Merkel and Sarkozy plan true economic government
Today AUG 17,11 @ 09:28 By Honor Mahony
Under pressure to restore confidence in the eurozone, the leaders of France and Germany on Tuesday (16 August) outlined plans for further economic integration but shied away from financial measures seen by markets as necessary to stem the euro debt crisis.Following the two-hour talks in Paris, President Nicolas Sarkozy and Chancellor Angela Merkel said they would work towards a common corporation tax by 2013 and to co-ordinate their annual national budgets.More generally, they suggested eurozone leaders should meet twice a year and that all single currency countries should enact constitutional changes requiring balanced budgets.Germany and France feel absolutely determined to strengthen the euro as our common currency and further develop it,said Merkel after the discussions.The status quo is impossible, said Sarkozy, who noted that both Paris and Berlin want a true European economic government.The two leaders pledged to revive the idea of a financial transaction tax - a proposal that has been regularly mentioned in Brussels in recent months but has failed to get traction among member states.We are aware that this is a step-by-step process that cannot be agreed at once, but we are convinced it is right for Europe, Merkel said.
Enough?
The proposals were welcomed by EU commission president Jose Manuel Barroso as representing an important political contribution by the leaders of the two largest euro area economies to this debate and the on-going work.But others dismissed it as too little. The Franco-German meeting has not produced anything particularly new or useful, said Sony Kapoor, managing director of Re-Define, an economic policy thinktank.The highly-anticipated meeting followed fresh turbulence in the markets last week, with Sarkozy coming under intense pressure amid speculation that France may be next in line to lose its AAA credit ranking.The two measures that many analysts believe will help ease the eurozone's debt crisis – the issuance of eurobonds and increasing the size of the eurozone’s €440 billion rescue fund – were not on the table, however.Eurobonds can be imagined one day, but at the end of the European integration process, not at the beginning, said Sarkozy. He added that the fund's size is sufficient.It is often said that eurobonds are a last resort for the eurozone but I don't think the eurozone is dependent on last resorts, said Merkel. I don’t think eurobonds help us.The leaders' reluctance to discuss eurobonds reflects deep hostility in Germany and other northern countries, such as the Netherlands and Finland, towards what they see as helping financially undisciplined countries without firm guarantees in return.Merkel and Sarkozy's plans did not have an immediately positive effect on markets. Reuters reported that US stocks dropped more than one percent as details of the proposals emerged.The meeting also took place amid more bad news about the eurozone, with second quarter results for Germany, released Tuesday, showing that GDP increased by only 0.1 percent.
Van Rompuy to be eurozone president
Details of the meeting are to be sent to European Council president Herman Van Rompuy today (17 September).The former Belgian prime minister, who to date has had no formal role in the eurozone, is set to benefit politically from the crisis.He is expected to head up the twice yearly meetings of eurozone leaders and take a more co-ordinating role.This could also help reduce the number of disparate voices speaking out on eurozone issues. The depth of the crisis in 17-nation single currency has meant that every off-the-cuff remark by a leader has the potential to move markets.
REBUILT 3RD TEMPLE (THE EU DICTATORS TEMPLE)
ISAIAH 30:10-15
10 Which say to the seers, See not; and to the prophets, Prophesy not unto us right things, speak unto us smooth things, prophesy deceits:
11 Get you out of the way, turn aside out of the path, cause the Holy One of Israel to cease from before us.
12 Wherefore thus saith the Holy One of Israel, Because ye despise this word, and trust in oppression and perverseness, and stay thereon:
13 Therefore this iniquity shall be to you as a breach ready to fall, swelling out in a high wall, whose breaking cometh suddenly at an instant.
14 And he shall break it as the breaking of the potters’ vessel that is broken in pieces; he shall not spare: so that there shall not be found in the bursting of it a sherd to take fire from the hearth, or to take water withal out of the pit.
15 For thus saith the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel; In returning and rest shall ye be saved; in quietness and in confidence shall be your strength: and ye would not.
16 But ye said, No; for we will flee upon horses; therefore shall ye flee: and, We will ride upon the swift; therefore shall they that pursue you be swift.
REVELATION 11:1-2
1 And there was given me a reed like unto a rod: and the angel stood, saying, Rise, and measure the temple of God, and the altar, and them that worship therein.
2 But the court which is without the temple leave out, and measure it not; for it is given unto the Gentiles: and the holy city shall they tread under foot forty and two months.
DANIEL 9:27
27 And he( THE ROMAN,EU PRESIDENT) shall confirm the covenant with many for one week:(1X7=7 YEARS) and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease,(3 1/2 yrs in TEMPLE SACRIFICES STOPPED) and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.
REBUILT 4TH TEMPLE (THE TRUE MESSIAHS TEMPLE)
ZECHARIAH 6:12-13
12 And speak unto him, saying, Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, saying, Behold the man whose name is The BRANCH; and he shall grow up out of his place, and he shall build the temple of the LORD:
13 Even he shall build the temple of the LORD; and he shall bear the glory, and shall sit and rule upon his throne; and he shall be a priest upon his throne: and the counsel of peace shall be between them both.
ISAIAH 60:9-10
9 Surely the isles shall wait for me, and the ships of Tarshish first, to bring thy sons from far, their silver and their gold with them, unto the name of the LORD thy God, and to the Holy One of Israel, because he hath glorified thee.
10 And the sons of strangers shall build up thy walls, and their kings shall minister unto thee: for in my wrath I smote thee, but in my favour have I had mercy on thee.
ISAIAH 2:1-5
1 The word that Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem.
2 And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the LORD's house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it.
3 And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.
4 And he shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people: and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.
5 O house of Jacob, come ye, and let us walk in the light of the LORD.
MARK 11:9-10,15-17
9 And they that went before, and they that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna; Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord:
10 Blessed be the kingdom of our father David, that cometh in the name of the Lord: Hosanna in the highest.
15 And they come to Jerusalem: and Jesus went into the temple, and began to cast out them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves;
16 And would not suffer that any man should carry any vessel through the temple.
17 And he taught, saying unto them, Is it not written, My house shall be called of all nations the house of prayer? but ye have made it a den of thieves.

The PA denies Jewish history in Jerusalem-The Jewish Temple is the alleged Temple
Examples from April - July 2011 by Itamar Marcus and Nan Jacques Zilberdik
Earlier this week, on the Jewish day of mourning known as Tisha B'Av, which commemorates the anniversary of the destruction of the Temple, the official PA daily denied the Temple's existence, referring to it as the destruction of the alleged Temple and the so-called destruction.For years, Palestinian Authority leaders have actively denied Jewish history both in ancient Judea/Israel and in Jerusalem in particular. Palestinian Media Watch has documented this ongoing PA policy of historical revisionism, which centers on the denial that a Jewish Temple ever existed in Jerusalem. PA political and religious leaders, officials, and even academics consistently refer to the Temple as the alleged Temple. [Arabic: Al-Haikal Al-Maz'oom].The Palestinian claims that the Temple never existed and that Jews have no history in the Land of Israel not only contradict Jewish sources, Christian sources, and the archeological record, but contradict the Quran as well. The Quran in Sura 17:2-7 mentions the Children of Israel's two periods of independence in the land and the destruction of both the First and the Second Temple: ...to enter the Temple even as they entered it for the first time, and to lay waste...The PA accuses Israel of forging a false Jewish history in the land while at the same time stealing Palestinian history, culture, and heritage. The Palestinians refer to these actions as Judaization. The main target of this Judaization is the Al-Aqsa Mosque, which Israel purportedly conspires to destroy in order to build the Jewish Temple.Advisor to PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas, Ahmad Al-Ruweidi, recently denied the existence of the Temple while commenting on an Israeli excavation of a tunnel:I personally visited the entrance to this tunnel, and it is clear that they [the Israelis] have built it modeled on the alleged Temple, as a basis for transferring the Temple in the future into the Al-Aqsa Mosque.The following are examples from the PMW archives from April to July 2011. The examples are arranged in two categories: PA leaders refer to the Jewish Temple as the alleged temple and PA denial of Jewish history in the land and accusations of heritage theft.PA leaders refer to the Jewish Temple as the alleged temple.
PA daily news report: The destruction of the alleged Temple
"Since Monday morning, groups of extremist Jews have been roaming the courtyards of Al-Aqsa Mosque (i.e., the Temple Mount) one after the other, under heavy police protection, on the occasion of the [week of the] so-called destruction of the Temple... This Sunday, the occupation's police handed the shop owners in the Market of the Cotton Merchants... which leads to the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque, an order forcing them to close their shops on Monday afternoon (i.e., the eve of the anniversary of the destruction of the Temple - Tisha B'av), in order to facilitate the arrival of the settlers to the Market, for the sake of holding special Talmudic rituals on the occasion of the destruction of the alleged Temple.

Abbas' advisor: Israel wants to transfer the alleged Temple into the Al-Aqsa Mosque
PA TV News broadcast, main report the Committee to Protect Silwan's report concerning the Israeli excavation of a tunnel.PA TV newsreader: [The Committee to Protect Silwan] noted that some of the Israeli sources had said that a gold bell had been found in the tunnel, belonging to what they call the Second Temple Period. This once again highlights the efforts of the Israeli side to forge the history of the holy city.Interview with Ahmad Al-Ruweidi, advisor to President Abbas, on the Committee's report:Abbas' advisor, Al-Ruweidi: I personally visited the entrance to this tunnel, and it is clear that they [the Israelis] have built it modeled on the alleged Temple, as a basis for transferring the Temple in the future into the Al-Aqsa Mosque.[PA TV (Fatah), July 26, 2011]
Chairman of the Palestinian National Council calls Temple alleged temple Chairman of the [Palestinian] National Council, Salim Al-Za'anoun, yesterday demanded a halt to the works to Judaize the city of Jerusalem, ...in the vicinity of the [Al-Aqsa] Mosque, turning them into ritual baths for the alleged temple, and turning the surroundings of the Mosque and the Old City of Jerusalem into biblical parks.

Jews visiting the Temple Mount are invasion, and all Israelis are settlers
Israeli MP Michael Ben-Ari invaded the Al-Aqsa Mosque on Tuesday heading a group of settlers, who were on a tour of the Al-Aqsa Mosque complex, listening to Ben-Ari's explanations about the alleged Temple... Chairman of the Supreme Council for Shari'a Law, Sheikh Yusuf Ida'is, said that the invasion of Al-Aqsa had been carried out under the protection of extensive occupation (i.e., Israeli) police forces. He warned of a most dangerous plot of the Israeli establishment, including its various branches, to seize control of [the Mosque], in order to destroy it and establish the alleged Temple in its place.[Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, June 9, 2011]
Official PA daily: Israel's Judaization plans... serve the myth and legend of the alleged Temple-It should be noted that the decisions to destroy and remove the Al-Bustan neighborhood were meant to realize the Judaization plans, according to which Talmudic parks would be established in its stead, serving the myth and legend of the alleged temple.[Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, May 12, 2011]
PA TV: The alleged Temple is myth and legend
"In occupied Jerusalem, the so-called Israel Supreme Court of Justice is expected to rule on the fate of 88 homes in the Al-Bustan neighborhood. Member of the Silwan and Al-Bustan Neighborhood Defense Committee, Fakhri Abu Diab... emphasized that occupation forces [Israel] are trying to remove the neighborhood altogether and to expel its residents, numbering more than 2,500, with the aim of building Talmudic parks which serve the myth and legend of the alleged Temple.[PA TV, May 11, 2011]
Official PA daily: The legend and fable of the alleged Temple.The Committee for Protection of Silwan Land and Assets warned of accelerated work in the area... [Member of the committee Fakhri] Abu Diab drew attention to the fact that the occupation authorities (i.e., Israel) are acting to falsify facts and history, by 'planting' alleged graves in the area, claiming that they are Jewish ones, and thereby conclusively seizing the area... He stated that the results of the [construction of] very prominent works being carried out by the occupation's instruments, are changes in the area's landmarks, with the aim of falsifying its history and its heritage, and [bringing about] its complete Judaization, as a service to the legend and fable of the alleged Temple. As to the parks... they will belong to the Temple, which the occupation authorities and groups of extremist Jews are hurrying to build in place of the Al-Aqsa Mosque.[Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, May 7, 2011]
Former Minister of Religious Affairs: The alleged Temple never existed on the site of Al-Aqsa Mosque-Quds.net Center for Research and Communications' recently published the book, The Guide to the Al-Aqsa Mosque, by speaker at the Al-Aqsa Mosque and former Minister of Religious Affairs, Sheikh Yusuf Salameh. The book... deals with the Al-Aqsa Mosque, its importance, and the religious importance of the city of Jerusalem, in order to refute what the Israelis disseminate, claiming that the Al-Aqsa Mosque was built on the ruins of their temple. Sheikh Salameh said that the book was published at this sensitive time, with the holy city in general and the Al-Aqsa Mosque in particular being subjected to brutal occupation attack, aimed at forging reality, culture and history... The book refutes the Israeli claims that the Al-Aqsa Mosque is situated upon the ruins of the alleged Temple, and states that the Al-Buraq Wall (i.e., the Western Wall) is an authentic part of the Al-Aqsa Mosque, and is not the Wailing Wall, as the occupiers falsely refer to it.[Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, May 2, 2011]

