Palestinian victims describe being used as shields by Hamas

Members of a Gaza family whose farm was turned into a "fortress" by Hamas fighters have reported that they were helpless to stop Hamas from using them as human shields. They described how for years Hamas has used their property and homes as shields for military installations from which to launch rockets into Israel, dig tunnels and store arms. According to the victims, those who tried to object were shot in the legs by Hamas.

WHY IS OBAMA SUCH A ARAB-MUSLIM SUPPORTER.AND WORSHIPS EVERY COMMUNIST MUSLIM LEADER THAT COMES TO THE WHITE HOUSE.AND THIS IS THE REASON SO MANY AT THE WHITE HOUSE ARE ARAB-MUSLIMS.

OBAMAS MAKEUP
50% ARAB
42% WHITE
08% BLACK

The following is the full text of the comments by Hamas representative Fathi Hammad months before the war, articulating the Hamas ideology to use civilians as human shields for Hamas fighters:"For the Palestinian people death has become an industry, at which women excel and so do all people on this land: the elderly excel, the Jihad fighters excel, and the children excel. Accordingly [Palestinians] created a human shield of women, children, the elderly and the Jihad fighters against the Zionist bombing machine, as if they were saying to the Zionist enemy: 'We desire death as you desire life.'"

1 Gather yourselves together, yea, gather together, O nation not desired;

3  Seek ye the LORD, all ye meek of the earth, which have wrought his judgment; seek righteousness, seek meekness: it may be ye shall be hid in the day of the LORD’S anger.
4  For Gaza shall be forsaken, and Ashkelon a desolation: they shall drive out Ashdod at the noon day, and Ekron shall be rooted up.(ITS NO ACCIDENT THAT IN THIS GAZA WAR ITS ASHKELON-ASHDOD AND THE MURDERER HAMAS IN GAZA WERE MOST OF THE BOMBING ARE)(THIS IS PROPHECY COMING TO PASS BIGTIME)

6  And the sea coast (GAZA) shall be dwellings and cottages for shepherds, and folds for flocks.
7  And the coast (GAZA) shall be for the remnant of the house of Judah;(ISRAEL) they shall feed thereupon: in the houses of Ashkelon shall they lie down in the evening: for the LORD their God shall visit them, and turn away their captivity.(BY THIS PROPHECY I PREDICT ISRAEL WILL RETAKE GAZA SO ISRAELIS AROUND THE WORLD CAN IMMIGRATE THERE AND BUILD HOMES AND LIVE)

30  And the firstborn of the poor shall feed, and the needy shall lie down in safety: and I will kill thy root with famine, and he shall slay thy remnant.
31  Howl, O gate; cry, O city; thou, whole Palestina,(ARABS) art dissolved: for there shall come from the north a smoke, and none shall be alone in his appointed times.
32  What shall one then answer the messengers of the nation? That the LORD hath founded Zion,(JERUSALEM) and the poor of his people shall trust in it.

From today’s New York Times (and of course this is the LAST paragraph of the piece):

NYT Civilian or Not Screen shot with obligatory dead baby.The Times analysis, looking at 1,431 names, shows that the population most likely to be militants, men ages 20 to 29, is also the most overrepresented in the death toll: They are 9 percent of Gaza’s 1.7 million residents, but 34 percent of those killed whose ages were provided. At the same time, women and children under 15, the least likely to be legitimate targets, were the most underrepresented, making up 71 percent of the population and 33 percent of the known-age casualties.

Finally NYT Does Some Journalism And Agrees With Israellycool
Posted by: Brian of London August 7, 2014   

So basically, ignoring minor details like the fact that they’re starting their age bracket at 20 (we have a Hamas terrorist in hospital in Israel who is 16 who crawled through a tunnel to kill kids), they’ve come to the same conclusion Dave and our dedicated reader came to weeks ago.The talk of 80% civilian casualties is complete rubbish and was easily verifiable as rubbish just from looking at Al Jazeera weeks ago. And the NYT actually had people in Gaza! And as Israeli sources are talking about 900+ dead terrorists, something is going to collapse, just like it always does after months of the lying press repeating Hamas’s PR machine propaganda.Well done Jodi Rudoren and the New York Times, pity you didn’t start doing your job back when the fighting started.But of course, even a piece about under-reporting of dead terrorists wouldn’t be complete without a dead Palestinian baby picture. Oh well, I guess you had to go with that picture, you didn’t have any real photo journalists in the Gaza strip capable of photographing a terrorist or a rocket launch..

Israel strikes Gaza after militants resume rocket fire-Reuters-By Nidal al-Mughrabi and Ori Lewis-AUG 08,14-YAHOONEWS

GAZA/JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Israel launched air strikes across the Gaza Strip on Friday in response to Palestinian rockets fired after Egyptian-mediated talks failed to extend a 72-hour truce in the month-long war.Egypt later called for a resumption of the ceasefire, saying only a few points remained to be agreed. Palestinian factions said they would meet Egyptian mediators later in the day, but there was no sign of any imminent deal.There was also no immediate response from Israel. However, a government official said earlier that Israel would not negotiate with Palestinians while militants continued to unleash missiles.As warning sirens sounded in southern Israel, the military said Hamas had fired at least 45 rockets on Friday morning and Israel's "Iron Dome" interceptor system had brought down two.By resuming its attacks, Hamas appeared to be trying to put pressure on Israel, making clear it was ready to fight on to end a blockade of Gaza that both Israel and neighboring Egypt have imposed on the impoverished enclave.In the first casualties since hostilities resumed on Friday, Palestinian medical officials said a 10-year-old boy was killed in an Israeli strike near a mosque in Gaza City. An Islamic Jihad militant was killed in a later hit, local officials said.In Israel, police said two people were injured by mortar fire from Gaza.After a huge explosion in Gaza City, apparently from an air raid, a military spokesman said Israel had responded to Hamas rocket fire by launching air strikes at "terror sites" across the Gaza Strip."We will continue to strike Hamas, its infrastructure, its operatives, and restore security for the State of Israel," Lieutenant-Colonel Peter Lerner said in a statement.Heavy civilian casualties and destruction during Israel's campaign against militants in packed residential areas of the Gaza Strip have raised international alarm over the past month, but efforts to prolong a ceasefire at talks in Cairo failed.

GO-BETWEENS

Israel had earlier said it was ready to agree to an extension as Egyptian go-betweens pursued negotiations with Israeli and Palestinian delegates.Hamas spokesman Sami Abu Zuhri said Israel had rejected most Palestinian demands. "However, we did not close the door and will continue with the negotiations," he said.The Palestinians had wanted Israel to agree in principle to demands which include lifting the blockade on the Gaza Strip, the release of prisoners and the opening of a sea port, but this had been rebuffed, Abu Zuhri said.Israel has shown little interest in easing its naval blockade of Gaza and controls on overland traffic and airspace, suspecting Hamas could restock with weapons from abroad.In Cairo, the foreign ministry called on both sides "to return immediately to the ceasefire commitment and exploit the opportunity available to resume negotiations on the very limited sticking points that remain in the fastest possible time".In Gaza, some families who had returned to their homes in the northern town of Beit Hanoun during the ceasefire gathered their belongings and headed back to the United Nations shelters where they had sought refuge over the past few weeks.Beit Hanoun resident Yamen Mahmoud, a 35-year-old father of four, said: "Today I am fleeing again. I am not against resistance but we need to know what to do. Is it war or peace?"Gaza officials say the war has killed 1,877 Palestinians, most of them civilians. Hamas said on Thursday it had executed an unspecified number of Palestinians as Israeli spies.Israel says 64 of its soldiers and three civilians have died in the fighting that began on July 8, after a surge in Palestinian rocket salvoes into Israel.It expanded its air and naval bombardment of the Gaza Strip into a ground offensive on July 17, and pulled its infantry and armor out of the enclave on Tuesday after saying it had destroyed more than 30 infiltration tunnels dug by militants.

