Headline:    Obama unveils compensation package for Israel after Iran deal

The New York Times on Friday revealed the details of a compensation package Israel is set to receive from the United States after world powers and Iran agreed to a historic nuclear agreement in early July. Laid out in a letter dated August 19 to US Congressman Jerrold Nadler (D-NY), the president promised to increase American military aid for Israel in developing new anti-missile systems and tunnel detection technologies. “Our governments should identify ways to accelerate the ongoing collaborative research and development for tunnel detection and mapping technologies to provide Israel new capabilities to detect and destroy tunnels because they could be used to threaten Israeli civilians,” Obama stated in writing. The Obama administration also promised to increase cooperation with Israel and its Arab neighbors to help fight the Islamic Republic’s influence in the region, specifically Tehran’s funding of the Houthis in Yemen, Hezbollah in Lebanon and Syrian President Bashar Assad.

Headline: Settlers and Palestinians Clash Near West Bank Outpost; Wounded Reported

Violent clashes erupted on Saturday morning between dozens of settlers and about 150 Palestinians near the West Bank outpost of Esh Kodesh. According to the Israel Defense Forces, both sides threw stones at each other, and the Palestinians tried to torch fields near the outpost, situated south of Nablus. The Palestinians reported that dozens were lightly wounded by rubber-bullet fire and gas canisters, shot by an IDF force which arrived at the scene. The IDF said the force opened fire after it was attacked with stones, and that only seven Palestinians were lightly wounded. Ghassan Douglas, a Palestinian Authority official, said the clash broke out after dozens of settlers attacked Palestinian farmers working their fields in the nearby village of Qusra on Saturday morning. A group of Palestinians from the village then set out toward the outpost.

Headline: Security Minister Wants to Outlaw Temple Mount Rioters

Minister of Internal Security Gilad Erdan (Likud) sent Defense Minister Moshe Ya’alon (Likud) a letter Monday, asking him to urgently declare the Arab organizations that create mayhem on the Temple Mount as illegal. If the defense minister signs a declaration to this effect, security forces will have a freer hand against the rioters. Erdan has been carrying out behind-the-scenes staff work in the past few weeks, together with police, the Israel Security Agency (ISA, or Shin Bet), the State Attorney’s Office and even the Attorney General, who has agreed to help advance the declaration. In the discussions of the problem, Erdan was shown evidence that the so-called murabitun and murabitat, as the male and female groups of Muslim mayhem-makers are named, are directed by the northern arm of the Islamic Movement in Israel. The purpose of their activity is to destabilize the status quo on the Temple Mount, and they have succeeded in creating escalation on the Mount, and in making the security situation there untenable.

Headline: Kurdish oil is another Netanyahu-Obama head-to-head front

That Israel and other nations were buying oil from the Kurdish republic of Iraq had been published before and was no secret. The Financial Times broke its “discovery” Sunday, Aug. 23, just by chance? on the day that Britain and Iran reopened their respective embassies in Tehran and London after a four-year breach resulting from a mob attack on the Tehran embassy. Even before sanctions were lifted and Tehran had demonstrated its compliance with the nuclear deal signed with the world powers in Vienna on July 14, European ministers were knocking on the door in a quest for financial relations. The Islamic Republic was deemed rehabilitated by the nuclear accord; and the UK saw no reason to lag behind the others. And so Foreign Secretary Philip Hammond was personally in attendance at the ceremonial reopening Sunday of the Tehran embassy.
The FT’s report’s timing fitting in perfectly with the British government’s plans to quickly develop profitable ties with the Islamic Republic in the following arenas:

  1. The oil industries in Iran and Iraq. London seeks as large a slice as possible of the $150 billion worth of oil and gas contracts on offer by Tehran.
  2. The Islamic Republic was also meant to infer from the FT report that British intelligence resources and its powerful media were available as tools for beating Israel out on the world’s energy markets.
  3. Britain’s foreign policy is grounded in accentuating its common interests with Washington. The Obama administration may pose as a champion of Masoud Barzani, President of the autonomous Kurdish Republic of northern Iraq. His peshmerga army has after all distinguished itself in its dogged fight against the Islamic State. But in practice, things are different:  the US administration, to meet the wishes of Tehran and Baghdad, consistently withholds from the Kurds the heavy weapons they need to rout ISIS.

