restraint
– Tue Sep 21, 1:53 pm ET


BRUSSELS (AFP) – European leaders will dangle a genuine willingness to give up votes in the IMF and other global powerbases if China shows responsibility on currency moves, a senior EU diplomat said Tuesday.An October 6 summit between the European Union and China, following broader meetings of leaders from 46 European and Asian nations including Russia and Australia for the first time, will see EU leaders pressed on re-balancing controls over the global economy.But while ruling out any wholesale transfer of voting power in the International Monetary Fund, Europe will commit to move in that direction with the diplomat insisting: Do not underestimate the readiness of the European side to be constructive.The eighth Asia-Europe meeting (ASEM) on October 4-5 comes just before the IMF annual meeting addresses the issue and one month before G20 leaders attempt to settle a rift over lop-sided representation at a summit in South Korea.The IMF board, which has a statutory 20 seats, currently holds 24 members, but the extra four would have to be cut back if no diplomatic deal on representation is agreed before its new, two-year board is selected by November 1.Europe currently corners nine seats, and recognises even US pressure to share out more clout among fast-growing developing economies.

As the pressure mounts, European nations will argue that with increased representation, comes increased responsibilities, amid pressure on Beijing to let its exchange rate appreciate.China said Tuesday that US pressure on Beijing to boost the value of the yuan was unwise and shortsighted, after US President Barack Obama criticised the country's exchange rate policy.The Obama administration maintains that Beijing is keeping its currency artificially low against the dollar to make its exports more competitive, and is showing increasing signs of frustration over the long-running row.Jiang however reiterated that yuan appreciation alone would not help reduce the huge US trade deficit with China.Beijing pledged in June to loosen its grip on the yuan, which had been effectively pegged at about 6.8 to the dollar since mid-2008. Since then, the currency has gained about 1.9 percent against the greenback.All those issues are tied together... on the European side, there is a genuine willingness to move towards re-balancing, said the European diplomat, who requested anonymity.Currency markets were relatively quiet before a much-anticipated meeting of the US Federal Reserve later Tuesday.

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.

Storm knocks out power to 35,000 in central Ontario
Updated: Tue Sep. 21 2010 8:30:10 PM The Canadian Press


HUNTSVILLE, Ont. — A severe storm has forced police to close Highway 141 in several areas in the Huntsville, Ont., region. Provincial police say Highway 141 is closed in both directions at Old Parry Sound Road and near Skeleton Lake Road 2. Downed hydro wires are blamed for both closures.Hydro One says about 25,000 customers are without power in the area of central Ontario east of Georgian Bay.Another 10,000 customers are affected in the Manitoulin Island area.Environment Canada says a line of thunderstorms moved over Lake Huron and Georgian Bay packing 100 km/h wind gusts and heavy downpours.

Body of Texas man recovered as rain finally eases
SEPT 21,10


CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas – Storms partly fueled by Hurricane Karl finally began weakening along the Texas coast on Tuesday after dumping more than 10 inches of rain, and authorities found the body of driver who had been swept away by floods.

Widespread flooding closed schools and forced families into shelters, but forecasters said the lingering showers shouldn't be as severe.The worst is over, National Weather Service meteorologist Matt Grantham said.Corpus Christi police found the body of Kelechi Kinsley Nwogu, 36, who authorities said had dialed 911 on Monday after driving into Oso Creek, which had swelled to record levels after three days of relentless rain. The call got dropped before the driver was found.Earlier this month, flooding caused by remnants of Tropical Storm Hermine killed at least eight people, including seven in Texas. Gov. Rick Perry on Tuesday requested a disaster declaration for 13 counties hit hardest by Hermine, saying the storm caused more than $2.9 million in damage.Drenching storms that began Saturday caused problems up and down the Texas coast. Pressure from heavy rains on an aging sewer system in Corpus Christi led to more than 100,000 gallons of raw sewage overflowing from a manhole, while emergency teams went door-to-door in some neighborhoods near the Mexico border that were under 2 to 3 feet of water.

No rest for flood-ravaged Mexico as new storm hits
– Tue Sep 21, 6:52 pm ET


LA PAZ, Mexico (AFP) – A new tropical storm compounded Mexico's misery Tuesday, drenching the Baja peninsula as the country tallied its dead and struggled to care for one million people affected by Hurricane Karl and historic flooding.Pacific Tropical Storm Georgette drenched the resort town of Cabo San Lucas at Baja California's southern tip, lashing the region with sustained winds of 65 kilometers (40 miles) per hour.We have already evacuated around 1,000 families from areas vulnerable to flooding and storm surges, said Jose Gajon, director of Civil Defense for Baja California Sur state.Across the country to the east, the toll from the powerful hurricane which struck last Friday, mainly in Veracruz state along the Gulf of Mexico coast, rose to 22 dead as emergency crews searched many of the hundreds of towns and villages inundated by heavy rains and flooding and struggled to reach more remote communities.Among the fatalities were seven passengers on a bus that was buried when a hillside bloated by heavy rains gave way early Tuesday, near the central town of Villa Guerrero some 60 kilometers (37 miles) from Mexico City, according to the town's mayor, Tito Maya de la Cruz.Another 20 people were missing in the tragedy, he said, amid fears the death toll would rise as Civil Defense rescue teams had spent hours digging through thick mud and debris in an effort to find missing people.

At least 12 people died from Karl-related flooding or landslides in Veracruz, where authorities said half a million people have been affected, including 40,000 who remained in emergency shelters Tuesday.Nearly half the state is under water, Veracruz Governor Fidel Herrera told reporters a day after President Felipe Calderon toured hard-hit regions of the state and called for tightened security to clamp down on looting.But Herrera reiterated his call for solidarity between the half million in Veracruz and an equal number in the country's south and east who have been displaced or affected in varying degrees by weeks of rain and flooding.I have no doubt that in the next seven days Veracruz will dry out, and together we will push to rebuild, he said.Major flooding earlier this month across Mexico left 25 people dead. Authorities described this year's wet season as the worst on record.And just four days after Karl's wrath, Tropical Storm Georgette was pummeling the Pacific coast.Earlier in the day authorities halted all maritime traffic in the area amid forecasts of four-meter (13-foot) swells.The US National Hurricane Center (NHC) said it forecast Georgette would move out over the Gulf of California Tuesday night and maintain its strength before churning ashore in mainland Mexico sometime Wednesday afternoon or evening.The storm was expected to dump 10-15 centimeters (four-six inches) of rain, with up to 25 centimeters (10 inches) possible in isolated areas.

These rainfall amounts may produce life-threatening flash floods and mud slides, the NHC said in a bulletin.Back in Veracruz, several of Mexico's most historic structures had been inundated, including dozens of buildings in La Antigua, the first town founded by the Spanish in eastern Mexico.They include the ruins of the house of Hernan Cortes, named on behalf of the famed 16th Century Spanish conquistador, which was under 1.5 meters (five feet) of water after the hurricane barreled ashore nearby. Once all the water recedes, the damage to the ruins will be assessed,local historian Wenceslao Garcia told AFP.Some parts of the historic town were still under half a meter (1.7 feet) of water on Tuesday, and locals said they felt cut off from the outside world after the hurricane.My family lost everything, said 42-year-old Fernando Montes, who was using a machete to cut up a fallen tree.
There was no support for nearly two days until the army arrived.

Hurricane Igor hits Canada with heavy rains
– Tue Sep 21, 6:02 pm ET


ST. JOHN'S, Newfoundland – Hurricane Igor pelted Canada's Atlantic coast province of Newfoundland with heavy rain Tuesday, flooding communities, washing out roads and stranding some residents in their homes.The Canadian Hurricane Centre said Igor had transformed into a post-tropical storm, which has a different structure from a hurricane but still packs the same punch. The storm battered Newfoundland, on Canada's eastern coast.In the Pacific, a mild tropical storm formed and was expected to cross the Mexican resort area of Baja California.The Canadian Hurricane Centre said the change in Igor's classification does not reflect a downgrade in the storm's intensity because winds have strengthened as the storm draws energy from another weather system to the west.Normally the cool North Atlantic chills out these hurricanes, but this one came up with a vengeance and met another low pressure system and the combined wallop of the wind and the water has been quite devastating, Newfoundland Premier Danny Williams said in an interview with The Associated Press.

Williams said it caused tens of millions of dollars in damages and said it's the hardest they've been hit in recent memory. He said 14 communities have declared a state of emergency and said 27 communities are isolated as a result of washouts and road damages. He said the damage is significant.There are a lot of homes that are nearly completely submerged. Barns and structures have been washed away, completely out to sea, Williams said.He said he would visit some of the affected communities Wednesday.Royal Canadian Mounted Police Sgt. Boyd Merrill said they were investigating a report of a missing 80-year old man who was reportedly washed into the sea on Tuesday morning on Random Island when a driveway collapsed from underneath him due to heavy water flow. Merrill said police and the coast guard have not been able to access the island.This is not your normal heavy rainfall flooding. It's having a major impact, said Chris Fogarty, of the Canadian Hurricane Centre. He said more than 200 millimeters (8 inches) of rain have fallen in some regions.

Marystown Mayor Sam Synard said the storm was overwhelming his community's capacity to cope.We've never seen such a violent storm before, he said.We've lost sections of our main roads, completely washed out to sea.Keith Rodway, a member of the Clarenville town council, said parts of his town had to be evacuated.In the Pacific, a mild tropical storm formed and was expected to cross the Mexican resort area of Baja California later in the day. The Pacific tropical storm, Georgette, had maximum sustained winds near 40 mph (65 kph), but was expected to weaken as it moved over the Baja California peninsula. The U.S. National Hurricane Center in Miami said Georgette made landfall near or just east of Cabo San Lucas. A tropical storm warning was issued for southern Baja California.Georgette was located about 10 miles (15 kilometers) south of Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, on Tuesday morning and was moving north-northwest near 9 mph (15 kph). A tropical storm warning was issued for southern Baja California.Royal Canadian Mounted Police Sgt. Wayne Edgecombe said heavy rains that flooded a key bridge in southern Newfoundland have left the Burin Peninsula's 20,000 residents cut off from the rest of the province. Edgecombe said roads all over the peninsula have been washed out or submerged, but so far there have been no major crises.About 20,000 people live on the Burin Peninsula.Igor doggedly maintained maximum sustained winds near 80 mph (130 kph). On Tuesday, the storm center was about 125 miles (200 kilometers) north-northeast of St. John's, Newfoundland and moving to the northeast near 39 mph (63 kph), the U.S. National Hurricane Center in Miami said.Schools have been closed and some flights at the St. John's International Airport have been delayed or canceled. The Canadian company Husky Energy evacuated workers from two semi-submersible drilling rigs working the White Rose offshore oil field, spokeswoman Colleen McConnell said.Igor left behind power outages, grounded boats and downed trees in Bermuda and kicked up dangerous surf on the U.S. Atlantic coast. After brushing past Bermuda, which escaped major damage, Igor veered away from the United States, but forecasters said it could still cause high surf and dangerous rip currents along U.S. beaches.

A 21-year-old man died while surfing in the storm-churned waves off Surf City, North Carolina, where he was pulled from the water Sunday afternoon. Last week, high surf kicked up by Igor swept two people out to sea in the Caribbean — one in Puerto Rico and another in the U.S. Virgin Islands. Across Los Cabos — a string of Mexican resort towns at the tip of Baja California — boat owners scrambled to tie down yachts, while restaurant workers hauled in chairs and tables ahead of Georgette's arrival. Tourists canceled fishing trips at the last minute and hunkered down inside luxury hotels for board games and spa sessions.Only light rain fell Tuesday morning, but winds kicked up 6-foot (2-meter) waves.Meanwhile far out in the Atlantic, Tropical Storm Lisa formed early Tuesday with winds near 45 mph (75 kph). The storm was located about 525 miles (850 kilometers) west-northwest of the Cape Verde Islands off the coast of Africa.Associated Press writer Rob Gillies in Toronto and Ignacio Martinez in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico contributed to this report.

MEPs to call six ambassadors for hearings-The public interviews will test nominees on their knowledge of new dossiers (Photo: EUobserver)ANDREW RETTMAN
21.09.2010 @ 06:48 CET


EUOBSERVER / BRUSSELS - MEPs in the foreign affairs committee are to ask the EU's new ambassadors to China, Georgia, Japan, Lebanon and Pakistan and the EU Special Representative (EUSR) to Sudan to come in for hearings to check if they are up to scratch.The committee drew up the list at a meeting in Strasbourg on Monday (20 September) and aims to carry out the interviews in public sessions next month. More names can be added, especially if information comes to light casting doubt on the eligibility of other nominees.German centre-right deputy Elmar Brok said the group of six was chosen due to the importance of the countries rather than any worries about individual candidates.We will check for knowledge of the dossier. A civil servant does not need to have a political vision, he told EUobserver. MEPs do not have the legal power to block nominations. But if one of the interviewees performs badly it will create pressure for EU foreign relations chief Catherine Ashton to reconsider the posting. We did not want to have a system like in the United States, where Congress can block appointments and it takes a year and a half to get anything done, Mr Brok said.Ms Ashton on 15 September published a list of 29 nominees for heads of delegation and deputy heads of delegation in the European External Action Service (EEAS). She appointed the new EUSR to Sudan on 11 August. The new ambassador to China, German diplomat Markus Ederer, who is currently the head of policy planning in the German foreign ministry, is seen as a very strong choice. The new envoy to Georgia, former Bulgarian prime minister Philip Dimitrov, is also seen as a heavy-hitter because of his previous high office.The envoy to Japan, Austrian diplomat Hans Dietmar Schweisgut, should have a good grasp of EU policy as he is currently Austria's ambassador to the EU.

