Scientists rank top 10 U.S. quake states
Nov 20, 2006, 20:40 GMT


RENO, NV, United States (UPI) Seismologists at the Nevada Seismological Laboratory have ranked the United States most earthquake prone states and found Alaska is No. 1.Alaska is followed by California.

But beyond that point, depending on how you measure activity, the rankings change.The rankings, based on the magnitude of earthquakes that occurs once per year on average: Alaska, 6.70; California, 6.02; Nevada, 5.11; Hawaii, 5.00; Washington, 4.97; Wyoming, 4.67; Idaho, 4.57; Montana, 4.47; Utah, 4.29; and Oregon, 4.24.The reason for talking about this is ... to motivate people to build structures that resist earthquakes, said NSL Director John Anderson. If you`re on this Top 10 list, hopefully it will motivate you to be better prepared in the event of a large earthquake.Anderson and colleague Yuichiro Miyata analyzed the U.S. Geological Survey`s Advanced National Seismic System`s catalog of earthquakes, which contains data from 1898-2005. The researchers supplemented that with data from the USGS catalog of significant U.S. earthquakes from 1568-1989.The research appears in the November/December issue of the journal Seismological

45 dead, thousands homeless from heavy Sri Lanka seasonal rains
Mon Nov 20, 9:39 AM ET


COLOMBO (AFP) - At least 45 people have died from floods and mudslides caused by heavy seasonal rains in Sri Lanka that left 91,000 families temporarily homeless, the National Disaster Management Centre said. The number of people drowned in the past three weeks was at 30 while 15 were buried alive in mudslides, N.D. Hettiarachchi, director of the centre said.Most of the families have gone back to their homes, but heavy rains in the past two days affected another 8,300 families who had to abandon their homes and move to high ground, Hettiarachchi told AFP on Monday.He said the government spent half a million dollars to provide immediate relief to the affected people while about 2.7 million dollars would be needed to rebuild the flood-damaged homes in the central and northwest regions of the island.

The latest flooding is the worst natural disaster since the December 2004 tsunami that killed an estimated 31,000 people and displaced a million people along much of the island's coastlines.Sri Lanka depends on monsoon rains for farming as well as for power generation. However, the seasonal rains also cause property damage and loss of life in low-lying areas.

The two main monsoon seasons in Sri Lanka are from May to September and December to February and rains also lash different parts of the island between October and November and again between March and April.

Fears rise for flood-hit refugees in Kenya
Tuesday November 21, 2006,By Steve Bloomfield


NAIROBI - The United Nations refugee agency has begun airlifting emergency aid to thousands of refugees after severe flooding hit a camp in northeastern Kenya, sweeping away thousands of temporary shelters.Up to 80,000 people, mainly refugees fleeing Somalia, have been affected by the floods which have swept through the Dadaab camp over the past week.Torrential rain has washed away much of the road leading to Dadaab from the main town in the Garissa district in the northeast, leaving the camps completely isolated.UNHCR, the UN refugee agency, flew in fuel, health kits and tarpaulins. The sanitation situation has deteriorated raising the likelihood of an outbreak of water-borne diseases, such as diarrhoea, cholera or typhoid.Flights from Nairobi began to deliver 25,000 tarpaulins to provide shelter.

Fuel is needed for the camp's boreholes which provide clean water. UNHCR tried to deliver aid by road at the weekend but 4WD vehicles sank in the thick mud as the water levels continued to rise.The short rains season in Kenya, which tends to last for a few weeks in October and November, has brought severe flooding across many parts of the country, which caught many unawares.

Torrential rain followed a long period of severe drought, which meant much of Kenya's farmland and arid plains were unable to absorb much water.In Kenya's Coast region at least 12 people died and more than 60,000 were left homeless after floods hit suddenly.

More rain is forecast over the next fortnight. A dam in eastern Kenya is on the brink of bursting, according to the UN. The rains failed last year, leading to a drought which aid agencies claimed left up to 11 million people in the Horn of Africa on the brink of a food crisis.Dadaab, less than 100km from the Somali border, is home to three refugee camps.More than 160,000 refugees live there, many of whom have been there since fleeing the fighting in Somalia in 1991. Numbers have swelled in recent months following the fighting between warlords and the Islamic Courts in Mogadishu in June.Talk between the transitional Government in Somalia and the Islamic Courts have broken down and regional analysts claim the country is on the brink of war.Ethiopia has sent troops and arms to bolster the Government, while Eritrea has supplied weapons to the Islamic Courts.Some 30,000 refugees have crossed the border since June, putting already-stretched resources under even more pressure.Aid agencies working in Dadaab said the recent flooding has made the situation unbearable.

Mohammed Qazilbash, senior programme manager for refugee assistance for CARE in Kenya, said: What was supposed to be the short rainy season has turned into a widespread disaster affecting over 100,000 people. Food storage facilities have been flooded, latrines have collapsed and a significant number of shelters, including one wing of the hospital in Ifo camp, have crumbled.

Afghan flood death toll climbs to 120 Mon Nov 20, 12:16 PM ET

KABUL, Afghanistan Heavy rain again battered remote villages in western Afghanistan already devastated by flooding, as the death toll rose to 120, officials said Monday.Aid workers delivered several tons of food and aid to people in Badghis province, said Habibullah Murghabi, the head of a government-appointed disaster committee. The delivery had taken more than two days of travel by donkey and horse to reach flood-affected villages in the mountainous region.Murghabi said the death toll in Balamurghab and Ghormach districts had risen to 62, while 92 people were reported missing.The roads are still bad, and last night there was heavy rain again. It's still raining now, Murghabi said by telephone from Badghis.Heavy rain Thursday triggered flash floods that inundated several villages in Badghis. Some 50,000 families live in the inundated area.Other affected areas in the west include Farah province, where at least 18 people have died in recent days, said provincial police chief Gen. Sayed Aga Saqib. One village of eight houses had been washed away, he said.Floods also hit the southern province of Uruzgan over the weekend, killing 40 people and destroying hundreds of homes in four districts, said Qayum Qayumi, the governor's spokesman.