ALIENATE EGYPT

Hamas's refusal to extend the ceasefire could further alienate Egypt, whose government has been hostile to the group and which ultimately controls Gaza's main gateway to the world, the Rafah border crossing.The announcement that the truce would not be extended came a few minutes after it expired at 1.00 a.m. ET following lengthy talks that continued in Cairo through the night.Palestinian negotiators from factions including Hamas, Islamic Jihad and Fatah left their hotel for talks with Egyptian intelligence at 9.30 p.m. on Thursday, returning more than six and a half hours later looking subdued and saying no deal had yet been reached. Palestinian officials paced the lobby, speaking on their phones and holding meetings, trying to reach a final decision as the deadline approached. A source at Cairo airport said the Israeli delegation left shortly before the truce expired.(Additional reporting by Stephen Kalin and Maggie Fick in Cairo, and Allyn Fisher-Ilan in Jerusalem; Writing by Giles Elgood in Jerusalem; Editing by Janet Lawrence and Crispian Balmer)

Bennett: IDF Ready to Strike Back Immediately-Economics Minister stands behind Netanyahu against Hamas 'blackmail' in the event ceasefire breaks down.By Moshe Cohen-First Publish: 8/7/2014, 4:38 PM-IsraelnationalNewshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ro8GBjE-82g

Economics Minister Naftali Bennett said that he was fully behind Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu when he says that Israel would respond with full force if Hamas resumed its attacks on Israel.“I support the Prime Minister for his stance on the attempts by Hamas to blackmail us with terror threats against Israelis to achieve its goals, and for his opposition to giving in to the demands of the terrorists, which would just encourage them further.”In a press conference with foreign journalists on Wednesday, Netanyahu said that Israel was “closely monitoring the implementation of the ceasefire on the ground, and we are holding position in the event it is violated. The army is in the field, with reinforcements, to meet any scenario."Earlier Thursday, Hamas said that unless all its demands were met – including the opening of a seaport and airport in Gaza – the terror groups would resume firing rockets at Israel on Friday morning at 8 AM, the end of the 72 hour cease-fire period Egypt negotiated with Hamas and Israel. Egypt on Thursday called for a three-day extension of that truce.In an interview with Arutz Sheva, Bennett said that Israel could not submit to Hamas threats. “We cannot be a hostage of Hamas,” he said. “Any concession to Hamas today is the foundation of a war tomorrow.”In a press conference Thursday, Finance Minister Yair Lapid sounded a similar tone, warning that Hamas “should not test us.”“The IDF is ready, the air force is ready, and any rockets will be responded to with heavy fire by us. The military and diplomatic 'wings' of Hamas are one and the same,” Lapid added. “Anyone who is at the top level of a terror group is taking his life into his hands.”

Op-Ed: My Outline for a Solution in Gaza-Clear and concise, the steps towards achieving quiet in Gaza.Published: Tuesday, July 15, 2014 11:01 PM-MK Moshe Feiglin

Ultimatum – One warning from the Prime Minister of Israel to the enemy population, in which he announces that Israel is about to attack military targets in their area and urges those who are not involved and do not wish to be harmed to leave immediately. Sinai is not far from Gaza and they can leave. This will be the limit of Israel’s humanitarian efforts. Hamas may unconditionally surrender and prevent the attack.

Attack – Attack the entire ‘target bank’ throughout Gaza with the IDF’s maximum force (and not a tiny fraction of it) with all the conventional means at its disposal. All the military and infrastructural targets will be attacked with no consideration for ‘human shields’ or ‘environmental damage’. It is enough that we are hitting exact targets and that we gave them advance warning.

Siege – Parallel to the above, a total siege on Gaza. Nothing will enter the area. Israel, however, will allow exit from Gaza. (Civilians may go to Sinai, fighters may surrender to IDF forces).

Defense – Any place from which Israel or Israel’s forces were attacked will be immediately attacked with full force and no consideration for ‘human shields’ or ‘environmental damage’.

Conquer – After the IDF completes the "softening" of the targets with its fire-power, the IDF will conquer the entire Gaza, using all the means necessary to minimize any harm to our soldiers, with no other considerations.

Elimination- The GSS and IDF will thoroughly eliminate all armed enemies from Gaza. The enemy population that is innocent of wrong-doing and separated itself from the armed terrorists will be treated in accordance with international law and will be allowed to leave. Israel will generously aid those who wish to leave.

Sovereignty – Gaza is part of our Land and we will remain there forever. Liberation of parts of our land forever is the only thing that justifies endangering our soldiers in battle to capture land. Subsequent to the elimination of terror from Gaza, it will become part of sovereign Israel and will be populated by Jews. This will also serve to ease the housing crisis in Israel. The coastal train line will be extended, as soon as possible, to reach the entire length of Gaza.

According to polls, most of the Arabs in Gaza wish to leave. Those who were not involved in anti-Israel activity will be offered a generous international emigration package. Those who choose to remain will receive permanent resident status. After a number of years of living in Israel and becoming accustomed to it, contingent on appropriate legislation in the Knesset and the authorization of the Minister of Interior, those who personally accept upon themselves Israel’s rule, substance and way of life of the Jewish State in its Land, will be offered Israeli citizenship.

Terrorists Explode Gas Pipeline in the Sinai, Cutting off Gaza-Pipeline attack by unknown terrorists the 24th since 2011.By Dalit Halevi, Tova Dvorin-First Publish: 8/7/2014, 1:35 PM-ISRAELNATIONALNEWS

Terrorists in the Sinai have bombed the Egyptian gas pipeline to Gaza for the 24th time since February 2011 - this time, southeast of Arish.Egyptian security sources reported that terrorists placed large amounts of explosives under the gas pipe, and the damage has stopped the flow of gas to Gaza.No specific terrorist organization has yet taken responsibility for the attack. Sinai terrorists have blown up gas pipelines in the peninsula numerous times, in attacks that have escalated since the ouster of Muslim Brotherhood President Mohammed Morsi.Some of the attacks targeted a pipeline that supplied gas to Jordan and Israel, forcing Egypt to halt supplies to these two countries.

GAZA CITY, Gaza City (AP) — Hamas held on Thursday its first public rally since a cease-fire with Israel, vowing never give up its arms and continue to fight for the lifting of the blockade of Gaza.The uncompromising rhetoric of the official, Mushir al-Masri, comes on the third and final day of a truce in the monthlong Israel-Hamas war and at a time when the militant group and other Palestinian factions are in Cairo indirectly negotiating with Israel for a permanent cease-fire and steps to lift the seven-year-old blockade of the coastal strip by Israel and Egypt.In Cairo, Egyptian security officials struggled to bring the two sides closer together, with one official saying that Hamas and other Gaza militants were refusing to compromise. Unlike Hamas rallies on previous occasions, only several thousand showed up for the event in the heart of Gaza City. The modest turnout was not necessarily a sign of waning support for the group, but most likely a reflection of the fatigue felt by most of Gaza's 1.8 million residents after four weeks of a ruinous war, as well as anxiety over whether the three-day truce will be extended."Our fingers are on the trigger and our rockets are trained at Tel Aviv," al-Masri told the rally.Cairo is mediating indirect talks between Israel and Hamas on extending the 72-hour cease-fire that expires Friday morning. Hamas has demanded the lifting of an Israeli and Egyptian blockade imposed on the coastal territory after the Islamic militant group seized power in 2007.Israel has said the militants must disarm first, which al-Masri insisted was out of the question."The war is not over yet. Our men are still in the field, manning forward positions, our fingers are on the trigger, and our rockets are trained on Tel Aviv, Lod and beyond," he said. "It is out of the question that the weapons of the resistance should be on the negotiating table. They have not been put on the table and, God willing, they will never be."Al-Masri insisted fighters are "in good shape" despite four weeks of fighting and still had tunnels extending into Israel that could be used for attacks if Hamas' demands are not met.The Egyptian security official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to talk to the media, said the Palestinian delegation's stance had hardened after the arrival in Cairo of Hamas and Islamic Jihad leaders from the Gaza Strip.He said Azzam al-Ahmad, the leader of the delegation and the representative of the Western-backed Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, had threatened to withdraw from the talks if the two militant groups do not show more "flexibility," adding that the delegation, which was supposed to leave Cairo on Thursday, would stay through the weekend.Palestinian delegates could not immediately be reached for comment.The war stemmed from the killing of three Israeli teens in the West Bank in June. Israel blamed the killings on Hamas and launched a massive arrest campaign, rounding up hundreds of its members in the West Bank, as Hamas and other militants unleashed rocket fire from Gaza.On July 8 Israel began an air campaign on the territory and nine days later it sent in ground troops it said would target rocket launchers and cross-border tunnels built by Hamas for attacks inside Israel.Nearly 1,900 Palestinians have been killed in the fighting, three-quarters of them civilians, according to the United Nations. Israel says some 900 Palestinian militants were among the dead. Sixty-four Israeli soldiers and three civilians inside Israel have also been killed.___Michael reported from Cairo.

