Headline: After declaring autonomy, Syrian Kurds ‘open to ties with Israel’

After the main Syrian Kurdish group officially declared areas under its control in northern Syria a federalized autonomous region this week, the Syrian regime and opposition, as well as Turkey, immediately rejected the declaration. [The Syrian Kurds] are a community of people who are willing to cooperate with Israel,” Professor Ofra Bengio, head of the Kurdish studies program at Tel Aviv University, told The Times of Israel on Thursday. There have not been any pro-Israel public declarations by Kurdish Syrians leaders, Bengio said, “but I know some that some have been to Israel behind the scenes but do not publicize it.” The group was also not given a seat at the table of peace negotiations taking place in Geneva. Despite not being recognized, the Syrian Kurds have fully governed their region for two years. Their governance has been overwhelmingly democratic, egalitarian and secular in a region where totalitarian and Islamist ideologies prevail. The only other areas in the Middle East that can be characterized in this way are the Kurdish Regional Government (KRG) in Iraq — where minorities are well-protected under new laws — and Israel.

Headline: Trouble Brewing in Lebanon: Beirut Facing New ‘Cedar Revolution’

Is Lebanon teetering on the edge of a new civil war? French intellectual Thierry Meyssan suggests that the failure of a regime change operation in Syria will prompt Saudi Arabia and its Western backers to seek a new target in the Middle East. Lebanon’s much discussed “garbage crisis” is by no means an accident, but one link in the chain of political events which could escalate into social turmoil, Thierry Meyssan, French intellectual, founder and chairman of Voltaire Network and the Axis for Peace Conference, writes. The Lebanese government is trying to find the way out of the country’s 7-month-long trash crisis, which “suddenly” began in August 2015. According to Meyssan, there is serious trouble brewing in Lebanon. “Over the last seven months however, the country has been shaken by the ‘garbage crisis’ and the resulting demonstrations which could have led to a second ‘Cedar Revolution,’ then by a crisis of confidence with Saudi Arabia and its allies, and finally by the international accusations against Hezbollah,” the journalist notes, adding that the combination of the three events looks rather sinister. Fanning the flames of the ongoing crisis, Saudi Arabia forbade its subjects to travel to Lebanon under the pretext of Beirut’s “inappropriate” reaction to Riyadh’s decapitation of peaceful cleric Nimr al-Nimr. The execution of al-Nimr prompted a wave of indignation among the Shiite populations of the world, including Lebanon.

Headline:   U.N. Condemns Airstrikes That Killed 106 in Yemen

Headline: Saudi Arabia to scale down military operations in Yemen

The top United Nations human rights official condemned the Saudi-led coalition fighting in Yemen on Friday, citing repeated attacks on civilian targets in airstrikes, including an attack on a crowded village market this week that killed 106 people. United Nations officials who went to the site of the attack on Tuesday in Hajjah Province found that airstrikes there had killed 106 people, including 24 children, making them the deadliest episode in the coalition’s yearlong intervention. The Saudis are backing the contested government of President Abdu Rabbu Mansour Hadi against rebels, known as the Houthis, who are aligned with the former President Ali Abdullah Saleh. The Saudis have been pressuring the United States for support in the conflict, saying that their archrival, Iran, is backing the Houthis. United Nations officials recorded the names of 96 people who died in the strikes, and they found 10 more bodies that were burned beyond recognition. An additional 40 people were wounded, “but that may be a low estimate,” said Rupert Colville, a spokesman for the high commissioner for human rights, Zeid Ra’ad al-Hussein. The Saudi-led coalition has repeatedly denied striking civilian targets during operations against Houthi rebels and affiliated forces. But United Nations officials said they had found no evidence of any military targets near the scene of the airstrikes, and Mr. al-Hussein said that may amount to a violation of international law.

In three separate incidents in the northern part of the Sinai Peninsula on Thursday morning, six Egyptian policemen were killed and about 10 were injured in ISIS attacks using roadside bombs, sniper fire on police positions and mortar fire on a police base. Egyptian newspaper Al-Masry Al-Youm added that three ISIS gunmen were killed in a shootout with policemen in the town of Sheikh Zuwayed.  Meanwhile, Egyptian President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi has warned Western powers Libya could spiral out of control if they try to intervene militarily in the conflict-wracked North African state. Speaking in a rare interview, the military-backed ruler of one of the region’s biggest powers said the West and its allies should instead concentrate on strengthening the army of Libya’s internationally recognized government and let it do the job of stabilising the country.

