7 The LORD did not set his love upon you, nor choose you, because ye were more in number than any people;(ISRAEL) for ye were the fewest of all people:
8 But because the LORD loved you,(ISRAEL) and because he would keep the oath which he had sworn unto your fathers, hath the LORD brought you out with a mighty hand, and redeemed you out of the house of bondmen, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt.

Israel rejects criticism of new Jerusalem housing
APBy IAN DEITCH - Associated Press | AP – SEPT 28,11


JERUSALEM (AP) — The Israeli government on Wednesday rejected international criticism of its decision to build 1,100 new Jewish housing units in east Jerusalem, claiming the plans do not hinder peace efforts with the Palestinians.Israel announced Tuesday that it had given the green light for the new construction in the Jewish neighborhood of Gilo in southeast Jerusalem. The Palestinians condemned the plan, and the U.S., European Union and United Nations all swiftly expressed their disappointment over the settlements, which raised already heightened tensions after last week's Palestinian move to seek U.N. membership.In every peace plan that has been put on the table over the last 18 years, Gilo remains an integral part of Jewish Jerusalem, said Mark Regev, a spokesman for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. There is no contradiction between this planning decision and the government's desire to move forward in peace toward two states for two peoples.Gilo is not a settlement, nor is it an outpost, Gilo is a neighborhood in the very heart of Jerusalem, only about a 5 minute drive from the very center of town.The Palestinians have demanded that Israel halt all settlement construction in east Jerusalem, which the Palestinians claim as their future capital, and the adjacent West Bank — territories captured by Israel in the 1967 Mideast war — as a condition for resuming peace talks.

Since capturing east Jerusalem, Israel has annexed the area and ringed it with about 10 Jewish enclaves that are meant to solidify its control. Gilo, which is close to the Palestinian city of Bethlehem, is among the largest, with about 50,000 residents. Israel's annexation of east Jerusalem has not been internationally recognized.Saeb Erekat, the chief Palestinian negotiator, said Tuesday after the Israeli housing announcement that the decision amounted to 1,100 no's to the resumption of peace talks.With peace negotiations stalled for the past three years, the Palestinians last week asked the U.N. Security Council to recognize an independent Palestinian state in the West Bank, east Jerusalem and Gaza Strip.The U.S. has vowed to veto the Palestinian request in the Security Council. Both Israel and the U.S. say a Palestinian state can be established only through negotiations.
The fate of east Jerusalem is the most explosive issue in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The sector is home to Jerusalem's Old City, which houses sensitive Jewish, Muslim and Christian holy sites.Netanyahu says he will never relinquish east Jerusalem, which Israel considers an integral part of its capital. The Palestinian leadership has vowed it will not accept a state without key parts of east Jerusalem as its capital.In all, about 200,000 Jews live in east Jerusalem areas that Israel calls neighborhoods and the Palestinians call settlements. Squeezed between them are Arab neighborhoods that are home to some 250,000 Palestinians.Also Wednesday, Israeli authorities said that Palestinian assailants are to blame for a car crash that killed an Israeli father and his infant son in the West Bank last week on the eve of the Palestinian bid for recognition at the United Nations.Police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld said the investigation found that the Israeli man lost control of his car after he was hit in the head by a stone. Palestinian youths regularly throw stones at Israeli cars in the West Bank.The crash was initially thought to have been an accident.

UN Council buys time on Palestine membership bid
AFPAFP – SEPT 28,11


The UN Security Council on Wednesday pushed back a decision on the Palestinian bid to join the United Nations in a move that will give more time to international efforts to revive direct talks.But UN envoys for the two foes wrangled over who is to blame for the latest year-old negotiations deadlock, with diplomats warning both sides are hardening their positions.The 15-member Security Council sent the bid made by Palestinian president Mahmud Abbas last Friday to a special membershp committee to give its verdict.A full session of the council met for barely two minutes in the first public discussion of the bid that the United States has vowed to veto when it comes to a vote.Unless I hear a proposal to the contrary I shall send the application of Palestine to the committee on new members, said Lebanon's UN ambassador Nawaf Salam, president of the council for September. No comments were made and Salam hurriedly brought the gavel down to get the meeting over.The membership committee, made up of all 15 council nations, will hold its first meeting on Friday.Abbas was given a standing ovation in the UN General Assembly last Friday after making the historic application.The United States and Israel, strongly opposing the bid, say only direct Israel-Palestinian talks can create a Palestinian state.The diplomatic Quartet on the Middle East -- the United States, Russia, European Union and United Nations -- has since launched a new campaign to get the two sides back into talks with a set timetable.Palestinians ended US-brokered talks one year ago when Israel ended a moratorium on settlement construction in the occupied territories. Israel's approval of another 1,100 homes in East Jerusalem has further infuriated the Palestinian leadership.

Palestinian envoy to the UN, Riyad Mansour, called the construction offensive, provocative and illegal and 1,100 answers to thwart the efforts to revive talks.He said it was a clear answer by the Israeli government to the Quartet, to negotiation and to the refusal to abide by the global consensus on the fact that settlements are an illegal obstacle to peace.Ron Prosor, Israel's UN ambassador, said the Palestinians are using every pretext in order not to find a reason not to go into negotiations.Is it easy, the answer is no. Is it frustrating -- yes. Do we have sleepless nights, yes. But at the end of the day that is the only way forward,he said of the talks process.When asked about the approval of new settlements, Prosor said Israel was ready to negotiate on Jerusalem with other final status topics.

Israeli officials have signalled a hardline on East Jerusalem however and Prosor told reporters: Jerusalem, I would like to stress, that is the capital of the Jewish people. This is our heart. Jerusalem, if I may say so, was the capital of the Jewish people when London was still a swamp.The ambassador acknowledged that Israel is working with the United States to get Security Council members to oppose or abstain in any vote on Palestinian membership.Yes we are both working, and truthfully, on both sides to have a bloc of countries that basically would say ladies and gentlemen go back to direct negotiations, sit down and talk this thing with each other,the ambassador told reporters.The Palestinians are also sending high level delegations to council members such as Gabon, Bosnia and Nigeria.

Ashton shows pro-Palestinian side at EU parliament
Today SEPT 28,11 @ 09:16 By Andrew Rettman


EU foreign relations chief Catherine Ashton showed her pro-Palestinian sympathies at the European Parliament on Tuesday (27 September) as MEPs get set to back the UN upgrade.She began the meeting in Strasbourg with a formal statement against Israel's new decision to build 1,100 Jewish housing units on Palestinian land at its Gilo settlement.This plan should be reversed. Settlement activity threatens the viability of an agreed two-state solution and runs contrary to the Israeli stated commitment to resume negotiations, she said.She later added on a personal note: I have condemned settlement activity every time it was announced - I have made six statements this year, plus one Quartet [a joint EU, Russia, UN and US body] statement plus the comment today ... Each time I have met him [Israeli leader Benjamin Netanyahu] I have told him settlements are illegal under international law.

She also praised Palestinian leaders Mahmoud Abbas and Salam Fayyad: They are people who hold the values we hold dear in their hearts. They believe in the values we hold ... I believe Israel could do no better than negotiate with them.Pro-Israeli countries such as the Netherlands have said Ashton is not a neutral broker in talks on whether the EU should back Palestine's bid to join the UN. Her own officials say she was deeply affected by Palestinian hardships on recent visits to Gaza and the West Bank.MEPs will on Thursday vote on a draft resolution which says the EU assembly: Supports and calls on member states to be united in addressing the legitimate demand of the Palestinian people to be represented as a state at the United Nations.The text already has the backing of the socialist, liberal, green and far-left groups. The language is designed to accommodate various opinions - socialists say Palestine should get full UN membership, while liberals say they should become a non-member state.The biggest group, the centre-right EPP, is still making up its mind. But senior EPP figures, such as German deputy Hans-Gert Poettering and Dutch member Ria Oomen-Ruijten, spoke up for Palestine in the plenary debate.Meanwhile, EU countries have voiced clear divisions at the UN in New York over the past week. Ten (Belgium, Finland, France, Greece, Ireland, Luxembourg, Malta, Portugal, Spain and Sweden) are on the pro-upgrade side. Five (Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Italy, Romania and the UK) have indicated they would vote No. The rest are keeping quiet.Provocative of Israel to announce new settlements in East Jerusalem now. Clearly contrary to Middle East peace Quartet demand, Swedish foreign minister Carl Bldt tweeted on Tuesday.For his part, Netanyahu in an interview with the Jerusalem Post the same day showed little interest in what the EU thinks. We plan in Jerusalem. We build in Jerusalem. Period. The same way Israeli governments have been doing for years - since the end of the 1967 war,he said.

DANIEL 7:23-24
23 Thus he said, The fourth beast(THE EU,REVIVED ROME) shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth,(7TH WORLD EMPIRE) which shall be diverse from all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces.(TRADE BLOCKS)
24 And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise:(10 NATIONS-10 WORLD REGIONS) and another shall rise after them;(#11 SPAIN) and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings.(BE HEAD OF 3 KINGS OR NATIONS).

Parliament approves economic governance six-pack
Today SEPT 28,11 @ 17:43 By Leigh Phillips


After almost a year since the European Commission first proposed a package of laws radically centralising economic decision-making in the European Union, the legislative process approving the so-called ‘six-pack’ of bills has finally come to an end with the European Parliament giving its assent on Wednesday (28 September).

Aiming to prevent future sovereign debt crises, the six-pack gives the European Commission new powers to slap fines on countries that flout rules on racking up high public debts and deficits.The parliament emerged largely victorious in its battle with the member states, and in particular France, to give the EU executive the power to impose sanctions that can only be blocked by a majority of votes amongst eurozone states.A majority of MEPs in the conservative-dominated chamber worried that requiring approval by the Council before warnings could be issued to a country would lead to back-room deals in which countries needing to reform their budgetary policies would be let off the hook.In the end, a country warning will be issued if a vote in the Council is not taken within 10 days of a commission notice. If the Council decides to overturn the commission’s decision, they will now have to appear before the European Parliament and defend their rejection in public.The chamber also won the right to request the presence of finance ministers from countries that have received a warning to a dressing down in the parliament.The vote in the full sitting of the chamber however was close, as parties on the left voted against or abstained on some aspects of the package, believing there to be insufficient balance between market requirements and social needs.The left however did win a victory via the parliament’s insistence that the commission consider not merely countries with high trade deficits, but also those running current-account surpluses.Germany and the Netherlands have crowed that such imbalances result from their successful economic management and should not need investigation. However, some economists argue that the core of Europe has engaged in mercantilist policies that are the flip-side of heavy debts in the eurozone periphery and are every bit as dangerous.

The president of the parliament, conservative Polish MEP Jerzy Buzek cheered the result, declaring: We have developed a powerful and resistant armour against any future crisis,Liberal MEP Sylvie Goulard, one of the deputies to shepherd the legislation through the house, said that the bloc needed to go further still in terms of economic integration.This is not the end of the story. We will need to take further steps. But we have built a new system with this package today which will allow the EU institutions to work better together and will increase transparency, she said.The Socialists spokesman for economic affairs, Udo Bullmann, said that the vote today would have drastic consequences for European citizens.We think there exists another path out of the crisis. The reform is an austerity pact ... that leaves no margin of manoeuvre for EU states for intelligent spending and targeted investment. Some 78 civil society organisations including anti-poverty NGOs and trade unions issued an open letter on Wednesday denouncing the moves as anti-democratic.The proposals will enable EU institutions to make decisions on member states' budgets, economic policy priorities as well as on labour and social rights with little democratic debate, or accountability, the signatories, including France’s CGT union, UK-based Tax Justice Network and Attac Denmark, to the letter said.

