Homosexual prostitution inquiry ensnares VIPs with Reagan, Bush
Call boys took midnight tour of White House Paul M. Rodriguez and George Archibald
The Washington Times June 29, 1989
A homosexual prostitution ring is under investigation by federal and District authorities and includes among its clients key officials of the Reagan and Bush administrations, military officers, congressional aides and US and foreign businessmen with close social ties to Washington's political elite, documents obtained by The Washington Times reveal.
One of the ring's high-profile clients was so well-connected, in fact, that he could arrange a middle-of-the-night tour of the White House for his friends on Sunday, July 3, of last year. Among the six persons on the extraordinary 1 a.m. tour were two male prostitutes.Federal authorities, including the Secret Service, are investigating criminal aspects of the ring and have told male prostitutes and their homosexual clients that a grand jury will deliberate over the evidence throughout the summer, The Times learned.Reporters for this newspaper examined hundreds of credit-card vouchers, drawn on both corporate and personal cards and made payable to the escort service operated by the homosexual ring. Many of the vouchers were run through a so-called sub-merchant account of the Chambers Funeral Home by a son of the owner, without the company's knowledge.Among the client names contained in the vouchers - and identified by prostitutes and escort operators - are government officials, locally based US military officers, businessmen, lawyers, bankers, congressional aides and other professionals.Editors of The Times said the newspaper would print only the names of those found to be in sensitive government posts or positions of influence. There is no intention of publishing names or facts about the operation merely for titillation, said Wesley Pruden, managing editor of The Times.
The office of US Attorney General Jay B. Stephens, former deputy White House counsel to President Reagan, is coordinating federal aspects of the inquiry but refused to discuss the investigation or grand jury actions.Several former White House colleagues of Mr. Stephen are listed among clients of the homosexual prostitution ring, according to the credit card records, and those persons have confirmed that the charges were theirs.Mr. Stephen's office, after first saying it would cooperate with The Times' inquiry, withdrew the offer late yesterday and also declined to say whether Mr. Stephens would recuse himself from the case because of possible conflict of interest.At least one highly placed Bush administration official and a wealthy businessman who procured homosexual prostitutes from the escort services operated by the ring are cooperating with the investigation, several sources said.Among clients who charged homosexual prostitutes services on major credit cards over the past 18 months are Charles K. Dutcher, former associate director of presidential personnel in the Reagan administration, and Paul R. Balach, Labor Secretary Elizabeth Dole’s political personnel liaison to the White House.In the 1970s, Mr. Dutcher was a congressional aide to former Rep. Robert Bauman, Maryland Republican, who resigned from the House after admitted having engaged in sexual liaisons with teen-age male prostitutes. Mr. Dutcher also worked on the staff of Vice President Dan Quayle when he represented an Indiana district in the House.
A charge also was discovered against the credit card of a former White House staffer who prepared the president’s daily news summary in the Reagan administration. Todd A Blodgett said he had not made the charge.One of the ring’s big spending clients is Craig J. Spence, Washington socialite and international trade consultant, according to documents and interviews with operators and prostitutes who say they engaged in sexual activities with Mr. Spence.Mr. Spence spent upwards of $20,000 a month for male prostitutes who provided sex to him and his friends, said to include military personnel who also acted as his bodyguards. It was Mr. Spence who arranged the nocturnal tour of the Reagan White House. Repeated attempts to reach Mr. Spence by telephone, fax machine and personal visits to his home, were unsuccessful.Credit card vouchers confirm that Mr. Spence charged thousands of dollars on American Express and Visa cards, sometimes making $600 charges against his cards several times a day, drawn in behalf of an escort service called Professional Services Inc.
Members of major news organizations also procured escort services from the ring, credit card documents show. These include Stanley Mark Tapscott, who was an assistant managing editor of The Washington Times. Mr. Tapscott, whose resignation on June 20 was accepted, said he had not procured homosexual escorts or sexual services of any kind. He said in an interview that he had talked to two women he arranged to meet through the escort service as part of an investigation of a dial-a-porn services he had initiated a year earlier when he was editor of the newspaper’s Money section. The charges were made against his company American Express card. His editors knew of no such investigation.Before joining The Times, Mr. Tapscott worked for the Office of Personnel Management in the Reagan administration.Managers of the escort ring said that a few women were used for clients who called with specific requests but that the regular stable was altogether male.The documents show that a number of clients — lawyers, doctors and business executives — used corporate credit cards to procure escort services and that a number of military officers from the United States and allied countries — including one foreign officer using a Department of Defence credit card — charged male escort services.One former top-level Pentagon officer said that for the past eight years, military and civilian intelligence authorities have been concerned that a nest of homosexuals at top levels of the Reagan administration may have been penetrated by Soviet-backed espionage agents posing as male prostitutes, said one former top-level Pentagon official.
A major concern, said the former official with longtime ties to top-ranking military intelligence officers, was that hostile foreign intelligence services were using young male prostitutes to compromise top administration homosexuals, thus making them subject to blackmail.We have known for many, many years that there is a department of the KGB [Soviet intelligence] whose job it is to prey on sexual deviants, said retired Lt. Gen. Daniel Graham, former head of the Defense Intelligence Agency.Because closet homosexuals in government service can be easily turned through blackmail for espionage purposes, Gen. Graham said, we have always in intelligence tried very hard not to be giving classified information to known homosexuals.Those interviewed by The Times confirmed that there were blackmail attempts by male prostitutes who wanted money and other favors to protect clients’ sexual lives.The clients interviewed say a Feb. 28 police raid on a house at 6004 34th Place NW was set off by reports of blackmail and possible credit-card fraud complaints and by District hotel operators about prostitution activities.In the raid, spearheaded by the Washington Field Office of the U.S. Secret Service, authorities found a telephone switchboard operation serving a half-dozen homosexual escort services.Secret Service agents and District police vice investigators confiscated financial records, as well as ledgers, photos, diaries, telephone records, Rolodexes and client lists of the prostitution network, during the raid and with subsequent subpoenas issued by D.C. Superior Court.Although the confiscated material was turned over to District police on the scene, witnesses and law enforcement agents say the Secret Service kept one box containing names and other information about high-level government officials who were clients of the male escort business.District police officials say that, to their knowledge, this is the first time the Secret Service has ever become involved in such a raid in this area.
Initially, the Secret Service denied it was involved in the raid, but after a second raid of the 34th Place house on May 18, the agency acknowledged its involvement in the investigation.Secret Service spokesman Bob Snow said the agency participated in the search and seizure operation because of its jurisdiction over credit card fraud. We come into such operations usually at the request of a U.S. attorney … if the fraud involves $10,000 or more … We are not involved in any local prostitution investigation, said Mr. Snow.Witnesses to the February raid said 12 Secret Service agents in blue parkas entered the house and spent several hours collecting and removing boxes of files.Federal and District investigators have since interrogated several prostitutes working for the ring, as well as clients of homosexual escort services operating under such names as Jovan, Man-to-Man, Metrodate, Ultimate Models and Ultimate First Class.In addition to credit-card fraud, the investigation is said to be focused on illegal interstate prostitution, abduction and use of minors for sexual perversion, extortion, larceny and related illicit drug trafficking and use by prostitutes and their clients.One of the chief operators of Professional Services Inc. and a regular client of the service speculated in separate interviews that the investigation would be restricted because big names were involved.Henry Vinson [the operator] said a high level official is going to try to block the investigation and may succeed, said Mr. Balach, the labor secretary's liaison to the White House. Mr. Vinson said he believes a highly placed federal official, whom he would not name, is working to derail the investigation, but he would not elaborate.Authorities have been investigating possible credit card fraud by the ring operators since last fall.
Operators of the ring told The Times that videotapes, audio tapes and still photographs were made of sex acts performed by clients and the call boys, including perverted acts.Documents show that customers were charged for videotapes from the operation.

3 Your gold and silver is cankered; and the rust of them shall be a witness against you, and shall eat your flesh as it were fire. Ye have heaped treasure together for the last days.

10 Standing afar off for the fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas that great city Babylon, that mighty city! for in one hour is thy judgment come.
17 For in one hour so great riches is come to nought. And every shipmaster, and all the company in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar off,
19 And they cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and wailing, saying, Alas, alas that great city, wherein were made rich all that had ships in the sea by reason of her costliness! for in one hour is she made desolate.
EZEKIEL 7:19

7 But it shall be one day which shall be known to the LORD, not day, nor night: but it shall come to pass, that at evening time it shall be light.
8 And it shall be in that day, that living waters shall go out from Jerusalem; half of them toward the former sea, and half of them toward the hinder sea: in summer and in winter shall it be.

THE END OF THE WORLD IS ALMOST HERE! HOLY GOD WILL BRING JUDGMENT DAY ON
MAY 21, 2011
http://www.familyradio.com/index.html
JUDGMENT DAY is feared by the world and is the day that God will destroy the world because of the sins of mankind. The world is correct in believing that Judgment Day will come. The Bible gives us the correct and accurate information about that Day.
The Bible is the Holy Book written by Holy God who is the Creator of this beautiful world. The Holy Bible is without question a very ancient book, having been completed about 1,900 years ago. In its original languages (mostly Hebrew and Greek) it has never been changed, and each and every word in the original languages is from the mouth of God. The Bible is divided into two parts (the Old Testament and the New Testament), with each part divided into many books. Each book is divided into chapters, and each chapter is divided into verses. One of the books is named Second Timothy (2 Timothy). In Chapter 3, verse 16 (2 Timothy 3:16) of this book Holy God tells us:
All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness.In Jeremiah 36:1-4 God gives an example of how the Bible was written:And it came to pass in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, that this word came unto Jeremiah from the LORD, saying, Take thee a roll of a book, and write therein all the words that I have spoken unto thee against Israel, and against Judah, and against all the nations, from the day I spake unto thee, from the days of Josiah, even unto this day. It may be that the house of Judah will hear all the evil which I purpose to do unto them; that they may return every man from his evil way; that I may forgive their iniquity and their sin. Then Jeremiah called Baruch the son of Neriah: and Baruch wrote from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of the LORD, which He had spoken unto him, upon a roll of a book [the roll of the book is the Bible].
Holy God is far, far greater than our human minds can even begin to explain or understand. In Genesis 1:1 God declares:In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
The Holy Bible is a book written to us so that we can know that Holy God created this beautiful universe, including all of its plants and animals, birds and sea creatures, and mankind who was created to rule this earth. Indeed there is no being of any kind that can compare with Holy God, who simply by speaking brought every kind of plant, animal, sea creature, and mankind, sun, stars, etc., into existence. For example, Holy God tells us in His Holy Bible in Genesis 1:24-26:And God said, let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so. And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind: and God saw that it was good. And God said, Let Us make man in Our image, after Our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.The people of the earth, which we call mankind, were created to rule over this earth. God gave laws by which we can live as happily and wisely as possible. He warns, however, that the breaking of those laws is sin, and sin will bring punishment from God. The Bible declares in Romans 6:23: For the wages of sin is death….
The Bible teaches there is only one God. The Bible says in Deuteronomy 4:39:Know therefore this day, and consider it in thine heart, that the LORD He is God in heaven above, and upon the earth beneath: there is none else.Because God is so great and glorious He calls Himself by many different names. Each name tells us something about the glorious character and nature of God. Thus in the Bible we find such names as God, Jehovah, Christ, Jesus, Lord, Allah, Holy Spirit, Savior, etc. Names such as Jehovah, Jesus, Savior, and Christ particularly point to God as the only means by which forgiveness from all of our sins and eternal life can be obtained by God’s merciful and glorious actions.