HRW slams Jordan for rebuffing Palestinian refugees from Syria-AFP-AUG 7,14-YAHOONEWS

Amman (AFP) - Advocacy group Human Rights Watch accused Jordan Thursday of refusing entry to, or forcibly deporting, Palestinian refugees escaping Syria in what it called a defiance of the country's international obligations.In a report released in Amman, the New York-based group said Jordan has officially banned their entry since January 2013 and has forcibly deported more than 100, including women and children, who managed to enter the country since mid-2012.The report said Jordan’s rebuff of Palestinians fleeing Syria contrasts with its treatment of Syrians, more than 600,000 of whom have taken shelter in Jordan since the beginning of the Syrian conflict in March 2011."Palestinian refugees face the same violence, killing and destruction that cause Syrian nationals themselves to want to flee to different countries," HRW Middle East researcher Adam Coogle told a news conference in Amman.The study, entitled "Not Welcome: Jordan's Treatment of Palestinians Escaping Syria," is based on interviews with more than 30 people affected by the non-admission policy, Coogle said.According to the report, most of Syria’s neighbouring countries have also placed entry restrictions on Palestinians from Syria, "leaving thousands stuck and facing great dangers."“No refugees fleeing the violence in Syria -– Syrians and Palestinians alike –- should be denied entry and forced back against their will,” HRW said, urging Jordan to rescind its ban.It also urged an end to deportations, saying Jordanian authorities often separated and deported Palestinian men from their families, "in some cases leaving the families without their primary source of income.""The deportations violate Jordan’s international obligation of non-refoulement, the prohibition in international law on returning refugees and asylum seekers to places where their lives or freedom would be threatened, or the return of anyone to the risk of torture," HRW said.

Tories seem to have trouble defining Justin Trudeau to voters-By Andy Radia | Canada Politics – aug 7,14-YAHOONEWS

There's a political theory that goes something like this: Define your opponent before they have an opportunity to define themselves.It's a theory that, when executed well, can pay huge dividends.In 2011, the Tories did a masterful job in defining then-Liberal leader Michael Ignatieff as someone who was "just visiting." They launched an ad campaign portraying Ignatieff as someone who came back to Canada just because he wanted to be prime minister.Incidentally, it looks as if Ignatieff was "just visiting." He's now back teaching at Harvard after leading the Liberals to third-party status for the first time in its storied history.In 2012, as explained politic365.com, the Barack Obama campaign defined Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney as an "Out of Touch Scrooge McDuck."It worked: come election day 2012, the American public dismissed Romney as an aloof multi-millionaire who couldn't relate to the average Joe.We're also seeing Canada's Conservative Party deploy the 'define your opponent' strategy against the opposition leaders in the lead-up to the 2015 federal election.Their narrative for the NDP leader came easy. If you believe the Conservatives, Thomas Mulcair is "Angry Tom," with extreme views that would essentially freeze Canada's economy.Defining Justin Trudeau, however, has been a little more challenging for them.They started out – the day after Trudeau won the Liberal leadership in 2013 – with an ad campaign suggesting that Trudeau is "in over his head." They suggested that he lacked the substance, the knowledge and the know-how to be prime minister.While that may have entertained the Tory base, it didn't help stall Trudeau's momentum in the opinion polls.They've since moved on to the narrative about Trudeau and his policy about legalizing and regulating marijuana. The Tories have been circulating leaflets claiming that Trudeau has been "speaking to elementary school students about the benefits of marijuana."They even used the Trudeau/pot theme in the recent Scarborough-Agincourt byelection to absolutely no success. The Liberals handily won the riding by a much wider margin than the 2011 election.And now there appears to be a third narrative about Trudeau that seems to be emerging: That Trudeau is weak on crime and soft on terrorists.This narrative seems to be pushed by the right-leaning Sun News Network whose website's "top story" on Wednesday was titled: "Trudeau lambasted for visiting mosque linked to al-Qaeda recruitment.""Justin Trudeau is being accused of 'intellectual dishonesty' for his visiting a Montreal-area mosque that American government sources say has been an Al-Qaeda recruitment centre," notes the column."The Liberal leader reluctantly acknowledged last weekend he'd attended the Al-Sunnah Al-Nabawiah mosque, which follows the strict Wahhabist interpretation of Islam (codified and practiced in Saudi Arabia) then cast doubt on the veracity of the American government's designation."The article goes on to quote a PMO spokesperson who says this:"First, Justin Trudeau refused to condemn the horrific bombing of the Boston Marathon – instead he tried to rationalize the actions of evil individuals. It's clear that Justin Trudeau cannot be trusted to keep Canadians safe."Will this narrative work? Nothing else has.According to the latest Forum Research poll, the Liberals have opened up a 16-point lead on the Conservatives while Trudeau maintains just a slight advantage in the preferred prime minister question. Conservative supporters will tell you that it's still a long time before the election. They might argue that mid-term opinions polls mean very little.But if one of their election tactics is to define Justin Trudeau – as it seems to be – they certainly haven't done it yet.And, if they don't do it soon, they run the risk of Trudeau actually defining himself first.

Hawaii braces for Hurricane Iselle, with Julio right behind-Reuters-By Malia Mattoch McManus-aug 7,14-YAHOONEWS

HONOLULU (Reuters) - Hurricane Iselle barreled west across the Pacific Ocean toward the Hawaiian Islands on Wednesday, where officials warned residents and tourists of possible flooding and mudslides and ordered schools closed.The storm was about 700 miles (1,130 km) east of Hilo, on the Island of Hawaii, at 7 a.m. Hawaiian Standard Time on Wednesday and heading west-northwest at 15 miles per hour (24 km per hour) with maximum sustained winds of 85 mph (137 kph), according to the National Hurricane Center.Iselle was expected to weaken into a tropical storm before reaching the islands sometime on Friday morning but forecasters said it could still bring high winds and 10-to-15-foot (three-to-4.5-meter) surf to the tourist haven."The Big Island has two peaks of up to 14,000 feet. If the hurricane makes a direct hit over the Big Island, how much of a blocking effect that has we don't know," said Ray Tanabe, acting director for the National Weather Service in the pacific region.Tracking about two days behind Iselle was hurricane Julio, which was upgraded from a tropical storm on Wednesday and could also bring heavy surf and high winds.Residents stocked up on basics as authorities in Honolulu advised them to prepare a seven-day disaster supply kit. Shoppers waited in lines at supermarkets with carts full of bottled water, batteries and nonperishable food."With Hawaii's remoteness, it could be as long as a week before a full disaster relief operation can be initiated," the Honolulu Department of Emergency Management said in a statement. Honolulu school teacher Gina Nakahodo said she had felt calm until she reached the empty water aisle of her local grocery store early on Tuesday."We've had so many storms that have passed us by, but with these two back to back you begin to worry. Then all of the sudden the aisles are empty and there's no water and it makes your heart pound a little," Nakahodo said.She said she talked to a couple visiting from California and told them everything was going to be OK. "But in the back of my mind I'm wondering, 'what's going to happen?'," she said.The Coast Guard warned people to prepare for the onset of heavy weather by Thursday, with the two hurricanes expected to generate extreme sea conditions, storm surge and surf of 10 to 15 feet throughout the island chain.The National Weather Service issued a flash flood watch from early Thursday to early Saturday, with Hurricane Iselle expected to bring heavy rains to the islands.Public schools would be closed on Thursday on the islands of Maui, Molokai, Lanai and the Big Island, the Hawaii State Department of Education said.Julio was expected to arrive at the Hawaiian Islands as early as Sunday, but officials said with Iselle on their doorstep, that storm was still their primary focus.(Additional reporting by Eric M.