PA TV News: Israel steals Palestinian identity and cultural heritage
PA TV News on a Debka folkdance festival held in Safa, in the Ramallah district:
PA TV reporter:[The groups] are directing a message to the entire world, that the Palestinian nation still retains its identity and its cultural heritage, while Israel attempts to steal this heritage.(PA TV (Fatah), July 15, 2011]PA distortion: Jews changed original Arabic name Al-Buraq Wall to the Wailing Wall-Official PA daily's columnist on religious affairs, Is'haq Feleifel: The great and exalted Allah commanded the angel Gabriel to place Muhammad upon the riding beast [named] Al-Buraq, which was a cross between horse and donkey. The night journey was both physical and spiritual... Once he [Muhammad] reached the Al-Aqsa Mosque, (PMW note: the Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem was not yet built in the time of Muhammad. The night journey mentioned in the Quran is dated to 621 CE. The mosque was built on the Temple Mount by the son of Ummayad Caliph Abd Al-Malik 84 years later in 705 CE.) the angel Gabriel removed Muhammad from upon Al-Buraq's back, and then he tied the beast to the Al-Buraq rock, which was called the Al-Buraq Wall. The Jews changed its name to the Wailing Wall, because the Jews are always trying to change Arabic names into Hebrew names, especially when it comes to prayer sites or names of towns and villages. For example, they call Al-Quds Jerusalem; Al-Khalil [they call] Hebron; Atara - Atarot, Nablus - Shechem, Tel Al-Rabi'a - Tel Aviv(PMW note: 'Rabi'a' is the Arabic translation of the Hebrew word aviv, meaning spring); Askelan - Ashkelon. There is not enough room to list all the names which have been replaced with false names. Even the Torah' falsified, changed and forged; this is the way of the Jews - they always try to change the real names to other, false names, in order to erase the [historical] facts.[Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, July 1, 2011]
It should be noted that all six Hebrew names of cites appear in the Bible long before the Arabic names existed.Palestinian distortion: If I forget thee, oh Jerusalem was Crusader expression usurped by Zionists-Palestinian researcher Dr. Hayel Sanduqa on PA TV claims that the Hebrew Bible's psalm was actually first said by a Crusader:[The Israelis] have acted to change Jerusalem's character. Even the expression (Psalm 137:5) If I forget thee, oh Jerusalem, may my right hand forget its skill. May my tongue cling to the roof of my mouth, if I do not remember thee.

Jewish presence in land of Israel 2,000 years ago represents... nothing more than invention and falsification-The Zionists must acknowledge publicly, in front of the world, that the Jews have no connection to the Palestinian Arab land, upon whose ruins arose the colonialist settler Zionist plan that settles and expels, represented by the Israeli apartheid state. That which occurred two thousand years ago (i.e., the Jewish/Israeli presence in the land), assuming that it is true, represents in the book of history nothing more than invention and falsification and a coarse and crude form of colonialism.[Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, May 27, 2011]

EU and US criticise Israel ahead of UN showdown
Today AUG 17,11 @ 09:27 By Andrew Rettman
The EU, Russia, the US and the UN have spoken out against Israel's decision to create more houses for Jews on Palestinian land ahead of a UN vote on Palestine's future.The so-called Quartet said in its statement on Tuesday (16 August) it is greatly concerned by Israel's recent announcements to advance planning for new housing units in Ariel and East Jerusalem.It added Jerusalem in particular is one of the core issues that must be resolved through negotiations and noted the housing decisions come at a critical juncture in the peace process.The statement follows Israel's approval of 277 new homes in the West Bank settlement of Ariel and 1,600 housing units in occupied East Jerusalem.Ariel is part of a pattern of construction cutting the West Bank into four cantons and making the creation of a future Palestinian state more difficult.The Quartet statement marks an escalation in international pressure on Israel. EU foreign relations chief Catherine Ashton three days ago voiced deep regret about the Jerusalem move but was ignored.
Ashton has led recent Quartet attempts to restart peace talks in the hope of discouraging Palestinian authorities from trying to upgrade their UN status at an upcoming meeting of the UN General Assembly.The assembly vote, in September, is set to expose a split among EU member states with pro-Israeli countries such as the Czech republic, Germany and the Netherlands on one side and pro-Palestinian countries such as France, Spain and the UK on the other.It also risks inflaming tensions in the region - Palestinian diplomats have warned of potential mass demonstrations in the occupied territories after the UN vote.Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas in Bosnia on Tuesday said he will go ahead with the UN bid, saying: The application will be submitted to [UN] Secretary General Ban Ki-moon ... There is no date. Any time during the UN session we can submit the application.He indicated Palestine might seek to upgrade its UN status from non-member entity to that of non-member state rather than to a full member. The non-member state bid would not require approval by the UN Security Council, removing the threat of a US veto.Palestinian diplomats have denounced the timing of the Israeli housing moves as confrontational.For his part, Israel's deputy foreign minister Danny Ayalon, in Hungary on Tuesday urged the EU to come out on Israel's side.You, the Europeans, the great supporters of the Palestinian Authority, must show leadership and lead the Palestinians to the negotiation table, instead of being dragged behind maneuvers aimed at bypassing the negotiations,he said.A public European position that opposes the unilateral move may allow the Palestinians to climb down from the tree.

PMW Bulletins Jewish presence at Western Wall will be erased from history by Itamar Marcus and Nan Jacques Zilberdik Aug. 17, 2011http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qkt_L7QHxiY&feature=player_embedded
Official Palestinian Authority TV broadcast a documentary which stated that the PA plans to build an Arab residential area in place of the Western Wall Plaza in Jerusalem, when they [Israelis] disappear from the picture, like a forgotten chapter in the pages of our city's history.The Western Wall, a remnant of the Temple Mount, is Judaism's holiest and most important prayer site.The PA TV documentary further rejected the Jewish connection to Jerusalem, referring to Jewish history as their false history, while the Jews' praying at the Western Wall was called sin and filth.
The following is the transcript of the excerpt of the PA TV documentary:
"They [Israelis] know for certain that our [Palestinian] roots are deeper than their false history. We, from the balcony of our home, look out over [Islamic] holiness and on sin and filth (Jews' praying at Western Wall) in an area that used to have [Arab] people and homes. We are drawing our new maps. When they [Israelis] disappear from the picture, like a forgotten chapter in the pages of our city's history, we will build it anew (residential area).

Eurozone bank buys record €22bn in bonds to contain euro crisis 16.08.11 @ 09:18 By Honor Mahony
The European Central Bank last week spent a record €22bn buying euro-zone government bonds in a bid to prevent the eurozone debt crisis spreading, a move that is likely to fuel debate on the creation of eurobonds.Nicolas Sarkozy and Angela Merkel are meeting in Paris today (consilium.eu)The buying spree represented the most the central bank has spent since it first began bond-buying in May last year in response to the Greek debt crisis.It also shows the scale of the challenge faced by the bank in keeping down the borrowing costs of Italy and Spain, the eurozone’s third and fourth largest economies.The bond buyback programme - supposed to be a temporary measure while politicians attempt to solve the eurozone’s problems – is controversial among ECB policy-makers.It is most strongly opposed by Jens Weidmann and Juergen Stark, German members of the bank’s governing council, who feel the bank is moving into political territory.However, the bank has felt itself compelled to move as various agreements by EU politicians over recent months have failed to draw a line under the crisis.A July deal to allow the eurozone rescue fund to buy bonds – which the ECB keenly wants to come into force – has first to be ratified by member states.The extent of last week’s purchase, revealed by the bank yesterday, came on the eve of a meeting between German Chancellor Angela Merkel and French President Nicolas Sarkozy in Paris today (16 August).Last week Sarkozy said the meeting would result in extremely ambitious euro zone governance proposals.
Eurobonds
The most talked-about issue – though informally – is the mutualisation of eurozone debt through the creation of eurobonds.Germany has officially said this is a no-go area and will not be discussed during today’s meeting.The German government has said on numerous occasions that it does not believe Eurobonds make sense and that's why they will not play any role at tomorrow's meeting, spokesman Steffen Seibert said on Monday.However, behind the scenes the issue is being increasingly discussed.An article on Sunday in German daily Die Welt indicated that Berlin was coming around to the idea of eurobonds and cited an anonymous government source as saying that maintaining the eurozone with all its members is an absolute priority for Germany.The idea also has some support from industry.The head of the German export Group BGA said Eurobonds are needed to avoid a global depression.The alternative is the markets attack Italy, then France, we lose our AAA rating and then it's our turn. This is a downward spiral that would lead to a worldwide depression, Anton Boerner told Reuters news agency.What have we achieved then? Boerner said.We'll end up paying three times over. This way we pay just once.Leading economists share the same view.Unless some framework like European bonds are promoted, it's going to be very difficult for the troubled eurozone countries to be able to meet their financial requirements, Nobel Prize-winning economist Joseph Stiglitz told the BBC’s Newsnight programme on Monday.Eurobonds would lower the borrowing costs of struggling eurozone countries but raise the costs of Germany and other countries currently considered a safe bet by markets – something that many politicians in northern better-off eurozone countries balk at.It would also likely imply further significant EU fiscal integration – currently a topic of heated debate in Germany – the eurozone’s paymaster.

1 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
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:
5 Persia,(IRAN,IRAQ) Ethiopia, and Libya with them; all of them with shield and helmet:
6 Gomer,(GERMANY) and all his bands; the house of Togarmah (TURKEY)of the north quarters, and all his bands:(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.

Russian Stealth Fighter Plane to Star in Moscow Air Show-Russia has signaled its intentions of competing militarily on a high level by displaying a stealth fighter plane at this week's air show.by Aryeh ben Hayim Published: 16/08/11, 5:52 PM
When the United States was bogged down in Vietnam the Soviet Union used the interval to catch up strategically with the United States. This week's Moscow Airshow may prove to be a limited repetition of this pattern. Russia will display a new stealth fighter jet -- the Sukhoi T-50. The plane will replace the increasingly obsolete Sukhoi 27 and Sukhoi 29 planes.Starting with 2016 the Russian Air Force hopes to receive 20 planes each year. While the planes will cost less than the comparable American stealth plane, the Americans are developing a cheaper version. The question will be how many of the new planes with a price tag of hundred $140 million will Russia prove able to afford.Russia has one definite customer for the plane – India. India contributed 35% of the funding for the 6 billion-dollar development costs. To bring down the price Russia will need additional customers. The Americans are assisted by the fact that they will probably find customers in NATO as well as countries such as Israel that has already placed an order for the American planes.
Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin will be on hand to see the flight of the new plane as it symbolizes Russia's return to the cutting-edge of military technology. Putin will very much like to drive home the point that during his years as president and prime minister, Russia made strides back to a position of military competitiveness. A few months back China also unveiled a prototype of a stealth fighter plane.
Iran Dangles Bushehr Start-Up, But No Date Announced-Iran's Bushehr nuclear power plant will be activated soon authorities said Wednesday – but after years of delays, no date was given.by Chana Ya'ar Published: 17/08/11, 2:59 PM
Iran's Bushehr nuclear power plant will be activated soon authorities said Wednesday – but after years of delays, no date was given.The country's foreign minister, Ali Akbar Salehi told reporters prior to a meeting with with Russian counterpart, Sergei Lavrov, The launch of the Bushehr atomic power plant will take place soon.Salehi and Lavrov were expected to discuss not only a time line for cranking up the power plant, but also the international concerns over Iran's nuclear development activities – points that may be contributing to the delays.Iran has blamed the Russians for the most recent delays, however.The Russians keep making bad promises, said lawmaker Asgar Jalalian in an article published in the Aftab Yazd daily. One of the reasons for continued payment to the Russians is that our contract with them does not have a financial ceiling and lacks clear timing on contract termination.The Bushehr plant was originally begun by the German Siemens firm in the 1970s prior to the Islamic Revolution.We have the impression that there is an understanding of the need to strengthen trust and seek a way to resolve the questions of Iran's nuclear program, Lavrov told Salehi, according to the Reuters news agency.Russia, which has been involved in building the plant for some 20 years, recently called on Iran to take concrete steps to ease those concerns. In return, Russia agreed to work towards winning a gradual easing of the sanctions imposed on the Islamic Republic by the United Nations Security Council.Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad welcomed the proposal Tuesday after a meeting in Tehran with Russia's Security Council secretary. However, he made no commitment to end Iran's uranium enrichment program, the key element fueling the international community's suspicions that Tehran is intent on building nuclear weapons of mass destruction, rather than a simple domestic energy program.Ahmadinejad has also repeatedly threatened in his public speeches to annihilate the State of Israel off the face of the map.

