New to my book in the chapter on God’s curse: read page 430 concerning the April 1, 2015 that Obama signed a nuke deal with Iran! From death to life. Jesus Christ is real and when He wants people to hear about Him He does things to people that they not understand until years later. You will see an amazing story that is true in the video below. It was clear to me that when Jesus saved this man He know years later he would be standing at the UN witnessing to the world leaders.
Headline: Mortar Rounds on Golan Heights Were Fired by ISIS The two mortar rounds fired on Israel’s Golan Heights from Syria on Tuesday in estimated “spillover” were launched by the brutal Islamic State (ISIS) terrorist organization, which is the closest it’s ever been to the Israeli border with Syria. The ISIS-linked Jaish al-Jihad has captured the border town of Qahtaniya in southern Quneitra province on the Syrian Golan, thereby taking up its closest position to Israel yet at a distance of just 2.5 to 3 kilometers (1.5-1.8 miles), according to Walla!. Qahtaniya had been in the hands of the Free Syrian Army and the Al Qaeda affiliate Nusra Front which had kept the status quo vis-a-vis Israel, concentrating their efforts against the Syrian regime of President Bashar al-Assad. Now that the town has fallen to ISIS, it may turn into a base of attacks against the Jewish state. On Tuesday morning Nusra Front launched an operation to try and recapture the town, with clashes between it and ISIS including machine gun fire, anti-tank missiles and mortar rounds. During the clash two mortar shells slammed into Israel near Kibbutz Ein Zivan. The “spillover” repeated on Wednesday, as machine gun fire hit the same area near Ein Zivan. Golan has been heating up lately, with four Arab terrorists being eliminated by the IDF on Sunday as they tried to place an explosive on the Israeli border. ***SEE ALSO SYRIA BELOW April 29, 2015 http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/194748#.VUDt-pMe2uQ Headline: Iran Tells Syria to Attack Israel on the Golan Heights Headline: DEBKA reveals: Hizballah officers land in Tehran with Syrian defense chief. Iran OKs anti-Israel strategy Syrian Defense Minister General Fahd al-Freij arrived in Iran on Tuesday for a rare two-day visit, the first since civil war broke out in Syria in 2011, and was reportedly told by his Iranian backers to attack Israel. Al-Freij was told by senior Iranian sources that Syria and Iran’s terror proxy in Lebanon, Hezbollah, need to open a war front against Israel on the Golan Heights, according to the Hebrew-language Channel 10. Iran told the Syrian defense minister to stir up conflict against Israel on the Golan, with the Islamic republic apparently unperturbed by the significant damage the move will cause to the Syrian regime, given that its goal is to expand its regional hegemony at all costs. The Golan has been heating up with four terrorists eliminated on Sunday while placing an explosive on the Israeli border, and a day later stray mortar shells struck from Syria, as Al-Qaeda affiliate Nusra Front and Islamic State (ISIS) fight on the Syrian side, right on Israel’s doorstep. In a press conference between al-Freij and his Iranian counterpart, the two said in a joint statement, “Syria, Iran and the axis of resistance will not allow enemies to achieve their goals in the region, and harm Syria and its firm position. Iran unreservedly supports Syria, and continues its strategic relations with it.” April 29, 2015

Headline: Gaza rally for Palestinian unity ends in scuffles A Palestinian unity rally attended by hundreds in Gaza on Wednesday ended in scuffles that showed the depth of divisions delaying reconciliation and recovery from a devastating war. Hamas Islamists, in control of Gaza since seizing the territory from the Western-backed Fatah movement in 2007, had given the green light for the gathering organized by university student groups with rival political affiliations. Waving Palestinian flags, the students called on Hamas and Fatah, led by President Mahmoud Abbas, to resolve differences plaguing the national unity government they formed last year. The two rival factions have failed to agree on control of Gaza’s border crossings. That dispute has delayed the flow of vital reconstruction aid after last summer’s 50-day war with Israel as well as the allocation of government ministries and salary payments for Hamas-hired civil servants. After violence broke out at Wednesday’s rally, in a Gaza neighborhood badly damaged during battles in July and August, demonstrators and Hamas gave conflicting accounts of the fracas. A Fatah loyalist accused Hamas of sending club-wielding men in civilian clothes into the crowd to attack rival student groups as uniformed police stood by. Several local journalists said they had also been assaulted by plain-clothed security men. “We were chanting slogans calling for an end to the division, urging reconstruction, but Hamas accused us of trying to politicize the rally,” the Fatah demonstrator said. Eyad al-Bozom, spokesman of the Hamas-led Interior Ministry, said demonstrators had been fighting among themselves and police stepped in to separate them. April 29, 2015