U.S. weather forecaster lowers chance of El Nino in autumn-Reuters-aug 7,14-YAHOONEWS

(Reuters) - A U.S. weather forecaster scaled down its estimate for the chances of the El Nino weather phenomenon occurring during autumn and early winter in the Northern Hemisphere to 65 percent, from an earlier estimate of 80 percent.The Climate Prediction Center (CPC), an agency of the National Weather Service, had made its earlier prediction in July."The consensus of forecasters expects El Nino to emerge.during August-October and to peak at weak strength during the late fall and early winter," the agency said in a monthly update on Thursday.Last month, the CPC forecast a 70 percent chance for El Nino to occur in the summer."Over the last month, model forecasts have slightly delayed the El Nino onset," it said.The agency downplayed the possibility of a strong El Nino, saying there was a higher chance of a weak to moderate event.(Reporting by Marcy Nicholson; Editing by Jeffrey Benkoe and Bernadette Baum)

Smoke won't have lasting health effects: NWT health official-CBC – AUG 7,14-YAHOONEWS

N.W.T.'s chief medical official says healthy people whose lungs get irritated by forest fire smoke will recover a few days after the smoke clears.Dr. Andre Corriveau, the territory's chief medical officer of health, says data from previous wildfires in California and Australia help determine what effects smoke can have on a person's health.He says "prolonged" exposure to smoke is measured in years, not in weeks. "It does have a health impact that can be quite serious for people who have predisposing conditions but for the average person they seem to recover fairly well, and whether it's one week or six weeks it's still considered relatively short exposure," he says.Corriveau cautions people with pre-existing health conditions like heart problems, asthma or other lung problems, to stay indoors and limit outdoor activity when the smoke is noticeably thick.Corriveau says this applies especially to the elderly, pregnant women, newborn babies and young children. Air pollution levels in Yellowknife have frequently gone off the chart in recent weeks as smoke from some the territory's nearly 300 forest fires blows into the city.Earlier this week, Yellowknife resident Dale Bouchard said she was getting out of town so her kids could breathe some clean air."I'm getting sick of it and I'm really, really disappointed and actually very confused as to why the territorial government hasn't done something for the people of Yellowknife and the Northwest Territories," she said."The kids have been smelling this heavy smoke all summer. They're coughing, got headaches. We have to keep them indoors all the time and it's just been awful, even for adults."Resident Jonathan Churcher said he has taken to wearing a face mask."What are we actually breathing? What toxins are in the air," he said.He said his mask isn't airtight, "but it does flex as I breathe in and out so I know a lot of the air is actually coming through the filter."

Masks have pros and cons

For workers who spend most of the day outside, Corriveau suggests taking more frequent breaks, longer breaks and going indoors to a place where they can recuperate.He says workers can also ask a supervisor for a specialized face mask."An N95 mask can make a difference although they're uncomfortable to wear, especially if you're exerting yourself," he said."People can take more frequent breaks, longer breaks and go indoors and go to a place where they can recuperate."Corriveau says only N95 or N99 masks will make a difference in filtering particulates. But he warns that, besides being uncomfortable, the mask will stop working as soon as it gets humid and on a hot day, and an N95 or N99 mask will only last half an hour before it has to be changed.

First water test results from breached tailings pond expected today-By The Canadian Press | -aug 7,14-YAHOONEWS

LIKELY, B.C. - An early assessment of the environmental impact of a mine tailings pond failure in British Columbia is expected today when the first water-testing results may be released.Provincial Mines Minister Bill Bennett has so far said it's too soon to estimate the damage caused by the Mount Polley Mine breach, but says he hopes for positive news.The government has promised a thorough investigation into the actions of the provincial government and Imperial Metals in the wake of Monday's dam collapse.A tailings pond dam at the mine failed on Monday, sending 10 million cubic metres of water and 4.5 million cubic metres of toxic silt into Polley Lake and Quesnel Lake.The breach prompted a water-use ban along surrounding lakes and rivers and the B.C. environment ministry has collected water samples in the area.The company's president has said the water is already almost drinking quality, but a ministry official disagreed, based on metals found in the water at other times in recent years.Sharon Borkowski owns Northern Lights Lodge in the community closest to the disaster and she says while she's optimistic with the company's statements that the water is safe, she's still cautiously awaiting testing results.Imperial Metals was formally ordered Wednesday to clean up the site and prevent more material from escaping.

Ukraine government suspends ceasefire at MH17 crash site after recovery mission halted-Reuters-aug 7,14-YAHOONEWS

KIEV (Reuters) - The Ukrainian government said on Thursday it was suspending a ceasefire with separatist rebels at the crash site of the Malaysian airliner after an international recovery mission had been halted.The Netherlands, which lost 196 of its citizens in the 298 passengers and crew who died on flight MH17 which was shot down on July 17, said on Wednesday it was halting the recovery mission because of continued fighting in the region.Prime Minister Mark Rutte told journalists in The Hague the risk posed to the team of 70 Australian, Dutch and Malaysian experts was too great to continue working in the area.A Ukrainian defense spokesman said Ukrainian forces were not carrying out any military action within 20 km (12 miles) of the site.A government statement said later: "Experts were in agreement that the ceasefire regime in the area of the downing of the plane ... will not be in force until there is a second stage of the investigation."(Writing By Richard Balmforth; Editing by Alison Williams)

Russia imposes retaliatory sanctions on EU-Today @ 09:30-aug 7,14-euobserver-By Nikolaj Nielsen

BRUSSELS - Moscow is slapping a ban on EU-imported fruit and vegetables and food from the US in retaliation for western economic sanctions.A Russian decree published Wednesday (6 August) called upon government officials to put forward a list of agricultural products and raw materials to be banned for up to one year.The decree does not list the specific products or name the countries although the government is expected to announce the full list on Thursday.But Russia's food safety watchdog VPSS, Alexei Alexeenko, was quoted by RIA Novosti as saying fruit and vegetables from member states backing the EU sanctions would be blacklisted."Fruits and vegetables from the European Union will also be under full ban," he said.According to RIA Novosti, Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Italy, Lithuania, The Netherlands, Slovakia, and Spain could be on the Russian list.Among the products cited by country are meats, poultry, fish, drinks and coffee.Poland was already targeted last month when Moscow announced it would no longer import Polish apples, pears, cherries, nectarines, plums, and varieties of cabbage. The Russian government cited health and sanitary reasons.The latest ban also hits import products from the US, and possibly Canada, and Australia.The measures are seen as a tit-for-tat response to broad economic sanctions recently imposed on Russia by the European Union.The EU’s so-called stage three sanctions ban financial instruments by Russian-state-owned banks, enact a non-retroactive arms embargo, and impose export limitations on dual-use technologies.The European Commission says the EU stands to lose €40 billion this year alone from the stage three sanctions and that the amount is set to increase to €50 billion next year.The effect of the sanctions has already caused unease in some EU states, with Finland saying it will potentially seek compensation.“It is without doubt clear that, if sanctions hit Finland disproportionately, we will seek support from our European partners,” said Finland’s prime minister Alexander Stubb.Russia is Finland’s largest trading partner, according to the Finnish-Russian Chamber of Commerce. Total Finnish exports last year to Russia amounted to €5.4 billion. Around 7.5 percent was food and drink, reports Finnish state broadcaster YLE.As the EU’s third largest trading partner, Russia is one of the biggest importers of fruit and vegetables grown by member states. In 2013, it imported around €2 billion worth of fruit and vegetables.In terms of overall trade, last year the EU exported some €120 billion in goods and another €28 billion in services to Russia.Agricultural products accounted for around €12 billion of the EU exports, according to the European Commission.Meanwhile as the sanctions battle steps up, Nato has estimated that some 20,000 Russian combat-ready soldiers are now stationed near the border with Ukraine.Poland has said there is now a greater risk that Russia will make a direct intervention in Ukraine."We have reasons to suspect – we have been receiving such information in the last several hours – that the risk of a direct intervention is higher than it was several days ago,” said prime minister Donald Tusk.

