When Morrison became prime minister, he made

Palestinian cause, in a sign of the importance Australia places on the
bilateral relationship.Egyptian intelligence officials in Gaza for
resumption of ceasefire talks-Latest round comes after weekend violence,
reports of Hamas demanding Israel let in $15 million from Qatar every
month in exchange for calm-By TOI staff-NOV 1,18
Egyptian
intelligence officials arrived in the Gaza Strip on Tuesday for the
latest round of talks aimed at brokering a ceasefire between Israel and
Hamas, according to Arabic-language media outlets.The new round of talks
follows a reported demand by Hamas leaders on Saturday that Israel
permit the transfer to the Gaza-based terror group of $15 million in
cash from Qatar every month in order to prevent further escalation in
the Palestinian enclave.Israeli officials have roundly rejected the
demand, Hadashot TV news reported.In the document handed to Egyptian
officials, the group’s Gaza leader Yahya Sinwar said the organization
expects Israel to transfer the money by Thursday, the report
said.According to the news station, the demand for cash is intended to
circumvent the Israeli coordination and supervision mechanism that was
in place until now, according to which the Palestinian Authority would
pay Gaza worker salaries transparently.Tensions along the restive border
once again ramped up over the weekend, with heavy rocket fire on
Israeli communities in the south and retaliatory strikes from the IDF,
threatening to bring the sides back to the brink of war.Thirty-four
rockets were fired at Israel overnight and Saturday morning, according
to the IDF, 13 of which were intercepted by the Iron Dome anti-missile
system. Two of the rockets fell in Gaza and the rest landed in open
areas.Israel responded to the rocket fire by bombing some 80 Hamas and
PIJ targets across Gaza.On Sunday, Israel killed three Gazan teens in an
airstrike on what the military said was a group planting explosives
along the border. Palestinian Islamic Jihad, the same terror group that
took responsibility for the weekend rocket attacks, vowed to avenge
their deaths.Weekly large-scale riots by Gazans and clashes between
Palestinians and Israeli soldiers have become a mainstay along the
Strip’s security fence since March 30, as part of a Hamas-led effort
known as the “March of Return.”These demonstrations take place each
Friday and sometimes on other days, regularly sending massive amounts of
thick smoke into the Israeli communities nearby as Palestinians burn
tires along the border and send incendiary devices affixed to balloons
into Israel to spark fires.Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Monday
that while another large-scale military operation in the Strip might
prove unavoidable, it was in Israel’s interest to try to do everything
possible, including accepting mediation and assistance offered by the
international community, to prevent such a scenario.Defense Minister
Avigdor Liberman on Monday called for more forceful action in light of
the ongoing attacks from the coastal enclave.But a senior official,
speaking Monday on condition of anonymity, said that Israel will exhaust
every last chance to restore calm before launching large-scale military
action that may cost many lives.Agencies contributed to this report.
Trump
says he plans to scrap birthright citizenship for some children-US
president claims he can override, with an executive order,
Constitution’s granting of automatic citizenship to anyone born in the
country-By AFP-NOV 1,18
WASHINGTON — US President Donald
Trump plans to abolish the right to citizenship for anyone born in the
United States — guaranteed by the 14th Amendment of the US Constitution —
with an executive order, he said in an interview excerpt released
Tuesday.While Trump asserts that he can change the provision with such
an order, that is far from certain: there is a set process for modifying
the constitution, which does not include presidential decree.His
comments come shortly before a hotly contested midterm election in which
the president has sought to place the issue of immigration front and
center.“It was always told to me that you needed a constitutional
amendment. Guess what? You don’t,” Trump said in an interview with
Axios. “Now they’re saying I can do it just with an executive order.”The
president’s opposition to the constitutional provision centers
specifically on the fact that children born in the US to immigrant
parents — whether they are in the country legally or not — are
automatically citizens.“We’re the only country in the world where a
person comes in, has a baby and the person is essentially a citizen of
the United States for 85 years with all of those benefits. It’s
ridiculous. It’s ridiculous and it has to end,” he said.Trump said he
had spoken to legal counsel about it and that the change is in the
works.“It’s in the process, it’ll happen — with an executive order.”