Many books have been written about the Bible, or are regarded as additions to the Bible, like the Koran or the Book of Mormon. But however old or prestigious or well- accepted as a holy book they may be, no book other than the Bible is written by God Himself, and is Holy as the Bible is Holy. God warns in Revelation 22:18:For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book.The word plagues in this verse refers to the punishment of death and destruction that will come upon all those who sin. The Bible teaches that even though God loves this world, which He in His infinite wisdom created, the law of God requires that those who sin must be punished by death. The Bible says in Ezekiel 18:20: The soul that sinneth, it shall die. In Romans 3:10 the Bible declares: There is none righteous [has not sinned], no, not one.
God must also obey His law and therefore, since all the people of the world are sinners, He finally must destroy the world. It is evident that sin in the world has become very great. The Bible warns in Jeremiah 25:33:And the slain of the LORD shall be at that day from one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth: they shall not be lamented, neither gathered, nor buried; they shall be dung upon the ground.However, the Holy Bible tells us that Holy God is a God of great mercy, compassion and love. That is why He has given us in advance of the destruction the exact time of the Day of Judgment. The Bible tells us in Amos 3:7:Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but He revealeth his secret unto His servants the prophets.
Consequently we now can know from the Bible the exact time and many details of God’s destruction plan that is to come upon the whole world.While there is still time we can very humbly cry to God for His gracious mercy. Maybe, since God is such a merciful God, He might forgive someone who is humbly pleading with God for mercy. God promises for example in Zephaniah 2:3:Seek ye the LORD, all ye meek of the earth, which have wrought His judgment; seek righteousness, seek meekness: it may be ye shall be hid in the day of the LORD’S anger.Holy God demonstrates for us that He is completely able to bring destruction on this whole world because of sin. The Holy Bible informs us of this awesome fact in Genesis 6:12-13:And God looked upon the earth, and behold, it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth. And God said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before Me; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and behold, I will destroy them with the earth.
By careful study of the Bible we learn that in the year 4990 B.C. (Before Christ) God brought a flood of water and destroyed the entire earth except for eight people and the animals that were with them. They were not destroyed because God brought them into the safety of the ark. Their leader, Noah, had obeyed God’s command to build a huge boat, called an ark, about 450 feet (137 meters) long.The Holy Bible tells us in Hebrews 11:7:By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by the which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith.
Seven days before the beginning of the Flood that completely covered the entire earth, God commanded Noah to warn the peoples of the world that they had seven days to get into the safety of the ark. The Holy Bible tells us that on the 17th day of the 2nd month of that year God shut the door of the ark. Then, the Flood began to completely cover the entire earth.About 5,000 years later God wrote in His Holy Bible in 2 Peter Chapter 3 about this worldwide destruction by water in the days of Noah. In the same chapter He also warned that the time would come when Holy God would destroy the whole world by fire. Our entire universe would be forever destroyed. In between these two declarations of worldwide destruction that would come because of sin God made a very important statement. God declared in 2 Peter 3:8:
But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.God had written in the Holy Bible in Genesis 7:4:For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights; and every living substance that I have made will I destroy from off the face of the earth.God added in Genesis 7:10-11:And it came to pass after seven days, that the waters of the Flood were upon the earth. In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.The ark that Noah had built was the only place of safety from the destruction of the Flood. Likewise, God’s gracious mercy is the only place of safety from the destruction that is coming on the Day of Judgment.
In 2 Peter 3:8, which is quoted above, Holy God reminds us that one day is as 1,000 years. Therefore, with the correct understanding that the seven days referred to in Genesis 7:4 can be understood as 7,000 years, we learn that when God told Noah there were seven days to escape worldwide destruction, He was also telling the world there would be exactly 7,000 years (one day is as 1,000 years) to escape the wrath of God that would come when He destroys the world on Judgment Day. Because Holy Infinite God is all-knowing, He knows the end from the beginning. He knew how sinful the world would become.Seven thousand years after 4990 B.C. (the year of the Flood) is the year 2011 A.D. (our calendar). 4990 + 2011 – 1 = 7,000
[One year must be subtracted in going from an Old Testament B.C. calendar date to a New Testament A.D. calendar date because the calendar does not have a year zero.]
Thus Holy God is showing us by the words of 2 Peter 3:8 that He wants us to know that exactly 7,000 years after He destroyed the world with water in Noah’s day, He plans to destroy the entire world forever. Because the year 2011 A.D. is exactly 7,000 years after 4990 B.C. when the flood began, the Bible has given us absolute proof that the year 2011 is the end of the world during the Day of Judgment, which will come on the last day of the Day of Judgment.
Amazingly, May 21, 2011 is the 17th day of the 2nd month of the Biblical calendar of our day. Remember, the flood waters also began on the 17th day of the 2nd month, in the year 4990 B.C.
The Holy Bible gives several additional astounding proofs that May 21, 2011 is very accurate as the time for the Day of Judgment. For more information on this subject, you may request a copy of We Are Almost There, available free of charge from Family Radio.God is proving to us that we have very accurately learned from the Holy Bible God’s time-plan for the end of the world.
GOD’S SUBLIME MERCY AND COMPASSION
God in His Holy Bible has given us a beautiful example of His compassionate mercy. Included in the Holy Bible is the book called Jonah. In it God tells of a very wicked city with a population of more than 120,000 people that existed about 2,800 years ago. It was called Nineveh, which was a capital city of the nation of Assyria that knew nothing of the Bible. But because of its wickedness and because Holy God is merciful, He sent a prophet named Jonah to that city. Jonah’s message from God to them was that in 40 days the whole city was to be destroyed.The whole city correctly believed with all their hearts that this warning was from Holy God. Thus from the king on down to the lowest servant they repented, which means they turned away from their sins and their pride. The Holy Bible tells us that they sat in sackcloth and ashes. This meant that they fully realized that because of their sins they had dreadfully shamed God. To put on sackcloth and ashes was an act of supreme humility to show in the clearest way to God and to all of the people how greatly they were humbled by their sins against Holy God. It showed that they knew that they fully deserved that God should destroy them because of their sin.But maybe, there was hope that Holy God might change His mind and instead have mercy on them. The Bible tells us in Jonah 3:6-9:For the word came unto the king of Nineveh, and he arose from his throne, and he laid his robe from him, and covered him with sackcloth, and sat in ashes. And he caused it to be proclaimed and published through Nineveh by the decree of the king and his nobles, saying, Let neither man nor beast, herd nor flock, taste any thing: let them not feed, nor drink water: But let man and beast be covered with sackcloth, and cry mightily unto God: yea, let them turn every one from his evil way, and from the violence that is in their hands. Who can tell if God will turn and repent, and turn away from his fierce anger, that we perish not?
In answer to their complete humility we read of God’s fabulous, incomprehensible mercy toward these extremely wicked people. God tells us in Jonah 3:10:And God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way; and God repented of the evil, that He had said that He would do unto them; and He did it not.Because this entire wicked city of Nineveh turned from their evil ways and with great humility cried to God for mercy, Holy God did change His mind and did not destroy them.Sadly, the Holy Bible tells us that only a small percentage of today’s world will turn from their evil ways, and with great humility and fear will cry to God for mercy. Nevertheless, the Bible assures us that many of the people who do beg God for His mercy will not be destroyed. We learn from the Bible that Holy God plans to rescue about 200 million people (that is about 3% of today’s population). On the first day of the Day of Judgment (May 21, 2011) they will be caught up (raptured) into Heaven because God had great mercy for them. This is why we can be so thankful that God has given us advance notice of Judgment Day. Because God is so merciful, maybe He will have mercy on you. The Holy Bible says in Psalm 51:17:The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.And in Psalm 51:1-3 Holy God shows us the attitude we ought to have as we pray for His mercy:
Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy lovingkindness: according unto the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions. Wash me thoroughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin. For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is ever before me.Sadly, you can’t turn to your religion or go to your priest or pastor or spiritual leader for help. They, too, should be begging God for mercy for themselves. This is a matter only between you and Holy God. God knows every one of your thoughts, words, and actions. Turn away from your sins and humbly beg, beseech, and implore God for forgiveness.And, thank God that in His great mercy He has given you this warning of the destruction that is almost here, and the great hope that you, too, might be one whom God will bring to Heaven to be with God forevermore in the highest happiness and joy and glory. Holy God in the Holy Bible teaches us in Luke 18:10-14:Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican. The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank thee, that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican. I fast twice in the week, I give tithes of all that I possess. And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a sinner. I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other: for every one that exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.May God have mercy on you as He did on this publican.
GENESIS 12:1-3
1 Now the LORD had said unto Abram,(CHANGED TO ABRAHAM LATER) Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father’s house, unto a land that I will shew thee:(PALESTINE,ISRAEL)
2 And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing:
3 And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.

36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.(WE WILL NOT KNOW THE DAY OR HOUR.BUT BY THE SIGNS WE KNOW ITS CLOSE.)
33 So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things,(SIGNS,AFTER ISRAEL IS IN THEIR LAND AND RECAPTURE JERUSALEM AS THEIRS)(THEN YOU WILL) know that it is near, even at the doors.
34 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.
35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.
WE CAN NOT SET A DATE FOR WHATS GOING TO HAPPEN.ITS NOT BIBLICAL.WE JUST KNOW HOW CLOSE WE ARE TO JESUS' RETURN BY THE SIGNS FROM MATTHEW 24 HAPPENING ALL AT THE SAME TIME IN CONJUNCTION WITH ISRAEL BECOMING A NATION IN 1948 AND RECAPTURING JERUSALEM IN 1967.WE KNOW THE GENERATION THAT SEES ISRAEL RECAPTURE JERULAEM IS THE LAST GENERATION.BUT ONLY GOD KNOWS THE EXACT DATE,WE DO NOT.
IN FACT HERES THE SIGN THAT WHEN THIS HAPPENS WW3 WILL BE CLOSE.BUT ONLY HALF OF EARTHS POPULATION DIE IN WW3 (4 BILLION).AND THE WORLD GOES ON FOREVER.ISRAEL AND JERUSALEM WILL ALWAYS BE ON EARTH OR JESUS COULD NOT RULE FROM THERE LIKE HE WILL BE WHEN HE RETURNS TO EARTH BODILY AT THE END OF WW3 OR THE END OF THE 7 YEAR PEACE TREATY OF DANIEL 9:27 WITH ALL THE RAPTURED CHRISTIANS THAT HE TOOK TO HEAVEN 7 YEARS EARLIER.HERES THE MAIN SIGN TO WATCH FOR,AND ITS HAPPENING RIGHT NOW.THATS WHY WE KNOW WW3 IS CLOSE,NO DAY OR HOUR WILL I SAY BUT I KNOW ITS CLOSE.

ZECHARIAH 12:1-5 King James Bible
1 The burden of the word of the LORD for Israel, saith the LORD, which stretcheth forth the heavens, and layeth the foundation of the earth, and formeth the spirit of man within him.
2 Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of trembling unto all the people round about, when they shall be in the siege both against Judah and against Jerusalem.
3 And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it.
4 In that day, saith the LORD, I will smite every horse with astonishment, and his rider with madness: and I will open mine eyes upon the house of Judah, and will smite every horse of the people with blindness.
5 And the governors of Judah shall say in their heart, The inhabitants of Jerusalem shall be my strength in the LORD of hosts their God.

2 I will also gather all nations, and will bring them down into the valley of Jehoshaphat, and will plead with them there for my people and for my heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations, and parted my land.
ZECHARIAH 14:1-9 King James Bible
1 Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, and thy spoil shall be divided in the midst of thee.
2 For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled, and the women ravished; and half of the city shall go forth into captivity, and the residue of the people shall not be cut off from the city.
3 Then shall the LORD go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle.
4 And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, and there shall be a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south. 5 And ye shall flee to the valley of the mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azal: yea, ye shall flee, like as ye fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah: and the LORD my God shall come, and all the saints with thee.
6 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the light shall not be clear, nor dark:
7 But it shall be one day which shall be known to the LORD, not day, nor night: but it shall come to pass, that at evening time it shall be light.
8 And it shall be in that day, that living waters shall go out from Jerusalem; half of them toward the former sea, and half of them toward the hinder sea: in summer and in winter shall it be.
9 And the LORD shall be king over all the earth: in that day shall there be one LORD, and his name one.

