1 THESSALONIANS 5:3-7
2 For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night.
3 For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.
4 But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.
5 Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness.
6 Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober.
7 For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are drunken in the night.

2 THESSALONIANS 2:3-4
3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed,(EU WORLD DICTATOR)the son of perdition;
4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.

REVELATION 17:12-13
12 And the ten horns (NATIONS) which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast.
13 These have one mind,(WORLD SOCIALISM) and shall give their power and strength unto the beast.

REVELATION 6:1-2
1 And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see.
2 And I saw, and behold a white horse:(PEACE) and he that sat on him had a bow;(EU DICTATOR) and a crown was given unto him:(PRESIDENT OF THE EU) and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.(MILITARY GENIUS)

2 THESSALONIANS 2:9-12
9 Even him,(EU WORLD DICTATOR) whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,
10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion,(THE FALSE RESURRECTION BY THE WORLD DICTATOR) that they should believe a lie:
12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

REVELATION 13:1-10
1 And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.(THE EU AND ITS DICTATOR IS GODLESS)
2 And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority.(DICTATOR COMES FROM NEW AGE OR OCCULT)
3 And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death;(MURDERERD) and his deadly wound was healed:(COMES BACK TO LIFE) and all the world wondered after the beast.(THE WORLD THINKS ITS GOD IN THE FLESH, MESSIAH TO ISRAEL)
4 And they worshipped the dragon (SATAN) which gave power unto the beast:(JEWISH EU DICTATOR) and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?(FALSE RESURRECTION,SATAN BRINGS HIM TO LIFE)
5 And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months.(GIVEN WORLD CONTROL FOR 3 1/2YRS)
6 And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God,(HES A GOD HATER) to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven.(HES A LIBERAL OR DEMOCRAT,WILL PUT ANYTHING ABOUT GOD DOWN)
7 And it was given unto him to make war with the saints,(BEHEAD THEM) and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.(WORLD DOMINATION)
8 And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.(WORLD DICTATOR)
9 If any man have an ear, let him hear.
10 He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity: he that killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints.(SAVED CHRISTIANS AND JEWS DIE FOR THEIR FAITH AT THIS TIME,NOW WE ARE SAVED BY GRACE BUT DURING THE 7 YEARS OF HELL ON EARTH, PEOPLE WILL BE PUT TO DEATH (BEHEADINGS) FOR THEIR BELIEF IN GOD (JESUS) OR THE BIBLE.

THE WEEK OF DANIEL 9:27 WE KNOW ITS 7 YRS

Heres the scripture 1 week = 7 yrs Genesis 29:27-29
27 Fulfil her week, and we will give thee this also for the service which thou shalt serve with me yet seven other years.
28 And Jacob did so, and fulfilled her week: and he gave him Rachel his daughter to wife also.
29 And Laban gave to Rachel his daughter Bilhah his handmaid to be her maid.

DANIEL 9:26-27
26 And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come (ROMANS IN AD 70) shall destroy the city and the sanctuary;(ROMANS DESTROYED THE 2ND TEMPLE) and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined.
27 And he( EU ROMAN, JEWISH DICTATOR) shall confirm the covenant with many for one week:( 7 YEARS) and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease,( 3 1/2 YRS) and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.

JOB 24:1-25 (WHAT NEW WORLD ORDER CONTROL FREAKS DO TO US)
1 Why, seeing times are not hidden from the Almighty, do they that know him not see his days?
2 Some remove the landmarks; they violently take away flocks, and feed thereof.
3 They drive away the ass of the fatherless, they take the widow's ox for a pledge.
4 They turn the needy out of the way: the poor of the earth hide themselves together.
5 Behold, as wild asses in the desert, go they forth to their work; rising betimes for a prey: the wilderness yieldeth food for them and for their children.
6 They reap every one his corn in the field: and they gather the vintage of the wicked.
7 They cause the naked to lodge without clothing, that they have no covering in the cold.
8 They are wet with the showers of the mountains, and embrace the rock for want of a shelter.
9 They pluck the fatherless from the breast, and take a pledge of the poor.
10 They cause him to go naked without clothing, and they take away the sheaf from the hungry;
11 Which make oil within their walls, and tread their winepresses, and suffer thirst.
12 Men groan from out of the city, and the soul of the wounded crieth out: yet God layeth not folly to them.
13 They are of those that rebel against the light; they know not the ways thereof, nor abide in the paths thereof.
14 The murderer rising with the light killeth the poor and needy, and in the night is as a thief.
15 The eye also of the adulterer waiteth for the twilight, saying, No eye shall see me: and disguiseth his face.
16 In the dark they dig through houses, which they had marked for themselves in the daytime: they know not the light.
17 For the morning is to them even as the shadow of death: if one know them, they are in the terrors of the shadow of death.
18 He is swift as the waters; their portion is cursed in the earth: he beholdeth not the way of the vineyards.
19 Drought and heat consume the snow waters: so doth the grave those which have sinned.
20 The womb shall forget him; the worm shall feed sweetly on him; he shall be no more remembered; and wickedness shall be broken as a tree.
21 He evil entreateth the barren that beareth not: and doeth not good to the widow.
22 He draweth also the mighty with his power: he riseth up, and no man is sure of life.
23 Though it be given him to be in safety, whereon he resteth; yet his eyes are upon their ways.
24 They are exalted for a little while, but are gone and brought low; they are taken out of the way as all other, and cut off as the tops of the ears of corn.
25 And if it be not so now, who will make me a liar, and make my speech nothing worth?

EPHESIANS 6:10-13
10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities,(DEMONIC ANGELS IN HIGH PLACES) against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.(SPIRTIUAL DEMONIC PERSONS)
13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

LUKE 4:5-7(BECAUSE SATAN OFFERS WORLD POWER, WORLD ORDERERS HAVE ACCEPTED SATANS GIFT)
5 And the devil, taking him (JESUS) up into an high mountain, shewed unto him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time.
6 And the devil said unto him, All this power will I give thee, and the glory of them: for that is delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I will I give it.
7 If thou therefore wilt worship me, all shall be thine.

DANIEL 7:23-25
23 Thus he said, The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth, which shall be diverse from all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces.
24 And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise: and another shall rise after them; and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings.
25 And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.

DANIEL 12:4,1
4 But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.
1 And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book.

REVELATION 13:1-3,7,8,12,16-18
1 And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.
2 And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority.
3 And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast.
7 And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.
8 And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.
12 And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
16 And he causeth all,(WORLD SOCIALISM) both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:
17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.

REVELATION 17:3,7,9-10,12,18
3 So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.
7 And the angel said unto me, Wherefore didst thou marvel? I will tell thee the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carrieth her, which hath the seven heads and ten horns.
9 And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth.
10 And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space.
12 And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast.
18 And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth.

We shall have World Government, whether or not we like it. The only question is whether World Government will be achieved by conquest or consent.James Paul Warburg appearing before the Senate on 7th February 1950

Like a famous WWII Belgian General,Paul Henry Spock said in 1957:We need no commission, we have already too many. What we need is a man who is great enough to be able to keep all the people in subjection to himself and to lift us out of the economic bog into which we threaten to sink. Send us such a man. Be he a god or a devil, we will accept him.And today, sadly, the world is indeed ready for such a man.

A FALSE PROPHET COMES FROM THE VATICAN ALSO AT THIS TIME.

REVELATION 13:11-18
11 And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth;(FALSE VATIAN POPE) and he had two horns like a lamb,(JESUS IS THE LAMB OF GOD) and he spake as a dragon.(HES SATANICALLY INSPIRED AND DEFECTS FROM THE CHRISTIAN FAITH)
12 And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
13 And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men,
14 And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.
15 And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.
16 And he(FALSE POPE) causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:(CHIP IMPLANT)
17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.(6-6-6) A NUMBER SYSTEM

REVELATION 17:1-18
1 And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters:
2 With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication.
3 So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.
4 And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication:
5 And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.
6 And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration.
7 And the angel said unto me, Wherefore didst thou marvel? I will tell thee the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carrieth her, which hath the seven heads and ten horns.
8 The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is.
9 And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth.
10 And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space.
11 And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition.
12 And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast.
13 These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast.
14 These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful.
15 And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.
16 And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire.
17 For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled.
18 And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth.