Big Sis’ Latest Terrorists: More White Americans
Paul Joseph Watson Infowars.com August 17, 2011
Despite causing controversy last month with a video that portrayed white middle class Americans as the most likely terrorists, the Department of Homeland Security has released yet another PSA that depicts an attempt to bomb a subway station not by Al-Qaeda Muslims, but well-dressed white people.A new Public Service Announcement entitled The Drop Off – If You See Something, Say Something’ was unveiled by none other than Big Sis herself, Janet Napolitano, on the Homeland Security website today.
The PSA, which will be played on television and radio stations, shows a well dressed attractive white woman exiting a taxi before walking into a subway station. The taxi driver – a white man – then makes a phone call and sets a timer on a device in the trunk of the car. The woman then leaves her bag in the station.If you see something, say something – report suspicious activity to local authorities, states the voiceover as the clip ends with other commuters reporting the incident to a black security guard and a black police officer.In her accompanying statement to the video, DHS chief Napolitano also hints that gun stores could be a prime breeding ground for terrorists, making reference to a recent case where, the owner of a gun store near Ft. Hood called authorities when an individual in his store was behaving in a suspicious manner.As we highlighted last month, a longer PSA recently produced by the DHS overwhelmingly went to significant lengths to portray white Americans as the most likely terrorists, despite the fact that the 126 people who were indicted on terrorist-related charges in the United States over the last two years were all Muslim.Bizarrely, the majority of the people shown reporting suspicious activity to authorities were portrayed as non-whites.The story, first featured on Infowars.com, went viral and prompted a furious response from many, appearing on the Drudge Report, Fox News, Breitbart.tv, the Daily Mail as well as featuring highly amongst the most read articles on the entire Internet during that 24 hour period. The Fox Nation version of the story received well over 2000 comments.Despite the DHS’ claims to the contrary, many saw the ad as being deliberately racially motivated. Some concluded that this was merely a nod to political correctness while others viewed it as part of a pattern of demonizing white middle class Americans – many of whom are furious with the federal government for all manner of different reasons - as the DHS increasingly targets its anti-terror apparatus against politically motivated citizens.
Of the numerous different scenarios shown in the video, no less than 12 of them depict white people as terrorists whereas only three are non-whites. In addition, of the people depicted as patriotic Americans for reporting the terrorists, only one of them is white, while seven are non-white.As Pajamas Media highlighted,The DHS video goes out of its way to avoid showing any terrorist who fits the profile of the actual terrorists who have been waging war on us for more than a decade: Young men primarily from the Middle East. Instead, it tends to show them as middle aged white men. And it doesn’t really show them doing much of what actual terrorists do. It’s as if DHS is trying to make a completely useless anti-terrorism video.Watch the video that prompted last month’s controversy below.

Obama’s Lone Wolf Will Be a Sovereign Citizen
Kurt Nimmo Infowars.com August 17, 2011
Following Obama’s exploitation of the Norway massacre and prediction of a lone wolf attack on Tuesday, CBS News suggested the attack will not come from al-Qaeda and Islamic terrorists, but from a member of the Sovereign Citizen movement in the United States.After citing the FBI and the Fort Hood shooting, CBS said the attack may come from within:The domestic Lone Wolf threat is far from limited to Islamic-linked individuals, too. As reported by 60 Minutes, the Sovereign Citizens movement – a loosely knit group that doesn’t pay taxes, carry driver’s licenses or hold Social Security cards – has shown a violent and sometimes murderous dislike of law enforcement. Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeigh had only two known co-conspirators.
The FBI and DHS have an acronym for people and groups who dislike and distrust the government – HVEs, or homegrown violent extremists.In 2010, the FBI posted a web page on Domestic Terrorism listing the sovereign citizen movement. The movement, however, was portrayed as criminal scam artists, not violent terrorists. Sovereign citizens are often confused with extremists from the militia movement. But while sovereign citizens sometimes use or buy illegal weapons, guns are secondary to their anti-government, anti-tax beliefs,writes the FBI.In April, the Star-Tribune reported that the FBI is keeping tabs on the sovereign citizen movement in Wyoming. The newspaper said that most sovereigns maintain they only want a peaceful transition to a restored republic, but the bureau has kept an eye on the movement because some sovereigns have taken the logical step from belief in the illegitimacy of the current system to acting violently against it,according to FBI Special Agent Kathy Wright.The FBI announced last year that the sovereign citizen movement ranks among the nation’s top domestic terrorist threats, along with animal rights/eco-terrorism, anarchists, and lone offenders with extremist agendas, according to the Star-Tribune.
The FBI encourages Americans to inform on their fellow citizens if they express anti-government political views the agency insists invariably turns violent.First, ‘be crime smart’: don’t fall for the bogus claims and scams of sovereign citizens. And second, if you have information on any suspicious activities or crimes, please contact us, the FBI told the Homeland Security Newswire last year.Following the attacks in Norway, the DHS told AOL-Huffington Post that white supremacists and members of a sovereign citizen movement pose a domestic terror threat.A Norway incident could definitely happen here; the same things that played into the Norway suspect’s mindset are here in this country, former DHS domestic terror analyst Daryl Johnson, who founded a consulting firm that tracks extremist activity, told the liberal news website. If anything, extremists are much more capable of committing violent acts here due to their access to weapons and ammunition, which they don’t have in Europe.The corporate media wasted little time hyping the imagined threat from far right groups in America following the Norwegian rampage.The greatest threat of large-scale attacks come from individuals and small groups of extremists who subscribe to radical Islamic or far right-wing ideologies, CNN reported on July 25.
In order to make the point that domestic groups opposed to the federal government are a looming threat, CNN turned to the Southern Poverty Law Center, an organization that has made a cottage industry out of scare mongering terrorism threats from groups and individuals they place on the right side of the political spectrum.Such groups are among the fastest-growing extremist organizations in the country, the Southern Poverty Law Center reported in February. Right wing anti-government groups grew by 60% in 2010 over the previous year, the center reported, attributing much of the growth to militia groups, CNN reported, parroting skewed statistics released by the SPLC.
Author Details Pentagon’s Fake al-Qaeda
Kurt Nimmo Infowars.com August 17, 2011
During an NPR interview of New York Times veteran reporter Thom Shanker, who co-authored Counterstrike: The Untold Story of America’s Secret Campaign Against Al Qaeda, we learn that the Pentagon routinely pretends to be al-Qaeda:What the American military intelligence can do is forge the watermarks or certification of official al-Qaida postings, says Shanker.American cyber technology is so advanced that they can have a near perfect re-creation of an al-Qaida message — and what they’re doing from time to time is going on jihadi websites and posting conflicting and contradictory orders, statements that raise doubt about who the jihadis should follow and who is really in charge … and the goal is to really disrupt the entire network by sowing dissent and confusion. We’ve been told they’ve had some great success at that.In other words, we have no way of discerning between the real al-Qaeda and the facsimile created by the Pentagon and the CIA.Claims that al-Qaeda videos are fake and the discrepancy of fat and Grecian formula Osama bin Ladens are usually ignored by the corporate media or dismissed as conspiracy theories. Shanker’s report from the Pentagon lends credence to skeptics who insist al-Qaeda is not what the government says it is.This denial persisted even after the CIA admitted faking al-Qaeda videos and having its employees dress up and act like the dead Osama bin Laden.Not that it matters. For instance, the New Osama, Anwar al-Awlaki, dined at the Pentagon – a fact reported by Fox News – but this did not jive with the official Pentagon generated narrative, so it was ignored.
This new information will either be ignored or the professional script-readers who pretend to be journalists will fail to connect the dots, as usual.The essence of Doublethink, after all, is the act of simultaneously accepting two mutually contradictory beliefs as correct. Normally, such information creates cognitive dissonance – the uncomfortable feeling caused by holding conflicting ideas simultaneously – but in the bizarro world that is the forever war of manufactured terror, this no longer applies.The Pentagon can now brazenly admit it creates terrorism and we are expected to assimilate this without question or further intellectual processing. If we point out the obvious, we are either ignored, dismissed as insane – a favorite tactic of neocons such as Newt Gingrich – or accused of aiding and abetting the enemies of freedom.

Hareidi IAF Soldiers Celebrate Tu B'Av-A special evening in honor of Tu B'Av was held for the soldiers and officers of the IAF's Shachar Kachol program for hareidim.
by Elad Benari Published: 16/08/11, 1:30 AM
A special evening in celebration of Tu B’Av, the Jewish holiday of love, was held on Sunday for soldiers and officers in the IDF’s Shachar Kachol (Blue Dawn) program and their wives.Shachar Kachol is a program which integrates hareidi soldiers into the Israeli Air Force and has been operating for the past 4 years. So far, about 600 soldiers have participated in the program and have enlisted in various positions in the Air Force, with some even serving as officers.Since most of the men in the program are married, it was decided to hold a special dinner in honor of Tu B’Av and thank the soldiers’ wives for their support of their husbands and explain to them the role their husbands play in the army.The event was attended by the Head of Human Resources at the IAF, Brigadier General Ilan Boger and the IAF rabbi, Lt.-Colonel Rabbi Moshe Ravad.Also in attendance was Rabbi Simcha Cohen, who gave a lecture on relationships, family and education of children in Haredi society.
New stimulus seen if recession hits Canada: Finance minister Reuters By Frank McGurty | Reuters – Sat, Aug 13, 2011
TORONTO (Reuters) - Canada would consider fresh stimulus for its economy if it slipped into recession, its finance minister said on Saturday, a move that could complicate plans to return to a balanced budget by 2014/15.It will take economic contraction, Finance Minister Jim Flaherty said in an CBC Radio interview when asked what it would take for the government to suspend its budget-cutting policies and start stimulus spending again. It would have to be the oxymoronic word negative growth.At the beginning of the current fiscal year, Canada's Conservative government began winding down its stimulus spending program, launched two years earlier during the global financial crisis. It has pledged to stop running deficits by 2014/15.
Despite the debt crisis in Europe and threat of a U.S. slowdown, Flaherty expressed guarded optimism about the health of the Canadian economy and said it was important to take a long-term perspective in shaping policy.We had a very strong first quarter in Canada this year and we'll see more modest growth ... in the rest of the year. But as long as there is growth overall -- the moderate growth we expect and some small growth also in the United States - then in North America we will be relatively well off.Canada's government has forecast the economy will grow by 2.9 percent in 2011.Flaherty conceded that he was concerned about Europe as well, but that the situation there affected Canada much less than the United States.
FISCAL RESPONSIBILITY
Flaherty said he saw an economic slowdown in the United States -- Canada's largest trading partner -- as the most significant risk for the country, but said he was confident Canada could weather any renewed global economic turbulence.We are seeing a relatively small growth in the U.S., but we are seeing growth. As long as that continues we ought not have too much difficulty, he told the Canadian Broadcasting Corp.Still, Flaherty again emphasized the need for the United States and some European countries to follow Canada's example on fiscal responsibility.We have a plan to get us back to surplus by 2014/15. We have long-term planning in place and we have the resolve to stay the course, Flaherty said.This is a fundamental need both in the United States and certain European countries. We need governments to demonstrate that they can get their financial issues straightened out in terms of deficit and debt.Flaherty dismissed the notion that Canada was too dependent on trade with the United States but said there were advantages to expanding commerce with India, China and other Asian economies.We need to do more trade with other countries, and we need to do more trade with the United States. I'm very happy that the most powerful economy in the world, by far, is the United States economy, and it's right next door to us.(Reporting by Frank McGurty; Editing by Paul Simao)