Headline: Counter-Terrorism Bureau warns of threats to Israelis and Jews from ISIS, Iran

The National Security Council’s Counter-Terrorism Bureau released a biannual travel advisory on Monday, warning of potential threats against Jewish and Israeli targets in western nations from global jihad elements, including the Islamic State. The travel advisory comes ahead of the High Holy Days period in September and October, which is generally one of the periods in which Israelis are most likely to travel abroad. Monday’s advisory warned in particular of plots to target Israeli and Jewish targets in northern and western Europe by ISIS operatives who returned to their home countries after having fought with the organization in Iraq and Syria. The advisory also related to Africa, which serves as a base of operations for many Israeli business people. The Somalian terror group Al Shabab, which often carries out terror attacks in Kenya and Boko Haram, in Nigeria, have increased their terrorist activities in the past year, the Conunter-Terrorism Bureau further warned.

Hezbollah has reportedly put its forces on high alert along the border with Israel “for fear of attempts by Israel to drag Lebanon and Syria into an escalation in the form of something less than a war but more than an operation,” Kuwaiti newspaper Al-Rai reported on Saturday. The paper quoted sources as saying that the Lebanese terror organization believes Israel is preparing to take some kind of action, because Jerusalem believes that “the situation is critical and is being put to the test” in light of the nuclear agreement signed with Iran.

Headline: Report: Hezbollah Recruiting Fatah Members to Attack Israel

Hezbollah is reportedly upping its attempts to recruit Palestinians living in Judea and Samaria to carry out attacks on its behalf, according to Palestinian Authority sources. The Lebanon-based terrorist group is reportedly attempting to revive its terrorist network in the region by reaching out to disgruntled members of the Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigade, a terrorist group that functions as the armed wing of Mahmoud Abbas’s Fatah faction. During the Second Intifada Hezbollah, under instruction from Iran, recruited extensively among Fatah members, training and arming them to attack Israeli targets. Those efforts reached their height in 2004-2005, with tens of thousands of dollars being doled-out to recruits as an incentive to carry out attacks. Since then the efforts largely petered out for a number of reasons, including Israel’s intensive security operations and the PA’s own crackdown to prevent challenges to its authority in Judea and Samaria. However, a PA security source told the Arabic Al-Masdar site Hezbollah recruitment attempts “never really disappeared,” and in recent months had escalated significantly. With Iran emboldened by the prospect of billions of dollars of sanctions relief due to the recent deal reached with world powers over its nuclear program, it is widely acknowledged even by supporters of the deal that Tehran will use some of those funds to increase support for its numerous terrorist proxies. But Hezbollah, Iran’s most powerful proxy group, is unlikely to mount a frontal attack against Israel from Lebanon in the near future, given that it is already embroiled in several regional wars – in Syria, Iraq and to a lesser extent Yemen. Instead, it is attempting to reestablish an operations base in Judea and Samaria, and recruit local Arabs carry out attacks against Israelis both in that region and elsewhere in Israel.

Headline: Lebanese ‘Palestinian Camp’ Embroiled in Faction Gunbattles

Headline: Lebanese army secures central Beirut after ‘trash protest’ erupts in clashes

A “ceasefire” was agreed upon in a meeting on Sunday in Lebanon’s largest Palestinian “refugee camp,” Ain al-Hilweh, located in Lebanon’s south, reports the Palestinian Arab Ma’an News Agency. That ceasefire came after a day of serious clashes on Saturday, when three people were killed and no less than 18 others were wounded during a failed assassination attempt against Ashraf al-Armoushi, the Fatah security chief of the town. The Jund al-Sham terrorist group reportedly tried to assassinate al-Armoushi; it is unclear if the group took part in the “ceasefire” talks, meaning the ceasefire may be one-sided in nature. Palestinian Authority (PA) ambassador to Lebanon Ashraf Dabbour was said to have taken part in the talks. Security forces were deployed in Ain al-Hilweh to prevent renewed clashes. Al-Armoushi came under fire in the assassination attempt while attending a funeral. According to Lebanese media he emerged unscathed, but at least two Fatah members were killed and around 18 other residents were wounded in the following gun battles between the terror groups.