AMOS 3:3
3 Can two walk together, except they be agreed?

ROMANS 16:17
17 Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine (OF CHRIST)(AND THE BIBLE) which ye have learned; and avoid them.

2 CORINTHIANS 6:14-18
14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?
15 And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?
16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you,
18 And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.

JOHN 3:16
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

HEBREWS 1:8
8 But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom.

1 JOHN 2:22
22 Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son.

PHILLIPIANS 3:18
18 (For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ:

Archbishop Sheen

The False Prophet will have a religion without a cross. A religion without a world to come. A religion to destroy religions. There will be a counterfit church. Christ’s Church will be one. And the False Prophet will create the other. The false church will be wordly, ecumenical, and global. It will be a loose federation of churches. And religions forming some type of global association. A world parliment of churches. It will be emptied of all divine content and will be the mystical body of the antichrist. The mystical body on earth today will have its Judas Iscariot and he will be the false prophet.(FALSE VATICAN POPE FROM ROME) Satan will recruit him from among (CATHOLICS) our bishops.

Bill Muehlenberg's commentary on issues of the day…
Chrislam: Ten Reasons To Say No

If Christ is who he claims to be, and is the only way to reconciliation with God, then we can expect that plenty of counterfeits and deceptive substitutes will come along to derail us from Christ and his mission. Of course Jesus warned about exactly that: many deceivers, phonies and false Christs would come on the scene leading people astray.Thus for two thousand years now Christianity has faced all sorts of attacks and all sorts of attempts to subvert it from within or without. The challenges are never ending, and new ploys are continuously being utilised to render null and void the Christian faith.One of the newer and more insidious attempts is what is known as Chrislam. As the name implies, this is a deliberate blending or mingling of Christianity and Islam. While some gullible Christians might think this is a neat idea, it is in fact bad news. Indeed, here are ten reasons why no biblical Christian should even consider heading down this path.

One. The Bible repeatedly warns against any form of religious syncretism and the dangers it poses to God’s people. Chrislam is pure religious syncretism. No matter how much its proponents may go on about retaining one’s distinctives, at the end of the day this is all about playing down any such distinctions. It is a lowest-common denominator approach where the uniqueness of Christianity is especially watered down.

Whenever such religious syncretism took place in the Old Testament for example, Yahweh made his displeasure crystal clear. Indeed, the prophets warned time and again against such compromise and confusion. The New Testament also clearly warns against any such wholesale blending of Christian and non-Christian worldviews.

Two. The Bible frequently attests to the demonic basis or underpinning of idolatrous beliefs and non-Christian religions. Passages such as Deut. 32:16-17; Psalm 106: 34-41; Acts 26:17-18; 1 Cor. 10:19-21; 1 Thess. 1:9; 1 Tim. 4:1; 1 John. 4:1; Rev. 9:20 all make it clear that these are not just false religions, but are systems undergirded by deceiving spirits intent on leading God’s people away from the one true God. This is not something to be toying with.

Three. These are two fully incompatible belief systems. The differences between Christianity and Islam far outweigh any similarities. The very centre of the Christian message is denied outright by Muslims. Christianity is Christ and what he did on the cross.

Christianity teaches that God became man, lived among us, and then died on the cross for our sins and rose again. Islam utterly repudiates the notion that Jesus is God, or even God’s son, and directly condemns the idea that he died and rose again on the cross. When you rip the very heart of the Christian message out like this, you no longer have Christianity.

Four. As such, this attempt at interfaith dialogue simply compromises the Christian gospel. It waters it down so much that there is nothing recognisable left. When the very core teachings of Christianity are scuttled or downplayed simply in the interests of getting along or reducing tensions, then it is a counterproductive effort.

The early disciples spoke about – and relished in – the offence of the cross. They knew that their core message was an offensive one and an alienating one, but it was a message they nonetheless were compelled to preach. Better to lose some friends along the way than to compromise the truth of the gospel.

Five. These attempts at reconciliation and dialogue are almost always simply one-way traffic. While Christians are expected to abandon or neuter their hard and exclusive doctrines, there is rarely a similar effort made by Muslims to tone down or renounce some of their dangerous and/or offensive beliefs.

Why in the world any Christian would be willing to play such a one-sided game is beyond me. Why should we surrender on all our key beliefs and practices, while the corresponding response from the other side is just not forthcoming?

Six. All this really does is further legitimise and elevate Islam. It is simply another strategy to promote Islam in the West and in the process demean Christianity. Indeed, Muslims are on a mission, and any good Muslim wants to see all Westerners submit to Allah and the West come under sharia law.

Devout Muslims are on a mission to make this a reality. They are working overtime in the West to accomplish these goals. Yet most Christians are asleep at the wheel, ignorant of this assault on their faith, and unwilling to share their own faith just as actively as Muslims are.

Seven. There is no counterpart to this in Muslim-majority countries; indeed, the very attempt would be unheard of, not even dreamed of. Can you imagine a Christian leader being allowed to enter a mosque and proclaim the deity and saving work of Christ?

Would such an interfaith setup ever take place in downtown Mecca or in suburban Riyadh? Would a Christian pastor be allowed to freely proclaim the virtues of Christianity in Iran or Saudi Arabia or Syria? Somehow I just don’t think so.

Eight. Indeed, this lopsided endeavour really just further promotes dhimmitude. Christians are already second-class citizens in Muslim countries, and this will in effect make them dhimmis in their own countries. Muslims bent on subverting the West know exactly how all this plays into their hands.

Indeed, they see such endeavours – readily gobbled up by undiscerning Christians – as further signs of Western and Christian weakness. They know that gullible Christians will see this as an opportunity to be friends and achieve peace, but Muslims will see it as yet a further stepping stone on the way to complete Islamic subjugation of the infidel West.

Nine. What Christian churches desperately need to do is not allow in all this misinformation by Islamist propagandists, but start teaching the basics of the Christian faith. This may be the most theologically illiterate generation of Christians ever.

Most Christians are so starved of any sound biblical teaching that they would be sitting ducks for any Islamic indoctrination campaign waged in their churches. They instead need to be taught again the basic doctrines of Christianity so they can discern and withstand this and other assaults on their faith.

Ten. If people of different faiths want to discuss matters on an informal basis there is nothing wrong with that. They can do it in plenty of places. But a Christian church should never be used for such an endeavour. The Christian church is the place where the people of God are shepherded and discipled.

It is not the place where they should be exposed to false faiths and deceptive opponents of Christianity. No Muslim would allow this to take place on their own home turf, and Christians need to wise up and also be as careful and discerning. Letting wolves into God’s flock is a recipe for suicide, not for religious harmony.

Plenty of other reasons could be provided as to why we need to resist the attempts to implement Chrislam like the plague. It does absolutely nothing of value for the Christian church and the spread of the Christian gospel. But it does everything for promoting Islam, dismantling the free West, and rendering ineffective the Christian church.

JAMES 5:1-3
1 Go to now, ye rich men, weep and howl for your miseries that shall come upon you.
2 Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are motheaten.
3 Your gold and silver is cankered; and the rust of them shall be a witness against you, and shall eat your flesh as it were fire. Ye have heaped treasure together for the last days.

REVELATION 18:10,17,19
10 Standing afar off for the fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas that great city Babylon, that mighty city! for in one hour is thy judgment come.
17 For in one hour so great riches is come to nought. And every shipmaster, and all the company in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar off,
19 And they cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and wailing, saying, Alas, alas that great city, wherein were made rich all that had ships in the sea by reason of her costliness! for in one hour is she made desolate.

EZEKIEL 7:19
19 They shall cast their silver in the streets, and their gold shall be removed: their silver and their gold shall not be able to deliver them in the day of the wrath of the LORD: they shall not satisfy their souls, neither fill their bowels: because it is the stumblingblock of their iniquity.