Selloff raises stakes in Sarkozy-Merkel euro zone talks Reuters By Leigh Thomas and Yann Le Guernigou – AUG 15,11
PARIS (Reuters) – France and Germany's leaders face a stark choice in talks on Tuesday over whether to steer the embattled euro zone toward closer monetary union or risk watching the bloc unravel.French President Nicolas Sarkozy and German Chancellor Angela Merkel meet in Paris from 1400 GMT (10 a.m. EDT) to discuss what further measures they can take to contain Europe's debt crisis, which is now spreading to the continent's core. A joint news conference is due at 1600 GMT.Italy has been forced to ramp up its austerity measures and financial market jitters hit France last week with French banks' shares subject to panic selling on rumors that the country could be next to lose its prized AAA debt rating.Many experts say the only way to ensure affordable financing for the bloc's most financially distressed countries would be for the euro area to issue joint eurobonds -- although officials in Paris and Berlin said Tuesday's talks would not address that possibility.
Although the German government has long opposed the idea, support is beginning to emerge, with the country's export association saying on Monday that all other means of fighting the crisis had run out.Italian Economy Minister Giulio Tremonti said on Saturday that eurobonds would be the best solution to Europe's debt crisis , and some economists say that the euro zone will inevitably come around to accepting the idea.
EURO ZONE COLLAPSE
French economist Jacques Delpla, who co-authored a paper proposing how eurobonds could work, said the euro zone faced collapse unless leaders went beyond an agreement reached at a July 21 emergency summit on the debt crisis.If we just stick to the July 21 agreement then, before the end of the year, there will be no euro zone, unless the ECB buys everything that's problematic.Eurobonds aside, Sarkozy and Merkel will focus on proposals to improve the euro zone's economic governance, which they told fellow leaders in the bloc at last month's summit that they would issue by the end of August.In particular, they could discuss holding regular euro zone summits, as France has long sought, or ways of improving peer monitoring of fiscal policies.At the July summit, euro zone leaders agreed to a second bailout package for Greece and to give their European Financial Stability Facility rescue fund broader powers, but the moves provided only a brief respite in the debt crisis.
Economist Frederic Bonnevay at French think-tank Institut Montaigne said more radical measures were needed even if they did not include eurobonds for now.The size and powers of the EFSF need to be expanded dramatically -- that's a secret to no-one,he said, suggesting that its firepower should be raised to as much as one trillion euros from 440 billion euros ($635 billion) currently.Sarkozy, who broke off his summer holiday last week to deal with the market meltdown in French stocks, is to meet with Prime Minister Francois Fillon over lunch to fine tune France's position before he meets Merkel.(Additional reporting by Nicholas Vinocur and Patrick Vignal; Editing by Jon Boyle)
World Bank chief: Governments should deal with global debt Reuters By Rob Taylor | Reuters – AUG 15,11
CANBERRA (Reuters) - The World Bank called for national governments to seek a long-term debt curb to solve the current sovereign debt crises in Europe and the United States, but said it was too early for special action by the Group of 20 rich nations.World Bank President Robert Zoellick also said it was time to push a free trade agenda, warning against rising protectionism as nations seek to solve their debt crisis.This is really at a stage where you still have sovereign governments having to make decisions in Europe, Zoellick told reporters in the Australian capital Canberra on Tuesday.It really is going to be the responsibility of each of those sovereign entities to make the calls on how they are going to face not only the short-term challenges, often assisted by their central banks, but also go to the medium and long term, he said.Euro zone policymakers have been battling to contain a debt crisis that threatens to enter a dangerous new phase by engulfing larger nations on the region's periphery, with the European Central Bank stepping in last week to buy Italian and Spanish bonds in a bid to calm nervous markets.But the idea of so-called Eurobonds or joint euro zone bonds has been fiercely opposed by Berlin, which is fearful such a step would push up German borrowing costs and reduce incentives for weaker euro zone members like Greece to reform their economies.
Zoellick said the loss of market confidence in economic leadership in key countries like the United States and Europe coupled with a fragile economic recovery had pushed markets into a new danger zone.What markets are looking to is a long-term action plan that goes beyond discretionary spending, he said of the United States.So far, we've been able to kind of hold off the dogs of protectionism, but as you get slowdown, these risks can build.European banks were rocked last week by concern about a squeeze for short-term funding, with tougher and more costly financing and a retreat by U.S. money market funds prompting lenders to turn to the ECB for more cash. France's banks were hit particularly hard.Zoellick said the appreciation of China's yuan currency would be a positive in helping restore global economic stability and tackling China's inflation.That could help deal with some of the inflation rate and is also a contributor, I think, to some of the stability in the international system,Zoellick said(Reporting by Rob Taylor; Editing by Ed Davies and Balazs Koranyi)
ECB in record $32 billion bond buying spree AP By GREG KELLER - Associated Press,JUERGEN BAETZ - Associated Press | AP – AUG 15,11
PARIS (AP) — The European Central Bank revealed Monday that it splashed out euro22 billion ($32 billion) last week — more than it has ever done before — propping up the bond markets of Italy and Spain.News of the big bond purchases came a day before the leaders of Germany and France meet to discuss the debt crisis that has engulfed Europe for over a year and a half. Speculation that German Chancellor Angela Merkel and French President Nicolas Sarkozy would be considering proposals for the eurozone to issue jointly guaranteed government debt appear to have been dashed, however.
Tuesday's meeting in Paris comes after a week of turmoil in financial markets, which was partly blamed on Europe's sprawling government debt crisis, which threatened to sweep up economic heavyweights such as Italy and Spain. Fears that the eurozone's third and fourth largest economies may find it too expensive to service their debts triggered the ECB's intervention in the bond markets.France itself was caught in the crossfire last week, with investors worrying about the financial health of the country's banks and whether France would be the next country after the U.S. to lose its triple-A credit rating.
France and Germany, which together account for almost half of the eurozone's economic output, are taking the lead in pushing for reforms aimed at pulling the bloc out of its debt crisis.That is and remains a path of consolidation, of reform, strict adherence to a reworked stability pact that also includes sanctions, Merkel's spokesman Steffen Seibert said.The discussions will center on measures for better agreement of financial policies, paving the way for enhanced economic governance, he added.Officials for both Merkel and Sarkozy said Monday that eurobonds would not be on the agenda.Eurobonds would be a major step toward the bloc's economic integration, and are billed by supporters as an overnight solution to the debt crisis. Italy, Greece, Belgium and Luxembourg are among the nations calling for eurobonds.However, Germany has been adamantly against their creation. Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble reiterated his opposition when he told German news magazine Der Spiegel that eurobonds were out of the question as long as the currency zone's 17 nations still run their own budget policy. Different interest rates for eurozone nations, he added, were needed to provide incentives and the possibility of sanctions to enforce solid financial policy.Schaeuble acknowledged that the EU must, and will, beef up its response to the crisis by assisting heavily indebted nations, but said there won't be a collectivization of debt or unlimited assistance.
Merkel has long ruled out eurobonds, and Economy Minister Philipp Roesler joined the chorus Monday, describing jointly guaranteed debt as the wrong way out of the crisis.
Eurobonds would mean that everybody shares the same interest burden which would be a punishment for (financially) sound nations,he was quoted as saying by German news agency dapd. We cannot want this for Germany and for all other good states.With Europe still scrambling to come up with measures to appease the markets, the European Central Bank has been taking a more central in dealing with the crisis, which has already seen Greece, Ireland and Portugal receive massive bailouts.Analysts think a large chunk, if not all, of the euro22 billion the central bank spent last week was used to prop up the bond prices of Italy and Spain, who had seen their borrowing costs ratchet up sharply in the preceding weeks.The ECB's purchases were the biggest weekly amount the bank has made under the emergency measure, exceeding the euro16.5 billion it laid out when it started buying Greek government debt in May 2010.While stocks took a pounding last week, the program boosted Italian and Spanish bonds, pushing their prices up and interest yields — which move in the opposite direction — down. High bond yields were what drove Ireland, Portugal and Greece to seek bailouts from the European Union and the International Monetary Fund.The bank is temporarily shouldering the burden of fighting the crisis until national parliaments approve new powers for the European Union's bailout fund so it can buy government bonds or help recapitalize banks if necessary.Baetz reported from Berlin; AP Business Writer David McHugh also contributed from Frankfurt.
Analysis: Google deal ups RIM's allure, but for how long? Reuters By Alastair Sharp | Reuters – AUG 15,11
TORONTO (Reuters) - Google's $12.5 billion bid for Motorola Mobility brought a 9 percent gain for the beaten-down stock of tech rival Research In Motion on Monday as investors calculated what a similarly bulging premium would do for the BlackBerry maker's asking price.But it also means one more well-heeled suitor has shunned RIM as a potential target, leaving Canada's best-known company to go it alone as other big tech players pair up.The challenge is increased for RIM here. They're left without a dance partner, said Susquehanna Financial analyst Jeff Fidacaro.Google offered a generous 63 percent premium for Motorola Mobility as it sought to build up its patent portfolio.A similar premium to RIM's price on Friday would value the company at something over $20 billion.RIM is still dominant in corporate communication, but it is struggling as employees seek to pull corporate memos onto their own devices, often an Apple iPhone or iPad or perhaps a device that uses Google's Android technology.There are persistent rumors of Microsoft as a possible suitor. But neither company has shown any taste for the tie-up and Microsoft recently turned toward Nokia as its preferred smartphone partner with a deal for Nokia to abandon its own software and adopt Windows Phone.
Nokia's U.S. listed ADRs rose more than 17 percent as investors singled it out as the likely focus of any enhanced Microsoft attention now that Google has targeted Motorola.I think most people would guess it's Nokia right now just because they have that existing deal...but I think RIM would be a better acquisition for Microsoft to make if it was going to make one, said Ken Wong, a professor of business strategy at Queen's University in Kingston, Ontario, pointing to RIM's strengths in security and compression.RIM's shares have sunk almost 60 percent this year as the Canadian company missed its own limp earnings forecasts, delayed a line of more-advanced phones and failed to excite with its PlayBook tablet.But the stock was up 10.4 percent at $27.11 on Monday, its biggest one-day rise since April 2009.It's putting pressure on Microsoft and Apple and other tech companies to look at a lot of assets in that sector, said Youssef Zohny, a portfolio manager at Van Arbor Asset Management in Vancouver, which hold RIM shares.Sanford Bernstein analyst Pierre Ferragu suggested Google's move to defend Android from legal attack by buying Motorola would deflate the rising price tag for tech patents. But other analysts recalibrated their valuation of RIM's own IP holdings upward.National Bank Financial analyst Kris Thompson said RIM's patents alone could be worth $10 billion as he upped his rating to sector perform from underperform.Mike Abramsky from RBC Capital Markets said the patents, centered around mobile data synchronization, could be worth up to $6 billion. But he cautioned that Google is paying top dollar to neutralize a direct threat and it is unclear if other buyers would be equally motivated.Google's bid for Motorola could also alienate other Android customers and perhaps give RIM a chance to snatch back waning market share.(Additional reporting by Claire Sibonney; editing by Janet Guttsman and Peter Galloway)