Attacks
renew debate: Should US have domestic terrorism law?-Proponents say
legislation is needed in order to better track violence by radical
extremists; opponents worry it could infringe on civil liberties and
freedom of speech-By Eric Tucker and MICHAEL BALSAMO-TOI-NOV 1,18
WASHINGTON
(AP) — The package bombs sent to Democrats across the county and the
killings of Jews at a Pittsburgh synagogue may seem like clear-cut cases
of terrorism. But the suspects will almost certainly never face
terrorism charges.The reason: There’s no domestic terrorism law.Whether
there should be one is a matter of debate. On one hand, there’s the
belief that white supremacists who kill for ideology should get the same
terrorism label as ISIS supporters. On the other, there’s concern about
infringing on constitutional guarantees to protect free speech, no
matter how abhorrent.In the absence of domestic terrorism laws, the
Justice Department relies on other statutes to prosecute ideologically
motivated violence by people with no international ties. That makes it
hard to track how often extremists driven by religious, racial or
anti-government bias commit violence in the US. It also complicates
efforts to develop a universally-accepted domestic terror
definition.Mary McCord, a former top Justice Department official in the
Obama administration, favors a law that “puts domestic terrorism on the
same moral plain as international terrorism.”“Terrorism offenses are
done purposely to send a much broader message, and so having that be the
charged crime puts that label on that and says, ‘This is someone who
committed a terrorism act,'” she said.The discussion in some ways is
more about labels than consequences. Even without a specific law, the
Justice Department has other tools available — including explosives,
hate crime and firearm possession charges. The penalty can easily be
every bit as severe as in the international terrorism cases the Justice
Department routinely brings against people who align themselves with
foreign extremist groups and carry out violence in their names.Both
Cesar Sayoc, accused of sending more than a dozen explosive packages to
high-profile critics of US President Donald Trump, and Robert Bowers,
accused of killing 11 inside a Pittsburgh synagogue, could face decades
in prison. In the case of Bowers, charged in a 29-count complaint with
federal crimes including using a firearm to commit murder and
obstructing the free exercise of religion, prosecutors intend to seek
the death penalty. The same punishment was sought for Dylann Roof in the
2015 shooting at a black church in South Carolina.Prosecutors are
treating the synagogue shooting as a hate crime rather than domestic
terrorism. Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein told police officials
on Monday that the Justice Department is aggressively prosecuting hate
crimes, saying “The vile forces of bigotry and hatred will not
prevail.”Opponents of domestic terrorism laws say prosecutors already
have enough tools. They worry what would happen if law enforcement were
empowered to apply the same tools to a domestic investigation, like a
secret warrant to monitor communications, as they have for international
investigations. They also contend that increased powers could run afoul
of civil liberties protection and lead to groups being classified as
terror organizations just because the government didn’t like their
ideology.“You want to be really careful given the current political
context about who would be put on that list because you don’t want them
put on there for purely punitive reasons,” said Karen Greenberg,
director of Fordham University law school’s Center on National
Security.But advocates of a domestic terrorism law say without a
specific statute, cases that could all be charged under a single law are
instead brought under a hodgepodge of others and sometimes prosecuted
as state or local terrorism offenses, making it virtually impossible to
identify trends, and tally how many domestic terror acts occur in the
United States and how they’re handled by prosecutors.When an attack
occurs, “you have to find the criminal laws that may apply based upon
the specific facts that may apply,” said Joshua Zive, outside counsel to
the FBI Agents Association.“When it does that, you’ve then lost the
ability to kind of measure those prosecutions from a domestic terrorism
standpoint. They’ve been essentially spread to the wind based on what
the individual facts might be,” he said.The Justice Department,
acknowledging the homegrown extremism threat, appointed a domestic
terrorism counsel in 2015 to coordinate the work of US attorneys. But
though ideas for a broader statute have been kicked around, Zive said he
could not recall any “viable” legislative proposal.The federal code
includes a definition of domestic terrorism but has no penalties
associated with it. A proposal floated by the FBI association would
borrow the language of that definition — the use of violence for
political means to intimidate or coerce a government or civilian
population — and make it a crime no matter what type of weapon is
used.The Justice Department has historically reserved terrorism
prosecutions for cases involving foreign organizations.By comparison,
the US does not make it a crime to associate with organizations like the
Ku Klux Klan that have been involved in ideologically motivated
crimes.“The time is ripe for us to have a serious discussion about
whether we have all the tools we need to detect, prosecute and prevent
these sorts of acts,” Zive said.