6.8 quake in Philippines kills 13, buries homes
Associated PressBy JIM GOMEZ | Associated Press – FEB 6,12

MANILA, Philippines (AP) — A strong earthquake destroyed buildings and triggered landslides that buried dozens of houses, trapping residents, Monday in the central Philippines. At least 13 people were killed and 29 were missing.The 6.8-magnitude quake, in a narrow strait just off Negros Island, caused a landslide in Guihulngan, a city of about 180,000 people in Negros Oriental province. As many as 30 houses were buried and at least 29 people were missing, Mayor Ernesto Reyes said.Their situation is bad because if you are covered by landslide for one hour, two hours, how can you breathe? he said.But we just hope for the best, that there are still survivors.Rescuers were using picks and shovels to dig for survivors, he said.Reyes said at least 10 people were confirmed dead in his town, including students at a college and an elementary school and others in a market that collapsed. About 100 were injured.The quake, which hit at 11:49 a.m. (0349 GMT), triggered another landslide in the mountain village of Solongon in La Libertad town, also in Negros Oriental. An unknown number of people were trapped, said La Libertad police chief inspector Eric Arrol Besario.

We're now getting shovels and chain saws to start a rescue because there were people trapped inside. Some of them were yelling for help earlier,Besario told The Associated Press by phone. Three key bridges in the town cracked and were no longer passable, he said.Philippine seismologists briefly issued a tsunami alert for the central islands. Huge waves washed out five bamboo and wooden cottages at a beach resort in La Libertad, but there were no reports of injuries, said police Superintendent Ernesto Tagle. Elsewhere along the coast, people rushed out of schools, malls and offices.The epicenter was closest to Tayasan, a coastal town of about 32,000 people flanked by mountains in Negros Oriental province. Two died there, including a child when a concrete fence of a house collapsed, said Benito Ramos, head of the Office of Civil Defense.Another child was killed in a church when a wall collapsed during a funeral in Negros Oriental's Jimalalud town, Mayor Reynaldo Tuanda said.Tayasan police officer Alfred Vicente Silvosa told AP by phone that aftershocks were preventing people from returning to their homes.We are outside, at the town plaza. We cannot inspect buildings yet because it's dangerous, Silvosa said.I felt the building shaking, so I rushed out of the building. Our computers, shelves, plates, the cupboards, water dispenser all fell.A three-story office building also collapsed in La Libertad, but occupants escaped.Negros Oriental police chief Edward Carranza said the temblor damaged many houses in Guihulngan and he ordered his men to help displaced residents find shelter.Officials in some areas suspended work and canceled classes. Power and telecommunications were knocked out in several places.Carranza said police rushed out of his building when the quake struck.All my personnel ran out fearing our building would collapse, he said.Now it's shaking again,he said as an aftershock hit. My keychain is dancing.The U.S. Geological Survey said the quake was centered 44 miles (72 kilometers) north of Dumaguete city on Negros and hit at a depth of 29 miles (46 kilometers). The area is about 400 miles (650 kilometers) southeast of the capital, Manila.The Philippines is in the Pacific Ring of Fire where earthquakes and volcanic activity are common. A 7.7-magnitude quake killed nearly 2,000 people in Luzon in 1990.Associated Press writers Teresa Cerojano and Hrvoje Hranjski contributed to this report.

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.
12 And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights.
GOD PROMISED BY A RAINBOW-THE EARTH WOULD NEVER BE DESTROYED TOTALLY WITH A FLOOD AGAIN.BUT FLOODIING IS A SIGN OF JUDGEMENT.

Europe struggles under record cold snap
Associated PressBy JOVANA GEC | Associated Press – FEB 6,12

BELGRADE, Serbia (AP) — Overwhelmed by deep snow and harsh temperatures, some countries in Europe closed down schools and struggled to continue public transport and garbage pick-up Monday, as post-snow rains caused a dam to collapse in Bulgaria, flooding a village and killing at least four.Another four people were killed by floods in southern Bulgaria, and 10 people are missing, authorities said.Europeans across the continent were digging out from heavy snow after a week of bitter cold in which the number of dead — most of them homeless — continued to rise by the day. Temperatures have fallen as low as minus 33 Fahrenheit (minus 36 Celsius) in Ukraine, the hardest-hit country.The big freeze has caused traffic chaos throughout Europe, blocking roads, shutting down airports, and trapping thousands in remote mountain villages in the Balkans.But it has also offered opportunities for snowy fun: Ice skaters in the Netherlands were hopeful they could stage a race that hasn't happened in more than a decade; children in Rome and along the usually temperate Adriatic coast in Croatia frolicked in rare snow; and Bosnians in the capital, Sarajevo, spontaneously organized a winter Olympics in which they boarded down main streets and leapt out of windows into deep snow banks.The Serbian government late on Sunday declared an emergency situation, saying the intense snowfall has jeopardized normal functioning. Emergency officials said that 70,000 people were cut off by the heavy snow.I hope the emergency measures will lead to better functioning of the rescue efforts,said emergency official Goran Nikolic.

They included shutting down all primary schools and high schools for a week to save power and keep children safe. Thrilled, hundreds of kids filled the parks in the capital, Belgrade, sliding and making snow angels.Schools will also be closed in the Italian capital of Rome on Tuesday, as Italy copes with unusually heavy snow for the Mediterranean country. So far, ten deaths have been linked to winter weather, including two people who were crushed under a collapsed roof south of Rome, and a 91-year-old woman in the northeast port of Trieste who was knocked down by strong winds.In the north, rescuers had to pluck people from their homes, as piles of snow reached 3 meters (10 feet) in some areas. In Milan, Italy's fashion and financial capital, temperatures fell to minus 12 Celsius (10 Fahrenheit) on Monday, and the authorities opened a section of the city subway to shelter some 100 homeless people.

In Bosnia, hundreds of villages were stuck behind snowed-in roads and avalanches and authorities were using helicopters to evacuate the sick and deliver food. Authorities said they have had no contact for 72 hours with about 120 people in the central village of Zijemlja, where residents have no electricity or phone lines.There are several small hamlets with children and elderly people — and we are not able to help them,said Radovan Palavstra, mayor of the nearby city of East Mostar.Emergency official Milimir Doder said his teams must clear 20 kilometers (12 miles) of road before they can get to the village.In Sarajevo, thousands of people trudged to work on Monday, with only occasional buses braving the deep snow. Volunteers, meanwhile, cleared tram lines themselves.Authorities told residents to keep their trash on their balconies because no one would be able to pick it up before the city streets are cleared, which could take a few days.Young people in several neighborhoods boarded down snow-covered streets or cruised the main street towed behind cars on skis. Others competed with videos on YouTube to show the craziest jump into the snow from second floor apartments — most of them wearing only bathing suits. In one neighborhood, residents mocked local politicians by trying to build the ugliest snowman in their likenesses.In Poland, the Interior Ministry reported Monday that nine people died of hypothermia over the past 24 hours. Two elderly people were found frozen in Serbia and Bosnia, and Croatia reported 4 snow-related deaths.

Ukraine's Emergency Situation Ministry said Monday the country's death toll now stands at 135, including many homeless people. Some 2,000 have been hospitalized for frostbite or hypothermia, it said.Officials in Bulgaria have declared a state of emergency in much of the south. Civil defense chief Nikolai Nikolov said a 2.5-meter (8-foot) flood hit 700 houses in the village of Bisser, near the Greek border, after the dam on the Ivanovo reservoir collapsed.Bulgarian civil defense officials warned that two other bigger dams in the region, Ivaylovgrad and Studena, are on the brink of overflowing and urged people there to be ready for an evacuation.In the Netherlands, however, Europe's deep freeze means the country's almost mythical Eleven Cities Tour ice skating marathon could be staged later this month for the first time in 15 years, organizers said Monday.

The race, held along a 125-mile (200-kilometer) network of canals connecting 11 towns and cities in Friesland province, would cause a national frenzy, drawing thousands of participants and more than a million spectators. It was last held in 1997.Also in the Netherlands, a man tried to take advantage of the weather and toss a snowball with a package of marijuana in it over the wall of a prison. The snowball crumbled and the man was arrested in The Hague, police said Monday.The national weather service forecasts freezing temperatures at least through Friday, fueling hopes that the ice race would go ahead.Aida Cerkez in Sarajevo, Bosnia, Mike Corder in Amsterdam, Maria Danilova in Kiev, Ukraine, Veselin Toshkov in Sofia, Bulgaria, and Vanessa Gera and Frances D'Emilio in Rome contributed to this report.