The other three people to face the MEPs' grilling will be: Dutch EU official Angelina Eichhorst (the new ambassador to Lebanon), who is today the head of the Political, Economic and Trade section in the European Commission delegation to Syria; Swedish EU official Lars-Gunnar Wigemark (Pakistan), the current head of the commission's Security Policy unit; and British diplomat Rosalind Marsden (Sudan EUSR), the previous UK ambassador to Sudan.Ms Ashton will in the coming weeks also name new people to head her missions to Belarus, Brazil and Iraq.MEPs won the right to cross-examine her nominees in return for giving the green light to the EEAS' new budget and staff regulations in a political deal in July.The deal does not cover her choices for top EEAS administrative jobs, such as secretary general and two deputy secretary generals. But Mr Brok said parliament might call in the new top bureaucrats as well.It's not in the agreement. But we will try to see if we can make some of them come in, he said.

EU sued over lack of transparency
ANDREW WILLIS 21.09.2010 @ 09:22 CET


EUOBSERVER / BRUSSELS - A group of environmental lawyers are suing the EU over alleged attempts to restrict access to information and a lack of transparency in the bloc's biofuels policy. On Monday (20 September) ClientEarth filed a lawsuit against the European Commission in the EU's General Court in Luxembourg, charging the executive body with having failed to release documents containing previously undisclosed information on the negative climate impacts of widespread biofuels use.
The case, taken jointly with Transport and Environment, the European Environmental Bureau and BirdLife International, focuses on a controversial study of biofuel use which the four groups claim was manipulated by the commission. In April the International Food Policy Research Group (IFPRI) published the study which suggested that EU biofuel policy would reduce carbon emissions. But it later was claimed that the research was based on flawed assumptions, inserted at the request of the commission's energy department.Climate Earth said it decided to take the case on Monday after repeated calls to see emails relating to the changes were ignored.The commission is running an opaque operation, said Tim Grabiel, a lawyer at ClientEarth. Citizens are being denied the right to participate in decisions that affect flagship climate policies and will not only affect their lives but those of future generations as well.In March the four environmental groups took a similar case against the commission for failing to release certain documents, with the bloc's biofuels policy coming under increased scrutiny in recent years.

The EU requires at least 10 percent of energy for road and rail transport in 2020 to come from renewable sources, with biofuels originally being hailed as a key strategy to reduce the use of fossil fuels, largely blamed for climate change.A growing number of question marks have been raised, however. A recent World Bank report said that EU and US biofuels policies have resulted in a rush for land in Africa and other developing regions, taking over areas that had previously been used for food production.Other studies note that the desire to grow fuel crops has contributed to deforestation.Second generation biofuels using waste straw and forestry offcuts are seen as a solution to these problems and are said to be nearing commercialisation, but it may still be several years before they are rolled out across the globe.

Wider lack of EU transparency

In a separate case on Monday, ClientEarth also decided to sue the Council of Ministers (the EU institution representing member states) over an alleged failure to release documents.The issue relates to EU plans to review its access-to-documents law which dates back to 2002. The commission put forward plans to review the law in 2008 which ClientEarth says will restrict citizens' access to certain EU documents.
The case against the council relates to its refusal to hand over an internal legal opinion on the review.Anais Berthier, environmental justice lawyer at ClientEarth, said:The fact that we have to sue for lack of transparency during its review of EU transparency rules speaks volumes about the EU's commitment to an open society.If the commission's proposals are allowed to progress unchallenged the ramifications for freedom of information will be far-reaching.

EU squeezes China and Korea summits into one day
ANDREW WILLIS 21.09.2010 @ 17:20 CET


EUOBSERVER / BRUSSELS - The EU has waxed lyrical this month about stepping up relations with its strategic partners, but holding a bilateral summit with China on the same day as a similar meeting with South Korea is a poor start, say experts. EU officials confirmed on Tuesday (21 September) that a meeting between Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso, European Council President Herman Van Rompuy and Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao during the afternoon of 6 October will be preceded earlier in the day by an EU-South Korea summit.The move has raised eyebrows considering that EU High Representative Cathy Ashton reportedly spent roughly 17 hours during her recent trip to China just to prepare for the upcoming summit with Dai Bingguo, Beijing's most senior foreign policy official.Amongst the weighty issues to be discussed are the G20 leaders' meeting in November and efforts to secure a successful environmental deal in Cancun later this year. Both South Korea and China are important relationships and cramming them in on the same day doesn't send a good message,Alice Richard, China programme co-ordinator with the European Council on Foreign Relations, told this website.A commission official defended the timing, saying it was designed to facilitate travel arrangements for Asian officials visiting Brussels for an earlier EU-ASEAN summit on 4th and 5th of October.The summits come amid an increasing realisation of China's growing stature in global affairs, evidenced by a European parliamentary debate on Tuesday morning.Speaking on behalf of the legislature's largest political family, the centre-right EPP, Cypriot MEP Ioannis Kasoulides said the EU should pursue its interests but also our values, referring specifically on the need to speak out against the reported ill-treatment of many Tibetans.Other deputies concentrated on the need to secure greater market access for EU firms doing business in China, citing a maze of regulatory requirements as a deliberate hinderance to foreign companies.Liberal MEP Niccolo Rinaldi said the EU's trade deficit with China had trebbled over the last five years. We should make it clear to our Chinese friends that we don't like it,he told EU trade commissioner Karel De Gucht, present in the plenary chamber.

A coherent strategy?

Despite the growing interest in China, commentators were scathing about last week's European Summit on foreign affairs, pointing to a spat between France and the commission over the Roma ethnic group as a fortunate diversion from the meeting's lack of results.But EU officials hope the bloc's External Action Service and the appointment of a fully-fledged EU ambassador to Beijing will help unify the frequent cacophony of divergent member state voices.German Markus Ederer is set to take the powerful post, assuming he makes it through a hearing with the European Parliament's foreign affairs committee next month.I expected it would be a German, they have the most important relationship with China, said Gustaaf Geeraerts, director of the Brussels Institute of Contemporary China Studies.According to Mr Geeraerts, while the commission is China's main interlocutor on economic issues, Beijing prefers to deal with EU member states on foreign policy issues as the EU does not have a sharp list of negotiating positions in this area.Member state inability to band together is also a problem, he says, with China frequently playing one government off another.The former big EU powers still have their own domestic interests and attach greater priorities to national positions,he said. This is unsound. The British and French share of world GDP is constantly decreasing and if they are to have a role in the future they must co-operate.

Journalist Reveals The PA's Palestine Plot
by David Lev SEPT 21,10


There's a method to PA chief Mahmoud Abbas' ongoing refusal to negotiate seriously with Israel, journalist Uri Elitzur told Israelnationalnews in an interview – and unfortunately, his plan has a relatively good plan of succeeding.Elitzur laid out the plot in the weekend edition of Hebrew newspaper Mekor Rishon, of which he is one of the editors, last Friday. The PA's insistence that it will walk out of the talks if Israel ends the building freeze in Judea and Samaria he says,is a political gambit for something Abbas and company are far more interested in: An Israeli agreement on the borders of a Palestinian state before resolving other sensitive issues, such as security, Jerusalem, and PA demands that descendants of Arabs who abandoned Israel in 1948 be allowed to return to their former homes.The strategy is apparent to anyone who bothers to look, Elitzur says.Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu knows that the talks are a game, Abbas knows the talks are a game, and both are playing well.The game, in this case, is to pass the blame for failure of the talks to the other party. U.S. President Barack Obama knows it's a game, too, Elitzur says – and he also knows how far he can push Israel. Obama knows that an American president is not a Caesar who can do whatever he wants, and there is a limit to the pressure the White House can impose on Israel. Given that both Israel and the PA have so many red lines that they dare not cross, the talks were doomed to fail, even before they started, Elitzur says.Behind this endless game lies an important consideration: What happens the day after the talks fail? What is the alternative plan? Unlike Israel, Elitzur says, the PA has such a plan: To back Israel into a corner and get Netanyahu to agree to borders of a Palestinian state

So why bother? Behind this endless game lies an important consideration: What happens the day after the talks fail? What is the alternative plan? Unlike Israel, Elitzur says, the PA has such a plan: To back Israel into a corner and get Netanyahu to agree to a shelf agreement - meaning that most of the impassable issues would be put on the shelf for the time being, while the one issue that the PA really wants to see resolved – the borders of the Palestinian state – are decided right now. Tsipi Livni actually agreed to this when she was Prime Minister, Elitzur says.If the borders between Israel and Palestine are delineated, Elitzur says, the PA can declare an official Palestinian state – one that has a reasonable chance of being accepted by the rest of the world. Contrary to popular thinking, the PA would not be able to get away with declaring a state unilaterally – not after they signed agreement after agreement that specifies negotiations as the only legitimate path to a PA state.But if Israel – and the U.S. - agree to delineate the borders, Elitzur says that the PA could probably get a great deal of international support and recognition for the PA state; they might even successfully join the UN. Once that happens, it would be a simple matter to mount a truly effective campaign against Jews residing in Palestine - and little by little, Israel would withdraw from all the areas it agreed would be part of a de jure Palestinian state, without achieving any of its security goals – and we would be stuck with a de facto terror state that could pose a mortal threat.Would the U.S. recognize such a state? Maybe not, Elitzur told Israelnationalnews. But I believe Obama would. And if he does well in the November elections, he could make life unpleasant for Israel if we don't go along with the plan, by doing things like abstaining from Security Council votes against us, and so on.In fact, in recent statements, Obama hinted at just such plan, saying in a press conference last week that ultimately, the way to solve these problems is for the two sides to agree what’s going to be Israel, what’s going to be the state of Palestine. And if you can get that agreement, then you can start constructing anything that the people of Israel see fit in undisputed areas.

The PA plan has the potential to change the public discussion on what would constitute a resolution of the Mideast conflict.Right now, the world hears us talk about a comprehensive agreement, security, two states for two peoples, and so on, Elitzur says. But if Abbas has his way, the settlements will be the only issue on the table – because we will have agreed that they are the only issue on the table. The fact that Netanyahu is likely to offer less of Judea and Samaria for a Palestinian state than either Livni or Olmert were – about 90% (although, says Elitzur, the rest will be made up with territory currently part of the State of Israel), is a sacrifice Abbas is willing to make in order to be able to declare an independent Palestine without having to hew to any of Israel's conditions.So will he get away with it? So far, Netanyahu seems to be avoiding this trap, but he is not immune to pressure.It would make things much easier for Obama, too; instead of pressuring Israel to compromise on dozens of issues, he would have only one issue to persuade – or pressure – Netanyahu to accept. Is there anything the average Israeli can do about it? Say tehillim, Elitzur says. And tell your friends to read the story that Arutz 7 is doing about it. The more people who understand what is going on, the better our chance of beating this plot.(IsraelNationalNews.com)

Abbas Furious at Israel for Killing Hamas Terrorist in PA City
by Tzvi Ben Gedalyahu SEPT 21,10


Palestinian Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas is furious at Israel for killing a Hamas terrorist in the city of Tulkarm, where the PA is responsible for security.

Abbas told the Bethlehem-based Ma'an news agency in an interview that he demanded that Israel stop operating in PA cities where the PA is supposed to eliminate the terrorist infrastructure. He did not say whether the PA knew of the location of the terrorist, who was identified as Iyad Abu-Shalabiya, 38, a Hamas member and former senior commander.He had served time in prison in Israel for security offenses, and was on the IDF's wanted list.American-trained PA troops, who officially are called policemen but underwent army training under the supervision of American army officers, generally have dealt with crime, traffic violations and misdemeanors. They have entered the field of security more frequently in the past several weeks to arrest Arabs who are active in Hamas and are against the rival Fatah party, headed by Abbas.Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu has insisted that Israeli forces be present in the Jordan Valley if an agreement is reached for the establishment of a new Arab state headed by the PA. PA spokesman Husam Zomlot said that not one Israeli soldier will be permitted to remain in a future Palestinian state, the Bloomberg news site reported.(IsraelNationalNews.com)

Fed lays groundwork for possible further stimulus By Mark Felsenthal and Pedro da Costa - SEPT 21,10

WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The Federal Reserve on Tuesday inched closer to fresh steps to bolster a sluggish U.S. recovery, saying it stood ready to provide more support for the economy and expressing stronger concerns about low inflation.The U.S. central bank's policy-setting panel opened the door wider to pumping hundreds of billions of new dollars into the economy, although it made no policy shift at the end of a one-day meeting, keeping overnight interest rates near zero.The committee ... is prepared to provide additional accommodation if needed to support the economic recovery and to return inflation, over time, to levels consistent with its mandate, it said in a statement.After its last meeting on August 10, the Federal Open Market Committee had simply said it would employ its policy tools as necessary.