Headline: IDF training to retake Gaza in possible future round with Hamas Assessing that Hamas will continue to rule the Gaza Strip for the foreseeable future, the IDF is training for the possible reconquering of the entire coastal Palestinian territory in a future confrontation with the Islamic organization, the Times of Israel has learned. Despite the harsh blow Hamas and Islamic Jihad sustained in Operation Protective Edge last July and August, Israel’s military command is convinced that another round of fighting between Israel and Gaza is only a matter of time. The Israeli leadership sees no prospect of the Palestinian Authority gaining control of the Strip, as it continues to demand, and would prefer to face a weakened Hamas than the anarchy of unruly organizations, some of which harbor extremist Islamist ideologies.

Do not hold Your peace, And do not be still, O God! 2 For behold, Your enemies make a tumult; And those who hate You have lifted up their head. 3 They have taken crafty counsel against Your people, And consulted together against Your sheltered ones. 4 They have said, “Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation, That the name of Israel may be remembered no more.” (Psalm 83)
Lebanon
Headline: 6 Hezbollah Members Killed as Nusra Hits Qalamun Supply Vehicles Six Hizbullah members have been reportedly killed in an ambush by the Qaida-linked al-Nusra Front in Syria’s Qalamun region near the border with Lebanon. The pan-Arab Al-Jazeera television said Wednesday the six men were killed when al-Nusra targeted Hizbullah “supply vehicles” in Qalamun. Meanwhile, the UAE-based Orient News TV, which opposes the Assad regime, said al-Nusra carried out a “major operation” against a Hizbullah “supply convoy” in the Syrian region. “Activists reported a huge explosion against a Hizbullah supply convoy in Qalamun and the loud blast was heard across the region,” the TV network said. Al-Nusra announced on Twitter at the time that its fighters had planted landmines near posts controlled by Hizbullah and the Lebanese army in the border region. Flita is just across the Lebanese border from Arsal and is a crossing point which rebels and refugees have used regularly. ***SEE ALSO SYRIA BELOW

Headline: Saudi Arabia arrest 93 terror suspects, foils car bomb plot on US Embassy Saudi Arabia announced the arrest of 93 suspected terrorists with ties to ISIS Tuesday, including two who were allegedly planning a car bomb attack on the U.S. Embassy in Riyadh. Other potential targets for some of those arrested included residential compounds and prisons. Authorities said that the potential suicide car bombing at the Embassy involved three individuals — a Saudi national and two Syrian nationals residing in a Gulf state. The plot was uncovered Mar 13. and authorities took precautions at the Embassy and surrounding area before arresting two suspects the next day. The timing of the alleged attack coincides with a U.S. decision to halt all consular services for a week starting March 15 at the Embassy and diplomatic missions in Jiddah and Dhahran. April 29, 2015

At least 15 people were killed in heavy fighting between Houthi fighters and tribesmen in the oil-producing Marib province in central Yemen, tribal and medical sources said on Tuesday, as Saudi-led air strikes against the Iran-allied militia continued. At least 15 people were killed in the district of Sirwah and around Marib city, the sources said, as tribesmen allied with Hadi tried to stop Houthis and troops loyal to former president Ali Abdullah Saleh from advancing on the provincial capital. The Houthis say their advance on Marib is to flush out militants belonging to Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP), one of the most active branches of the Sunni Muslim militant network and an enemy of the Shiite Houthis.

Houthi rebels’ tanks and sniper fire killed at least 12 civilians overnight in Yemen’s Aden as they advanced toward the center of the city, residents said, and a Saudi-led coalition airdropped arms to anti-Houthi fighters in the city of Taiz. Fighting was still raging in the Khor Maksar district of Aden, seen as the main bulwark against the Houthis, early on Wednesday. Residents and city officials said the group shelled government buildings and residential neighborhoods controlled by their armed opponents, and dozens of families had fled. “The world, the coalition and the United Nations need to step in urgently to save our neighborhood, which has truly become a disaster area after this indiscriminate shelling,” resident Ali Mohammed Yahya said. Several Arab air strikes pounded Houthi positions in the city’s suburbs, residents said. About 200 km (120 miles) to the north, Arab aircraft dropped weapons for tribal and Islamist militiamen fighting the Houthis in the city of Taiz, where they have been battling the group with heavy artillery in city streets for days.