Record rains trap workers in flooded NYC elevator AP By VERENA DOBNIK and GEOFF MULVIHILL, Associated Press – Mon Aug 15, 5:08 pm ET
NEW YORK – Two New York City construction workers barely escaped drowning in an elevator as storms dropped record rains over the weekend on parts of the nation's eastern half, washing out roads in New Jersey and forcing a small hospital in Ohio to move patients.One of the workers, cabinetmaker Ed Tyler, of Milltown, N.J., told The Associated Press on Monday that he and colleague Wendell Amaker, of Roselle, N.J., were happy to be alive after their ordeal.The storm dropped nearly 8 inches of rain on New York City's Kennedy Airport on Sunday and nearly 5 in Philadelphia, setting city records for any day. At Seabrook Farms, N.J., the daily total was nearly 11 inches.In most spots, the effects were bad but not disastrous — sometimes narrowly so, like on New York City's Staten Island, where Tyler and Amaker were moving materials for a senior center being built.As rain drummed the borough around 9:30 a.m. Sunday, Tyler and Amaker were using an elevator to get supplies to a basement that, unknown to them, was filling up with floodwaters.After they got in, the doors would not open, though they pressed buttons in vain.We hit the water; we heard swishing, Tyler said. Then the water started pouring in.I was freaked out — the water was almost chest-high,he said. They feared electrocution and jumped into a rubberized utility cart they had with them.
Of their two cell phones, one was wet and one had no signal. Finally, they decided to break open a ceiling emergency hatch.Almost an hour after they became trapped, one cell phone suddenly caught a signal and they called 911.In a few minutes, fire rescuers arrived, shut off power to the elevator and hoisted the men out through the ceiling hatch with a ladder.The firefighters told me to go home and take a shower, because the sewage pipes backed up and probably got mixed with the rainwater that came in, Tyler said.No deaths or serious injuries were reported from the record-breaking cloudbursts, but the region wasn't out of the woods by Monday evening. Flood watches remained in effect as far north as Rhode Island even as the rains moved out to sea.The slow-moving system was the same one that toppled a stage with its winds Saturday at the Indiana State Fair, killing five people. Its lazy pace was what caused the exceptional rainfall amounts, said Dave Scheibe, a meteorologist for the National Weather Service in Mount Holly, N.J.In southern New Jersey, a dam on Seeley Lake broke Sunday, turning the normally mild Cohansey River into a raging threat racing through downtown Bridgeton.These waters were going at least 20, 30 miles per hour,said Martin Ruiz, a maintenance worker for a realty company who spent Monday checking on basements of rental properties in Bridgeton. There were big logs going through there.An apartment complex for senior citizens near the river was evacuated Sunday when it appeared the torrent might spill over to city streets, but the waters stayed a couple feet below the downtown flood walls.
Officials in Cumberland County reported four water rescues Sunday. But it could have been worse, said Joseph Sever, director of Cumberland County's Office of Emergency Management — the rain fell on the tidal rivers and streams in the region at a fortunate time.The tide was right,he said.Amtrak lines were closed through Baltimore for a time Monday because water over the tracks.Cleveland's 3.51 inches of rain broke a record for Aug. 14 that had been on the books since 1905, according to the National Weather Service. The deluge postponed an Indians baseball game and canceled a concert by pop star Selena Gomez.In Port Clinton, Ohio, three of the six patients at Magruder Hospital were moved Sunday when water inundated a room holding the main power distribution panels. The other three were discharged.The weekend rains collapsed a roof in Allentown, Pa., on Saturday night, The Morning Call newspaper reported. Thirteen people had to evacuate.The downpours also washed out Sunday's final day of performances at the Musikfest in Bethlehem, Pa. The losses there included African drums for sale and more than 1,000 kabobs to be sold as a fundraiser for Hogar Crea house, which treats young addicts.Basically, we lost everything — the food, the equipment, everything,Ivan Delvalle, director of treatment at Hogar Crea, told The Morning Call. The Musikfest fundraiser usually carries us through the winter. I'm not sure what we'll do.Mulvihill reported from Bridgeton, N.J.

More rain, flooding for already drenched East Coast
Reuters – Mon Aug 15, 3:20 pm ET
NEW YORK (Reuters) – An unstoppable conveyor belt of rain drenched the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic on Monday, adding to record-breaking precipitation that triggered flood watches and a local state of emergency at the start of the workweek.Severe weather in the Northern Plains was also predicted, with flooding downpours, wind gusts greater than 60 miles per hour and large hail possible from the northern Rockies through the Dakotas and Northern Nebraska, said meteorologist Brian Edwards on Accuweather.com.Texas, gripped by triple-digit temperatures and in the midst of the worst drought ever, welcomed rain of up to six inches. But rain didn't come early enough in Parker County, known as the cutting horse capital of the world, where authorities said nine horses died of dehydration after being left out in temperatures over 100 degrees Fahrenheit without water, hay or feed.With the temperatures as high as they have been, it's imperative to keep fresh water and adequate food for any animal,said Parker County Sheriff Larry Fowler, who said investigators were weighing possible criminal charges.On the East Coast, rain that pummeled the area on Sunday continued into Monday. Flood watches were issued for New York, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Vermont, New Jersey and Pennsylvania, according to the National Weather Service.A state of emergency was in effect Monday in Pittsgrove Township in Salem County, New Jersey, which had received 11 inches of rain since the storm began on Sunday, according to Mayor Linda DuBois.
Fire engines were used to evacuate two families from submerged homes, a dozen washed-out roads were closed and a dry lake was suddenly brimming, she said.In Bridgeton, New Jersey, a dam was breached at Seeley Lake, and water rushed into the Cohansey River, flooding nearby streets, said Todd Bowen, fire battalion chief.That was after rainfall records were shattered across the area on Sunday, including at John F. Kennedy International Airport, which had the wettest day on record with 7.80 inches, smashing the 1984 record of 6.27 inches, said meteorologist Meghan Evans on Accuweather.com.Nearly twice the normal monthly rainfall was delivered in one day, Evans said of the New York City area.Rain records were set throughout the mid-Atlantic on Sunday, including Newark with 6.4 inches (old record 1.1 inches set in 1999) and Philadelphia with 4.8 inches (1.7 inches in 1977).On Monday, puddles resembling ponds swamped roadways across Staten Island and other New York boroughs, submerging cars, their roofs like turtles' backs barely peeking above the surface.No major delays were reported at New York, New Jersey or Philadelphia airports.
Flooding was caused by the slow moving storm as well as parched soil from an otherwise dry summer, making it difficult for rainwater to easily penetrate the hard ground, weather experts said.There had also been flood watches in effect in the Washington, D.C., area on Sunday, and thunderstorms and heavy rains lashed parts of the region on Sunday night.Further south, the rains ushered in cooler temperatures to South Carolina, which has stayed in 90s for months but basked in the 80s on Monday with water temperatures in Charleston at about 86 degrees.(Reporting by Barbara Goldberg; Additional reporting by Dave Warner; Editing by Jerry Norton)

Global food prices near 3-year highs: World Bank
Reuters By Lucia Mutikani – AUG 15,11
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – Global food prices held near three-year highs in July and stocks were low, piling on pressure on the world's poor, the World Bank said on Monday.The World Bank Food Price index increased 33 percent in July from a year-ago and stayed close to 2008 peak levels, with large rises in the prices for maize, or corn, and sugar.Persistently high food prices and low food stocks indicate that we're still in the danger zone, with the most vulnerable people the least able to cope,said World Bank President Robert Zoellick.High food and energy prices have stoked inflation pressures around the global, but the problem has been more acute in developing nations.Although food prices are moderating in most advanced countries, uncertainties about the global economy and the political situation in the Middle East and North Africa mean oil prices likely will remain volatile, keeping inflation on the radar.While overall food supply has improved since April -- mainly because of good wheat harvests in the United States and Europe and better maize yields in Argentina and Brazil -- global stocks remained alarmingly low, the World Bank said.
Global output of grains in 2011/12 is projected to be 3 percent higher than the estimated output for 2010/11.But the stocks-to-use ratio for maize currently stands at about 13 percent, the smallest since the early 1970s. Wheat and rice stocks also remain well below their late 1990s and early 2000 levels.Coupled with the fact that the realization of the forecast yields is itself contingent on benign weather conditions in the major exporting countries, the low stock environment has created a situation in which even small shortfalls in yields can have amplified effects on prices,the World Bank said.The price of maize was up 84 percent in July from a year ago and sugar increased 62 percent.The World Bank said the move into production for biofuels was also driving up the price of maize, noting that in the first four months of 2011, U.S. maize demand for ethanol production rose 8 percent from the same period last year.Rice prices increased 11 percent in the last quarter after declining since February. Sugar prices increased 29 percent between May and July amid worries about Brazil's lower-than-expected sugarcane harvest.Given that sugar and vegetable oils together account for roughly 50 percent of the World Bank's food price index, volatility in these prices is likely to have unexpected effects on food prices in the months ahead,the World Bank said.(Reporting by Lucia Mutikani; Editing by Leslie Adler)
Netanyahu faces Israeli parliament over protests
Reuters By Allyn Fisher-Ilan | Reuters – AUG 15,11
JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, under fire for his government's handling of a month-long surge of protests against high living costs, faces a special debate in parliament on Tuesday.Parliament has been recalled from its summer recess to consider the crisis, for once focused on social and economic issues rather than Israel's conflict with the Palestinians or its Arab neighbors.A motion introduced by the centrist Kadima party, one of four on the assembly's charged agenda, targets government imperviousness and foot-dragging by Netanyahu's right-wing coalition in addressing demands to cut taxes and housing prices.Netanyahu has named a team of experts to look into possible reforms but he and financial officials have cautioned against any expansion of the state budget, wary of signs the economy is weakening due partly to a spreading global financial crisis.We are experiencing great turbulence, Netanyahu told a parliamentary finance panel on Monday, adding: We want to deal with both these problems -- to relieve the cost of living and reduce gaps.He also promised substantial changes.Efforts by Netanyahu's government to address protesters' grievances seemed further complicated on Monday when an alternative panel of university professors stepped forward pledging to help protesters meet their goals. [nL6E7JD08N]The Israeli protests, a rare sustained outburst of anger over domestic policies, have drawn hundreds of thousands to the streets since mid-July, when dozens first camped out on a Tel Aviv boulevard to complain of soaring rents, supermarket prices and taxes.Soon a so-called middle-class revolt gathered momentum and spread to other cities, spawning several mass rallies.
More than 70,000 protesters thronged the centers of a dozen towns and cities across Israel on Saturday. Upwards of 250,000 demonstrated in the business capital of Tel Aviv last week.Analysts say the unrest seems to pose no immediate political threat to Netanyahu's two-and-a-half-year-old government.But some officials say the controversy could inflame tensions in his coalition and result in national elections being held ahead of a scheduled 2013.The parliamentary debate on petitions filed by four opposition parties will be an opportunity to air differences, but Netanyahu appears likely to win any votes held.(Editing by Alistair Lyon)

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.