Obama’s CFPB: A Soviet Era Bureaucracy Run by Federal Reserve Commissars Kurt Nimmo Infowars.com February 6, 2012

Not only was Obama’s appointment of Richard Cordray to the misnamed Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) unconstitutional, but the newly minted federal leviathan itself is in direct violation of Constitution, specifically the Tenth Amendment.In January, Obama thumbed his nose at Article 2, Section 2 of the Constitution. It states that the president shall nominate, and by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, shall appoint officers to the government.But as Ron Paul notes in the above video, the new agency – founded under the Federal Reserve dominated Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act – is itself an unconstitutional monster that will further degrade the financial health of the country.Cordray will act as a czar answerable not to the American people, but his masters at the Federal Reserve. Like an EU or Soviet era committee, the CFPB will be run by unelected commissars who will exercise extraordinary power. The agency is part of the Federal Reserve and its budget is not subject to congressional control or oversight.On January 4, the agency began to regulate nonbank services, including debt collection, consumer reporting, prepaid cards, debt relief services, consumer credit and money transmitting, check cashing, and related activities. It claims the authority to supervise any nonbank that it decides may pose a risk to consumers or engages in unfair, deceptive, or abusive practices.

In other words, the CFPB will micromanage a large sector of the economy and punish supposed violators not based on law, but rather supposition of harm and political priorities.The CFPB is another bankster scam protected under the cloak of the Federal Reserve. The financial crisis did not result from lack of regulation over consumer financial products and services. The CFPB is simply another power grab by the bankster cartel masquerading as consumer protection.Not surprisingly, the establishment media has completely ignored this story. It is their job to make sure you don’t find out what the CFPB is all about and demand it be stopped immediately.
If the government really wanted to protect consumers, it would dismantle the Federal Reserve system, reintroduce honest money and break up the criminal bankster cartel.

Senate To Vote On Bill That Could Kick TSA Out Of Airports-Federal agency would be forced to consider applications to remove TSA screeners Paul Joseph Watson Infowars.com Monday, February 6, 2012

Following House approval of the measure on Friday, the Senate is set to vote today on legislation that would allow U.S. airports to replace TSA workers with screeners from private companies, a move that could spell the beginning of the end for the highly unpopular federal agency’s role in airport security.The U.S. agency must allow airports to switch to private companies for screeners unless it can show the move wouldn’t be cost-effective and would be detrimental to security, according to the legislation, which if passed will go to President Barack Obama for his signature,reports Businessweek.They’ve been trying to force the door open for several years,Jeff Price, a Denver-based consultant who has written a textbook on aviation security, said of U.S. lawmakers.It reverses the burden of proof. It is definitely trying to checkmate the TSA.At the height of the anti-TSA drive in late 2010, which coincided with a national full body scanner opt out day, a growing number of airports such as Orlando Sanford International began to exercise their right to replace TSA workers with private screeners.The TSA soon put a stop to this in January 2011 by freezing the number of airports that could use private screeners, a figure that had climbed to 16. Orlando Sanford is one of the airports whose vetoed application to remove TSA screeners will have to be reconsidered under the new legislation.More private security companies are expected to start up if the legislation passes, providing the additional benefit of adding tens of thousands of private sector jobs to the economy.You’ll see companies make themselves known,said Price. They’ll make sure every airport operator knows the rules have changed.The TSA’s involvement in airport security has become highly unpopular over the last two years, with the federal agency mired in one controversy after another, from its agents constantly caught stealing from travelers, to its mistreatment of children and the elderly, to its habitual lies about the safety of naked body scanners.

In September last year, a petition on the White House website that called for abolishing the TSA received almost 32,000 signatures, forcing TSA chief John Pistole to issue a response.When Texas lawmakers attempted to pass a bill that would have outlawed the TSA’s advanced pat down procedures last year, the feds threatened to impose a no fly zone over the state and the measure was ultimately defeated.Congress recently gave the green light for $24 million dollars in extra funding for the TSA’s VIPR program, which was responsible for conducting 9,300 unannounced checkpoints last year alone.For anti-TSA activists, kicking the federal agency out of the nation’s airports will merely be the first step given that TSA workers have now been deployed to staff a network of internal checkpoints. The TSA is now conducting searches of Americans at train stations, bus depots, ferry ports, on highways and even at high school prom nights.The federal agency was also responsible for training hot dog sellers and other vendors to spot terrorists at the recent Super Bowl, a story that attracted yet more derision from the national media.

In latest vaccine marketing fraud, CDC says Gardasil shots should be routine for boys Jonathan Benson NaturalNews Monday, February 6, 2012

Every male between the ages of 11 and 21 should get a Gardasil vaccine for cervical cancer, and those between the ages of 13 and 21 should also get catch-up shots later down the road. This is only the opinion of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP), of course, which recently announced its final recommendations for the controversial vaccine.
CBS News reports that, as a followup to its earlier, but incomplete, recommendation back in the fall that boys be given HPV (human papillomavirus) vaccines in addition to girls, the CDC has now formalized its position in the journal Annals of Internal Medicine, as well as in the Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report. The agency is basically now recommending that all young men and women get the Gardasil vaccine.The CDC announcement comes just days after Canadian health officials made a similar announcement recommending that all boys between the ages of nine and 26 in that country be jabbed with Gardasil. Together, the two announcements could potentially double profits for the vaccine, that is if enough members of the public are foolish enough to actually comply with these new recommendations.

ACIP heavily influenced by Big Pharma

Many of ACIP’s members are nominated directly by the drug industry, and often have significant financial ties to vaccine manufacturers. So it is really no surprise that ACIP has made such egregious recommendations without considering the fact that Gardasil has been shown to be medically useless for its stated purpose, and a significant threat to health in many cases.Dr. Carol Baker, executive director of the Texas Children’s Center for Vaccine Awareness and Research, and huge proponent of vaccines, is head of ACIP, which made the recommendation. And Dr. Larry Pickering, executive secretary of ACIP and senior advisor to the director of the National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases at the CDC, also has an extensive history working for groups that promote vaccines.Thousands of young girls around the world have suffered debilitating, permanent neurological damage from getting the Gardasil series of shots. Many of them are now paralyzed as well, and suffer from chronic autoimmune disorders, extreme fatigue, and incapacitating muscle weakness, and at least 100 girls have died. If boys start getting the shot as well, you can expect a massive upswing in serious negative side effects and deaths among this segment of the population as well.The fact of the matter is that Gardasil is a dangerous, unproven vaccine that has no place in medicine. And yet health officials are all too eager to recommend it to practically everyone as if it was some type of miracle treatment.Sources for this article include:

Hale, Blair discuss Mideast peace in Jordan
AFPAFP – FEB 6,12

Jordan's Foreign Minister Nasser Judeh held talks on Monday with US envoy David Hale and Middle East peace Quartet envoy Tony Blair to seek a suitable climate for direct Israeli-Palestinian negotiations.The officials discussed the outcome of the recent Israeli-Palestinian exploratory meetings in Amman in order to find a suitable climate and environment to start direct talks, Jordan's state-run Petra news agency reported.Last month's five rounds of talks between Israeli and Palestinian negotiators, sponsored by the peacemaking Quartet, ended without a deal to continue discussions or return to direct negotiations.The Palestinians have accused Israel of failing to present proposals on borders and security called for by the Quartet, which groups the United Nations, United States, European Union and Russia.

Abbas to head Palestinian unity government Associated PressBy KARIN LAUB and MOHAMMED DARAGHMEH | Associated Press – FEB 6,12

DOHA, Qatar (AP) — The main Palestinian political rivals took a major step Monday toward healing their bitter rift, agreeing that Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas would head an interim unity government to prepare for general elections in the West Bank and Gaza.The agreement, brokered by Qatar, was signed by Abbas and Khaled Mashaal, chief of the Islamic militant Hamas.Both leaders said they are serious about moving forward.We promise our people to implement this agreement as soon as possible, Abbas said.We inform our people that we are serious about healing the wounds ... to reunite our people on the foundation of a political partnership, in order to devote our effort to resisting the (Israeli) occupation,added Mashaal.The two had reached a reconciliation deal last year to end more than four years of separate governments in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, but disagreement over who was to head an interim government had delayed implementation. Hamas, which runs Gaza, had strongly opposed Abbas' initial choice of Salam Fayyad, the head of his Palestinian Authority in the West Bank.Fayyad, who was appointed prime minister by Abbas in 2007 after Hamas' violent takeover of Gaza, would have to step down if a transitional government is formed.Fayyad warmly welcomed the Qatar agreement, said Palestinian Authority spokesman Ghassan Khatib.