THE END OF THE WORLD IS ALMOST HERE! HOLY GOD WILL BRING JUDGMENT DAY ON
MAY 21, 2011
http://www.familyradio.com/index.html
JUDGMENT DAY is feared by the world and is the day that God will destroy the world because of the sins of mankind. The world is correct in believing that Judgment Day will come. The Bible gives us the correct and accurate information about that Day.
The Bible is the Holy Book written by Holy God who is the Creator of this beautiful world. The Holy Bible is without question a very ancient book, having been completed about 1,900 years ago. In its original languages (mostly Hebrew and Greek) it has never been changed, and each and every word in the original languages is from the mouth of God. The Bible is divided into two parts (the Old Testament and the New Testament), with each part divided into many books. Each book is divided into chapters, and each chapter is divided into verses. One of the books is named Second Timothy (2 Timothy). In Chapter 3, verse 16 (2 Timothy 3:16) of this book Holy God tells us:
All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness.In Jeremiah 36:1-4 God gives an example of how the Bible was written:And it came to pass in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, that this word came unto Jeremiah from the LORD, saying, Take thee a roll of a book, and write therein all the words that I have spoken unto thee against Israel, and against Judah, and against all the nations, from the day I spake unto thee, from the days of Josiah, even unto this day. It may be that the house of Judah will hear all the evil which I purpose to do unto them; that they may return every man from his evil way; that I may forgive their iniquity and their sin. Then Jeremiah called Baruch the son of Neriah: and Baruch wrote from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of the LORD, which He had spoken unto him, upon a roll of a book [the roll of the book is the Bible].
Holy God is far, far greater than our human minds can even begin to explain or understand. In Genesis 1:1 God declares:In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
The Holy Bible is a book written to us so that we can know that Holy God created this beautiful universe, including all of its plants and animals, birds and sea creatures, and mankind who was created to rule this earth. Indeed there is no being of any kind that can compare with Holy God, who simply by speaking brought every kind of plant, animal, sea creature, and mankind, sun, stars, etc., into existence. For example, Holy God tells us in His Holy Bible in Genesis 1:24-26:And God said, let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so. And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind: and God saw that it was good. And God said, Let Us make man in Our image, after Our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.The people of the earth, which we call mankind, were created to rule over this earth. God gave laws by which we can live as happily and wisely as possible. He warns, however, that the breaking of those laws is sin, and sin will bring punishment from God. The Bible declares in Romans 6:23: For the wages of sin is death….
The Bible teaches there is only one God. The Bible says in Deuteronomy 4:39:Know therefore this day, and consider it in thine heart, that the LORD He is God in heaven above, and upon the earth beneath: there is none else.Because God is so great and glorious He calls Himself by many different names. Each name tells us something about the glorious character and nature of God. Thus in the Bible we find such names as God, Jehovah, Christ, Jesus, Lord, Allah, Holy Spirit, Savior, etc. Names such as Jehovah, Jesus, Savior, and Christ particularly point to God as the only means by which forgiveness from all of our sins and eternal life can be obtained by God’s merciful and glorious actions.

Many books have been written about the Bible, or are regarded as additions to the Bible, like the Koran or the Book of Mormon. But however old or prestigious or well- accepted as a holy book they may be, no book other than the Bible is written by God Himself, and is Holy as the Bible is Holy. God warns in Revelation 22:18:For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book.The word plagues in this verse refers to the punishment of death and destruction that will come upon all those who sin. The Bible teaches that even though God loves this world, which He in His infinite wisdom created, the law of God requires that those who sin must be punished by death. The Bible says in Ezekiel 18:20: The soul that sinneth, it shall die. In Romans 3:10 the Bible declares: There is none righteous [has not sinned], no, not one.
God must also obey His law and therefore, since all the people of the world are sinners, He finally must destroy the world. It is evident that sin in the world has become very great. The Bible warns in Jeremiah 25:33:And the slain of the LORD shall be at that day from one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth: they shall not be lamented, neither gathered, nor buried; they shall be dung upon the ground.However, the Holy Bible tells us that Holy God is a God of great mercy, compassion and love. That is why He has given us in advance of the destruction the exact time of the Day of Judgment. The Bible tells us in Amos 3:7:Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but He revealeth his secret unto His servants the prophets.
Consequently we now can know from the Bible the exact time and many details of God’s destruction plan that is to come upon the whole world.While there is still time we can very humbly cry to God for His gracious mercy. Maybe, since God is such a merciful God, He might forgive someone who is humbly pleading with God for mercy. God promises for example in Zephaniah 2:3:Seek ye the LORD, all ye meek of the earth, which have wrought His judgment; seek righteousness, seek meekness: it may be ye shall be hid in the day of the LORD’S anger.Holy God demonstrates for us that He is completely able to bring destruction on this whole world because of sin. The Holy Bible informs us of this awesome fact in Genesis 6:12-13:And God looked upon the earth, and behold, it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth. And God said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before Me; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and behold, I will destroy them with the earth.
By careful study of the Bible we learn that in the year 4990 B.C. (Before Christ) God brought a flood of water and destroyed the entire earth except for eight people and the animals that were with them. They were not destroyed because God brought them into the safety of the ark. Their leader, Noah, had obeyed God’s command to build a huge boat, called an ark, about 450 feet (137 meters) long.The Holy Bible tells us in Hebrews 11:7:By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by the which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith.
Seven days before the beginning of the Flood that completely covered the entire earth, God commanded Noah to warn the peoples of the world that they had seven days to get into the safety of the ark. The Holy Bible tells us that on the 17th day of the 2nd month of that year God shut the door of the ark. Then, the Flood began to completely cover the entire earth.About 5,000 years later God wrote in His Holy Bible in 2 Peter Chapter 3 about this worldwide destruction by water in the days of Noah. In the same chapter He also warned that the time would come when Holy God would destroy the whole world by fire. Our entire universe would be forever destroyed. In between these two declarations of worldwide destruction that would come because of sin God made a very important statement. God declared in 2 Peter 3:8:
But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.God had written in the Holy Bible in Genesis 7:4:For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights; and every living substance that I have made will I destroy from off the face of the earth.God added in Genesis 7:10-11:And it came to pass after seven days, that the waters of the Flood were upon the earth. In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.The ark that Noah had built was the only place of safety from the destruction of the Flood. Likewise, God’s gracious mercy is the only place of safety from the destruction that is coming on the Day of Judgment.
In 2 Peter 3:8, which is quoted above, Holy God reminds us that one day is as 1,000 years. Therefore, with the correct understanding that the seven days referred to in Genesis 7:4 can be understood as 7,000 years, we learn that when God told Noah there were seven days to escape worldwide destruction, He was also telling the world there would be exactly 7,000 years (one day is as 1,000 years) to escape the wrath of God that would come when He destroys the world on Judgment Day. Because Holy Infinite God is all-knowing, He knows the end from the beginning. He knew how sinful the world would become.Seven thousand years after 4990 B.C. (the year of the Flood) is the year 2011 A.D. (our calendar). 4990 + 2011 – 1 = 7,000
[One year must be subtracted in going from an Old Testament B.C. calendar date to a New Testament A.D. calendar date because the calendar does not have a year zero.]
Thus Holy God is showing us by the words of 2 Peter 3:8 that He wants us to know that exactly 7,000 years after He destroyed the world with water in Noah’s day, He plans to destroy the entire world forever. Because the year 2011 A.D. is exactly 7,000 years after 4990 B.C. when the flood began, the Bible has given us absolute proof that the year 2011 is the end of the world during the Day of Judgment, which will come on the last day of the Day of Judgment.
Amazingly, May 21, 2011 is the 17th day of the 2nd month of the Biblical calendar of our day. Remember, the flood waters also began on the 17th day of the 2nd month, in the year 4990 B.C.
The Holy Bible gives several additional astounding proofs that May 21, 2011 is very accurate as the time for the Day of Judgment. For more information on this subject, you may request a copy of We Are Almost There, available free of charge from Family Radio.God is proving to us that we have very accurately learned from the Holy Bible God’s time-plan for the end of the world.
GOD’S SUBLIME MERCY AND COMPASSION
God in His Holy Bible has given us a beautiful example of His compassionate mercy. Included in the Holy Bible is the book called Jonah. In it God tells of a very wicked city with a population of more than 120,000 people that existed about 2,800 years ago. It was called Nineveh, which was a capital city of the nation of Assyria that knew nothing of the Bible. But because of its wickedness and because Holy God is merciful, He sent a prophet named Jonah to that city. Jonah’s message from God to them was that in 40 days the whole city was to be destroyed.The whole city correctly believed with all their hearts that this warning was from Holy God. Thus from the king on down to the lowest servant they repented, which means they turned away from their sins and their pride. The Holy Bible tells us that they sat in sackcloth and ashes. This meant that they fully realized that because of their sins they had dreadfully shamed God. To put on sackcloth and ashes was an act of supreme humility to show in the clearest way to God and to all of the people how greatly they were humbled by their sins against Holy God. It showed that they knew that they fully deserved that God should destroy them because of their sin.But maybe, there was hope that Holy God might change His mind and instead have mercy on them. The Bible tells us in Jonah 3:6-9:For the word came unto the king of Nineveh, and he arose from his throne, and he laid his robe from him, and covered him with sackcloth, and sat in ashes. And he caused it to be proclaimed and published through Nineveh by the decree of the king and his nobles, saying, Let neither man nor beast, herd nor flock, taste any thing: let them not feed, nor drink water: But let man and beast be covered with sackcloth, and cry mightily unto God: yea, let them turn every one from his evil way, and from the violence that is in their hands. Who can tell if God will turn and repent, and turn away from his fierce anger, that we perish not?
In answer to their complete humility we read of God’s fabulous, incomprehensible mercy toward these extremely wicked people. God tells us in Jonah 3:10:And God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way; and God repented of the evil, that He had said that He would do unto them; and He did it not.Because this entire wicked city of Nineveh turned from their evil ways and with great humility cried to God for mercy, Holy God did change His mind and did not destroy them.Sadly, the Holy Bible tells us that only a small percentage of today’s world will turn from their evil ways, and with great humility and fear will cry to God for mercy. Nevertheless, the Bible assures us that many of the people who do beg God for His mercy will not be destroyed. We learn from the Bible that Holy God plans to rescue about 200 million people (that is about 3% of today’s population). On the first day of the Day of Judgment (May 21, 2011) they will be caught up (raptured) into Heaven because God had great mercy for them. This is why we can be so thankful that God has given us advance notice of Judgment Day. Because God is so merciful, maybe He will have mercy on you. The Holy Bible says in Psalm 51:17:The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.And in Psalm 51:1-3 Holy God shows us the attitude we ought to have as we pray for His mercy:
Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy lovingkindness: according unto the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions. Wash me thoroughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin. For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is ever before me.Sadly, you can’t turn to your religion or go to your priest or pastor or spiritual leader for help. They, too, should be begging God for mercy for themselves. This is a matter only between you and Holy God. God knows every one of your thoughts, words, and actions. Turn away from your sins and humbly beg, beseech, and implore God for forgiveness.And, thank God that in His great mercy He has given you this warning of the destruction that is almost here, and the great hope that you, too, might be one whom God will bring to Heaven to be with God forevermore in the highest happiness and joy and glory.

And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a sinner. I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other: for every one that exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.May God have mercy on you as He did on this publican.

Hevron Rabbi's Tomb Found after 118 Years
by Maayana Miskin JAN 5,11
Searchers recently found the tombstone of Rabbi Shaul Yehudah-Lieb Hacohen Liebin, a leader in the Chabad-chassidic community of Hevron who passed away 118 years ago. Over the course of time, the memory of his exact burial place was lost.The tomb was found on the Mount of Olives (Har Hazeitim) in Jerusalem.Rabbi Leibin's descendants will gather Friday to hold a memorial service at his grave. Following the service, they will tell stories about his life, and about the Chabad community of Hevron.
Rabbi Liebin served as a rabbi in several communities in Ukraine. In 1887, he came to the land of Israel and settled in Hevron, where he was appointed to lead the Ashkenazi Jewish community in the city, and to join the Beit Din (religious court). In his later years, he moved to Jerusalem.The Jewish community of Hevron continued to flourish after Rabbi Liebin left, until Jews were expelled from the city in the brutal 1929 pogrom, in which local Arabs murdered 67 of their Jewish neighbors and maimed many more. Most survived, some with the help of Arab families; the British army then forced the survivors out of the city.Jews returned to Hevron only after the Six Day War, when the city was reunited with the rest of Israel after 19 years of Jordanian rule. The Jewish community now numbers several hundred, with thousands more living in neighboring Kiryat Arba.(IsraelNationalNews.com)

Jews Demand Arab Only Roads be Opened to All
by Maayana Miskin JAN 5,11
Israelis living in Binyamin have decided that if Israeli roads are open to Palestinian Authority traffic, formerly Arab only roads should be open to everyone as well. Dozens of residents of Talmonim took action on Tuesday, driving along a road that is usually used exclusively by PA Arabs.The road they chose runs between Neve Tzuf and Nachliel, and passes the Arab village of Dir Amar. The road is not officially closed by Jews, but has become a de-facto Arab-only road.The next step is to use roads that are officially closed to Jews, organizers explained. If the army is going to open roads to Arabs and put us in danger, we will travel on the roads that are [now] closed to us, they said.Many roads that for years were used only by Israelis have been opened to PA traffic in recent months. The roads, built by Israel and formerly used by Israelis and PA Arabs alike, were closed to PA traffic almost a decade ago following hundreds of terrorist attacks, many of them fatal.Israelis have protested that reopening the roads will put them in danger. There have been multiple fatal shooting attacks on Judea and Samaria roads over the past year, as well as several rock and firebomb attacks that ended in injury.The army's actions are threatening our security, said members of the Binyamin Residents' Council. It's disgraceful that there are roads that Jews cannot travel on. Arabs drive on our highways with no worries, and we are forbidden to use roads in the Land of Israel.We will not allow this capitulation, which projects weakness,they continued, concluding, We will work against anti-Jewish discrimination.(IsraelNationalNews.com)

