20  And Isaac was forty years old (A BIBLE GENERATION NUMBER=1967 + 40=2007+) when he took Rebekah to wife, the daughter of Bethuel the Syrian of Padanaram, the sister to Laban the Syrian.
21  And Isaac intreated the LORD for his wife, because she was barren: and the LORD was intreated of him, and Rebekah his wife conceived.
22  And the children (2 NATIONS IN HER-ISRAEL-ARABS) struggled together within her; and she said, If it be so, why am I thus? And she went to enquire of the LORD.
23  And the LORD said unto her, Two nations are in thy womb, and two manner of people shall be separated from thy bowels;(ISRAEL AND THE ARABS) and the one people shall be stronger than the other people;(ISRAEL STRONGER THAN ARABS) and the elder shall serve the younger.(LITERALLY ISRAEL THE YOUNGER RULES (ISSAC)(JACOB-LATER NAME CHANGED TO ISRAEL) OVER THE OLDER ARABS (ISHMAEL)(ESAU)

16 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste.
17 Judgment also will I lay to the line, and righteousness to the plummet: and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding place.
18 And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it.
19 From the time that it goeth forth it shall take you: for morning by morning shall it pass over, by day and by night: and it shall be a vexation only to understand the report.

Bennett: We’ll bolt coalition if it agrees to 1967 lines

In speech at Tel Aviv think tank, senior minister sets his party’s terms for an agreement with the Palestinians

By Lazar Berman January 7, 2014, 7:26 pm 40-The times of Israel

Economy and Trade Minister Naftali Bennett, head of the Jewish Home party, rejected Tuesday afternoon the prospect of a peace deal based on the 1967 lines, and called a potential Palestinian state “a demographic disaster for Israel.”Bennett made his remarks on the Israeli-Palestinian peace process at the Tel Aviv-based Institute for National Security Studies.He indicated that his right-wing party would bolt the coalition if the talks progressed under certain conditions. “We will not sit in a government that, due to international pressure, endangers the future of our children and divides our capital,” he said.However, Bennett did not say that the Jewish Home would leave the government automatically over any agreement.Bennett’s remarks came a day after US Secretary of State John Kerry left the region having yet to win agreement from the sides on a framework for continued negotiations toward a permanent deal. Some reports suggest he will return as soon as next week.In his talk, Bennett laid out his party’s red lines for a peace deal. “We will never give up on a unified Jerusalem under Israeli — and only Israeli — sovereignty. We will not accept a Palestinian terror state, we will not accept an agreement based on the ’67 lines… We will not sit in a government that makes the easy and dangerous decisions.”“Enough with the games,” he continued. “We will no longer play word games: ’67 lines’ means the division of Jerusalem; giving up the Mount of Olives where Menachem Begin, Rav Kook, and Eliezer Ben-Yehuda are buried; and giving up the Western Wall, the Temple Mount, and the Old City.”Last week, Bennett reportedly held several one-on-one meetings with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to lay out red lines for a framework agreement with the Palestinians that, if breached, may prompt him to pull his party from the government, Channel 2 reported.Bennett on Tuesday also criticized international pressure on the Jewish state to come to an agreement with the Palestinians, and urged Israeli leaders to be willing to reject conditions forced on them by outside parties.“If we speak clearly,” he said, “they will listen to us. And if our friends push us to commit suicide, even if it comes from good intentions — then we will say, ‘No!’ We didn’t come here to be the world’s proving ground.”The minister’s statements seemed to be an implicit dig at Kerry’s latest push to get both sides to sign on to the framework agreement. Kerry is asking Netanyahu and Abbas to start making tough, highly political decisions in hopes of narrowing differences and thus to agree on a framework that will outline a final peace pact.Also Tuesday, Defense Minister Moshe Ya’alon denied that there was an actual  framework agreement under discussion.“We are not working on a framework agreement,” Ya’alon said during a visit to the IDF Central Command headquarters, “but on a framework for negotiations, for continuing the negotiations for a longer period.”“Our interest is certainly to continue negotiations, and continue to act to stabilize the situation, and our relationship with the Palestinians,” the defense minister continued.According to senior government officials cited by Channel 10 Friday, Netanyahu intends to put the framework agreement to a vote in the cabinet, where it may find stiff opposition. He told Likud colleagues on Monday, however, that there was no framework deal yet, and that it wouldn’t be binding anyway.

Pope engages in “parallel diplomacy” to get peace talks going and stop conflict in Syria

An Ethiopian Orthodox Christian in the Holy Land

The Pope has expressed his concern for persecuted faithful in the region. Francis is already much loved in Israel because of his great relationship with the Jewish community in Buenos Aires

Maurizio Molinari in New York Pope Francis’ visit to the Holy Land is meant to overlap with the massive efforts being made on the part of the Obama administration to ensure a permanent agreement is reached between Israel and Palestine. These are American former Middle East negotiator Aaron David Miller’s thoughts on the personal diplomatic efforts the Pope is apparently engaged in.“The Secretary of State John Kerry is currently busy putting down in writing things which both sides have in common,” Miller explained. “This means the next few months will be crucial in working out whether an agreement [on the remaining contentious issues] can be reached” over security, borders, refugees and Jerusalem. “The Pope cannot play any formal role in negotiations between presidents, prime ministers and foreign ministers but he can help make these a success for everyone through his words and gestures,” Miller added.But according to Rashid Ismail Khalidi, Professor of Modern Arab Studies at Columbia University, the fact that Washington’s diplomatic action coincides with the papal visit is a risky business for Francis: he risks being caught up in a tug-of-war between Palestinians who will put pressure on him to support their cause on the one hand and Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu who will trying to take advantage of the Pope’s visit for his own ends, on the other.According to Miller, the unconfirmed reports in recent days of clashes between Israel and Palestine over the Jordan Valley, are confirmation that the situation is becoming increasingly heated: “Until now no news was leaked about the negotiations; the fact that they have now means either one or both sides are not happy about something. According to Khalidi therefore, “the Pope’s visit is risky in terms of image as he has not yet clarified his position on the situation in the Middle East. Palestinians are not at all happy with US diplomacy, as in the best case scenario all it will do is to form the State of Palestine on 20% of the historical territories.”

Informed Israeli and Palestinian sources consider the possibility of the Pope commenting on the negotiations directly as “highly improbable” but according to both sources we could well see some personal diplomatic gestures from the Pope.Marina Ottaway, a Middle East analyst at the Woodrow Wilson Center, says these could be ecumenical gestures, as suggested by the Pope’s itinerary: he will be visiting Jerusalem, Bethlehem and Amman; in all of these cities  he will have the chance to address Jews, Christians as well as Muslims. But Khalidi pointed out another possibility: Francis may want to visit the Middle East in haste so as to address an issue that is very close to his heart, namely the rights of Christians in the region. He certainly cannot go to Iraq, Syria, Lebanon or Egypt to talk about this as his safety would be at risk.Whatever Francis may have planned for his trip to the Holy Land in May, Israel is awaiting his arrival with a great sense of curiosity given the close ties Bergoglio had with the Jewish community back when he was archbishop of Buenos Aires. Leaders of the Jewish community in the Argentinean capital described “visits to our synagogue” on very “important occasions” such as the lighting of the Menorah (the candelabrum that recalls the re-consecration of the Temple of Jerusalem which the Greeks had defiled) and the evening prayers that are said every year before Jewish New Year’s Eve.The title of the editorial in Israeli daily newspaper Haaretz, “Jews need the Pope”, shows how popular Francis is in Israel. The editorial describes Francis as better even than Israel’s chief rabbis, not just because of his personal determination and strategic vision but also because of his humour.In this context, Benjamin Netanyahu may try to take advantage of the run-up to the Pope-s visit to complete the bilateral agreement Israel and the Holy See reached in December 1993, by concluding an economic-financial agreement. But Sergio Minerbi, former Israeli diplomat and a veteran of Vatican-Israeli relations, is cautious: “Netanyahu will only meet the Pope for a few minutes in the Notre Dame hotel in Jerusalem. This building belongs to the Church, so there’s still a long way to go before real dialogue begins.” 