UN: Palestinians flee refugee camp in Syria
AP By ZEINA KARAM - Associated Press | AP – AUG 15,11
BEIRUT (AP) — More than 5,000 Palestinian refugees have fled a camp in the besieged Syrian city of Latakia after President Bashar Assad's forces shelled the city during a broad military assault to root out dissent, the U.N. said Monday.UNRWA, the U.N. agency that aids Palestinian refugees, said the Palestinians fled after Latakia came under fire from gunboats cruising off the coast and ground troops attacking the city over the weekend. It was not immediately clear where the refugees were seeking shelter.We are calling for access to the camp to find out what is going on, said UNRWA spokesman Chris Gunness. There were 10,000 refugees in the camp and we need to find out what is happening to them.Assad has dramatically escalated the crackdown on a 5-month-old uprising since the start of the holy month of Ramadan, when many Muslims fast from dawn to dusk. Despite blistering international outrage, the regime is trying to establish firm control in rebellious areas by unleashing tanks, snipers and — in a new tactic — gunships.On Monday, Turkey's Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu called on Syria to immediately end the bloodshed and threatened unspecified steps if it fails to do so.If the operations do not end, there would be nothing more to discuss about steps that would be taken, Davutoglu said, without elaborating.Turkey, a former close ally of Syria, has been increasingly frustrated with Damascus' brutal crackdown. Davutoglu traveled to Syria last week and urged Assad to end the bloodshed. But Turkey, Syria's neighbor and an important trade partner, has not joined the U.S. and Europe in imposing sanctions.In Washington, White House spokesman Jay Carney said Assad must cease the systematic violence, mass arrests and the outright murder of his own people,adding that the Syrian president has lost legitimacy to lead.Carney said the U.S. would be looking to apply further sanctions against Assad's government, but it was unclear whether that was the extent of the administration's or else part of the equation.
The military assault in Latakia was in its third day Monday after gunboats off the coast combined with ground troops Sunday for the first time in the uprising. Nearly 30 people, and possibly more, have been killed in the city since Saturday, activists say.Soldiers also stormed the area of Houla in the central city of Homs, which has seen massive protests in recent months. A sniper killed an elderly man, according to the London-based Observatory for human rights, which has a network of activists on the ground in Syria.The group said more than 700 people have been arrested in and around Homs since the beginning of August.The regime has banned foreign media and restricted local coverage, making it difficult to verify accounts on the ground.The attacks in Latakia were the latest wave of a brutal offensive that shows Assad has no intention of scaling back despite international outrage and new U.S. and European sanctions.As the gunships blasted waterfront districts Sunday, ground troops and security forces backed by tanks and armored vehicles stormed several neighborhoods, sending terrified women and children fleeing.The Observatory said troops opened fire Monday as a group of fleeing residents approached a checkpoint in the Ein Tamra district of Latakia. One person was shot dead and five wounded.A Latakia resident confirmed the account, saying troops fired as scores of people, many of them women and children, were fleeing. He spoke on condition of anonymity for fear of reprisals.
The Local Coordination Committees, an activist group that helps organize protests in Syria, also confirmed troops fired at fleeing families. It said random gunfire erupted Monday in addition to a campaign of raids and house-to-house arrests.Troops later entered small neighborhoods in the al-Ramel Palestinian refugee camp, warning people to leave or risk their houses being destroyed, the LCC said. A witness said security forces were rounding up young men in the area and detaining them in a sports stadium nearby.Amateur videos posted online by activists showed smoke rising from al-Ramel, the crackle of heavy gunfire and people shouting, God is Great! A Syrian military official on Monday denied reports that gunboats had fired on Latakia, calling them absolutely baseless. The official, whose comments were carried by state-run news agency SANA, said the ships were patrolling the coast on a routine mission to prevent weapons smuggling into the country.On Sunday, SANA said troops were pursuing gunmen using machine guns, hand grenades and bombs who have been terrorizing residents in the al-Ramel district.The regime blames the unrest on a foreign conspiracy and often issues reports on its state-run media that contradict widespread witness accounts and video footage provided by witnesses.The security forces appear to be intent on crushing dissent in Latakia, which has seen large anti-Assad protests since the Syrian uprising began in mid-March. On Friday, as many as 10,000 marched there, calling for the president's ouster.The brutality has fueled international outrage with Syria, a hardline Arab state closely allied with Iran, and led to new sanctions against the regime by the U.S., Canada and Europe.On Monday, Assad sacked the governor for the key northwestern province of Aleppo, Ali Mansour, and replaced him with Mowaffak Khallouf, SANA said.No reason was given for the sacking. But while the opposition has yet to bring out the middle and upper middle classes in Damascus and Aleppo, the two economic powerhouses, protests have been building in Aleppo. Four people were killed there Friday as security forces attacked protesters.Zeina Karam can be reached at http://twitter.com/zkaram

Israel OKs 277 new homes in West Bank settlement
AP By DANIEL ESTRIN - Associated Press | AP – AUG 15,11
JERUSALEM (AP) — Israel has approved the building of 277 apartments in the Jewish settlement deepest inside the West Bank, defying international criticism of continued construction on land the Palestinians claim for a state.The planned construction in Ariel — the core of the settlement bloc farthest inside the West Bank — is the third project on disputed lands to be advanced in the past week.In Washington, the State Department called the new Israeli building deeply troubling.
These kinds of actions are counterproductive to the resumption of direct negotiations between the Israelis and Palestinians, said spokeswoman Victoria Nuland.
Palestinian Authority spokesman Ghassan Khatib called the recent building announcements an escalation and called on the international community to pressure Israel harder.The policies of every single country in the world (are) that settlement expansion is illegal and an obstacle to peace, Khatib said. Israel is not taking this seriously. I think these countries have to introduce elements of accountability to their relations with Israel.The office of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu refused to comment.Palestinians oppose Israeli construction in the West Bank and east Jerusalem — lands they want for the core of a future independent state — and have suspended talks with Israel as a result. Instead, they plan to go to the United Nations next month to seek its unilateral endorsement of their state.The latest construction approval could further complicate American attempts to persuade the Palestinians to give up their U.N. bid and enter negotiations with Israel instead.Israel has recently moved ahead on plans to build more than 2,500 new apartments in disputed east Jerusalem, and Israeli officials say 2,700 more will be approved soon.The U.S. has been critical of those plans. All three projects could take years to build.Associated Press writer Matt Lee in Washington contributed to this report.

A special evening in celebration of Tu B’Av, the Jewish holiday of love, was held on Sunday for soldiers and officers in the IDF’s Shachar Kachol (Blue Dawn) program and their wives.Shachar Kachol is a program which integrates hareidi soldiers into the Israeli Air Force and has been operating for the past 4 years. So far, about 600 soldiers have participated in the program and have enlisted in various positions in the Air Force, with some even serving as officers.Since most of the men in the program are married, it was decided to hold a special dinner in honor of Tu B’Av and thank the soldiers’ wives for their support of their husbands and explain to them the role their husbands play in the army.The event was attended by the Head of Human Resources at the IAF, Brigadier General Ilan Boger and the IAF rabbi, Lt.-Colonel Rabbi Moshe Ravad.Also in attendance was Rabbi Simcha Cohen, who gave a lecture on relationships, family and education of children in Haredi society.
New stimulus seen if recession hits Canada: Finance minister Reuters By Frank McGurty | Reuters – Sat, Aug 13, 2011
TORONTO (Reuters) - Canada would consider fresh stimulus for its economy if it slipped into recession, its finance minister said on Saturday, a move that could complicate plans to return to a balanced budget by 2014/15.It will take economic contraction, Finance Minister Jim Flaherty said in an CBC Radio interview when asked what it would take for the government to suspend its budget-cutting policies and start stimulus spending again. It would have to be the oxymoronic word negative growth.At the beginning of the current fiscal year, Canada's Conservative government began winding down its stimulus spending program, launched two years earlier during the global financial crisis. It has pledged to stop running deficits by 2014/15.
Despite the debt crisis in Europe and threat of a U.S. slowdown, Flaherty expressed guarded optimism about the health of the Canadian economy and said it was important to take a long-term perspective in shaping policy.We had a very strong first quarter in Canada this year and we'll see more modest growth ... in the rest of the year. But as long as there is growth overall -- the moderate growth we expect and some small growth also in the United States - then in North America we will be relatively well off.Canada's government has forecast the economy will grow by 2.9 percent in 2011.Flaherty conceded that he was concerned about Europe as well, but that the situation there affected Canada much less than the United States.
FISCAL RESPONSIBILITY
Flaherty said he saw an economic slowdown in the United States -- Canada's largest trading partner -- as the most significant risk for the country, but said he was confident Canada could weather any renewed global economic turbulence.We are seeing a relatively small growth in the U.S., but we are seeing growth. As long as that continues we ought not have too much difficulty, he told the Canadian Broadcasting Corp.Still, Flaherty again emphasized the need for the United States and some European countries to follow Canada's example on fiscal responsibility.We have a plan to get us back to surplus by 2014/15. We have long-term planning in place and we have the resolve to stay the course, Flaherty said.This is a fundamental need both in the United States and certain European countries. We need governments to demonstrate that they can get their financial issues straightened out in terms of deficit and debt.Flaherty dismissed the notion that Canada was too dependent on trade with the United States but said there were advantages to expanding commerce with India, China and other Asian economies.We need to do more trade with other countries, and we need to do more trade with the United States. I'm very happy that the most powerful economy in the world, by far, is the United States economy, and it's right next door to us.(Reporting by Frank McGurty; Editing by Paul Simao)