UK More Interested in Islam, 100,000 Have Converted
by Maayana Miskin JAN 5,11
A study conducted by Swansea University for the British group Faith Matters has found that UK citizens are increasingly interested in Islam, with the number of converts to Islam nearly doubling in 10 years. An estimated total of 100,000 have converted to Islam, 5,200 of them in 2010.In 2001, it was estimated that 60,000 British citizens had converted to Islam.Of the most recent converts, two-thirds are women. Most are white and native to Britain. The average age of new converts is 27.
One in four believe there is a natural conflict between being devoutly Muslim and being a British citizen. More than half said they had met with a negative response from family regarding their conversion.When asked what they believe to be the negative aspects of British society, the converts cited alcohol consumption, sexual permissiveness, and unrestrained consumerism.Similar studies in France and Germany found that approximately 4,000 people convert to Islam each year in both countries.
Faith Matters director Fiyaz Mughal said the precise number of converts to Islam is unknown, but that it is clear that the number has risen dramatically over the past decade. Converts could play an important role in both British and Muslim society by helping to reconcile the two worlds, and by disentangling cultural norms... which blur the true essence of Islam, Mughal opined.Britain has faced challenges integrating its Muslim population. A 2008 report showed that one-third of Muslim students justified killing in the name of religion, and a recent BBC report found that thousands of Muslim children in Britain are being taught to hate Jews, Israelis, and homosexuals.In some cases British Muslims have actively fought Israel, by sending aid to Hamas in Gaza or by joining Hamas in Gaza.In 2009 the government decided to combat homegrown Muslim terrorism with a program to screen Muslim schoolchildren for potential terrorists.(IsraelNationalNews.com)

Confirmed: Ventura’s Conspiracy Theory Episodes Disappearing from DVRs
Kurt Nimmo Infowars.com January 5, 2010
Emails sent to Infowars.com and comments posted on Alex Jones’ flagship websites today provide multiple confirmations that episodes of Jesse Ventura’s popular truTV show Conspiracy Theory are disappearing from the DVRs of TiVo, Comcast, DirectTV and AT&T customers.Shows finding their way to the digital memory hole include the already heavily censored Police State episode and shows on the JFK assassination and the worldwide water conspiracy.All of the shows that we have recorded on our Direct TV DVR of Jesse Ventura’s Show season 1 & 2 was removed without mine and my husband’s permission, an email received on December 27 explains. We do not have any setting’s on the DVR which would allow or permit the shows to be erased and deleted from our Direct TV Receiver/ Recorder.Alex is right, a comment on the InfowarMovies states. I had 7 episodes of Ventura in my directv dvr. All of them marked as keep. The police state episode is gone. I think when they do code updates is when they erase. This is nuts! I have AT&T Uverse and the Fema camp episode has been erased from my DVR, reports a comment on Paul Joesph Watson’s story this morning about the episode appearing on YouTube.TiVo has admitted monitoring DVR units. For instance, in 2004, the company said Janet Jackson’s wardrobe malfunction during the Super Bowl was the most replayed moment ever measured. TiVo said it used its technology to measure audience behavior among 20,000 users during the Super Bowl, CNN reported on February 23, 2004.On December 2, Infowars.com reported upon a series of inconsistencies with the re-airing and promotion for the Police State FEMA camp segment.
The episode was de-listed from TruTV’s website, bonus clips associated with the episode were removed from the website, its encore airings were canceled and it was not played during the recent Conspiracy Theory marathon, Infowars.com reported at the time.On December 17, Ventura went on Alex’s show and confirmed the government and Homeland Security put pressure on Time Warner to pull the show. TruTV is owned by Turner Broadcasting, a subsidiary of Time Warner. Tennessee Rep. Steve Cohen also turned up the heat on TruTV.Whatever the full cause of the behind-the-scenes pressure, it is clear that the government does not want audiences discussing FEMA camps and Fusion Centers or looking up H.R. 645, the bill named and read in the episode that authorizes FEMA emergency centers, we reported on December 3.Alex has done all he can to make sure the TruTV series is packed with hard-hitting facts and full of real, substantial issues. Though the show employs the dramatic techniques used throughout TV land, this is not the typical fluff. People had better understand that these are truly groundbreaking shows that are discussing damning evidence that the establishment doesn’t want sinking into the minds of a mainstream audience. Who knows if tonight’s water episode investigating lithium, uranium and fluoride being added to drinking water as a means of population control will itself even air or be replayed after the fact.DVR services deleting the episodes in question from the machines of customers represents a new level of corporate meddling at the behest of the establishment in its attempt to shut down the growing truth movement as it methodically exposes on multiple fronts the criminal behavior and corruption at the highest levels of government.It also reveals how corporations and government are using computer and digital technology to remove media the establishment wants to shuffle off to the memory hole.Winston Smith, the protagonist of George Orwell’s dystopian novel 1984, used a small chute at the Ministry of Truth leading to an incinerator to disappear documents and other records frowned upon by the state.In 2011, the process is far easier and more sinister – electronic media only need be deleted to disappear forever.

Heavy floods leave at least 35 dead in Brazil
JAN 6,11
SAO PAULO – Authorities in Brazil say four people from the same family have died in a mudslide in the interior of Sao Paulo state, and civil defense officials say heavy flooding have killed at least 35 people and forced more than 30,000 out of their homes across the country.Officials in the city of Jundiai said Thursday the four people, including two girls, died when their house collapsed because of a mudslide triggered by downpours.The worst hit state is Minas Gerais, where civil defense authorities said on Thursday that 16 people either drowned or were buried in mudslides. More than 13,000 were forced to seek shelter.Heavy rains since Christmas in Sao Paulo, Rio de Janeiro and Espirito Santo states have killed more than 20 people and left about 20,500 homeless.
Northeast braces for snow; Plains stay dry
JAN 6,11
NEW YORK (Reuters) – Temperatures in the Northeast ranged from the 20s in northern New England to the high 30s Fahrenheit on Thursday as the region braced for a snowy, windy weekend.Continued dry weather in the western Plains hard red winter wheat region remained a problem with only light precipitation expected for the next 10 days. Forecasters said there is no immediate threat from cold weather but a turn to bitter cold at the end of the 10-day period bears watching.No significant cold weather threats are seen for the Midwest soft red winter wheat region, despite mention of much-below normal temperatures at times.
Draining flooded Australia mines could take weeks By Rebekah Kebede and Daniel Munoz – Thu Jan 6, 4:42 am ET
ROCKHAMPTON/PERTH, Australia (Reuters) – Australia's flood-stricken coal industry faced lengthy disruptions on Thursday, with one miner saying it could take weeks to drain its pits of water and a major port suspending export shipments because of a lack of coal.Floods have swamped mines in Queensland state, paralyzing operations that produce 35 percent of Australia's estimated 259 million tonnes of exportable coal. Australia contributes two-thirds of global coking-coal exports, needed to make steel.About 200,000 people scattered across an area the size of France and Germany combined have been affected by the flooding in Queensland. Damage from the floods, the worst in the state in 50 years, has been estimated at $5 billion.One of Queensland's two major coal ports, Gladstone, suspended exports on Thursday, starved of sufficient supplies from water-logged and marooned mines further inland.
Gladstone port normally blends together different coals at the waterfront before loading ships, but a port spokeswoman said it had insufficient quantities to continue blending to the same standard. It was now awaiting further guidance from miners.It's the coal companies' call as to whether they start loading that coal or not, the spokeswoman told Reuters.One commodities analyst estimated that 45 to 50 million tonnes of metallurgical-grade coal needed to make steel were under force majeure declarations, which temporarily release miners from delivery obligations.That doesn't mean those tonnes are lost to the market, they are just saying there is a risk they might not be delivered on time, said UBS commodities analyst Tom Price.Also, production of roughly 8 percent of the world's thermal coal production -- used in power generation -- has been temporarily eliminated by the flooding, according to Australia & New Zealand Bank analyst Mark Pervan.Analysts expect steel coals to rise as much as a third to $300 a tonne in the aftermath of the floods, sweeping thermal coal prices higher in the process.You can't have a lift in metallurgical coal prices without dragging up thermal coal, Price said.
Asian steel-makers are anxious over Australian supplies, worried the disruptions could outlast their stockpiles, which typically hold around a month's worth of consumption.London-listed Anglo American, one of the nation's top four miners of steel-making coal, said it could take some weeks to pump water out of its flooded mines and that it was too early to say when its collieries could resume operation.Our focus is currently on mobilizing our people and other resources and de-watering flooded coal pits, which we estimate will take some weeks, Seamus French, head of the group's metallurgical coal division, said in a statement.Anglo has about seven coal mines in Queensland, the state that accounts for most of Australia's coking-coal exports.Anglo's major rivals, Rio Tinto, Xstrata and BHP Billiton, have also been hit by the floods, and all have made force majeure declarations.The flooding is already receding in some coal fields, but all four major producers still face supply disruptions and cannot say when operations would return to normal.In 2008, flooding stalled some mines for as long as six months, but others began producing within six weeks, said Andrew Harrington, an analyst at Patersons Securities in Sydney.Mines then raised output to recoup losses and ended the year about 10 percent below where they otherwise would have been.This time around, it's happening a lot earlier, it looks a lot worse, and we're still seeing more rainfall, said Harrington.
CAMELS, HORSES AND SNAKES
Floodwaters have begun to slowly recede in some districts in Queensland, but were still rising in some areas further south, including around the town of St George. In Rockhampton, a cattle town of 75,000, muddy flood waters had dropped a few inches overnight despite more heavy rains but it will take days before a cleanup can begin. On pockets of higher land, camels and horses grazed on people's front lawns, while residents relied on boats to fetch supplies.Most homes are built on stilts in the flood-prone area, so water had not risen above the floors in most cases.Hospitals in central Queensland have also been stockpiling anti-venom, media reported, after snakes sought refuge in homes, including the deadly brown snake.
ECONOMIC COST PUT AT $5 BILLION
Three people have been killed in the floods and hundreds left homeless. The economic cost of the inundation, which some scientists are linking to global warming and rising sea temperatures, is already estimated at around $5 billion.Roads, rail lines and bridges have been submerged, and authorities are waiting for the waters to recede before they can assess how much vital infrastructure needs rebuilding.
Australian stocks were flat on Thursday, undermined in part by worries over the impact of floods on mining profits.Dalrymple Bay, the country's largest coal export port, is operating but said on Thursday that deliveries to the port could dry up unless mines started reopening by the weekend.If we can't get it in, we can't ship it out, said Dalrymple spokesman Greg Smith. Typically the port receives about 230,000-240,000 tonnes of coal daily from mines.QR National, the country's biggest coal freight business, said on Thursday it was ramping up operations on a reopened rail line, enabling coal to reach the coast, but problems remained elsewhere on other, larger lines.QR National's big Blackwater line remained closed, impacting operations for Wesfarmers, BHP, Xstrata and Rio Tinto.(Additional reporting by James Regan and Amy Pyett)(Editing by Mark Bendeich)
Heavy rains hit Australia's flood-drenched northeast
by Amy Coopes – Thu Jan 6, 1:54 am ET
ROCKHAMPTON, Australia (AFP) – Heavy rains threatened further flooding in Australia's drenched northeast Thursday as besieged Rockhampton cut supplies to irresponsible residents who refused to leave water-bound homes.Torrential downpours could cause flash-flooding and worsen existing floods, the weather bureau said, as water levels slowly started to recede in regional centre Rockhampton, a town virtually surrounded by a brown inland sea.Australia's coal-mining and farming belt near Brisbane is suffering biblical floods across an area the size of Texas, after La Nina, a weather system, deluged Queensland state with its wettest year on record.
Waters peaked in Rockhampton at lower levels than feared and slowly started to recede, while downstream other communities braced for the floods. The disaster, described as the state's worst, has inundated or cut off 40 towns.Entire towns have been airlifted as the murky tide gushes across Queensland, destroying crops, roads and bridges and sweeping 10 people to their deaths, along with thousands of animals.
The crisis has cost about Aus$1 billion ($1 billion US) in lost production at Queensland's coking coal mines, which account for half the world's supply, putting upward inflationary pressure on the shaky global economy.Meanwhile, thousands of people have evacuated or are trying to salvage homes and belongings, while dealing with the threat of poisonous snakes, crocodiles and disease-carrying mosquitoes as they negotiate the sludge and rain.Rockhampton's mayor Brad Carter angrily slammed residents, including those with children, who refused to evacuate and now relied on food and groceries brought by emergency personnel wading through snake-infested waters.We have taken a decision, and we make it very clear, that we cannot put emergency services resources at risk bringing in those supplies, Carter said.They have to now respect and understand that because they make that choice... they will not be getting resupply of essential services, goods and grocery items provided by emergency services personnel.Acting police superintendent David Peff said that wading into the waters -- sometimes up to chest height -- was dangerous for his men and backed the mayor's pleas to isolated residents in the town of 75,000.Every time we put police or SES (State Emergency Service) people into that water... my personal concern is people that are helping will end up being bitten by a snake, Peff told reporters.Residents of Condamine, which was completely evacuated, were making their way back to the deserted town, while only about 100 of Emerald's 11,000 inhabitants remained in emergency shelters as of Wednesday night.Australia's sodden 2010 -- the third wettest year on record -- broke a decade-old drought in some areas and brought the unusual sight of waterfalls cascading off Uluru, or Ayers Rock, as torrents raced along parched riverbeds.Lush, green landscapes in New South Wales state forced film-makers to postpone shooting for Mad Max 4, set in a post-apocalypse desert, while an Outback yachting regatta went ahead for the first time in 10 years.