Israeli minister moots international force for Gaza
(AFP) 20 November 2006


JERUSALEM - An Israeli cabinet minister on Monday mooted the possibility of deploying a multinational force in the Gaza Strip to prevent persistent Palestinian rocket attacks on the Jewish state.For the moment there is no military solution to the Qassam (rocket) fire problem on Israel from the Gaza Strip and therefore the deployment of a multinational force needs to be considered, minister without portfolio Yitzhak Cohen, from the ultra-Orthodox Shas party, told public radio.This model has worked in Lebanon...We went to war this summer in Lebanon and an average of 180 Katyusha rockets were fired against our territory every day. That stopped only thanks to (UN) Resolution 1701, he added.The Security Council resolution ushered in an August 14 ceasefire ending the 34-day conflict between Israel and Shiite militia Hezbollah and saw the deployment of a multinational UN peacekeeping force in Lebanon.Palestinian militants on Monday fired seven rockets into Israel from the Gaza Strip, which caused no casualties or damage, a military source said.

Former EU leaders call for political leap in Europe
20.11.2006 By Honor Mahony (EU OBSERVER
)

Several former EU politicians have called for a leap on the European political scene to create enough impetus to see through institutional reform in the bloc by 2009.A joint declaration, published in Florence on Friday (17 November) urges member states to get back on the path to reform of the European institutions.Signed, amongst others, by Valery Giscard d'Estaing, the architect of the frozen EU constitution, ex-German foreign minister Joschka Fischer and the former presidents of Italy and Portugal, the text calls for a political leap by all the parties concerned so that the new process is concluded at the time of the new European parliament in spring 2009.Going into detail, it says that the whole of the first and second parts of the constitution dealing with the values and aims of the bloc as well as the fundamental rights of citizens should be kept and that the contentious parts of the third section detailing the policies of the EU should be clarified.

This could be done with an additional protocol, says the declaration. We cannot remain deaf and inward-looking when faced with the necessity of the revival of the European integration process, said current Italian president Giorgio Napolitano, according to French daily Le Monde.

Berlin-Paris axis

Talk about reviving the EU institutional reform process put off track by the rejection of the European constitution by French and Dutch voters last year has gone up a notch recently.This is mainly due to the twin prospect of the German EU presidency in the first half of next year as well as French elections in April with only a concerted effort by Berlin and Paris thought to be enough to get reform back at the top of the bloc's political agenda.Additional pressure has also come from the enlargement process as several politicians including EU commission president Jose Manuel Barroso have indicated that the EU cannot expand further without internal reform.Germany has made progress on the constitution calling for an ambitious text one of the main issues of its six-month stint at the helm of the EU. Now it is waiting to hear what Paris has to offer.

The likely centre-right contender for the French presidential elections, Nicolas Sarkozy, has suggested the constitution be pared down to a mini treaty – but this has sparked hostile reactions from several quarters, including Berlin.So far, the left has not been so clear. Segolene Royal, recently chosen to be the socialist presidential candidate, has simply indicated that voters need to be won over about the need for reform in Europe.Angelica Schwall-Dueren, an EU expert for the German social democrats in parliament, told Reuters We have to hope that the respective [French] candidates don't wed themselves to a position that would make agreement on a constitution difficult in the end. I am trying to make clear to our [Socialist] partners that it is important to leave the door open to possible solutions, she added with French socialists continuing to be strongly divided over the EU constitution.For its part, Germany is planning to have a concrete timetable on the constitution and institutional reform on the table by an EU leaders summit in June with a view to bringing the reform process to fruition in 2009.

American Fears Include Iranian Biological Weapon
21:07 Nov 20, '06 / 29 Cheshvan 5767


(IsraelNN.com) Among America’s fears concerning Iran is the possibility that Tehran possess biological weapons developed by N. Korea and Syria.American officials attending the Convention on Biological Weapons (CBW) told participants that this appears to be the case. John C. Rood stated that a country like Iran, which supports terrorism, is a primary concern regarding the development of non-conventional weaponry.

35 nations meet on denying Iran nuke aid By GEORGE JAHN, Associated Press Writer Mon Nov 20, 9:42 AM ET

VIENNA, Austria - Thirty-five nations tried to find common ground Monday in a fractious session focusing on what to do about Iran's requests to the U.N. nuclear watchdog agency for help on projects including building a plutonium-producing reactor. Diplomats accredited to the meeting a committee of the International Atomic Energy Agency representing its 35 board members said there was general agreement to deny Tehran's request for aid in finishing its Arak research reactor but lack of consensus about seven other projects.Adding to discord was a ruling by the U.N. organization the International Atomic Energy Agency that the reactor, as well the as seven other projects did not pose a proliferation threat.

All (Iranian) projects are in conformity with the relevant Security Council resolution and specifically these projects do not contribute to enrichment related or reprocessing activities in Iran, Anna Maria Cetto, an agency deputy director general, told an IAEA committee meeting reviewing technical aid requests from Iran and other countries.The closed meeting adjourned but resumed later in the day to give members time to reach a common position in informal discussions.The main council concern is Tehran's uranium enrichment program and Iran's defiance of a council demand that it freeze such activities. But the Arak heavy water reactor is also worrying because once it is completed sometime in the next decade it will produce plutonium. This, like highly enriched uranium, can be used for the fissile core of nuclear warheads through reprocessing.A Security Council resolution in July demanded Iran stop all enrichment-related activities, But it did not specifically mention Arak, saying only that Tehran had to stop all reprocessing activities as well.

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said Monday that Iran would be self-sufficient in nuclear fuel in 2007, days after he acknowledged his country was far from producing enough fuel to power a nuclear reactor. To reach that goal, Iran would need to dramatically accelerate its capacity for uranium enrichment.Iran will produce its required nuclear fuel next year, the president said during a visit to Iran's Broadcasting Co., according to the company's Web site.

Pressure by the U.S. and Israel aimed at violating the rights of the Iranian nation will not succeed, he added.Normally, the United States takes the lead in demanding tough action against Tehran for defying U.N. Security Council demands that it freeze uranium enrichment.But with council agreement on sanctions mired down because of Russian and Chinese efforts to block severe punishment, diplomats said the Americans have taken a back seat to France in calling for harsher penalties.A diplomat familiar with the U.S. stance said the Americans were not backing the French in the lead with demands that all eight Iranian projects be reviewed and possibly refused because of recognition that the board would agree to nothing more than denying Iran help with Arak.

But a European diplomat said the Americans along with Australia and Canada fully backed the French but preferred Paris be publicly linked to the more hard-line position at a time when Washington was exploring the possibility of direct contacts with Tehran. Others pointed to recent changes in the top echelons of the French government agencies dealing with Iran and proliferation threats, saying new, more hard-line leadership could explain why Paris was out front in seeking tougher action.Even nonaligned nations traditionally supportive of Iran were likely to approve some form of denying Iran help for Arak, but the other seven Iran projects are less controversial.One asks for help in developing nuclear capabilities for medical use. Another seeks legal aid for the Russian-built Bushehr reactor, which even the Americans have accepted as not posing a threat to nuclear proliferation. And the five others ask for assistance in administrative or safety aspects of nuclear power, according to a list made available to the AP.