It remains unclear whether the interim government would be acceptable to the West. The United States, Europe and Israel consider Hamas a terror organization, and said they would shun any government that includes members of an unreformed Hamas.Abbas has international backing and Monday's agreement said all Cabinet ministers would be politically independent technocrats.With the Palestinians moving toward unity, the fate of low-level border talks with Israel also remains uncertain. Abbas has said that the talks have run their course, as far as he is concerned, and that he would only resume them if Israel made a better offer on where to draw the border with a Palestinian state. It is not clear whether Israel would negotiate with Abbas as head of a Palestinian unity government.As part of reconciliation, elections were initially set for May. However, the delays in implementation make it unlikely the vote will be held on time.

Netanyahu to Abbas: You Can't Have it Both Ways-Israel's Prime Minister issued an ultimatum to officials in Ramallah that they must choose between Hamas and peace with Israel.By Gavriel Queenann First Publish: 2/6/2012, 4:45 PM

Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu on Monday responded to an agreement signed by Fatah and Hamas in Doha saying the Palestinian Authority can't have it both ways.The agreement ends an impasse between the rival factions over who will head the interim unity government and will also allow Hamas and its terror confederates to be inducted into the PLO.I would like to say a few words about what was signed in Doha, Netanyahu said at the weekly Likud faction meeting.Hamas is a terrorist organization that strives to destroy Israel, and which is supported by Iran.I have said many times in the past that the Palestinian Authority must choose between an alliance with Hamas and peace with Israel. Hamas and peace do not go together. Over the past few weeks, Israel and elements in the international community have made great efforts to advance the peace process.If Abu Mazen implements what has been signed in Doha, he will have chosen to abandon the way of peace and to join with Hamas, without Hamas having accepted the minimal conditions of the international community:

Not only does Hamas not recognize Israel and the [previously signed] agreements, it has not abandoned terrorism. It is continuing with terrorism and to arm itself in order to perpetrate even deadlier terrorism. I say to Abu Mazen: You cannot hold the stick by both ends. It is either peace with Hamas or peace with Israel; you cannot have it both ways.Hamas, regarded as a terror organization by Israel, the European Union, and United States has rejected conditions by the Quartet for Middle East Peace that it recognize Israel's right to exist, formally abandon terrorism and violence, and to uphold agreements signed by previous PA governments with Israel and any other entity.Hamas has also said that any agreement signed with Israel would only serve as a prelude to war.In December 2011 senior PLO officials adopted a strategy based on continuous efforts along with the international community to secure full recognition and full United Nations membership, pursuing internal reconciliation, and keeping up the popular resistance.PA officials insist Israel accept the indefensible pre-1967 lines as borders for a PA state, release all Arab terrorists from its prisons, and freeze construction in disputed territories for a second time before talks can begin.They have also adopted a unilateral track at the United Nations seeking recognition of the PA as a full-member state along the pre-1967 lines in contravention of the 1993 Oslo Accords which prohibits unilateral moves from either side.Israeli officials say the PA preconditions are a fait accompli to forestall talks and are trying to shift the blame onto Israel for their own refusal to come to the table. They also say Israel is ready to return to to the table without preconditions from either side anytime, anywhere.Many critics say the government's response to the winds blowing from Ramallah has been sluggish and that officials in Jerusalem have yet to absorb that the once vaunted 'Peace Process' is at an end.

42 He shall stretch forth his hand also upon the countries: and the land of Egypt shall not escape.
43 But he shall have power over the treasures of gold and of silver, and over all the precious things of Egypt: and the Libyans and the Ethiopians shall be at his steps.

Krauthammer: Leak indicates Israeli attack on Iran certain-The Daily CallerBy Jeff Poor - The Daily Caller | The Daily Caller – Sat, Feb 4, 2012

Last week in his Washington Post column, David Ignatius wrote that Israel was preparing to attack Iran to prevent it from being able to build a nuclear bomb.According to his Post opinion page colleague Charles Krauthammer, based on the source behind Ignatius’ claim it is likely an attack will occur.On this weekend’s broadcast of Inside Washington, Krauthammer explained his thought process.I think it’s fairly certain the Israelis are going to attack or you would not have had this leak, deliberately coming this week from secretary of Defense through David Ignatius of The [Washington] Post saying that he thinks there is a high likelihood Israel is going to attack, and then he went ahead and specified when. He said three months, April, May or June. And you don’t say that unless there is obviously indications from the Israelis that they are going to do this even if they get and they are getting a signal from the United States not to do it.Krauthammer doubted Israel was factoring what impact a strike against Iran might have on upcoming U.S. presidential election.

No, I think the calculation is what Ignatius reported as Panetta said: The Israelis think that the problem is that Iran is about to enter the zone of immunity. And that means the trigger is not the assumption that Iran now has the know-how to make a bomb. That is later down the road. What comes earlier is when Iran has put enough uranium in completely untouchable, protected sites, like the mountain outside of Qom where you cannot touch it, meaning that at that point, Iran has the wherewithal, the facilities, the material that it can build a bomb unmolested, and then it can never be attacked again. If Israel thinks it is approaching the point of immunity, it will attack.Krauthammer reminded viewers that the real threat of escalation would be if the rogue state attempted to block the Strait of Hormuz.The Iranian oil is already being cut off,The Europeans are not importing it … The Saudis have pledged [because the Saudis are determined to see the Iranian nuclear program wiped out -- they are very upset about this] a replacement for any Iranian oil. So if it’s just Iranian oil, it will have no effect.Question is will they close the Strait of Hormuz, which will shut off everybody’s oil, which as Evan [Thomas] indicates is suicidal if you are the Islamic Republic.The other question is will they attack the United States base in Bahrain, which is also suicidal, cause if you kill a single American, you’re going to bring America into the war and Europe into the war: The Europeans will join as well. So it will be an all out war.I think Evan is right. The rational Iranian response will be to attack Israel and nobody else.

Iran Finally Comes Clean with the World -- It Sponsors Terrorism Yahoo! Contributor Network By Dan McGinnis | Yahoo! Contributor Network – Sat, Feb 4, 2012

COMMENTARY | So, it's finally official: Iran is a state-sponsor of terrorism. The word came from the mouth of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei on Friday when he categorically announced Iran would sponsor anyone -- anywhere -- that would work against Israel.Khamenei also admitted to helping attack Israel through third parties, something Iran officially downplays or denies, the Associated Press reported. From now on, in any place, if any nation or any group confronts the Zionist regime, we will endorse and we will help. We have no fear expressing this, Khamenei told followers during morning prayers.Iran has the role of aggressor down pretty well. If it isn't spewing threats against the West on a daily basis, it is saber rattling in the Persian Gulf. Now its religious leader -- the ultimate voice on all matters in Iran -- has confirmed what Israel has been warning about for decades. It is words such as these that should inspire the civilized world to react and may, for all intents and purposes, be the final straw for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.I have always said the Israelis will act when they feel truly threatened. When - not if ­­-- that moment occurs, they will act will full effect. Israel has the capabilities and the will to act alone in handling what it considers to be an existential threat. U.S. Defense Secretary Leon Panetta said Friday that Israel has been making contingency plans for such an attack and any accompanying retaliation, Reuters reported.

I am certainly not a warmonger, but I am very much a realist when it comes to Iran. That country is not going to stop until it forces the hand of the U.S. or Israel or a combination of both. The inflammatory rhetoric doesn't cease and that can only lead to one ultimate resolution. For the past 30 years the tension has, at times, been palpable been the two nations, but never led to military confrontation.I'm not sure that is the case this time. The Western powers are not going to allow Iran to possess nuclear weapons capabilities. Since Iran continues researching and developing launch systems, the clock is ticking on how long the West will wait before launching a preemptive assault.