Headline: Saudi general killed in cross-border fire from Yemen

Unknown assailants fired on a police patrol in Saudi Arabia’s Red Sea city of Jeddah late Sunday, injuring an officer, the country’s official media reported Monday. Saudi Press Agency quoted an unnamed Mecca police spokesman as saying security forces were investigating the incident. He did not say whether Islamist militants, who have staged a series of attacks on police in Riyadh, were suspected. Jeddah is the second largest Saudi city and a major port. It is traditionally more socially liberal that the capital Riyadh and also the historical gateway for pilgrims to the Islamic holy sites of Mecca and Medina. Supporters of ISIS have shot at two Saudi police patrols, bombed a mosque used by the security services and two others used by members of the Shiite Muslim minority, killing 40 people. The Interior Ministry said last month it had detained 431 suspected supporters of ISIS and thwarted other attacks on mosques, security forces and a diplomatic mission.

The attack occurred in the Nile Delta province of Baheira, 260 kilometres (160 miles) north of Cairo, while the policemen were travelling to work in a civilian bus. “Two policemen were killed and 24 others were wounded, including two seriously,” said health ministry spokesman Hossam Abdel Ghaffar. A local health official earlier told AFP that one policeman had died in the blast. Jihadists have killed scores of police and soldiers since an Islamist insurgency swelled in the wake of the 2013 overthrow of president Mohamed Morsi, the country’s first democratically elected president who took office following the 2011 ouster of longtime ruler Hosni Mubarak. The insurgency has been spearheaded by Egypt’s IS affiliate which has launched regular attacks against security forces.

Syria Headline:   Rebels shell prison near Damascus, killing 10

Insurgents shelled the central prison near the Syrian capital Damascus Sunday as well as residential neighborhoods in the city, killing at least 11 and wounding more than 40. The Interior Ministry statement, carried by state TV, said the shelling of the prison area killed 10, seven of which were women, and wounded 40. It said the shelling targeted the visitors’ area of the jail, known as Adra Prison, just northeast of Damascus. The statement did not say which specific insurgent group was responsible for the attack. Later Sunday, insurgents fired shells into residential neighborhoods in Damascus killing two people and wounding seven, according to state TV. Insurgents have shelled Damascus on several occasions in recent weeks, killing and wounding dozens of people. Sunday’s shelling of Adra Prison and nearby areas came a day after government airstrikes on a Damascus suburb killed more than 34 people and wounded dozens in the latest wave of government attacks on the crowded rebel-held area.

Syria Headline:   Activists say ISIS destroys temple at ancient Palmyra site

Islamic State (ISIS) militants have destroyed a temple at Syria’s ancient ruins of Palmyra, activists said Sunday, realizing the worst fears archaeologists had for the 2,000-year-old Roman-era city after the extremists seized it and beheaded a local scholar. Palmyra, one of the Middle East’s most spectacular archaeological sites and a UNESCO World Heritage site, sits near the modern Syrian city of the same name. Activists said the militants used explosives to blow up the Baalshamin Temple on its grounds, the blast so powerful it also damaged some of the Roman columns around it. The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said Sunday night that the temple was blown up a month ago. Turkey-based activist Osama al-Khatib, who is originally from Palmyra, said the temple was blown up Sunday. Both said the extremists used a large amount of explosives to destroy it.

Syria’s al-Qaeda affiliate al-Nusra Front has abducted a Kurdish commander from the People’s Protection Units (YPG) in Afrin region of Aleppo province, northeast Syria, Kurdish sources reported on Sunday. The YPG General Command said in a statement, of which ARA News received a copy, that al-Nusra Front (Jabhat al-Nusra) has abducted the Kurdish commander Jamal Efrini. “We’ve lost contact with the commander for days, before we discover that Nusra militants have abducted him at a checkpoint on the highway of Afrin-Aleppo,” the YPG leadership said on Sunday. The General Command also stressed its concerns about the health conditions of Efrini, who disappeared one week ago. “We will respond to this extreme violation with force if al-Nusra didn’t release Jamal (Efrini),” the statement added. “This radical group (in reference to Nusra) should know that we’ve respected the truce, but we won’t remain silent amid such violations.” Al-Nusra Front hasn’t commented on the YPG’s accusation yet.