Headline: Iranian Plane Breaches Saudi No-Fly Zone in Yemen
Headline: Coalition jets bomb Sanaa airport to stop Iranian plane
An Iranian civilian plane breached the Saudi-led Arab coalition’s no-fly zone in Yemen, leading coalition forces to bomb a runway at the Sana’a airport on Tuesday to prevent it from landing. The no-fly zone has been in place since Operation Decisive Storm – meant to weaken via airstrikes the Iran-backed Shi’ite Houthi militia that seized power in Yemen – began on March 25, reports Al Arabiya. The incident is particularly concerning given the high likelihood that Iranian planes will provide weapons and support to the Houthis, given that it has backed the group in their push to conquer Yemen. While the Saudi operation was declared completed last Tuesday, it has morphed into a new phase termed Operation Restoration of Hope, as the Saudi-led military intervention continues. “Iranian actions towards Yemen are irresponsible. Defying the no-fly zone doesn’t serve the interest of Yemenis,” Saudi operation spokesperson Brig. Gen. Ahmed Asiri told Al Arabiya. Asiri said the plane did not follow orders to stop at the Bisha airport in Saudi Arabia for inspection prior to arriving in the Yemeni capital of Sana’a. “We reiterated several times that humanitarian efforts need to be coordination with the coalition first,” said the general. “The runway has been bombarded and it will now take time to fix, this is Iran’s responsibility as it defied several warning calls we made.” April 29, 2015

Syria Headline: Islamist rebels capture more than 100 Syrian troops in Jisr al-Shughour Islamic rebels captured 100 Syrian government troops and militia fighters after seizing the Syrian military’s last urban stronghold in Idlib province over the weekend, according to a human rights observer group. An array of allied militant Islamic factions, including al-Qaida’s Nusra Front, stormed into the town of Jisr al-Shughour from the Turkish border on Thursday, taking most of it by Saturday. The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, a Britain-based group that monitors the Syrian Civil War, reported Tuesday that the prisoners include dozens of Syrian soldiers and allied militiamen with their families who were captured in Jisr al-Shughour and the village of Eshtabraq. Syrian state news reported over the weekend that its forces had redeployed to the outskirts of Jisr al-Shughour to avoid civilian casualties, and that militants were conducting executions in the town. ***SEE ALSO TURKEY BELOW

Syria Headline: FSA aims to cut Damascus-Quneitra highway
The Free Syrian Army has opened a new front in southern Syria with an ambitious operation aimed at cutting the highway running southwest from Damascus to the Quneitra region near the Israeli border. The FSA’s First Army, a member of the Southern Front coalition of rebels, announced Monday that it had launched the “Battle of the Cutting of Joints” to seize the town of Sasa, which lies approximately 15 kilometers northeast of the Golan demarcation line between Syria and Israel. “The battle began on Monday morning with preliminary shelling of the Syrian army’s 68th Brigade [base] and the nearby Maqrousa area,” a source in the First Army told the opposition Siraj Press outlet. The source added that “fierce clashes between the First Army and Assad’s forces had taken place close to the Military Intelligence branch in Sasa, as well as some other areas of the village.” The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, in turn, reported that fighting took place in the Sasa area between pro-regime forces on one hand and Islamist battalions and other rebels on the other. Meanwhile, First Army spokesperson Maher Elali elaborated to the anti-regime Smart News that the rebels had fired mortars and artillery on the Military Intelligence branch and 68th Brigade base in Sasa in addition to National Defense Force militiamen stationed in Maqrousa. “The operation aims to relieve pressure on fighters engaged in the battle to liberate the 137th Regiment [base in Khan al-Shih],” he added.

Syria Headline: Syrian rebels combat ISIS and regime forces in Qalamoun The Syrian regime forces of “Brigade 20″ bombarded the city of Jairud in eastern Qalamoun with heavy artillery and targeted the area around the national hospital, causing the death of 12 people and the injury of dozens others, most of whom are in critical conditions, local activists reported on Tuesday. Local activists told ARA News that the pro-regime helicopters dropped several barrel bombs on the city of Zabadani, as well as targeting the Jairud Kalamoon area with artillery from the security centers on the western and eastern areas of Qalamoun. Speaking to ARA News on the phone, Ahmad Shami, a civil rights activist, said that on Monday the city of Zabadani saw artillery bombardment from the regime-held checkpoints of Hawarat, Ain Ramle and Biqqin plant, coinciding with sporadic shooting that continued for hours. “The regime-held checkpoints of Sindiyan, Jirjaniya and the People’s Committees in the Mamoora neighborhood targeted the city of Zabadani with artillery,” Shami added, pointing out that the Lebanese army also attacked Jroud Qalamoun and Jroud Arsal with artillery fire from army centers based in the Tel Hamra and Ras Baalbek areas. In a related development, the clashes continued between the FSA rebels (backed by the al-Nusra Front) and the pro-regime forces (supported by the Lebanese militia of Hezbollah and the National Defense force) in the Jairud Qalamoun area, FSA sources reported.