The FOMC now has a very explicit easing bias,JPMorgan economist Michael Feroli wrote in a note to clients. The Fed is now admitting that they are not hitting the inflation mandate, clearly not hitting the employment mandate and -- with subpar growth forecasted for the near term -- not even moving in the right direction.The expectation for further easing was captured in a Reuters poll of primary dealers taken just after the decision. It showed 10 of the 16 big banks who responded said further accommodation was likely, with seven predicting an announcement could come as early as the Fed's next meeting in November.The Fed underscored its concerns over easing price pressures in its statement by explicitly stating for the first time that core inflation was running below levels at which policymakers are comfortable.

With substantial resource slack continuing to restrain cost pressures and longer-term inflation expectations stable, inflation is likely to remain subdued for some time,it said.U.S. Treasury debt prices surged after the statement, with the yield on the two-year note hitting a series of record lows, and the dollar fell sharply as investors speculated about further easing as soon as the Fed's next meeting on November 2-3.Gold prices, which have jumped about 17 percent this year on concerns that efforts to prop up the U.S. economy will fuel inflation, set a fresh record high.On Wall Street, U.S. stock prices ended flat to lower in an erratic session.The Federal Reserve has taken another step, albeit a half step, in recognizing the unusually sluggish economic and employment outlook and related need for additional policy measures,said Mohamed El-Erian, co-chief investment officer at bond fund PIMCO.

EYE ON PRICES

Kansas City Federal Reserve Bank President Thomas Hoenig dissented for a sixth consecutive time, reiterating his view that the central bank could allow its balance sheet to shrink and that a vow -- repeated on Tuesday -- to keep borrowing costs exceptionally low for an extended period was no longer warranted.After cutting the overnight federal funds rate to near zero in December 2008, the Fed launched an asset-buying program in a further effort to lower borrowing costs and help the economy.In the end, it bought $1.7 trillion in longer-term U.S. government debt and mortgage-related bonds. Restarting large-scale purchases of government bonds is the Fed's most likely next step.Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke said late last month that the central bank was ready to provide more stimulus if needed, but that officials would only act if the economic outlook deteriorated significantly.The Fed's statement made plain that the likely path of inflation would be a key guide as U.S. policymakers ponder their next step. Core inflation, as measured by the Fed's preferred gauge, was up 1.4 percent in the 12 months to July. Officials would like to see it land between 1.7 percent and 2 percent. But the Fed said it expected core inflation eventually to rise to levels consistent with its comfort zone. By emphasizing the need to act against the risk of deflation -- a potentially crippling downward price spiral -- Bernanke may be making an appeal to the inflation-focused hawks on the panel. Some have said they would only support further easing if deflation was a risk.

FURTHER CURRENCY PRESSURE

The Fed's easy money policies and the prospect of further easing have driven up the value of currencies in other countries, including Japan and Brazil, as investors moved out of the dollar in search of higher returns -- a move that accelerated on Tuesday.Japan intervened last week to weaken the yen, which had surged to a 15-year high against the dollar, and emerging markets are seeking ways to control huge capital inflows.The painful U.S. recession ended in June 2009, but the recovery has lost momentum this year with growth tapering to an anemic 1.6 percent annualized rate in the second quarter.Other economic data over the summer also proved surprisingly weak, prompting analysts to cut their growth forecasts for the second half of the year. A Reuters poll on September 8 found analysts looking for growth in the third quarter to come in at just a 1.8 percent rate.While the tone of the data has improved in recent weeks, the economy's sluggish pace and a deeply troubled job market have kept alive fears of another downturn.(Additional reporting by Emily Kaiser, Glenn Somerville and Emily Flitter; Editing by Dan Grebler, Gary Crosse, Leslie Gevirtz)

Ahmadinejad blames capitalism for poverty By EDITH M. LEDERER, Associated Press Writer - SEPT 21,10

UNITED NATIONS – Iran's president on Tuesday predicted the defeat of capitalism and blamed global big business for the suffering of millions, but Germany's chancellor said market economies were key to lifting the world's least developed countries out of poverty.The clash of visions at the U.N. anti-poverty summit drew a line under the stark differences on easing the misery of the one billion people living on less than $1.25 a day.More than 140 presidents, prime ministers and kings are attending the three-day summit which started Monday to assess and spur on achievement of U.N. targets set by world leaders in 2000. The plan called for an intensive global campaign to ease poverty, disease and inequalities between rich and poor by 2015.

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, however, never mentioned the Millennium Development Goals in his speech to the 192-member General Assembly.Instead, he took aim at capitalism and called for the overhaul of undemocratic and unjust global decision-making bodies, which are dominated by the United States and other Western powers. While Ahmadinejad didn't single out any country, he said world leaders, thinkers and global reformers should spare no effort to make practical plans for a new world order — reform of international economic and political institutions.It is my firm belief that in the new millennium, we need to revert to the divine mindset...based on the justice-seeking nature of mankind, and on the monotheistic world view..., the Iranian leader said in a brief speech intertwining philosophy and religion with the current state of the world. Now that the discriminatory order of capitalism and the hegemonic approaches are facing defeat.Ahmadinejad proposed that the United Nations name the coming 10 years the decade for the joint global governance.Soon afterward, German Chancellor Angela Merkel, the world's fourth-largest economic power, took an opposite tack, likely speaking for the rest of the capitalist world.Stressing that the primary responsibility for development lies with the governments of the developing countries, she said the key to economic prosperity was good governance and a flourishing capitalist economy.The countries themselves must promote the development of a market economy...for without self-sustaining economic growth developing countries will find the road out of poverty and hunger too steep to travel, Merkel said.The German leader said international assistance can't substitute for domestic resources, warned that development aid cannot continue indefinitely and declared that support for good governance is as important as aid itself.

Oxfam, one of the world's most respect aid organizations, slammed Merkel's address. Spokeswoman Emma Seery said more had been expected from the Germans, who failed to explain how they will meet their promises of aid to poor countries, and sidestepped their responsibility to make aid work by laying this at the door of the poorest countries.Seery also chided the German leader for not joining with France and Spain in calling for a small tax on financial transactions that would go to meet development needs of poor countries. Whether Germany can still claim to be a development leader is now questionable, she said in an unusually blunt assessment of a government leader's address.U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon has said the world is on track to cut extreme poverty by half, the No. 1 goal, though some critics say it's mainly because of the big strides in China and India. Many recent reports show that the world's poorest countries, especially in sub-Saharan Africa, have made little progress in eradicating poverty.And in Africa, Asia and Latin America there also has been a lack of progress in meeting other key goals: reducing mother and child deaths, increasing the number of people with access to basic sanitation, and promoting women's equality. Ban is expected to launch a new initiative Wednesday to spur action on improving the lot of women and children.In his speech, Ahmadinejad did not mention Iran's nuclear program or the four rounds of U.N. Security Council sanctions over Tehran's refusal to prove it is not trying to build a nuclear weapon. Iran claims it is only working on nuclear power to generate electricity.The subject may be raised again Thursday when the General Assembly's annual ministerial meeting begins.Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov raised the sanctions issue in his speech, saying U.N. sanctions were not intended to harm ordinary civilians. He voiced serious concern at additional sanctions imposed by individual countries. The criticism appeared aimed at the United States, the European Union, Australia, Canada, Japan and South Korea, all of whom have imposed their own much tougher sanctions on Tehran.

We are convinced that such practice contradicts the efforts to achieve the MDGs and must be brought to an end, Lavrov said, using the initials of the Millennium Development Goals. To counter these threats, Lavrov said Russia was ready to help with information and communication technology to bridge the gap between the developed and developing countries and — as a result — to promote global development.
President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf of Liberia, one of the world's poorest nations that has made progress because of the goals, said Africa still has far to go but if efforts are intensified we will, ultimately, achieve them.My message is this: As we renew our resolve in 2010, we must recognize the need for inclusive economic growth. We need rapid, stable, and sustained growth that creates jobs, especially for youth and in sectors that benefit the poor, and expands opportunities for women, she said.

Pakistan's Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi said until a few years ago his country was on track to achieve a number of the MDGs, but the fight against terrorism and the recent unprecedented flooding have changed almost everything.The MDGs remain the centerpiece of Pakistan's development program, he said, but the rehabilitation of flood-ravaged areas will cost billions and will impact economic recovery and achievement of the U.N. goals. At events on the sidelines of the summit, U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton launched a program to address chronic malnutrition blamed for 3.5 million maternal and child deaths a year. The program, co-sponsored by the Irish government, focuses on the first 1,000 days of a child's life, during which nutrition is critical to mental and physical development.
Later, Clinton helped launch a new program to place cleaner cooking stoves in 100 million homes by 2020. She said unsafe stoves expose as many as three billion people to toxic chemicals and smoke, and upgrading them can save and improve millions of lives.

Archaeologists find theater box at Herod's palace By AISHA MOHAMMED, Associated Press Writer – Tue Sep 21, 6:21 pm ET

JERUSALEM – Israeli archaeologists have excavated a lavish, private theater box in a 400-seat facility at King Herod's winter palace in the Judean desert, the team's head said Tuesday.Ehud Netzer of Jerusalem's Hebrew University said the room provides further evidence of King Herod's famed taste for extravagance.Herod commissioned Roman artists to decorate the theater walls with elaborate paintings and plaster moldings around 15 B.C., Netzer said. Its upper portions feature paintings of windows overlooking a river and a seascape with a large sailboat.This is the first time this painting style has been found in Israel, Netzer said.Herod was the Jewish proxy ruler of the Holy Land under Roman occupation from 37 to 4 B.C. He is known for his extensive building throughout the area.The team first excavated the site — sitting atop a man-made hill 2,230 feet high — in 2007. Netzer described the site as a kind of country club, with a pool, baths and gardens fed by pools and aqueducts.But archaeological evidence shows the theater's life was short-lived, Netzer said. Builders deliberately destroyed it to preserve the conic shape of the man-made hill.After Herod's death in the 1st century B.C., the complex became a stronghold for Jewish rebels fighting Roman occupation, and the palace site suffered significant battle damage before it was destroyed by Roman soldiers in A.D. 71, a year after they razed the Second Temple in Jerusalem.

Mideast peacemakers push Israel on settlements By JOHN HEILPRIN and MATTHEW LEE, Associated Press Writers - SEPT 21,10

UNITED NATIONS – The Quartet of Mideast peacemakers shepherding the newly started direct Israeli-Palestinian negotiations called on Israel to extend its settlement freeze past Sunday, while cautioning both sides to refrain from provocative actions and inflammatory rhetoric.Senior diplomats from the Quartet — the U.S., the European Union, the United Nations and Russia — met on the sidelines of the United Nations anti-poverty meeting to discuss a way forward in the negotiations, which have made little visible progress since they resumed earlier this month and are at risk of collapse.They renewed a vow to help finally achieve peace in the Middle East.George Mitchell, the Obama administration's envoy for Middle East peace, met Tuesday with Israeli and Palestinian officials, including one three-way session with each side's top negotiators, according to U.S. State Department spokesman P.J. Crowley. But there was no sign that either side was ready to commit to a new round of direct talks.In a statement issued after its meeting, the Quartet said that the commendable Israeli settlement moratorium instituted last November has had a positive impact and urged its continuation.It encouraged both sides to continue negotiating in a constructive manner and urged the international community to support their efforts.

Earlier, the Quartet abruptly canceled a press conference that was to have included Mitchell, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, European Union foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton, U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon and former British Prime Minister Tony Blair.A senior European official who declined to be identified said the meeting with the press was canceled because other participants were insisting on U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton's presence among them. The senior official spoke on condition of anonymity because of the delicacy of the negotiations.

Crowley said Clinton had never intended to attend the news conference, and that the U.S. had decided that Mitchell would speak for the Obama administration. He declined to comment on whether other delegations had tried to persuade her to go. We were prepared to have George Mitchell participate in the press event had it occurred,he said.U.S. and U.N. officials insisted the press conference was canceled for technical reasons, owing to an electrical outage, and hotly denied that the cancellation reflected any problems with the negotiations.There was no disagreement. The news conference was canceled because of the technical problems in the room and building, and because the meeting started late, Ban's spokesman, Martin Nesirky, told AP.From their meeting, the Quartet principals went into talks with officials from the Arab League at which they sought to encourage continued support from the Palestinians' neighbors in reaching a peace accord, Crowley said.At the end of the closed-door meeting with ministers from key Arab nations including Saudi Arabia, Egypt and Jordan, Arab League Secretary-General Amr Moussa said it was a very good session.But on the key issue of whether Israel will extend a partial ban on settlement building in the West Bank, territory the Palestinians want for a future state, Israeli Deputy Foreign Minister Danny Ayalon indicated that Israel disagrees with the view that construction is a major impediment to the talks.Settlements have never been an issue, because once we agree on borders everything will be obvious, so let's concentrate on the real issues and not just put the obstacle in the settlements, he told reporters on the sidelines of the Quartet's talks.The Palestinians have threatened to walk out of the peace talks if the settlement slowdown — due to expire next week — is not extended.French Foreign Minister Bernard Kouchner also said France was exerting pressure and talking to our friends on both sides in hopes Israel would prolong the settlement freeze, which expires Sunday.We need that. Otherwise, the Palestinians were very clear — they will stop the negotiations and the dialogue..., he said.