recalls envoy to Iran over foiled attack plot-Tehran denies planning to
kill Iranian opposition figures in Scandinavian country, says
allegations part of an European conspiracy against it-By AFP-TOI-NOV
1,18
COPENHAGEN, Denmark — Denmark on Tuesday recalled
its ambassador to Iran after it accused Tehran of plotting a foiled
attack against three Iranians living in the Scandinavian country.“I have
decided to recall Denmark’s ambassador in Tehran for consultations…
Denmark can in no way accept that people with ties to Iran’s
intelligence service plot attacks against people in Denmark,” Danish
Foreign Minister Anders Samuelsen told reporters.The planned operation
was “totally unacceptable,” he said, adding he was consulting with
“partners and allies,” including the EU, about possible
sanctions.Earlier Tuesday, the head of Denmark’s intelligence service
PET, Finn Borch Andersen, said his agency believed the Iranian
intelligence service “was planning an attack in Denmark” against three
Iranians suspected of belonging to the Arab Struggle Movement for the
Liberation of Ahvaz.A Norwegian of Iranian origin was arrested on
October 21 and placed in custody, suspected of planning the attack and
spying for Iran.The suspect was detained in Sweden, according to the
Swedish security service Sapo.Iran has denied the Danish allegations,
with foreign ministry spokesman Bahram Ghasemi saying they were part of a
European conspiracy against Iran.In late September, Tehran accused
Denmark, the Netherlands, and Britain of “hosting several members of the
terrorist group” that Iran accuses of being responsible for an attack
in the mainly ethnic Arab city of Ahvaz in southwestern Iran.The
September 22 attack, in which five commandos opened fire on a military
parade, left 24 people dead.The Islamic State jihadist group and a
separatist Arab group claimed responsibility.‘Will stand up to Iran’“It
is totally unacceptable that Iran or any other foreign state plans
assassinations on Danish soil,” Danish Prime Minister Lars Lokke
Rasmussen wrote on Twitter.“Further actions against Iran will be
discussed in the EU.”In Oslo, where he was participating in a meeting of
Northern European leaders, Rasmussen met with British counterpart
Theresa May, whom he said expressed “support” for Denmark in the
matter.“In close collaboration with UK and other countries we will stand
up to Iran,” he added.I appreciate the support from my colleague
@Theresa_May today. In close collaboration with UK and other countries
we will stand up to Iran #dkpol pic.twitter.com/qfqFLf5tWP — Lars Løkke
Rasmussen (@larsloekke) October 30, 2018-US Secretary of State Mike
Pompeo said the US stood behind Denmark.“We congratulate the government
of Denmark on its arrest of an Iranian regime assassin. For nearly 40
years, Europe has been the target of Iran-sponsored terrorist attacks.
We call on our allies and partners to confront the full range of Iran’s
threats to peace and security,” he wrote on Twitter.Iran’s ambassador to
Copenhagen was summoned to the foreign ministry for an explanation on
Tuesday.PET’s announcement ended weeks of media speculation about why
Denmark shut down bridges to Sweden and ferries for several hours on
September 28 in a massive manhunt that mobilized hundreds of police and
the military.The shutdown was aimed at foiling the Iranian operation,
PET acknowledged on Tuesday.