Liberman defends his population transfer plan

Foreign minister denounces as hypocrites critics of his proposal to relinquish Arab towns in Israel to future Palestinian state

By Stuart Winer January 8, 2014, 1:59 pm 1-The times of Israel

Foreign Minister Avigdor Liberman on Wednesday defended his promotion of a controversial plan to transfer jurisdiction of some Israeli Arab towns to a future Palestinian state by saying their residents have never wanted to part of the Jewish state. He further noted that those who oppose the idea didn’t object when Jews were relocated from the Gush Katif settlements in the Gaza Strip in 2005.In a statement posted on his Facebook page, Liberman heaped scorn on opponents of his plan, which calls for towns in the “triangle” region southeast of Haifa, including heavily populated Arab cities, to become part of a Palestinian state in any peace agreement in exchange for the Jewish settlement blocs of the West Bank. Liberman pointed to the alleged hypocrisy of the Arab residents of the cities in question, saying that in the past they had strongly identified with the Palestinian cause, rejecting the right of Israel to exist and aligning themselves with those seeking to destroy the Jewish state.“The Arabs of Wadi Ara have suddenly become adorers of Zion,” he wrote sarcastically. “In interviews with the residents of Umm al-Fahm on the various television stations we saw those same people who, instead of celebrating [Israel's] Independence Day, mark Nakba Day and wave black flags instead of Israeli flags, those same people who, in their rallies wave pictures of [Hezbollah head Hassan] Nasrallah and the flags of Hamas and Hezbollah — those people are now objecting to the intention that as part of a peace agreement that will include land and population transfers, they will be citizens of a Palestinian state.“All of a sudden, they are an integral part of the State of Israel, suddenly Herzl is their national hero, Hatikva is a hit, and MK Ahmad Tibi [who has come out against the plan] and his friends have a ‘yearning Jewish soul,’” Liberman continued in a reference to a phrase from Israel’s national anthem, Hatikva, that recalls Jewish longing for a return to Zion.The foreign minister also criticized Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas for his objections to the plan.“Abbas, who is so concerned about freeing the Israeli Arabs sitting in prison because of terror activities against Israel, is suddenly crying out in protest against the thought that they will become his citizens,” he said.Liberman denounced opposition to the plan, which has emanated both from the left and from within the coalition, and pointed to the movement’s support of a 2003 extra-governmental peace proposal spearheaded by former Israeli minister Yossi Beilin and former Palestinian Authority minister Yasser Abed Rabbo, which called for making East Jerusalem the capital of a Palestinian state.“And the bleeding hearts on the left and their ilk, who talk so much about how the Arabs of the triangle are not an object that can be moved from one jurisdiction to another (because there was no intent to move them physically) — they weren’t moved when in the Geneva Initiative Yossi Belin wanted to transfer the residents of East Jerusalem to Palestinian jurisdiction and to nullify their [Israeli] identity cards, and they didn’t blink when the residents of Sinai or Gush Katif were physically transferred and did not just have their jurisdiction transferred.”“There are many historical precedents for land and population swaps, and for the alteration of borders that enabled the creation of homogeneous states and the end of internal conflicts,” Liberman wrote. Invoking the memory of Theodor Herzl and his aspirations to create a Jewish state, he concluded, “Therefore there is no reason to think that the matter is not feasible. After all, we know that’s what they said about the Zionist dream, or in short, “If you will it, it is no dream.”President Shimon Peres on Wednesday rejected the idea of a population transfer as “impractical,” adding that ”Israel cannot take away its citizens’ citizenship simply because they’re Arab.”On Tuesday, Interior Minister Gideon Sa’ar expressed objection to Liberman’s proposal, saying that any long-term agreement must state that Israel’s Arab population remain in Israeli territory.“As interior minister, I would like to dwell on the concept of citizenship for a moment,” Sa’ar said during a visit to Sakhnin, an Arab city in the Lower Galilee region. “An Israeli citizen is not an object and not transferable as part of a framework political agreement.”

Redrawing Israel’s borders to exclude major Arab population centers that lie on the Israeli side of the Green Line has long been a major policy point for Liberman.At the beginning of January unnamed sources told Maariv that the “triangle” plan, involving some 300,000 Israeli Arabs living on land that would become part of a new Palestine, had come up during talks between Israel and US officials.In the past, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has rejected such an approach.Times of Israel staff contributed to this report.

Third Secret of Fátima is a “genuine document” says Portuguese professor

The statue of Our Lady of Fátima

A study by the palaeographer who attributes the text on the Third Secret to Sister Lucia de Jesus dos Santos will be published in the next few days

Andrea Tornielli vatican city The manuscript of the Third Secret of Fátima, which was published by John Paul II and Joseph Ratzinger in June 2000 is apparently a “genuine document” and was written by Sister Lucia de Jesus dos Santos, the eldest of the three shepherd children visited by a series of Marian apparitions who died in February 2005. This is according to Professor Maria José Azevedo Santos, a paleographer who lectures in the Literature faculty of Coimbra University. Mrs. Santos carried out a study on the seer’s manuscript which describes the scene of the “bishop dressed in white” who suffered martyrdom atop a mountain, along with many other Christians. John Paul Ii saw a connection between the Third Secret of Fátima and his assassination attempt on 13 May 1981.Upon completion of her study, Professor Santos gave an interview to the official newspaper of the Portuguese Marian sanctuary Voz da Fátima, which will be published on 13 January. The news agency of the Catholic Church in Portugal has released a preview of the interview. “The Church is certain that the document is original,” Professor Santos stated. “It is a genuine, true document, written by Sister Lucia.” Last September Professor Santos had the chance to carry out research at the Archive of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith. She says that the absence of Sister Santos’ signature does not “invalidate the authenticity of the document” as it is possible to compare the text of the Third Secret with other manuscripts by Sister Lucia. There is therefore scientific evidence that she is the author of the text.Controversies over the authenticity of the text which came to light in 2000 aside, the document’s most serious critics do not really doubt that the text was written by Sister Lucia but claim that there are clues which suggest there is a section from the text that is missing. According to the critics’ reconstruction – which the Vatican has repeatedly rejected – a part from the sheet of paper containing the description of the vision, there should be another one with the words which the Virgin Mary apparently addressed to the three shepherd children. This would help explain the meaning of the apparition itself.In June 2000, when the then cardinal Ratzinger spoke to journalists about the Third Secret, he said there was no “official explanation” for the apparition, even though John Paul II recognised himself as the “ bishop dressed in white” who was killed. When the Secretary of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, Tarcisio Bertone, acting on behalf of the Pope asked Sister Lucia to comment on this, she confirmed this interpretation.When Benedict XVI visited Portugal in 2010 he was more cautious when commenting on the subject, leaving open the possibility of the prophesy not yet being complete. Prophesy here is meant in the Biblical sense of the word and not in futuristic film terms.

The Real Secrets of Fatima

Joe Nickell-http://www.csicop.org/si/show/real_secrets_of_fatima/

Volume 33.6, November / December 2009

Among the intriguing mysteries of modern Catholicism are the “miracles” and “secrets” supposedly imparted by the Virgin Mary at Fatima, Portugal, in 1917 (Oliveira 1999). In addition to an allegedly miraculous “dance of the sun,” there were three major secrets, two of which were revealed at the time. The third and final one—kept in an envelope by the Vatican—was not made public until mid-2000, provoking much interest and controversy. I was involved in the media debate over the release of the third secret, appearing on a documentary for the History Channel series History’s Mysteries titled “Fatima: Secrets Unveiled” (which aired January 4, 2001) as well as being interviewed for newspaper articles (e.g., Valpy 2000; Barss 2000). Here is my investigative take on the entire Fatima phenomenon.

The Lady Appears

The reported visits of the Virgin Mary to Fatima occurred in a time of trouble. After the fall of the Portuguese monarchy in 1910, there came a wave of anti-clerical sentiment and persecution, followed by various revolutionary conflicts and Portugal’s involvement in World War I.On May 13, 1917, three shepherd children were tending their flock about two miles west of Fatima in a town near Ourém. The children were Lucia Santos, age ten, and her two cousins, nine-year-old Francisco Marto and his seven-year-old sister, Jacinta. A sudden flash of lightning sent the children fleeing down a slope, whereupon the two girls beheld the dazzling apparition of a beautiful lady, radiant in white light, standing among the holly-like leaves of a small holm oak.Lucia was the only one who talked with the figure, who promised to identify herself at the end of a six-month period, during which time the children were to return to the site on the thirteenth day of each month. The woman said that all three of them would go to heaven but that Francisco, who could not see her, would have to recite many rosaries. When she instructed Lucia to have Francisco say the rosary, the boy became able to see the apparition, but he was still unable to hear her speak. After she instructed the children to pray for an end to the war, the lady vanished into the sky.Even though the children had agreed that they should keep the event secret, once home, little Jacinta blurted out to her parents that she had shared in a vision of the Virgin Mary. News quickly spread throughout the town, and when the children revisited the site on June 13, they were accompanied by some fifty devout villagers. Kneeling in prayer at the oak, the children saw the woman glide down from heaven and take a position amid the oak’s foliage (Arvey 1990, 66; Rogo 1982, 221—223).Thus began a pattern that was repeated each month during the specified period, although the children were absent on August 13 (having been detained by secular authorities who disbelieved their tale and held them briefly for questioning in the public jail at Ourém). On July 13, the children claimed to have received a special revelation that the lady forbade them to disclose. The apparition remained invisible to the onlookers, but some reported seeing a little cloud rise from (or from behind) the tree, together with a movement of the tree’s branches “as if in going away the Lady’s dress had trailed over them” (Dacruz n.d.).
When the period ended on a stormy October 13, as many as seventy thousand people were gathered at the site anticipating the Virgin’s final visit, many anticipating a great miracle. Again, the figure appeared only to the children. Identifying herself as “the Lady of the Rosary,” she urged people to repent and to build a chapel at the site. After predicting an end to the war and giving the children certain undisclosed visions, the lady lifted her hands to the sky. Thereupon Lucia exclaimed, “The sun!” As everyone gazed upward to see that a silvery disc had emerged from behind the clouds, they experienced what is known in the terminology of Marian apparitions as a “sun miracle” (Arvey 1990, 69—71).