Israeli President Shimon Peres met privately late Monday with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas in a hotel across from the U.N. complex. They spoke briefly to reporters but did not discuss particulars about the recently renewed Mideast talks, including the key issue of would extend the partial ban on. Shortly after taking office in 2009, President Barack Obama said an outright halt to settlement building was a necessary first step, although his administration has since softened that demand.

Israel warns of violence if peace talks fail By ARON HELLER, Associated Press Writer – Tue Sep 21, 4:26 pm ET

JERUSALEM – With an Israeli-Palestinian impasse on settlement construction set to come to a head this weekend, the Israeli military chief said Tuesday that new Palestinian violence could erupt if peace talks collapse.The Palestinians are threatening to quit the talks unless a 10-month restriction on settlement construction is extended beyond its planned expiration on Sunday. Israel says it cannot be extended, and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu would likely face coalition trouble if he backed down.Netanyahu on Tuesday warned the Hamas movement — which rejects peace with Israel, has controlled the Gaza Strip since 2007, and already carried out one deadly attack this month — against a new round of violence.

Speaking near a community center in southern Israel where a rocket from Gaza recently exploded, he said Israel would continue to respond swiftly. I don't recommend they test our determination in this matter, he said.Lt. Gen. Gabi Ashkenazi, the country's top soldier, told lawmakers that the military was bracing for possible mass protests and clashes.He added, however, that the low expectations for a peace deal could mean any violence would be less intense than the Palestinian uprising that erupted after the failure of the ambitious Camp David summit in 2000 and led to years of Israeli-Palestinian violence characterized by suicide bombings and Israeli army incursions killing thousands.We must be prepared for every possibility, he told parliament's Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee, according to meeting participants who spoke on condition of anonymity in line with protocol. If talks fail, there could be riots.Palestinian Authority spokesman Ghassan Khatib agreed, saying Israel's occupation of the West Bank has generally seen alternating periods of peace efforts and violence, with the failure of one often sparking the other.I think the chances of violence will increase in the case of a breakdown of the peace talks, Khatib said.Israel faces a complex equation, with violence also sometimes coming not as a result of a failure in peace talks but rather as an effort to scuttle them.Ashkenazi warned that groups under Iranian influence will try to thwart the negotiations — a reference to Hamas and Lebanon's Hezbollah group. Both Islamic militant groups staunchly reject peace talks and seek Israel's destruction.

Indeed, Hamas militants killed four Israelis in a drive-by shooting in the West Bank as peace talks were being launched earlier this month.Reflecting rising tensions, settlers and Palestinians lobbed rocks at each other near the West Bank town of Nablus Tuesday.The last round of talks broke down in late 2008 when Israel launched a military offensive in Gaza aimed at stopping militant rocket fire on southern Israel.Under intense U.S. pressure, Israel agreed in November to a 10-month freeze on new construction projects in its West Bank settlements. Several thousand units already being built, however, were allowed to continue. The measure did not apply to Jewish neighborhoods in east Jerusalem, but there has been a de facto halt to new construction there as well.The slowdown in building helped pave the way for the resumption of talks earlier this month in Washington. Israel has accepted the idea of a Palestinian state, and the sides say they hope to reach a full peace deal.The U.S. and other world powers have called on Israel to extend the freeze.Officials from both sides are meeting with American leaders in the United States to seek a compromise ahead of Sunday's deadline. On Tuesday the mood in Israeli government circles was grim, with no way out of the deadlock visible. Some 300,000 Israeli settlers live in the West Bank among about 2.5 million Palestinians. Almost 200,000 more Israelis live in east Jerusalem, where Palestinians want the capital of their hoped-for state. Palestinians and the international community call the settlements obstacles to peace because they make it increasingly difficult for the Palestinians to establish a state not broken up by Israeli enclaves.

Israeli settlers demand that they be permitted to resume building in full force next week, and pro-settlement officials have vowed to help them.Infrastructure Minister Uzi Landau told Army Radio he would advance plans to build hundreds of millions of dollars in water and sewer projects for the settlements. And pro-settler lawmakers plan to hold a celebration Sunday in the West Bank settlement of Revava, where, they say, bulldozers and cement mixers will begin work on a new neighborhood. Ashkenazi added that tensions were rising among the settlers, and that they were likely to stage angry protests if they can't build.Deputy Prime Minister Dan Meridor, a member of Netanyahu's seven-member inner Cabinet, has proposed that Israel resume building in only those parts of the West Bank expected to remain in Israeli hands under a future deal — excluding, for example, most settlements deep inside the territory. The Israeli government has not adopted this position and Palestinians reject it, saying it effectively allows Israel to decide which settlements it will ultimately keep — rather than negotiating the matter.Also on Tuesday, the Israeli army announced the closure of its border crossings from the West Bank into Israel until the end of the month for the Jewish holiday of Sukkot. Such closures seek to prevent attacks during Jewish holidays.Associated Press Writer Mohammed Daraghmeh in Ramallah, West Bank, contributed to this report.

19 The earth is utterly broken down, the earth is clean dissolved, the earth is moved exceedingly.
20 The earth shall reel to and fro like a drunkard, and shall be removed like a cottage; and the transgression thereof shall be heavy upon it; and it shall fall, and not rise again.

43 But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up.
44 Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.
45 Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season?
46 Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing.
47 Verily I say unto you, That he shall make him ruler over all his goods.
48 But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming;
49 And shall begin to smite his fellowservants, and to eat and drink with the drunken;
50 The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for him, and in an hour that he is not aware of,
51 And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Iran's Revolutionary Guard gets new missile
– Tue Sep 21, 8:35 am ET


TEHRAN, Iran – Iran's defense minister says the country's powerful Revolutionary Guard has received its first batch of new missiles with enhanced guidance systems to hit ground targets.Gen. Ahmad Vahidi says the Defense Ministry supplied the Guard with the upgraded surface-to-surface Fateh-110 missile, which was successfully test-fired last month. The weapon was developed by Iran's Aerospace Industries Organization.Iran has been pushing to upgrade its missile arsenal, which is already capable of hitting Israel and other parts of the region.Vahidi says Iran will further develop the Fateh-110. He gave no details of the missile's capabilities but earlier versions had ranges of up to 120 miles (193 kilometers).Vahidi's remarks were published Tuesday on the website of state TV.

Iran leader warns US of war with no limits
– Tue Sep 21, 4:21 pm ET


UNITED NATIONS (AFP) – Iran's President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad warned Tuesday that an attack on his country's nuclear facilities could spark a war with no limits.
Ahmadinejad also raised new questions about the Holocaust as he raised more controversy on his visit to New York for the annual UN General Assembly meetings.The United States has never entered a real war, not in Vietnam, nor in Afghanistan, nor even World War II,the Iranian leader told American editors and reporters when asked about how Iran would react to any US supported strike by Israel on Iran's nuclear facilities.War is just not bombing someplace. When it starts it has no limits, the New York Times reported.Do you think anyone will attack Iran to begin with? he said, according to Atlantic magazine's website. I really don't think so. The Zionist regime is a very small entity on the map, even to the point that it doesn't really factor into our equation.The UN Security Council has imposed four rounds of sanctions against Iran over its nuclear program. The United States and its allies have called for stringent application of the measures and Washington-Tehran relations have become increasingly fraught.The western powers accuse Iran of trying to develop a nuclear bomb. Ahmadinejad denies the charge.The Iranian leader said he was ready for nuclear talks with US President Barack Obama's administration, but said the whole outlook has to shift,ABC News reported.The UN sanctions had damaged the chances for an improvement in US-Iranian relations, he added.

Ahmadinejad blamed international politics for the growing tensions over the nuclear program. Iran?s nuclear case is a political case, the New York Times quoted him as saying. Otherwise, why would it be essential for the details of our nuclear program be made available to the media? Ahmadinejad was again questioned about the killing of millions of Jews in Nazi death camps during World War II.He described it as a historical event used to create a pretext for war.The question is, why don't we allow this subject to be examined further.... It is incorrect to force only one view on the rest of the world, he was quoted as saying.We need to ask, where did this event occur, and why should the Palestinian people continue to suffer for it? I am not an anti-Semite. I am anti-Zionism, he said.Ahmadinejad denied that Iran's opposition movement faced persecution. Those individuals face no problems, no difficulties, he said. They are all free in fact.Ahmadinejad went on to give a chaotic speech at the UN summit on the Millennium Development Goals in which he blamed capitalism for the world's ills.He soon broke off his presentation to complain about the lack of simultaneous translation to the UN assembly presidency.

The president resumed but at the end, the UN interpreters said they were only reading from a translated text in English and not following Ahmadinejad's comments.
The hall was half empty. Canada's delegation boycotted the speech but it appeared to be the only one to protest. In the past western ambassadors and ministers have walked out en masse. Ahmadinejad called for fundamental reform of the undemocratic and unjust world order, according to a text distributed by the Iranian mission.
Demanding liberal capitalism and transnational corporations have caused the suffering of countless women, men and children in so many countries,he was quoted as saying.

Nigeria lead contamination may affect 18,000 people: UN
– Tue Sep 21, 12:07 pm ET


GENEVA (AFP) – More than 200 children are thought to have died in Nigeria following massive lead contamination that has affected an estimated 18,000 people because of illicit gold mining, the UN said Tuesday.Five experts equipped with a mobile laboratory have arrived in the country to help health authorities pin down the extent of the contamination and tackle it, the UN's Organisation for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs said.From the latest figures we have, more than 200 children reportedly died from this poisoning, OCHA spokeswoman Elisabeth Byrs told journalists as the UN body warned of acute massive lead poisoning.Byrs told AFP that an estimated 18,000 people were affected in the villages around the gold mining area in northern Zamfara state, around Bukkuyum and Anka.It's a developing problem. Seven villages were affected but we don't know the full extent, she added.Proper sampling from the mobile laboratory is urgently needed to determine the scope and magnitude of the crisis and to assist in developing a rigorous response, according to an OCHA briefing note.

The poisoning was triggered by makeshift processing of lead-rich ore to extract gold, with crushed rock often taken into homes and communities, while the residue is discarded haphazardly in the soil.Nigerian health authorities first noticed excess mortality in the area in March and brought in international help weeks later, but the extent of the poisoning and contamination appears to have grown.The OCHA said soil also appeared to be heavily contaminated by mercury and copper, and was likely to need a massive clean up.The problem is that the rainy season will cause even greater contamination, Byrs said.In June the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, which was called in by Nigeria to help, described the scope of the lead poisoning as unprecedented.Symptoms of lead poisoning normally build up over long periods as the heavy metal accumulates in the human body, producing abdominal pain, nervous disorders affecting growth and ultimately leading to kidney failure.Children are the most vulnerable.

China launches first cross-border air strike drill
– Tue Sep 21, 9:35 am ET


BEIJING – China has launched its first-ever cross-border simulated air strike as part of joint drills with Russia, Kazakhstan and other Central Asian States, state media reported Tuesday.Six Chinese planes, including four bombers and two fighter jets, crossed from China into Kazakhstan as part of the mock mission, Xinhua News Agency said.The exercise also included support from early warning aircraft and in-flight refueling, showcasing China's efforts to build a credible air deterrent able to strike over long distances, Xinhua said.The mission was part of increasingly sophisticated annual regional security drills that this year include 5,000 troops from China, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Russia and Tajikistan. The reports did not say when the mission was carried out.China's armed forces have intensified training in recent years with the goal of mastering new cutting-edge weapons technologies and integrating the operations of land, air and sea units.Long a poor cousin to China's vast land army, the air force has vaulted up the technological ladder with the addition of latest generation Russian and domestically produced aircraft.Xinhua identified the planes that took part in the cross-border flight as J-10 fighters produced domestically but powered by Russian engines, and Hong-6 bombers, an updated version of a Russian design from the 1950s that carry two land-attack cruise missiles under their wings.

Kim Jong Il may promote son at NKorea party meet By HYUNG-JIN KIM, Associated Press Writer – Tue Sep 21, 11:18 am ET

SEOUL, South Korea – North Korea's ruling communist party has finally set a date for its biggest convention in decades, an apparent indication that the regime may be ready to give the aging leader's son a key position that will pave the way for his succession.Delegates to the ruling Workers' Party will meet in Pyongyang on Sept. 28 to select their supreme leadership body, the official Korean Central News Agency said Tuesday.The conference will be the party's first major gathering since the landmark 1980 congress where then 38-year-old Kim Jong Il made his own political debut with an appearance that confirmed he was in line to succeed his father, North Korea founder Kim Il Sung, as his nation's leader.Kim Jong Il took control of North Korea when his father died of heart failure in 1994 in what was communism's first hereditary transfer of power. Now 68 and reportedly in poor health two years after suffering a stroke, Kim is believed to be prepping his third and youngest son, Kim Jong Un, for a similar father-to-son power transition.But as with most things related to the so-called Hermit Kingdom nothing has been officially confirmed by North Korean officials. The regime is so secretive that outside observers often are left to read between the lines of vague state media dispatches and analyze satellite photos to divine what's going on.Analysts say Kim Jong Un may quietly be appointed to top party posts at next week's convention in a key step in the succession process that will not be announced in state media.I believe North Korea has decided to give the successor an official title but not to make it public to the outside world because publicizing the appointment could make Kim Jong Il a lame-duck leader, said Yang Moo-jin, a professor at the Seoul-based University of North Korean Studies.