Ebola sparks states of emergency across west Africa-AFP-aug 7,14-YAHOONEWS

Monrovia (AFP) - Overwhelmed west African nations called states of emergency on Thursday as the death toll from a fast-spreading Ebola epidemic neared 1,000, and an elderly Spanish missionary was evacuated for treatment at home.Soldiers in Liberia's Grand Cape Mount province -- one of the worst-affected -- were restricting movement towards the capital Monrovia, where lawmakers gathered to ratify a 90-day state of emergency.Nigeria's public sector doctors suspended a nearly five-week strike citing an outbreak of the deadly tropical disease which has killed two and infected five others in Lagos, creating fear that the virus is taking hold in Africa's most populous country.Since breaking out earlier this year, Ebola has claimed 932 lives and infected more than 1,700 people across west Africa, according to the World Health Organisation. Ebola causes severe fever and, in the worst cases, unstoppable bleeding. It is transmitted through close contact with bodily fluids, and people who live with or care for patients are most at risk.As African nations struggled with the sheer scale of the epidemic, Spain flew home a 75-year-old Roman Catholic priest, Miguel Pajares, who contracted the disease while helping patients at a hospital in Monrovia.The missionary was the first patient in the outbreak to be evacuated to Europe for treatment.A specially equipped military Airbus A310 brought him to Madrid's Torrejon air base along with a Spanish nun, Juliana Bonoha Bohe, who had worked at the same Liberian hospital but did not test positive for the haemorrhagic fever, the Spanish government said.- Families separated -President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf said Liberians should expect certain rights to be suspended as the country imposes "extraordinary measures" necessary for "the very survival of our state."For Hawa Kollie, 35, that meant being blocked by soldiers from returning home to Monrovia after visiting her parents in the western town of Sinje."They say I cannot cross and I left my kids at home," she told AFP by phone.The restrictions were part of a necessary military operation to ensure that people from "infected zones" did not carry the virus into "non-infected zones," Information Minister Lewis Brown said.In Sierra Leone, which has the most confirmed infections, 800 troops including 50 military nurses were sent to guard hospitals and clinics treating Ebola patients, an army spokesman said. The parliament was to meet to ratify a state of emergency declared last week.- Nigeria strike suspended -The outbreak in Nigeria has been minor compared to those in Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone.But the seven confirmed cases in Lagos, Nigeria's economic capital and the largest city in sub-Saharan Africa, spurred the National Medical Association to call off a strike launched on July 1 over pay and conditions.The densely-packed city of more than 20 million people has a poor healthcare system and officials say that if Lagos sees a rise in infections public hospitals will need to be operational in order to avert a catastrophe.- Spanish priest stable -Immediately after landing on Thursday morning, ambulances took Pajares and Bohe to Madrid's Carlos III Hospital.The priest was stable and showing no sign of bleeding while the nun appeared to be well, health officials said.Two Americans who worked for Christian aid agencies in Liberia and were infected with Ebola while taking care of patients in Monrovia were taken back to the United States for treatment in recent days.They have shown signs of improvement after being given an experimental drug known as ZMapp, which is hard to produce on a large scale.The vast majority of those infected face a far inferior level of healthcare at home.There is no proven treatment or cure for Ebola and the use of the experimental drug has sparked controversy as Ebola experts call for it to be made available to African victims.- 'Too soon' for new drug? -US President Barack Obama said it was too soon to send experimental drugs for the treatment of Ebola to west Africa, however, urging officials instead to focus on building a "strong public infrastructure"."I think we have to let the science guide us. And I don't think all the information is in on whether this drug is helpful," Obama said on Wednesday.Nigeria's Health Minister Onyebuchi Chukwu has asked the United States about the possibility of getting the drug but Spain said it had not yet enquired about the serum."We do not know of the scientific evidence, the scientific basis, the results that this serum can provide," Antonio Alemany, director general of primary health care for the Madrid region, told a news conference."Obviously, if the serum is effective then the Spanish government will make contact to be able to use this treatment."The WHO is holding an emergency session behind closed doors in Geneva to decide whether to declare an international crisis. A decision is expected on Friday.First discovered in 1976 and named after a river in what is now the Democratic Republic of Congo, Ebola has killed around two-thirds of those infected, with two outbreaks registering fatality rates approaching 90 percent. The latest outbreak has a fatality rate of around 55 percent.

HERES VERSES FROM THE PEACE LOVING MUSLIM ISLAMIC SHARIA SEX FOR MURDER CULT QUARAN.KILL CHRISTIANS AND JEWS.
http://www.thereligionofpeace.com/quran/023-violence.htm

Quran (3:151) - "Soon shall We cast terror into the hearts of the Unbelievers, for that they joined companions with Allah, for which He had sent no authority".  This speaks directly of polytheists, yet it also includes Christians, since they believe in the Trinity (ie. what Muhammad incorrectly believed to be 'joining companions to Allah').

Quran (2:191-193) - "And kill them wherever you find them, and turn them out from where they have turned you out. And Al-Fitnah [disbelief] is worse than killing...but if they desist, then lo! Allah is forgiving and merciful.   And fight them until there is no more Fitnah [disbelief and worshipping of others along with Allah] and worship is for Allah alone.  But if they cease, let there be no transgression except against Az-Zalimun (the polytheists, and wrong-doers, etc.)"  (Translation is from the Noble Quran)  The historical context of this passage is not defensive warfare, since Muhammad and his Muslims had just relocated to Medina and were not under attack by their Meccan adversaries.  In fact, the verses urge offensive warfare, in that Muslims are to drive Meccans out of their own city (which they later did).  The use of the word "persecution" by some Muslim translators is thus disingenuous (the actual Muslim words for persecution - "idtihad" - and oppression - a variation of "z-l-m" - do not appear in the verse).  The actual Arabic comes from "fitna" which can mean disbelief, or the disorder that results from unbelief or temptation.  Taken as a whole, the context makes clear that violence is being authorized until "religion is for Allah" - ie. unbelievers desist in their unbelief.

Islamic State extends gains in north Iraq, Kirkuk bombed-Reuters-By Isabel Coles-AUG 7,14-YahooNews

ARBIL Iraq (Reuters) - Islamic State militants extended their gains in northern Iraq on Thursday, seizing more towns and strengthening a foothold near the Kurdish region in an offensive that has alarmed the Baghdad government and regional powers.The advance forced thousands of residents of Iraq's biggest Christian town to flee, fearing they would be subjected to the same demands the Sunni militants made in other captured areas - leave, convert to Islam or face death.The Islamic State, which is considered more extreme than al- Qaeda, sees Iraq's majority Shi'ites and minorities such as Christians and Yazidis, a Kurdish ethno-religious community, as infidels.In Rome, Pope Francis appealed to world leaders to help end the crisis in northern Iraq after the Islamic State advance forced thousands of Christians to flee.The militant group said in a statement on its Twitter account that its fighters had seized 15 towns, the strategic Mosul dam on the Tigris River and a military base, in an ongoing offensive that began at the weekend.Kurdish officials say their forces still control the dam, Iraq's biggest.On Thursday, two witnesses told Reuters by telephone that Islamic State fighters had hoisted the group's black flag over the dam, which could allow the militants to flood major cities or cut off significant water supplies and electricity.The Sunni militants inflicted a humiliating defeat on Kurdish forces in the weekend sweep, prompting tens of thousands from the ancient Yazidi community to flee the town of Sinjar for surrounding mountains.Some of the many thousands trapped by Islamic State fighters on Sinjar mountain have been rescued in the past 24 hours, a spokesman for the U.N. Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs said, adding that 200,000 had fled the fighting."This is a tragedy of immense proportions, impacting the lives of hundreds of thousands of people," spokesman David Swanson said by telephone.Many of the displaced people urgently need water, food, shelter and medicine, he said. A spokesman for the U.N. agency for children said many of the children on the mountain were suffering from dehydration and at least 40 had died.Yazidis, seen by the Islamic State as "devil worshipers", risk being executed by the Sunni militants seeking to establish an Islamic empire and redraw the map of the Middle East.In Kirkuk, a strategic oil town in the north, 11 were killed by two car bombs that exploded near a Shi'ite mosque holding displaced people, security and medical sources said.In other violence, a car bomb in a Shi'ite area of Baghdad killed 14.Gains by the Islamic State have raised concerns that militants across the Arab world will follow their cue.At the weekend the Sunni militants seized a border town in Lebanon, though they appear to have mostly withdrawn.