Iran on Saturday unveiled a new surface-to-surface missile it said could strike targets with pin-point accuracy within a range of 500 km (310 miles) and it said military might was a precondition for peace and effective diplomacy. The defense ministry’s unveiling of the solid-fuel missile, named Fateh 313, came little more than a month after Iran and world powers reached a deal that requires Tehran to abide by new limits on its nuclear program in return for Western governments easing economic sanctions. According to that deal, any transfer to Iran of ballistic missile technology during the next eight years will be subject to the approval of the United Nations Security Council, and the United States has promised to veto any such requests. An arms embargo on conventional weapons also stays, preventing their import and export for five years. But Iran has said it will not follow parts of the nuclear deal that restricts its military capabilities, a stance reaffirmed by President Hassan Rouhani on Saturday.

Headline:  Boko Haram strengthens ties with ISIL, sends fighters to Libya

Nigerian-based terror group Boko Haram has bolstered its alliance with Islamic State of Iraq and Levant (ISIL) by sending jihadists to fight alongside ISIL in Libya. Boko Haram pledged allegiance to ISIL in March. In June, ISIL declared territory seized by Boko Haram as its West African province. In addition to sending fighters to Libya, Boko Haram members have also recently been arrested in Lebanon, and India and Nigeria has blocked thousands of suspected jihadists from leaving the country. According to Nigeria analyst Jacob Zenn, an estimated 80 to 200 Boko Haram fighters are in the Libyan city of Sirte, the site of heavy fighting between ISIL and Libyan government forces. “The openness of migration routes from Nigeria through eastern Niger to Libya makes travel … fairly straightforward, and the Islamic State can easily afford to pay smugglers to carry militants (and weapons) along that route,” Zenn wrote in The Sentinel magazine of the Washington-based Jamestown Foundation. On Aug. 15 Lebanese authorities arrested hard-line ISIL cleric Ahmad al-Assir at Beirut airport. They said he planned to fly to Nigeria on a forged Palestinian passport with a Nigerian visa. Two Nigerians studying in India were arrested Aug. 7 as they tried to cross illegally into Pakistan to join ISIL. The Nigeria Immigration Service reported barring 23,472 people from leaving the country between January 2014 and March 2015. “There have been reports in recent times of some Nigerians departing to join terrorist groups especially in the Middle East and North Africa,” said PR Nigeria, which publishes government news.

At least 18 people were killed in Somalia on Saturday in two separate bomb attacks carried out by suspected al-Shabab insurgents, officials said. In the first attack, 14 soldiers were killed and more than 20 wounded when militants drove an explosives-laden vehicle into a training site for African Union peacekeepers from Kenya and Somali soldiers in the southern port city of Kismayo. The second attack occurred in the capital, Mogadishu, where four people were killed and at least 10 others wounded, police official Abdullah Osoble said. He said a car bomb exploded near a police station close to a settlement used by displaced persons. There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the Mogadishu attack, although it bore the hallmarks of al-Shabab. Despite being forced out of many of their strongholds, the group is still able to launch lethal attacks in the capital and elsewhere in Somalia.

Headline: Protesters in Germany attack refugee buses shouting ‘foreigners out’

Up to 1,000 protesters have clashed with police in eastern Germany in riots reportedly sparked by the arrival of 250 migrants. Police said protesters shouting “foreigners out” and carrying banners against the “asylum flood” threw bottles and stones at busloads of asylum seekers arriving in Heidenau, near Dresden. At least 31 officers were hurt in violent scuffles as police used tear gas to disperse crowds. Peaceful demonstrations began after news spread that the town was welcoming a large number of refugees who are set to be housed in an empty building. The protest was hijacked by a group of far-right radicals, many belonging to the militant National Democratic Party (NPD), considered a neo-Nazi organisation. “After the riots, the situation is now calm,” a police spokesman told Tagesspiegel online, adding it was not yet clear how many people had been injured or how many arrests had been made.