EU hushes talk of multi-trillion bail-out ahead of German vote Today SEPT 28,11 @ 09:29 By Leigh Phillips

European politicians are trying to avoid too much talk of a multi-trillion-euro revamp of the eurozone’s crisis strategy ahead of a crunch vote in the German parliament, with the German finance minister denying plans for such an increase to the bail-out fund and French ministers saying it is necessary to stay quiet until after the vote.On Tuesday, German finance minister Wolfgang Schaeuble told N-TV: We do not intend to increase it, and separately called such moves stupid.I don't understand how anyone in the European Commission can have such a stupid idea. The result would be to endanger the AAA sovereign debt ratings of other member states. It makes no sense, he said.It is understood that European leaders are considering a plan to leverage the European Financial Stability Fund via the European Central Bank. The sums mentioned are in the range of €2 trillion, although sources have told EUobserver, the figures are still in flux and that more than one option is on the table.Meanwhile, changes strengthening the EFSF agreed by eurozone leaders in July have yet to be approved by the Bundestag. A vote is scheduled for Thursday.

French finance minister Francois Baroin for his part said that a public discussion of the issue could not happen before Germany votes

It is out of the question to put forward, three days from the Bundestag (lower house) vote, the issue of whether we should increase the fund, he said.Let's not open Pandora's box on something that is a red flag for Germany.Meanwhile, Prime Minister Francois Fillon told the French parliament that plans to tackle speculative attacks would be unveiled after the German vote.A straw poll amongst MPs from German Chancellor Angela Merkel’s CDU and sister party in the CSU group in the chamber showed how tight the vote could be.Some 11 MPs voted against moves to alter the EFSF’s rules, according to a report from Reuters, while two abstained. The news agency quoted unnamed sources that predicted between two and five nays from the coalition’s Free Democrat junior partner and a further six abstentions. If 19 deputies vote against or abstain, Merkel will have to depend on opposition Social Democrat and Green votes, a development that could fatally wound the Merkel administration.Separately, Greek Prime Minister George Papandreou travelled to Berlin to meet with his German counterpart and delivered a rousing speech to German industrial leaders in an attempt to rally spirits in the key European economy.I promise you, we Greeks will soon fight our way back to growth and prosperity after this period of pain,he told the Federation of German Industries.The eurozone must now take bold steps toward fiscal integration to stabilise the monetary union. Let's not allow those who are betting against the euro to succeed,he said.Merkel for her part stressed that Berlin will not abandon Athens: We will provide all the help desired from the German side so that Greece regains trust.If the stability of the euro is at stake - and the experience of the last few years shows that the difficulties of one country endanger our common currency – then that obliges us to show solidarity within the common currency.We want a strong Greece in the eurozone… Germany is ready to give all the help that is required.

Iran plans to send ships close to US waters: report
AFPAFP – Tue, Sep 27, 2011


Iran's navy is going to deploy ships close to US territorial waters, its commander in chief was quoted as saying on Tuesday.As the global oppression (the US) is present not far from our maritime border ... our navy is going to have a strong presence not far from US territorial waters, the Irna news agency quoted Admiral Habibollah Sayyari as saying.On July 19 Sayyari also said that Iran was going to send a flotilla into the Atlantic.The remarks come as another high-ranking Iranian appeared to reject a recent US request to establish a red phone link between the countries to avoid unwanted confrontation between their armed forces in the Gulf region.When we are in the Gulf of Mexico, we will establish direct contact with the United States, Ali Fadavi, commander of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps Navy, was quoted in press reports as saying.In the view of the Islamic Republic of Iran, the presence of the US in the Persian Gulf is illegitimate and makes no sense.The Iranian navy has been developing its presence in international waters since last year, regularly launching vessels in the Indian Ocean and the Gulf of Aden to protect Iranian ships from Somali pirates operating in the area.Iran also sent two ships into the Mediterranean for the first time in February, via the Suez Canal, to the annoyance of Israel and the United States.And in July, leaders announced that a Kilo class submarine had completed an inaugural mission in the southern Indian Ocean and the Red Sea.

Iran says it delivers new cruise missiles to navy
APBy ALI AKBAR DAREINI - Associated Press | AP – SEPT 28,11


TEHRAN, Iran (AP) — Iran said Wednesday it has begun large-scale production of a domestically-developed cruise missile designed for sea-based targets and capable of destroying warships.Defense Minister Gen. Ahmad Vahidi said an unspecified number of the missiles, called Ghader, or Capable in Farsi, were delivered to the Iranian military and the powerful Revolutionary Guard's naval division, which is assigned to protect Iran's sea borders.Vahidi said the missile, which has a range of 124 miles (200 kilometers), can travel at low altitudes and "can sink giant warships. The comments appeared to suggest that the new missile could potentially counter the U.S. naval presence in the Persian Gulf.The West is already concerned about Iran's military capabilities, especially the implications of the country's disputed nuclear program. The U.S. and some of its allies, and as the U.N. nuclear agency, the International Atomic Energy Agency, fear that Iran is trying to produce a nuclear weapon. Tehran denies the charges.Iran's growing arsenal includes short and medium range ballistic missiles that are capable of hitting targets in the region such as Israel and U.S. military bases in the Gulf.Iran frequently makes announcements about new advances in military technology that cannot be independently verified.Iran began a military self-sufficiency program in 1992, under which it produces a large range of weapons, including tanks, missiles, jet fighters, unmanned drone aircraft and torpedoes.

EU pushes for global financial trading tax
APBy PAN PYLAS - AP Business Writer | AP – SEPT 28,11


LONDON (AP) — Taxing financial trades has been touted as a panacea for all kinds of global ills, a cash source to fight poverty and global warming. But the latest European attempt to introduce a worldwide standard 40 years after it was first conceived is facing stiff opposition from the U.S. and Britain.Jose Manuel Barroso, the president of the EU's executive arm, on Wednesday threw his weight behind the tax that his office estimated could raise euro57 billion ($77 billion) a year in Europe to help combat a debt crisis that is threatening the euro currency.In the last three years, member states have granted aid and provided guarantees of euro4.6 trillion to the financial sector,Barroso said.It is time for the financial sector to make a contribution back to society.The tax would be a tiny percentage of the value of a trade in assets like stocks and bonds. Although some countries already have a minimal duty on share trading, the new proposal would not only increase the scope and size of the tax but also siphon off some revenue to Brussels.The European Commission has formally backed the tax to take effect from January 2014.As a result of the financial crisis in 2008 and the ensuing recession, debt levels across Europe, and not just in the bailed out countries of Greece, Ireland and Portugal, have risen sharply. Across the 27-nation EU, debt as a percentage of national income has spiked from below 60 percent in 2007 to 80 percent this year.

Though the tax could dent growth and employment, it has won a fair degree of support across the 17-country eurozone, including France and Germany, the EU's two biggest economies.Britain, however, has been adamantly against it unless it is used on a global basis. Its opinion carries weight in the debate because London is the continent's biggest financial center.The argument made by the likes of George Osborne, Britain's finance chief, and echoed last week by his counterpart in the U.S. Timothy Geithner is that the tax just won't work if it's not introduced globally. If it's not, investors can move money quickly to where the tax doesn't need to be paid, saving themselves potentially large sums of money in financial trades.Howard Wheeldon, a senior strategist at BGC Partners, said it's a bad idea to have a trades tax now, especially since many banks are still trying to meet new requirements to beef up capital buffers.The timing is inappropriate; it's something to look at in a few years time, Wheeldon said.Even if Britain and the U.S. decide to opt out, it is possible that the eurozone countries, or at least some of them, may go it alone.I think the eurozone or number of member states would go ahead and do it, and would start it at a low enough level to answer political objections,said Sony Kapoor, managing director of Re-Define, an economic think tank.Some activists campaigning for the tax worry the money may be used solely to fix the world's financial difficulties. They say a large chunk of the revenues should be used for other important issues, such as reducing poverty or fighting global warming.Oxfam International, a long-time proponent of the tax, lauded the European Commission's support ahead of the October 17-18 summit of EU leaders and the Group of 20 meeting of the leaders from the top industrial and developing nations.

The financial transaction tax is moving from rhetoric to reality but a significant part of the revenues should be used as Bill Gates suggested, to help poor countries facing chilling reductions in aid, trade, and investment — not just shore up the EU budget,said Nicolas Mombrial, Oxfam International's EU policy advisor. The multibillionaire Microsoft founder has been commissioned by the G-20 to produce a report on development financing and is considering the potential of the tax.Oxfam's Mombrial also argues that the rate of the tax should be higher than the 0.1 percent levy on shares and bonds proposed by the EU.It's clear that higher rates are perfectly feasible and would raise more money to tackle poverty, Mombrial said, noting that a 0.5 percent tax already applies to share trades in the U.K.The motivations behind the tax are a long way from the designs of Nobel Prize laureate James Tobin, who first made his proposal for the flat tax on currency transactions in the early 1970s when U.S. President Richard Nixon ended the dollar's convertibility to gold and effectively brought an end to the global currency system that had prevailed since World War II.Tobin said at the time that the tax would help limit instability arising from a world of floating exchange rates.Financial transaction taxes, appropriately designed, can not only raise substantial revenue but also enhance stability by discouraging destabilizing trading that serves little economic purpose,Re-Define's Kapoor said.

German MPs back euro crisis powers ReutersBy Stephen Brown and Madeline Chambers | Reuters – SEPT 29,11

BERLIN (Reuters) - Germany's parliament approved new powers for the euro zone's crisis fund on Thursday but it was not clear if Angela Merkel got enough votes from her coalition to silence rebels worried about funding a series of bailouts of countries like Greece.Support from the opposition meant there had been no doubt Germany would okay new powers for the European Financial Stability Facility (EFSF), which some countries like Finland have ratified but others, including Slovakia, are disputing.The Bundestag's (lower house of parliament) deputy speaker Wolfgang Thierse said 523 lawmakers had voted for the bill, 85 against with only three had abstentions.If a breakdown of votes expected take up to an hour more shows the bill only got through thanks to the center-left opposition, it would undermine the conservative chancellor's ability to pilot fresh measures to combat the euro crisis.

Merkel had tried to assure her coalition that taxpayers' money would not be wasted by supporting bailout measures -- but she could not rule out that the money might be written off if, as financial markets increasingly fear, Greece defaults.Germany will shoulder up to 211 billion euros of the fund's 440 billion euros worth of guarantees, but critics fear it is already clear this will not be enough and taxpayers will be asked for more.That impression was reinforced by talk at the International Monetary Fund last weekend of the need to beef up the EFSF even more -- on top of the extra powers decided by European leaders in July -- by leveraging its capital and bring forward the permanent scheme supposed to replace it in mid-2013.Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble told the Bundestag (lower house of parliament) in a fiery debate before the vote it was indecent to speculate at this point about Germany being asked to contribute more to the EFSF.We're borrowing money from our children to put in a showcase and it is money that we don't have, said one rebel in Merkel's Christian Democratic Union (CDU), Klaus-Peter Willsch.

RESCUE THE EURO OR THE FDP

Merkel is often accused in Europe and at home of dithering on the euro crisis and if she did not win the EFSF vote on her own terms, it would damage her hopes of taking the conservative bloc she has led for 11 years into the next elections in 2013.
International auditors return to Athens on Thursday to deliver their verdict on whether Greece's tougher austerity measures qualify for further aid.The chancellor has told Greece she wants to wait for the results of an audit by the troika of the European Union, European Central Bank and IMF to see whether its findings tell us we will have to renegotiate or not.Such talk by Merkel and other German officials may refer to raising the level of private creditor involvement in the Greek bailout, by getting them to accept bigger potential losses -- or haircuts -- on their Greek sovereign bond investments.Senior coalition figures like Economy Minister Philipp Roesler, head of Merkel's Free Democrat (FDP) partners, have already said an orderly Greek default should not be taboo.With a core of naysayers in the CDU, its Bavarian allies the CSU and the FDP, the vote was being scrutinized to see how close Merkel got to a convincing 311 yes votes from her own bloc in the 620-seat Bundestag.If there are more than 19 rebels, Merkel will have passed the EFSF thanks to the center-left opposition and may have to rethink how to address growing discontent among her supporters and the population at large about the euro zone debt crisis.