IRAQ'S INTEGRITY THREATENED

The Islamic State, which has declared a caliphate in the areas of Iraq and Syria it controls, clashed with Kurdish forces on Wednesday in the town of Makhmur, about 40 miles southwest of Arbil, the capital of the Kurdish autonomous zone.Witnesses said the militants had seized Makhmur, but Kurdish officials told local media their forces remained in control there, and television channels broadcast footage of Kurdish peshmerga fighters driving around the town.The mainly Christian town of Tilkaif, as well as Al Kwair, were overrun by militants, according to witnesses.The Islamic State poses the biggest threat to Iraq's integrity since the fall of Saddam Hussein in 2003. Its fighters and their Sunni allies also control a big chunk of western Iraq.The group has deepened sectarian tensions, pushing the country back to the dark days of the civil war that peaked in 2006-2007 under U.S.-led occupation.Bombings, kidnappings and executions are routine once again in Iraq, an OPEC member. Religious and ethnic minorities that have lived in the plains of the northern province of Nineveh are particularly vulnerable.Sunni militants have been purging Shi'ite Muslims of the Shabak and ethnic Turkmen minorities from towns and villages in Nineveh, and last month set a deadline for Christians to leave the provincial capital Mosul or be killed.The death toll from car bombings in crowded markets in Shi'ite areas of Baghdad climbed overnight to 59, with 125 wounded, security and medical sources said.The Islamic State's gains have prompted Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki, a Shi'ite, to order his airforce to help the Kurds, whose reputation as fearsome warriors was called into question by their defeat.There were several airforce strikes on Wednesday, including one the government said killed 60 "terrorists" in Mosul, but they did not appear to have broken the Islamic State's momentum.The militants' capture of the town of Sinjar, ancestral home of the Yazidi ethnic minority, prompted tens of thousands of people to flee to surrounding mountains, where they are at risk of starvation.The Islamic State sees the Yazidis, followers of an ancient religion derived from Zoroastrianism, as "devil worshippers". They are spread across a large area of northern Iraq and are part of the country's Kurdish minority.Many of their villages were destroyed when Saddam Hussein's troops tried to crush the Kurds. Some were taken away by the executed former dictator's intelligence agents.Now they are on the defensive again.Maliki has been serving in a caretaker capacity since an inconclusive election in April.He has defied calls by Kurds, Sunnis, fellow Shi'ites and regional power broker Iran to give up his bid for a third term and make room for a less polarising figure who can unite Iraqis against the Islamic State.But Maliki, an unknown when he first took office with considerable U.S. support in 2006, remains defiant, warning that any interference in the process of choosing a new prime minister would open the "gates of hell" in Iraq.(Additional reporting by Tom Miles in Geneva and James Mackenzie in Rome; Writing by Michael Georgy; Editing by Paul Taylor, Janet McBride and Will Waterman)

The ISIS Online Campaign Luring Western Girls to Jihad-Some of the European women already in the ranks of the Islamic State are trying to lure their ‘sisters’ to the marriage beds of the caliphate’s holy warriors.AUG 6,14-The Daily Beast-By Jamie Dettmer

BEIRUT, Lebanon — The self-proclaimed Islamic State, formerly known by the acronym ISIS, is actively recruiting Western women and girls. And in the process this “caliphate” that now occupies large swathes of Syria and Iraq is showing, once again, that it’s almost as shrewd with social media as it is ruthless on the battlefield.The tweets and blogs apparently are written by Western women married to jihadi warriors. They aim to persuade would-be “sisters” in Europe and the United States to travel to the Middle East to help this al-Qaeda spinoff build its extremist vision of an Islamic society. Potential caliph-ettes (as one is tempted to call them) are told their main contribution to the Islamic revolution will be through matrimony, not martyrdom; child-bearing, not gun-toting. One blogger called “Bird of Jannah” purrs: “Women are not equal to men. It can never be. Men are the leaders & women are [so] special that Allah has given them entire chapter in the Qur’an.”The propaganda usually eschews the gore and barbaric images often included in the general fare of jihadist online posts, such as the beheadings last month of dozens of Syrian army soldiers after a base was overrun in the northern Syrian province of Raqqa.Instead, the marketing focuses on what one analyst calls the “private sphere,” concentrating on the joys of jihadist family life and the “honor” of raising new fighters for Islam. The online recruiters stress the pleasure of providing the domesticity that a warrior waging jihad needs and by doing so serving Islam.“I will never be able to do justice with words as to how this place makes me feel,” tweets Umm Layth, purportedly a British woman in Syria married to a fighter. She cherishes, she says, the friendships she enjoys with “her fellow sisters and brothers in the Islamic State.”But throughout Umm Layth’s posts and those written by other jihadist women there is a morbid obsession with martyrdom. “Allahu Akbar, there’s no way to describe the feeling of sitting with the Akhawat [sisters] waiting on news of whose Husband has attained Shahadah [martyrdom],” writes Umm Layth.According to analysts at SITE Intelligence Group, a U.S.-based organization that tracks online activity by terrorists, the recruiting efforts may have had some success. “By creating content specifically targeting female jihadi supporters, the Islamic State is able to establish a pipeline to assist Western women in traveling to Syria to marry jihadi fighters and contribute to the formation of their new society,” the analysts argue.They add: “Significantly, these online networks have expanded in prominence and sophistication during the summer of 2014, suggesting that the Islamic State has already been successful in recruiting foreign women to leave their lives in the West, and is looking to build upon this strength.”“There’s no way to describe the feeling of sitting with the Akhawat [sisters] waiting on news of whose Husband has attained Shahadah [martyrdom].”

In June, Britain’s interior minister, Theresa May, warned that it isn’t just young Western men leaving to join the Islamic State in Syria. “We think around 400 U.K.-linked individuals have gone out to fight in Syria, mainly young men but also some women,” she told ITV News. U.K. officials say only about a dozen British women have gone thus far, but they worry the numbers will rise with the increased online activity luring vulnerable women to Syria.There have been several reports of European women traveling to Syria to join up with jihadists there. In April, two Austrian girls, aged 15 and 16, went missing in Vienna and resurfaced in Syria. They are being sought by Interpol. In May, 16-year-old British twins sneaked out of their home in Manchester and traveled to Syria to become jihadi brides. Salma and Zahra Halane telephoned their parents to tell them they had arrived in the war-torn country and told them “we’re not coming back.” And in July, the FBI arrested Denver nurse Shannon Maureen Conley, a 19-year-old Muslim convert, as she boarded a plane to fly to Turkey for onward travel to Syria—she was recruited online, although in her case by a Tunisian man who claimed he was fighting for ISIS.Not all women, it seems, are put off by the morbid prospect of sitting around waiting for husbands to achieve martyrdom. Women do respond to the tweets extolling the joys of the Islamic revolution. Many seek advice using both Twitter and ask.fm, a Latvian-based question-and-answer platform, about how to get to Syria or Iraq. Umm Layth urges them: “Biggest tip to sisters: don’t take detours, take the quickest route, don’t play around with your Hijrah [religious migration] by staying longer than 1 day for safety and get in touch with your contacts as soon as you reach your destination.”In April, Umm Layth, who has more than 2,000 Twitter followers, distributed online an English-language “Diary of a Muhajirah [migrant]” providing point-by-point guidance on what these brides-to-be can should expect. There are no mentions of the public stoning that IS advocates for adultery, nor of the punishments for transgressing strict dress codes, but the constrained lifestyle and the material hardships Western women will face aren’t entirely glossed over.Umm Layth warns prospective recruits that the biggest problem in deciding to take the plunge and head to Syria might be opposition from family. “Even if you know how right this path and decision is and how your love for Allah comes before anything and everything, this is still an ache which only one [who] has been through and experienced it can understand. The first phone call you make once you cross the borders is one of the most difficult things you will ever have to do…when you hear them sob and beg like crazy on the phone for you to come back it’s so hard,” she writes.She adds: “Many people in present day do not understand…why a female would choose to make this decision. They will point fingers and say behind your back and to your families’ faces that you are taking part in…sexual jihad.” But there is no question that extremist groups try to reward their fighters with brides, however they can be obtained. One obvious example elsewhere is the mass kidnapping of schoolgirls by Boko Haram in Nigeria.Islamic State has opened a “marriage bureau” in the northern Syrian town of Al Bab for women who want to wed jihadist fighters in territory they control, according to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, a UK-based pro-opposition group that relies on activists on the ground for its information.A key topic for discussion in the Tweets and online advice is what to do if parents oppose plans to go to Syria or refuse to bless a wedding—both major hurdles for believers who need parental consent to travel and marry.  The online recruiters say IS can appoint a guardian for them to provide permission. One of the Western jihadi women, Umm Anwar, says in her case the emir (leader) of her prospective husband was appointed and he phoned her father “to ask for my dad’s consent by phone.”Umm Anwar insists in online exchanges that her role in the Islamic State isn’t just being a housewife. She says she is able to use her education as a medical student and she says, “Women give birth to the mujahideen [warriors] and they are the ones who raise them and teach them.”