Miracle of the Sun

This Fatima “miracle” has been described in many very different ways. Some claimed that the sun spun pinwheel-like with colored streamers, while others maintained that it danced. One reported, “I saw clearly and distinctly a globe of light advancing from east to west, gliding slowly and majestically through the air.” To some, the sun seemed to be falling toward the spectators. Still others, before the “dance of the sun” occurred, saw white petals shower down and disintegrate before reaching the earth (Larue 1990, 195—196; Arvey 1990, 70—71; Rogo 1982, 227, 230—232).Precisely what happened at Fatima has been the subject of much controversy. Church authorities made inquiries, collected eyewitness testimony, and declared the events worthy of belief as a miracle (Zimdars-Swartz 1991, 90). However, people elsewhere in the world, viewing the very same sun, did not see the alleged gyrations; neither did astronomical observatories detect the sun deviating from the norm (which would have had a devastating effect on Earth!). Therefore, more tenable explanations for the reports include mass hysteria and local meteorological phenomena such as a sundog (a parhelion or “mock sun”).On the other hand, several eyewitnesses of the October 13, 1917, gathering at Fatima specifically stated they were looking “fixedly at the sun” or “tried to look straight at it” or otherwise made clear they were gazing directly at the actual sun (qtd. in Rogo 1982, 230, 231). If this is so, the “dancing sun” and other solar phenomena may have been due to optical effects resulting from temporary retinal distortion caused by staring at such an intense light or to the effect of darting the eyes to and fro to avoid fixed gazing (thus combining image, afterimage, and movement).Most likely, there was a combination of factors, including optical effects and meteorological phenomena, such as the sun being seen through thin clouds, causing it to appear as a silver disc. Other possibilities include an alteration in the density of the passing clouds, causing the sun’s image to alternately brighten and dim and so seem to advance and recede, and dust or moisture droplets in the atmosphere refracting the sunlight and thus imparting a variety of colors. The effects of suggestion were also likely involved, since devout spectators had come to the site fully expecting some miraculous event, had their gaze dramatically directed at the sun by the charismatic Lucia, and excitedly discussed and compared their perceptions in a way almost certain to foster psychological contagion (Nickell 1993, 176—181).Not surprisingly, perhaps, sun miracles have been reported at other Marian sites—at Lubbock, Texas, in 1989; Mother Cabrini Shrine near Denver, Colorado, in 1992; Conyers, Georgia, in the early to mid-1990s; and elsewhere, including Thiruvananthapuram, India, in 2008. Tragically, at the Colorado and India sites, many people suffered eye damage (solar retinopathy)—in some instances, possibly permanent damage (Nickell 1993, 196—200; Sebastian 2008).
At the Conyers site, the Georgia Skeptics group set up a telescope outfitted with a vision-protecting Mylar solar filter, and on one occasion I participated in the experiment. Becky Long, president of the organization, stated that more than two hundred people had viewed the sun through one of the solar filters and not a single person saw anything unusual (Long 1992, 3; see figure 1).

The Secrets

Those who believe in the Fatima “miracle” also cite certain predictions the apparition allegedly made to Lucia, one being that Jacinta and Francisco would soon die. Both did soon succumb to influenza: Francisco in 1919 and Jacinta the following year. However, Zimdars-Swartz observes, “much of what devotees today accept as the content of the apparition comes from four memoirs written by Lucia in the convent [where she later resided] between 1935 and 1941, many years after the series of experiences that constitute the apparition event” (Zimdars-Swartz 1991, 68). Indeed, Lucia recorded her first “prediction” of the children’s deaths in 1927—several years after the fact! As to the other predictions, they were supposedly part of three secrets that had been delivered to Lucia by the apparition on July 13, 1917 (Gruner 1997, 290—291). Lucia’s Third Memoir gave the first secret as a vision of hell. The second was a statement that World War I would end, “but if people do not cease offending God, a worse one will break out during the pontificate of Pius XI” (who was pope from 1922 to 1939). However, since the Third Memoir was penned in August 1941, the so-called predictions were actually written after the fact (Zimdars-Swartz 1991, 198—199).
Before considering the important third secret of Fatima, and to fully comprehend the entire Fatima experience, we must look more closely at its central figure—not the Virgin Mary but Lucia de Jesus Santos. Born on March 22, 1907, to Antonio and Maria Rosa Santos, Lucia was the youngest of seven children. Five years younger than her next-oldest sibling, Lucia was a petted and spoiled child. Her sisters fostered in her a desire to be the center of attention by teaching her to dance and sing. At festivals, Lucia would stand on a crate to entertain an adoring crowd. Among her other talents was a gift for telling stories—fairy tales, biblical narratives, and saints’ legends—which made her popular with village children, as well as an ability to persuade others to do her bidding.Two years before the famous series of apparitions occurred at Fatima, eight-year-old Lucia and three girlfriends claimed to have seen apparitions of a snow-white figure on three occasions. Lucia’s mother called the experiences “childish nonsense.” The following year, Lucia, Francisco, and Jacinta were thrice visited by an “angel.”Lucia’s background is revealing. The seeds of her later visionary encounters were clearly contained in her childhood experiences and in her obviously fantasy-prone personality.1 Her charismatic ability to influence others drew little Francisco and Jacinta into the Fatima fantasy. As Zimdars-Swartz says of Lucia:It is clear that she played the leading role in the scenario of the apparition itself. All accounts agree that she was the only one of the three seers to interact with both her vision and with the crowd, carrying on conversations with both while her two cousins stood by silently. She has said, moreover, and probably not incorrectly, that Francisco and Jacinta had been accustomed to follow her directives before the apparition began, that they turned to her for guidance afterwards, and that it was she who convinced them that they had to be very careful in their experiences. (Zimdars-Swartz 1991, 68)
Further evidence that Lucia orchestrated the fantasy and manipulated the other children is provided by certain incidents. For example, when Jacinta first told the story, she stated that the Virgin had said many things that she was unable to recall but “which Lucia knows.” Lucia’s own mother was convinced that her precocious daughter was, in her words, “nothing but a fake who is leading half the world astray” (qtd. in Zimdars-Swartz 1991, 71, 86).

Third Secret Revealed

But there was a third secret of Fatima, possessed by the Vatican since 1957 and the subject of endless interest and speculation (Gruner 1997, 291). Certain Catholic notables have claimed to have the third secret, but their credibility is at issue because they seem to describe documents that were not first hand in their accounts. Nevertheless, they have hinted that the text predicted another world war and a great disaster of some kind (see Kramer 2006).In mid-2000, the Catholic Church revealed the third secret that was supposedly imparted to Lucia in 1917, which she set down as text in a 1944 letter. It was forwarded in 1957 to the Secret Archives of the Vatican’s Holy Office where it since reposed.On Monday, June 26, 2000, Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger—then prefect of church doctrine, now Pope Benedict XVI—spoke in a nationally televised news conference at the Vatican. Scrawled with a thick-nibbed pen in Portuguese—in wording Ratzinger characterized as “symbolic and not easy to decipher” (Valpy 2000)—Lucia had described seeing (at no specific time in the future) “an angel with a flaming sword in his left hand; flashing, it gave out flames that looked as though they would set the world on fire; but they died out in contact with the splendor that Our Lady radiated towards him from her right hand: pointing to the earth with his right hand, the angel cried out in a loud voice: ‘Penance, Penance, Penance!’”The visionary continued describing the appearance of a “bishop dressed in white,” who was “afflicted with pain and sorrow” as he made his way through a ruined city. Moreover, “he prayed for the souls of the corpses he met on his way; having reached the top of the mountain, on his knees at the foot of the big Cross he was killed by a group of soldiers who fired bullets and arrows at him, and in the same way there died one after another, the other bishops, priests, men and women Religious.”Now, many of the faithful have seen the text as having forecast the attempted assassination of Pope John Paul II, who was shot and wounded by a Turk in 1981 (Fleishman 2000). However, nearly every aspect of the vision—if indeed it was supposed to predict the assassination attempt on John Paul—was in error. It described not a pope but a bishop, who was not killed, who was not shot by soldiers, certainly not by arrows (an implausibility attributable to a child’s imagination); neither were all of the other bishops and priests killed.The vision only seems accurate if one engages in “retrofitting”—after-the-fact matching that fits statements to facts once they are known. This is the same process used to claim that the prognostications of Nostradamus (1503—1566), the French seer, accurately described future events (see Nickell 1989, 45—47). In the case of the “third secret,” the retrofitting involves counting the plausibly correct statements (e.g., the pope is “Bishop of Rome,” was dressed in white, and was struck by a would-be assassin’s bullet), while ignoring—or rationalizing—the many erroneous facts. Nevertheless, the Vatican statement claimed all three secrets represented authentic prophecy: “No one could have imagined all this” (qtd. in Valpy 2000).
In any event, many conspiracy-minded Catholics refuse to believe that the third secret has been fully revealed. They opine it may be “an indictment of most of the changes in the Church since Vatican II” (held 1962—1965) and would thus cause embarrassment to the current defenders of that council (Gruner 2006, 42). Meanwhile, the visionary who started it all, Lucia Santos—who became a Carmelite nun, Sister Lúcia of Jesus, and died on February 13, 2005—has been placed on the fast track to sainthood (“Lúcia” 2008). Certainly, the story will continue.