Saudi ties to US colleges come
under mounting scrutiny-Federal data shows that at least $354 million
from the Riyadh government or institutions it controls has flowed to 37
American schools since 2011-By Collin Binkley and CHAD DAY-TOI-NOV 1,18
BOSTON
(AP) — US colleges and universities have received more than $350
million from the Saudi government this decade, yet some are rethinking
their arrangements in the wake of the killing of a journalist that has
ignited a global uproar against the oil-rich nation.The Associated Press
analyzed federal data and found that at least $354 million from the
Saudi government or institutions it controls has flowed to 37 American
schools since 2011. Much of the money was provided through a scholarship
program that covers tuition for Saudis studying in the US, but at least
$62 million came through contracts or gifts from the kingdom’s
nationally owned companies and research institutes, the AP found.Those
benefiting the most from Saudi contracts include Northwestern
University, which has received $14 million from a top Saudi research
center since 2011, and the University of California, Los Angeles, which
accepted $6 million from the same institute, known as the King Abdulaziz
City for Science and Technology.Meanwhile, Saudi Arabia’s national oil
company, Saudi Aramco, has channeled $20 million to American
universities, including $9 million to Texas A&M University and $4
million to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. A national
chemical company known as SABIC steered another $8 million to US
schools.Although some of the contracts halted before last year,
questions surrounding Saudi writer Jamal Khashoggi’s death at the Saudi
Consulate in Istanbul have spurred some schools to reconsider current or
future deals.On October 22, MIT announced it will undertake a “swift,
thorough reassessment” of the institute’s partnerships with Saudi
Arabia, calling Khashoggi’s disappearance a “grave concern.” Richard
Lester, an associate provost, said faculty who work with the kingdom can
“make their own determinations as to the best path forward.”The
institute pairs with Saudi universities on numerous research projects
and has a long history working with Saudi Aramco. In March, the oil
company pledged $25 million to MIT for research in areas including
renewable energy and artificial intelligence.At Babson College near
Boston, which has received $2.5 million through a contract with the
SABIC chemical company, officials told the AP they are “monitoring
events closely and gathering input from our community regarding
potential paths forward.” The school’s deal provides leadership training
to Saudi business managers, and it joins several other research and
training partnerships between Babson and Saudi universities.But many
other schools have given no indications they’re reconsidering
ties.Officials at the University of California, Berkeley, said they are
not reviewing their Saudi funding, which includes a $6 million contract
to develop nanomaterials that can be used to support renewable energy.
Spokesman Roqua Montez said the kingdom’s support represents only a
small fraction of the contracts and grants that go to campus
researchers.Northwestern University refused to say whether any of its
funding is under review. Spokesman Bob Rowley said only that the “vast
majority” of the $14 million is for science grants but did not respond
to further questions.Others including Tufts University and the
University of Michigan would not answer questions about their Saudi
funding.The AP analysis examined data from the Education Department’s
Foreign Gifts and Contracts Report, which details foreign funding to any
US university that received $250,000 or more in a given year. The
self-reported data covers funding from 2011 through 2017.Besides money
directly from the Saudi government or entities controlled by it, US
universities received a combined $140 million from private Saudi
sources, universities and hospitals.Another $114 million could not be
accounted for because schools did not report the specific source of the
funding within Saudi Arabia. That included about $40 million at Johns
Hopkins University and $28 million at Harvard University. Officials at
Johns Hopkins and Harvard did not provide further details.The largest
sums of money came through a Saudi scholarship program that sends
thousands of students to US schools every year. George Washington
University received $73 million from the program, followed by George
Mason University, with $63 million.Those schools said they won’t refuse
the scholarship money because it would force them to reject the students
it covers.“Refusing payment would result in us denying an educational
opportunity to otherwise qualified students. This would run counter to
our mission of serving students,” Michael Sandler, a spokesman for
George Mason, said in a statement.The public school in Virginia hosts
about 250 Saudi students through the program each fall and spring
term.America’s ties with Saudi Arabia have come under intense scrutiny
in the wake of Khashoggi’s killing in Turkey, which US President Donald
Trump called “the worst cover-up ever.” Activists and some politicians
have called on the US and its industries to break with the nation, and
some have.Turkey is seeking the extradition of 18 Saudi suspects
detained in Saudi Arabia for the October 2 killing of Khashoggi, who had
written critically of Saudi Arabia’s crown prince in columns for The
Washington Post. Saudi Foreign Minister Adel al-Jubeir has said the
kingdom will try the perpetrators and bring them to justice after an
investigation is completed.Three Washington lobbying firms recently
canceled contracts hiring them to represent Saudi interests, and several
other businesses have suspended work in the kingdom, including those
owned by billionaire investor Richard Branson.More recently, the
pressure to break ties has expanded to college campuses, including at
the University of New Haven in Connecticut, which partners with a Saudi
police college to provide a degree in security studies in Riyadh.Despite
protests from a human rights group in New Haven, the university says it
plans to continue the program. In a statement, the school said its work
in the kingdom “is something we believe should be supported and
fostered.”The turmoil has rippled through campuses in other ways, too.