Sentiment remains divided. Even though labor unions called on MPs to back the measure, the conservatives' Mittelstand small business alliance had urged MPs to vote no.The opposition Social Democrats (SPD) and Greens have won a run of state elections this year and, with two more votes in coming months on the second Greek bailout and a permanent mechanism to succeed the EFSF, portray themselves as defenders of the single currency.With the FDP's popularity sliding to just 2 percent in some recent polls and state elections, and the party increasingly critical of euro zone bailouts, it often appears more of a liability than an asset for Merkel.In the end, the chancellor will have to decide: either she wants to rescue the euro or the FDP, said former SPD foreign minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier of the SPD to Bild newspaper.

Barroso attacks member states, US, banks
Today SEPT 28,11 @ 14:11 By Leigh Phillips


The president of the European Commission has mounted a blistering attack on the leadership of EU member states and the way they have attempted to solve what he called the greatest challenge Europe has faced in its history.In a tub-thumping speech to the European Parliament in Strasbourg pummelling the US, the Council of Ministers’ approach to the crisis and the financial industry, President Jose Manuel Barroso was repeatedly interrupted by loud applause from MEPs.We must be absolutely honest and clear in the analysis of the state of the Union, he said.We are now facing the greatest challenge our Union has ever seen, I believe in its history.He said that in the face of earthquakes that shake the international order, Europe is threatened by a crisis of confidence in our leaders in general, of Europe itself, our ability to find solutions, and warned of the danger of countries leaving the EU and the return of nationalism.Referencing the approaching centenary of the start of the First World War and the dark period that followed, Barroso lambasted what in EU and academic circles is known as intergovernentalism, or a form of European lawmaking that takes place essentially between government leaders and diplomats.The term may appear obscure to ordinary citizens, but since the earliest days of European integration more than five decades ago, the battle between intergovernmentalism and the so-called community method, which would rather privilege the powers of the European institutions and in particular the European Commission over those of national governments.The European Council and the Council of Minsters, which represent the member states is the home of this approach, a way of doing business that Barroso said could be the death of a united Europe.The reality today is that intergovernmental co-operation is not sufficient to get Europe out of this crisis, to give Europe a future. On the contrary, a intergovernmentalism may lead to the re-nationalization and fragmentation,he said.

He argued that it is no longer just the dream of supporters of a European federation - a much deeper level of integration than currently exists - but the markets that are demanding a unification of Europe.We must go further. We need to complete our monetary union with an economic union,he said.It was an illusion to think that we could have a common currency and a single market with national approaches to economic and budgetary policy. Let's avoid another illusion that we can have a common currency and a single market with an intergovernmental approach.The parliament on Wednesday voted in favour of a far-reaching package of six pieces of legislation that the president last year called a silent revolution in European integration. But even as this legislation is set to be enacted, Barroso said Europe needs to go further, and that the commission will be unveiling proposals on deeper economic centralisation in the coming weeks.He championed the commission as the hero of the piece, the economic government of the Union.We need more than ever the independent authority of the commission, which proposes and assesses actions that the member states should take, he continued. Governments, let's be frank, cannot do this by themselves. Nor can this be done by negotiations between governments.The commission is the guarantor of fairness.The president said that it may be necessary to change the EU treaties and abolish unanimous decision-making in the bloc entirely.

It may be necessary to consider further changes to the treaty, he said.I am also thinking particularly of the constraint of unanimity. The pace of our joint endeavour cannot be dictated by the slowest.Today we have a Union where it is the slowest member that dictates the speed of all the other member states ... A member state does not have the right to block the moves of others, the others also have their national sovereignty and if they want to go further, they should go further.He also announced a series of specific measures that the bloc needed to take to solve the ongoing sovereign debt crisis, including the need for a strengthening of mechanisms for crisis resolution with credible firepower and effective firewalls for the euro - hinting at the massive expansion of the bloc’s rescue resources into the trillions of euros, a plan understood to be currently in the works.Barroso called for an acceleration into force of the European Stability Mechanism, the replacement for the current rescue fund scheduled to go online in 2013.As already trailed, he also said that Brussels will present options in the next few weeks for stability bonds, a twist on the calls for from many quarters for eurobonds, or the issuance of debt at the European level. The move is steadfastly opposed by Germany, which fears a rise in its borrowing costs were such a mechanism to materialise.The commission will as well unveil proposals before the end of the year on new rules for credit rating agencies, bank resolution and personal responsibility of financial operatives.

He moved on from his skewering of European capitals to censure foreign governments for their criticisms in recent weeks of Europe’s ability to manage its crisis. US President Barack Obama and US treasury secretary Timothy Geithner have repeatedly pummeled the EU for its dithering.I feel hurt when I see some in other parts of the world, the patronising way they say to us Europeans, what we need to do. I think frankly that we have problems, very serious problems, but I think we do not have to apologise for our democracies. We need not apologise for our social market economy, he said, in a veiled reference to the American criticisms.He called on national EU governments to find in themselves a burst of pride to be European, a burst of dignity and to say our partners Thanks for your advice, but we can all overcome this crisis. I have this pride in being European.The conservative politician renowned for his youth in revolutionary Portugal as a far-left firebrand, rounded out his barbs by laying into the banking sector, using the occasion to announce that the commission had on Wednesday adopted a proposal for a tax on financial transactions, a plan bitterly opposed by the UK.In the last three years, member states - I should say taxpayers - have granted aid and provided guarantees of €4.6 trillion to the financial sector. It is time for the financial sector to make a contribution back to society, adding that in some member states they do pay their fair share.It is a question of fairness. If our farmers, if our workers, if all the sectors of the economy from industry to agriculture to services, if they all pay a contribution to the society also the banking sector should make a contribution to the society.
Calling the current crisis a trial by fire for our entire generation, he said that Europe nevertheless does have a future.Some say it is very difficult, it is not possible. Here I recall the words of a great man, a great African, Nelson Mandela: It always seems impossible, until it is done. Let's do it.. We can do it with confidence, we can do - the renewal of our Europe.

The European Union in crisis; Will it survive?
APBy DON MELVIN - Associated Press | AP – SEPT 28,11


BRUSSELS (AP) — Until recently, the idea that the 27-nation European Union might disintegrate would have been unthinkable, for uniting a continent ripped apart by two World Wars was considered a rousing diplomatic success.But the EU's two most cherished achievements — a common currency and the free movement of people across borders — are under threat. And the possibility that the decades-long experiment that is the EU might not survive in its present form has now entered mainstream debate.The Polish finance minister, Jacek Rostowski, has raised the prospect that the EU might split apart. German Chancellor Angela Merkel said if its common currency, the euro, failed, so too would Europe itself. And experts say the euro's stability is by no means assured: George Osborne, the British chancellor, has said that only a few weeks remain to save it.On Wednesday, Jose Manuel Barroso, the president of the European Commission, the EU's executive arm, described the state of the union in unusually stark terms. The EU, he said, was facing the biggest challenge since its creation.We're in a crucial moment in history, he said.If we do not move forward with more unification, we will suffer more fragmentation.None of these officials is predicting the EU's demise. But it is a measure of the gravity of situation that they are discussing the possibility at all.Since the 1950s, the strengthening of European integration had seem slow and fitful, but also inexorable. In 1951, six countries formed the European Coal and Steel Community. In 1957, they established the European Economic Community.In 1985, the Schengen Agreement was signed with the aim of abolishing checks at the borders between member countries. In 2002, the switch from national currencies to the euro went off without a hitch — and 17 nations now share the common currency.Over time, the EU has grown from six countries to 27, and currently it is home to more than 500 million people.

The challenge now is how to manage a currency that covers 17 countries, and a borderless travel area of 25 — including some nations outside the EU — without strong central governance. As the EU is currently run, decisions must be approved unanimously, meaning a single country can block action.That's why Finland can throw a wrench into the Greek bailout negotiations and why the Netherlands has been able to block Serbian entrance into the group.Without clearer rules, the EU will have to dramatically scale back its ambitions, says Karel Lannoo, the head of the Brussels-based Center for European Policy Studies.It needs to be much more consistent in the way it works as a federal structure, he said Wednesday, citing the U.S. model where the hierarchy between states and the federal government is well-defined.As it is, he said, some EU countries simply do not accept rules they do not like.That same point was made by Barroso in his state of the union speech Wednesday to the European Parliament in Strasbourg, France, when he pleaded for stronger central governance and decried the constraint of unanimity.The pace of our joint endeavor cannot be dictated by the slowest, he said.These constraints have meant that European officials have consistently reacted more slowly and less decisively to the euro crisis than financial markets would have liked, exacerbating the situation and throwing the future of the euro in doubt. And when countries did not follow EU rules on budget deficits, contributing to the euro debt crisis, no federal structure sanctioned them.Lannoo, the policy analyst, said he was rather pessimistic about the survival of the euro. But he does not agree that the collapse of the euro would mean the collapse of the European Union. It could continue, he says, maybe with fewer members as a free trade zone with common rules but no common currency.Paul de Grauwe, an economics professor and EU expert at the Catholic University of Leuven in Belgium, says the EU faces a stark choice.

One road is more integration to save the project, to save the Schengen zone and the monetary union, de Grauwe said.But there is a lot of opposition. It's also possible that we take the other road, no further integration, and then we risk the collapse of these two experiments.British Foreign Secretary William Hague of the Conservative party, a longtime Euro-skeptic, says the euro was doomed from the start. Britain, which united with other European nations in 1973, never did join the euro and has no plans to now.It was folly to create this system, it will be written about for centuries as a kind of historical monument to collective folly. But it's there and we have to deal with it, Hague was quoted as saying Wednesday in The Spectator magazine.I described the euro as a burning building with no exits and so it has proved for some of the countries in it, he said.The European Union was created out of the ashes of World War II: Its initial goal was to use economic integration to prevent Europe from ever going to war with itself again. By that measure it has succeeded admirably — and for that reason, some politicians greatly fear its demise.

The game is not only about the well-being of this generation or the next generation, but is goes without saying we're also fighting for the safety of this and future generations, said Rostowski, the Polish finance minister. It is difficult to imagine Europe to be as safe as it is now without the European Union.But Barroso, having first raised the specter of fragmentation, told lawmakers he was confident that Europe would summon the political will to survive.I tell you, yes, it is possible to get out of this crisis,he said.Not only is it possible, it's necessary.David Stringer contributed from London.Don Melvin can be reached at http://twitter.com/Don_Melvin

Philippines repairs after typhoon kills 21 AP By HRVOJE HRANJSKI and JIM GOMEZ, Associated Press – Wed Sep 28, 8:07 am ET

MANILA, Philippines – Forecasters sounded alarms over a new storm headed for the Philippines Wednesday, even as workers repaired seawalls demolished by a typhoon that killed at least 21 people and left scores stranded in swamped communities.
Typhoon Nesat also left 35 people missing and brought some of downtown Manila's worst flooding in decades before blowing out of the northern Philippines early Wednesday toward southern China with winds of 75 mph (120 kph).Floodwaters were receding in most places, but many low-lying communities in the north remained in crisis.Mayor Santiago Austria of the rice-farming town of Jaen in Nueva Ecija province appealed to the government for help, saying many people in his community of 63,000 needed to be rescued but that officials there had only four rescue boats.