Bartholomew’s offensive against “localism” and “self-marginalisation”

Bartholomew I

The Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople has convoked the leaders of all Othodox Churches to prepare for the 2015 Synod

Gianni Valente rome The Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople, Bartholomew, has convoked a surprise meeting of the patriarchs and archbishops of all the Orthodox Churches at the Ecumenical Patriarchate in Istanbul this coming March. The purpose of the meeting is to discuss the guidelines and timeframe for the Preparatory Commission of the Pan-Orthodox Synod which is scheduled to take place in 2015. Nat da Polis revealed this in an article published by AsiaNews, in which he explains the underlying attempt on the part of Patriarch Bartholomew to bring the Orthodox Churches out of their isolation. “Orthodox circles see this as an attempt to move beyond a self-marginalization born of a localist mentality that has characterized the Orthodox Churches in the modern era, partly because of a certain post- Ottoman filettism (nationalism),” Da Polis writes. The meeting is intended as an opportunity for Constantinople to remind all Orthodox Churches that they cannot face the emergencies presented by globalisation without common initiatives.

By speeding up preparations for the “Great and Holy Council”, Bartholomew aims to reaffirm his positions as first among equals, among the other Orthodox Patriarchs that is. For decades the Orthodox world has been desperately trying to form an ecclesial axis to deal with the problems that the Orthodox Churches face in today’s world. Backing Bartholomew is the Metropolitan of Pergamon, Ioannis Zizioulas, co-chairman of ecumenical dialogue between Catholics and Orthodox considered by many to be the greatest living Christian theologian. He has been warning against the risk of “introversion” in the Orthodox world for a long time. He believes Orthodox Churches need a large-scale synodal event like the Catholic Church’s Second Vatican Council in order to avoid withdrawing into ghettos and becoming self-marginalised. In his book Orthodoxy in the Modern World Zizioulas wrote that the greatest danger faced not just by Orthodoxy but by the whole Christian world, “is not atheism, secular power in general or its various enemies” but “any escape from the historical reality and the continuing search for identity exclusively in the past.” This is especially common among men of the Church who are overcome by a “narcissist self-satisfaction that only leads to sterile confrontations.”

The messages and gestures of the current Bishop of Rome seem to have had a domino effect, stimulating the Orthodox Churches to reflect on their situation. Patriarch Bartholomew immediately grasped the ecumenical possibilities that opened up with the arrival of the new Pope. His attendance at the inaugural mass for the start of Francis’ Petrine ministry and at next May’s meeting between the successors to the apostles Peter and Andrew in Jerusalem are signs of a journey that has only just begun and which promises progress on an unimaginable scale. But the Argentinean Pope’s new modus operandi is also influencing the Russian Orthodox Church. The sign of the cross and the kiss which Vladimir Putin and the Pope both offered to the icon of Our Lady of Tenderness when the Russian President visited the Vatican, left a deep imprint in the minds of the Russian Orthodox faithful. The leaders of the Russian orthodox Church, including Hilarion of Volokolamsk who was also received by Pope Francis, stressed that they wished to focus on engaging in dialogue over issues in which Catholicism and Orthodoxy share common ground such as the protection of moral values and the suffering of Christians in the Middle East, instead of the theological conflict between these Churches. At the end of December, the Holy Synod of the Russian Orthodox Church said “niet” once again to the Ravenna document produced by the mixed Orthodox-Catholic theological Commission. The text attempted to come up with a formula for the theological doctrine of primacy that was acceptable to the Orthodox Churches as well.

The relations established with Pope Francis are giving new impetus to the discussions between the Orthodox and Catholic Churches which were never concluded. But this could unearth further contradictions that lie at the heart of the Orthodox faith. The image Bergoglio has been giving of himself as a shepherd who forsakes himself and is full of apostolic fervour, has been well received by Orthodox faithful as well.  Inevitably, this leads one to draw comparisons with the Orthodox clergy, who in many cases indulge in a sense of self-satisfaction and see themselves as members of a privileged class. After the scandals over the road accidents caused by members of the clergy driving big SUVs, there is now huge controversy over the “gay lobby” which is allegedly active within the Moscow Patriarchate. The issue has been denounced by proto-deacon and blogger, Andrei Kuraev, and could take some unexpected turns.

Greece hoping for peaceful launch as EU presidency begins

Today @ 15:02-DEC 8,13-EUOBSERVER

http://euobserver.com/news/122654

By Benjamin Fox

BRUSSELS - The European Commission's top brass is set for a muted reception on Wednesday (8 January) as the EU executive gathers in Athens for the launch of Greece's six month presidency of the EU.
After more than four years of near constant crisis, recession, and a tough austerity programme enforced as part of a €240 billion bailout, public support for the EU is low.A Gallup poll published Wednesday showed that approval for EU leadership among Greek citizens is at 13 percent, down from 32 percent in 2010.
Wary of the prospect of public protests, Greek authorities have imposed an 18 hour ban on protests in the centre of Athens on Wednesday in a bid to ensure that the launch passes peacefully.On Wednesday morning the national parliament and government buildings were surrounded by baton wielding riot police.The presidency comes with Greece potentially at a turning point.The country that still best symbolises the eurozone's sovereign debt crisis expects to see a return to economic growth in 2014 after six years of recession that has wiped out more than 25 percent of the country's economic output.Greece is now running a healthy current account surplus. Meanwhile, it is getting closer to being able to return to finance itself on the markets. Interest rates on ten-year Greek bonds now stand at 8 percent compared with 13 percent this time last year.Prime minister Antonis Samaras says that Greece will continue its 'comeback' in 2014. The unemployment rate - currently the highest in the EU at 27 percent - will start to fall this year, he said.
But its recovery, both economic and political, is still perilously fragile. Greece's debt level stands at around 180 percent of GDP and most analysts believe that Athens will need either an extra loan or a debt write-off worth around €10 billion at some point over the next six months.According to finance minister Yannis Stournaras, the annual income of the average Greek worker has fallen by 35 percent.The governing coalition of centre-right and centre-left parties also holds a slim parliamentary majority and the awareness that public tolerance of further austerity measures is close to breaking point.Opinion polls put the leftist Syriza party fractionally ahead of the centre-right New Democracy with 22.5 percent and 20 percent respectively, while support for the neo-Nazi group Golden Dawn party stands at 11 percent, leaving them in third place.
Meanwhile, the once dominant socialist Pasok party is struggling on 5 percent, less than three years after it held a parliamentary majority.Syriza promises that it would tear up the Memorandum of Understanding agreed between the Greek government and its creditors and put in place a new 'National Programme' marked by public works and higher taxes on the wealthy.Aside from making further progress as its bailout package enters its second phase, completing the single resolution mechanism for banks will be the main legislative priority for the Greek presidency.Ministers agreed their position on new rules to wind up failing banks in the final week before Christmas, but negotiations with the European Parliament will start this week.

Russia's first WTO trade dispute targets EU duties

07.01.14 @ 08:46

By Benjamin Fox

BRUSSELS - Russia has taken aim at the EU, filing its first trade dispute to the World Trade Organisation (WTO) in protest against anti-dumping duties imposed by Brussels.In a statement on Monday (6 January), the Swiss-based WTO, which arbitrates on international trade, said that Moscow was seeking consultations with the EU over levies on Russian steel products and ammonium nitrate, which is mainly used in fertilisers.
Under WTO procedures, EU and Russian trade officials will have 60 days to try and settle their differences before further legal action is taken. The WTO has the power to impose either a change of policy or economic sanctions.The EU says the duties are in place because Russia is selling the goods below their production cost. In its statement, the WTO said that the complaint focuses on how the EU calculates the value of the goods and the level of tariff fees to slap onto them.The dispute is the first to be initiated by Russia since it joined the WTO in August 2012.However, Russia is seen by the trade body as one of the main culprits in putting up tariff barriers and other trade restrictions and is itself already subject to two investigations relating to a car recycling tax on foreign cars.In November, the WTO agreed with an EU request to set up an arbitration panel to decide whether the tax breaches international trade rules. For its part, Japan has also lodged a complaint against the tax which has raised more than €1.3 billion for the Kremlin's coffers.Russia imposed the tax in September 2012 shortly after agreeing to remove similar tariff barriers as part of its successful bid to join the trade body.The move also comes amid increasingly frosty relations between Brussels and Moscow.The European Commission is expected to release a list of formal anti-trust charges against Russian gas giant Gazprom over claims that it has overcharged a number of eastern European countries.The EU has also condemned Russia's threats of sanctions against Ukraine in the ongoing tug-of-war over the country's economic future which led to the collapse of a trade agreement between Kiev and Brussels.

Bennett: No to '67 Lines,' No to Splitting Jerusalem

Bennett slams veiled references to splitting Jerusalem, warns the world, ‘We’re not your experiment.’