With most nations backing approval of all other projects except Arak and the IAEA ruling it did not qualify as a proliferation threat France was likely to modify its position. Denying Iran help with Arak where it is seeking agency assistance to make sure the reactor is environmentally safe would do little to slow construction of that facility or affect Tehran's other potential avenue to weapons production uranium enrichment.

Still, it would send a signal in how harshly to penalize Tehran. Ali Ashgar Soltanieh, Iran's chief delegate to the IAEA, said his country's request would benefit the international community by increasing outside involvement in Arak. By adopting this project, the agency's presence .will be much more, he said.

Iran Slowly Securing Its Grip Around Israel
By Hana Levi Julian (INN)


A nuclear threat is only one of several Iranian problems facing Israel as the Islamic Republic increases its influence in Gaza and Lebanon. Bush says he would understand an Israeli attack on Iran. The Iranian government is sending money to Gaza, gradually extending its influence over the region surrounding Israel. The Islamic Republic has donated $120 million to the Hamas-led Palestinian Authority, according to an announcement last Thursday by PA Foreign Minister Mahmoud al-Zahar. The PA official met in Tehran with Ali Larijani, the head of national security in Iran. Palestinian Authority terrorists in Gaza have become major beneficiaries of Iranian largesse recently, according to the AFP news service. Iran has handed out, until now, over $120 million and says it will supply more aid. Its support is very important for us, said the PA foreign minister.

PA terrorists have significantly stepped up their Kassam rocket attacks against southern Israeli communities recently. Sderot residents have said the rockets are increasing in accuracy, and now contain more explosives as well as ball bearings to maximize damage upon impact.Meanwhile, international efforts to stop Iran’s nuclear development activities have slowly ground to a halt. Despite threats by the U.N. Security Council to impose sanctions against the Islamic Republic if it did not end its uranium enrichment program by the end of August, the program continues uninterrupted, and no action has been taken against Iran.U.S. President George W. Bush said Sunday night he would understand if Israel attacked the Islamic Republic, but that America would not help the Jewish State to do so.According to a report in Monday’s issue of New Yorker magazine, Israeli agents operating in Iran have been passing intelligence information to the White House. The report by Seymour Hersh claimed that the information states that Iran has already developed and tested the technology for a nuclear weapon. The news reinforces a concern expressed repeatedly by both the U.S. and Israel about repeated claims by Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad that the nuclear activities currently underway will be used for peaceful, domestic purposes only.Meanwhile, north of Israel, the Iranian-backed Hizbullah terror organization is ratcheting up its efforts to topple the Lebanese government.

Hizbullah terror chieftain Hassan Nasrallah told thousands of Lebanese supporters to prepare to take to the streets of Beirut in order to force the resignation of the government. He said the current Lebanese government is a puppet of the Bush administration. Six ministers of Hizbullah and its allies have quit the Lebanese Cabinet after failing to achieve an agreement for a new unity government.

Nasrallah's speech was apparently recorded on Saturday in the southern suburbs of the Lebanese capital, an area repeatedly attacked by Israel during this summer's Second Lebanon War.Hizbullah touched off the July war with a cross-border attack in which terrorists kidnapped two IDF reservists on patrol and killed several soldiers. The next day, they began launching daily Katyusha rockets against northern Israeli communities.Thousands of Katyusha rockets rained down upon Nahariya, Haifa, Kiryat Shmona, Tzfat and other Galilee communities, prompting the evacuation of more than a third of the population in at least two cities, and more than half of the residents of Kiryat Shmonah.

Chlamydia strain may produce new diseases


OAKLAND, Calif., Nov. 20 (UPI) U.S. scientists say they have determined Chlamydia trachomatis is evolving at a rate faster than believed possible. Chlamydia trachomatis is a bacterium that is the leading cause of sexually transmitted diseases and the second leading cause of blindness worldwide.

The researchers at Children's Hospital Oakland Research Institute in California say they are the first to find the bacterium is evolving through a process called recombination, in which genes from one or more strains combine to create new strains and, theoretically, new diseases. The study, led by Dr. Deborah Dean, suggests since Chlamydia trachomatis evolves through recombination, the traditional method of studying a single gene to track the transmission of the bacterium is wrong.

What we found is an organism that not only evolves rapidly but in ways that we thought were rare. We also discovered that this organism can customize its attack, said Dean. Consequently, the constant flux of the bacterium could serve as a gateway for new emerging diseases, but more research needs to be conducted to understand if and how this is happening. The study is featured in the November issue of the journal Genome Research.

WHY WOULD GOD MAKE THIS A LAST DAYS PROPHECY, HAMAS IN HEBREW MEANS VIOLENCE, THATS WHY, TO FULFILL PROPHECY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Israel’s False Partners for Peace

Since the Palestinian Authority elections last January, it seems Hamas has aroused some serious attention. Although the Palestinian Arabs have long been obligated by agreements with Israel to abolish terrorism and terrorist groups, Hamas, a democratically elected fanatical group, has come to power, and the question that has been on everyone’s mind is: what does this mean for Israel?

When elected, Hamas replaced Fatah, the leading party of the Palestinian Authority, as the majority in the PA’s governing body. Hamas and Fatah are political opponents, one religious and one secular. Members of the two groups hate and often kill each other. Hamas, an Arabic acronym for Islamic Resistance that, prophetically, means violence in Hebrew, is a strongly religious Islamist party whose goal is the destruction of Israel, and implementation of an Islamic Arab state in its place. The Hamas charter expresses this by stating, Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it.

Fatah is a secular nationalist party, and the main party of the PLO, formed for the purpose of carrying out terrorist attacks against Israel. Yasser Arafat was the leading politician in Fatah, succeeded by Holocaust-denier Mahmoud Abbas, Arafat’s long-time ally and right-hand man. Unlike Hamas, Fatah is not a religious party, and stresses the importance of a nationalist Palestinian Arab state rather than a Muslim one.Fatah revolutionized Arab terrorism when it began hijacking planes in 1968. Fatah members instituted the now infamous terrorist tactic of hijacking passenger planes, a crime never before committed. Thus, Fatah first invented and propagated plane hijackings as a form of terrorism.