Iran threatens to hit any country used to attack its soil ReutersBy Parisa Hafezi | Reuters – FEB 6,12

TEHRAN (Reuters) - Iran will target any country used as a launchpad for attacks against its soil, the deputy Revolutionary Guards commander said, expanding Tehran's range of threats in an increasingly volatile stand-off with world powers over its nuclear ambitions.Last week, Iran's supreme clerical leader threatened reprisals for the West's new ban on Iranian oil exports and the U.S. defense secretary was quoted as saying Israel was likely to bomb Iran within months to stop it assembling nuclear weapons.Although broadened and sharpened financial sanctions have begun to inflict serious economic pain in Iran, its oil minister asserted Saturday it would make no nuclear retreat even if its crude oil exports ground to a halt.Iran says its nuclear program is for civilian energy purposes. But its recent shift of uranium enrichment to a mountain bunker possibly impervious to conventional bombing, and refusal to negotiate peaceful guarantees for the program or open up to U.N. nuclear inspectors, have thickened an atmosphere of brewing confrontation, raising fears for Gulf oil supplies.Any spot used by the enemy for hostile operations against Iran will be subjected to retaliatory aggression by our armed forces, Hossein Salami, deputy head of the elite Revolutionary Guards, told the semi-official Fars news agency Sunday.

The Guards began two days of military maneuvers in southern Iran Saturday in another show of force for Iran's adversaries associated with tensions over its disputed nuclear program.Sunday Israel appointed a new air force chief who last month, in his position as top military planner, warned publicly that Israel could not deal a knock-out blow to its enemies, including Iran, in any regional conflict.The United States and Israel, Iran's arch-enemies, have not ruled out a military strike on Tehran if diplomacy fails to resolve the nuclear stalemate. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu plans to visit Washington next month, his office said Sunday, and Israeli political sources said he is likely to meet U.S. President Barack Obama while there.Iran's Salami did not identify which countries he meant as possible hosts for military action against it.The six, U.S.-allied Arab states in the Gulf Cooperation Council, situated on the other side of the vital oil exporting waterway from Iran, have said they would not allow their territories to be used for attacks on the Islamic Republic.But analysts say that if Iran retaliated for an attack launched from outside the region by targeting U.S. facilities in Gulf Arab states, Washington might pressure the host nations to permit those bases to hit back, arguing they should have the right to defend themselves.The Gulf states that host U.S. military facilities are Qatar, Bahrain and Kuwait.

THREAT TO SHUT VITAL OIL CHANNEL

Iran has warned its response to any such strike will be painful,threatening to target Israel and U.S. bases in the Gulf, along with closing the Strait of Hormuz used by one third of the world's seaborne oil traffic.Betraying nervousness about possible blowback from any military strike on Iran, two of its neighbors - Qatar and Turkey - urged the West Sunday to make greater efforts to negotiate a solution to the nuclear row.Speaking at the annual Munich Security Conference attended by top world policymakers, Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu said an attack would be a disaster and the dispute over Iran's nuclear program could be ended very rapidly.If there is strong political will and mutual confidence being established, this issue could be resolved in a few days,he said.The technical disputes are not so big. The problem is mutual confidence and strong political will.He added: A military option will create a disaster in our region. So before that disaster, everybody must be serious in negotiations. We hope soon both sides will meet again but this time there will be a complete result.Turkey was the venue of the last talks between Western powers and Iran a year ago which ended in stalemate because participants could not even agree on an agenda.Qatari Deputy Foreign Minister Khalid Mohamed al-Attiyah said an attack is not a solution, and tightening the embargo on Iran will make the scenario worse.I believe that with our allies and friends in the West we should open a serious dialogue with the Iranians to get out of this dilemma. This is what we feel in our region.Tehran has warned several times it may seal off the Strait of Hormuz, throttling the supply of Gulf crude and gas, if attacked or if sanctions mean it cannot export its oil.A military strike on Iran and Iran's response, which might include an attack on the oilfields of No. 1 exporter Saudi Arabia, would send oil prices soaring, which could seriously harm the global economy

France calls for EU-Arab action group on Syria
04.02.12 @ 23:25 By Andrew Rettman

BRUSSELS - France has warned that China and Russia's UN veto will not stop the EU and its Arab allies from helping the opposition in Syria.French President Nicolas Sarkozy wrote in a communique on Saturday (4 February) night: France is not giving up. It is in consultations with its European and Arab partners to create a 'Friends of the Syrian People Group' with the aim of providing help from the international community for implementing the Arab League initiative.He added that China and Russia are effectively encouraging the Syrian regime to continue with its cruel and hopeless policy.French foreign minister Alain Juppe in remarks to France 2 TV indicated that the veto has marginalised the UN. This paralyses the international community,he said.China and Russia at a UN Security Council (UNSC) vote in New York earlier the same day blocked a resolution saying Syrian President Bashar Assad should stop military action and hold free elections under Arab League supervision.

All the other council members - including France, Germany, Portugal and the UK, which lobbied hard for its adoption over the past week - voted in favour.Russia - a long-term ally of Syria - has said the unrest is an outside plot fed with money and guns by Syria's enemies and that the opposition is working with Islamist radicals. It has also accused the West of trying to use the UN to justify another Libya-type operation.Its UN ambassador, Vitaly Churkin on Saturday said the resolution does not adequately reflect the realities prevailing in Syria and sends an unbalanced signal to the Syrian parties [that the UN is on the side of the opposition].China's UN ambassador, Li Baodong blamed the West for causing the UN split. To push through a vote when parties are still seriously divided over the issue will not help maintain the unity and authority of the Security Council or help resolve the issue,he said.
The vote came after news broke of a massacre in the town of Homs on Friday night.
Initial reports spoke of between 200 to 400 dead. Rami Abdulrahman, from the London-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, told press the army fired mortars at residential areas. A European Parliament deputy, Belgian liberal Louis Michel, said he had spoken with opposition leaders who put the death toll at over 400 and who told him that the Syrian army is marching through the streets in gas masks.

The UN fiasco is likely to have negative repercussions on EU-China and EU-Russia relations, with member states lining up to condemn their decision.British foreign minister William Hague said: Russia and China ... sided with the Syrian regime and its brutal suppression of the Syrian people in support of their own national interests - a reference to their ongoing arms sales to Assad.Sweden's Carl Bildt tweeted Russia and China are on the wrong side of history ... Munich talks failed after EU and US envoys held last-minute negotiations before the UN vote with Russian foreign minister Sergei Lavrov at a security conference in Munish, Germany.For his part, Ken Roth, the head of the US-based NGO Human Rights Watch, tweeted: In turning his back on the Syria people, was [Russian Prime Minister] Putin too scared of the precedent of the int'l community standing up to a repressive leader? Tens of thousands of people rallied in Moscow on Saturday to protest against Putin - the largest-ever challenge in his 13-year rule.

Hamas, Fatah Sign Reconciliation; Anger in Hamas-Mahmoud Abbas will head an interim government until elections are held. Hamas officials threaten to split the group. By Gil Ronen First Publish: 2/6/2012, 1:34 PM

Qatari mediation efforts between rival PLO groups Fatah and Hamas have succeeded and the twin terror organizations have signed a reconciliation agreement, it was reported Sunday. The impasse over the identity of the interim prime minister has been solved -- but there are already threats within Hamas to split the organization.
The Qatari suggestion, which was accepted by both parties, was that Palestinian Authority (PA) chairman Mahmoud Abbas would head the temporary transition government until elections are held at a date that has yet to be set.The transition government will be composed of independent technocrats.It will prepare the groundwork for elections for the presidency and for the legislative council. These had been delayed for procedural reasons.The ultra-leftist Geneva Initiative called the reconciliation a diplomatic opportunity that may never be repeated and called upon Israel to suggest a serious plan that will test whether the united Palestinian leadership seeks peace.Al Arabiya news network reported Sunday that senior official sin Hamas are threatening to split the terror group in two, because they do not accept Mahmoud Abbas as prime minister, even in a transitional government.

Syrian Army Renews Attack on Homs-At least 50 people were killed by Assad's forces since the morning. Damascus' Zabadani neighborhood also under fire.By Gil Ronen First Publish: 2/6/2012, 1:22 PM

Forces loyal to Syrian strongman Bashar Assad renewed their attack on the city of Homs Monday. At least 50 people have died since morning, according to reports from the city in western Syria.The Syrian opposition says Syrian Air Force combat helicopters have been firing missiles at targets in the city. Ground forces have been firing tank shells and mortar rounds at various locations in the city as well.
The main thrust of the military offensive is aimed at the Baba Amar neighborhood.