At Columbia University, for example, officials recently canceled a
planned lecture with Saudi artist Ahmed Mater. Columbia separately
received a $1.1 million grant from the Saudi agriculture ministry in
2016, records show, but officials said the school has no further funding
scheduled from the kingdom.In some ways, the ties between American
colleges and the kingdom were created to ease tensions between the
nations. The scholarship program was created in 2005 after leaders of
both countries met to lighten the diplomatic strain following the
September 11 attacks.Since then, the program has sent tens of thousands
of Saudis to study in the US. It reached its height in 2015, when more
than 120,000 Saudis came to study in the US, but numbers have fallen
sharply since 2016, when the kingdom scaled back the program amid a
budget shortfall tied to falling oil prices.
U.S. charges
Chinese intelligence officers for jet engine data hack-[Reuters]-By
Sarah N. Lynch and David Shepardson-YAHOONEWS-NOV 1,18
WASHINGTON
(Reuters) - Chinese intelligence officers conspired with hackers and
company insiders to break into private companies' computer systems and
steal information on a turbo fan engine used in commercial jetliners,
according to a U.S. indictment unsealed on Tuesday.The indictment said
at the time of the intrusions, a Chinese-state owned aerospace company
was working to develop a comparable engine for use in aircraft
manufactured in China and in other countries.The 10 people charged
conspired to steal sensitive data "that could be used by Chinese
entities to build the same or similar engine without incurring
substantial research and development expenses," the indictment released
by the U.S. Department of Justice said.It said more than a dozen
companies were targeted, but only Capstone Turbine Corp was identified
by name.Others were listed as a French aerospace manufacturer with an
office in Suzhou, China, a United Kingdom aerospace company and a
multinational conglomerate that produces commercial and consumer
products and aerospace systems.The indictment charges Zha Rong and Chai
Meng along with other co-conspirators who worked for the Jiangsu
Province Ministry of State Security, a unit of the foreign intelligence
arm of the Ministry of State Security.It says their efforts to steal
sensitive commercial aviation and other data took place from January
2010 through May 2015.This marks the third major corporate
espionage-related case involving Chinese intelligence officers brought
by the Justice Department since last month.In late September, a Chinese
national who had also enlisted in the U.S. Army Reserve was arrested in
Chicago for working for Chinese intelligence to recruit engineers and
scientists, including some who worked for U.S. defense contractors.Then
earlier in October, the Justice Department also announced it had
arrested a spy for China’s Ministry of State Security on charges of
economic espionage and attempting to steal trade secrets from several
U.S. aviation and aerospace companies.In that matter, the FBI said the
extradition of Chinese operative Xu Yanjun from Belgium was
unprecedented, and the case highlighted the Chinese government's direct
control over economic espionage in the United States.John Demers, the
head of the Justice Department's National Security Division, highlighted
the pattern of the three cases in a public statement Tuesday."This is
just the beginning," he said. "Together with our federal partners, we
will redouble our efforts to safeguard America’s ingenuity and
investment.”(Reporting by Sarah N. Lynch and David Shepardson; Editing

Republicans focus on defending U.S. Senate in campaign's last week-[Reuters]-YAHOONEWS-By Scott Malone-NOV 1,18
WASHINGTON
(Reuters) - Republican campaigns took a defensive approach a week
before elections to determine control of the U.S. Congress, with the
party spending more to try to hold on to previously secure House seats
and President Donald Trump preparing a six-day trip focused on Senate
races.The National Republican Congressional Committee on Tuesday
launched a wave of ads targeting 14 House of Representatives races