By Maayana Miskin-First Publish: 1/7/2014, 7:56 PM-Israelnationalnews

Economy Minister Naftali Bennett-Flash 90

The term “1967 lines” has been used regarding talks between Israel and the Palestinian Authority, in reference to the PA claim of ownership to all land that was under Jordanian control between 1949 and 1967.
The words have been used to conceal the true weight of the concessions being demanded, Minister of Economy Naftali Bennett (Jewish Home) warned Tuesday, in a speech at the Institute for National Security Studies.“Friends, the games are over. We won’t play with words anymore: the ’67 lines’ means splitting Jerusalem, and giving up the Mount of Olives – where Menachem Begin, Rabbi Kook, and Eliezer Ben-Yehuda are buried – and giving up the Kotel, the Temple Mount and the Old City,” he declared.
“How will history remember a leader who agrees to give up Jerusalem? How will it remember the first leader in Jewish history who dares to do that? And what’s more, to do it voluntarily?” Bennett asked.“Is the prayer of Jews worldwide, ‘In Your mercy, return to Your city, Jerusalem’ a party slogan, which can be changed overnight?” he demanded.A concession like that may win Israel temporary goodwill from the international community, Bennett said, but it would come at a high price: “another round of attacks and terrorism, which we would come into weaker than before, and with no moral right to defend ourselves after having declared that what is ours – is not ours,” he warned.“These are the decisions that take real leadership,” he continued. “That we will never agree to give up Jerusalem, a united city under Israeli sovereignty, and only Israeli. We will not accept a terrorist Palestinian state, we will not accept an agreement based on the 67 lines.“We will not exchange territory as if we were doing cut-and-paste on some Word document on the computer. We will not agree to a border along Highway 6, meaning rockets on Highway 4.“We will not stay in a government that endangers our children’s future and divides our capital due to international pressure. We won’t sit in a government that makes the easy, and dangerous, decision,” he declared.Regarding international pressure on Israel, Bennett said, “We didn’t come here in order to be the world’s experiment… We will make decisions about ourselves by ourselves, for the simple reason that only we will pay the price… Are those who pressure us today going to be killed in our place tomorrow?”Israel should not fear standing up to international pressure argued Bennett, saying “We’ve had great leaders in Israel who knew how to say ‘no.’ We survived.” 

US ambassador: Framework draft to be presented soon

Dan Shapiro says interim proposal for Israeli-Palestinian accord will cover security, borders, Jerusalem and all other ‘core issues’

By AP and Times of Israel staff January 7, 2014, 3:42 pm 6

The US ambassador to Israel said Tuesday that a framework proposal on all issues at the heart of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict would be presented to both sides soon.Dan Shapiro told Israel Radio that the proposal would cover security arrangements, borders, Jerusalem and all the other “core issues.”He said it will be presented to the Israelis and the Palestinians in a few weeks’ time.US Secretary of State John Kerry has been visiting the region often since talks resumed last July, shuttling between Israel and Palestinian leaders to mediate talks.Kerry has been pushing for the outlines of a peace deal. He is trying to nudge Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu closer to a pact that would establish a Palestinian state alongside Israel.He left the region on Monday having failed to win agreement from the sides on a framework for continued negotiations for a permanent deal. Some reports suggest he will return as soon as next week.Netanyahu told his Likud Knesset faction Monday that “there is no American framework document yet,” and that even if it could be agreed upon, it would not be binding on the sides, Channel 2 reported. Netanyahu also assured the Likud MKs that he had not given in to American pressure for more flexible positions regarding the fate of Jerusalem and the Jordan Valley, and said he was only too aware of the consequences of dismantling settlements in the absence of a viable peace accord, the report said.Kerry has made 10 trips to the region this year, initially expressing confidence that a permanent peace accord, providing for a Palestinian state alongside Israel, could be wrapped up by the end of April. More recently, though, evidently realizing that this was a tall order, he has been pushing the less ambitious “framework” idea.Netanyahu on Monday, however, reportedly told the Likud that even the framework plan, which Kerry has not yet been able to finalize, would not be binding on the two sides. The prime minister also said there would be elements in the non-binding paper that he and his party colleagues wouldn’t like, and elements that the Palestinians wouldn’t like.The two sides have long been at odds over almost every aspect of the core issues involved in a two-state accord. Kerry has been reportedly pushing Netanyahu to agree to at least keep talking on the basis of a Palestinian state to be established along the pre-1967 lines, with land-swap adjustments, and urging Abbas to recognize Israel as a Jewish state.Beyond these points, the two sides are said to disagree over security arrangements, border demarcations, the fate of Jerusalem and Palestinian refugee demands under a permanent deal. There have also been disputes over who will be released in a final phase of prisoner releases by Israel of terror convicts in the coming months. And it is unclear whether the Palestinians are prepared to extend the current talks beyond their scheduled expiry date in late April.An official in Ramallah told Palestinian newspaper al-Ayyam that the meetings recently held between Kerry and the Palestinian leadership failed to reach an agreement on any issue.“We talked about everything, but without agreement on anything,” the official said in an article published Monday.According to the newspaper, the Palestinians presented their positions on all the issues to Kerry, and are expecting to be presented with the positions of the US secretary of state for the framework agreement.

US said to seek adding ‘Jewish state’ language to Arab Peace Initiative

John Kerry reportedly preparing to push idea at upcoming meeting with Arab League officials

The US is reportedly exploring the possibility of altering language in the 2002 Arab Peace Initiative to include recognition of Israel as a Jewish State should the country reach a peace deal with the Palestinians.According to a Monday report in Palestinian newspaper al-Ayyam, citing Western sources, the US negotiating team is investigating the possibility.The changed language, which would insert a key Israeli demand into the 2002 Saudi-drafted Arab Peace Initiative, would also include the stipulation that Israel’s Arab citizens not be affected by recognition of Israel as a Jewish state.The initiative’s current language calls for the Arab world to offer comprehensive peace with Israel in exchange for a full pullout from all territories it captured in the 1967 Mideast war.The Palestinian report comes a day after US Secretary of State John Kerry left the region after four days of intense talks, including several hours in Riyadh in which he said he gained Saudi backing for his peace push.Ramallah has not given permission for any changes to the Arab League initiative, according to al-Ayyam.Kerry is expected to meet in Paris soon with Arab League foreign ministers who sit on the monitoring committee of the Arab Peace Initiative, the paper reported, and may present the idea to them.

It is not clear when the meeting would take place.Kerry’s trip to the region was reportedly to push the sides to agree to a framework plan which would guide future discussions.The US diplomat met with Saudi leader King Abdullah on Sunday and said the king’s 2002 initiative “has been part of the framework that we’ve been piecing together — both in inspiration and substance.”The initiative, revolutionary when it was introduced, has been endorsed by the Arab League and, technically, remains in effect.“Saudi Arabia’s initiative holds out the prospect that if the parties could arrive at a peaceful resolution, you could instantaneously have peace between the 22 Arab nations and 35 Muslim nations, all of whom have said they will recognize Israel if peace is achieved,” Kerry said.“Imagine how that changes the dynamics of travel, of business, of education, of opportunity in this region, of stability. Imagine what peace could mean for trade and tourism, what it could mean for developing technology and talent, for job opportunities for the younger generation, for generations in all of these countries,” Kerry said.Israel, however, has conditioned any peace deal with the Palestinians on recognition of the country as a Jewish state, a demand the Palestinians have rejected.Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told his Likud Knesset faction Monday that “there is no American framework document yet,” and that even if it could be agreed, it would not be binding on the sides, Channel 2 reported. He also assured the Likud MKs that he had not given in to American pressure for more flexible positions regarding the fate of Jerusalem and the Jordan Valley, and said he was only too aware of the consequences of dismantling settlements in the absence of a viable peace accord, the report said.

Kerry has paid 10 trips to the region this year, initially expressing confidence that a permanent peace accord, providing for a Palestinian state alongside Israel, could be wrapped up by the end of April. More recently, though, evidently realizing that this was a tall order, he has been pushing the less ambitious “framework” idea.

Netanyahu on Monday, however, reportedly told the Likud that even the framework plan, which Kerry has not yet been able to finalize, would not be binding to the two sides. The prime minister also said there would be elements in the non-binding paper that he and his party colleagues wouldn’t like, and elements that the Palestinians wouldn’t like.The two sides are believed to be at odds over almost every aspect of the core issues involved in a two-state accord. Kerry has been reportedly pushing Netanyahu to agree to at least keep talking on the basis of a Palestinian state to be established along the pre-1967 lines, with land-swap adjustments, and urging Abbas to recognize Israel as a Jewish state.Beyond these points, the two sides are said to disagree over security arrangements, border demarcations, the fate of Jerusalem and Palestinian refugee demands under a permanent deal. There have also been disputes over who will be released in a final phase of prisoner releases by Israel of terror convicts in the coming months. And it is unclear whether the Palestinians are prepared to extend the current talks beyond their scheduled expiry date in late April.

A Palestinian official told al-Ayyam that the meetings recently held between Kerry and the Palestinian leadership failed to reach an agreement on any issue.“We talked about everything, but without agreement on anything,” the official said.According to the newspaper, the Palestinians presented their positions on all the issues to Kerry, and are expecting to be presented with the positions of the US secretary of state on the framework agreement.The Palestinian official added that when the Palestinian Authority speaks about East Jerusalem, it does not mean outlying villages such as Abu Dis or the Shuafat area, but rather the city itself. One of the ideas presented by Kerry during the talks on the formulation of the framework agreement is that Jerusalem would be united but the Palestinians would “have their capital within it.”