Selloff raises stakes in Sarkozy-Merkel euro zone talks Reuters By Leigh Thomas and Yann Le Guernigou – AUG 15,11
PARIS (Reuters) – France and Germany's leaders face a stark choice in talks on Tuesday over whether to steer the embattled euro zone toward closer monetary union or risk watching the bloc unravel.French President Nicolas Sarkozy and German Chancellor Angela Merkel meet in Paris from 1400 GMT (10 a.m. EDT) to discuss what further measures they can take to contain Europe's debt crisis, which is now spreading to the continent's core. A joint news conference is due at 1600 GMT.Italy has been forced to ramp up its austerity measures and financial market jitters hit France last week with French banks' shares subject to panic selling on rumors that the country could be next to lose its prized AAA debt rating.Many experts say the only way to ensure affordable financing for the bloc's most financially distressed countries would be for the euro area to issue joint eurobonds -- although officials in Paris and Berlin said Tuesday's talks would not address that possibility.
Although the German government has long opposed the idea, support is beginning to emerge, with the country's export association saying on Monday that all other means of fighting the crisis had run out.Italian Economy Minister Giulio Tremonti said on Saturday that eurobonds would be the best solution to Europe's debt crisis , and some economists say that the euro zone will inevitably come around to accepting the idea.
EURO ZONE COLLAPSE
French economist Jacques Delpla, who co-authored a paper proposing how eurobonds could work, said the euro zone faced collapse unless leaders went beyond an agreement reached at a July 21 emergency summit on the debt crisis.If we just stick to the July 21 agreement then, before the end of the year, there will be no euro zone, unless the ECB buys everything that's problematic.Eurobonds aside, Sarkozy and Merkel will focus on proposals to improve the euro zone's economic governance, which they told fellow leaders in the bloc at last month's summit that they would issue by the end of August.In particular, they could discuss holding regular euro zone summits, as France has long sought, or ways of improving peer monitoring of fiscal policies.At the July summit, euro zone leaders agreed to a second bailout package for Greece and to give their European Financial Stability Facility rescue fund broader powers, but the moves provided only a brief respite in the debt crisis.
Economist Frederic Bonnevay at French think-tank Institut Montaigne said more radical measures were needed even if they did not include eurobonds for now.The size and powers of the EFSF need to be expanded dramatically -- that's a secret to no-one,he said, suggesting that its firepower should be raised to as much as one trillion euros from 440 billion euros ($635 billion) currently.Sarkozy, who broke off his summer holiday last week to deal with the market meltdown in French stocks, is to meet with Prime Minister Francois Fillon over lunch to fine tune France's position before he meets Merkel.(Additional reporting by Nicholas Vinocur and Patrick Vignal; Editing by Jon Boyle)
World Bank chief: Governments should deal with global debt Reuters By Rob Taylor | Reuters – AUG 15,11
CANBERRA (Reuters) - The World Bank called for national governments to seek a long-term debt curb to solve the current sovereign debt crises in Europe and the United States, but said it was too early for special action by the Group of 20 rich nations.World Bank President Robert Zoellick also said it was time to push a free trade agenda, warning against rising protectionism as nations seek to solve their debt crisis.This is really at a stage where you still have sovereign governments having to make decisions in Europe, Zoellick told reporters in the Australian capital Canberra on Tuesday.It really is going to be the responsibility of each of those sovereign entities to make the calls on how they are going to face not only the short-term challenges, often assisted by their central banks, but also go to the medium and long term, he said.Euro zone policymakers have been battling to contain a debt crisis that threatens to enter a dangerous new phase by engulfing larger nations on the region's periphery, with the European Central Bank stepping in last week to buy Italian and Spanish bonds in a bid to calm nervous markets.But the idea of so-called Eurobonds or joint euro zone bonds has been fiercely opposed by Berlin, which is fearful such a step would push up German borrowing costs and reduce incentives for weaker euro zone members like Greece to reform their economies.
Zoellick said the loss of market confidence in economic leadership in key countries like the United States and Europe coupled with a fragile economic recovery had pushed markets into a new danger zone.What markets are looking to is a long-term action plan that goes beyond discretionary spending, he said of the United States.So far, we've been able to kind of hold off the dogs of protectionism, but as you get slowdown, these risks can build.European banks were rocked last week by concern about a squeeze for short-term funding, with tougher and more costly financing and a retreat by U.S. money market funds prompting lenders to turn to the ECB for more cash. France's banks were hit particularly hard.Zoellick said the appreciation of China's yuan currency would be a positive in helping restore global economic stability and tackling China's inflation.That could help deal with some of the inflation rate and is also a contributor, I think, to some of the stability in the international system,Zoellick said(Reporting by Rob Taylor; Editing by Ed Davies and Balazs Koranyi)
ECB in record $32 billion bond buying spree AP By GREG KELLER - Associated Press,JUERGEN BAETZ - Associated Press | AP – AUG 15,11
PARIS (AP) — The European Central Bank revealed Monday that it splashed out euro22 billion ($32 billion) last week — more than it has ever done before — propping up the bond markets of Italy and Spain.News of the big bond purchases came a day before the leaders of Germany and France meet to discuss the debt crisis that has engulfed Europe for over a year and a half. Speculation that German Chancellor Angela Merkel and French President Nicolas Sarkozy would be considering proposals for the eurozone to issue jointly guaranteed government debt appear to have been dashed, however.
Tuesday's meeting in Paris comes after a week of turmoil in financial markets, which was partly blamed on Europe's sprawling government debt crisis, which threatened to sweep up economic heavyweights such as Italy and Spain. Fears that the eurozone's third and fourth largest economies may find it too expensive to service their debts triggered the ECB's intervention in the bond markets.France itself was caught in the crossfire last week, with investors worrying about the financial health of the country's banks and whether France would be the next country after the U.S. to lose its triple-A credit rating.
France and Germany, which together account for almost half of the eurozone's economic output, are taking the lead in pushing for reforms aimed at pulling the bloc out of its debt crisis.That is and remains a path of consolidation, of reform, strict adherence to a reworked stability pact that also includes sanctions, Merkel's spokesman Steffen Seibert said.The discussions will center on measures for better agreement of financial policies, paving the way for enhanced economic governance, he added.Officials for both Merkel and Sarkozy said Monday that eurobonds would not be on the agenda.Eurobonds would be a major step toward the bloc's economic integration, and are billed by supporters as an overnight solution to the debt crisis. Italy, Greece, Belgium and Luxembourg are among the nations calling for eurobonds.However, Germany has been adamantly against their creation. Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble reiterated his opposition when he told German news magazine Der Spiegel that eurobonds were out of the question as long as the currency zone's 17 nations still run their own budget policy. Different interest rates for eurozone nations, he added, were needed to provide incentives and the possibility of sanctions to enforce solid financial policy.Schaeuble acknowledged that the EU must, and will, beef up its response to the crisis by assisting heavily indebted nations, but said there won't be a collectivization of debt or unlimited assistance.
Merkel has long ruled out eurobonds, and Economy Minister Philipp Roesler joined the chorus Monday, describing jointly guaranteed debt as the wrong way out of the crisis.
Eurobonds would mean that everybody shares the same interest burden which would be a punishment for (financially) sound nations,he was quoted as saying by German news agency dapd. We cannot want this for Germany and for all other good states.With Europe still scrambling to come up with measures to appease the markets, the European Central Bank has been taking a more central in dealing with the crisis, which has already seen Greece, Ireland and Portugal receive massive bailouts.Analysts think a large chunk, if not all, of the euro22 billion the central bank spent last week was used to prop up the bond prices of Italy and Spain, who had seen their borrowing costs ratchet up sharply in the preceding weeks.The ECB's purchases were the biggest weekly amount the bank has made under the emergency measure, exceeding the euro16.5 billion it laid out when it started buying Greek government debt in May 2010.While stocks took a pounding last week, the program boosted Italian and Spanish bonds, pushing their prices up and interest yields — which move in the opposite direction — down. High bond yields were what drove Ireland, Portugal and Greece to seek bailouts from the European Union and the International Monetary Fund.The bank is temporarily shouldering the burden of fighting the crisis until national parliaments approve new powers for the European Union's bailout fund so it can buy government bonds or help recapitalize banks if necessary.Baetz reported from Berlin; AP Business Writer David McHugh also contributed from Frankfurt.
Analysis: Google deal ups RIM's allure, but for how long? Reuters By Alastair Sharp | Reuters – AUG 15,11
TORONTO (Reuters) - Google's $12.5 billion bid for Motorola Mobility brought a 9 percent gain for the beaten-down stock of tech rival Research In Motion on Monday as investors calculated what a similarly bulging premium would do for the BlackBerry maker's asking price.But it also means one more well-heeled suitor has shunned RIM as a potential target, leaving Canada's best-known company to go it alone as other big tech players pair up.The challenge is increased for RIM here. They're left without a dance partner, said Susquehanna Financial analyst Jeff Fidacaro.Google offered a generous 63 percent premium for Motorola Mobility as it sought to build up its patent portfolio.A similar premium to RIM's price on Friday would value the company at something over $20 billion.RIM is still dominant in corporate communication, but it is struggling as employees seek to pull corporate memos onto their own devices, often an Apple iPhone or iPad or perhaps a device that uses Google's Android technology.There are persistent rumors of Microsoft as a possible suitor. But neither company has shown any taste for the tie-up and Microsoft recently turned toward Nokia as its preferred smartphone partner with a deal for Nokia to abandon its own software and adopt Windows Phone.
Nokia's U.S. listed ADRs rose more than 17 percent as investors singled it out as the likely focus of any enhanced Microsoft attention now that Google has targeted Motorola.I think most people would guess it's Nokia right now just because they have that existing deal...but I think RIM would be a better acquisition for Microsoft to make if it was going to make one, said Ken Wong, a professor of business strategy at Queen's University in Kingston, Ontario, pointing to RIM's strengths in security and compression.RIM's shares have sunk almost 60 percent this year as the Canadian company missed its own limp earnings forecasts, delayed a line of more-advanced phones and failed to excite with its PlayBook tablet.But the stock was up 10.4 percent at $27.11 on Monday, its biggest one-day rise since April 2009.It's putting pressure on Microsoft and Apple and other tech companies to look at a lot of assets in that sector, said Youssef Zohny, a portfolio manager at Van Arbor Asset Management in Vancouver, which hold RIM shares.Sanford Bernstein analyst Pierre Ferragu suggested Google's move to defend Android from legal attack by buying Motorola would deflate the rising price tag for tech patents. But other analysts recalibrated their valuation of RIM's own IP holdings upward.National Bank Financial analyst Kris Thompson said RIM's patents alone could be worth $10 billion as he upped his rating to sector perform from underperform.Mike Abramsky from RBC Capital Markets said the patents, centered around mobile data synchronization, could be worth up to $6 billion. But he cautioned that Google is paying top dollar to neutralize a direct threat and it is unclear if other buyers would be equally motivated.Google's bid for Motorola could also alienate other Android customers and perhaps give RIM a chance to snatch back waning market share.(Additional reporting by Claire Sibonney; editing by Janet Guttsman and Peter Galloway)

8 Of clean beasts, and of beasts that are not clean, and of fowls, and of every thing that creepeth upon the earth,
9 There went in two and two unto Noah into the ark, the male and the female, as God had commanded Noah.
10 And it came to pass after seven days, that the waters of the flood were upon the earth.
11 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.

Tropical depression forms far from land in Pacific
AP - Mon Aug 15, 4:56 pm ET
MIAMI – Forecasters say a tropical depression has formed far from land in the Pacific Ocean.The depression with maximum sustained winds at 35 mph (56 kph) was more than 1,600 miles (2,575 kilometers) from the coasts of Hawaii and California on Monday afternoon.The National Hurricane Center in Miami says the depression could become a tropical storm on Tuesday.
Record rains trap workers in flooded NYC elevator AP By VERENA DOBNIK and GEOFF MULVIHILL, Associated Press – Mon Aug 15, 5:08 pm ET
NEW YORK – Two New York City construction workers barely escaped drowning in an elevator as storms dropped record rains over the weekend on parts of the nation's eastern half, washing out roads in New Jersey and forcing a small hospital in Ohio to move patients.One of the workers, cabinetmaker Ed Tyler, of Milltown, N.J., told The Associated Press on Monday that he and colleague Wendell Amaker, of Roselle, N.J., were happy to be alive after their ordeal.The storm dropped nearly 8 inches of rain on New York City's Kennedy Airport on Sunday and nearly 5 in Philadelphia, setting city records for any day. At Seabrook Farms, N.J., the daily total was nearly 11 inches.In most spots, the effects were bad but not disastrous — sometimes narrowly so, like on New York City's Staten Island, where Tyler and Amaker were moving materials for a senior center being built.As rain drummed the borough around 9:30 a.m. Sunday, Tyler and Amaker were using an elevator to get supplies to a basement that, unknown to them, was filling up with floodwaters.After they got in, the doors would not open, though they pressed buttons in vain.We hit the water; we heard swishing, Tyler said. Then the water started pouring in.I was freaked out — the water was almost chest-high,he said. They feared electrocution and jumped into a rubberized utility cart they had with them.
Of their two cell phones, one was wet and one had no signal. Finally, they decided to break open a ceiling emergency hatch.Almost an hour after they became trapped, one cell phone suddenly caught a signal and they called 911.In a few minutes, fire rescuers arrived, shut off power to the elevator and hoisted the men out through the ceiling hatch with a ladder.The firefighters told me to go home and take a shower, because the sewage pipes backed up and probably got mixed with the rainwater that came in, Tyler said.No deaths or serious injuries were reported from the record-breaking cloudbursts, but the region wasn't out of the woods by Monday evening. Flood watches remained in effect as far north as Rhode Island even as the rains moved out to sea.The slow-moving system was the same one that toppled a stage with its winds Saturday at the Indiana State Fair, killing five people. Its lazy pace was what caused the exceptional rainfall amounts, said Dave Scheibe, a meteorologist for the National Weather Service in Mount Holly, N.J.In southern New Jersey, a dam on Seeley Lake broke Sunday, turning the normally mild Cohansey River into a raging threat racing through downtown Bridgeton.These waters were going at least 20, 30 miles per hour,said Martin Ruiz, a maintenance worker for a realty company who spent Monday checking on basements of rental properties in Bridgeton. There were big logs going through there.An apartment complex for senior citizens near the river was evacuated Sunday when it appeared the torrent might spill over to city streets, but the waters stayed a couple feet below the downtown flood walls.
Officials in Cumberland County reported four water rescues Sunday. But it could have been worse, said Joseph Sever, director of Cumberland County's Office of Emergency Management — the rain fell on the tidal rivers and streams in the region at a fortunate time.The tide was right,he said.Amtrak lines were closed through Baltimore for a time Monday because water over the tracks.Cleveland's 3.51 inches of rain broke a record for Aug. 14 that had been on the books since 1905, according to the National Weather Service. The deluge postponed an Indians baseball game and canceled a concert by pop star Selena Gomez.In Port Clinton, Ohio, three of the six patients at Magruder Hospital were moved Sunday when water inundated a room holding the main power distribution panels. The other three were discharged.The weekend rains collapsed a roof in Allentown, Pa., on Saturday night, The Morning Call newspaper reported. Thirteen people had to evacuate.The downpours also washed out Sunday's final day of performances at the Musikfest in Bethlehem, Pa. The losses there included African drums for sale and more than 1,000 kabobs to be sold as a fundraiser for Hogar Crea house, which treats young addicts.Basically, we lost everything — the food, the equipment, everything,Ivan Delvalle, director of treatment at Hogar Crea, told The Morning Call. The Musikfest fundraiser usually carries us through the winter. I'm not sure what we'll do.Mulvihill reported from Bridgeton, N.J.