including defenses of eight incumbents and four currently
Republican-held seats whose current officeholders are not running in the
Nov. 6 elections.Trump's planned blitz of Senate battleground states
including Florida, Missouri and Tennessee follows an NBC/Marist opinion
poll showing the Democratic U.S. Senate candidate in Arizona taking a 6
percentage point lead and a Quinnipiac University Poll showing Democrat
Beto O'Rourke pulling closer to Republican Senator Ted Cruz in Texas.A
Reuters analysis of a trio of political forecasting groups showed the
picture in the House brightening for Democrats.Of 65 races seen as
competitive or leaning against the incumbent party, the odds of a
Democratic victory had increased in 48 as of Tuesday in the eyes of at
least one of the three of political forecasting groups: Cook Political
Report, Inside Elections and the University of Virginia's Center for
Politics, according to the Reuters analysis.Democrats would need a net
gain of 23 seats in the House and two in the Senate to take majorities
away from Trump's fellow Republicans, which would put them in position
to oppose the president's legislative agenda. Opinion polls and
political forecasters generally show Democrats having a strong chance of
winning a House majority, with Republicans expected to keep control of
the Senate.EARLY VOTING-Early voting has surged nationwide, with eight
states already recording more ballots cast ahead of Election Day than in
all of 2014, the last midterm congressional election cycle, according
to University of Florida researchers."Many voters are looking for
someone who will be a check and not just a rubber-stamp," said Mike
Levin, Democratic candidate in California's 49th congressional district,
which encompasses a wealthy suburban stretch between Los Angeles and
San Diego.Republican Darrell Issa currently represents the district, but
is not seeking re-election.Until recently solidly Republican, the
district had been trending Democratic in recent elections. Republican
presidential candidate Mitt Romney won it by 6 percentage points in
2012, but Democrat Hillary Clinton won it by 7 percentage points in
2016, a swing of 13 percentage points. This year, opinion polls give
Levin an edge over his Republican rival, Diane Harkey."We talk a lot
about the need to have a check on this administration," Levin said in an
interview at a campaign office in San Clemente.The seat is among more
than 40 that were held by Republicans who are not running for
re-election, the highest number since at least 1930.Republicans are
focusing their efforts on conservative districts Trump won by
double-digit margins in 2016, particularly in rural areas. That has
allowed Democrats to gain ground in more racially diverse urban and
suburban districts like the one Issa represents.In conservative areas
where Trump remains popular, from upstate New York to southern Illinois,
several Republican incumbents said they saw the odds as moving in their
favor.They said their chances have been boosted by the bruising debate
around Trump's Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, who was narrowly
confirmed by the Senate after denying a sexual assault allegation.Anger
over his contentious, protest-marred confirmation hearings and sympathy
among conservatives toward Kavanaugh have boosted the enthusiasm of the
Republican base, particularly in rural areas, candidates and strategists
said.(Reporting by Scott Malone, additional reporting by Jason Lange in

Mail bomb suspect ordered held without bail, new package found-[Reuters]-By Zachary Fagenson-YAHOONEWS-October 31, 2018
MIAMI
(Reuters) - A man accused of mailing 14 pipe bombs to prominent critics
of U.S. President Donald Trump was ordered held without bail on Monday,
and authorities intercepted a similar suspicious package addressed to
CNN in Atlanta.The latest developments in the bomb case came with just
over a week to go in highly charged political campaigns across the
nation leading up to Nov. 6 elections. Democrats are battling to seize
control of a Congress now held by Trump's Republican Party.In U.S.