Unilateral Palestinian statehood — real threat or ‘big bluff’?

Pundits agree that PA action in the international arena drove Israel to negotiate; what they differ on is what’ll happen if talks break down

By Raphael Ahren January 7, 2014, 11:47 pm 1-The times of Israel

Notwithstanding the best intentions of US Secretary of State John Kerry, the current round of peace talks between Israel and the Palestinians may fail (shocking, we know). But what happens then? Well, the current Israeli government may be fine with the status quo — the emphatic absence of a Palestinian state — but Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas has vowed to resume steps to unilaterally advance the PA’s statehood bid, a move Jerusalem is extremely wary of.Yet Israeli experts disagree whether Israel really has something to worry about. Is it just a “big bluff” (as one international law scholar claimed), or would a unilateral Palestinian bid make it impossible for Israel to ever reach a peace agreement that takes its positions into consideration (as another academic argued)? To prevent, or at least defer, the unilateral Palestinians statehood campaign — that was one of the main reasons why Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, however grudgingly, agreed to resume direct peace talks with the Palestinians in July 2013. The PA’s commitment to refrain from unilateral steps during the course of the talks was a large factor in the Israeli government’s decision to sit down at the negotiating table — perhaps even more so than Kerry’s relentless pressure.Last week, after Israeli ministers advanced a bill to annex the Jordan Valley, Saeb Erekat, the PA’s chief negotiator, said that the proper response would be to “seek statehood recognition by the United Nations and other international bodies.” Abbas, however, has promised to remain at the table at least until the April deadline initially set for the talks. But if the current efforts break down without an agreement — and if the past has taught us anything, it’s that the next crisis of faith is generally merely a matter of time — the Palestinians have made it clear that they won’t hesitate to turn to the international community.“At the end of the day, these negotiations won’t succeed, and Abu Mazen [Abbas] has a strong card in his hand: an appeal to the UN institutions,” said Ahmed Tibi, an Israeli MK who once served as adviser to Yasser Arafat and maintains close contacts with the Palestinian leadership, in an interview last week. “There are more than 60 agencies in the UN, and sooner or later he will turn to them. That will cause a diplomatic confrontation.”

Tibi is certainly not alone in his fear that the talks will collapse sooner or later. Indeed, most members of Israel’s government are exceedingly skeptical. And yet they agreed to start negotiating. They voted to release Palestinian prisoners and risked being blamed for the talks’ failure (including the threat of European Union sanctions), just because the Palestinians promised that they wouldn’t make further moves to be recognized as a state, at least not for for nine months.But what exactly is Israel afraid of? After all, “Palestine” is already recognized as a nonmember observer state by the United Nations; an overwhelming majority of 138 states supported that moved in November 2012 (nine countries opposed and 41 abstained). The chances of a “State of Palestine” being admitted as a full-fledged member of the UN prior to signing a peace treaty with Israel are minimal. The Americans have vetoed such efforts in the past and there are no indications they wouldn’t do it again.At least, so goes the conventional wisdom. One Israeli diplomatic official warned, however, that there are no guarantees that the US will forever continue to put the kibosh on a Palestinian application for full UN membership.“If Abbas gets all other members of the Security Council to agree, he might manage to drive the Americans into a corner,” the official said. “Washington might at some point become fed up with being the only country to oppose Palestinian statehood, and embarrassed and fearful of international isolation, they might accede to the Palestinians’ request.”‘Since the Palestinians joined UNESCO, they hijacked the organization’s agenda and now it’s all about bashing Israel. Their strategy is working’But even assuming that for the time being the Americans will continue to wield their veto power, the mere fact of Palestinian statehood coming to a vote again and again will slowly have an impact, an Israeli academic specializing in international law said. He recalled that the UN Security Council did not formally condemn South African apartheid because of the British veto, but eventually an international consensus emerged to demand the racist regime’s immediate demise. A similar scenario is plausible vis-à-vis Palestinian statehood, said the academic, who asked to remain unnamed because he didn’t want to be quoted comparing Israeli policies with apartheid.In the meantime, though, the Palestinians don’t need full UN membership to incriminate Israel on the international stage, an Israeli official said. As soon as they are admitted into the World Health Organization, Habitat or other UN programs, “they could have our arms twisted,” he said.Before the current round of peace talks commenced, the Palestinians were quite successful in their quest to achieve “incremental recognition,” he said. “Since they joined UNESCO, they hijacked the organization’s agenda and now it’s all about bashing Israel all the time,” added the official, who asked to remain anonymous so he could more freely discuss sensitive diplomatic issues. “All the Palestinians do all day is get yet another condemnation against Israel. And their strategy is working.”In 2011 UNESCO — the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization — admitted “Palestine” as a full member. Since then, Israeli and Palestinian officials have sparred about UNESCO’s positions and declarations vis-à-vis the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. During a debate at the 37th session of UNESCO’s World Heritage Committee in June, the Jordanian delegation, at the behest of the PA, submitted a resolution slamming Israel over its Jerusalem policies. UNESCO officials at first denied the resolution’s very existence but it was eventually adopted by a large majority.

Yet scarier, in the eyes of some Israelis, is the prospect of Palestinians turning to the ICC and suing Israeli leaders for war crimes or crimes against humanity. Joining the Hague-based court is a bit more complicated, because it would expose the PA itself to law suits, and it isn’t clear that membership in the ICC would be in its best interests, the Israeli official said. “We’re not really worried about being condemned by the ICC; they can threaten whatever they want,” he said. On the other hand, it would be “a major headache” if the Palestinians did try to drag Israelis in front of the court for alleged misdeeds.“Such a process would involve such besmearing and casting of allegations that would take us a long time to defuse,” the official said. “Not only is it a waste of time, but it’s a declaration of diplomatic war. And if it’s a war, you need to dedicate resources to fighting it, and doing this will prevent us from focusing on other measures to defuse the conflict.”

In 2009, Palestinian Justice Minister Ali Khashan asked the ICC to investigate Israel’s conduct in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip. The prosecutor’s office initially declined the request, noting that the Palestinian Authority was not a state and that consequently the court had no jurisdiction to launch an investigation into acts committed in the territories it claims. After “Palestine” attained nonmember state status at the UN in 2012, the prosecutor’s office released a brief statement saying that it “will consider the legal implications of this resolution.” It has yet to issue a new ruling on the matter.

‘A big bluff and an empty threat’

According to Alan Baker, a former legal adviser to the Israeli Foreign Ministry, the Palestinian threat of a unilateral statehood drive is absolutely nothing to be afraid of. “This is a big bluff; it’s just an empty threat,” he said. “So the Palestinians will go to the International Health Organization, the International Postal Union and the Civil Aviation Authority. So what? That won’t give them statehood. It won’t make a difference, because Israel is still sitting in Judea and Samaria [the West Bank], and any change can only come about as the result of a negotiation process.”And there is no cause to fear a Palestinian onslaught against Israel in international forums, averred Baker, a former Israeli ambassador to Canada, as such attacks have been going on for years. “There are 20 or so anti-Israel resolutions at the UN at any given moment, so how is this night different from any other night?” Palestinian attempts to influence the agendas of UN bodies actually did more damage to the credibility of those international organs than to Israel’s interests, he posited. Many diplomats and parliamentarians have told him, he said, that the international community is becoming “increasingly fed up” with Palestinians trying to appropriate UN organizations for their political purposes and, in the process, distracting those bodies from their actual jobs.Neither does the specter of an ICC trial against Israel faze Baker. “That’s a completely empty and utterly unrealistic threat,” he said. Even if the court’s prosecutor ruled that “Palestine” could file a complaint against Israeli leaders for war crimes, an investigation would have zero chances of succeeding because the Palestinians would need to prove that the alleged offenses took place on Palestinian sovereign territory. “But the Palestinians themselves agreed [in the 1993 Oslo Accords] that the final status of territories is subject to negotiations.”Likewise, Israel has nothing to fear from “Palestine” turning to the UN’s International Court of Justice, Baker said. It’s possible that it would be asked to write an advisory opinion on Israel’s actions in the West Bank – as it has in the past – but “there’s no guarantee that it wouldn’t be counterproductive to whoever is asking for it.”So if Israel has nothing to worry about, in terms of unilateral Palestinian steps toward statehood, why did Netanyahu let himself be pressured into entering peace talks? One senior cabinet minister told The Times of Israel that it was in Jerusalem’s interest to “buy time.” While the talks may ultimately amount to nothing, he suggested, nine months of diplomatic quiet were well worth the effort.Baker didn’t buy that argument, saying he failed to understand why the American and Israeli governments gave credence to Palestinian threats. “The damage was caused by Kerry, when he said if Israel doesn’t make concessions Israel would be under attack by international community — as if they aren’t already. The Palestinians are laughing all the way to the bank,” he said. “I’m flabbergasted at the naivete that exists within the US administration, but even more so in the Israel government.”The only possible reason for Jerusalem’s behavior was that Washington might have threatened not to veto a Palestinian attempt to get full UN membership, Baker surmised. “I wouldn’t put it past Kerry, for whom I have absolutely no respect, to make such a threat,” he said.‘How will IDF soldiers react when their superiors are being accused of war crimes and the like?’Amichai Cohen, a senior lecturer of international law at Ono Academic College, said that even if international courts are unlikely to condemn Israel, such a scenario wasn’t impossible. At the ICC, for instance, it is the chief prosecutor who makes these decisions based on his own criteria, and he might not take into consideration the views of Israeli experts and pundits. “When assessing a certain risk, you don’t only look at how low the chance is of a certain scenario coming true, but you also think about the damage that could be done in the unlikely case that it does come true,” he said.Less than the threat of censure, the mere idea of Israeli politicians and generals standing trial could inflict great damage on the state, both externally (in terms of reputation) and internally, Cohen continued. “How will IDF soldiers react when their superiors are being accused of war crimes and the like?” he asked. The very prospect of such a scenario does not necessarily mean that Jerusalem should feel pressured to make concessions; there is cause, however, to take the Palestinians’ threat into consideration, he said.Jerusalem currently does not recognize the Palestinian Authority as a state, he said, and much of the international community understands that a peace treaty will have to be signed between both sides, and that Israel has legitimate demands for any deal. But as soon as the world welcomes “Palestine” as a legitimate member in the family of nations — with or without Jerusalem’s blessings — Israeli claims and arguments against Palestinian statehood will not be heard anymore, Cohen predicted. “We haven’t arrived at that stage yet… but we’re getting there.”