Tuesday's state media report gave no explanation for why the much-anticipated convention, initially set for early September, had been delayed.Analysts say internal debate among the party elite over whether to publicize Kim Jong Un's political appointment to the outside world, as well as concern about recent devastation from flooding and a deadly typhoon, likely prompted the regime to postpone the nation's biggest political meeting in 30 years.Discussion over what economic reform the regime should announce during the party conference may also have contributed to the delay, said Kim Yong-hyun of Dongguk University.Little is known about Kim Jong Un, said to be in his late 20s and schooled in Switzerland. He has never been mentioned in state media, and there are no confirmed photos of him as an adult.He has two older brothers, Jong Nam and Jong Chol. But Kenji Fujimoto, who says he was Kim Jong Il's sushi chef for more than 10 years, wrote in a memoir that it was the youngest who was most like his father, ruthless and competitive even as a child.South Korean intelligence officers believe Pyongyang has launched a propaganda campaign promoting the son with songs and poems. He's already being hailed as the Young General and Our Commander, with soldiers and workers pledging allegiance to the son on his birthday in January, South Korean media have said, citing unidentified sources in North Korea.The process, however, is shrouded in secrecy, evidenced by the fact that South Korean officials didn't even know how to spell the son's name until last year.Earlier this week, former U.S. President Jimmy Carter said Chinese Premier Wen Jiaobao told him that Kim Jong Il disputed the prospective promotion of his youngest son as a false rumor — underscoring the difficulty of reading the isolated regime.I was amazed when he made that statement, Carter told The Associated Press in a phone interview Monday. He said that Kim Jong Il made a flat statement that his succession story was a false Western rumor.

Carter made a rare trip to Pyongyang last month to secure the release of an imprisoned American but didn't meet Kim, who was in China at the time.Next week, delegates are expected to elect new party leaders to fill spots left vacant for years. It's not clear which party position Kim Jong Un might take in what would be his first known official job. Yang said he's likely to be elected organizational secretary, the No. 2 party job that his father won in 1973 in his path toward becoming the leader. Kim Yong-hyun of Dongguk University said, however, the son was likely to take a working-level post since he is still so young.Keen attention is also focused on Kim Jong Il's only sister, Kim Kyong Hui, who in the past two years has been a frequent companion to the leader on field trips to army bases and factories. She currently serves as the political party's department chief for light industry.Her husband, Jang Song Thaek, has also been rising in stature. Jang was promoted in June to be vice chairman of the powerful National Defense Commission, making him the No. 2 official to Kim Jong Il on the regime's top state organ. The conference is being held amid preparations for the milestone 65th anniversary of the founding of the Workers' Party on Oct. 10, improving relations with Seoul, and attempts by diplomats from neighboring nations to revive dormant six-nation disarmament negotiations on North Korea's nuclear weapons program.North Korea walked away from the talks last year in protest over U.N. Security Council condemnation for launching a long-range rocket, widely seen as a test of its missile technology.
Associated Press writer Jean H. Lee in Seoul and Greg Bluestein in Atlanta contributed to this report.

EU-GLOBAL BANK TAX

Europe leaders urge bank tax to battle poverty
by Tim Witcher - SEPT 20,10 11PM


UNITED NATIONS (AFP) – European leaders stepped up demands for a global financial tax on Monday as they faced mounting calls for money to pay for the Millennium Goals battle to cut extreme poverty.President Nicolas Sarkozy of France and Spain's Prime Minister Jose Luis Zapatero said they would press for the new tax at international summits.The world's wealthy countries face growing pressure at the three day Millennium Development Goals (MDG) summit to contribute more to the drive to eradicate poverty and improve child and maternal health.African nations in particular are calling for more action and the West can expect little sympathy when the likes of Iran's President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad speak on Tuesday.UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon said the struggling effort to reach eight key development goals by 2015 could still be met if world leaders provide the necessary money and political will.The aims include cutting the more than one billion people living on less than a dollar a day, reducing by two-thirds the number of children who die before the age of five, seeking fairer trade, and spreading the Internet to the world's poor.While spectacular progress has been made in some areas, most experts say none of the goals will be reached by the target date. The international financial crisis has cut off badly needed funding.

Sarkozy said: We have no right to shelter behind the economic crisis as supposed grounds for doing less.He added: Finance has globalized, so why should we not ask finance to participate in stabilizing the world by taking a tax on each financial transaction.Sarkozy vowed to press for a global tax when France is head of the Group of 20 and Group of Eight countries next year.While all developed countries are in deficit, we must find new sources of financing for the struggle against poverty, for education and for the ending of the planet's big pandemics.Sarkozy also said that France would increase its payments to the UN fund on AIDS and malaria by 60 million euros a year to 360 million euros (470 million dollars).The Spanish prime minister also took up the bank tax campaign. We must launch a tax on financial transactions to complete the MDGs and my government has promised to defend them and to put them into practice. This will be at all international meetings.In opening the summit, the UN secretary general said that world leaders must send a strong message of hope.Ban said that progress has been made since 2000 in increasing school attendance, expanding access to clean water and controlling deadly diseases.We must protect these advances, many of which are still fragile. And the clock is ticking, with much more to do.Recovery from the economic crisis should not mean a return to the flawed and unjust path that got us into trouble in the first place.UN officials estimate that at least 120 billion dollars will have to be found over the next five years to hope to meet the eight goals. Aid groups, however, say much more will be needed and have expressed doubts about the political will to meet the 2000 goals.

Politicians have also indicated some doubts.

At a meeting on the summit sidelines, Norway's Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg said: We're on track not to reach any of the development goals. We need more finance and better strategies. If we are going to mobilize more money we have to make more sure to spend it more wisely.German Chancellor Angela Merkel also said at the meeting that not all the targets would be met in all countries by 2015.

Africa made increasingly strident criticism of wealthy nations.

Georges Rebelo Chukoti, Angola's secretary of state for external relations, said The fight against poverty cannot be won only with the holding of conferences and summits to negotiate more commitments to development.Overcoming hunger and poverty requires primarily that we implement the international commitments we have already made.
Nigeria's Health Minister It is important that our international partners meet their commitments today if we are to accelerate our progress towards meeting the MDGs by 2015.US President Barack Obama will make the keynote address to the summit on Wednesday, but US officials have warned against expecting significant new sums of money.

Unpopular BC sales tax deal upheld by court
– Fri Sep 17, 6:14 pm ET


VANCOUVER (Reuters) – British Columbia's unpopular agreement to merge its provincial sales tax with Canada's federal goods and services tax was legal, a judge ruled on Friday.The ruling rejected claims by opponents of the harmonized sales tax (HST) that the provincial government failed to get needed legislative approval to make the surprise deal with Ottawa last year.The province merged its 7 percent provincial sales tax with the federal 5 percent tax, creating a new 12 percent HST that took effect in July and generally follows Ottawa's rules on exemptions.Supporters say the new system will keep companies competitive with rivals in other provinces, such as Ontario, that have adopted an HST with Ottawa.But opponents say it shifts more of the tax burden to consumers and small businesses, and the debate has gutted the popularity of British Columbia Premier Gordon Campbell and his center-right Liberal Party.Voters will decide whether to repeal the tax in a referendum scheduled for next year.In upholding the tax agreement's constitutionality, British Columbia Supreme Court Justice Robert Bauman said he was not passing judgment on the HST's merits.That burden of proof is for others to bear and the electorate to test, he wrote.Campbell faces a party leadership review in November. He says he plans to stay on, but there have been calls from some Liberal supporters for him to step down.

Eurozone rescue fund gets top rating-The top rating will allow the fund to borrow less expensively, should a eurozone country need a loan (Photo: Alessandro Marotta)ANDREW WILLIS 20.09.2010 @ 17:34 CET

EUOBSERVER / BRUSSELS - A eurozone rescue fund set up in May at the height of the bloc's escalating fiscal crisis has received the best possible rating from the world's three leading agencies. The news on Monday (20 September) that Fitch, Moody's and Standard & Poor's have all awarded the European Financial Stability Facility (EFSF) triple-A status comes at a time of resurging doubts in a number of peripheral member states. Speaking in Tallinn, EU economy commissioner Olli Rehn said he was unconcerned by rising bond yields in Ireland, sparked by a recent report from UK bank Barclays Capital that Dublin could be forced to seek external aid. I have full confidence in Ireland and its capacity to act with determination to complete the financial repair and the necessary restructuring of the banking and financial sector, he told journalists. The Irish government has flatly denied market rumours it is set to make an application to the EFSF, blaming the rising borrowing costs on a misinterpretation of the Barclays report.Bond yields continued to rise on Monday however, with the country's central bank governor, Patrick Honohan, warning the country may not be able to meet its commitment to cut the budgetary deficit to under three percent of GDP by 2014.Some explicit reprogramming of the budgetary profile for the coming years is clearly necessary soon if debt dynamics are to be convincingly convergent, he said.The suggestion that Ireland be given more time met with a frosty reception in Brussels. This is not about sympathies, this is not about clemency, you will not find any of these terms in my speaking points, the commission's economy spokesman said at a daily news conference. This is about commitments that Ireland has taken.

The EU executive body has also been quick to deny reports in Greek media that a three-year aid package to Greece might be extended. Athens secured a loan of €110 billion from the EU and IMF on 2 May, although some question the centre-left government's ability to return to capital markets when the aid runs out. The big question is whether there will be a restructuring of Greece's debt, Carsten Brzeski, a senior economist with Dutch bank ING told this website The jury is still out, he added, indicating that the uncertainty was contributing to the country's high borrowing costs. Monday's decision to award the EFSF with the top credit rating will enable it to make raise money less expensively, should a eurozone government call for financial assistance.The €440 billion facility will operate as a special purpose vehicle, issuing bonds on the market to raise funds as necessary, backed by euro area member states.The vehicle is incorporated in Luxembourg under Luxembourgish law, with the German Debt Management Office likely to play a role in any debt issuances.A further €60 billion can be issued by the commission, backed by the EU budget, with the IMF pledging a further €250 billion as part of a shock-and-awe bailout package agreed by EU member states in the early hours of 11 May.

Ashton favours Lex building for new headquarters
ANDREW RETTMAN 20.09.2010 @ 17:26 CET


EUOBSERVER / BRUSSELS - EU foreign relations chief Catherine Ashton is keen to house her new diplomatic corps in the so-called Lex building on Rue de la Loi in the EU quarter in Brussels.The change of mind comes after months of talks with Belgium's Axa insurance group on the potential lease of its Triangle building, a few hundred metres up the road from Lex on the Schuman roundabout.With two months left to go to the EEAS' grand opening, Ms Ashton has switched from the Triangle to the Lex building as her preferred new home (Photo: Sister Ray)Lex would be much cheaper than the €10-million-a-year Axa deal because the EU Council effectively owns the block and could lease it to the European External Action Service (EEAS) on sweetheart terms, a contact in the EU institutions said. Lex also has higher security specifications than the Triangle, the contact added.The current home of the European Commission's foreign relations department (Relex), the Charlemagne building on Rue de le Loi, has been discarded as an option partly for image reasons.People would see it [the EEAS] as a kind of Relex-plus. But it's a unique, stand-alone institution, the contact said.Time is ticking for Ms Ashton's self-imposed deadline to get the EEAS up and running by 1 December.The Axa negotiators received the surprise news just last Thursday (16 September) at an advanced stage in the negotiations. And it is unclear whether senior EU Council management will back the Lex idea.

Lex currently houses Council translators and lawyers. Member States would then have to give the Council an increased budget to enable it to rent accommodation for its translators. At present, the order of the day is budget cuts not increases, a source in the EU Council administration said. Our management admits that they were asked to entertain the theoretical possibility, but that they had replied in no uncertain terms that they did not want to give up the Lex building.The Brussels-based architects' firm, Jaspers-Eyers & Partners, built Lex between 2003 and 2006 for Belgian bank Dexia and the Belgian real-estate firm Immobel, which later sold the building to the EU.Covering 15 floors and 84,674 square metres, the glass-fronted structure is said to be liked by Ms Ashton for its modern, open-plan office design and conference facilities. The building also has an underground tunnel connecting it to the commission's Berlaymont headquarters across the road and the main EU Council premises, the Justus Lipsius building, next door. With senior EEAS personnel cleared to have access to documents up to EU TOP SECRET level, security is a major concern.
Your keyboard, your computer monitor, all give off radiation. I could sit across the street, 500 metres away, and with the right equipment I could read what's on your screen and what is being typed,a security specialist in the EU Council said.

EU seeks stress-resistant intelligence officer
ANDREW RETTMAN 20.09.2010 @ 09:27 CET


EUOBSERVER / BRUSSELS - The EU is hiring three junior experts to join its intelligence-sharing bureau, the Joint Situation Centre (SitCen), with the job descriptions shedding some light onto the secretive body's work.The posts - a Deployable Security Information Officer, an Open Source Intelligence Analyst and a Security Information Officer - are to be filled at the same time as the appointment of a new SitCen director. The deadline for applications closed last Friday (16 September).The job advertisements, seen by EUobserver, were circulated to EU institutions and member states' foreign ministries in recent weeks, but were not made available to the general public.The deployable officer, according to the official notice, is to travel to potential crisis or conflict areas to overtly gather political and security information to support early crisis management decisions and to supplement information and assessments from other sources.The candidate is to have a diplomatic, intelligence or media background and to have experience in information collection and evaluation in areas with a high degree of tension.The right man or woman must also be prepared to travel extensively to potential crisis areas and to do so at short notice and to be physically fit and stress-resistant. Able to withstand potentially physically and psychologically harsh working environment.