Many people here are still on top of their houses. We don't have enough boats to reach them and hand them food, Austria said.Civil Defense Office chief Benito Ramos said army troops were on their way to assist Jaen.The town of Obando, north of Manila, remained under waist-high water and officials had not yet been able to check on reports of houses swept away on two nearby islands where thousands of residents live, Mayor Orencio Gabriel said.In all, 320,000 people were affected by the storm, with 73,000 in evacuation centers and about 100 still stranded, officials said.
Meanwhile, a fresh tropical storm was brewing in the Pacific, government forecaster Bobby Javier said, adding that it already had sustained winds of 52 mph (85 kph) and gusts up to 62 mph (100 kph) and was expected to strengthen significantly before hitting major parts of the country in the next few days.Ramos said disaster agencies were being kept on full alert because of the new storm.In Manila, hundreds of workers used cranes to lay sandbags where parts of a downtown seawall were ripped off by the typhoon's huge waves and fierce winds. Residents made repairs to nearly 5,000 houses damaged in the storm.Scavengers rummaged through household items carried by the floodwaters — footwear, a basketball, a child's school bag, a hunter's hat. Mar Depas, 28, said he collected about a dozen fairly new leather shoes and sandals but was disappointed that they didn't match.I can't find their pairs. They're useless, Depas said.I came late ... most of the better recyclable stuff is gone.Typhoon Nesat had unleashed torrents of floodwaters Tuesday that swamped Manila's downtown areas, rapidly engulfing hotels, a hospital, the U.S. Embassy, business offices and several blocks of residential areas in waist-deep floodwaters.Power was gradually restored Wednesday to Manila's downtown area, which strewn with trash and fallen bamboo pieces washed ashore by storm surges. City trains resumed operations.Associated Press writer Oliver Teves contributed to this report.

New Forecast: Sun's Superstorms' Could Doom Satellites SPACE.com Charles Q. Choi, SPACE.com Contributor Space.com – Wed Sep 28, 12:00 pm ET

Magnetic storms set off by the sun could pose a bigger threat than thought to weather, communication, military and other satellites close to Earth, with a potentially devastating economic impact, scientists suggest.In the new study, researchers found that solar radiation can energize a belt of high-energy particles that surrounds Earth more dramatically than previously believed.The study focused on the possible effects of a particularly strong magnetic storm on the Van Allen radiation belts, the dangerous rings of high-energy particles that girdle the Earth. The belts are split into two distinct zones. The outer belt, which is made up of electrons, reaches from about 15,800 to 31,600 miles (25,500 to 51,000 kilometers) above the surface, while the inner belt, which consists of a mix of electrons and protons, reaches from about 4,000 to 8,000 miles (6,400 to 12,800 km) above. [Stunning Photos of Solar Flares & Sun Storms]Scientists had known the outer belt could become far more intense during geomagnetic storms caused by high-energy particles spewed by the sun, such as the storm that supercharged Earth's northern lights display Monday night (Sept. 26). However, they have long thought such storms do not affect the inner belt.Now computer simulations suggest that during a superstorm — which has occurred in the past and is likely to recur in the future ? the electrons in the inner belt, too, could become energized. Near-Earth radiation could then remain dramatically more intense for several years afterward.

The increase in radiation in the inner zone may last for up to a decade and continue damaging satellites for years after a very strong storm, study lead author Yuri Shprits, a space physicist at the University of California, Los Angeles, told SPACE.com.This radiation would damage satellites in that zone and potentially cut their lifetimes by five-sixths or more. [Related: Space Radiation to Rise for Astronauts, Airline Passengers]It would not destroy all satellites at once, Shprits said. However, at least according to our calculations, a very strong storm can increase the radiation dose in the inner zone by a factor of 10, and within a few years we may lose a significant portion of the satellites that traverse the inner zone.In terms of new strategies that might be needed to protect satellite systems, it's hard to say, Shprits said. First of all, we need to estimate risks and estimate cost. If cost is too high, we may want to accept the risks and start getting ready to replenish the fleet in the case of such event.There are a number of rather expensive strategies that can be used to mitigate the risk, including redundancy in electronics and increased shielding, he added.Zero risk means infinite cost.Two missions to study the radiation belts are planned for 2012, Shprits noted: NASA's Radiation Belt Storm Probe will observe radiation belts in the equatorial plane, while Moscow State University's LOMONOSOV mission, with UCLA-built instruments on board, will observe radiation belts at low altitudes.The scientists detailed their findings online in the Aug. 25 issue of the journal Space Weather.Follow SPACE.com contributor Charles Q.

Stocks drop, led by commodities on economic fear
ReutersBy Edward Krudy | Reuters – SEPT 28,11


NEW YORK (Reuters) - Commodity-related stocks drove Wall Street lower on Wednesday as stiff declines in energy and metals prices underscored investor concerns about global economic weakness and Europe's raging debt crisis.A sharp 7 percent dive in the price of copper, seen as a leading indicator for the economy, rattled investors and led to a drop of 4.5 percent in the S&P materials index. Freeport-McMoRan Copper & Gold Inc fell 7.3 percent to $32.29.Investors were on a knife edge as inspectors from the EU and IMF headed to Greece to scrutinize austerity plans while German Chancellor Angela Merkel worked to defuse a revolt within her government ahead of a vote to expand Europe's bailout fund on Thursday.Wednesday's declines put the S&P 500 on course for its worst quarter since the high noon of the financial crisis in the fourth quarter of 2008. The drop also illustrates how sensitive the market has become to news on Europe's troubles.There is certainly a lot of headline risk and a lot of weak hands that hold stocks after this big rally we've had in the last three days, said Robert Francello, head of equity trading for Apex Capital, a hedge fund in San Francisco.Traders who have either gotten long during the rally or covered their shorts are probably going just to flatten themselves out, either taking profits or getting out of the market,he said.Brent crude resumed its downward trend, falling more than $3 in afternoon trade, sending an S&P index of energy stocks down 3 percent. Chevron fell 1.9 percent to $91.74.News early in the afternoon that bans on short-selling stocks in France, Italy and Spain have been extended highlighted the regulatory risk faced by investors and increased selling pressure.The Dow Jones industrial average dropped 179.79 points, or 1.61 percent, to 11,010.90. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index dropped 24.32 points, or 2.07 percent, to 1,151.06. The Nasdaq Composite Index dropped 55.25 points, or 2.17 percent, to 2,491.58.

Traders said volume would likely be light and market movements accentuated during the rest of the quarter due to the Jewish New Year holiday of Rosh Hashanah.So far, the S&P 500 has fallen 12.8 percent this quarter, its worst decline since the fourth quarter of 2008 when it fell 22.6 percent.In the commodities sector, Cliffs Natural Resources Inc sank 8.4 percent to $55.66. Gold prices fell more than 2 percent.It's fear of a global slowdown, said Wayne Kaufman, chief market analyst at John Thomas Financial in New York.It's a pure flight to safety into the dollar here, and that's killing commodities.A push to solidify a euro-zone rescue fund and alleviate the region's sovereign debt crisis lifted stocks on Tuesday for a third consecutive session, following four straight days of losses for the benchmark S&P 500. The S&P gained more than 4 percent over that three-day period.Amazon.com Inc gained 2.5 percent to $229.71 after it unveiled a new tablet computer with a $199 price tag. Apple Inc, which makes the popular iPad tablet, fell 0.6 percent to $397.01.
Microsoft Corp dipped 0.4 percent to $25.58 after Samsung Electronics Co Ltd unveiled software pacts with the company.In earnings news, Jabil Circuit Inc advanced 8.2 percent to $18.81 a day after reporting fourth-quarter earnings that beat expectations, while Family Dollar Stores Inc fell 1.6 percent to $53.31 after its results.In economic news, orders for long-lasting U.S. manufactured goods slipped in August on weak demand for motor vehicles, but a rebound in a gauge of business spending suggested the economy would avoid another recession.About five stocks fell for every one that rose on both the New York Stock Exchange and the Nasdaq. About 7.96 billion shares traded on the New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange and Nasdaq, in line with this year's average.(Reporting by Edward Krudy; Additional reporting by Caroline Valetkevitch; Editing by Jan Paschal)

Bernanke says Fed would act if inflation falls
ReutersBy Kim Palmer | Reuters – SEPT 28,11


CLEVELAND (Reuters) - Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke said on Wednesday the central bank might need to ease monetary policy further if inflation or inflation expectations fall significantly.In his first public remarks since the Fed launched a fresh measured aimed at keeping down long-term borrowing costs, Bernanke indicated a willingness to push deeper into the realm of unconventional policy if economic growth remains anemic.It is something that we're going to be watching very carefully, Bernanke said in response to questions from the audience at a forum sponsored by the Cleveland Fed.If inflation falls too low or inflation expectations fall too low, that would be something we have to respond to because we do not want deflation, Bernanke said.The comment was made in response to a question about a recent decline in market-based inflation expectations, which policymakers see as a good gauge of future inflation trends.The gap between yields on 10-year Treasury notes and their inflation-protected counterparts fell to 1.70 percent last week, the lowest since September 2010. It has edged up slightly since then and last stood at 1.86 percent.In an effort to stanch the deepest recession in generations and help the recovery, the Fed not only slashed benchmark interest rates to effectively zero, but also more than tripled its balance sheet to around $2.9 trillion.Despite these measures, growth has remained quite soft, averaging less than 1 percent on an annual basis in the first half of the year. Bernanke signaled he remains concerned about risks to the economy, which the Fed described as significant in its September policy statement.We have a lot of problems both in terms of recovery and in terms of longer-term growth, he said.

A TWIST ON HOUSING

Last week, the Fed said it will sell $400 billion in short-term Treasury securities and invest them into longer-dated ones to try to put downward pressure on borrowing costs over a longer period.Investors have dubbed the program Operation Twist after a similar measure undertaken by the Fed in the 1960s. The central bank will also renew its help to the housing finance sector by reinvesting maturing mortgage bonds in its portfolio back into that market.Bernanke called for the U.S. government to beef up its assistance to the ailing housing sector, the epicenter of the 2008 financial meltdown.Some strong housing policies to help the housing market recovery would clearly be very useful and would allow the monetary policy actions of the Fed ... to have more effect and to help the economy recovery more strongly, Bernanke said.

Asked about the fate of fallen mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, Bernanke reiterated his view that the mortgage market remains too weak to allow the government to try to privatize the government-sponsored entities.The Fed's latest monetary easing did not have unanimous support within the Federal Open Market Committee, which sets monetary policy.Three regional central bank presidents dissented against the move. Kansas City Fed President Thomas Hoenig, who does not have a vote on the committee this year but has been a vocal opponent of the Fed's unconventional policies, took a parting shot at the central bank's actions on Wednesday.When you encourage consumption by inhibiting your interest rates from rising to their equilibrium level, you will in fact buy problems, and we have, in fact, bought problems,said Hoenig, who is due to retire on October 1, in his last speech in office.(Reporting by Kim Palmer, Pedro da Costa and David Lawder in Washington; Editing by Padraic Cassidy)

Muslim Brotherhood-led bloc threatens Egypt vote boycott AFPAFP – SEPT 28,11

An electoral coalition led by the Muslim Brotherhood threatened late Wednesday to boycott November's legislative elections in Egypt if the electoral law is not amended.In a statement, the bloc objected to Article Five of the electoral law, which bans political parties from running in a third of the seats in parliament, which are reserved for independent candidates.We refuse to take part in elections if Article Five of the electoral law is not cancelled, said the statement.It was published in the name of the Democratic Coalition which, as well as the Muslim Brotherhood, includes the Freedom and Justice Party, an offshoot of the Brotherhood, and the liberal al-Waf party.Egypt's interim military rulers announced on Tuesday that the first stage of parliamentary elections, the first since the uprising that toppled Hosni Mubarak, would be held on November 28.But in an amendment to the electoral law, it said two-thirds of parliament would be elected through a party list under the proportional representation system.The rest would be elected through a simple majority -- but only independent candidates would be eligible to run for them.Under the old system, hundreds of candidates ran as independents if they did not make on to Mubarak's National Democratic Party lists, only to join the party after winning seats.But Article Five of the new electoral law specifically forbids those elected as independents from joining a parliamentary bloc once elected -- on pain of losing their seats.More than two dozen political parties have already rejected the law, objecting that it could help return old regime figures to parliament.They have called for a pure proportional representation system and the activation of a law that would ban corrupt politicians from running for office.