Supreme Court defends private security in East Jerusalem

Israel’s highest court rebuffs argument that private guards funded by the Housing Ministry carry out unlawful policing

By Elhanan Miller January 7, 2014, 5:18 pm 0-The times of Israel

The Supreme Court on Tuesday indicated it would uphold government funding for private security companies guarding dozens of Jewish compounds in East Jerusalem, rebuffing an appeal by local Palestinian residents and the Association for Civil Rights in Israel.The Housing Ministry currently employs two private security companies to guard 70 Jewish compounds located within Arab neighborhoods in East Jerusalem at an annual cost of NIS 67 million ($19 million). According to ACRI, 370 security guards are tasked with guarding 2,500 Jewish residents in these neighborhoods.The outsourcing of security for Jewish compounds in East Jerusalem dates back to the early 1990s, when private contractors were employed to guard the home of then-housing minister Ariel Sharon in the Muslim Quarter of the Old City.Ongoing friction between the security guards and local Palestinian residents, sometimes escalating to armed violence, led a government-appointed committee in 2006 to recommend transferring security responsibility from the Housing Ministry to the police. The recommendation was initially adopted by the government but overturned four months later.

In its petition, ACRI argued that security in East Jerusalem should be placed solely in the hands of the police, claiming that armed private security companies unlawfully carry out policing duties such as neighborhood patrols. In September 2010, Silwan resident Samer Sarhan was shot dead by a security guard in a case still being debated in court.The state, acting as defendant in the case, argued on Tuesday that the prerogatives of the security companies do not amount to policing and are limited primarily to static defense of residential homes. An average of 140 violent incidents a month in East Jerusalem justify the existence of enhanced state-funded security, the state added, noting that guards are legally and professionally subordinate to the police.

Declining to discontinue the activity of the security companies, the three-judge panel headed by Chief Justice Asher Grunis proposed establishing an arbitration body within the Housing Ministry to deal with complaints against security guards on a case-by-case basis, a proposal ACRI seemed inclined to reject. Justice Grunis said that if ACRI refuses to accept the compromise proposal within 48 hours it is likely to lose the case.

Mazen Odeh, a 29-year-old resident of the Silwan neighborhood in East Jerusalem and one of the petitioners in the case, said he had little hope in the court ruling in favor of the Palestinians. In June 2010 Odeh was shot in the leg by guards protecting the Jewish compound of Beit Yonatan in Silwan. Never questioned by police, Odeh was nevertheless recognized by the National Insurance Institute as a terror victim.“The court is biased toward the settlers and their guards,” Odeh told The Times of Israel. “The state and the court are effectively telling the settlers: ‘Kill Arabs and we are with you, we will acquit you.”

Ex-DARPA Head Wants You to Swallow ID Microchips

Google executive also pushes e-tattoo that reads your mind
Paul Joseph Watson-Infowars.com-January 7, 2014

Former DARPA director and now Google executive Regina Dugan is pushing an edible “authentication microchip” along with an electronic tattoo that can read your mind. No this isn’t a movie script about a futuristic scientific dictatorship, it’s trendy and cool!

Dugan, who is Head of Advanced Technology at (Google-owned) Motorola, told an audience at the All Things D11 Conference that the company was working on a microchip inside a pill that users would swallow daily in order obtain the “superpower” of having their entire body act as a biological authentication system for cellphones, cars, doors and other devices.“This pill has a small chip inside of it with a switch,” said Dugan. “It also has what amounts to an inside out potato battery. When you swallow it, the acids in your stomach serve as the electrolyte and that powers it up. And the switch goes on and off and creates an 18 bit ECG wide signal in your body and essentially your entire body becomes your authentication token.”Dugan added that the chip had already been FDA approved and could be taken 30 times a day for someone’s entire life without effecting their health, a seemingly dubious claim.Would you swallow a Google microchip every day simply to access your cellphone? Privacy advocates will wince at the thought, especially given Dugan’s former role as head of DARPA, the Pentagon agency that many see as being at the top of the pyramid when it comes to the Big Brother technocracy.Indeed, when host Walt Mossberg asked Dugan, “Does Google now know everything I do and everywhere I go because let’s face it….you’re from Google,” she responded by laughing and saying Mossberg should just swallow the pill.In addition to the edible microchip, Motorola is also working on a wearable e-tattoo that could also read a user’s mind by detecting the unvocalized words in their throat.“It has been known for decades that when you speak to yourself in your inner voice, your brain still sends neural spike volleys to your vocal apparatus, in a similar fashion to when you actually speak aloud,” explains Extreme Tech’s John Hewitt, noting that the device could allow covert voice activation as well as being used to detect stress and emotion (because Big Brother cares about your feelings).During the D11 conference, Dugan predicted that if the e-tattoo was made to look cool with different artistic designs, young people would want to have it fused to their skin, “if only to piss off their parents.”The edible microchip and the wearable e-tattoo are prime examples of how transhumanism is being made “trendy” in an effort to convince the next generation to completely sacrifice whatever privacy they have left in the name of faux rebellion (which is actually cultural conformism) and convenience.

Report: Teacher Tells Student “Jesus Is Not Allowed in School”

Teacher trashes messages a first-grader brought to class referring to Christ, says non-profit group
Kit Daniels-Infowars.com-January 7, 2014

A school teacher told a first grader that “Jesus is not allowed in school” while tearing off messages reciting a religious legend that the student attached to candy canes he brought for his class, a non-profit group claims.

Even the mention of Jesus Christ, who is a noted teacher, will get students in trouble at this school. Credit: waitingfortheword via Flickr

Each candy cane that first grader Isaiah Martinez brought for his classmates came attached with the legend that a candy maker created candy canes to symbolize the life of Jesus Christ, which the teacher reportedly tore off of each cane and threw in the trash under the direction of the school principal.After telling Martinez that “Jesus is not allowed in school,” the teacher handed him back his candy canes without the messages attached.“Isaiah then nervously handed the candy canes to his classmates in fear that he was in trouble for trying to bring a little Christmas cheer and ‘good tidings’ to class,” the non-profit group Advocates for Faith & Freedom said in its press release.The non-profit group demanded that the school stop “officials from bullying and intimidating Christian and religiously-affiliated students.”“Advocates for Faith & Freedom has experienced a surge in phone calls from students and their parents across the country who are victims of religiously motivated bullying; not bullying by other students, but bullying by teachers and school officials,” Robert Tyler, the general counsel for the group, stated. “The pendulum has swung so far in the opposite direction that public schools are becoming a place of hostility toward Christian and other religiously-based worldviews.”“It’s time to push the pendulum back in the right direction where kids can experience true tolerance without religiously motivated hostility from their teachers and school officials.”More on this story as it develops.

A Berkeley nuclear engineering professor has dismissed a viral video which appears to show unusually high radiation readings on a beach in San Francisco, asserting it has no link to the ongoing Fukushima crisis in Japan.As we reported yesterday, a YouTube clip shows an individual taking radiation readings with a Geiger counter on a beach south of Pillar Point Harbor in San Mateo County. The readings show at least five times the normal background radiation level.Health officials investigated and confirmed the spike but said they were “befuddled” as to its cause, suggesting that “red-painted disposable eating utensils” may have been responsible.During an interview with news station KPIX, Berkeley Professor Edward Morse claimed that the video proved nothing.“Someone going around with a Geiger counter is likely to discover these great variations in levels from time to time,” said Morse, adding, “That’s absolutely no correlation with anything that happened in Fukushima.”The clip then shows Morse measuring “rocks” for radiation with a Geiger counter and receiving abnormally high readings.