Simultaneously, the town of Zabadani on the outskirts of Damascus is being pummeled by Assad's forces. Arab television networks are broadcasting live coverage of the attacks on Homs and Zabadani.U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said Sunday that her country and its allies would be advancing meaningful sanctions against Syria despite a U.N. Security Council veto cast by Russia and China against such sanctions.

Merkel to support Sarkozy no matter what Today FEB 6,12 @ 17:36 By Honor Mahony

BRUSSELS - German Chancellor Angela Merkel has promised unfettered political support for her French counterpart Nicolas Sarkozy if he runs in the April presidential elections, remarks likely to further increase the spotlight on the continent's foremost political duo.

The two leaders, whose relationship has inspired almost as much interest as the eurozone crisis that feeds it, met in Paris on Monday (6 February) for one of their frequent bilateral summits to underline the strength of Franco-German ties even as the single currency's woes deepen.Speaking after their meeting, Merkel, who hails from the same centre-right political family as Sarkozy, said she would support the putative candidate in anyway I can ... no matter what he does.Her comment, which she immediately qualified by limiting to his actions as a presidential candidate, follow earlier commitments that she would make campaign appearances alongside Sarkozy.For his part, Sarkozy, who is trailing behind Socialist contender Francois Hollande in the polls, has tied his political colours to Berlin's mast.

Political risk

His fulsome praise for Madame Merkel and how well she is running Germany comes on top of his outright support for the fiscal discipline treaty, a document agreed by an EU summit last week enshrining Berlin's belt-tightening economic doctrine into national law.This is work of historic importance. Europe has never made such rapid structural decisions,he said.The treaty has been critcised in other quarters - including by French centre-left presidential candidate Francois Hollande - as being irrelevant to the problems at hand and likely to make worse the eurozone's stagnant economic growth.The relations between the two leaders - dubbed Merkozy - has evolved with the two-year long eurozone crisis. What started off ostensibly as a politically balanced set-up has altered to become a relationship dominated by the economically-stronger Germany.But the idea of a Franco-German engine running Europe helps both leaders. Sarkozy is lent more gravitas on the domestic front while the perception that Merkel is directing Europe is blunted if Paris is on board.Political commentators suggest that for the moment Merkel is popular in France but this could change, with French newspapers beginning to paint the Chancellor in an unflattering light.

Germany has become too much of an issue in the French presidential elections,Frank Baasner, head of the Franco-German Institute, told Germany's ZDF.Noting that she has always had a good image in France, Baasner added:It has to be seen with a question mark whether one can win an election in France standing alongside Merkel.Merkel, for her part, appeared to downplay her campaigning offer by pointing out that there are precedents for leaders from both countries helping one another out.

France leads on foreign policy

While Germany, with the eurozone's deepest pockets, is the undisputed leader when it comes to questions of economy, it continues to be France that takes the lead on major foreign policy issues.Sarkozy noted that he would be talking to Russian prime minister Dmitry Medvedev about Syria on behalf of both of us [France and Germany] on Monday, with France over the weekend calling for an EU-Arab action group on Syria whose government has been conducting a brutal crackdown on pro-democracy protesters.
This division of power between Paris and Berlin was alluded to recently by Alain Minc, an advisor and friend to Sarkozy.There are two negotiating tables in Europe: The first one is for economic issues, while military, strategic and diplomatic questions are discussed at the second one. Germany is the senior partner at the first table, but it doesn't even want to be present at the second one, as [the case of] Libya has shown. I think that results in a balanced relationship,he told Der Spiegel magasine.He also had some pointed to the change in the nature of the relationship between the calm scientist Merkel and hyperactive lawyer Sarkozy.I think he has learned to like her. At the beginning, you couldn't have imagined two more disparate people.He's learning to control himself. I think both of them have come a long way: from necessity to complicity, and from there to, as Nicolas Sarkozy tells me, real affection. You know, there are only three women in Sarkozy's life: Carla Bruni, his daughter and Angela Merkel.

Nerves fray as Greece extends bail-out talks
Today FEB 6,12 @ 09:13 By Valentina Pop

BRUSSELS - Greek talks on a vital €130 billion bail-out have gone into overtime as its government struggles to secure the backing of political parties for more spending cuts.Tear gas canister. Greek trade unions have called another general strike on Tuesday (Photo: Tilemahos Efthimiadis)The government had planned to wrap up the deal over the weekend, but Greek Prime Minister Lucas Papademos in a statement on Sunday (5 February) night said that only a partial accord is in place.
He noted that party chiefs have agreed to reduce public spending by 1.5 percent of the country's GDP, cut wages and labour costs and recapitalise their cash-strapped banks. The key outstanding issues are further wage cuts and a pensions freeze

The prime minister and political leaders will meet again tomorrow to complete the consultations on the content of the programme,Papademos' statement said.A spokesman for the Socialist Pasok party noted that political leaders have been given a new deadline of noon on Monday to clinch a deal, so that Papademos' government can present it to a teleconference or a snap meeting of eurozone finance officials.But as one EU official told this website,with Greece, no deadline is for sure.The ultimate deadline is 20 March, when Greece has to repay €14.5 billion worth of bonds.
If it does not get the new EU and International Monetary Fund (IMF) bail-out it cannot make the payment. But even if a deal is clinched today, it will take between four and six weeks to implement so-called private sector involvement (PSI).Apart from the new austerity measures, the EU and IMF have said there will be no bail-out unless private bondholders agree to write off more than 50 percent of their Greek debt.

In a sign of fraying nerves, Greek daily Kathimerini reports that Papedemos has threatened to resign if the talks fall apart.For his part, eurozone chief Jean-Claude Juncker told Der Spiegel there is a real risk of Greece going bust.If we were to establish that everything has gone wrong in Greece, there would be no new programme, and that would mean that in March they have to declare bankruptcy,he said.
Top banker Josef Ackermann - the head of both German financial giant Deutsche Bank and the International Institute of Finance, the body representing private bondholders in the PSI negotiations - warned that if Greece does go bust, the whole EU financial system will suffer.It's not only about Greece, it's about Europe,he said at a security conference in Munich, Germany on Saturday. He added that other troubled euro-countries would immediately be affected, with Portugal increasingly seen as the most vulnerable to the shock of a Greek default.Greek politicians now find themselves between a rock and a hard place - no political party wants to be associated with additional austerity measures ahead of upcoming elections in April.
Antonis Samaras - the leader of the conservative New Democracy party - has said the country is being asked for more austerity, which it is unable to bear.The IMF has itself admitted that the social costs are dangerously high.Greece is now in its fifth year of recession. Unemployment is at 20 percent and the number of homeless people on the - currently freezing - streets of Athens has increased by 25 percent since 2009. In protest at the planned cuts, the country's biggest trade unions have called for another 24-hour strike on Tuesday.Meanwhile, according to official figures, some €65 billion has been pulled out of Greek banks over the past two years, out of which around €16 billion was sent abroad - mainly to British and Swiss accounts.On the PSI side of the Greek deal, Germany fiercely opposes the European Central Bank or national governments taking losses on their Greek bonds along with the private sector.German Chancellor Angela Merkel and French President Nicolas Sarkozy are to hold talks in Paris on Monday in a meeting likely to focus on the Greek problem.

China bars its airlines from paying EU carbon tax
Associated PressBy JOE McDONALD | Associated Press – FEB 6,12

BEIJING (AP) — China announced Monday it will prohibit its airlines from paying European Union charges on carbon emissions, ratcheting up a global dispute over the cost of combatting climate change.The charges are aimed at curbing emissions of climate-changing gases but governments including China, the United States and Russia oppose them. The ratings agency Fitch warned in December the conflict could spiral into a global trade dispute.The Chinese air regulator said China's carriers are barred from paying the charges or other fees without government permission, the official Xinhua News Agency reported. It said Beijing will consider unspecified measures in response to protect Chinese companies.There was no indication there would be any immediate impact on flights between China and Europe or penalties for Chinese airlines. The charges took effect in January but money will not be collected until next year.The dispute highlights Beijing's complicated status in global climate efforts.China is the biggest source of climate-changing gases but as a developing country is exempt from Kyoto Protocol emission limits. Owners of Chinese power plants and factories have received billions of dollars from a European system that pays developing countries to curb emissions but Beijing has resisted binding limits.