The bulk of SitCen's work is drafting security reports out of its 100-person-strong office in the EU quarter in Brussels. EU diplomats say there is no political appetite among member states to create a genuine European Intelligence Service which carries out covert operations.But SitCen officers do travel to hotspots to help EU delegations carry out research. When the earthquake struck in Haiti earlier this year, the then SitCen director, William Shapcott, personally accompanied EU foreign relations chief Catherine Ashton to the Caribbean country to seek information.The job advertisement for the new SitCen director also mentions that the candidate must be fit and ready to travel to areas of crisis.Out of the other two junior jobs up for grabs, the open source analyst is to follow up on open and confidential sources of information relating to the political and security situation in areas where the EU has launched a CSDP [Common Security and Defence Policy] mission or may be considering doing so.The new Security Information Officer will focus on Asia and will do topical Internet research in response to requests for information. The ideal candidate is to speak Urdu, Persian, Russian or Mandarin.

Obama: Military Strike on Iran Not Ideal
by Elad Benari SEPT 21,10


US President Barack Obama said on Monday that while Iran having a nuclear weapon would be a real problem, he did not think that military action by Israel or the United States against the Islamic Republic was the ideal way to solve the crisis, according to a Reuters report.During a town-hall style meeting on CNBC, Obama said: We continue to be open to diplomatic solutions to resolve this. We don't think that a war between Israel and Iran or military options would be the ideal way to solve this problem. But we are keeping all our options on the table.Obama plans to use his address to the United Nations General Assembly on Thursday to tell Iran that the door is open to better relations with the international community, as long as it can demonstrate the peaceful intent of its nuclear program. Obama will stress during his speech that if Iran fails to meet its international obligations, the cost of its uranium enrichment program will escalate.Both the US and the UN Security Council have tightened their sanctions on Iran in recent months.

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has continuously verbally attacked both Israel and the US. In an interview he gave to the Al-Jazeera network several weeks ago, Ahmadinejad said that Israel is too weak to attack Iran's nuclear facilities and dismissed the possibility of a US strike on Iran's nuclear facilities, saying that America is not interested in sparking a military confrontation. There are no logical reasons for the United States to carry out such an act. Do you believe an army that has been defeated by a small army in Iraq can enter into a war with a large and well trained army like the Iranian army? Ahmadinejad has offered the US his country’s friendship, saying that the friendship of Iran is much better than its hostility.

White House deputy national security adviser Ben Rhodes told reporters on Monday that the door is open to [Iran] having a better relationship with the United States and with the international community. However, in order to walk through that door, Iran is going to have to demonstrate its commitment to show its peaceful intent around its nuclear program, and meet its obligations to the international community.
Ahmadinejad is currently in New York to take part in the General Assembly, and conducted a meeting with UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon on Sunday. During the meeting, Ban urged the Iranian President to enter negotiations regarding its nuclear program.President Shimon Peres, who is also currently in New York, criticized Ahmedinjad after his speech to the General Assembly on Sunday. Peres told reporters that Ahmadinejad calls for our destruction, and supplies arms to every terrorist organization in the Middle East.(IsraelNationalNews.com)

Israel FM clarifies land swap proposal
– Mon Sep 20, 9:48 am ET


PRAGUE (AFP) – Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman said in Prague on Monday that his plan to push for swapping territories for people in peace talks with Palestinians was his personal view, not his government's position.On Sunday, Lieberman proposed the Palestinians should take his country's 1.3 million Arabs and let Israel keep its West Bank settlements instead of seeking a land for peace solution.I want to stress it's my personal view. It's not the official position of our government, he said on Monday after meeting his Czech counterpart Karel Schwarzenberg, whose country is one of Israel's staunchest allies.Israeli and Palestinian leaders this month renewed direct peace talks after a gap of nearly two years and have pledged to seek agreement within 12 months.The phrase land for peace refers to the concept of Israel withdrawing from the Palestinian territories it occupied in the 1967 Middle East war in return for an end to the drawn-out conflict.

I don't think the idea that we will establish a homogeneous Palestinian state without one Jew and that Israel will become a bi-national state with more than 20 percent of minorities can be a real, stable, long-term solution, Lieberman added in Prague.The maverick nationalist has campaigned in the past for Israel's Arab citizens to be stripped of their nationality unless they take an oath of allegiance to the Jewish state.Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says any treaty must include recognition of Israel as a Jewish state.The Palestinians oppose the demand, fearing that it could prejudge the future of refugees seeking to return to old homes now in Israel.

Report: Netanyahu Pushes Referendum on Peace Deal
by Maayana Miskin SEPT 20,10

http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/139691

Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu is backing a call for a national referendum on any final agreement between Israel and the Palestinian Authority regarding Judea and Samaria, according to Channel 2 news.MK Ofir Akunis (Likud), a close associate of Netanyahu's, has written up a proposed law that would require a referendum. Netanyahu reportedly saw the bill on Friday and gave it his full support.Earlier in the month Netanyahu said that he had not ruled out the possibility of a national referendum if Israel and the PA were to succeed in reaching an agreement within a year.Political analysts suggested that the law could help Netanyahu keep his coalition together by reassuring the political Right that no territories will be ceded without the people's approval.Netanyahu has met twice with PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas and with senior United States diplomats. Talks between Netanyahu and Abbas focused on core issues such as the borders of a potential PA state in Judea and Samaria and the status of Jerusalem. Netanyahu's conditions, security and recognizing Israel as a Jewish state, were not considered core issues.Abbas has threatened to leave the talks over the resumption of construction for Jews in Judea and Samaria on September 26. He had demanded a building freeze before starting talks. Netanyahu unilaterally froze building for Israeli families in the region for 10 months in an unprecedented move aimed at bringing the PA to the negotiating table, however the PA waited until the freeze was about to end to use its continuation as a condition for continuing the fledgling talks.(Israel National News.com)

Attempt Made to Reconcile Palestinian Factions
by Elad Benari SEPT 21,10


The Arab daily al-Hayat has reported that Egyptian intelligence chief Omar Suleiman met with Hamas leader Khaled Mashaal in Saudi Arabia this month. The reason for the meeting was an attempt to achieve reconciliation between the Palestinian factions.

Hamas and Fatah, the two main Palestinian parties, have been in conflict ever since Hamas won the 2006 legislative election. The conflict escalated when Hamas violently took control over the Gaza Strip from Fatah in 2007, and has continued since. Fatah continues to rule over Judea and Samaria, but clashes between the factions have occurred in both regions. All reconciliation talks have thus far been unsuccessful.
Hamas has so far rejected a pact proposed by Egypt to end the feuding with Fatah. While Fatah, which is ruled by PA President Mahmoud Abbas, signed the pact in October of 2009, Hamas refused and demanded guarantees that it would be recognized and that no embargo would be imposed on it should it win a future election.A senior Egyptian source was quoted in al-Hayat as saying: The deadlock over the reconciliation dossier does not benefit Hamas and will reflect negatively on it as the division (between factions) persists.The source added that Gaza could become a rebellious region and that Egypt would be ready to host fresh reconciliation talks as soon as Hamas is ready to sign the pact.According to the report, Suleiman spoke with Mashaal in Mecca during his official visit to Saudi Arabia, where he met King Abdullah to brief him on the first round of peace talks.

On Sunday it was reported that the PA seeks to achieve control over crossings between Gaza and the southern Negev. PA minister Hussein A-Sheikh told the Bethlehem-based Maan news service that he was confident that the Kerem Shalom crossing in southern Gaza would be transferred to PA control within the coming weeks. The PA will use its control to open the door widely... our goal of ending the siege will be achieved,he declared.Hamas responded to A-Sheikh's statements and similar reports in the Israeli media by accusing the PA of attempting a coup. A Hamas spokesman said that PA control of Gaza crossings would prove that the PA is working with Israel to regain control of the region, he accused.As direct talks between Israel and the PA continue, the Hamas-Fatah split raises a question mark over the ability of Abbas to enforce any agreement reached with Israel. Hamas has refused to recognize any agreements signed between Israel and the PA.It is as yet unknown how a possible Hamas-Fatah reconciliation could affect the talks.(IsraelNationalNews.com)

Iran, Lebanon Walk Out on Peres Friendship Speech
by Maayana Miskin SEPT 20,10


President Shimon Peres addressed the United Nations General Assembly on Monday, saying the Middle East has room for every person, every nation, every religion... there is enough room for friendship in the Middle East.Representatives from Iran and Lebanon walked out as he took the podium, giving the lie to his words.Mentioning the Israel-Palestinian Authority negotiations, Peres said, We are now negotiating... in order to realize the two-state solution: A Jewish state – Israel, and an Arab state – Palestine. There is no other peaceful alternative, and I believe that we shall succeed.Israel is willing to begin negotiations with Syria as well, he added. Israel-Syria talks could start right away, he declared.Peres touted science as key to creating a better future. Today, science, creativity and knowledge have replaced land as the source of wealth... Science is global, borderless. Armies can't conquer it, he said.He noted Israeli innovations and the high number of scientists in Israel, adding that, Our path is available to everyone. Our experience is replicable. Israel is willing to share its knowledge even with countries which currently have refused diplomatic ties with the Jewish state, he said.

Peres criticized Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmedinjad, who spoke Sunday, after his speech. He told reporters that Ahmadinejad calls for our destruction, and supplies arms to every terrorist organization in the Middle East.Peres was snubbed by Muslim leaders on Sunday as well, when Turkish President Abdallah Gul cancelled a planned meeting with the Israeli president, ostensibly due to a busy schedule. Peres told journalists that Gul had cancelled the meeting after Peres refused to apologize for an incident in which IDF soldiers opened fire on Turkish pro-terror activists as the latter attacked them with knives and crowbars and killed nine. The skirmish took place aboard the Mavi Marmara, a ship in the flotilla that aimed to break the Israeli naval blockade on Hamas in May of this year..If relations between Israel and Turkey have changed for the worse, it was Turkey's decision, Peres said.(IsraelNationalNews.com)

1 missing in flooding as rain pounds Texas coast By PAUL J. WEBER, Associated Press Writer - SEPT 20,10

SAN ANTONIO – Relentless rainfall brought partly from Hurricane Karl caused widespread problems along the Texas coast on Monday, leaving at least one person missing in high floodwaters, schools closed and raw sewage gushing from an overwhelmed city sewer system.One driver in Corpus Christi dialed 911 while being swept away in a swollen creek, but the call went dead before authorities could located the caller. Near the Texas-Mexico border, emergency crews went door-to-door in some Cameron County neighborhoods flooded with 2 to 3 feet of water, asking families if they wanted help out.There were no evacuation orders Monday, but officials had helped at least 30 people to safety, Cameron County emergency management coordinator Johnny Cavazos said.You want out or you want to stay? a rescue worker with Cavazos hollered to a family.More than 7 inches of rain was reported over a 24-hour period through early Monday in Corpus Christi and the Rio Grande Valley, which is enduring yet another soaking after being lashed by Hurricane Alex and two other tropical systems.Any rain that falls now will go directly into the runoff, National Weather Service meteorologist Joel Veeneman said. There's no way for the ground to absorb anymore.Karl made landfall on Mexico's Gulf Coast on Friday, soaking Veracruz, Puebla and Tabasco states in the south-central part of the country. At least 12 people in the country have been killed.

The rainfall in Texas wasn't directly from Karl but that the storm's moisture helped make for a perfect combination, Veeneman said.Corpus Christi waded through the worst of the downpour. Even more showers were on the way, expected to continue at least through Wednesday and exacerbate flooding that had already triggered a small number of evacuations. Oso Creek was at least 8 feet above flood stage, and forecasters predicted it could reach record-breaking heights.It was in Oso Creek where the missing driver called for help after the rushing water picked up his small car, Coast Guard Lt. Mary Arvidson said. By late Monday, Arvidson said the Coast Guard had suspended their search while local crews continued looking.The missing driver was at least the second distress call for the Coast Guard since rain began pounding the Texas shoreline this weekend. Crews also rescued two boaters Sunday whose 18-foot skiff took on too much water near Port O'Connor.Nearly a dozen school districts canceled classes Monday as the rain made bus routes on flooded streets impassable, and a flash flood watch was in effect through Monday night for 11 counties off the Texas coast.Pressure from heavy rains on an aging sewer system in Corpus Christi led to another problem: more than 100,000 gallons of raw sewage that overflowed from a manhole. City officials said the heavy rain diluted the gushing sewage enough to eliminate any risk of health hazards.Some residents living near the treatment plant described it differently.This is just disgusting, homeowner Denise Bates told the Corpus Christi Caller-Times. We've actually seen feces floating by.Farther out in Nueces County, residents in the impoverished area were stranded by flooding in their slapdash communities that lack drainage and other basic infrastructure. About 60 homes in the same area were flooded after a downpour in July, said Lionel Lopez, a local advocate for the residents.Monday's flooding was three times as worse, Lopez said.People can't get out, and we can't get in to help them, he said. All you see is cars on the side of the road, or the middle of the road.Earlier this month, flooding caused by remnants of Tropical Storm Hermine killed at least eight people, including seven in Texas.