More rain, flooding for already drenched East Coast
Reuters – Mon Aug 15, 3:20 pm ET
NEW YORK (Reuters) – An unstoppable conveyor belt of rain drenched the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic on Monday, adding to record-breaking precipitation that triggered flood watches and a local state of emergency at the start of the workweek.Severe weather in the Northern Plains was also predicted, with flooding downpours, wind gusts greater than 60 miles per hour and large hail possible from the northern Rockies through the Dakotas and Northern Nebraska, said meteorologist Brian Edwards on Accuweather.com.Texas, gripped by triple-digit temperatures and in the midst of the worst drought ever, welcomed rain of up to six inches. But rain didn't come early enough in Parker County, known as the cutting horse capital of the world, where authorities said nine horses died of dehydration after being left out in temperatures over 100 degrees Fahrenheit without water, hay or feed.With the temperatures as high as they have been, it's imperative to keep fresh water and adequate food for any animal,said Parker County Sheriff Larry Fowler, who said investigators were weighing possible criminal charges.On the East Coast, rain that pummeled the area on Sunday continued into Monday. Flood watches were issued for New York, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Vermont, New Jersey and Pennsylvania, according to the National Weather Service.A state of emergency was in effect Monday in Pittsgrove Township in Salem County, New Jersey, which had received 11 inches of rain since the storm began on Sunday, according to Mayor Linda DuBois.
Fire engines were used to evacuate two families from submerged homes, a dozen washed-out roads were closed and a dry lake was suddenly brimming, she said.In Bridgeton, New Jersey, a dam was breached at Seeley Lake, and water rushed into the Cohansey River, flooding nearby streets, said Todd Bowen, fire battalion chief.That was after rainfall records were shattered across the area on Sunday, including at John F. Kennedy International Airport, which had the wettest day on record with 7.80 inches, smashing the 1984 record of 6.27 inches, said meteorologist Meghan Evans on Accuweather.com.Nearly twice the normal monthly rainfall was delivered in one day, Evans said of the New York City area.Rain records were set throughout the mid-Atlantic on Sunday, including Newark with 6.4 inches (old record 1.1 inches set in 1999) and Philadelphia with 4.8 inches (1.7 inches in 1977).On Monday, puddles resembling ponds swamped roadways across Staten Island and other New York boroughs, submerging cars, their roofs like turtles' backs barely peeking above the surface.No major delays were reported at New York, New Jersey or Philadelphia airports.
Flooding was caused by the slow moving storm as well as parched soil from an otherwise dry summer, making it difficult for rainwater to easily penetrate the hard ground, weather experts said.There had also been flood watches in effect in the Washington, D.C., area on Sunday, and thunderstorms and heavy rains lashed parts of the region on Sunday night.Further south, the rains ushered in cooler temperatures to South Carolina, which has stayed in 90s for months but basked in the 80s on Monday with water temperatures in Charleston at about 86 degrees.(Reporting by Barbara Goldberg; Additional reporting by Dave Warner; Editing by Jerry Norton)

Global food prices near 3-year highs: World Bank
Reuters By Lucia Mutikani – AUG 15,11
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – Global food prices held near three-year highs in July and stocks were low, piling on pressure on the world's poor, the World Bank said on Monday.The World Bank Food Price index increased 33 percent in July from a year-ago and stayed close to 2008 peak levels, with large rises in the prices for maize, or corn, and sugar.Persistently high food prices and low food stocks indicate that we're still in the danger zone, with the most vulnerable people the least able to cope,said World Bank President Robert Zoellick.High food and energy prices have stoked inflation pressures around the global, but the problem has been more acute in developing nations.Although food prices are moderating in most advanced countries, uncertainties about the global economy and the political situation in the Middle East and North Africa mean oil prices likely will remain volatile, keeping inflation on the radar.While overall food supply has improved since April -- mainly because of good wheat harvests in the United States and Europe and better maize yields in Argentina and Brazil -- global stocks remained alarmingly low, the World Bank said.
Global output of grains in 2011/12 is projected to be 3 percent higher than the estimated output for 2010/11.But the stocks-to-use ratio for maize currently stands at about 13 percent, the smallest since the early 1970s. Wheat and rice stocks also remain well below their late 1990s and early 2000 levels.Coupled with the fact that the realization of the forecast yields is itself contingent on benign weather conditions in the major exporting countries, the low stock environment has created a situation in which even small shortfalls in yields can have amplified effects on prices,the World Bank said.The price of maize was up 84 percent in July from a year ago and sugar increased 62 percent.The World Bank said the move into production for biofuels was also driving up the price of maize, noting that in the first four months of 2011, U.S. maize demand for ethanol production rose 8 percent from the same period last year.Rice prices increased 11 percent in the last quarter after declining since February. Sugar prices increased 29 percent between May and July amid worries about Brazil's lower-than-expected sugarcane harvest.Given that sugar and vegetable oils together account for roughly 50 percent of the World Bank's food price index, volatility in these prices is likely to have unexpected effects on food prices in the months ahead,the World Bank said.(Reporting by Lucia Mutikani; Editing by Leslie Adler)
Netanyahu faces Israeli parliament over protests
Reuters By Allyn Fisher-Ilan | Reuters – AUG 15,11
JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, under fire for his government's handling of a month-long surge of protests against high living costs, faces a special debate in parliament on Tuesday.Parliament has been recalled from its summer recess to consider the crisis, for once focused on social and economic issues rather than Israel's conflict with the Palestinians or its Arab neighbors.A motion introduced by the centrist Kadima party, one of four on the assembly's charged agenda, targets government imperviousness and foot-dragging by Netanyahu's right-wing coalition in addressing demands to cut taxes and housing prices.Netanyahu has named a team of experts to look into possible reforms but he and financial officials have cautioned against any expansion of the state budget, wary of signs the economy is weakening due partly to a spreading global financial crisis.We are experiencing great turbulence, Netanyahu told a parliamentary finance panel on Monday, adding: We want to deal with both these problems -- to relieve the cost of living and reduce gaps.He also promised substantial changes.Efforts by Netanyahu's government to address protesters' grievances seemed further complicated on Monday when an alternative panel of university professors stepped forward pledging to help protesters meet their goals. [nL6E7JD08N]The Israeli protests, a rare sustained outburst of anger over domestic policies, have drawn hundreds of thousands to the streets since mid-July, when dozens first camped out on a Tel Aviv boulevard to complain of soaring rents, supermarket prices and taxes.Soon a so-called middle-class revolt gathered momentum and spread to other cities, spawning several mass rallies.
More than 70,000 protesters thronged the centers of a dozen towns and cities across Israel on Saturday. Upwards of 250,000 demonstrated in the business capital of Tel Aviv last week.Analysts say the unrest seems to pose no immediate political threat to Netanyahu's two-and-a-half-year-old government.But some officials say the controversy could inflame tensions in his coalition and result in national elections being held ahead of a scheduled 2013.The parliamentary debate on petitions filed by four opposition parties will be an opportunity to air differences, but Netanyahu appears likely to win any votes held.(Editing by Alistair Lyon)

UN: Palestinians flee refugee camp in Syria
AP By ZEINA KARAM - Associated Press | AP – AUG 15,11
BEIRUT (AP) — More than 5,000 Palestinian refugees have fled a camp in the besieged Syrian city of Latakia after President Bashar Assad's forces shelled the city during a broad military assault to root out dissent, the U.N. said Monday.UNRWA, the U.N. agency that aids Palestinian refugees, said the Palestinians fled after Latakia came under fire from gunboats cruising off the coast and ground troops attacking the city over the weekend. It was not immediately clear where the refugees were seeking shelter.We are calling for access to the camp to find out what is going on, said UNRWA spokesman Chris Gunness. There were 10,000 refugees in the camp and we need to find out what is happening to them.Assad has dramatically escalated the crackdown on a 5-month-old uprising since the start of the holy month of Ramadan, when many Muslims fast from dawn to dusk. Despite blistering international outrage, the regime is trying to establish firm control in rebellious areas by unleashing tanks, snipers and — in a new tactic — gunships.On Monday, Turkey's Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu called on Syria to immediately end the bloodshed and threatened unspecified steps if it fails to do so.If the operations do not end, there would be nothing more to discuss about steps that would be taken, Davutoglu said, without elaborating.Turkey, a former close ally of Syria, has been increasingly frustrated with Damascus' brutal crackdown. Davutoglu traveled to Syria last week and urged Assad to end the bloodshed. But Turkey, Syria's neighbor and an important trade partner, has not joined the U.S. and Europe in imposing sanctions.In Washington, White House spokesman Jay Carney said Assad must cease the systematic violence, mass arrests and the outright murder of his own people,adding that the Syrian president has lost legitimacy to lead.Carney said the U.S. would be looking to apply further sanctions against Assad's government, but it was unclear whether that was the extent of the administration's or else part of the equation.
The military assault in Latakia was in its third day Monday after gunboats off the coast combined with ground troops Sunday for the first time in the uprising. Nearly 30 people, and possibly more, have been killed in the city since Saturday, activists say.Soldiers also stormed the area of Houla in the central city of Homs, which has seen massive protests in recent months. A sniper killed an elderly man, according to the London-based Observatory for human rights, which has a network of activists on the ground in Syria.The group said more than 700 people have been arrested in and around Homs since the beginning of August.The regime has banned foreign media and restricted local coverage, making it difficult to verify accounts on the ground.The attacks in Latakia were the latest wave of a brutal offensive that shows Assad has no intention of scaling back despite international outrage and new U.S. and European sanctions.As the gunships blasted waterfront districts Sunday, ground troops and security forces backed by tanks and armored vehicles stormed several neighborhoods, sending terrified women and children fleeing.The Observatory said troops opened fire Monday as a group of fleeing residents approached a checkpoint in the Ein Tamra district of Latakia. One person was shot dead and five wounded.A Latakia resident confirmed the account, saying troops fired as scores of people, many of them women and children, were fleeing. He spoke on condition of anonymity for fear of reprisals.
The Local Coordination Committees, an activist group that helps organize protests in Syria, also confirmed troops fired at fleeing families. It said random gunfire erupted Monday in addition to a campaign of raids and house-to-house arrests.Troops later entered small neighborhoods in the al-Ramel Palestinian refugee camp, warning people to leave or risk their houses being destroyed, the LCC said. A witness said security forces were rounding up young men in the area and detaining them in a sports stadium nearby.Amateur videos posted online by activists showed smoke rising from al-Ramel, the crackle of heavy gunfire and people shouting, God is Great! A Syrian military official on Monday denied reports that gunboats had fired on Latakia, calling them absolutely baseless. The official, whose comments were carried by state-run news agency SANA, said the ships were patrolling the coast on a routine mission to prevent weapons smuggling into the country.On Sunday, SANA said troops were pursuing gunmen using machine guns, hand grenades and bombs who have been terrorizing residents in the al-Ramel district.The regime blames the unrest on a foreign conspiracy and often issues reports on its state-run media that contradict widespread witness accounts and video footage provided by witnesses.The security forces appear to be intent on crushing dissent in Latakia, which has seen large anti-Assad protests since the Syrian uprising began in mid-March. On Friday, as many as 10,000 marched there, calling for the president's ouster.The brutality has fueled international outrage with Syria, a hardline Arab state closely allied with Iran, and led to new sanctions against the regime by the U.S., Canada and Europe.On Monday, Assad sacked the governor for the key northwestern province of Aleppo, Ali Mansour, and replaced him with Mowaffak Khallouf, SANA said.No reason was given for the sacking. But while the opposition has yet to bring out the middle and upper middle classes in Damascus and Aleppo, the two economic powerhouses, protests have been building in Aleppo. Four people were killed there Friday as security forces attacked protesters.Zeina Karam can be reached at http://twitter.com/zkaram

ISAIAH 28:14-19 (THIS IS THE 7 YR TREATY COVENANT OF DANIEL 9:27)
14 Wherefore hear the word of the LORD, ye scornful men, that rule this people which is in Jerusalem.
15 Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves:
16 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste.
17 Judgment also will I lay to the line, and righteousness to the plummet: and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding place.
18 And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it.
19 From the time that it goeth forth it shall take you: for morning by morning shall it pass over, by day and by night: and it shall be a vexation only to understand the report.
Israel OKs 277 new homes in West Bank settlement
AP By DANIEL ESTRIN - Associated Press | AP – AUG 15,11
JERUSALEM (AP) — Israel has approved the building of 277 apartments in the Jewish settlement deepest inside the West Bank, defying international criticism of continued construction on land the Palestinians claim for a state.The planned construction in Ariel — the core of the settlement bloc farthest inside the West Bank — is the third project on disputed lands to be advanced in the past week.In Washington, the State Department called the new Israeli building deeply troubling.
These kinds of actions are counterproductive to the resumption of direct negotiations between the Israelis and Palestinians, said spokeswoman Victoria Nuland.
Palestinian Authority spokesman Ghassan Khatib called the recent building announcements an escalation and called on the international community to pressure Israel harder.The policies of every single country in the world (are) that settlement expansion is illegal and an obstacle to peace, Khatib said. Israel is not taking this seriously. I think these countries have to introduce elements of accountability to their relations with Israel.The office of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu refused to comment.Palestinians oppose Israeli construction in the West Bank and east Jerusalem — lands they want for the core of a future independent state — and have suspended talks with Israel as a result. Instead, they plan to go to the United Nations next month to seek its unilateral endorsement of their state.The latest construction approval could further complicate American attempts to persuade the Palestinians to give up their U.N. bid and enter negotiations with Israel instead.Israel has recently moved ahead on plans to build more than 2,500 new apartments in disputed east Jerusalem, and Israeli officials say 2,700 more will be approved soon.The U.S. has been critical of those plans. All three projects could take years to build.Associated Press writer Matt Lee in Washington contributed to this report.