Headline: US military depot blast, steel plant blaze hit Tokyo

The explosion at the US Army’s Sagami General Depot in the city of Sagamihara, some 25 miles (40 kilometres) southwest of Tokyo, sent sparks shooting into the sky and triggered a blaze that burned through the night, but there were no reports of injuries. Japanese and US base firefighters delayed battling the fire while the contents of the building were assessed. Witnesses said they initially feared a bomb had gone off at the military installation. The explosion at the depot — which occupies about 200 hectares (two square kilometres) and employs nearly 600 people — rattled the windows of nearby buildings. “I thought the American military facility came under a terrorist attack,” a local security guard told Jiji Press news agency. The depot stores supplies and acts as a repair centre for military vehicles. The Pentagon said the cause of the explosion was not immediately known, but the building did not store ammunition or “radiological materials”. Nearby buildings were not damaged. “The storage building is not designated as a hazardous material storage facility as some initial reports indicated,” US Navy Commander Bill Urban, a spokesman, said in a statement. “Inside the building that exploded were canisters of compressed gases: nitrogen, oxygen, freon and air. “The cause of the explosion… is under investigation. There are no indications of injuries.”

Headline: Protests over draft Nepal charter turn violent, nine dead

At least nine people were killed in Nepal on Monday when demonstrators attacked police with spears, knives, axes and scythes during a protest against proposals for administrative reform in the Himalayan country. One police officer died when protesters surrounded him and set him ablaze, Home Minister Bam Dev Gautam told parliament. A district official gave the death toll as nine, but media reports said as many as 20 people – most of them police – may have died. State television reported that the army was mobilized to quell the protests in the low-lying far west of the country close to the border with India.Thousands of people were protesting in the town of Tikapur against a government-backed plan to include their area in a hilly province, part of a regional overhaul envisaged in a new federal constitution expected to be finalised this month. The protesters, mainly from ethnic Tharu community, are demanding a separate province comprising eight districts in the southwestern plains for themselves. The government and major political parties hope that the new constitution, which divides the nation into seven federal states, will boost economic development in Nepal, which is still reeling from two devastating earthquakes that killed 8,900 people this year. But different ethnic groups have been protesting against the plan and demanding regional autonomy. Four demonstrators have died in the past two weeks in violent protests across Nepal.

Headline: Yemen’s pro-Hadi forces mobilize to retake Sanaa

Al-Qaeda militants have seized control of key areas in and around the port city of Aden, high-ranking security officials said Saturday. Fighters took Tawahi district, home to a presidential palace and Aden’s main port, and were patrolling the streets, some carrying black banners, the officials said. The militants also took Crater, Aden’s commercial center, and parts of Dar Saad town, just north of Aden, including an army base that they turned into a training camp. Security officials near the seized base, in Dar Saad’s al-Lohoum district, say it is now training some 200 militants. The officials, who hail from the military, security forces and police, spoke on condition of anonymity because they weren’t authorized to speak to journalists. They said Al-Qaeda’s gains came in recent weeks in the wake of fighting in Aden between Shiite rebels and pro-government forces, after the front moved outside the city. Al-Qaeda also has a presence in Breiqa city, west of Aden, and nearby al-Khadra city, the officials added.

Headline: Ukraine Vows to Increase Troops to Fend off Rebel Attacks

Ukraine’s president vowed to increase troop numbers to fend off attacks by Russia-backed separatist rebels and warned his countrymen that there is still the threat of a “large-scale invasion,” in an impassioned speech to mark Independence Day on Monday. Speaking during a military parade, President Petro Poroshenko said Ukraine must not be complacent even though hostilities have largely died down. In a show of force, thousands of Ukrainian servicemen marched in downtown Kiev on to mark the country’s independence from the Soviet Union on Aug. 24, 1991. “We stand for peace, but we are not pacifists,” Poroshenko said. “We must get through the 25th year of independence as if on brittle ice. We must understand that the smallest misstep could be fatal. The war for independence is still ongoing.” Poroshenko didn’t say how many more troops he would send to eastern Ukraine. He claimed that Russia had massed about 50,000 troops on the border with Ukraine and had supplied the rebels with about 500 tanks and 400 pieces of artillery. Poroshenko warned that Russia is wary of an outright invasion and is instead developing another strategy: sow discord across all of Ukraine and thus spoil its relations with its Western allies.