BP, Transocean shares shrug off U.S. oil spill report
By Tom Bergin - JAN 6,11
LONDON (Reuters) – Shares in BP and Transocean rose on Thursday as investors bet a new U.S. Presidential panel report that spread the blame for the country's worst-ever oil spill meant the firms would avoid the massive costs of a gross negligence charge.BP's London-listed shares were up 1.6 percent at 507.6 pence at 1100 GMT (6 a.m. ET), while shares in Transocean's Swiss-listed shares were up 3.9 percent. The STOXX 600 European oil and gas sector index was up 1.2 percent, on higher oil prices.
One top 10 investor in BP said the fact that the blame for the blowout was shared with drilling contractor Transocean and well cementer Halliburton suggested the London-based oil major was less likely to face gross negligence charges.Under U.S. law, BP faces fines of $5 billion because the spill happened on its exploration block.However, the fine could rise above $21 billion if Europe's second-largest oil company by market value was found to have been grossly negligent in the run-up to the blast.Peter Hitchens, oil analyst at Panmure Gordon, said comments made in the report that the management failure which caused the explosion on the Deepwater Horizon rig reflected industry-wide flaws, also made BP appear less culpable.And while the report was damning, Richard Griffith, analyst at Evolution Securities said it could also mean BP can offload some of the costs of cleaning up the spill onto its contractors.The report may provide grounds for BP to claw back monies from license partners and possibly Transocean and Halliburton, he said in a research note.

Asia scrambles to contain food inflation By Neil Fullick And Naveen Thukral – JAN 6,11
SINGAPORE (Reuters) – Record high food prices are moving to the top of the agenda for many Asian policymakers as the prospect of higher inflation in 2011 poses a major threat to the region's strong revival from the global financial crisis.The United Nations' food agency (FAO) said on Wednesday that food prices hit a record high last month, moving beyond levels of 2008, when riots broke out in countries as far afield as Egypt, Cameroon and Haiti.Food inflation in many Asian countries, including China and India, is already in double digits, raising fears that the price pressures could spread more broadly to other sectors and pose a threat to both economic and social stability as millions of Asians live in poverty.The FAO said sugar and meat were at their highest since its records began in 1990. Prices were at their highest since 2008 crisis levels for wheat, rice, corn and other cereals.
Benchmark prices solely in Asia for rice suggested a different picture.The region's staple food now stands at $535 per tonne -- less than half its 2008 levels of more than $1,000 a tonne that prompted several governments at the time to impose curbs on exports to protect their domestic markets.However, the fact that rice is far from the lofty levels of the 2007/2008 food crisis should offer no comfort for policymakers.I wouldn't be terribly surprised if 2011 resembles in many ways 2008, said Frederic Neumann, regional economist at HSBC in Hong Kong.Food price inflation could really go into double digits across the region and rise to such an extent that it undermines the purchasing power of households and as a result then slows consumer demand and overall economic growth, he said.And that's a problem for Asian economic growth. But really it's also a problem for the rest of the world because as the Asian consumer increasingly is helping to stabilise world demand, it's actually a challenge of wider global significance.Surging food prices have proved a trigger for social protests in the past, forcing governments to cave in to demands for action. They were a factor in the fall from power of Indonesia's long-term autocrat Suharto in 1998.Last year, wheat futures prices rose 47 percent, buoyed by a series of weather events including drought in Russia and its Black Sea neighbours. U.S. corn rose more than 50 percent and U.S. soybeans jumped 34 percent.
PRICES TO KEEP RISING
Luke Matthews, a commodity strategist at Commonwealth Bank of Australia, said there was little reason to expect any let up in the global rally in food prices.We do believe that the structural drivers behind high food prices are likely to persist for some time, he said. We have tight stocks in the corn and sugar markets, we have world wheat stocks susceptible to turn lower with forecasts of La Nina to persist for the next 3 months or so.La Nina is a weather pattern that brings cooling temperatures, resulting in higher rainfall in Australia, a major wheat and sugar exporter, and parts of Southeast Asia.The structural drivers make food commodities and the stocks of food companies hot investment sectors this year, said Terence Wong, an analyst at brokerage DMG in Singapore.He cited vegetable grower and processor China Minzhong and animal drug maker China Animal Healthcare as his top tips in the local market. Fan Cheuk Wan, head of Asia Pacific research at the private banking division of Credit Suisse, favours Indonesian palm oil firm Indofood Agri Resources and suggested investors avoid companies that could get hit by price controls. World Bank President Robert Zoellick urged governments in a newspaper opinion column to avoid protectionist measures as food prices rise and called upon the Group of 20 leading economies to take steps to make sure the poor get adequate food supply. Still, Asia's rapidly rising consumption as developing economies such as India, China and Indonesia emerge on the world stage is a major factor behind the rise in food prices.China, for example, is expected to buy 60 percent of internationally traded soybeans in 2010/11, double its purchases of four years earlier.Several countries have implemented measures to try to keep food prices under control, worried about a repeat of the 2007/2008 crisis, when surging commodity prices prompted a jump in inflation and left many countries with a deep trade deficit.
India's food prices rose to a one-year high of more than 18 percent in the year to the end of December, data on Thursday showed. That, along with rising fuel prices, is the main reason analysts expect the central bank to raise rates this month. The Indian government has operated a range of measures for years to ensure stable food prices, but since last year has boosted the release of national stocks of grains and has pledged to continue with duty-free imports of crude vegetable oils.In China, several cities have implemented direct controls to limit food price increases and the central government has vowed to eliminate speculation in the country's commodities markets.The cost of food rose 11.7 percent in the year to November, while non-food items were up just 1.9 percent. But, reflecting concerns that inflation is creeping beyond food to the wider economy, consumer goods prices and housing costs showed clear jumps.Fu Bingtao, an economist with the Agricultural Bank of China in Beijing, said in a report that grains, the country's most important food, would rise in price in 2011 by 10 percent, adding to an 11.7 percent rise in 2010.Speculative trading and hoarding of specific agricultural products may continue, he said.Indonesia's president called on Thursday for households to plant food to help combat inflation. Chillis, used widely in Indonesian cooking, have risen fivefold in the past year. [ID:nL3E7C60I7]
POLICY RESPONSE
Higher interest rates do little to ease pressure on food prices. Demand is inelastic because people have to eat, but current price pressures are largely supply-led, so tighter monetary policy would not directly help.The danger, however, is that food inflation spreads to the wider economy.I think there's an urgent need to be more pre-emptive in tightening monetary policy to prevent some of these inflation pressures from erupting, said Neumann.Neumann said some central banks had taken some action in terms of monetary tightening, but more needed to be done.On average, interest rates in Asia are about 150 basis points below the neutral level, that is, even if we see marginal rate hikes coming through, this wouldn't necessarily amount to a tightening of monetary policy, rather an easing of the stimulus.Therefore much more aggressive action would be warranted at this stage.South Korea, like other Asian countries that run trade and current account surpluses, could give more room to its currency to rise to offset rising import costs on food.But that presents another dilemma for policymakers trying to curb a flood of portfolio capital from investors turning away from the sluggish growth in developed economies.Higher interest rates or the likelihood of a rising currency would just encourage further inflows, analysts say. Policymakers will also be worried that a rising currency will hurt exports, the major pillar of many economies.(Reporting by Reuters bureaux; Writing by Neil Fullick, Editing by Ron Popeski)
Eurozone economic confidence gets December boost
by Laurent Thomet - JAN 6,11
BRUSSELS (AFP) – Confidence in the eurozone economy rose to the highest level for three years last month, a bright spot in a bad year which the single currency area wants to put behind it, key EU data showed on Thursday.Regional powerhouses France and Germany carried the stronger-than-expected rise, but in a sign that the euro has yet to shake off its troubles, southern members hit by high debts and public deficits continued to fall back.The survey underlines the view that the peripheral economies are set for another very tough year, said Ben May, European economist at market research firm Capital Economics.The Economic Sentiment Indicator published by the European Commission rose by 1.1 points to 106.2 points across the 16-nation single currency area -- now 17 since Estonia joined on January 1, 2011. It was the highest level since it peaked at 106.5 points in October 2007.In the wider 27-nation European Union, confidence rose 1.0 point to 106.1 points.Sentiment in most EU countries improved but confidence fell in Spain and Greece which were forced to implement tough austerity measures to bring down high deficits.France led the pack with a gain of 2.5 points, followed by 2.4 points in the Netherlands and 1.5 points in Germany. But Spain fell back 0.9 points while Greece retreated by 1.4 points.It is notable that there were marked divergences in sentiment between the individual economies, reinforcing the impression of a two-speed eurozone, said Howard Archer, chief European economist at IHS Global Insight.
In another sign of Germany's robust economic health, industrial orders leapt by a surprise 5.2 percent in November from the level in October, according to national data.The eurozone's debt crisis began last year with a bailout of ?110 billion ($144 billion) for Greece and was followed by a rescue of ?67 billion for Ireland in December. Analysts warn that Spain and Portugal may be next in line for help.The high confidence in the eurozone economy in December was fuelled by strong business sentiment, but consumers were less than buoyant, the European Commission survey showed.The data suggest that consumers may have been more spooked by the heightened eurozone sovereign debt crisis than businesses,Archer said.It is also likely that consumers are becoming increasingly concerned about the fiscal tightening that will increasingly kick in across the Eurozone during 2011, as well as by higher inflation, he said.Sentiment in industry rose sharply, by 3.6 points in the EU and 3.3 points in the eurozone, while consumer confidence fell 1.1 points in the EU and 1.6 points in the eurozone.In another indication of consumer jitters, retail sales in the eurozone dropped by 0.8 percent in November compared to the previous month's level, according to the Eurostat data agency.