Under the European system, airlines flying to or from Europe must obtain certificates for carbon dioxide emissions. They will get free credits to cover most flights this year but must buy or trade for credits to cover the rest.China objects to the EU's decision to impose the scheme on non-EU airlines, Xinhua quoted a statement by the Civil Aviation Administration of China as saying.The European Union ambassador to Beijing, Markus Ederer, defended the charges as consistent with Europe's efforts to be a green leader in curbing climate change and said they treat European and foreign carriers equally.Ederer said it was too early to consider questions such as whether Chinese carriers might be compelled to pay. He said EU regulations include a provision to exempt carriers from countries with equivalent measures to curb carbon emissions.We are ready to engage in a discussion on recognizing the equivalent measures which would then exempt those airlines of those countries from the necessary dues that would have to be paid, he said at a previously scheduled news conference on EU relations with China.Ederer said that with free credits taken into account, the added cost per passenger on a flight from Beijing to Brussels, the EU capital, would be 17.50 yuan or 1.90 euros ($2.70).I leave it to you to make a judgment on whether this is too much for saving the Earth, combating climate change and making headway together,he said.In Brussels, spokesman for the EU's climate agency, Isaac Valero-Ladron, said he was confident Chinese airlines would eventually comply and said the agency remained opened to talks with Chinese officials over their concerns.

We are telling them that this is our environmental legislation. It applies in Europe. If you want to do business in Europe you have to respect the law, Valero-Ladron said.

Environmentalists welcomed the European program, one of the most far-reaching measures adopted by any government to regulate greenhouse gas emissions. Although only 3 percent of total human-caused carbon emissions come from aircraft, aviation is the fastest-growing source of carbon pollution.U.S. airlines, supported by governments including China and India, filed a legal challenge to the charges but the EU's highest court upheld them in December.Beijing could have unusually strong leverage in a possible dispute because its state-owned airlines carry large numbers of Chinese and other Asian tourists to Europe. Any disruption would hurt Europe's travel industry when the continent is struggling with a debt crisis and high unemployment.The International Air Transport Association has criticized the charges as market distorting. It says the EU should negotiate through the International Civil Aviation Organization to reach a global agreement.IATA, which represents about 240 airlines that carry 84 percent of global air traffic, estimates the new rules will cost airlines up to 900 million euros ($1.2 billion) this year and rise to 2.8 billion euros in 2020.Ederer said the EU was open to discussing the issue through ICAO.Associated Press writer Raf Casert in Brussels contributed to this report.

USELESS UN-RUSSIA,CHINA VETO

Ban: Russia, China Veto 'Undermines' the United Nations-UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon slams Russia and China’s veto of a Security Council resolution on Syria.By Elad Benari First Publish: 2/5/2012, 6:01 AM

UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon slammed Russia and China’s veto of a Security Council resolution on the Syria crisis on Saturday, saying it undermines the United Nations.AFP quoted a statement by Ban in which he said he deeply regrets the failure to agree on a resolution condemning the deadly crackdown on protesters by President Bashar al-Assad.Ban said the veto undermines the role of the United Nations and the international community in this period when the Syrian authorities must hear a unified voice calling for an immediate end to its violence against the Syrian people.
He added, As Syria’s crisis deepens, bringing escalating violence and suffering to the Syrian people, the Security Council has lost an opportunity to take unified action that could help end this crisis and forge a peaceful future.The UN chief said the veto in the Security Council was a great disappointment to the people of Syria and the Middle East, and to all supporters of democracy and human rights.The resolution vetoed earlier by Russia and China demanded that Assad resign and was backed by the Arab League. The League later called on Arab countries to shut down their embassies and consulates in Syria, and remove Syrian ambassadors from their countries.

U.S. Ambassador to the UN Susan Rice said that Washington was disgusted by the vetoes.The Security Council has been held hostage for months by two member states, at least one of which is still supplying Syria with weapons,Rice said at the Council meeting after the vote. France's UN Ambassador Gerard Araud called the vetoes sad day for the UN Security Council, a sad day for democracy and a sad day for Syrians.The vetoes followed a particularly bloody night in Syria, as Assad-controlled forces opened fire on crowds in the city of Homs, killing over 400 people. Human rights groups said over the weekend that some 7,000 people had been killed in Syria since March 2011, when the uprising against Assad began.

Iran Conducting More Exercises in Straits of Hormuz-Iran is conducting yet more military exercises in the Straits of Hormuz By David Lev First Publish: 2/4/2012, 10:17 PM

Iran is conducting yet more military exercises in the Straits of Hormuz. Iranian officials said that the exercises were in response to a European boycott of Iranian oil, and that Iran would not submit to Western pressure against it. The new exercises, the official said, were aimed at preparing Iran for a battle against a hypothetical enemy.The Straits of Hormuz are considered an important strategic asset; 20% of the world's production of oil passes through it on oil tankers bound for the West, and Iran has threatened to close the Straits if its nuclear facilities are attacked.Iranian television said that the exercises would continue for a month. The report added that Iran had no plans to interfere with sea traffic through the Straits.Iran's Oil Minister Rostam Qassemi said that Tehran would strike back against European countries that were planning a boycott of Iranian oil, by cutting off the oild supply to Europe immediately. Iran would not be hurt by cutting off sales to Europe, Qassemi said.We've made the necessary planning to deal with that. We have friends in the world and will assist each other. We won't back down a single step under political pressures and won't give up our right position even if we can't sell a single barrel of oil.

In addition to the exercises, Iranian officials said Saturday that they had developed a new short-range missile designed to shoot down missiles fired at Iran from warships. The Zafar is a short-range anti-vessel radar-guided cruise missile, which can target small and medium-sized targets with high precision, officials said. The missile loses altitude after being launched, and then cruises at low altitude in order to be hidden from sight of the enemy, and in the final stage identifies the target at a low altitude and destroys the target,the official added.

Canadian imam to issue fatwa against honour killings-Amanda Stephenson, Postmedia News Published: Friday, February 03, 2012

CALGARY - A Calgary imam will take the bold step of issuing a fatwa - an official religious edict pronounced by a scholar of the Muslim faith - against honour killings and domestic abuse on Saturday.Imam Syed Soharwardy, who is head imam at the Al-Madinah Calgary Islamic Centre as well as the founder of the Islamic Supreme Council of Canada, will deliver the fatwa at a mosque in Mississauga, Ont. He will be backed by more than 30 imams and Muslim scholars from across North America who want to send a strong message to other members of their faith.Mohammad Shafia, front, his wife Tooba Mohammad Yahya, middle, and their son Hamed were convicted of murdering four female members of their family.Mohammad Shafia, front, his wife Tooba Mohammad Yahya, middle, and their son Hamed were convicted of murdering four female members of their family.

Within the Muslim community, there are a few clergy people - it's a very small number, no doubt about it - who misinterpret the Qur'an and say it is OK to beat a wife,Soharwardy said. That kind of mentality has to be changed, and has to be confronted.Soharwardy said that while he has been doing research into the issue of misogyny in Islam for a long time, it was the recent high-profile Shafia murder trial that prompted him to take action.Mohammad Shafia, his second wife Tooba Mohammad Yahya and the couple's eldest son, Hamed, were found guilty of first-degree murder earlier this week in Kingston, Ont. The prosecution's case was built around the premise that the Shafias murdered four of their relatives because they had stained the family's honour.Those people who justify these crimes in the name of Islam, they are dead wrong,Soharwardy said.There is no place for these crimes in our faith.Soharwardy said the fatwa will contain evidence of verses in the Qur'an where mistakes in translation from the original Arabic may have led some people to believe that Islam accepts violence against women.In some cases, we are coming back with a translation that conflicts with the rest of our understanding of the Qur'an, Soharwardy said. I don't think it's acceptable . . . The Prophet Mohammed never did these kinds of things, he never said you can hit your wife.By issuing the fatwa, Soharwardy said he and other scholars also hope to make non-Muslims understand that anti-female sentiment has no place in the true teachings of Islam.This is not the first time Soharwardy has taken a stance on a current event by issuing a formal edict. In 2010, the Calgary imam and other imams associated with the Islamic Supreme Council issued a fatwa condemning terrorist attacks by Muslim extremists.While not legally binding, fatwas carry substantial weight within Islam, particularly with followers of the Shia branch of the faith.