Cantaloupe outbreak is deadliest in a decade
APBy MARY CLARE JALONICK - Associated Press | AP – SEPT 29,11


WASHINGTON (AP) — Health officials say as many as 16 people have died from possible listeria illnesses traced to Colorado cantaloupes, the deadliest food outbreak in more than a decade.The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said Tuesday that 72 illnesses, including 13 deaths, are linked to the tainted fruit. State and local officials say they are investigating three additional deaths that may be connected.
The death toll released by the CDC Tuesday — including newly confirmed deaths in Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska and Texas — surpassed the number of deaths linked to an outbreak of salmonella in peanuts almost three years ago. Nine people died in that outbreak.

Related: Timeline of listeria outbreaks

The CDC said Tuesday that they have confirmed two deaths in Texas and one death each in in Kansas, Missouri and Nebraska. Last week the CDC reported two deaths in Colorado, four deaths in New Mexico, one in Oklahoma and one in Maryland.New Mexico officials said Tuesday they are investigating a fifth death, while health authorities in Kansas and Wyoming said they too are investigating additional deaths possibly linked to the tainted fruit.Listeria is more deadly than well-known pathogens like salmonella and E. coli, though those outbreaks generally cause many more illnesses. Twenty-one people died in an outbreak of listeria poisoning in 1998 traced to contaminated hot dogs and possibly deli meats made by Bil Mar Foods, a subsidiary of Sara Lee Corp. Another large listeria outbreak in 1985 killed 52 people and was linked to Mexican-style soft cheese.Listeria generally only sickens the elderly, pregnant women and others with compromised immune systems. The CDC said the median age of those sickened is 78 and that one in five who contract the disease can die.Dr. Robert Tauxe of the CDC says the number of illnesses and deaths will probably grow in coming weeks because the symptoms of listeria don't always show up right away. It can take four weeks or more for a person to fall ill after eating food contaminated with listeria.That long incubation period is a real problem, Tauxe said. People who ate a contaminated food two weeks ago or even a week ago could still be falling sick weeks later.CDC reported the 72 illnesses and deaths in 18 states. Cases of listeria were reported in California, Colorado, Florida, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Maryland, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Texas, Virginia, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and Wyoming. The most illnesses were reported in Colorado, which has seen 15 sickened. Fourteen illnesses were reported in Texas, 10 in New Mexico and eight in Oklahoma.

The outbreak has been traced to Jensen Farms in Holly, Colo., which recalled the tainted cantaloupes earlier this month. The Food and Drug Administration said state health officials had found listeria in cantaloupes taken from grocery stores in the state and from a victim's home that were grown at Jensen Farms. Matching strains of the disease were found on equipment and cantaloupe samples at Jensen Farms' packing facility in Granada, Colo.FDA, which investigates the cause of foodborne outbreaks, has not released any additional details on how the contamination may have happened. The agency says its investigation is ongoing.The Rocky Ford-brand cantaloupes from Jensen Farms were shipped from July 29 through Sept. 10 to Arkansas, Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho, Illinois, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia, and Wyoming.

The recalled cantaloupe may be labeled Colorado Grown,Distributed by Frontera Produce,Jensenfarms.com or Sweet Rocky Fords. Not all of the recalled cantaloupes are labeled with a sticker, the FDA said.Unlike many pathogens, listeria bacteria can grow at room temperatures and even refrigerator temperatures. The FDA and CDC recommend anyone who may have one of the contaminated cantaloupes throw it out immediately and clean and sanitize any surfaces it may have touched.About 800 cases of listeria are found in the United States each year, according to CDC, and there usually are three or four outbreaks. Most of these are traced to deli meat and soft cheeses, where listeria is most common.Produce has rarely been the culprit, but federal investigators say they have seen more produce-related listeria illnesses in the past two years. It was found in sprouts in 2009 and celery in 2010.While most healthy adults can consume listeria with no ill effects, it can kill the elderly and those with compromised immune systems. It is also dangerous to pregnant women because it easily passes through to the fetus. Dr. Tauxe of the CDC said the type of listeria linked to the cantaloupes is not one that is commonly associated with pregnancy-associated illnesses, however. State and federal health authorities have not definitively linked any miscarriages, stillbirths or infant illnesses to the current outbreak.Symptoms of listeria include fever and muscle aches, often with other gastrointestinal symptoms. Victims often become incapacitated and unable to speak.Debbie Frederick said her mother knew something was wrong when her father, 87-year-old William Thomas Beach, collapsed at his home in Mustang, Okla. and couldn't get up. He died a few days later, on Sept. 1. The family later learned his death was linked to eating the cantaloupe and sued Jensen Farms.First you just kind of go into shock, said Frederick.Then it settles in that he would still be alive if this hadn't happened. It's a life, for what?

Spain Undermines Attempts to Flood Israel with Arabs-Spain, a consistent backer of the Palestinian Authority, has dealt it a blow by declaring that Israel should remain a Jewish State.By Tzvi Ben Gedalyahu First Publish: 9/26/2011, 11:42 AM

Spain, a consistent backer of the Palestinian Authority, has dealt it a blow by declaring that Israel should remain a Jewish State, undermining the Arab world’s attempt to flood Israel with several million foreign Arabs.Spanish Foreign Minister Trinidad Jimenez’s speech in the United Nations Saturday declared Israel the embodiment of the project to create a homeland for the Jewish people.She backed the Quartet’s pro-PA position that a new Arab state should be created on all of the land restored to Israel in the Six-Day War in 1967 but rejected the demand by PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas for the mass immigration of Arabs to Israel in a way that would reduce Jews to a minority.The issue refers to the Arabs claim of the right of return, a phrase copied from Israel, which allows for Jews around the world to live in Israel as citizens of the country. The Arab world adapted the term for approximately five million Arabs born to 600,000 Arabs who fled Israel in the wars in 1948 and 1967, most of them at the behest of Arab countries who promised they would return quickly after the expected annihilation of the Jewish state.

Their host Arab countries have refused to grant them full citizenship, leaving them under the care of the United Nations and in villages, or camps, that have left the residents as political tools.Jimenez, in her speech in the General Assembly, cited the painful drama of the Palestinian refugees but added that that they should not change the Jewish majority in Israel.PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas has refused to recognize Israel as a Jewish state, a statement that would preclude the mass immigration of Arabs. Israel has argued that the Arad world demand for the right of return is a tactic aimed at fulfilling Palestinian Authority’s hopes to take sovereignty over all of Israel, as depicted on its official maps.

Shofar From Temple Mount Liberation Exhibited in Jerusalem-Unique exhibition at the Bible Lands Museum in Jerusalem presents the Shofar as a witness to the history of the Jewish people By Gavriel Queenann & Yoni K.First Publish: 9/27/2011, 2:08 AM
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wl0D2_pk3d0&feature=player_embedded

On the eve of Rosh Hashanah, Arutz Sheva visited the Sound of the Shofar exhibition at the Bible Lands Museum in Jerusalem.Throughout Jewish history the Shofar has played a significant role, not just on Rosh Hashanah, the Day of Judgment, but in calling men to war, announcing the onset of Shabbat and the Holidays, and in the Temple service.It is actually that understanding, that the Shofar was used for a call to arms, that is one of the main reasons for its role on Rosh Hashanah, as the Shofar blasts are meant to awaken a Jew to repent and return to G-d.Today, the Shofar has symbolic meaning in official state events, where it is blown at the swearing in of the President of Israel, among other occasions.The most famous Shofar in the exhibition is that of the late Chief Rabbi of Israel and of the IDF, Rabbi Shlomo Goren, blown at the Western Wall at the moment of the re-unification and liberation of Jerusalem after 28 years under Jordanian occupation. Other historic shofars, including shofars redeemed from the Holocaust are in the exhibit as well.

Israel's Righteous Gentiles Gather to Celebrate Jewish New Year
A group of rescuers living in Israel, with those they saved during the Holocaust -- plans to gather to celebrate the Jewish New Year.By Chana Ya'ar First Publish: 9/26/2011, 11:38 PM


A group of rescuers living in Israel -- known to the rest of the world as righteous gentiles -- will also gather to celebrate the Jewish New Year, albeit after the holiday, on October 4. The Atzum organization has organized the gathering, an annual event, to enable the rescuers, many of whom are now elderly, to socialize with each other and with their adoptive Israeli grandchildren says Atzum founding executive director, Rabbi Levi Lauer.The NGO, which focuses its efforts on promoting social activism, will hold the gathering at Jerusalem's Nagish Cafe, run entirely by disabled individuals. The restaurant was founded by Esther Greenwald, -- herself honored by Yad Vashem as one of Israel's Righteous Among the Nations.Our group's continued support sends a clear message to the rescuers that their heroism and sacrifice has not gone unnoticed and that they will never be forgotten,Lauer added.

Among those who are invited to the celebration, and who today lives in Israel is Jaroslawa Lewicka (Levitsky). Together with her grandfather Aleksander and her mother Katarzyna, she courageously helped the Jews in Zloczow, Ukraine from 1941 to 1944.Lewicka acted as a young courier and helped supply food and medicine to Jews until the town's Jewish community was liquidated in 1943.Among the handful of survivors were two Jewish girls whom Lewicka and her family helped shelter and care for until July 1944, when the area was liberated. Her family also cared for a group of 25 Jews hiding in a nearby basement, two kilometers away, despite the clear risk to themselves.

Privacy Battles: OnStar Says GM May Record Car's Use, Even if You Cancel Service

OnStar, the service started by General Motors to support drivers through a cell phone system in their cars, has now told customers it may collect information on their movements and driving habits -- even if they no longer subscribe to the service. The notice went out quietly; the response has been anything but. OnStar installs cellular systems in vehicles which, if you pay for a service plan (starting at $18.95 a month), can give you driving directions, open the car doors if you lock yourself out, even track your car and alert local police if you are in an accident and your airbags inflate. Sound useful to you? It has more than five million customers. But then the company sent users a routine email updating its terms of service. Buried in some legal language was this line: Unless the Data Connection in your Vehicle is deactivated, information about your Vehicle may continue to be collected even if you do not have a Plan.A few lines later: We may ... share the information we collect with law enforcement or other public safety officials, credit card processors and/or third parties we contract with who conduct joint marketing initiatives with OnStar.In other words, OnStar was reserving the right to collect and share information on your driving habits -- even if you decided the service was a gimmick and ended your subscription.

OnStar has kicked a hornet's nest, wrote one person on Twitter who had noticed the change. The company quickly had to go into overdrive, trying to force the hornets back into the nest. Sens. Al Franken of Minnesota and Christopher Coons of Delaware, both Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee, wrote to express their serious concern with the changes. OnStar's assurances that it will protect its customers by anonymizing precise GPS records of their location are undermined by a broad body of research showing that it is extraordinarily difficult to successfully anonymize highly personal data like location,they said. Sen. Charles Schumer (D.-N.Y.) weighed in too, announcing Sunday he would call on the Federal Trade Commission to investigate what he called one of the most brazen invasions of privacy in recent memory.(ABC News)

The notice went out quietly; the response has been anything but.Now that the dust has settled (a little), it's worth taking a look at this case, because observers say it illustrates the conflict over privacy, technology and what companies want you, their customers, to think of them.OnStar installs cellular systems in vehicles which, if you pay for a service plan (starting at $18.95 a month), can give you driving directions, open the car doors if you lock yourself out, even track your car and alert local police if you are in an accident and your airbags inflate.Sound useful to you?