Hurricane Igor heads north after battering Bermuda By Sam Strangeways and Ruth O'Kelly Lynch – Mon Sep 20, 5:58 pm ET

HAMILTON (Reuters) – Hurricane Igor barreled north on Monday on a path expected to take it near Newfoundland and energy interests off eastern Canada, after battering Bermuda with heavy winds, waves and rain that caused damage but no casualties.The Canadian Hurricane Center issued tropical storm warnings for the coast of Newfoundland, a region that is home to Canada's three major offshore oil projects.
North Atlantic Refining, operator of a 115,000 barrel-per-day oil refinery in Come-by-Chance, Newfoundland, said it was keeping a close eye on Igor.Husky Energy Inc said it was removing some staff from offshore operations in Newfoundland and Labrador but Suncor Energy Inc said it expected to continue offshore activities despite the storm's expected brush with the area on Tuesday.Exxon Mobil Corp said it did not expect its Hibernia platform in offshore Newfoundland, which was designed to withstand extreme weather, to be affected by Igor.The U.S. National Hurricane Center said the core of the large Category 1 hurricane, packing maximum sustained winds near 75 miles per hour, was about 725 miles southwest of Cape Race, Newfoundland, at 5 p.m. EDT.Overnight, Bermuda experienced several hours of lashing wind, waves and rain. Residents of the British island territory reported uprooted trees, flying debris, widespread power outages, some flooding of streets and homes, and boats torn from moorings. Bermuda has a population of more than 67,000 people.Hurricane-force winds extended about 90 miles from Igor's core. The U.S. East Coast would experience rough surf and a stiff breeze, the Miami-based hurricane center said.The hurricane was moving northeast at 28 miles per hour. It was expected to stay on that track, away from the U.S. coast, through late Tuesday.

DODGED A BULLET

Official damage assessments were being carried out in Bermuda but the island chain, a popular tourist resort and global insurance hub, appeared to have suffered far less damage from Igor than it did from Hurricane Fabian in 2003.Public Safety Minister David Burch said Bermuda seems to have dodged a bullet in a significant way.
Fabian killed four people and caused millions of dollars of damage.There's no injuries, no major damage, Burch told the Royal Gazette newspaper. There was some minor criminal activity in the country, breaking and entering. You expect it to happen but I'm surprised that anyone in their right mind would be out in that weather.East of Igor, Tropical Storm Julia was breaking up on Monday and posed no threat to land.The hurricane center said there was a high chance of a new tropical cyclone developing west of the Cape Verde Islands in the eastern Atlantic, as the 2010 Atlantic hurricane season continued this year's active pace.In Mexico over the weekend, the remnants of Hurricane Karl dissipated over the mountains of south central Mexico, after killing at least 12 people, emergency workers said.Karl apparently spared Mexican oil operations from major damage after sweeping through the Bay of Campeche, where Mexico produces more than two-thirds of its 2.55 million barrels per day of crude output.

Taiwan clear up begins after typhoon flooding
– Mon Sep 20, 11:27 am ET


TAIPEI (AFP) – Schools and offices were closed in typhoon-hit parts of Taiwan on Monday as residents started clearing up after their homes were flooded by the storm which moved on to pummel southern China.Typhoon Fanapi, the strongest to hit the region this year with gusts of up to 220 kilometres (138 miles) per hour, made landfall on the east coast on Sunday and dumped up to 1,000 millimetres (39 inches) of rain in the south.The typhoon weakened as it swept into the southern Chinese provinces of Fujian and Guangdong Monday, but was still packing winds of 125 kilometres (75 miles) an hour, the government's flood headquarters and state media said.It is possible that Fanapi will sweep across Guangdong province and bring serious flooding and geological disasters to the region, the provincial flood headquarters warned.Local authorities ordered tens of thousands of fishermen from the two provinces to bring their boats to safe harbours.The storm was inching closer to Hong Kong, meteorologists said, and was expected to come within 100 kilometres north of the territory overnight, bringing heavy rains and strong winds.In Taiwan, television images showed the military using amphibious vehicles to rescue citizens trapped by flash flooding in Kaohsiung, the island's second-biggest city.More than 100 people were injured, with some blown over by gales, knocked from motorcycles or hit by flying debris, according to the National Fire Agency.

Some schools and offices in Kaohsiung and neighbouring areas were closed Monday as the floods gradually subsided and soldiers were deployed to help residents clear up.The typhoon left more than 70,000 homes without power and around 15,000 others without water, officials said.This was the worst flooding we've experienced in my life. It was even worse than the one caused last year by Typhoon Morakot, one man told cable news network TVBS.Morakot devastated southern Taiwan just over a year ago, leaving more than 700 people dead or missing in one of the island's worst natural disasters.Although Taiwan's Central Weather Bureau has removed the warning against the powerful storm, it warned of further downpours in the days ahead.
President Ma Ying-jeou, who was accused of responding slowly to the Morakot disaster, moved quickly to react to Fanapi and was filmed wading through knee-deep waters in the coastal town of Linpien.Flooding from Fanapi caused havoc at a petrochemical complex in the Kaohsiung area, halting production at more than 10 factories and causing an estimated two billion Taiwan dollars (63.1 million US) damage.Crop damage across the island was expected to reach more than 1.6 billion Taiwan dollars, according to the Council of Agriculture.

Dollar trades in tight range before Fed meeting
– Mon Sep 20, 3:24 pm ET


NEW YORK – The dollar traded in a tight range Monday against the euro and yen ahead of a key meeting of Federal Reserve policymakers that could have broad implications for the dollar's value.The Fed committee meets Tuesday and the dollar often reacts sharply to any policy changes on interest rates or revisions in the Fed's outlook for the economy.In late afternoon trading in New York, the euro rose to $1.3062 from $1.3043 late Friday. The dollar edged lower to 85.77 yen from 85.79 yen.If the central bank on Tuesday signals that it will start buying up Treasurys to help support the economy, the dollar could tumble broadly, MF Global analyst Jessica Hoversen said.Such a move by the Fed would likely drive interest rates lower, which tends to weigh on the dollar.Most analysts do not expect the central bank to announce the start of such a program Tuesday, however. Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke had said late last month that the economy would have to decline significantly to prod the Fed into further action.Worries that the Fed will do more to bring down rates have already driven the dollar down by more than 2 percent since late August against a group of six actively traded currencies.Last week, concerns about weak U.S. growth and expectations of a move by the Fed helped drive the dollar to a 15-year low of 82.88 yen, just before the Bank of Japan intervened in currency markets to weaken the yen. The dollar has largely held on to its gains versus the Japanese currency since Japan's intervention.The euro had hit a five-week high of $1.3159 in Friday's trading following Japan's move.In other trading Monday, the British pound fell to $1.5545 from $1.5625 while the dollar slipped to 1.0287 Canadian dollars from 1.0311 Canadian dollars and to 1.0061 Swiss francs from 1.0102 Swiss francs.

Peres resists Gul's call for an apology on raid By JOHN HEILPRIN, Associated Press Writer - SEPT 20,10

UNITED NATIONS – A planned meeting between Israeli President Shimon Peres and his Turkish counterpart was scrapped because of the Israeli leader's refusal to apologize for the deadly commando raid on a Turkish-led flotilla that tried to breach Israel's blockade of the Gaza Strip, Israeli officials said Monday.In the latest bid to repair Israel's relations with its only Muslim ally in the region, Peres told reporters he had agreed to join Turkish President Abdullah Gul at the Clinton Global Initiative in New York, then accepted Gul's invitation to meet on the sidelines. But Israeli officials said Gul then set unacceptable conditions for the meeting.Gul on Monday denied that any such meeting had ever been planned. That is not true, the Turkish president told The Associated Press. There was never a meeting scheduled between us.A report by Turkey's state-run Anatolia news agency quoted Gul as telling reporters in New York on Sunday that he would not meet with Peres because of a scheduling problem. Some reports had suggested that the two men would meet in a sign of a thaw in strained relations between the two formerly close allies.Relations between the two countries have been deteriorating and hit a low point after the May raid in which nine people, including eight Turks and a Turkish-American, were killed when Israeli commandos boarded a Turkish ferry that was part of the aid flotilla heading to Gaza. Turkey has demanded that an Israeli apology for the raid and compensation for the victims' families.

Peres told reporters that he found Turkey's conditions for a meeting with Gul to be unacceptable.I got some conditions which made this meeting in my judgment not a positive one, Peres told reporters as the U.N. General Assembly's Millennium Development Goals summit was getting under way.Now we didn't change our attitude to Turkey. We were friends, we remain friends. Maybe Turkey changed her mind, and that's for the Turks to decide, Peres said. We don't intend to worsen the situation. Neither can we submit to preconditions which are totally unacceptable.Peres did not elaborate on the preconditions. But senior Israeli officials confirmed that Gul wanted Israel to publicly apologize for the flotilla raid.The Turks came with the demands that could not be met ..., said Israel's U.N. Ambassador Meron Reuben. The demands included that we apologize for the flotilla incident, he said.Investigators from a U.N. human rights inquiry on the May 31 flotilla attack have been interviewing witnesses, including an Israeli Knesset member. Israel refused to cooperate with that probe and accused the U.N. Human Rights Council of bias.But it is cooperating with a separate U.N. panel ordered by Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon. That panel, led by New Zealand's ex-Prime Minister Geoffrey Palmer and Colombia's ex-President Alvaro Uribe, is looking into legal issues surrounding the incident.
Israeli commandos said they opened fire in self-defense after meeting what they called unexpected resistance when boarded the ferry carrying aid supplies to Gaza.

An international outcry resulted, forcing Israel to ease its blockade of Hamas-ruled Gaza. Israel and Egypt imposed the blockade in June 2007 after Hamas militants took control of the area.Israel's military completed its own investigation, which found that its intelligence failed to predict the violent response but its troops reacted properly.Later Monday, Peres met privately with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas. In a brief appearance before reporters, neither leader would discuss particulars about the recently renewed Mideast peace talks. The key issue of whether Israel will extend a partial ban on settlement building in the West Bank, territory the Palestinians want for a future state, was not addressed by either man publicly.On Tuesday, Peres will appear at a roundtable discussion presented by the Clinton Global Initiative with Palestinian Prime Minister Salam Fayyad and Bahrain's crown prince, Sheik Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa. Bahrain and Israel have no formal relations. Former President Bill Clinton will moderate.

Israeli minister: Palestinians need to compromise By DAN PERRY, Associated Press Writer – Mon Sep 20, 8:04 pm ET

JERUSALEM – With crisis looming for recently restarted Mideast peace talks, Israel's deputy prime minister on Monday urged the Palestinians to relax their demand that a freeze on new Jewish settlement construction be extended past its planned weekend expiration. Palestinian officials quickly rejected the idea, leaving a deadlock in place.In order to succeed in these negotiations both parties need to understand that (neither side) can come out of them with all that they wanted, said Dan Meridor, describing the dispute as an indicator of Palestinian good faith on broader issues. The first test for spirit of compromise on both sides is this issue of moratorium. If they say no compromise it's a bad sign.Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas and other top officials have repeatedly said that if Israel resumes settlement construction in the West Bank they will walk away from the talks, which resumed this month under U.S. aegis. Responding to Meridor's comments, Palestinian spokesman Husam Zomlot said that position remained unchanged.Flexibility and creativity do not apply on illegality, he told The Associated Press. If we are unable — and with us the entire world — to persuade Israel to only freeze its illegal settlement expansion, how do we embark on a process that should discuss the dismantling of settlements and the ending of the occupation? Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday called on the Palestinians not to impose conditions for the talks.I want to give these talks a chance to succeed. And I very much hope that President Abbas will have the same attitude, he told a group of American Jewish leaders. I expect him to sit down with me even when we disagree, and to work with me through those disagreements in a sincere effort to forge a historic compromise, which I believe is possible.Speaking with foreign correspondents, Meridor said that if the current negotiations on a final peace settlement broke down, there was an alternative: a bottom-up approach in which the existing Palestinian Authority — ruling a collection of autonomous zones established in the 1990s throughout the West Bank — could be extended in various ways, with other authorities, jurisdictions and powers.

The Palestinians oppose anything less than a full settlement, concerned that a partial deal that eases pressure on Israel would perpetuate a situation that falls far short of their expectations — for example, by not including a sharing of Jerusalem, the city both sides want for a capital.Meridor noted that the Palestinians rejected a far-reaching 2008 offer from Netanyahu's more dovish predecessor, Ehud Olmert.On Sunday, Olmert gave his most detailed description yet of that peace offer, saying he proposed a Palestinian state on more than 90 percent of the West Bank, with land swaps to make up for any land Israel annexed. The West Bank and Gaza — now ruled by the Islamist Hamas movement, which opposes the peace talks — were to be linked with a passage through Israeli territory.Olmert said the Palestinians were to have a capital in the Arab neighborhoods of east Jerusalem, and the coveted Old City, with its holy sites, was to be governed jointly by Israel, the Palestinians, Jordan, Saudi Arabia and the United States. He also said Israel would have recognized the suffering of Palestinian refugees who lost their homes in the fighting around Israel's creation and would have agreed to repatriate a small number.