There is no solution for the Palestinian question except through jihad.—Hamas charter

Unlike its more candid pronouncements in Arabic, in English, Fatah has feigned a desire to make peace with Israel, and has called for a so-called two-state plan, which would actually be a three-state plan, as Jordan, created in 1946 out of 78% of the territory of the Palestine Mandate, is the Arab State in Palestine, and Israel is the Jewish State in Palestine. In Arabic, however, to non-Western ears, Fatah has explained that the so-called two-state plan is merely the first stage in a process of destroying Israel.

So, though Fatah seems diplomatic, or at least attempts to, in truth, its ultimate goal matches that of Hamas. Hamas does not try to hide it, and states clearly in its charter: There is no solution for the Palestinian question except through jihad. Initiatives, proposals, and international conferences are all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

However, in the end, what they say they want makes no difference, because actions speak louder than words, and blatant acts of terrorism prove that there is no chance for peace until Israel has a partner that wants it. Fatah was clearly not that partner; neither is Hamas. How so many Israelis, in order to sustain their hope for peace, continue to trust these terrorists and terrorist-supporters is a heartbreaking mystery.And so Israel continues the fight for peace, desperately hoping that someday someone else will too. For now, Hamas is what we’re dealing with, and it will not stop until it sees to the end of Israel. Or, more accurately, until Israel sees to the end of it.

1 CORINTHIANS 6:18, 7:1-2
18 Flee fornication.(SINGLE SEX OUTSIDE MARRIAGE) Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.

2 earthquakes hit Indonesia's Aceh Sat Nov 18, 10:36 PM ET

JAKARTA, Indonesia - Two moderate earthquakes within two minutes on Saturday rocked Aceh on the northwestern tip of Indonesia's Sumatra island, prompting panicked residents to flee their homes.

No casualties or damages were immediately reported in the area which was the hardest hit by a Dec. 26, 2004 tsunami triggered by a massive undersea earthquake. The quake did not trigger a tsunami but traumatized residents fled their homes immediately after they felt the jolts. They returned after about an hour.

The U.S. Geological Survey said the two magnitude-5.8 tremors were centered 31 and 35 miles beneath the Indian Ocean, 60 miles southwest of the provincial capital Banda Aceh.A magnitude-9 earthquake triggered the 2004 tsunami that killed more than 131,000 people in Aceh province and left a half-million homeless.Indonesia, the world's largest archipelago, is prone to seismic upheaval due to its location on the so-called Pacific Ring of Fire, an arc of volcanos and fault lines encircling the Pacific Basin.

26 Men’s hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.

Winter Weather Center Northwest Storminess Still the Only Story
Posted: 19-NOV-2006 06:12am EST


The semi-permanent Gulf of Alaska low pressure system will send another series of storm systems into the Pacific Northwest heading through much of next week. The first system will arrive Sunday, with a cold front pushing through Sunday night. Although potent, this system will be centered well to the north in British Columbia when it pushes onshore, sending warmer air well to the north once again. This means snow levels will be above most of the passes for the duration of the storm, and will not fall until later Sunday night and Monday, when a few slushy inches could occur across the major passes.

On Tuesday, another storm system will take shape off the Northwest Coast. This time there will be cold air in place, in the wake of the first system. Also, most of its energy and moisture will be focused farther south, and when the low pressure center does finally come onshore, it will be much farther south, allowing cold air to remain in place. Thus the Cascades will see another onslaught of heavy snow during the Tuesday through Thursday period, with colder air and moisture spreading into northern and central Idaho as well. Before the storm finally pushes inland later in the week, and drier air is allowed into the region, several feet of snow will have
accumulated in the Cascades.

Outside of the Pacific Northwest, the rest of the country will be unusually quiet. While it is not out of the ordinary to see such a lack of cold air in mid- to late November, it is unusual to see such a lack of storm systems. With an area of low pressure cutting-off off the Southeast Coast, the jet stream will be forced to flow around it, well to the north of the eastern two-thirds of the country. Thus, most of the country will see increasingly quiet weather heading into Thanksgiving week, with only the beginnings of chillier air and a more southern storm track arriving next weekend.By AccuWeather.com Meteorologist Alex Dodd

FOURTH ANGEL: REVEALED TO DR DOCTORIAN.

Now we go to Africa. I saw the fourth angel with wings fly over Africa, and I could see from Capetown in the south all the way to the north of Cairo - I saw all the countries there, more than fifty of them. The angel of Africa had a sword in his hand - a tremendous, sharp sword. Suddenly I heard him say, Innocent blood has been shed. Divisions amongst the people generations far from the Lord - they have killed one another, thousands of people. I have seen my faithful children in Africa, and I shall reward all the faithful in the continent of Africa. I shall bless them abundantly. I shall control the weather - scorching and burning of the sun in some parts. Great rivers shall dry up, and millions will die from starvation. In other parts, flooding. Foundations shall be shaken. My sword shall judge the unrighteous and the bloodthirsty. So many earthquakes shall happen that rivers shall flow different directions in the continent, flooding many villages. I saw great pieces falling from the sky over different parts of Africa There shall be trembling of the earth like has not been seen since the creation. None shall escape the sword of the Lord. I saw the River Nile drying up. It is the god of Egypt.

Fishes dead and stinking all over Egypt. A great part of the middle of Africa will be covered with water - millions dying. Lord, I said, It is all bad news. All destruction. Any good news? The Lord said, The final day has come. Judgment day is here. My love has been refused now, and the end has come. I was shaking and trembling. I thought I cannot bear it.


Flood-hit refugees call for help in Kenya
18 Nov 2006 08:21:34 GMT,Source: Reuters,Somalia troubles ,By Richard Lough


DADAAB, Kenya, Nov 18 (Reuters) - Solomon Pile waded waist-deep through the flood water carrying his bicycle above his head, searching for higher ground after torrential rain swept away his family's makeshift shelter.We need help, the 17-year-old Somali refugee called out, swaying unsteadily in the fast-flowing water. We left the camp and moved into the bush, but our food has been spoiled and we are drinking the floodwater.This week the U.N. said more than 78,000 people had lost their homes to floods in northeastern Kenya's Dadaab area, and three vast refugee camps there were completely cut off.Torrential rains and floods have hit up to 1.8 million people in the Horn of Africa, driving tens of thousands from their homes and threatening to trigger epidemics, U.N. aid bodies say.

Some 160,000 mostly Somalis shelter in the Dadaab camps Ifo, Dagahaley and Hagadera in shacks of twisted sticks and plastic sheets, having fled growing tensions in their homeland.On Friday, the UNHCR refugee agency had hoped to deliver emergency aid to the worst affected groups, particularly the sick and elderly. But the fast-rising waters drove them back.Four-wheel-drive vehicles became bogged down in thick mud and were left to be recovered later. Staff returned to Dadaab town on foot. More rain is forecast over the next two weeks.The U.N. is now considering using donkeys and carts, or even boats, to distribute supplies.