Despite Morse’s dismissal, experts at the Institute for Cross-Disciplinary Physics and Complex Systems in Spain have concluded that the plume of radioactive cesium-137 released by the Fukushima disaster in 2011 will begin reaching U.S. coastal waters in early 2014.KPIX also spoke to Gene Herman of the Berkeley Fellowship of Unitarian Universalists, who said people should remain wary of the potential threat posed by radioactive Fukushima debris and toxic sea water.Whether the ongoing Fukushima crisis poses a genuine threat to Americans on the west coast or not, official denials that there is any problem count for very little since authorities habitually lie about public health crises in the name of preventing panic, an infamous example being the EPA’s post 9/11 assurance that the air at ground zero was safe to breathe, which led to at least 20,000 people suffering debilitating illnesses as well as many deaths.The continued duplicity of the Japanese government and TEPCO officials in lying about the true scale of the radiation release from Fukushima has also increased suspicions. In September it was confirmed that radiation readings around the power plant were 18 times higher than previously reported by TEPCO.

THE EARTH ITSELF DESTROYING PEOPLE WITH THE EARTH BECAUSE OF VIOLENCE LIKE THE BIBLE PREDICTED WOULD HAPPEN IN THE END OF THE AGE OF GRACE-NOT THE END OF THE WORLD-THE WORLD GOES ON FOREVER

KING JESUS IS COMING FOR US ANY TIME NOW. THE RAPTURE. BE PREPARED TO GO.

GENESIS 6:11-13
11 The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence.(WORLD TERRORISM,MURDERS)(HAMAS IN HEBREW IS VIOLENCE)
12 And God looked upon the earth, and, behold, it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth.
13 And God said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before me; for the earth is filled with violence (TERRORISM)(HAMAS) through them; and, behold, I will destroy them with the earth.

HOSEA 4:1-3
1 Hear the word of the LORD, ye children of Israel: for the LORD hath a controversy with the inhabitants of the land, because there is no truth, nor mercy, nor knowledge of God in the land.
2 By swearing, and lying, and killing, and stealing, and committing adultery, they break out, and blood toucheth blood.
3 Therefore shall the land mourn, and every one that dwelleth therein shall languish, with the beasts of the field, and with the fowls of heaven; yea, the fishes of the sea also shall be taken away.

NUMBERS 16:30-32
30  But if the LORD make a new thing, and the earth open her mouth, and swallow them up, with all that appertain unto them, and they go down quick into the pit; then ye shall understand that these men have provoked the LORD.
31  And it came to pass, as he had made an end of speaking all these words, that the ground clave asunder that was under them:
32  And the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up, and their houses, and all the men that appertained unto Korah, and all their goods.

NUMBERS 26:10
10  And the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up together with Korah, when that company died, what time the fire devoured two hundred and fifty men: and they became a sign.

ISAIAH 28:18-19
18  And it shall come to pass, that he who fleeth from the noise of the fear shall fall into the pit; and he that cometh up out of the midst of the pit shall be taken in the snare: for the windows from on high are open, and the foundations of the earth do shake.
19  The earth is utterly broken down, the earth is clean dissolved, the earth is moved exceedingly.

LUKE 21:11
11  And great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven.

AND WHY DOES THE BIBLE SAY THE EARTH WILL KILL PEOPLE WITH THE EARTH. BECAUSE OF ALL THE VIOLENCE AND TERRORISM.THATS WHY.THE BIBLE IS LITERALLY BEING FULFILLED BEFORE OUR EYES.AND OUR EYES ARE CLOSED AND OUR HEADS ARE IN THE SAND ABOUT IT.OR WE JUST DON'T WANNA BELIEVE A LOVING GOD WOULD EVER SEND JUDGEMENT ON SUCH PEACE LOVING PEOPLE THAT DISOBEY HIS 10 COMMANDMENTS.LETS WAKEY...WAKEY-AND COME TO REALITY.THE EARTH IS BEING JUDGED FOR HATING JESUS-HIS WORD THE BIBLE-ISRAEL AND TRUE CHRISTIANITY.

IT IS INTERESTING THAT LINDSEY GRAHAM SAID IN 5 OR 6 MONTHS.THE NUKE COULD BE SET OFF IN SOUTH CAROLINA.THIS WAS SEPTEMBER 3,13.AND A WAR AGAINST IRAN WOULD OCCUR.I WONDER NOW ALMOST EXACTLY 4 MONTHS LATER-DID THIS TROUBLE WITH LINDSEY GRAHAMS PLANE HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE MISSING NUKES TRANSFERED EXACTLY 4 MONTHS ALMOST TO THE VERY DAY GRAHAM MENTIONED IT.I DON'T THINK THIS PLANE EMERGENCY LANDING WAS AN ACCIDENT.AND I AM NOT DREAMING UP NO CONSPIRACY THEORY HERE.I JUST FIND THE TIMING INTERESTING.SINCE IRAN AND SYRIA HAS COOLED OFF IN THE NEWS. AND THE PEACE PROCESS IS GETTING ALL THE MEDIA ATTENTION NOW.IT WOULD BE A PERFECT TIME FOR A FALSE FLAG NUKE ATTACK IN SOUTH CAROLINA TO ATTACK AND PUT TROOPS BACK IN IRAQ AS WELL AS ATTACK IRAN.AND POSSIBLY SYRIA AS WELL FOR SOME KIND OF DISTRACTION.

Posted by

CNN Political Unit

(CNN) – A commuter flight carrying Sen. Lindsey Graham to Washington was forced to return to South Carolina on Monday where it made an emergency landing, the lawmaker tweeted.The South Carolina Republican tweeted the experience after ExpressJet Flight 5740 returned to Greenville-Spartanburg International Airport about 30 minutes after takeoff for Washington.The Federal Aviation Administration confirmed the incident, saying a cockpit indicator showed a possible problem with plane’s right engine.
Graham tweeted that the engine was making a “strange sound” before the pilot declared an emergency.
The plane landed safely at about 3 p.m. ET.Graham spokesman Kevin Bishop said the Senator sought a different flight to Washington for the first votes of the New Year.Graham tweeted:CNN's Mike Ahlers, Leslie Bentz and Dana Davidsen contributed to this report.

Sen Graham Warns of Nuke Strike After Missing Warheads Report

Senator warns South Carolina is nuclear bomb target following Infowars report on black ops nuke transfer

Alex Jones & Anthony Gucciardi-Infowars.com-September 5, 2013
Senator Lindsay Graham has warned South Carolinians about the threat of a ‘terrorist nuclear attack’ on the same day our exclusive high level military intel revealed to us that nuclear warheads were being shipped to South Carolina from a major Texas airforce base under an ‘off the record’ black ops transfer.Found in the CBS report entitled ‘Graham: Nukes In Hands Of Terrorists Could Result In Bomb Coming To Charleston Harbor’, the report details Graham’s warning that a lack of military action in Syria could result in a nuclear ‘bombing’ in Charleston, South Carolina — the very destination of the black ops nuclear transfer. The CBS report reads:

“He [Graham] says if there is no U.S. response [to Syria], Iran will not believe America’s resolve to block Iran from developing nuclear weapons. Graham also says those nuclear weapons in the hands of terrorists could result in a bomb coming to Charleston Harbor.”

Graham is quite literally saying that if we do not launch a war with Syria, South Carolina may be nuked. And this ultimately reeks of yet another false flag being orchestrated by the United States government in order to send us into war, or at the very least a threat. Except this time, we’re talking about nuclear weapons. Amazingly, we were the first to get intel on this from our credible and extremely high level military source, who told us the following:

“Dyess is beginning to move out nuclear war heads today. I got a tap from DERMO earlier. He said it was the first time they have been even acknowledged since being put there in the 80′s. No signature was required for transfer… There was no directive. He said that Dyess Commander was on site to give authority to release. No one knew where they were going really, but the truck driver said to take them to South Carolina and another pick up will take them from there.”

This was sent to us before the Graham report came out warning about the nuclear attack on South Carolina, and coincides exactly with what Graham is saying. I am deeply concerned by these findings, and ask everyone to spread the word on this information immediately. Whether or not Graham is receiving intel from higher ups and believes in a legitimate terror attack on the horizon is unknown, but the reality here is that we have intelligence that has linked the unsigned transfer of nuclear warheads to this exact location.
Here is the video report we did on Tuesday regarding the missing nuclear warheads:Now, we need answers.

The entire event is eerily similar to the unsigned nuke transfer that is now known as the ’2007 United States Air Force nuclear weapons incident’, in which nuclear warheads went ‘missing’ from Minot Air Force Base and Barksdale Air Force Base back in August of 2007. The Minot event, however, was major national news and was even covered by the mainstream media extensively. Disturbingly, however, numerous individuals from the base began dying like flies and committing suicide after the event — and that’s even when it was in the mainstream.Hopefully, this entire thing will amount to nothing and pass by without any form of ‘terror’ attack. Hopefully the attendee during the speech who told the US News publication that Graham’s speech was ‘absolute fear mongering’ is right. Unfortunately, the military source revealing this information is extremely accurate and is absolutely certain that a black ops nuclear transfer did indeed take place. And what’s more concerning is the fact that we have not heard from the source in quite some time.

We are risking our lives bringing you this report on the high level intel and connecting the dots here to what Lindsay is saying. You won’t hear about this in the mega media unless we force them to cover it, and it’s up to us to get this out there. For the first time, we may be able to utilize this high level intelligence to get answers and stop a potential attack.