The Islamic State (ISIS) group has claimed the killing of five Russian troops in fighting near the ancient Syrian city of Palmyra. “The soldiers of the caliphate, by the grace of God, have killed five Russian soldiers and six members” of the Syrian army, ISIS said in a statement. The group also claimed the killing of several members of the Lebanese Iran-proxy Hezbollah terror group in fighting near Palmyra. A website linked to ISIS, Aamaq, carried a similar claim, adding that one of the Russians killed was a military adviser. “Four of the Russian soldiers were killed in Qasr al-Halabat west of Palmyra during an attempt to storm the area that ISIS forces foiled, while the adviser whose corpse was shown in a video distributed by the agency died (Thursday) in the Dawa area,” Aamaq claimed. The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights monitor said that Russian advisers were present near Palmyra, but could not confirm whether any Russian forces had been killed there in recent days.

Iraq Headline: Followers of Iraqi cleric Sadr rally in Baghdad

Thousands of Iraqis staged a protest on Friday outside the capital Baghdad’s heavily fortified Green Zone to demand anti-corrpution measures, heeding a call by influential Shiiite cleric Moqtada al-Sadr. At around 11 a.m. (0800 GMT), riot police stood aside and allowed leaders of the demonstrators to cut and pull aside barbed wire barriers to allow them to cross a bridge that leads to the zone, which houses government offices, the parliament and embassies. “Let’s get rid of them, they’re all thieves!”, chanted the demonstrators as they rushed across the bridge, aiming to hold their weekly Friday prayer at a Green Zone gate that leads to the parliament building. The Interior Ministry earlier said it had not authorized any sit-down protest, amid concern about clashes with the forces guarding the zone. Sadr earlier rejected the calls to cancel a planned sit-in of the Green Zone, which he called “a bastion of support for corruption.” He published a statement on his website on Thursday in response to politicians who asked him to drop the protest over concern that it could lead to violence near the sensitive district, which houses government offices and embassies. Sadr called for the sit-in last week to press Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi to replace cabinet ministers with technocrats unaffiliated with political parties in order to counter systemic political patronage that has abetted corruption.

Kurdish Headline: Syrian rebels condemn Kurdish-led moves towards regional autonomy

Just four days after drawing down the bulk of Russian forces in Syria, President Vladimir Putin was quietly redrawing the Syrian map on federal lines, and planting Russian influence in its first semiautonomous region. debkafile’s intelligence sources report that the Russian leader’s hand was behind the establishment of the Syrian Kurdish federal region on March 17, at a meeting of Kurdish Democratic Union Party leaders in the Syrian town of Rmeilan. The new self-ruling entity covers three Kurdish-controlled enclaves:: Jazira, Hassakeh and Qamishli and the two cities of Kobani and Afrin, They include areas captured in battle from the Islamic State. One of the DUP leaders, Nawaf Khalil, noted the presence at the ceremony of representatives of the three enclaves, some parts of which are still controlled either by the Syrian army, Syrian rebel groups or ISIS. The Syrian Kurds are expected next to fight, with Russian backing, to connect the three enclaves into a contiguous self-ruled territory 500-kilometer long, adjacent to the Turkish border. Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan has warned repeatedly that Ankara would not tolerate the establishment of Kurdish self-rule in Syria and would send his army across the border to prevent it. Our sources report that Putin has assured Kurdish leaders that the Russian air force would be there to defend the new region if Turkey invaded.

Note from Frank

We are watching this very closely because if the Kurds remain and hold their autonomy, then it would be more plausible that Scripture is pointing to Kurdistan rather than Iran as the “kingdom of the North” however the wrench in the gear would be if Iran goes after the Kurds and retakes the land, then it would be Iran that the Lord is revealing. http://endtimesresearchministry.com/the-kurds-in-prophecy-special-post-september-6-2014/

People killed in crossfire, burned alive in basements. Tanks in the streets and indefinite curfews – Kurds in Turkey’s southeast have been living a nightmare ever since Ankara started a crackdown on Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) militants in August 2015. The map is based on a report by the Human Rights Foundation of Turkey from January 2016. It recorded curfews in Turkey’s south-east between August 16, 2015 and January 21,2016. The second-largest city in southeastern Turkey with highly-developed infrastructure, Diyarbakir is gradually becoming a city of the dead and missing. The unofficial capital of the Kurdish area of Turkey, the city has seen repeated shelling since July 2015. It was placed under two curfews in December. On March 16, following clashes between Kurdish militants and Turkish forces, Ankara once again imposed an indefinite curfew in some parts of the city. Ever since the military operations were launched in the city, “tens of thousands” of people have been forced to flee their homes, according to reports from Republican Peoples Party (CHP) said.