Fear stalks Egypt's churches over Coptic Christmas
By Sarah Mikhail and Yasmine Saleh - JAN 6,11
CAIRO (Reuters) – Egypt tightened security around churches on the eve of Coptic Christmas after a New Year's Day bombing killed up to 23 and sparked angry protests by Christians demanding more protection from Muslim militants.Officials suspect an al Qaeda-inspired bomber was behind the blast outside a church in the port city of Alexandria. Islamist websites had carried repeated threats to attack churches and have vowed to strike again.The blast ripped through a crowd, scattering body parts, destroying cars and shattering windows.I no longer want to stay in this country, said Emad Atef, 25, a Christian who is a carpenter. I am getting the paperwork to leave. I don't feel safe and neither do those around me.Extra police were deployed outside main churches, streets nearby were cleared of cars and some roads were blocked by security measures.Egypt's Muslims and Christians have co-existed for centuries, with occasional clashes often the result of family or business disputes or cross-faith relationships, not ideology. Egypt church attack to fuel sectarian tension.Christians, who form one tenth of the population, complain of discrimination in the job market and a lack of representation in government, the army and business. A perception of growing intolerance is leading some to shun their Muslim compatriots.
The church bombed at New Year was previously targeted in 2006 when a man assaulted worshippers at two churches during Mass, killing one person and wounding five.A year later, Christian shops in the area were attacked during the Muslim Eid al-Adha holiday after rumours spread of a love affair between a Muslim woman and Christian man.One year ago, six Copts and a Muslim policeman were killed in a drive-by shooting outside a church after midnight Mass. Orthodox Copts celebrate Christmas on January 7.Copts voiced fury last year when Muslim radicals chanted slogans against Christians and insulted Coptic Orthodox Pope Shenouda at demonstrations as police stood by.
RECIPE FOR VIOLENCE
The Alexandria attack was the worst in decades against Christians and drew attention to the state's handling of sectarian riots. Rights groups say Egyptian police have been too slow to punish violence motivated by religion, sending a message that it is acceptable.Copts said the government should prosecute the rioters instead of urging victims to accept reconciliation. It's a recipe for a recurrence of these violent attacks,said Hossam Bahgat, head of the Egyptian Initiative for Personal Rights.
Some pointed to a deeper problem -- a gradual Islamisation of education promoting a single, Islamic version of Egypt's identity that belies a diverse cultural history.
Our school books are preaching Islamisation, said Youssef Sidhom, the Christian editor of weekly newspaper Watani. Coptic history of Egypt is to a vast extent withdrawn... The syllabus is using Islam as the source of all traditions and norms.
Some young Copts, usually fiercely loyal to their church leaders, have begun to criticize them for keeping too low a profile and allowing political Islam to influence state policy.Many within the Coptic community are now feeling a threat to their very survival, their very presence, said Bahgat. Two Christians died as result of a riot in a Cairo suburb in November, when about 3,000 Copts hurled stones at police after the authorities blocked building of a church. Muslims lobbed rocks at the Christians from behind police lines.We are being attacked, one attack after another, and are about to explode, said 33-year-old aluminum worker Medhat Malak, who was constructing the church.President Hosni Mubarak called in a speech for unity after the Alexandria attack, saying the bomber targeted all Egyptians.State television has featured Christian-themed programing in the run up to Orthodox Christmas and some Egyptian Muslims rushed to express solidarity after the Alexandria attack.One Muslim made a page on Facebook entitled Being together in Christmas Eve ... Either we LIVE together or DIE together.By God's will I shall go to church tonight, said Ishac Helmy, who sells plastic slippers. It's true that I'm afraid, but Jesus told us, Fear not for I am with you all the days, and that gives me courage.(Writing and additional reporting by Tom Pfeiffer; editing by Mark Heinrich)

Israeli, Egyptian leaders to discuss peacemaking
– Thu Jan 6, 5:28 am ET
JERUSALEM – Israel's prime minister says he will discuss Mideast peacemaking with Egypt's leader, as well as the common threat posed by Iranian-backed militant groups.
Benjamin Netanyahu says Gaza-based Hamas militants and Lebanese Hezbollah guerrillas want to disturb the quiet but we will not let them.Both groups have warred with Israel. Egypt is worried by their Islamic militancy and Iranian ties.Netanyahu said in a statement that he and Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak would also discuss stalemated Israeli-Palestinian peace talks when they meet in Egypt later Thursday.The Palestinians say they will not resume talks without a complete freeze in settlement building.Israel rejects that demand.
Angry crowd forces Israeli PM to halt speech
– Wed Jan 5, 4:27 pm ET
JERUSALEM – Angry relatives of 42 Israelis killed in a huge forest fire last month forced Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to stop his speech Wednesday at a ceremony honoring the dead.Family members shouted that he should be held responsible for the handling of the disaster response. Others directed their anger at Interior Minister Eli Yishai, who was escorted out of the hall. Firefighting services are part of his ministry.Israel's firefighting services were unprepared for the huge fire, which destroyed swaths of forest in Israel's north. Since Israel lacked any suitable aircraft, Netanyahu had to appeal for help from abroad. Several nations, including the United States, sent firefighting planes that helped douse the blaze after four days.During Wednesday's disturbance, bodyguards rushed toward the podium and formed a line to keep people away from Netanyahu.Relatives yelled at him to resign and called the ceremony a disgrace. They objected to his attempt to identify with their personal pain without taking responsibility for the tragedy.We will find out the truth. We will not rest until we find out the truth, shouted one man from the crowd.
Netanyahu had to stop talking for several minutes while security officers restored order.Among those who heckled Netanyahu was Danny Rosen, the partner of Israel's highest-ranking female police officer, Ahuva Tomer, the police chief of the northern city of Haifa. She was killed when flames enveloped a bus she was accompanying. It was carrying prison service workers toward a jail, where they were sent to evacuate prisoners.The flames reached the outskirts of Haifa, Israel's third-largest city.
Netanyahu has attended a number of functions and meetings of officials in the aftermath of the fire, by far the largest forest fire in Israel's history.

Hevron Rabbi's Tomb Found after 118 Years
by Maayana Miskin JAN 5,11
Searchers recently found the tombstone of Rabbi Shaul Yehudah-Lieb Hacohen Liebin, a leader in the Chabad-chassidic community of Hevron who passed away 118 years ago. Over the course of time, the memory of his exact burial place was lost.The tomb was found on the Mount of Olives (Har Hazeitim) in Jerusalem.Rabbi Leibin's descendants will gather Friday to hold a memorial service at his grave. Following the service, they will tell stories about his life, and about the Chabad community of Hevron.
Rabbi Liebin served as a rabbi in several communities in Ukraine. In 1887, he came to the land of Israel and settled in Hevron, where he was appointed to lead the Ashkenazi Jewish community in the city, and to join the Beit Din (religious court). In his later years, he moved to Jerusalem.The Jewish community of Hevron continued to flourish after Rabbi Liebin left, until Jews were expelled from the city in the brutal 1929 pogrom, in which local Arabs murdered 67 of their Jewish neighbors and maimed many more. Most survived, some with the help of Arab families; the British army then forced the survivors out of the city.Jews returned to Hevron only after the Six Day War, when the city was reunited with the rest of Israel after 19 years of Jordanian rule. The Jewish community now numbers several hundred, with thousands more living in neighboring Kiryat Arba.(IsraelNationalNews.com)

Jews Demand Arab Only Roads be Opened to All
by Maayana Miskin JAN 5,11
Israelis living in Binyamin have decided that if Israeli roads are open to Palestinian Authority traffic, formerly Arab only roads should be open to everyone as well. Dozens of residents of Talmonim took action on Tuesday, driving along a road that is usually used exclusively by PA Arabs.The road they chose runs between Neve Tzuf and Nachliel, and passes the Arab village of Dir Amar. The road is not officially closed by Jews, but has become a de-facto Arab-only road.The next step is to use roads that are officially closed to Jews, organizers explained. If the army is going to open roads to Arabs and put us in danger, we will travel on the roads that are [now] closed to us, they said.Many roads that for years were used only by Israelis have been opened to PA traffic in recent months. The roads, built by Israel and formerly used by Israelis and PA Arabs alike, were closed to PA traffic almost a decade ago following hundreds of terrorist attacks, many of them fatal.Israelis have protested that reopening the roads will put them in danger. There have been multiple fatal shooting attacks on Judea and Samaria roads over the past year, as well as several rock and firebomb attacks that ended in injury.The army's actions are threatening our security, said members of the Binyamin Residents' Council. It's disgraceful that there are roads that Jews cannot travel on. Arabs drive on our highways with no worries, and we are forbidden to use roads in the Land of Israel.We will not allow this capitulation, which projects weakness,they continued, concluding, We will work against anti-Jewish discrimination.(IsraelNationalNews.com)

2 Son of man, set thy face against Gog,(RULER) the land of Magog,(RUSSIA) the chief prince of Meshech(MOSCOW)and Tubal,(TOBOLSK) and prophesy against him,
3 And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech(MOSCOW) and Tubal:
4 And I will turn thee back, and put hooks into thy jaws,(GOD FORCES THE RUSSIA-MUSLIMS TO MARCH) and I will bring thee forth, and all thine army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed with all sorts of armour, even a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords:

6 Gomer,(GERMANY) and all his bands; the house of Togarmah (TURKEY)of the north quarters, and all his bands:(SUDAN,AFRICA) and many people with thee.
7 Be thou prepared, and prepare for thyself, thou, and all thy company that are assembled unto thee, and be thou a guard unto them.
8 After many days thou shalt be visited: in the latter years thou shalt come into the land that is brought back from the sword, and is gathered out of many people, against the mountains of Israel, which have been always waste: but it is brought forth out of the nations, and they shall dwell safely all of them.
9 Thou shalt ascend and come like a storm, thou shalt be like a cloud to cover the land, thou, and all thy bands, and many people with thee.(RUSSIA-EGYPT AND MUSLIMS)
10 Thus saith the Lord GOD; It shall also come to pass, that at the same time shall things come into thy mind, and thou shalt think an evil thought:
11 And thou shalt say, I will go up to the land of unwalled villages; I will go to them that are at rest, that dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates,
12 To take a spoil, and to take a prey; to turn thine hand upon the desolate places that are now inhabited, and upon the people that are gathered out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and goods, that dwell in the midst of the land.

UK More Interested in Islam, 100,000 Have Converted
by Maayana Miskin JAN 5,11
A study conducted by Swansea University for the British group Faith Matters has found that UK citizens are increasingly interested in Islam, with the number of converts to Islam nearly doubling in 10 years. An estimated total of 100,000 have converted to Islam, 5,200 of them in 2010.In 2001, it was estimated that 60,000 British citizens had converted to Islam.Of the most recent converts, two-thirds are women. Most are white and native to Britain. The average age of new converts is 27.
One in four believe there is a natural conflict between being devoutly Muslim and being a British citizen. More than half said they had met with a negative response from family regarding their conversion.When asked what they believe to be the negative aspects of British society, the converts cited alcohol consumption, sexual permissiveness, and unrestrained consumerism.Similar studies in France and Germany found that approximately 4,000 people convert to Islam each year in both countries.
Faith Matters director Fiyaz Mughal said the precise number of converts to Islam is unknown, but that it is clear that the number has risen dramatically over the past decade. Converts could play an important role in both British and Muslim society by helping to reconcile the two worlds, and by disentangling cultural norms... which blur the true essence of Islam, Mughal opined.Britain has faced challenges integrating its Muslim population. A 2008 report showed that one-third of Muslim students justified killing in the name of religion, and a recent BBC report found that thousands of Muslim children in Britain are being taught to hate Jews, Israelis, and homosexuals.In some cases British Muslims have actively fought Israel, by sending aid to Hamas in Gaza or by joining Hamas in Gaza.In 2009 the government decided to combat homegrown Muslim terrorism with a program to screen Muslim schoolchildren for potential terrorists.(IsraelNationalNews.com)

Confirmed: Ventura’s Conspiracy Theory Episodes Disappearing from DVRs
Kurt Nimmo Infowars.com January 5, 2010
Emails sent to Infowars.com and comments posted on Alex Jones’ flagship websites today provide multiple confirmations that episodes of Jesse Ventura’s popular truTV show Conspiracy Theory are disappearing from the DVRs of TiVo, Comcast, DirectTV and AT&T customers.Shows finding their way to the digital memory hole include the already heavily censored Police State episode and shows on the JFK assassination and the worldwide water conspiracy.All of the shows that we have recorded on our Direct TV DVR of Jesse Ventura’s Show season 1 & 2 was removed without mine and my husband’s permission, an email received on December 27 explains. We do not have any setting’s on the DVR which would allow or permit the shows to be erased and deleted from our Direct TV Receiver/ Recorder.Alex is right, a comment on the InfowarMovies states. I had 7 episodes of Ventura in my directv dvr. All of them marked as keep. The police state episode is gone. I think when they do code updates is when they erase. This is nuts! I have AT&T Uverse and the Fema camp episode has been erased from my DVR, reports a comment on Paul Joesph Watson’s story this morning about the episode appearing on YouTube.TiVo has admitted monitoring DVR units. For instance, in 2004, the company said Janet Jackson’s wardrobe malfunction during the Super Bowl was the most replayed moment ever measured. TiVo said it used its technology to measure audience behavior among 20,000 users during the Super Bowl, CNN reported on February 23, 2004.On December 2, Infowars.com reported upon a series of inconsistencies with the re-airing and promotion for the Police State FEMA camp segment.
The episode was de-listed from TruTV’s website, bonus clips associated with the episode were removed from the website, its encore airings were canceled and it was not played during the recent Conspiracy Theory marathon, Infowars.com reported at the time.On December 17, Ventura went on Alex’s show and confirmed the government and Homeland Security put pressure on Time Warner to pull the show. TruTV is owned by Turner Broadcasting, a subsidiary of Time Warner. Tennessee Rep. Steve Cohen also turned up the heat on TruTV.Whatever the full cause of the behind-the-scenes pressure, it is clear that the government does not want audiences discussing FEMA camps and Fusion Centers or looking up H.R. 645, the bill named and read in the episode that authorizes FEMA emergency centers, we reported on December 3.Alex has done all he can to make sure the TruTV series is packed with hard-hitting facts and full of real, substantial issues. Though the show employs the dramatic techniques used throughout TV land, this is not the typical fluff. People had better understand that these are truly groundbreaking shows that are discussing damning evidence that the establishment doesn’t want sinking into the minds of a mainstream audience. Who knows if tonight’s water episode investigating lithium, uranium and fluoride being added to drinking water as a means of population control will itself even air or be replayed after the fact.DVR services deleting the episodes in question from the machines of customers represents a new level of corporate meddling at the behest of the establishment in its attempt to shut down the growing truth movement as it methodically exposes on multiple fronts the criminal behavior and corruption at the highest levels of government.It also reveals how corporations and government are using computer and digital technology to remove media the establishment wants to shuffle off to the memory hole.Winston Smith, the protagonist of George Orwell’s dystopian novel 1984, used a small chute at the Ministry of Truth leading to an incinerator to disappear documents and other records frowned upon by the state.In 2011, the process is far easier and more sinister – electronic media only need be deleted to disappear forever.