REDIRECT WATERS

Satimo Ibrahim, a 40-year-old mother of six, said things were so bad she had seen people sleeping on top of toilet blocks to escape the floods.Her family was sleeping in a crumbling kitchen, after their three-bedroom shack was swept away.Our immediate need is to redirect the waters away from the houses that remain standing, she said.The hospital at Ifo camp was badly damaged by the floods, and some patients had to be moved on stretchers.On Friday, a mechanical digger hacked out protection dikes around Dagahaley camp as residents were called to stack sandbags around other medical centres and lift hundreds of sacks of U.N. World Food Programme (WFP) maize and sorghum onto pallets out of reach of the waters.WFP said more than 30 tonnes of food was already spoiled.UNHCR temporarily withdrew all its staff from the three camps on Friday, and encouraged residents to move to higher ground where it is preparing water points and latrines.They say they are preparing for possible typhoid, cholera and malaria outbreaks, but they have met some resistance.We can't shift because we would be leaving all our necessities behind, said Ifo camp chairman Ahmed Aden chewing his last leaves of khat, a mild stimulant now in short supply.What about the aid agency offices, the ration distribution centre and the hospital?

N.C. officials: $500K in tornado damage Sun Nov 19, 1:21 AM ET

RIEGELWOOD, N.C. - A tornado that killed eight people in southeastern North Carolina caused at least $500,000 worth of damage, officials said.Kip Godwin, chairman of the Columbus County Board of Commissioners, said Saturday that damage assessment teams determined that 13 homes in the Riegelwood area were destroyed. One home had major damage and a couple dozen more had minor damage, he said.The damage estimate could increase after officials analyze tax values, Godwin said.The tornado hit a mobile home park in Riegelwood early Thursday. Cleanup efforts continued Saturday as victims tried to uncover some of their belongings.Also Saturday, a disaster assistance center opened to help storm victims apply for state disaster grants and loans from the U.S. Small Business Administration.Four children were listed in critical condition at hospitals Friday, and Godwin said Saturday there were no updates on their conditions.The tornado was part of a devastating line of thunderstorms that killed 12 as they swept across the South. Riegelwood is a small town on the Cape Fear River about 20 miles west of coastal Wilmington.

Asia-Pacific Leaders End Summit With Pledge for Freer Trade, Concern
Over North Korea Test (VOA)


President Bush has joined with leaders of 20 other Asia-Pacific economies in a pledge to advance stalled global trade talks.

That pledge came Sunday at the close of the annual summit of APEC, the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation grouping in Vietnam, where leaders also joined in expressing concern over North Korea's nuclear test. The week-long annual meeting of Asia-Pacific business people and ministers aimed to break the impasse in world trade negotiations,which stalled in July, mostly over a dispute on farm subsidies that divide rich and poor countries.At the close Sunday, leaders gathered for the traditional summit photowearing Vietnamese outfits. Host Vietnamese President Nguyen Minh Triet read the leaders declaration, saying the 21 member economies must spare no effort to break the deadlock in global trade talks and achieve a balanced outcome.He says his government will look at measures to promote regional economic integration to aid APEC's goal of liberalizing trade.

Those measures include removing obstacles for business, protecting copyrights, creating ways to fight health pandemics, terrorism and the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction.

Vietnam hosted the APEC meeting days after it was admitted to the World Trade Organization, marking a major milestone for the communist country in its efforts to keep its economy booming, and open itself to foreign trade and investment.

Leaders also agreed to look for ways to start a U.S.-backed plan for a trans-Pacific free trade area that would stretch from China to Chile,and from Australia to Canada. Discussion of that plan is set to begin at next year's APEC meeting in Australia.

Regional security was another big theme, after North Korea's October 9 nuclear test. While not written in the final declaration, APEC leaders verbally expressed strong concern, and stressed the need for members to comply with U.N. sanctions imposed on
the North.Pledges made at APEC are non-binding. However, analysts see the gatherings as significant, considering that APEC economies account for roughly half of the world's Gross Domestic Product.President Bush headed to Vietnam's bustling commercial center, Ho Chi Minh City - formerly Saigon - on Sunday, following a meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin, whose country is one of the six participants in the North Korean nuclear disarmament talks.

1 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
2 Son of man, set thy face against Gog,(RULER) the land of Magog,(RUSSIA) the chief prince of Meshech(MOSCOW)and Tubal,(TOBOLSK) and prophesy against him,
3 And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech(MOSCOW) and Tubal:
4 And I will turn thee back, and put hooks into thy jaws,(GOD FORCES THE MUSLIMS TO MARCH) and I will bring thee forth, and all thine army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed with all sorts of armour, even a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords:

6 Gomer,(GERMANY) and all his bands; the house of Togarmah (TURKEY)of the north quarters, and all his bands:(SUDAN,AFRICA) and many people with thee.
7 Be thou prepared, and prepare for thyself, thou, and all thy company that are assembled unto thee, and be thou a guard unto them.
8 After many days thou shalt be visited: in the latter years thou shalt come into the land that is brought back from the sword, and is gathered out of many people, against the mountains of Israel, which have been always waste: but it is brought forth out of the nations, and they shall dwell safely all of them.
9 Thou shalt ascend and come like a storm, thou shalt be like a cloud to cover the land, thou, and all thy bands, and many people with thee.(RUSSIA-EGYPT AND MUSLIMS)
10 Thus saith the Lord GOD; It shall also come to pass, that at the same time shall things come into thy mind, and thou shalt think an evil thought:
11 And thou shalt say, I will go up to the land of unwalled villages; I will go to them that are at rest, that dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates,
12 To take a spoil, and to take a prey; to turn thine hand upon the desolate places that are now inhabited, and upon the people that are gathered out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and goods, that dwell in the midst of the land.

Kassams Send Sderot Victims to Hospital
By Hillel Fendel (INN)


Over ten Kassam rockets were fired at Sderot and environs over the weekend - and the last one has left a resident in moderate to-serious condition the fourth major casualty in four days. Two Kassam rockets were fired at the western Negev early Sunday morning, causing no injuries but shortly before 7:45 AM, another volley hit Sderot, and this time the people were not as fortunate. Shrapnel from one of the deadly projectiles hit one person, causing him moderate-to-serious injuries. A Magen David Adom emergency health crew treated him on the spot, but he was then taken by ambulance to Barzilai Hospital in Ashkelon. Two other people were also taken to the hospital to be treated for shock.This past Wednesday morning, Fatima Slutzker a Moslem woman, mother of two, who immigrated to Israel with her Jewish husband and their two sons several years ago was killed by a Kassam rocket. In the same attack, Maor Peretz, a guard at the home of Sderot resident Defense Minister Amir Peretz, was seriously injured, and both of his legs were subsequently amputated below the knee. On Thursday, a 17-year-old youth was seriously wounded by rocket shrapnel in his stomach.