Serious Concern About Privacy

OnStar has kicked a hornet's nest, wrote one person on Twitter who had noticed the change. The company quickly had to go into overdrive, trying to force the hornets back into the nest.Sens. Al Franken of Minnesota and Christopher Coons of Delaware, both Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee, wrote to express their serious concern with the changes.OnStar's assurances that it will protect its customers by anonymizing precise GPS records of their location are undermined by a broad body of research showing that it is extraordinarily difficult to successfully anonymize highly personal data like location,they said.Sen. Charles Schumer (D.-N.Y.) weighed in too, announcing Sunday he would call on the Federal Trade Commission to investigate what he called one of the most brazen invasions of privacy in recent memory.

OnStar went into apology mode.

Not a whole lot has changed, said Adam Denison, a spokesman for OnStar, in a conversation with ABC News. If people call in to cancel their service, we will inform them we will maintain the cellular connection, but they can disconnect at any time.Might the company sell the data to others, such as insurance companies? No, we're not doing it now, nor do we have any plans to do so, said Denison.What if a government agency were to call, asking for data on a driver's behavior? If a state highway department would call,he said,we could share data anonymously.So the police can't ask to see if I've ever driven 20 mph over the speed limit? Denison sent a statement from Joanne Finnorn, the firm's vice president for subscriber services:We are always very specific about with whom we share customers' personal information, and how they will use it,said Finnorn. We have never sold any personally identifiable information to any third party.It concluded, We apologize for creating any confusion about our Terms and Conditions. We want to make sure we are as clear with our customers as possible, but it's apparent that we have failed to do this.

Despite the company's assurances, this is another thorny case in which people have been monitored by a large company -- in this case, one that can tell where and how fast they drive -- and it may be possible for law enforcement agencies or others to subpoena them to get it.

Want Police Tracking You? How About Marketers?

Interconnected cars are a good thing, but a society with constant surveillance is not a good thing, said Justin Brookman, director of the consumer privacy project at the Center for Democracy & Technology in Washington.Brock Meeks, a colleague of Brookman's, pointed out that police can conceivably subpoena OnStar data without asking a judge's permission. They can track someone, he said, without having to show any suspicion of wrongdoing.Legal cases have gone back and forth on whether that should be allowed. The Supreme Court has agreed to hear a case, United States v. Jones, that could help settle whether police may use GPS to track people without a warrant approved by a judge.There's another part of this. Brookman said marketers in the future might be very interested in OnStar's data. If you regularly drive past a particular store, would you want the store sending you advertisements? What if those promotions are for lingerie or expensive cars? How would you feel if your spouse saw them? Franken and Coons said,We believe that OnStar's actions underscore the urgent need for prompt congressional action to enact privacy laws that protect private, sensitive information like location.One major factor that protects consumers, though, is consumer anger, said Brookman.It's not just consumers who are worried about privacy, he said.Companies are concerned that people will be freaked out and stop trusting their products.

That apparently includes OnStar.

You have a right to be confident your information is kept secure and to understand our privacy practices, it said in its email.After the backlash, OnStar's Brynn Guster tweeted, You can opt out by calling 1-888-4ONSTAR.

Faith Pastors Unite Against IRS Tax Code Restrictions on Political Speech in the Pulpit Posted on September 24, 2011 at 6:42am by Billy Hallowell
http://www.theblaze.com/stories/pastors-unite-against-irs-tax-code-restrictions-on-political-speech-in-the-pulpit/ (VIDEOS TO WATCH)

Are American pastors free to share their political views from the pulpit? The answer to this question is complex. While some issues can certainly be discussed, there are also government-sanctioned limitations on partisan preaching (especially if churches expect to keep their tax-exempt status).A regulation added to the IRS code back in 1954 has muddied the waters for pastors, creating a scenario in which some leaders are too fearful of federal consequences to exercise their right to free speech from the pulpit.With pastors unsure of just how far they can take their partisan comments about specific candidates, some religious leaders find themselves purposefully avoiding the subject — a result that has potentially led to a decline in church education on issues of great social and political importance.As faith influences an individual’s take on social and political issues, one wonders why religious leaders face restrictions on speech that is so intertwined with personal religious beliefs.

The fear and uncertainty that some faith leaders experience is driven by the aforementioned ban on political campaign activity that was instituted on both charities and churches, alike, nearly 60 years ago. It was back in 1954 that Congress approved of what has become known as the Johnson Amendment. The provision, which still stands today, explicitly prohibits 501(c)(3) organizations (churches and charities) from engaging in campaign activity.Rather than declining in prevalence over time, this regulation has been strengthened. The last change was made to it back in 1987, when the amendment’s language was tightened to clarify that the restrictions should also cover statements and stances that stand against candidates (previously it was interpreted to only stand for statements that supported specific candidates). The IRS describes a 501(c)(3) as a group:which does not participate in, or intervene in (including the publishing or distributing of statements), any political campaign on behalf of (or in opposition to) any candidate for public office.Since religious leaders — be they liberal or conservative — are legally restricted in recommending or railing against specific political candidates, silence, for some, has likely been the response. This has created an environment under which some leaders feel that they cannot remain true to their personal beliefs and convictions.

The Speak Up campaign (launched by the Alliance Defense Fund) addresses this important issue, while working to protect and promote the rights of American churches. In addition to making faith leaders aware of their constitutional right to free speech, the movement encourages pastors to stop self-censoring and to start making their political voices heard.Below, see a trailer that comprehensively explains Speak Up in some pastors’ own words:To combat these restrictions, which critics believe severely impede the free speech of pastors and faith leaders, alike, the ADF also launched the Pulpit Initiative and Pulpit Freedom Sunday back in 2008. The project, designed to restore pastors’ rights to speak openly about any and all issues addressed in the Bible, described the historical restrictions on faith leaders as follows:Historically, churches have emphatically, and with great passion, spoken Scriptural truth from the pulpit about government and culture. Historians have stated that America owes its independence in great degree to the moral force of the pulpit. [...]All that changed in 1954 with the passage of the Johnson amendment which restricted the right of churches and pastors to speak Scriptural truth about candidates for office.The Pulpit Initiative is urging pastors to come together to challenge this free speech-altering restriction. And proponents of the movement aren’t shy. While they don’t want to turn churches into political mechanisms, they do want to see the Johnson Amendment declared unconstitutional. In their view, the IRS should have no right to censor what a pastor preaches about, be it political or not. The Speak Up web site has more:

ADF is actively seeking to represent churches or pastors who are under investigation by the IRS for violating the Johnson Amendment by preaching biblical Truth in a way that expresses support for – or opposition to – political candidates. ADF represents all of its clients free of charge.But in addition to legal help, pastors can also join in on Pulpit Freedom Sunday, an annual event the coalition has launched to encourage pastors to preach sermons that to examine candidates’ stances. Aside from exploring candidate opinion, churches are encouraged to look at what Scripture says about each issue. Then, they will make specific recommendations about whether or not the congregation should vote for or against specific candidates.Following the event, each pastor lets the IRS know about his or her sermon. The hope is that making the government aware of the code violation will spark an audit. Then, the constitutionality of the Johnson Amendment can be hashed out once and for all.In 2008, only 33 pastors participated; this expanded to 80 faith leaders in 2009 and then nearly 100 in 2010. With the movement rapidly growing, even more leaders are poised to take part in this year’s Pulpit Freedom Sunday on October 2, 2011.

Netanyahu Slams Erdogan's Scandalous Incitement-Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu slammed his Turkish counterpart Monday evening for scandalous remarks during the UN General Assembly.By Chana Ya'ar First Publish: 9/27/2011, 2:40 AM

Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu slammed his Turkish counterpart Monday evening for scandalous remarks during the United Nations General Assembly.Netanyahu accused Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan of outright incitement for statements made to CNN regarding the Nazi Holocaust of the Jews and accusing Israel of killing hundreds of thousands of Palestinians.Erdogan claimed in the broadcast interview Sunday, They [Israel] say that Palestine is bombing and disturbing the people of Israel, and many Israelis have been killed. I would like to see accurate statistics of how many Israelis have been killed by the bombs thrown by Palestinians or with the rockets that were launched by them, 10, 20, 100, 200 … how many? Please document it. Let us know.But on the other hand, he continued,we know that hundreds of thousands of Palestinians were killed. Only as a result of the Gaza attack, thousands of people were killed. These are very clear remarks. The Israeli people are only resorting back to the issue of genocide in history.Erdogan attacked Israel during his speech to the international body last Thursday as well, urging the United Nations to act quickly and heal this wound.He advocated for agreeing to the demands of the Palestinian Authority to recognize it as a new country in all areas restored to Israel in the 1967 Six Day War, including much of the Israeli capital – and including Judaism's holiest sites, the Western Wall and the Temple Mount.

The Israeli prime minister said bluntly that the incitement voiced by the Turkish prime minister was mendacious and scandalous, adding, These are outrageous charges against Israel that have nothing to do with the facts.The Holocaust was the worst crime in history perpetrated against our people. The prime minister added that Israel has lost thousands of its citizens to Palestinian terrorism.Although Erdogan's ire began several years ago with Israel's counter terrorism mini-war against the Hamas rulers of Gaza, he recently downgraded the country's long-standing diplomatic ties with the Jewish State to their lowest level in decades.

Erdogan Slams Israel in UN: Israel’s Leaders Bury Peace-Turkish Prime Minister Erdogan takes advantage of his speech at the UN General Assembly to once again attack Israel.By Elad Benari First Publish: 9/23/2011, 1:11 AM

Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan took advantage of his speech at the UN General Assembly on Thursday to attack Israel, something he has made a habit of doing in recent months.Israel did not comply with 89 UN resolutions and the UN is not helping to put an end to tragedy of the Palestinians, Channel 10 News quoted Erdogan as saying.We cannot leave this issue unresolved - the international community must act quickly and heal this wound, Erdogan added, stressing that the international community must put pressure on Israel and agree to the Palestinian Authority’s request for recognition of an independent state.He blamed the Netanyahu government for the current political deadlock, saying, Those who are in power in Israel do not build peace but bury peace. Those who are in power in Israel must understand that true security comes with a genuine peace. There is nothing that can replace peace.Erdogan referred to his country’s diplomatic row with Israel over the 2010 flotilla and once again demanded that Israel apologize for the deaths of nine Turkish nationals on the Mavi Marmara.Israel must apologize, pay compensation, and remove the blockade on Gaza, Erodgan was quoted as saying, making it clear once again that these are his terms for normalizing relations with Israel.He emphasized, however, that Turkey has no problem with the Israeli people.

Turkey downgraded its relations with Israel earlier this month, after the UN’s Palmer Report on the flotilla concluded that Israel faces a real threat to its security from militant groups in Gaza and determined that Israel’s naval blockade on the region was imposed as a legitimate security measure.Israel has reiterated that it has no intention of apologizing for the deaths of the nine IHH terrorists who died when IDF soldiers boarded the Mavi Marmara and were attacked by the so-called peace activists on board.

Turkey Denies Ordering List of IDF Navy Commandos-Turkey has officially denied ordering a list of the IDF personnel and officials involved in the May 2010 flotilla clash on the Mavi Marmara.By Chana Ya'ar First Publish: 9/26/2011, 9:45 PM

Turkey has officially denied involvement in gathering a list of 174 names of Israeli personnel – mostly navy commandos – involved in the May 2010 clash on the Mavi Marmara flotilla vessel.Istanbul Deputy Public Prosecutor Ates Hasan Sozen denied in a statement to the Turkish newspaper Today's Zaman asking the National Intelligence Organization (MIT) to identify IDF soldiers and commanders involved in the raid. Sozen said the list was prepared by the IHH organization that owned the Mavi Marmara, and had been allegedly prepared using a Facebook search.No state institution had such a request, nor does it have any information on this, he said. The prosecutor conducting the investigation has given no such order. He added that IHH lawyer Ugur Yildirim submitted the list Monday morning, the same day the list was published in a Turkish daily.The report published earlier in the day in the Turkish Sabah daily newspaper said the MIT had gathered information on the identities of the IDF commandos involved in killing nine Turkish terror activists on the vessel.