Heavy floods leave at least 35 dead in Brazil
JAN 6,11
SAO PAULO – Authorities in Brazil say four people from the same family have died in a mudslide in the interior of Sao Paulo state, and civil defense officials say heavy flooding have killed at least 35 people and forced more than 30,000 out of their homes across the country.Officials in the city of Jundiai said Thursday the four people, including two girls, died when their house collapsed because of a mudslide triggered by downpours.The worst hit state is Minas Gerais, where civil defense authorities said on Thursday that 16 people either drowned or were buried in mudslides. More than 13,000 were forced to seek shelter.Heavy rains since Christmas in Sao Paulo, Rio de Janeiro and Espirito Santo states have killed more than 20 people and left about 20,500 homeless.
Northeast braces for snow; Plains stay dry
JAN 6,11
NEW YORK (Reuters) – Temperatures in the Northeast ranged from the 20s in northern New England to the high 30s Fahrenheit on Thursday as the region braced for a snowy, windy weekend.Continued dry weather in the western Plains hard red winter wheat region remained a problem with only light precipitation expected for the next 10 days. Forecasters said there is no immediate threat from cold weather but a turn to bitter cold at the end of the 10-day period bears watching.No significant cold weather threats are seen for the Midwest soft red winter wheat region, despite mention of much-below normal temperatures at times.
Draining flooded Australia mines could take weeks By Rebekah Kebede and Daniel Munoz – Thu Jan 6, 4:42 am ET
ROCKHAMPTON/PERTH, Australia (Reuters) – Australia's flood-stricken coal industry faced lengthy disruptions on Thursday, with one miner saying it could take weeks to drain its pits of water and a major port suspending export shipments because of a lack of coal.Floods have swamped mines in Queensland state, paralyzing operations that produce 35 percent of Australia's estimated 259 million tonnes of exportable coal. Australia contributes two-thirds of global coking-coal exports, needed to make steel.About 200,000 people scattered across an area the size of France and Germany combined have been affected by the flooding in Queensland. Damage from the floods, the worst in the state in 50 years, has been estimated at $5 billion.One of Queensland's two major coal ports, Gladstone, suspended exports on Thursday, starved of sufficient supplies from water-logged and marooned mines further inland.
Gladstone port normally blends together different coals at the waterfront before loading ships, but a port spokeswoman said it had insufficient quantities to continue blending to the same standard. It was now awaiting further guidance from miners.It's the coal companies' call as to whether they start loading that coal or not, the spokeswoman told Reuters.One commodities analyst estimated that 45 to 50 million tonnes of metallurgical-grade coal needed to make steel were under force majeure declarations, which temporarily release miners from delivery obligations.That doesn't mean those tonnes are lost to the market, they are just saying there is a risk they might not be delivered on time, said UBS commodities analyst Tom Price.Also, production of roughly 8 percent of the world's thermal coal production -- used in power generation -- has been temporarily eliminated by the flooding, according to Australia & New Zealand Bank analyst Mark Pervan.Analysts expect steel coals to rise as much as a third to $300 a tonne in the aftermath of the floods, sweeping thermal coal prices higher in the process.You can't have a lift in metallurgical coal prices without dragging up thermal coal, Price said.
Asian steel-makers are anxious over Australian supplies, worried the disruptions could outlast their stockpiles, which typically hold around a month's worth of consumption.London-listed Anglo American, one of the nation's top four miners of steel-making coal, said it could take some weeks to pump water out of its flooded mines and that it was too early to say when its collieries could resume operation.Our focus is currently on mobilizing our people and other resources and de-watering flooded coal pits, which we estimate will take some weeks, Seamus French, head of the group's metallurgical coal division, said in a statement.Anglo has about seven coal mines in Queensland, the state that accounts for most of Australia's coking-coal exports.Anglo's major rivals, Rio Tinto, Xstrata and BHP Billiton, have also been hit by the floods, and all have made force majeure declarations.The flooding is already receding in some coal fields, but all four major producers still face supply disruptions and cannot say when operations would return to normal.In 2008, flooding stalled some mines for as long as six months, but others began producing within six weeks, said Andrew Harrington, an analyst at Patersons Securities in Sydney.Mines then raised output to recoup losses and ended the year about 10 percent below where they otherwise would have been.This time around, it's happening a lot earlier, it looks a lot worse, and we're still seeing more rainfall, said Harrington.
CAMELS, HORSES AND SNAKES
Floodwaters have begun to slowly recede in some districts in Queensland, but were still rising in some areas further south, including around the town of St George. In Rockhampton, a cattle town of 75,000, muddy flood waters had dropped a few inches overnight despite more heavy rains but it will take days before a cleanup can begin. On pockets of higher land, camels and horses grazed on people's front lawns, while residents relied on boats to fetch supplies.Most homes are built on stilts in the flood-prone area, so water had not risen above the floors in most cases.Hospitals in central Queensland have also been stockpiling anti-venom, media reported, after snakes sought refuge in homes, including the deadly brown snake.
ECONOMIC COST PUT AT $5 BILLION
Three people have been killed in the floods and hundreds left homeless. The economic cost of the inundation, which some scientists are linking to global warming and rising sea temperatures, is already estimated at around $5 billion.Roads, rail lines and bridges have been submerged, and authorities are waiting for the waters to recede before they can assess how much vital infrastructure needs rebuilding.
Australian stocks were flat on Thursday, undermined in part by worries over the impact of floods on mining profits.Dalrymple Bay, the country's largest coal export port, is operating but said on Thursday that deliveries to the port could dry up unless mines started reopening by the weekend.If we can't get it in, we can't ship it out, said Dalrymple spokesman Greg Smith. Typically the port receives about 230,000-240,000 tonnes of coal daily from mines.QR National, the country's biggest coal freight business, said on Thursday it was ramping up operations on a reopened rail line, enabling coal to reach the coast, but problems remained elsewhere on other, larger lines.QR National's big Blackwater line remained closed, impacting operations for Wesfarmers, BHP, Xstrata and Rio Tinto.(Additional reporting by James Regan and Amy Pyett)(Editing by Mark Bendeich)
Heavy rains hit Australia's flood-drenched northeast
by Amy Coopes – Thu Jan 6, 1:54 am ET
ROCKHAMPTON, Australia (AFP) – Heavy rains threatened further flooding in Australia's drenched northeast Thursday as besieged Rockhampton cut supplies to irresponsible residents who refused to leave water-bound homes.Torrential downpours could cause flash-flooding and worsen existing floods, the weather bureau said, as water levels slowly started to recede in regional centre Rockhampton, a town virtually surrounded by a brown inland sea.Australia's coal-mining and farming belt near Brisbane is suffering biblical floods across an area the size of Texas, after La Nina, a weather system, deluged Queensland state with its wettest year on record.
Waters peaked in Rockhampton at lower levels than feared and slowly started to recede, while downstream other communities braced for the floods. The disaster, described as the state's worst, has inundated or cut off 40 towns.Entire towns have been airlifted as the murky tide gushes across Queensland, destroying crops, roads and bridges and sweeping 10 people to their deaths, along with thousands of animals.
The crisis has cost about Aus$1 billion ($1 billion US) in lost production at Queensland's coking coal mines, which account for half the world's supply, putting upward inflationary pressure on the shaky global economy.Meanwhile, thousands of people have evacuated or are trying to salvage homes and belongings, while dealing with the threat of poisonous snakes, crocodiles and disease-carrying mosquitoes as they negotiate the sludge and rain.Rockhampton's mayor Brad Carter angrily slammed residents, including those with children, who refused to evacuate and now relied on food and groceries brought by emergency personnel wading through snake-infested waters.We have taken a decision, and we make it very clear, that we cannot put emergency services resources at risk bringing in those supplies, Carter said.They have to now respect and understand that because they make that choice... they will not be getting resupply of essential services, goods and grocery items provided by emergency services personnel.Acting police superintendent David Peff said that wading into the waters -- sometimes up to chest height -- was dangerous for his men and backed the mayor's pleas to isolated residents in the town of 75,000.Every time we put police or SES (State Emergency Service) people into that water... my personal concern is people that are helping will end up being bitten by a snake, Peff told reporters.Residents of Condamine, which was completely evacuated, were making their way back to the deserted town, while only about 100 of Emerald's 11,000 inhabitants remained in emergency shelters as of Wednesday night.Australia's sodden 2010 -- the third wettest year on record -- broke a decade-old drought in some areas and brought the unusual sight of waterfalls cascading off Uluru, or Ayers Rock, as torrents raced along parched riverbeds.Lush, green landscapes in New South Wales state forced film-makers to postpone shooting for Mad Max 4, set in a post-apocalypse desert, while an Outback yachting regatta went ahead for the first time in 10 years.

BP, Transocean shares shrug off U.S. oil spill report
By Tom Bergin - JAN 6,11
LONDON (Reuters) – Shares in BP and Transocean rose on Thursday as investors bet a new U.S. Presidential panel report that spread the blame for the country's worst-ever oil spill meant the firms would avoid the massive costs of a gross negligence charge.BP's London-listed shares were up 1.6 percent at 507.6 pence at 1100 GMT (6 a.m. ET), while shares in Transocean's Swiss-listed shares were up 3.9 percent. The STOXX 600 European oil and gas sector index was up 1.2 percent, on higher oil prices.
One top 10 investor in BP said the fact that the blame for the blowout was shared with drilling contractor Transocean and well cementer Halliburton suggested the London-based oil major was less likely to face gross negligence charges.Under U.S. law, BP faces fines of $5 billion because the spill happened on its exploration block.However, the fine could rise above $21 billion if Europe's second-largest oil company by market value was found to have been grossly negligent in the run-up to the blast.Peter Hitchens, oil analyst at Panmure Gordon, said comments made in the report that the management failure which caused the explosion on the Deepwater Horizon rig reflected industry-wide flaws, also made BP appear less culpable.And while the report was damning, Richard Griffith, analyst at Evolution Securities said it could also mean BP can offload some of the costs of cleaning up the spill onto its contractors.The report may provide grounds for BP to claw back monies from license partners and possibly Transocean and Halliburton, he said in a research note.