District Court on Monday afternoon, Cesar Sayoc, his salt-and-pepper
hair pulled back into a ponytail, remained largely silent, only
acknowledging Judge Edwin Torres' reading of the charges against
him.Shackled and wearing a beige jumpsuit, the 56-year-old man began to
tear up, and the three attorneys with him stood shoulder to shoulder to
obscure news reporters' and photographers' view of him.Sayoc was
scheduled to appear in court in Miami again on Friday.The former male
stripper, part-time pizza deliveryman and apparent avid Trump fan is
charged with five felony counts: interstate transportation and illegal
mailing of explosives, threatening a former president, making
threatening interstate communications and assaulting federal
officers.Outside the court, defense attorney Jamie Benjamin called the
charges "flimsy" and accused the government of trying Sayoc in the
media, forcing judgment before the case has gone to court."All there is
this thin amount of evidence that has been alleged in that complaint,"
Benjamin said.Sayoc's case is expected to be moved to New York, where he
will be prosecuted by the U.S. Attorney's Office there, officials
said.Earlier on Monday, the FBI said a suspicious package addressed to
CNN's headquarters had been intercepted at an Atlanta post office.A
package containing a bomb sent to CNN's New York offices at the Time
Warner Center forced the evacuation on Wednesday of the
building.Tensions stirred by the rash of pipe bombs ratcheted up even
further after a gunman opened fire at a Pittsburgh synagogue on
Saturday, killing 11 worshipers while yelling "All Jews must die."All of
the bombs were sent through the U.S. Postal Service and intercepted
before reaching their intended targets. No one has been hurt.The first
of last week's 14 bombs turned up on Oct. 22 in the mailbox of
billionaire Democratic donor George Soros' home in the suburb of
Katonah, New York.More bombs were sent to a range of prominent
Democrats, including former President Barack Obama and former Secretary
of State and 2016 presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, and other
frequent targets of Trump's scorn.(Additional reporting by Nick Carey;

Australia’s
ex-PM warns Jerusalem embassy move could harm ties with
Indonesia-Canberra is due to sign a free trade agreement with its key
neighbor, the largest majority-Muslim country-By Rod McGuirk-NOV 1,18
CANBERRA,
Australia (AP) — A former Australian prime minister has warned the
government to expect a negative reaction from Indonesia if Australia
follows the United States by shifting its embassy in Israel from Tel
Aviv to Jerusalem.Former Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull spoke to
reporters after meeting Indonesian President Joko “Jokowi” Widodo on the
tourist island of Bali on Monday to discuss a bilateral free trade
deal.“The president expressed to me … the very serious concern held in
Indonesia about the prospect of the Australian Embassy in Israel being
moved from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem,” Turnbull told Australian Broadcasting
Corp. in an interview aired on Tuesday. “There’s no question that were
that move to occur, it would be met with a very negative reaction in
Indonesia.”“This is after all the largest … majority-Muslim country in
the world, so we have to be very clear-eyed about that and we have to
take into account Australia’s national interest and our interests in the
region when we … consider decisions like this,” he added.Prime Minister
Scott Morrison said on Tuesday no decision had been made yet on the
embassy’s location.Morrison sent his predecessor to represent Australia
at a climate change conference in Bali because of Turnbull’s close
personal rapport with the Indonesian leader, who had been disappointed
that Turnbull’s government colleagues replaced him in August in response
to poor opinion polling.Turnbull said he was confident that the free
trade deal between Australia, a nation of 25 million people, and
Indonesia, a near-neighbor with a population of more than 260 million
people, would be signed within weeks.Turnbull also said Australia should
stick with a policy of more than 40 years that its embassy should be in
Tel Aviv.Morrison, a long-time ally of Turnbull who had argued against
replacing him in a leadership ballot of government lawmakers, floated
the idea of shifting the embassy days before a by-election in a Sydney
electorate with a large Jewish population.The government lost the
by-election, forced by Turnbull’s resignation from Parliament, and its
single-seat majority in the House of Representatives.“Australia will
always make our decisions on our foreign policy based on our interests
and we’ll do that as a sovereign nation,” Morrison told reporters.We’ll
consult, we’ll listen to others, but at the end of the day … I will
always put our interests first,” he added.The Trump administration
turned its back on decades of US policy last December by recognizing
Jerusalem as Israel’s capital and in May, it moved the US Embassy from
Tel Aviv. Welcomed by Israel, the decision angered the Muslim world and
was seen as a setback for Palestinian aspirations for statehood.