According to the report, the Istanbul Chief Prosecutor's Office had written to Israel demanding the full names and residential addresses of the military and government officials who gave the orders to attack the Mavi Marmara, and those who carried out those orders. Israel refused to comply, the newspaper reported, hence the prosecutor's request to MIT.Almost all of the soldiers who took part in the killing of nine Turks and the wounding of 30 others have been identified, the paper claimed.Legal steps have already been taken to protect those who were involved in the operation, according to the IDF.The Mavi Marmara was one of six ships allegedly intent on bringing humanitarian aid to Gaza. The Free Gaza movement used the sea for the operation as a means to breaking Israel's blockade of the region. It was later found that the Mavi Mamarma was carrying no humanitarian aid whatsoever, and many of its passengers were armed and looking to initiate a confrontation. The flotilla ignored repeated calls by Israel's navy to change course and head to Ashdod port, where their aid supplies would be debarked, inspected and transferred to Gaza through an overland route. Instead, IDF commandos were forced to board the vessels to ensure they did not reach Gaza -- and on the Mavi Marmara, the soldiers were viciously attacked by terror activists with deadly weapons.The United Nations' Palmer Report concluded in its findings earlier this month that Israel's blockade of Gaza is legal and appropriate given the constant efforts by the region's ruling Hamas terrorist organization, and others, to smuggle in arms and ordnance with which to attack Israeli citizens.

Iraq signs deal to buy 18 F-16 warplanes
ReutersBy Suadad al-Salhy | Reuters – SEPT 26,11


BAGHDAD (Reuters) - Iraq has signed a contract to buy 18 Lockheed Martin F-16 warplanes to bolster its air force, an adviser to Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki said on Monday.The value of the deal was not immediately known, but a senior U.S. military official said recently the offer on the table for the Iraqi government was valued at roughly $3 billion.Iraqi and U.S. military officials have said strengthening its air force is one of Baghdad's top priorities as U.S. troops prepare to leave by December 31, more than eight years after the invasion that ousted Saddam Hussein.The contract was signed ... and a part of the contract cost was sent to the bank account of the company, said Maliki's media adviser, Ali al-Moussawi.Lockheed said in a statement it looked forward to a partnership with Baghdad and was pleased with the confidence Iraq places in our products. It declined to comment on the specifics of the deal, referring questions to the Iraqi and U.S. governments.The Pentagon said it was aware of news reports that Iraq had signed the agreement but did not immediately confirm and referred questions to Baghdad.Iraq has long sought a combat jet for its rebuilt air force. The government delayed a planned purchase of F-16s in February to divert a $900 million down payment to its national food ration program to help quell street protests.

Maliki said on July 30 Iraq would buy 36 F-16s, double the number it had originally planned, to shore up its weak air defenses. The OPEC producer has found itself flush with cash this year, reaping windfall profits as world oil prices have remained above budget projections.The two sides have been negotiating for the F-16 Block 52 export model with sophisticated avionics and weapons in a deal that included maintenance and training, a U.S. military official said.Iraq is relying on the U.S. military for air support as it rebuilds its forces and battles a stubborn Islamist insurgency. Washington and Baghdad are discussing whether to keep some U.S. troops or military trainers in Iraq beyond the year-end deadline for U.S. departure.Iraq's two airborne defense units, the Air Force and Army Aviation Command, have only 158 aircraft, including 89 helicopters and 69 airplanes, and about 7,500 personnel, according to U.S. figures.At present, it has three Cessna Caravan propeller planes equipped with Hellfire missiles but no combat jets, a U.S. military official said.

EUCOM Commander Concludes Two-Day Visit to Israel-EUCOM Commander conducts work visit to Israel as part of the annual schedule of joint training and learning between EUCOM and the IDF.By Elad Benari First Publish: 9/27/2011, 4:09 AM

The commander of the U.S. European Command (EUCOM), Admiral James Stavridis, departed Israel on Monday following a two-day work visit as a guest of the Chief of the General Staff, Lieutenant General Benny Gantz.During the course of his visit, Admiral Stavridis conducted work meetings with senior officers and toured a number of facilities throughout the country, including a site of an Iron Dome battery which protects Israeli citizens from rockets and missiles fired by the enemy.EUCOM, the United States Combatant Command responsible for nearly all of Europe, parts of Asia and the Middle East, and the Atlantic and Arctic Ocean, also heads many aspects of the military cooperation between Israel and the United States. One specific example of this cooperation is active missile defense.Israel and the United States plan to hold a joint large scale missile defense exercise next year to improve operational coordination of their defense systems.The exercise is scheduled to take place in early 2012 and will be one of the most extensive and complex drills ever conducted.
This was Admiral Stavridis’ third visit to Israel and his first in the current year. The visit took place as part of the annual schedule of joint training and learning between EUCOM and the IDF.

Greek police protest troika, German and French embassies Today SEPT 26,11 @ 17:53 By Leigh Phillips

The very people who have been charged with protecting the Greek parliament and politicians from furious crowds and who have even been criticised by Amnesty International for their heavy-handedness, the Greek police, have themselves now begun to protest EU-IMF austerity.On Monday, police from the Special Guards unit climbed Mount Lycabettus, the highest point in Athens, to hang a giant black banner underneath the hill’s famous Chapel of St. George saying Pay day, day of mourning.
Some 50 striking police officers protected the banner from police who remained in service and who had been sent to tear the banner down.Troops of police have also protested outside European Commission offices in the capital and the German and French embassies, with a banner reading: Troikans Out! and another from the Pan-Hellenic Federation of Police Officers declaring in English: Greeks do not negotiate our national dignity.We will not become escorts for drug-addict politicians to get their latest dose,said another in reference the police operation in June providing protection from mass protests for MPs to be able enter parliament to pass austerity measures. The Greek term for a tranche of a loan and for a dose of drugs is the same word.The officers complain of cuts in wages and forced unpaid leave. Monday was a scheduled pay-day, but some wages are being withheld as part of a special solidarity tax imposed on public sector workers.

They have said they intend to massively participate alongside other civil servant protests. Further police protests are scheduled for Tuesday evening near the parliament.An angry declaration on the police union website from warned of an escalation of our struggle and that the security forces would not uncritically accept the directives from emanating from the IMF, the European Union and the powerful countries.We refuse to accept government conditions for occupiers of our land.The police demonstrations came amid further industrial action by transport workers on Monday, with Athens metro, tram and suburban rail halted for 24 hours. Buses and trolleys workers downed tools for a number of hours and air traffic controllers took work-to-rule action.Transport workers have called a two-day strike later this week. A public-sector strike has been announced for 5 October while an all-sector general strike is to be held on 19 October.On Sunday, riot police used tear gas to clear thousands of protestors from Syntagma Square in front of the Greek parliament. The Greek government in June was criticised by Amnesty International for its excessive use of tear gas against protestors.The same day, some 50 students stormed state television offices aiming to broadcast a message protesting reforms to universities, cuts that have kicked of a series of sit-ins at post-secondary institutions across the country.There has been an occupation at the state television channel NET and we are dealing with it, government spokesman Elias Mossialos said. The station refused the students’ demand and transmitted a travel documentary instead of the seven o’clock news.

Separately, the European Commission on Monday said that troika inspectors would still not be arriving in Athens to continue their review of the implementation of the austerity demanded by international lenders.No date has been set, said economy spokesman Amadeu Altafaj-Tardio. An EU official later said however that the commission is pretty confident [that they can return this week].[The troika] are finalising discussions with Greece, then we can move forward,said the official.
However, any decision on the release of the latest, €8 billion tranche of bail-out cash for the country will not be made even during a meeting of eurozone finance ministers in Luxembourg on 3 October.The troika mission must first return to Athens, produce a compliance assessment, which must then be considered by other eurozone states before the funds can be handed over.It will be a tight schedule, as the country is set to run out of money to pay civil servants and pensioners by the middle of next month.Greek police protest EU-IMF austerity

There is life after the Commission
Today SEPT 26,11 @ 19:08 By Roland Vaubel


At least 39 percent of Commissioners become representatives of some private interests after leaving the European Commission. They join a company or an interest group association or establish a consulting business of their own.This is the result of a study The Private Interest Representation by former EU Commissioners', scrutinizing the activities of the 92 Commissioners who have retired from the Commission since 1982.*

The ex-Commissioners use the knowledge and network they have acquired during their term of office. They cash in on the human capital that they have accumulated at the expense of the taxpayers.The prospect of afterlife, however, may affect their decisions and voting behaviour while they are still at the Commission. It may induce them to be more accommodating towards interest groups. This is why the Commission has adopted a Code of Conduct prescribing a cooling-off period during which its retiring members are not supposed to lobby in their former policy field.

Portfolio and nationality

Indeed, as the study shows, the probability that the ex-Commissioners become lobbyists depends significantly on their former policy brief. It is 100 percent if they have been responsible for competition policy, 89 percent for the internal market, 67 percent for economics and finance and 57 percent for agriculture, energy or industry. It is zero for ex-Commissioners who have been in charge of research, education, administrative affairs, health or multilinguism.The Commissioner's home country also matters. Commissioners from Portugal, Austria, Bulgaria and Malta have the highest propensity to lobby, those from Scandinavia the lowest. The UK comes tenth with a probability of 44 percent.Another factor is education. Among the ex-Commissioners who have a law degree, 48 percent become lobbyists. This compares with 35 percent for economists and 33 percent for the rest. However, the lawyers are more willing to sign the Commission's register of lobbyists. They seem to consider it more natural to defend special interests.Commissioners nominated by left wing governments are significantly less likely to represent private interests after they have stepped down. This may be due to their preferences, or they may be less useful as lobbyists. There is no significant difference between conservatives, liberals and independents.

Average retirement age i 58

Age also plays a role. The younger the Commissioner is at the time of leaving the Commission, the larger the probability is that he or she will become a lobbyist. This was to be expected because the older ex-Commissioners are more likely to stop working altogether.However, a lengthy office term is shown to raise the probability of becoming a private interest representative. On average, Commissioners retire at the age of 58, after six years of office.The share of ex-Commissioners turning lobbyists does not follow a trend. It rose in 1993-99 but it fell thereafter. The increase in the 1990s may have been due to the fact that the Single European Act (1987) and the Treaty of Maastricht (1993) introduced qualified majority decisions on many types of regulations. This meant that interest groups could capture the Council more easily. The subsequent decline may have been caused by the Commission's Code of Conduct (1999) or by the Eastern enlargement (2004). Eastern Europeans may be less used to lobbying in Brussels.

Cooling-off period extended

The Commission has just extended the cooling-off period for retiring Commissioners from 12 to 18 months. However, ex-Commissioners may obtain up to 65 percent of their former salary for three years after leaving, if their income from work stays within specified limits. These times ought to be brought in line.Moreover, the cooling-off period applies only to lobbying within the ex-Commissioner's former policy brief. Yet the Commission decides collectively. Each Commissioner is entitled to vote on all decisions taken by the Commission. The prospect of becoming a lobbyist may also affect his vote on issues outside his policy brief. The cooling-off period ought to cover all policy fields in which the Commission is active.Finally, rules should not be set by those who later are to abide by them. If the rules are determined by the Commissioners, they are likely to be biased in their favour. They will not sufficiently restrict the scope for post-Commission lobbying.As a result, Commissioners give too much support to special interest groups, both before and after retiring from the Commission. The Code of Conduct for former Commissioners ought to be legislated by the Council and the European Parliament or be incorporated in the European Treaties.