It was later reported that yet another Kassam was fired, landing in the Eshkol region of the western Negev around 8:15 AM and causing no injuries.The Cabinet ministers will discuss various options to the ongoing rocket strikes at Israel's civilian population.

Though several ministers have been quoted as saying that 'no other country would tolerate such a situation' and the like, the Cabinet is not expected to approve a wide-scale military operation in Gaza. An IDF strike at a vehicle in Gaza this afternoon reportedly killed one terrorist. The incident was an instance of the practice known as targeted killing of terrorists.During the night, the IDF was forced to cancel a planned aerial strike on a suspected terrorist target in Gaza when hundreds of Arab residents gathered around the building. The IDF, as is customary, had given notice to the families living in the building of the impending strike, but instead of leaving the area, the residents notified their friends, who came to the site. The villagers chanted anti-American and Israeli slogans indicating they would rather die rather than surrender to Israel.

The targeted building was the home of Popular Resistance Committees commander Mohammad al-Baroud, who resides in Beit Lahiya in northern Gaza. The terrorists plan to make this a regular practice. We call upon all the fighters to reject evacuating their houses, said Abu Abir, a spokesman for the Popular Resistance Committees, quoted by Reuters, and we urge our people to rush into the threatened houses and make human shields.The General Security Service (Shabak) announced today that 1,004 Kassam rockets have been fired at the Sderot region in the course of this year. In 2005, the number of rockets was 306, and in the year before that, 159 rockets were fired at Sderot and environs.

NUCLEAR WEAPONS WILL BE USED.

India Test-Fires Nuclear-Capable Missile
The Associated Press ,By ARCHANA MISHRA
November 19, 2006


India successfully test-fired a medium-range nuclear-capable missile on Sunday, days after its rival Pakistan launched a similar missile.The Prithvi missile was fired into the Bay of Bengal from the test range in Chandipur in the eastern state of Orissa, the official said on condition of anonymity as he is not allowed to reveal his identity under ministry rules.

The test comes three days after rival Pakistan carried out a similar test of its nuclear-capable Ghauri missile, also known as the Hatf 5.The competing missile tests came after the countries concluded a crucial round of peace talks in New Delhi aimed at resolving their differences, including the thorny issue of their territorial dispute over the Himalayan region of Kashmir.Peace talks often come under criticism from hard-liners in both India and Pakistan, which have fought three wars two of them over Kashmir since independence from Britain in 1947.

Sunday's test was routine and part of the country's air defense exercises, Press Trust of India news agency quoted an unnamed official as saying.India routinely test-fires missiles it is developing for military use, as does Pakistan. Pakistan Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Tasnim Aslam said Sunday that India had informed Pakistan ahead of time about the test, as is standard between the nuclear rivals.On Saturday, district authorities in Chandipur evacuated around 2,750 villagers living near the missile testing range to two large shelters about a mile away, PTI said.Hosted by: Topix.net Publisher Platform (beta)

Summit concludes with push for free trade in oil
Tim Colebatch,November 20, 2006 (The age.com)


Melbourne'S G20 meeting of the world's most important finance ministers has concluded by calling for free markets in oil and other forms of energy starting a campaign some hope will lead one day to the break-up of the OPEC oil producers cartel.Ministers, central bank governors and officials have flown out of Melbourne after a final day that was free from the street fighting of Saturday.Treasurer
Peter Costello, who chaired the meeting, declared it extremely successful.He highlighted its endorsement of a broad statement of support for well-functioning markets as the best way of giving countries future access to energy sources and new technologies needed to tackle climate change.The finance ministers and bank governors, including US Federal Reserve chairman Ben Bernanke and his counterparts from Europe, Japan, China and India, also gave each other a warning to tighten economic policies, to end the days of easy money and big deficits.

We need to take advantage of the present strength in the global economy to get policy settings right, they declared.In comments directed primarily at the US, Europe and Japan, they warned of the potential for inflation, urged further normalisation of interest rates, and called on governments to improve their budget balances now so they could respond to any future slump in growth. We are determined to implement these policies, they warned.Outside the meeting, police arrested seven protesters after the organised violence of Saturday's demonstrations, which left 10 police injured and considerable damage. Chief Commissioner Christine Nixon has created a taskforce to track down and arrest those responsible.Mr Costello denounced them as a small group of antisocial people .criminals who want to smash property and injure people. Prime Minister John Howard branded them a mob of troublemakers.

The G20 meeting did not meet all the hopes of its organisers, but the Australians were happy that it went smoothly, was not disrupted by protests and reached some consensus on issues Australia had put on the agenda, notably energy security.But Make Poverty History campaign leaders, including the Treasurer's brother Tim Costello, slammed the meeting for not giving world poverty higher priority.The ministers reiterated their commitment to reform the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank, but rejected Australia's push to complete it next year.Development aid was discussed only briefly, and climate change only in the context of promoting free markets as the way to energy security.On energy, the communique called for well-functioning markets characterised by clear price signals, open trade and investment, market transparency, good governance and effective competition.This would support investment in new supply, bring forth efficiencies and new technologies, encourage the use of alternate and renewable energy sources, and allow knowledge and resources to flow across borders. Mr Costello, who opposes the OPEC oil cartel, said delegates told the meeting that free markets without cartel activity would be better for investment, energy security and prices.

OPEC, the Organisation of Petroleum Exporting Countries, comprises 13 of the world's biggest oil exporters.Critics have accused it of deliberately forcing up world oil prices.Canadian Finance Minister James Flaherty said seven of the world's 10 biggest oil producers were state-owned. Since oil prices began rising, they had lifted production at only a third the rate of private oil firms.Tim Costello, head of World Vision, and Oxfam Australia chief Andrew Hewett, co-chairmen of Make Poverty History, said delegates and the Australian Government had missed an opportunity to increase aid and deliver new policies to help wipe out poverty.With DEWI COOKE

Flash floods leave trail of death in dry Afghanistan
Herat, Afghanistan ,17 November 2006 02:41


Flash floods caused by heavy rains have killed nearly 50 people in western Afghanistan, with 60 more missing, the Afghan Health Ministry said on Friday.Forty-seven bodies had been recovered after floods hit the western province of Badghis on Thursday, ministry official Ahmad Shah Shokohmand said, citing information provided by provincial health authorities.The bodies were being kept in a mosque in Balamurghab, a town about 30km from the border with Turkmenistan, Shokohmand said.The governor of Badghis, Mohammad Nasim Tokhi, had said earlier that at least 13 people, including children, had drowned while nearly 100 more were missing.The floods washed away villages along the Murghab River, he said, warning that thousands of people were still in danger. It was a huge flood. We have 13 bodies recovered and dozens, nearly 100, are missing, he said, citing information about the missing from their families.