Palestinians see East Jerusalem, captured by Israel in the 1967 Six Day
War, as the capital of a future independent state.Morrison said
Australia remained committed to finding a two-state solution.
Top
Palestinian body calls for revoking recognition of Israel, nixing
agreements-Decision by Palestinian Central Council is not binding, but
Abbas has vowed not to sidestep it, as he has done in the past-By
Michael Bachner-TOI-31 October 2018
A top Palestinian
body on Monday passed a motion urging Palestinian Authority President
Mahmoud Abbas to suspend all agreements with Israel and revoke
recognition of the Jewish state until Israel formally recognizes a
Palestinian state on the 1967 lines.“We recognize the right to resist
the occupation in all methods that comply with international law,” the
Palestinian Central Council, a Palestine Liberation Organization
decision-making body, said in its decision.The body, convening in
Ramallah, said Palestinians should end “all forms” of security
coordination with Israel and nullify several financial agreements that
it said were being “ignored” by Jerusalem.The vote is not binding, and a
final decision rests with Abbas. Previous votes by the council in
January 2018 and in 2015 to suspend security coordination with Israel
were not implemented.In recent years, Abbas has threatened multiple
times to nix agreements between the Palestinians and Israel, but he has
not moved to do away with them.The PA president said last week, however,
that his Ramallah-based government would not be able sidestep the
decisions the Central Council makes at its upcoming meeting, calling the
PLO body “the highest Palestinian authority.”Abbas last Wednesday
indicated in a television interview that such a move could be made when
the Palestinian Central Council convenes on Sunday and Monday.“We are
going to put all the agreements between us and the Israelis on the table
and we will ask them to stop violating each agreement,” Abbas told
Palestine TV, the official PA television station. “I am not saying this
is an easy issue; it is a dangerous issue. Perhaps we will arrive at the
point of abrogating a lot of what is between us and the Israelis.”The
PLO and Israel have signed several agreements, including the Oslo
Accords, which established the PA and outlined security, economic and
other ties between it and the Jewish state.Asked about Abbas’s statement
at the time, Foreign Ministry spokesman Emmanuel Nahshon declined to
comment.Abbas also said the Central Council could cancel agreements
between the Palestinians and the United States.On Sunday, speaking at
the opening of the PCC’s meeting, Abbas vowed to oppose any peace
proposal by US President Donald Trump and said Palestinians were facing
perhaps the “most dangerous stage” in their history, highlighting a
series of measures taken by Trump including recognizing Jerusalem as
Israel’s capital.Abbas has boycotted the White House since that December
decision, though the US president’s team is still expected to release a
peace plan in the coming months.Abbas compared the expected Trump
proposal to the 1917 Balfour Declaration, which saw the British
government commit to the creation of a state for Jews in historic
Palestine.“If the Balfour Declaration passed, this deal will not pass,”
he pledged.The US has also cut hundreds of millions of dollars in aid
for Palestinians, with Trump angered by Abbas’s refusal to meet with him
or members of his administration.He has called on Abbas to negotiate,
but Palestinian leaders say they are being blackmailed to accept Trump’s
terms, which they see as blatantly biased in favor of Israel.“They are
still talking about the deal of the era. ‘We will prepare and present
you the deal of the era. In a month, the deal of the era. In two months,
the deal of the era. In three months, the deal of the era.’ You already
presented all of the deal of the era. What of the deal of era remains?
Jerusalem, you swallowed it and moved your embassy to it. Refugees and
the right of refugees, you put an end to that,” Abbas added, saying
Trump’s actions amounted to imposing a deal unilaterally.Adam Rasgon,
agencies and Times of Israel staff contributed to this report.