Headline:   Sudan Threatens to Close Border with South Sudan

Sudan is threatening to close its border with South Sudan and deport more than 300,000 South Sudanese students on grounds that the South is supporting rebels fighting the government of President Omar al-Bashir. Ibrahim Mohamud Hamid, a senior assistant to Bashir, aired the accusation and warnings on Thursday. South Sudan’s Foreign Minister Barnaba Marial Benjamin denied his government is supporting rebels of the Sudan People’s Liberation Army, or SPLA North, who are fighting the Sudanese government in Southern Kordofan and Blue Nile states. Marial, speaking to VOA’s South Sudan in Focus program, said his country is working to bring peace to Southern Kordofan and Blue Nile. “President Salva (Kiir) and the government are fully committed to see that there is peace in Sudan and peace in South Sudan,” he said.  “And the president is very clear that we will not support any armed insurgency against the Republic of Sudan.” Sudan and South Sudan signed a cooperation agreement four years ago to stop supporting rebels in each other’s territory, to promote trade and to create two viable states. But the border was closed until earlier this year, when Sudanese President Bashir ordered it open to help the South cope with its ongoing economic crisis, caused by the country’s civil war.

Headline:   EU Leaders Discuss Scaling Up Libya Naval Operation

European leaders discussed powering up the bloc’s naval operation to fight people-smuggling gangs off the Libyan coast on Friday, as they sought to prevent a pickup of migrant flows from North Africa into Europe, people familiar with the discussions said. U.K. Prime Minister David Cameron told EU leaders gathered in Brussels on Thursday night that he was prepared to extend the mission of Royal Navy vessel HMS Enterprise in the central Mediterranean at least until the summer and wanted to see it deployed in Libyan territorial waters. Mr. Cameron discussed Libya early afternoon on Friday with the leaders of France, Germany, Italy, Spain and Malta. EU foreign policy chief Federica Mogherini also attended. An EU official said Ms. Mogherini told the leaders she will call a joint meeting of EU foreign and defense ministers on Libya on April 18 in Luxembourg to discuss the bloc’s plans. The EU launched Operation Sophia in May 2015 as part of its response to the migration crisis. At the time, hundreds were dying every month on a treacherous sea journey across the Mediterranean from Libya into Europe. The success of the operation has been hampered by the continuing conflict in Libya, where two rival factions are vying for power and who have so far resisted United Nations-led efforts to broker a unity government. That has meant the EU has been unable to win Libyan government permission to expand the mission. While the naval operation is now able to stop, seize and arrest suspected smugglers on boats carrying migrants in the high seas, it is not able to operate in Libyan waters. That permission could only come once a unity government is in place in Libya.

Headline:     War looms in Western Sahara

Tensions are boiling over in the Western Sahara, a region Morocco has occupied since 1976, and local Sahrawi groups warn that if the UN pulls out its troops from the region in a concession to the Moroccan government, war will likely follow. Morocco has occupied the region since it was handed to its troops by Spain, when Madrid ended its colony there. The Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic (SADR) holds a government-in-exile in Algeria, arguing for its rights to rule over the region, and the Algerian-backed Polisario Front has been fighting for independence in the disputed territory. If the UN ends its peacekeeping mission in the vast and mineral-rich Western Sahara that would be “the shortest way to the resumption of war,” warned Polisario Front’s UN representative Ahmed  Boukhari, as reported by Associated Press on Friday. “If there is no mission, there is a vacuum and an invitation to war,” he warned, calling on the UN Security Council to maintain the UN presence in the region. Morocco on Thursday ordered the UN to evacuate its 84 international peacekeepers within three days from Western Sahara, and announced Morocco is cancelling $3 million in funding for the UN operation.

Headline: Mass rallies as Brazil political crisis deepens

Brazil faced a deepening political crisis and mass street protests Friday as opponents and backers of President Dilma Rousseff mobilized after lawmakers renewed efforts to drive her from office.
With Rousseff fighting an impeachment drive and financial markets apparently betting on a collapse of her government, her embattled left-wing support base vowed to take to the streets Friday.
Late Thursday, police in Brasilia fired tear gas and stun grenades to keep at bay angry protesters demanding her resignation. The ongoing protests capped a day of political drama as lawmakers relaunched impeachment proceedings against Rousseff, 68. The courts, meanwhile, blocked her bid to bring her powerful predecessor Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva into the cabinet. Scores of protesters camped overnight near the headquarters of the anti-Rousseff FIESP industry federation in Sao Paulo, vowing to stay put until she quits. “We are going to protest like they did in Ukraine. There will be more of us tomorrow,” said one protester, Cristiane Galvao, 44, member of a group called Beloved Homeland Brazil.