08/ 7/2014 - VATICAN INSIDER-“Caliphate” expels Christians from the Nineveh Plain-ISIL fighters-Faithful have been forced to flee cities and villages in the middle of the night. Cities and villages that have been home to Christian communities since time immemorial. Cardinal Filoni has launched an appeal for them-Gianni Valente

Rome-After capturing Mosul, jihadist Islamic State militants have now also taken hold of the villages in the Nineveh Plain which had been historical strongholds of local Christian communities in ancient Mesopotamia since time immemorial. Last night in Qaraqosh, Kramles, Talkief, Bartalla and other central areas, the Islamic Caliphate offensive crushed all resistance from the Peshmerga Kurds and the regular army serving the Kurdistan Regional Government.When the jihadist militia arrived – Cardinal Filoni said in an appeal launched through  Catholic news agency Fides – “Christians had to abandon everything, even their shoes, heading towards the Kurdistan Region barefoot.” The last twenty Christian families that have stayed behind in Qaraqosh have been told to leave by this evening if they wish to live. The effects of this exodus risk becoming more far-reaching because Erbil - the capital of Iraqi Kurdistan – “is not prepared to take them in as they have nowhere to put one thousand people,” the Prefect of Propaganda Fide said. Speaking to Fides, the cardinal called on the international community to take responsibility for these Christians in what he defined as “a serious humanitarian situation. These people are left to their own devices, the border is closed and they don’t know where to go. Some have already died, three or four young people have lost their lives. Immediate intervention is needed.”In the past two months, since Mosul was taken over by Sunni rebels led by fighters of the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) - on 9 June – most of the Christians living in Iraq’s second major city had sought refuge in villages in the Nineveh Plain.In Mosul, militants of the self-proclaimed Islamic Caliphate had gone on to occupy churches and convents, destroy Marian statues, pull down crosses, burn the Syro-Catholic archbishopric and impose an ultimatum on Christians; either you go, leaving your homes and property behind, or you pay the “protection tax” or you convert to Islam, or you die.Up until now, Kurdish Pashmerga militia had acted as a buffer, protecting the villages in the Nineveh Plain from Islamist raids. In June they managed to hold off an offensive which jihadists attempted to launch against the city of Qaraqosh. “We will all die together or we will all continue to live together with dignity,” this is what Masud Barzani, President of the autonomous region of Iraqi Kurdistan, told the Patriarch of Babylon of the Chaldeans, Louis Raphael I Sako and other representatives of other churches in northern Iraq.  During his meeting with the Patriarch and bishops, the Kurdish leader had also underlined the autonomous region’s willingness to welcome and save refugees and protect “their lives and their land” against those whom he called “terrorists”.The Chaldean Patriarch and the bishops of the Christian in northern Iraq, had proposed the creation of a “joint committee made up of members of the regional government and representatives of our people, in order to help suffering refugee families and improve their living conditions.” At the end of June, however, Marzio Babille, the head of UNICEF in Iraq, outlined the political plan behind the jihadist offensive: “The areas that are attacked are “cleansed” of ethnic and religious minority groups. This does not just happen to Christians but also to Turkmens who have had to flee south-eastern areas of Iraqi Kurdistan and are victims of targeted attacks in Kirkuk too. It is quite clear that the aim is to split the region into “areas”, where the various groups can or cannot live.”Now, the Caliphate’s new offensive seems to be snuffing out any flicker of hope that the Nineveh Plain’s fragile situation could be stabilised thanks to the protection offered by the Peshmerga Kurds,” Nizar Semaan – a Syro-Catholic priest who assists the Archbishop of Mosul of the Syrians, Yohanna Petros Moshe – told Vatican Insider. Some sections of the Iraqi Christian community had dreamed for a long time of transforming the Nineveh Plain into an autonomous region to be assigned to Christians. They hoped to make the ancestral dream of an independent home for Assyrian and Syrian Chaldean communities within Iraq, a reality. “It has not become clear that there is no future for Christians in that part of Iraq, which was home to the Christian faith since the very beginning. Western governments are also partly to blame for this because they have kept silent and have engaged in thoughtless policies in Iraq and across the Middle East, their only interest being to defend their own economic interests. I hope national and international community leaders will at least spare us from the ridiculous spectacle of their declarations of solidarity and their hollow indignation. With this passive attitude, they have allowed crimes to be perpetrated against Christians in Iraq, right under everyone’s noses and history will be the judge of this passivity.”

IDF chief warns Hamas leaders fair game if attacks resume-Gantz says military poised outside Gaza Strip, ready to strike; calls on southern residents to go back to their lives-By Marissa Newman August 6, 2014, 7:43 pm-The Times of Israel

IDF Chief of Staff Benny Gantz said Wednesday that Israel is prepared to strike Hamas leaders when they emerge from hiding, and warned that the IDF would retaliate strongly if the terror organization resumes its attacks on Israel.“Its commanders sit in their bunkers in hiding, and everywhere we can hit them, we will hit, if we want to,” he said on Wednesday, the second day of a three-day truce, during a press briefing near the Gaza Strip. “They will go outside when they please — if they do, they will see the extent of the damage to their fighters and the damage in the Gaza Strip, which unfortunately, is Hamas’s fault.”“I hope this lesson will be internalized in the Gaza Strip, because we will not hesitate to continue to mobilize our forces as necessary to ensure the security of Israeli citizens,” he said.The IDF’s top commander said that the responsibility for the civilian casualties lies with Hamas, which embedded its combat forces in civilian areas, and added the IDF had struck a significant blow to the terror organization.“We aren’t done,” he said. “If there are incidents, we will respond to them.”Gantz also urged the residents of the Gaza border towns to return home.“I am convinced the residents can return to their houses, till their fields, live well here, just as it was before,” he said.“Just as there was peace here before, it will be even quieter after [the operation],” Gantz asserted. “The IDF is not going anywhere. It remains to protect, to make breakthroughs, to seek the next challenges, and together with the citizens we will continue to enhance the security in this area.”As Israeli pundits begin to analyze the operation and question the interaction between the military and political leadership, Gantz took steps to stamp out any suggestion of a failure in communication.Stuart Winer contributed to this report.