Asia scrambles to contain food inflation By Neil Fullick And Naveen Thukral – JAN 6,11
SINGAPORE (Reuters) – Record high food prices are moving to the top of the agenda for many Asian policymakers as the prospect of higher inflation in 2011 poses a major threat to the region's strong revival from the global financial crisis.The United Nations' food agency (FAO) said on Wednesday that food prices hit a record high last month, moving beyond levels of 2008, when riots broke out in countries as far afield as Egypt, Cameroon and Haiti.Food inflation in many Asian countries, including China and India, is already in double digits, raising fears that the price pressures could spread more broadly to other sectors and pose a threat to both economic and social stability as millions of Asians live in poverty.The FAO said sugar and meat were at their highest since its records began in 1990. Prices were at their highest since 2008 crisis levels for wheat, rice, corn and other cereals.
Benchmark prices solely in Asia for rice suggested a different picture.The region's staple food now stands at $535 per tonne -- less than half its 2008 levels of more than $1,000 a tonne that prompted several governments at the time to impose curbs on exports to protect their domestic markets.However, the fact that rice is far from the lofty levels of the 2007/2008 food crisis should offer no comfort for policymakers.I wouldn't be terribly surprised if 2011 resembles in many ways 2008, said Frederic Neumann, regional economist at HSBC in Hong Kong.Food price inflation could really go into double digits across the region and rise to such an extent that it undermines the purchasing power of households and as a result then slows consumer demand and overall economic growth, he said.And that's a problem for Asian economic growth. But really it's also a problem for the rest of the world because as the Asian consumer increasingly is helping to stabilise world demand, it's actually a challenge of wider global significance.Surging food prices have proved a trigger for social protests in the past, forcing governments to cave in to demands for action. They were a factor in the fall from power of Indonesia's long-term autocrat Suharto in 1998.Last year, wheat futures prices rose 47 percent, buoyed by a series of weather events including drought in Russia and its Black Sea neighbours. U.S. corn rose more than 50 percent and U.S. soybeans jumped 34 percent.
PRICES TO KEEP RISING
Luke Matthews, a commodity strategist at Commonwealth Bank of Australia, said there was little reason to expect any let up in the global rally in food prices.We do believe that the structural drivers behind high food prices are likely to persist for some time, he said. We have tight stocks in the corn and sugar markets, we have world wheat stocks susceptible to turn lower with forecasts of La Nina to persist for the next 3 months or so.La Nina is a weather pattern that brings cooling temperatures, resulting in higher rainfall in Australia, a major wheat and sugar exporter, and parts of Southeast Asia.The structural drivers make food commodities and the stocks of food companies hot investment sectors this year, said Terence Wong, an analyst at brokerage DMG in Singapore.He cited vegetable grower and processor China Minzhong and animal drug maker China Animal Healthcare as his top tips in the local market. Fan Cheuk Wan, head of Asia Pacific research at the private banking division of Credit Suisse, favours Indonesian palm oil firm Indofood Agri Resources and suggested investors avoid companies that could get hit by price controls. World Bank President Robert Zoellick urged governments in a newspaper opinion column to avoid protectionist measures as food prices rise and called upon the Group of 20 leading economies to take steps to make sure the poor get adequate food supply. Still, Asia's rapidly rising consumption as developing economies such as India, China and Indonesia emerge on the world stage is a major factor behind the rise in food prices.China, for example, is expected to buy 60 percent of internationally traded soybeans in 2010/11, double its purchases of four years earlier.Several countries have implemented measures to try to keep food prices under control, worried about a repeat of the 2007/2008 crisis, when surging commodity prices prompted a jump in inflation and left many countries with a deep trade deficit.
India's food prices rose to a one-year high of more than 18 percent in the year to the end of December, data on Thursday showed. That, along with rising fuel prices, is the main reason analysts expect the central bank to raise rates this month. The Indian government has operated a range of measures for years to ensure stable food prices, but since last year has boosted the release of national stocks of grains and has pledged to continue with duty-free imports of crude vegetable oils.In China, several cities have implemented direct controls to limit food price increases and the central government has vowed to eliminate speculation in the country's commodities markets.The cost of food rose 11.7 percent in the year to November, while non-food items were up just 1.9 percent. But, reflecting concerns that inflation is creeping beyond food to the wider economy, consumer goods prices and housing costs showed clear jumps.Fu Bingtao, an economist with the Agricultural Bank of China in Beijing, said in a report that grains, the country's most important food, would rise in price in 2011 by 10 percent, adding to an 11.7 percent rise in 2010.Speculative trading and hoarding of specific agricultural products may continue, he said.Indonesia's president called on Thursday for households to plant food to help combat inflation. Chillis, used widely in Indonesian cooking, have risen fivefold in the past year. [ID:nL3E7C60I7]
POLICY RESPONSE
Higher interest rates do little to ease pressure on food prices. Demand is inelastic because people have to eat, but current price pressures are largely supply-led, so tighter monetary policy would not directly help.The danger, however, is that food inflation spreads to the wider economy.I think there's an urgent need to be more pre-emptive in tightening monetary policy to prevent some of these inflation pressures from erupting, said Neumann.Neumann said some central banks had taken some action in terms of monetary tightening, but more needed to be done.On average, interest rates in Asia are about 150 basis points below the neutral level, that is, even if we see marginal rate hikes coming through, this wouldn't necessarily amount to a tightening of monetary policy, rather an easing of the stimulus.Therefore much more aggressive action would be warranted at this stage.South Korea, like other Asian countries that run trade and current account surpluses, could give more room to its currency to rise to offset rising import costs on food.But that presents another dilemma for policymakers trying to curb a flood of portfolio capital from investors turning away from the sluggish growth in developed economies.Higher interest rates or the likelihood of a rising currency would just encourage further inflows, analysts say. Policymakers will also be worried that a rising currency will hurt exports, the major pillar of many economies.(Reporting by Reuters bureaux; Writing by Neil Fullick, Editing by Ron Popeski)

BRUSSELS (AFP) – Confidence in the eurozone economy rose to the highest level for three years last month, a bright spot in a bad year which the single currency area wants to put behind it, key EU data showed on Thursday.Regional powerhouses France and Germany carried the stronger-than-expected rise, but in a sign that the euro has yet to shake off its troubles, southern members hit by high debts and public deficits continued to fall back.The survey underlines the view that the peripheral economies are set for another very tough year, said Ben May, European economist at market research firm Capital Economics.The Economic Sentiment Indicator published by the European Commission rose by 1.1 points to 106.2 points across the 16-nation single currency area -- now 17 since Estonia joined on January 1, 2011. It was the highest level since it peaked at 106.5 points in October 2007.In the wider 27-nation European Union, confidence rose 1.0 point to 106.1 points.Sentiment in most EU countries improved but confidence fell in Spain and Greece which were forced to implement tough austerity measures to bring down high deficits.France led the pack with a gain of 2.5 points, followed by 2.4 points in the Netherlands and 1.5 points in Germany. But Spain fell back 0.9 points while Greece retreated by 1.4 points.It is notable that there were marked divergences in sentiment between the individual economies, reinforcing the impression of a two-speed eurozone, said Howard Archer, chief European economist at IHS Global Insight.
In another sign of Germany's robust economic health, industrial orders leapt by a surprise 5.2 percent in November from the level in October, according to national data.The eurozone's debt crisis began last year with a bailout of ?110 billion ($144 billion) for Greece and was followed by a rescue of ?67 billion for Ireland in December. Analysts warn that Spain and Portugal may be next in line for help.The high confidence in the eurozone economy in December was fuelled by strong business sentiment, but consumers were less than buoyant, the European Commission survey showed.The data suggest that consumers may have been more spooked by the heightened eurozone sovereign debt crisis than businesses,Archer said.It is also likely that consumers are becoming increasingly concerned about the fiscal tightening that will increasingly kick in across the Eurozone during 2011, as well as by higher inflation, he said.Sentiment in industry rose sharply, by 3.6 points in the EU and 3.3 points in the eurozone, while consumer confidence fell 1.1 points in the EU and 1.6 points in the eurozone.In another indication of consumer jitters, retail sales in the eurozone dropped by 0.8 percent in November compared to the previous month's level, according to the Eurostat data agency.

Fear stalks Egypt's churches over Coptic Christmas
By Sarah Mikhail and Yasmine Saleh - JAN 6,11
CAIRO (Reuters) – Egypt tightened security around churches on the eve of Coptic Christmas after a New Year's Day bombing killed up to 23 and sparked angry protests by Christians demanding more protection from Muslim militants.Officials suspect an al Qaeda-inspired bomber was behind the blast outside a church in the port city of Alexandria. Islamist websites had carried repeated threats to attack churches and have vowed to strike again.The blast ripped through a crowd, scattering body parts, destroying cars and shattering windows.I no longer want to stay in this country, said Emad Atef, 25, a Christian who is a carpenter. I am getting the paperwork to leave. I don't feel safe and neither do those around me.Extra police were deployed outside main churches, streets nearby were cleared of cars and some roads were blocked by security measures.Egypt's Muslims and Christians have co-existed for centuries, with occasional clashes often the result of family or business disputes or cross-faith relationships, not ideology. Egypt church attack to fuel sectarian tension.Christians, who form one tenth of the population, complain of discrimination in the job market and a lack of representation in government, the army and business. A perception of growing intolerance is leading some to shun their Muslim compatriots.
The church bombed at New Year was previously targeted in 2006 when a man assaulted worshippers at two churches during Mass, killing one person and wounding five.A year later, Christian shops in the area were attacked during the Muslim Eid al-Adha holiday after rumours spread of a love affair between a Muslim woman and Christian man.One year ago, six Copts and a Muslim policeman were killed in a drive-by shooting outside a church after midnight Mass. Orthodox Copts celebrate Christmas on January 7.Copts voiced fury last year when Muslim radicals chanted slogans against Christians and insulted Coptic Orthodox Pope Shenouda at demonstrations as police stood by.
RECIPE FOR VIOLENCE
The Alexandria attack was the worst in decades against Christians and drew attention to the state's handling of sectarian riots. Rights groups say Egyptian police have been too slow to punish violence motivated by religion, sending a message that it is acceptable.Copts said the government should prosecute the rioters instead of urging victims to accept reconciliation. It's a recipe for a recurrence of these violent attacks,said Hossam Bahgat, head of the Egyptian Initiative for Personal Rights.
Some pointed to a deeper problem -- a gradual Islamisation of education promoting a single, Islamic version of Egypt's identity that belies a diverse cultural history.
Our school books are preaching Islamisation, said Youssef Sidhom, the Christian editor of weekly newspaper Watani. Coptic history of Egypt is to a vast extent withdrawn... The syllabus is using Islam as the source of all traditions and norms.
Some young Copts, usually fiercely loyal to their church leaders, have begun to criticize them for keeping too low a profile and allowing political Islam to influence state policy.Many within the Coptic community are now feeling a threat to their very survival, their very presence, said Bahgat. Two Christians died as result of a riot in a Cairo suburb in November, when about 3,000 Copts hurled stones at police after the authorities blocked building of a church. Muslims lobbed rocks at the Christians from behind police lines.We are being attacked, one attack after another, and are about to explode, said 33-year-old aluminum worker Medhat Malak, who was constructing the church.President Hosni Mubarak called in a speech for unity after the Alexandria attack, saying the bomber targeted all Egyptians.State television has featured Christian-themed programing in the run up to Orthodox Christmas and some Egyptian Muslims rushed to express solidarity after the Alexandria attack.One Muslim made a page on Facebook entitled Being together in Christmas Eve ... Either we LIVE together or DIE together.By God's will I shall go to church tonight, said Ishac Helmy, who sells plastic slippers. It's true that I'm afraid, but Jesus told us, Fear not for I am with you all the days, and that gives me courage.(Writing and additional reporting by Tom Pfeiffer; editing by Mark Heinrich)

16 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste.
17 Judgment also will I lay to the line, and righteousness to the plummet: and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding place.
18 And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it.
19 From the time that it goeth forth it shall take you: for morning by morning shall it pass over, by day and by night: and it shall be a vexation only to understand the report.
Israeli, Egyptian leaders to discuss peacemaking
– Thu Jan 6, 5:28 am ET
JERUSALEM – Israel's prime minister says he will discuss Mideast peacemaking with Egypt's leader, as well as the common threat posed by Iranian-backed militant groups.
Benjamin Netanyahu says Gaza-based Hamas militants and Lebanese Hezbollah guerrillas want to disturb the quiet but we will not let them.Both groups have warred with Israel. Egypt is worried by their Islamic militancy and Iranian ties.Netanyahu said in a statement that he and Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak would also discuss stalemated Israeli-Palestinian peace talks when they meet in Egypt later Thursday.The Palestinians say they will not resume talks without a complete freeze in settlement building.Israel rejects that demand.
Angry crowd forces Israeli PM to halt speech
– Wed Jan 5, 4:27 pm ET
JERUSALEM – Angry relatives of 42 Israelis killed in a huge forest fire last month forced Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to stop his speech Wednesday at a ceremony honoring the dead.Family members shouted that he should be held responsible for the handling of the disaster response. Others directed their anger at Interior Minister Eli Yishai, who was escorted out of the hall. Firefighting services are part of his ministry.Israel's firefighting services were unprepared for the huge fire, which destroyed swaths of forest in Israel's north. Since Israel lacked any suitable aircraft, Netanyahu had to appeal for help from abroad. Several nations, including the United States, sent firefighting planes that helped douse the blaze after four days.During Wednesday's disturbance, bodyguards rushed toward the podium and formed a line to keep people away from Netanyahu.Relatives yelled at him to resign and called the ceremony a disgrace. They objected to his attempt to identify with their personal pain without taking responsibility for the tragedy.We will find out the truth. We will not rest until we find out the truth, shouted one man from the crowd.
Netanyahu had to stop talking for several minutes while security officers restored order.Among those who heckled Netanyahu was Danny Rosen, the partner of Israel's highest-ranking female police officer, Ahuva Tomer, the police chief of the northern city of Haifa. She was killed when flames enveloped a bus she was accompanying. It was carrying prison service workers toward a jail, where they were sent to evacuate prisoners.The flames reached the outskirts of Haifa, Israel's third-largest city.
Netanyahu has attended a number of functions and meetings of officials in the aftermath of the fire, by far the largest forest fire in Israel's history.