The report was based on South Korea’s defense ministry, whose spokesman said the missile was launched from Sukchon in the country’s southwest and flew 800 kilometers (500 miles) into the East Sea, also called the Sea of Japan. The spokesman did not confirm the type of missile, but South Korea’s Yonhap news agency cited military sources as saying  it was a Rodong missile, a scaled up Scud variant with a maximum range of around 1,300 kilometers. Kim has upped his rhetoric in recent days, saying last week his country now possesses nuclear warheads small enough to fit on ballistic missiles.

Headline: Global Government Debt Is Actually Triple What We Thought, Thanks to Pensions

Government debt in 20 industrialized countries stands at $44 trillion. But it’s actually a lot more than that, according to a new report. After factoring in public pension and other retirement liabilities, the debt levels nearly triple to a staggering $122 trillion. That’s the math according to a new report from Citigroup Inc report called, “The Coming Pensions Crisis,” which analyzed government pension liabilities from 20 countries that are members of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development . “It is really a ticking time bomb,” said Charles Millard, Citi’s head of pension relations and former head of the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation, the U.S. safety net for private-sector pensions. To put the unstated debt levels in perspective: The additional unstated $78 trillion in retirement-related debt is equivalent to a single year of global economic output. Citi researchers measured government pension liabilities, a combination of Social Security and public-sector pension obligations, finding the average country was carrying retirement debt of 190% versus gross domestic product—well above a 100% threshold that many experts consider concerning.

The symptoms of Elizabethkingia infection, like those of many other bacterial infections, can include fever, shortness of breath, chills or an infection of the skin tissues called cellulitis, according to the Wisconsin Department of Health Services. To be sure it’s Elizabethkingia and not other bacteria causing the infection, patients need their blood tested by a healthcare professional. Officials have some clues as to why Elizabethkingia is affecting people. Most of the infected patients are over 65 and have another major health issue, indicating that the bacteria could infect them because their immune systems are compromised—scientists know that Elizabethkingia is opportunistic, based on previous outbreaks. But the bacteria are fairly common in the environment—it’s the predominant bacterial species in the gut of some kinds of mosquito, and it’s often found in soil. That makes researchers question just what’s going on here that makes it so deadly. And officials haven’t found any similarities—some were in nursing homes and some were not, some were infected while in the hospital and others weren’t, according to the Washington Post. The cases are geographically spread out. Tests of water—the source of some outbreaks in hospitals in the past—came back negative. And yet, almost all the bacteria have the same genetic code, indicating that they very likely came from the same source, Stat News reports. That means that officials are going to have to investigate a huge number of other factors, including medications and food, in order to find a pattern. This Elizabethkingia outbreak, the largest and most deadly to date, is particularly disturbing because the bacteria are resistant to most antibiotics, making it difficult to treat even if it’s caught early.

Headline: Ebola outbreak: Guinea confirms two new cases

Two new Ebola cases have been confirmed in Guinea, almost three months after it celebrated the end of the outbreak. Three other members of the family are suspected to have recently died from the virus. The cases were reported in the southern region of Nzerekore, where the outbreak began in December 2013. The new cases were reported by the World Health Organization (WHO) hours after it declared the latest Ebola flare-up to be over in Sierra Leone. A risk of new flare-ups remains because Ebola can persist in body fluids of some survivors for months after they recover. A very small number of new cases have been linked to sexual transmission. The world is in new territory here – scientists are still learning as the worst Ebola outbreak in history continues to unfold.

Headline:   Stabbing Surge Stumps NYC Police, Sows Fear Among Residents

New York City has seen a 20 percent increase in stabbings this year compared with last, and police say they don’t understand why it’s happening or what to do about it. While most of the attacks are part of domestic disputes in homes, random assaults without apparent motives are on the rise. As of March 13, police recorded 809 incidents, up from 673 last year. So far there have been 20 attacks in the subways — nine more than last year — including a fatal encounter Wednesday in a Harlem station. Kitchen knives, screw drivers, box cutters and machetes are among the weapons used. The stabbings have overshadowed a promising trend showing a 23 percent decline in homicides and a 12 percent drop in shootings compared to last year. Tabloids reporting a stabbing almost every day in the most populous U.S. city have heightened the police department’s concern about their impact on the public. “The numbers are relatively very small, but stabbings are occurring all over the city,” Robert Boyce, the department’s chief of detectives, said in a telephone interview. “The random nature of some of these crimes affect everyone because it’s disturbing when it happens to just regular folks.”