Gazans who have lost everything want Hamas to resume fighting-But those who have something to live for are desperate for the truce to become a longer calm-By Avi Issacharoff August 6, 2014, 5:28 pm-The Times of Israel

Gaza, like the cities of Israel, is slowly returning to normal. Kind of.There are cars on its roads once more, and shoppers are flooding its markets. “We became accustomed very quickly to war – and even faster to peace,” Sameh, a prominent political analyst in Gaza, told The Times of Israel Wednesday.But the quiet, he said, is deceptive. “It’s not over yet. Hamas is under a lot of pressure to return to fighting if Egypt and Israel don’t allow the blockade to be lifted,” Sameh said.The residents of the Gaza Strip are torn between wanting the fighting to go on and wanting it to stop, he added.“Those who have lost their children and relatives actually want the fighting to continue. So do those whose houses were destroyed,” he said. “They don’t have anything to lose anymore, and they are pressuring [Hamas] not to stop now unless the blockade is lifted completely. On the other hand, those whose houses are still standing want it to end.”Sameh added, “You are sorely mistaken if you think it’s over. Have you seen any of the Hamas top brass leave the bunkers? From the political or the military wing? Yesterday, they said in no uncertain terms: We’re in the middle stage, not at the end of the war. And they are already preparing for the renewal of the clashes. They can’t stop now without a significant achievement in Cairo.”I asked him if easing the restrictions on movement through the border crossings with Israel would prevent Hamas from renewing the fighting.“Forget about it,” he said. “If they don’t get the opening of the Rafah crossing or agreement to build a port, they’ll start firing rockets again – and then we’ll have a tougher war ahead of us.”Other analysts sounded more hesitant. One of them explained that Gaza was like a soldier who was seriously wounded in battle, but in the heat of the moment, continued to attack. “Now that the clashes have come to a halt, Gaza will start screaming with pain. And I doubt it can stand on its feet long enough for another round of clashes.”Indeed, much of Gaza lies in ruins, particularly in areas such as Shejaiya, Beit Hanoun and Hiza. Like many other Gazans, Bassem went to see what remained of his destroyed house in Shejaiya on Tuesday — or rather, what didn’t remain of it.“There was nothing to see,” he told me. “Rubble. I tried to work out which heap of rubble belonged to my house and which pile of wrecked walls was the neighbor’s.”He has managed to rent a small apartment in a different neighborhood in Gaza City. There, he and his family have been living along with 45 other Gazans, without electricity or a working toilet.That’s not unusual. Reporters in Gaza estimate that nearly 300,000 Gazans were displaced during the war. Their houses were completely destroyed or too badly damaged to return to.“Who will rebuild your house?” I asked Bassem.“I have no idea,” he replied. “Nobody knows. This is the question everyone in Gaza wants answered now. We’re trying to see what will come out of [the talks in] Cairo. Maybe we’ll get some word from there. Otherwise, I don’t know what to say.”Bassem and his family are relatively lucky; not everyone is able to rent an alternative house or apartment. Most of the displaced Gazans who went out Tuesday to see the ruins of their houses returned to their relatives’ houses, or to UNRWA schools, where they’ve been staying in recent days.Imad, a friend from Gaza, told me that at least 50 people were currently living in his house in the Sheikh Radwan district of Gaza City.“There’s nothing else to be done; everyone has to help one another. But go see what’s happening in the yard of [the] Shifa [Hospital]. You’ll see what truly wretched people look like. There’s a tent city there, a real ‘nakba’ (catastrophe) – hundreds of families that live in tents and have nowhere to go now.”Imad, too, doesn’t know who will rehabilitate, who will rebuild.“We understand that an international summit on the rehabilitation of Gaza will be held in Norway at the beginning of September. Maybe we’ll get some answers then,” he said, sounding anything but confident.

Netanyahu lays out Israeli case for morality of Gaza campaign-The battle against Islamist terrorism is a test not only for the Jewish state but for the entire ‘civilized world,’ PM says-By Raphael Ahren August 6, 2014, 10:04 pm Updated: August 6, 2014, 10:09 pm-The Times of Israel
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Wednesday night set out a moral justification for the way the IDF has dealt with the Hamas strategy of firing rockets at Israel, and tunneling under the Israeli border, from the heart of Palestinian residential neighborhoods in Gaza.Arguing that Israel’s battle over the past month against terrorists in Gaza using civilians as human shields came during a critical test period, he said it would be a “moral mistake” as well as a practical one to not take action against terrorists operating from mosques, schools and other civilian areas.Such behavior would represent “an enormous victory for terrorists everywhere,” he said, and would result in more and more civilian deaths around the world.“What’s happening now is not only a test for Israel but for the international community, for the civilized world itself, [for] how it is to defend itself,” Netanyahu declared at a press conference on the second day of a 72-hour ceasefire that began on Tuesday morning.Terrorists must not be allowed to “fight from civilian areas with impunity” and rely on world condemnation of the victimized nation — in this case, Israel — for responding to attacks, he warned.The prime minister blamed Hamas for Gaza’s civilian deaths, due to its rejection of various ceasefire proposals throughout the campaign and its deliberate basing of its military infrastructure in the heart of Gaza population centers.Palestinian sources in Gaza say that over 1,800 people were killed in the past month during Operation Protective Edge; Israel says it killed some 900 combatants, and Netanyahu stressed that Israel “regrets” every civilian death. Israel entered the campaign in order to stem rocket fire from Gaza at Israeli towns and cities as well as to destroy a network of tunnels, dug by Hamas under the border, and used to launch attacks inside Israeli territory.“Ninety percent of the fatalities could have been avoided had Hamas not rejected then the ceasefire it accepts now,” he said of an Egyptian ceasefire proposal that Israel accepted three weeks ago. “Hamas needs to be blamed for these deaths, ostracized from the family of nations.”Israel’s response to the Hamas rocket and tunnel threat was “justified and proportionate” Netanyahu asserted, adding that “every civilian casualty is a tragedy — a tragedy of Hamas’s making.”It would have been “disproportionate” not to act, he reasoned, and therefore “to get our people killed.”Hamas fired over 3,000 rockets at Israel, including 600 from near to schools, mosques and homes, the Israeli army said Tuesday. Hamas gunmen also killed 11 IDF soldiers when emerging into Israel from its cross-border tunnels. Netanyahu said Wednesday that the Hamas “death squads” had planned much larger attacks on Israeli soldiers and civilians through the tunnels, and that demolishing them, as Israel has done in recent weeks, was a strategic necessity. In all, Israel lost 64 soldiers and three civilians in the campaign.The prime minister presented evidence to back up his assertions of Hamas’s reliance on Gazans as human shields, showing footage of what he said were mortars fired from near an UNRWA elementary school for boys. He also described a “terror tunnel” near a school and many tunnels dug from inside homes.“I think it’s very important for the truth to come out,” he said, devoting a section of his press conference to remarks in English, taking questions from foreign journalists, and saying Hamas had subjected foreign journalists to intimidation in Gaza in recent weeks.He also screened footage from indian, Finnish and French TV of Hamas firing rockets from civilian areas, including the outskirts of Gaza City’s main hospital — footage that was only broadcast in the last few days.Netanyahu offered condolences for the Palestinian citizens harmed or killed during the operation.“Israel deeply regrets every civilian casualty, every single one. We do not target them. People of Gaza are not our enemies. Our enemy is Hamas,” the prime minister said.The decision to pull forces out of Gaza last weekend was made only once the 30-plus sophisticated Hamas tunnels had been destroyed, he said. Netanyahu added that Israel was working “to create technological means to locate new tunnels that will reach into our territory.”Netanyahu stressed the need to prevent Hamas from rearming. That, he said, is the way “to prevent this conflict from bring repeated.”With regard to Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas’s role in negotiating a truce, Netanyahu said that the PA had played a part in talks and would continue to do so. Hamas seized control of Gaza from the PA in a violent takeover in 2007.“We have cooperated and are cooperating with the PA,” he said. “We’re prepared to see a role for them [in] the reconstruction of Gaza, humanitarian aid, security questions. The ceasefire agreement was coordinated with them.”Despite reports of bitter differences between Israel and the Obama administration throughout the war, Netanyahu thanked US Secretary of State John Kerry for his support, saying he had another “very good” conversation with Kerry on Wednesday afternoon. He welcomed Kerry’s calls for the disarmament of Gaza-based terror groups.He also praised the “iron discipline” of Israelis — a play on the “Iron Dome” which intercepted hundreds of the Hamas rockets — and lauded the Israel Defense Forces.“The IDF is an amazing army,” he said. “It’s a strong army [and] had major achievements. It stood and stands by all the requirements. The entire nation is behind the IDF, during peace and during war.“I am proud of the IDF. I am proud to be the prime minister of such a united people.”Times of Israel staff contributed to this report.