The Nato-led International Security Assistance Force said it was aware of the serious situation and was working with the government to send disaster relief, including eight tonnes of medical supplies, to the area.Afghanistan, especially the west and south, has been in the grip of drought but heavy rains started falling in several areas in the past week. Badghis has been especially hard hit by a lack of rain with reports that hundreds of families had left their land.The British-based charity Christian Aid said in September that it had found that most water sources in Badghis and adjoining Herat and Ghor provinces had dried up. In the south of the country, meanwhile, the bodies of two Afghans who drowned in the province of Zabul on Thursday were recovered on Friday, provincial police said. Their vehicle was hit by a flood while passing a flood plain. Two of the four passengers in the vehicle were killed, a police spokesperson said.He said the four were with a foreign-based security organisation but this could not be confirmed.

The United Nations World Food Programme renewed calls on Friday for urgent funds to buy food for millions of Afghans facing shortages this winter, some of whom had been affected by drought.

Our stocks are empty, a spokesperson for the UN programme, Ebadullah Ebadi, said.The world body needs $30-million for its winter food delivery to 3,5-million Afghans who rely on its help, he said. Another three million who are not covered by the WFP are also severely and chronically affected by food shortages, Ebadi said.In addition to this, 1,9[-million people] have been affected by drought, he said.

Water warning leaves Vancouver high and dry
Fri Nov 17, 2006 3:06pm ET,


VANCOUVER, British Columbia (Reuters) - More than two million residents on Canada's Pacific coast puzzled on Friday over a warning they might normally associate with the Third World: don't drink the water.Health officials issued a boil-water advisory for the Vancouver-area after a storm stirred up silt in the region's reservoirs and increased the risk of bacteria-borne disease.No illnesses have been reported and officials said no bacteria had actually been found but residents were told not to use water for drinking, brushing teeth or washing fruit and vegetables unless it had been boiled first. The advisory issued on Thursday quickly emptied store shelves of bottled water and forced restaurants and coffee shops in Canada's third largest city to turn away customers.

Don't bother, they don't have any coffee, said Sara, a panhandler outside a downtown Tim Hortons Inc. restaurant, as she directed confused commuters to the few places where they could get their morning caffeine fix.This is all really stupid, she added.Across the street in a normally busy Starbucks Corp. shop, the staff stood around with nothing to do.The boil-water advisory was issued after heavy rains on Wednesday caused mudslides in the mountains that surround Vancouver, which serve as its source of water supply, dumping silt into reservoirs already churned up by winds gusting at more than 100 km/h (62 mph).

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.

Apec summit to push trade talks


President Bush is likely to hold talks with other leaders on North Korea. Asia-Pacific leaders are to pledge to tackle a deadlock in global trade talks at a key regional summit in Vietnam. In a draft statement circulated before the Asia-Pacific Economic Co-operation (Apec) forum, the leaders say they will take the lead by making concessions. World Trade Organization (WTO) talks collapsed in July after countries failed to reach agreement on subsidies. President Bush has been holding talks with regional leaders to boost support for sanctions against North Korea. Over a bilateral breakfast meeting, he urged South Korean President Roh Moo-hyun to implement the sanctions and also support the US-led Proliferation Security Initiative (PSI), a voluntary programme designed to prevent the trafficking of material for weapons of mass destruction.

Mr Roh said he supported the principles of the PSI but left the level of Seoul's compliance unclear, saying he would not take part in the full scope of the initiative. In a lunchtime meeting between Mr Bush and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, the two leaders agreed to pursue a ballistic missile defence programme against the threat from North Korea. Mr Bush will see Chinese counterpart Hu Jintao and Russian President Vladimir Putin on Sunday.

Ambitious agreement

Mr Bush may also use the summit to try to gather support for a free trade zone between the organisation's 21 members. Correspondents say the proposal is seen as an insurance policy in case efforts to revive world trade talks fail. The global WTO talks were meant to boost free trade for the benefit of developing countries. But an inability by the US and Europe to agree over how to reduce agricultural subsidies caused the talks to stall in the so-called Doha round. According to the draft statement, the 21 Apec leaders will say: We are ready to break the current deadlock each of us is committed to move beyond our current positions in key areas of the Doha round. This will mean opening up agriculture markets and making deeper reductions in trade-distorting farm support by major players, it says. The leaders will pledge to remain personally involved in pushing negotiations forward and trying to secure a breakthrough. Apec's trade and foreign ministers agreed to press their leaders to issue a statement on trade in the course of the two-day conference. Only an ambitious Doha agreement with real market access can achieve the economic growth and development goals that this world has set, Mr Bush said in Singapore before heading to Hanoi.

The forum in the Vietnamese capital is also expected to focus on economic security threats. Hanoi gets set for big day China challenges US at forum Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono told business leaders on Friday that economic security must be on every country's agenda. This would ensure they could work together against such threats as terrorism, flu pandemics and natural disasters, he said. Speaking after his arrival on Friday, Mr Bush said he felt amazed to be in Vietnam given the two countries difficult history.Following talks with Australian Prime Minister John Howard, Mr Bush said he would consult Australia over any repositioning of troops in Iraq. The two leaders also discussed climate change. Mr Howard had promised to seek support for alternatives to the Kyoto Protocol. Meanwhile New Zealand Prime Minister Helen Clark urged Apec leaders to include climate change on their agenda, warning of dire consequences if action was delayed.

Bush: Asia, U.S. must trade and fight terror together
POSTED: 3:55 p.m. EST, November 18, 2006


(CNN) -- President Bush stressed on Saturday the shared advantages of U.S.-Asia cooperation in trade and in fighting militant Islamic terrorism and a nuclear North Korea.Asia is important to America because prosperity in our country depends on trade with Asia's growing economies, he said in his weekly radio address. The U.S. president is in Hanoi, Vietnam, attending the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation Forum.Today, America's trade across the Pacific is greater than our trade across the Atlantic, and we need to continue opening up markets in this part of the world to American goods and services.The issue of global free trade has been a contentious one in the United States, with critics saying Americans lose jobs because they are unable to compete with cheaper labor and business costs overseas.