Although Netanyahu is widely seen as unlikely to repeat such an offer, he did part ways with his longtime ideology by formally accepting the idea of a Palestinian state soon after taking office in 2009; in November of that year, under intense U.S. pressure, he also halted most settlement construction, saying he would keep the measure in place for 10 months, a period that expires Sunday.Under the so-called moratorium, Israel refrained from new housing starts in the settlements, but several thousand units already being built were allowed to continue. While the measure does not apply to Jewish neighborhoods in east Jerusalem, where the Palestinians want to locate their capital, there has been a de facto halt to new construction there as well.The Palestinians want the moratorium to stay in place and the United States has urged Israel to comply, at least for a period. But members of Netanyahu's Likud Party and key partners in his government oppose this, meaning the premier would likely face coalition trouble if he gave in.Meridor said he had proposed that Israel resume building in only those parts of the West Bank that might remain in Israeli hands under a future deal — excluding, for example, most settlements deep inside the territory.In New York, the European Union's foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton urged Israel to extend the moratorium.There is a need to extend the moratorium on settlements and, along with everybody else, the EU has called for Israel to do that in order that the talks can continue, Ashton told reporters after meeting Monday with U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton. And I hope that they will be able to do that very soon.On Tuesday, Clinton and Ashcroft will be taking part in a meeting of the Quartet of Mideast peacemakers — the EU, U.S., U.N. and Russia — on the sidelines of the U.N. General Assembly. In a reflection of the potential for a showdown, right-wing lawmakers announced they would be holding a celebration on Sunday in the West Bank settlement of Revava. Danny Danon, a deputy speaker of Israel's parliament from Netanyahu's Likud party, issued a statement saying that thousands of Likud supporters would rally at the site and bulldozers and cement trucks (would) begin work on a new neighborhood. When asked, Israeli spokesman Mark Regev had no comment on the Danon initiative.

British Government to Seize All Paychecks Paul Joseph Watson & Alex Jones
Infowars.com September 20, 2010


Forget big government – the same elite whose policies caused the financial collapse are now ready to launch the next phase of their fascist takeover of the economy – by forcing businesses to send employee paychecks straight to the government, who would then deduct the appropriate tax before the employee receives their wage, as the statist cancer of collectivism grows.The proposal represents another hammer blow to financial privacy, as the establishment moves towards a total cashless society where every transaction is tracked, traced and controlled by the authorities.The UK’s tax collection agency is putting forth a proposal that all employers send employee paychecks to the government, after which the government would deduct what it deems as the appropriate tax and the pay the employee’s by bank transfer, reports CNBC.

The system would be run by the same organization, Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs (HMRC), that has become notorious for its botched handling of data and incorrect tax calculations which have forced people to spend months and even years trying to claim back unfairly claimed money seized by the taxman.But this story is about far more than the threat of mere bureaucracy or bumbling incompetence – this is about the system exploiting the economic crisis it caused as a pretext to completely dominate and control our lives.This is about the state handing itself the power to arbitrarily raise taxes to any level it desires and then automatically seizing the money with no chance of redress or petition on behalf of the taxpayer.Allied to the proposal will be a new program that will force middle-class families to take government lie detector tests, which are notoriously unreliable and inadmissible in court, as part of intrusive tax investigations into their financial affairs.Prime Minister David Cameron and his side-kick Nick Clegg’s promise to deconstruct the Big Brother state in Britain has proven to be completely fraudulent. This is Big Brother on steroids, and it mimics a myriad of other programs on both sides of the pond that are being enforced as part of the same move towards total regulation and control over every aspect of our existence.

- Local tax authorities such as Pennsylvania telling residents we know where you live and threatening to use satellite imaging technology to track them down for claimed back taxes.

- So-called smart-meters being introduced by law to allow utility companies and the government to regulate energy consumption remotely.

- Government plans to dictate what kind of household appliances people are allowed to own and what kind of light bulbs we can use.

- Fees and restrictions on garage sales and any kind of independent, local community-driven economic activity.

- Legislation aimed at preventing people from sharing, trading, or selling homegrown food, as part of a total Homeland Security takeover of all U.S. food and U.S. farms.

Every new assault the state launches against us is focused around increasing our dependence on Big Brother and making us destitute and unable to survive without welfare.

People in the United Kingdom and the United States need to understand that their governments are malevolent and that their primary purpose is to obliterate the middle class by forcing them to become dependent on the state. As the cost of living soars, as tax hikes go through the roof, and as austerity fascism starts to bite, governments are now moving to prevent people from becoming self-sufficient, dashing the only hope of avoiding poverty for many.Allied with the march of green fascism, the economic crisis has been ruthlessly exploited by the elite to empower the state to wholly subjugate the people under the thumb of big government. Every step they take is about enriching themselves politically and financially, while ensuring our only recourse is to beg for handouts in return for allowing ourselves to become slaves whose every action is controlled, catalogued, judged and punished by our new masters on the global plantation.Paul Joseph Watson is the editor and writer for Prison Planet.com. He is the author of Order Out Of Chaos. Watson is also a fill-in host for The Alex Jones Show. Watson has been interviewed by many publications and radio shows, including Vanity Fair and Coast to Coast AM, America’s most listened to late night talk show.

Global Warming Alarmist Calls For Eco-Gulags To Re-Educate Climate Deniers
Paul Joseph Watson Infowars.com September 20, 2010


A Finnish environmentalist guru has gone further than any other global warming alarmist in openly calling for fascism as a necessary step to save the planet from ecological destruction, demanding that climate change deniers be re-educated in eco-gulags and that the vast majority of humans be killed with the rest enslaved and controlled by a green police state, with people forcibly sterilized, cars confiscated and travel restricted to members of the elite.Philosopher Pentti Linkola has built an enthusiastic following of self-described eco-fascists receptive to his message that the state should enact draconian measures of discipline, prohibition, enforcement and oppression in order to make people comply with environmental dictates.Linkola’s barbaric and dictatorial philosophy has remained relatively obscure but is now gaining traction as the mask of environmentalism is lifted to unveil its true nature – a justification for 21st century tyranny on a grand scale, characterized by eugenics, sterilization, gulags, police states, and total government control over every aspect of our existence.Linkola’s doctrine is more extreme, repulsive, and threatening to liberty than anything carried out by history’s worst dictators, Hitler, Stalin and Mao – combined. Indeed, Linkola laments that such monsters didn’t go far enough in wiping out many more millions of people.

Under Linkola’s proposal to save earth from man-made climate change, only a few million people would work as farmers and fishermen, without modern conveniences such as the automobile. This system would be enforced by the creation of a Green Police who would abandon the syrup of ethics that governs human behavior to completely dominate the population.Linkola calls for forced abortions, while also adding that another world war would be a happy occasion for the planet because it would eradicate tens of millions of people. The environmentalist believes that only jackbooted tyranny can help to save mother earth from the worst ideologies in the world which he defines as growth and freedom.Any dictatorship would be better than modern democracy, he writes.There cannot be so incompetent dictator, that he would show more stupidity than a majority of the people. Best dictatorship would be one where lots of heads would roll and government would prevent any economical growth.

Those who refuse to be enslaved by Linkola’s new eco-tyranny would be abducted and sent to the mountains for re-education in eco-gulags, according to the environmentalist, who says that the only solution lies in a centralised government and the tireless control of citizens.As part of his eco-fascist hell, Linkola calls for ‘killing defectives’ by means of sterilization, licenses for births, tight regulation of electricity, forcing humans to eat rats, the confiscation of private cars, travel to be restricted to members of the elite only, and businesses to be terminated as the economy is entirely handed over to the control of the state.The heart of Linkola’s dark philosophy revolves around the need to slaughter masses of humans. If there were a button I could press, I would sacrifice myself without hesitating if it meant millions of people would die, he writes.Who misses all those who died in the Second World War? Who misses the twenty million executed by Stalin? Who misses Hitler’s six million Jews? asks Linkola.It is impossible to accurately explain and quantify the sheer level of depravity exhibited within Linkola’s belief system. If these words were written by a crazed mass murderer then we’d at least be able to dismiss their import, but these horrendous doctrines are embraced by a prominent environmentalist whose popularity is growing as the putrid tentacles of the eco-fascist movement grow into more areas of society and public discourse.We will have to…learn from the history of revolutionary movements — the national socialists, the Finnish Stalinists, from the many stages of the Russian revolution, from the methods of the Red Brigades — and forget our narcissistic selves, writes Linkola, firmly entrenching his environmental activism in the political prism of Nazism and Stalinism.Indeed, Linkola’s policies make Hitler and Stalin look like fair-minded humanitarians.Read Linkola’s loving and human overpopulation analogy, which as we have documented, is a contrived problem debunked by the UN’S own population statistics.

What to do, when a ship carrying a hundred passengers suddenly capsizes and only one lifeboat? When the lifeboat is full, those who hate life will try to load it with more people and sink the lot. Those who love and respect life will take the ship’s axe and sever the extra hands that cling to the sides of the boat.In reality, by 2020 population will stabilize and by 2050 the global population will start to decline at an alarming rate, with the replacement rate for humans dropping below 2.1. Linkola’s bloodthirsty desire to see the human surplus brutally culled has more in common with the discredited pseudo-philosophy of Malthus than it does any basis in scientific fact.As we have documented, although not going quite as far as Linkola, the eco-fascist movement is attracting prominent advocates, including James Lovelock, the creator of the Gaia hypothesis. Lovelock told the Guardian earlier this year that democracy must be put on hold to combat global warming and that a few people with authority should be allowed to run the planet.This sentiment was echoed by author and environmentalist Keith Farnish, who in a recent book called for acts of sabotage and environmental terrorism in blowing up dams and demolishing cities in order to return the planet to the agrarian age. Prominent NASA global warming alarmist and Al Gore ally Dr. James Hansen endorsed Farnish’s book.Linkola concurs with Farnish and Hansen, writing, Everything we have developed over the last 100 years should be destroyed.Another prominent figure in the climate change debate who exemplifies the violent and death-obsessed belief system of the movement is Dr. Eric R. Pianka, an American biologist based at the University of Texas in Austin. During a speech to the Texas Academy of Science in March 2006, Pianka advocated the need to exterminate 90% of the world’s population through the airborne ebola virus. The reaction from scores of top scientists and professors in attendance was not one of shock or revulsion – they stood and applauded Pianka’s call for mass genocide.

The current White House science czar John P. Holdren also advocates the most obscenely dictatorial, eco-fascist, and inhumane practices in the name of environmentalism. In his 1977 Ecoscience textbook, Holdren calls for a planetary regime to carry out forced abortions and mandatory sterilization procedures, as well as drugging the water supply, in an effort to cull the human surplus.Linkola has outstripped even notorious murder mastermind Charles Manson in his hatred for the human race. During prison interviews, Manson routinely spoke of his belief that around 50 million humans should be slaughtered for the good of the planet, whereas Linkola and his fans simply believe that humanity should cease to exist in its entirety. A fan site dedicated to Linkola includes links to his articles which have headlines like Extinguish Humans, Save the World.Like Manson, Linkola has become a respected environmentalist guru for a new cult of believers who feel that governments and global institutions are not being ruthless enough in enforcing overdue measures to save the Earth from ecological destruction.Linkola has built an environmentalist following by calling for an authoritarian, ecological regime that ruthlessly suppresses consumers, writes the Guardian’s Micah White, adding that Linkola has opened the way for a wave of fascist environmentalists who reject democratic freedom.Another Finnish environmentalist writer, Martin Kreiggeist, hails Linkola’s call for eco-gulags and oppression as a solution, calling for people to take up the axes in pursuit of killing off the third world. Kreiggeist wants fellow eco-fascists to act on Linkola’s call for mass murder in order to solve overpopulation.Linkola himself openly calls for violence to further the cause of eco-fascism. A minority can never have any other effective means to influence the course of matters but through the use of violence, he writes.

While governments around the world continue to harass innocent citizens and define peaceful political action as domestic terrorism, people like Linkola, Pianka and others, along with their growing legion of followers, are left alone despite their open call for violence and genocide.Given the fact that cult followers of these extremist fringe environmentalists, people like Discovery Channel building gunman James Jay Lee, are now starting to act out on their guru’s doctrines with violence, it’s high time that radical global warming alarmists who are calling for mass murder and fascism be investigated by the relevant authorities as potential terrorists.
However, it’s a forlorn hope when one understands that Linkola’s tyrannical and abhorrent belief system is merely an extension of the eugenicist doctrines being promoted by some of the most powerful people on the planet who, backed by an equally enthusiastic establishment media, are now brazenly dispensing with tip-toe tyranny and are openly calling for mass death and dictatorship under the guise of stopping climate change.The establishment points fingers all day long at all manner of political groups to smear them as a threat, while monsters like Linkola and Pianka who advocate the most dangerous and obscene ideas imaginable are lauded and afforded respect by their peers and their growing band of lunatic followers, who are all too eager to act out on the barbarian solutions that are being encouraged in the name of environmentalism.