Wall Street prepares for meltdown U.S. stock futures pointed to a sharply lower open Monday after a selloff on Friday that dragged major indexes to four-year lows. U.S. stock index futures screamed lower, with Dow futures tumbling as much as 350 points, as fears surrounding the health of China’s economy multiplied.

Headline: Stock markets in the Middle East fall sharply

Stock markets in the Middle East have fallen sharply after a difficult week for all major global share indexes. The Dubai Financial Market closed down 7%, while the Saudi exchange also lost 7% after Fitch ratings agency cut its outlook for the country. Last week, the Dow Jones in the US fell 6%, while the UK’s FTSE 100 posted its biggest weekly loss this year of 5%. Investors are concerned about a slowdown in China and the knock-on effects for the global economy. Both France’s Cac 40 and Germany’s Dax indexes lost 7% of their value last week. In the Middle East, there is particular concern about low oil prices, which are down by more than a half this year and have been falling steadily since May, when Brent Crude stood at $68 a barrel. A barrel now costs $45. This is mainly due to an abundance of supply, in large part from from US shale oil producers, which are weakening OPEC’s once dominant position in global oil markets. Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Kuwait, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates are all members of OPEC. Moods were further dampened by a report from Fitch which cut the agency’s outlook on Saudi Arabia from “stable” to “negative”. The move reflects concerns about the future of the country’s finances, which are heavily dependent on revenues from exporting oil. These worries come against a backdrop of falling global stock markets, reflecting widespread fears about the pace of the slowdown in the Chinese economy.

Headline: With many Ebola survivors ailing, doctors evaluate situation

Lingering health problems afflicting many of the roughly 13,000 Ebola survivors have galvanized global and local health officials to find out how widespread the ailments are, and how to remedy them. The World Health Organization calls it an emergency within an emergency. Many of the survivors have vision and hearing issues. Some others experience physical and emotional pains, fatigue and other problems. The medical community is negotiating uncharted waters as it tries to measure the scale of this problem that comes on the tail end of the biggest Ebola outbreak in history. “If we can find out this kind of information, hopefully we can help other Ebola survivors in the future,” Dr. Zan Yeong, an eye specialist involved in a study of health problems in survivors in Liberia, told The Associated Press. Only about 40 percent of those infected have survived Ebola, according to WHO estimates. But while the survivors beat the odds, preliminary research shows that many are still suffering. Around half those who received post-recovery check-ups have joint pain, said Dr. Daniel Bausch, an Ebola expert and consultant for WHO.

South Korean President Park Geun-hye demanded on Monday that North Korea apologize over recent landmine blasts, even as the bitter rivals held marathon talks to defuse tensions that have brought the peninsula back to the brink of armed conflict. Park said anti-North propaganda broadcasts would continue unless Pyongyang took responsibility for landmine explosions early this month that wounded two South Korean soldiers in the Demilitarised Zone (DMZ) separating the two countries. North Korea denies it laid the mines. Seoul and Pyongyang have remained technically in a state of war since the 1950-53 Korean war ended in a truce, rather than a peace treaty. The landmine blasts escalated into a crisis that saw both sides exchange artillery fire on Thursday and ramp up their military readiness. The United Nations, the United States and the North’s lone major ally, China, have all called for calm.

Satan worshipers launched a counter-protest against pro-lifers outside the Detriot and Ferndale, Michigan Planned Parenthood locations Saturday. Clad in black robes, members of the Satanic Temple of Detriot drenched bound women with milk, simulating water-boarding to “illustrate the theocratic agenda imposed upon female bodies.” The milk symbolized breast milk, one of the protest organizers explained on Facebook. The group attached a symbol of their temple to the American flag and held up a sign that read, “America is not a theocracy. End forced motherhood.” “The Satanic Temple strongly opposes the promotion of misinformation and believes that all people are entitled to make informed decisions about their health, family and future without coercion,” says the group’s web site. “We consider our action a form of worship; the rejection of tyranny is an affirmation of selfhood. So long as perverted theocratic systems of power attempt to manipulate our communities and distort truths for political gain, we will rebel.”