Bush apparently addressed that criticism and reiterated his commitment to free trade. As long as the playing field is level, America's farmers, small businesses, and workers can compete with anyone, so America will continue to pursue free and fair trade at every level with individual countries across whole regions and through the World Trade Organization, he said.Continuing his theme of challenges that the United States and Asia have in common and the necessity of joining forces to meet them, Bush cited terror attacks in Asia such as the 2005 attack in Bali, Indonesia, in which 19 people died and the 2004 attack on a ferry in Manila Bay that killed 100.Asia is important to America because we face common threats to our security. The people of this region understand the terrorist threat because they have been targets of terrorist violence, he said, adding the terrorists stated goal is a radical Islamic empire stretching from Europe to Southeast Asia.

Referring to a threat very close to home for Asians, Bush said that it was urgent that North Korea's nuclear weapons program be stopped. At the APEC meeting, Bush had endorsed a statement all 21 Pacific Rim members plan to issue to express their worries about North Korea's first nuclear test on October 9 and its missile launches in July.Our nations are speaking with one voice: North Korea must abandon its nuclear weapons programs, and we will not tolerate North Korea's proliferation of nuclear technology to hostile regimes and terrorist networks.We will also continue working with Japan, China, South Korea, and Russia through the six-party talks, he said.

Province warned of highly infectious pig diseases
Sat Nov 18 2006,By Ian Hitchen


BRANDON Manitoba isn't ready for a pair of highly infectious viruses that could infect pigs and cripple the province's $3-million-a-day hog industry, said a top animal health official at Manitoba Agriculture. Veterinarian Dr. Terry Whiting said Friday at a disaster management conference at the Keystone Centre that the province doesn't have the slaughter capacity to cope with pigs that would have nowhere to go if the United States shuts its border. We're not quite (ready) yet, we're working on it. Outbreaks of foreign animal disease are rare here, Whiting said, occurring about once every 50 years. There was an outbreak of foot-and-mouth disease in Saskatchewan in 1952, the BSE crisis in 2003, and avian flu in B.C.'s Fraser Valley in 2004.

The economic costs of outbreaks can be huge, with the BSE crisis bringing an estimated $7 billion loss. Whiting said Manitoba's pork industry will be hit with a similar crisis if there's a foot-and-mouth disease or swine fever outbreak.

Manitoba is Canada's largest pig-producing and pig-exporting province, exporting six million live pigs last year. That included two to three million young pigs, many bound for the U. S. However, Europe, the United States and Mexico won't purchase live animals or meat products if Manitoba has a foot-and-mouth disease or swine fever outbreak.

If the American border is shut, it will block about 15,000 small pigs per day shipped from Manitoba to heated barns in the U. S. where they're raised. The province doesn't have the capacity to slaughter the animals that would build up on farms, Whiting said. There's a lack of private insurance and no national livestock program to support farmers during a crisis and there needs to be a national disaster relief program to address foreign animal disease, he added. - Brandon Sun

Europe Intolera
nt

THE Dutch have joined the growing and totally paranoid drive in Europe against all things Islamic. The Netherlands, once hailed as the most tolerant and liberal country in the continent, has become the first European state to impose a total ban on burqa or hijab and veil used by the millions of Muslim women in Europe and around the world.The ban, coming as it does five days ahead of a general election in the country, leaves one in no doubt that the Dutch politicians are playing to the gallery hoping to win their hardline constituency. The minister of immigration, Rita Verdonk, has justified the move on public safety and security grounds. This concern for public safety and security would have you think the terrorists are widely using the Islamic burqa or veil to target the Netherlands. However, according to the Dutch Muslim community, the oldest and one of the most active in Europe, there are only 50 women in the Arab-Muslim community who use burqa or veil to cover their face.

So the explanation that the ban on burqa is in the interest of ‘public safety and security is nothing but bunkum. In fact, by resorting to such shortsighted shenanigans, countries like the Netherlands are only further alienating their religious and cultural minorities.

More to the point, moves like these coupled, with the ever widening war on terror, are driving young and unhappy Muslims into the welcoming arms of extremist groups such as Al Qaeda. Last week, Britain reported that its intelligence agencies had neutralised 30 terror plots in last one year alone. But why should it be surprising when you have once liberal and multicultural societies such as Britain and France are doing everything to isolate and drive away their large Muslim minorities? While Britain is punishing its Muslim women for choosing the veil, France has imposed a total ban on headscarf or hijab in its schools.

All this of course is done in the name of Europe’s hallowed traditions of secularism and liberalism. While nudity and all kinds of sexual perversions are hailed as freedom across the West, a lone woman in hijab or veil minding her own business is like a rag to a bull. If this is not hypocrisy, what is? If Europe is keen to fully integrate its religious minorities making them a healthy and contributing part of its society, it would do well to accept them with all their religious and cultural distinctions and diversity. There is no other model of integration.

AL chief says ready to cooperate with Europe on new Mideast peace initiative www.chinaview.cn 2006-11-19 04:41:03

CAIRO, Nov. 18 (Xinhua) -- Arab League (AL) Secretary General Amr Moussa Saturday said that the AL is ready to cooperate with European nations on a new initiative on holding a Mideast peace conference to end the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, Egypt's official news agency MENA reported.Spanish Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero announced earlier on Thursday a French-Spanish-Italian initiative which calls for an international peace conference, an immediate cessation of violence and an exchange of prisoners between Israeli and Palestinian sides. Moussa said in a press statement that the Spanish-French-Italian initiative, which is aiming to stop further deterioration in the Mideast, is gaining a wide-range European support. He disclosed that a European meeting will be held next week to crystallize the European proposal. The AL chief also expressed his organization's readiness to cooperate with the European nations on the initiative and all other proposals aiming to establish a genuine Mideast peace process.

He also hailed a Kuwaiti initiative to offer 30 million U.S. dollars in aid to the Palestinians, saying that other Arab countries would offer more funds to the Palestinians soon. Moussa said the pan-Arab body is determined to offer financial support to the Palestinians and reject the policy of starving the Palestinians. As Hamas rejects three international conditions of recognizing Israel, renouncing violence and honoring previous agreements signed with Israel, the Hamas-led Palestinian government has faced political and economic sanctions since it took office in March. The conditions were set by the Quarter Committee comprising Russia, the United States, the European Union and the United Nations -- which has been a major mediator in the Palestinian-Israeli conflict.