Typhoon lashes Philippines, 1 dead, thousands flee
APBy HRVOJE HRANJSKI - Associated Press | AP – SEPT 26,11


MANILA, Philippines (AP) — A powerful typhoon slammed the northern Philippines Tuesday, unleashing floods, cutting power and halting work in the capital, Manila, where residents waded in waist-deep waters and strong winds toppled trees.
Authorities ordered more than 100,000 people to shelter from rains and wind gusts of up to 106 miles (170 kilometers) per hour. At least one person — a baby — drowned and four fishermen were reported missing.Typhoon Nesat made landfall before dawn over eastern mountainous Isabela and Aurora provinces which face the Pacific Ocean, packing sustained winds of 87 mph (140 kph), the government weather bureau said.

With its immense 400-mile (650-kilometer) cloud band, the typhoon threatened to foul weather across the entire main Luzon Island as it moves across the Philippines toward the South China Sea late Wednesday or early Thursday and then heads toward southern China.Heavy downpours and winds prompted the closure of government offices, schools and universities in the capital, while scores of domestic flights were canceled and inter-island ferries grounded, stranding thousands. The Philippine Stock Exchange and U.S. Embassy were also closed Tuesday.A year-old baby drowned in the central island province of Cataduanes after falling into a river, the government disaster agency reported. Four fishermen were missing while more than 50 others were rescued along eastern shores after their boats overturned in choppy seas. Forecasters warned of 12-foot-high (4-meter-high) waves.A tornado in Isabela's Maconancon town ripped off the roofs of at least five houses, injuring two people, police said.Power was cut in many parts of Luzon, including in Manila, where hospitals, hotels and emergency services used generators. Tree branches and torn tarpaulins littered the flooded streets. Traffic was light as most people stayed indoors.In downtown Manila, near the historic old city, residents waded in waist-deep floodwaters as waves washed over the seawall along Manila Bay. Sidewalks and entrances to buildings were swamped and vehicles struggled to navigate the narrow streets.Around the central Robinsons shopping mall, fierce winds toppled tables and tree branches, sending people for cover. Visibility was poor as the rain obscured the view.

In other parts of Manila, emergency workers prepared to evacuate river areas that are notorious for flooding.About 112,000 people were ordered to leave their homes in five towns prone to flash floods and landslides in central Albay province. By Monday, more than 50,000 had moved to government-run evacuation centers and relatives' homes, officials said.We can't manage typhoons, but we can manage their effects, Albay Gov. Joey Salceda said.Authorities were monitoring farming communities at the base of Mayon volcano in Albay, about 212 miles (340 kilometers) southeast of Manila.Tons of ash have been deposited on Mayon's slopes by past eruptions, and mudslides caused by a typhoon in 2006 buried entire villages, leaving about 1,600 people dead and missing.The typhoon bore down on the Philippines exactly two years after nearly 500 people died in the worst flooding in decades in Manila, a city of 12 million, when a tropical storm hit.Residents commemorated the anniversary by offering prayers and planting trees Monday.Nesat is the 16th cyclone to lash the Philippines this year. The geography of the archipelago makes it a welcome mat for about 20 storms and typhoons forming in the Pacific each year.Associated Press writer Jim Gomez contributed to this report.

Not 1967, 1947


London's Daily Telegraph has the text of Moderate Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas Abu Mazen's letter to UN Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon requesting statehood. Not only are the words 1967 borders not mentioned; it also doesn't mention the 1949 armistice lines. Instead, Abu Bluff wants to go back to the 1947 partition plan, which was rejected on the spot by the Arabs because it allowed a Jewish state at all.

I warned back in July that this was where it was headed. Here's a map to give you an idea of what 1947 would mean (Israel liberated much more territory in the War of Independence).Israel would be the blue parts on the map. It would mean no Jerusalem and no airport. Even more indefensible borders than the 1949 armistice lines. The Palestinians ignore Security Council Resolution 242, which requires that Israel be left with defensible borders and says nothing about a Palestinian state.And Israel's mendacious opposition calls this a window of opportunity?

World Palestinians Want an Even Bigger State Than the 1967 Borders Posted on September 27, 2011 at 12:46am by Sharona Schwartz Sharona Schwartz

When the Palestinians presented their bid for statehood at the UN Friday, most news outlets suggested Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas was aiming for a state based on 1967 borders covering only the West Bank, Gaza and East Jerusalem.A closer look at the actual letter he presented to UN Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon applying for UN membership reveals the Palestinians are aiming for far more territory.As reprinted in the Telegraph, Abbas’s letter reads:This application for membership is being submitted on the Palestinian people’s natural, legal and historic rights and based on United Nations General Assembly resolution 181 (II) of 29 November 1947 as well as the Declaration of Independence of the State of Palestine of 15 November 1988 and the acknowledgement by the General Assembly of this declaration in resolution 43/177 of 15 December 1988.Lots of dates are cited here. Let’s take a closer look. Abbas says his people’s rights are based on the 1947 UN Resolution. That year refers to the UN Partition Plan, the same plan all Arab states rejected and the Jews accepted for their homeland, after which those Arab neighbors declared war on Israel.

These maps from GBTV reveal the land allotted to the Jewish State under the 1947 Partition Plan was in fact much smaller than that afforded under 1967 borders.
Though President Obama has endorsed Palestinian demands — stated until now — that their future state be based on 1967 borders, Israel says borders should be based on the outcome of negotiations. If Abbas’s proposal is accepted by the UN Security Council, gone from Israel is Jerusalem its capital and home to the sites most sacred to Jews and Christians. Also gone: Ben Gurion Airport just outside Tel Aviv, the country’s only major international airport.The blog Israel Matzav explains the significance:It would mean no Jerusalem and no airport. Even more indefensible borders than the 1949 armistice lines. The Palestinians ignore Security Council Resolution 242, which requires that Israel be left with defensible borders and says nothing about a Palestinian state.There are other alarming suggestions the Palestinians are not being upfront in stating their intentions regarding the size of the state they aim for.One of the sticking points in restarting negotiations with Israel is the Palestinians’ continued opposition to recognizing Israel as a Jewish State. In fact, last week a round of talks aimed at restarting peace negotiations broke up over Abbas’ refusal to recognize Israel as a Jewish State.Secondly, the Palestine Liberation Organization’s current logo on its UN Observer Mission website suggests it wants the entire state of Israel incorporated into its future state – not just the West Bank and Gaza. The map on the logo appears to suggest the goal is to wipe Israel completely off the map. The Weekly Standard posted this:

Here is the logo:Compare the green on this logo to the above maps and you’ll see Israel has vanished.But Mahmoud Abbas is the Palestinian Authority President, not the PLO’s. Not quite. Note how Abbas signed his letter to Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon: Mahmoud Abbas, President of the State of Palestine, Chairman of the Executive Committee of the Palestine Liberation Organization.Looking at the moving borders raises the question: are Mideast agreements ever final, and how does Israel ensure its own security if they are not? One indication they are not came over the weekend, when Mahmoud Abbas said he wants to bust open part of the Oslo Agreements with the Israelis called the Paris Agreement and renegotiate. On his plane as he was traveling from New York back to Ramallah, Abbas told journalists:We want to reopen the Paris Agreement and make changes to it…The agreement is not fair and there are restrictions on Palestinians that prevent our economy from growing and prospering. The Paris Agreement does not give us the opportunity to develop our economy and our country.Right now the ball is in the court of UN Security Council (UNSC) members. It will be interesting to see how each votes. Since losing its capital city and main airport as well as other strategic assets would be a non-starter for Israel, the votes on these 1947 borders will reveal if UNSC members are sincere in their desire for peace in the Middle East, if they recognize Israel’s right to security (and honoring UNSC Resolution 242), or if they are paying lip service to the Palestinians.

Analysis - U.S., Palestinians race for votes at UN council ReutersBy Louis Charbonneau | Reuters – SEPT 26,11

UNITED NATIONS (Reuters) - The Palestinians' initiative to seek U.N. recognition as a state, which goes to the Security Council on Monday, faces an uphill struggle to secure the nine votes needed for approval.Without those votes in the 15-member body, the United States will be spared the embarrassment of having to veto the application, which would be a further blow to its floundering efforts to secure Middle East peace.As the formal discussions start, diplomats say the Palestinians have only six certain votes on the council -- China, Russia, Brazil, Lebanon, India and South Africa.Those nations, except Lebanon, make up the BRICS bloc of emerging powers whose economic and diplomatic clout has grown as trade becomes more globalised and the United States and Europe fight prospects of another recession.

But diplomats say the BRICS countries seem to have made no attempt to use their considerable weight, often on show in financial and trade matters, to force the Palestinian issue. They have essentially taken the same approach as always.If a vote was held today, the Palestinians wouldn't have enough votes to carry the day and the Americans wouldn't even need to use their veto, a Western diplomat told Reuters.The Palestinian observer to the United Nations, Riyad Mansour, told reporters nine council members are among the 131 U.N. member states that have recognized the state of Palestine and he hoped that they would vote positively.But he acknowledged that council members will face tremendous pressure in the coming weeks to vote against the Palestinian U.N. bid.Still, diplomats say Washington remains isolated on the council because of its staunch support for Israel, which the majority of U.N. member states believe has worked hard to sabotage peace talks with the Palestinians.In February, Washington vetoed what was widely seen as an anodyne resolution condemning Israeli settlement activity, even though its language was largely consistent with statements of the Obama administration, which has urged the Israelis to resume a moratorium on new settlements.When Israel ended the moratorium a year ago, the Palestinians withdrew from moribund peace talks.

ISOLATION

Highlighting its isolation on the Security Council, Washington cast the sole vote against the settlements resolution. The other 14 members -- including Washington's European allies such as Britain and France -- opposed the United States and Israel and voted for the resolution.The Europeans agree with Washington that the Palestinian U.N. bid is unwise and are inclined to oppose it. But the Europeans and Americans are far apart on the Middle East issue and diplomats say Washington remains as isolated as ever.Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas set the clock ticking on Friday when he delivered a U.N. membership application for a Palestinian state in the West Bank and Gaza Strip. The capital would be East Jerusalem, land Israel captured in the 1967 war that it launched out of fear Arabs were poised to attack.The council will take up the Palestinian membership application on Monday in closed-door consultations, but no immediate action is expected, diplomats say.Normally the council would take no more than 35 days to review and assess a membership application. In July, the application of South Sudan, the 193rd U.N. member and the most recent country to join the world body, was approved in a matter of days and given to the General Assembly, which confirmed it.Western diplomats on the Security Council say that will not be the case with the Palestinian application. The United States and Israel vehemently oppose the move and say it can only undermine efforts to relaunch stalled peace talks.

The 35-day limit can easily be waived, Western diplomats say. Slowing down the process, they say, would be helpful as it would buy time for the United States, the European Union, Russia and the United Nations -- the Quartet -- to put pressure on both sides to get back to the negotiating table.But Abbas told reporters during the trip back to Ramallah that he expected the council to make a decision in weeks not months.Palestinian Foreign Minister Riyad al-Malki has acknowledged his delegation lacks sufficient support at the moment to get a resolution on Palestinian statehood and U.N. membership through the council.To pass, resolutions need nine votes in favour and no vetoes from the five permanent council members -- Britain, China, France, Russia and the United States.We're working towards it (securing nine votes) and I think we'll manage it,Malki said.Malki has named Gabon, Nigeria and Bosnia as key rotating council members he hopes to win over to the Palestinians' side. During last week's U.N. General Assembly session, the three swing states did not divulge whether they would vote in favour of Palestinian U.N. membership.Gabon President Ali Bongo told the assembly he supported the existence of a Palestinian state that lives peacefully side by side with Israel. Bosnian President Zeljko Komsic voiced similar views. Nigerian President Goodluck Jonathan did not mention the Palestinians in his speech.Mansour said the Palestinians would be sending high-level delegations to Bosnia, Gabon and Nigeria in the coming weeks.Portugal's prime minister, Pedro Passos Coelho, whose country is also on the council, indicated Lisbon would favour an option whereby the Palestinians would apply to the General Assembly for upgraded U.N. observer state status -- less than full membership but indirect recognition of statehood.(Editing by John O'Callaghan and Cynthia Osterman)