Iraq Headline: Iraq Headline: Iraq’s Prime Minister comes under Attack by Political Rivals
Iraq’s Prime Minister (PM) Haidar al-Abadi and Defense Minister Khalid al-Ubaidi came under increasing political pressure from former Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki’s allies and select Shi’a militia leaders this week. Pro-Maliki social media levied criticisms in posts between April 24 and April 27, 2015. ISIS’s successful attack against an Iraqi Army outpost in eastern Anbar provided the proximate cause for the criticism, allowing political opponents to target Abadi and Ubaidi for what they described as poor performance of the government in managing the security portfolio. ISIS’s recent gain in Anbar, while tactically important, is still relatively small given the overall success of the Iraqi Security Forces operation that cleared ISIS from Tikrit. It nevertheless showed that ground ISF units in Anbar are arrayed to address various high priorities such as the defense of Ramadi, preventing them from launching a successful ground rescue operation. Shi’a political rivals are likely targeting Abadi not only to make political gains, but also because of his recent cooperation with the U.S., which angered politicians affiliated with Iranian-backed Iraqi Shi’a militias. Maliki has recently staged himself as a senior figure within the sphere of the militias by attending militia-sponsored events and funerals of senior militia figures. This outreach to the militias may indicate that he is setting conditions whereby he can break off militia-supportive elements of the Shi’a coalition that supports the current PM and challenge current Prime Minister Abadi, who is a member of his own Dawa party. These events may increase political and social tension in Baghdad and Iraq’s Shi’a provinces at a vulnerable time. April 28, 2015

Kurdish Headline: Iraqi Cleric Warns US Congress Against Recognising Kurds, Sunnis as “separate countries”
Influential Iraqi Shia cleric, Muqtada al-Sadr, has warned United States Congress against passing a bill recognizing the Sunnis and Kurds in Iraq as separate countries. Al-Sadr said on Wednesday that if the bill is passed, Iraq will no longer be a safe place for the US, and its interests will become the target of attacks by the Iraqis who will never accept the “division of their country.” “We are obliged to lift the freeze on our military wing … and begin hitting US interests in Iraq and outside it,” said Sadr, who once led the powerful Mahdi Army and still enjoys huge influence among the Shia population. The draft of the US annual defense bill, which was released on April 27 by the House Armed Services Committee, urges the US government to recognize separate Kurdish and Sunni states and provide them with at least 25 percent of the $715 million aid money planned to be given to the Iraqi government to help it fight the Islamic State militants. The draft bill also says the figure could even amount to 60 percent of the money, about $429 million. The bill mandates that “the Kurdish Peshmerga, the Sunni tribal security forces with a national security mission, and the Iraqi Sunni National Guard be deemed a country,” adding that doing so “would allow these security forces to directly receive assistance from the United States.” April 29, 2015

Headline: RUSSIAN-BACKED OFFENSIVE IN UKRAINE LOOMS AS CEASEFIRE BREAKS
Russian-backed separatist forces are on the brink of a renewed offensive in eastern Ukraine. The redeployment of banned heavy weapons to the front line, reports of an increasing regular Russian military presence, and the intensification of separatist attacks on Ukrainian military positions suggest that pro-Russian forces are preparing to rupture the framework of the February 12 ceasefire agreement. The arrival of U.S. military trainers in Ukraine increases Washington’s stake in the deteriorating security situation and may be exploited by the Kremlin to justify a pro-Russian offensive around Victory Day on May 9, 2015.

Headline: Libya’s Tripoli parties reject ‘shocking’ UN peace draft
A draft proposal put forth by UN envoy Bernardino Leon to end Libya’s political crisis has invited criticism from political parties in the capital Tripoli. The Tripoli-based parliament said that it rejects the proposal by the UN envoy. The General National Congress (GNC) “completely rejects the draft proposal as it does not provide an objective, comprehensive, balanced solution,” parliament spokesman Omar Humaidan said at a press conference on Tuesday. Unveiled by Leon on Monday, the draft calls for a two-year transitional period and for all parties to respect the results of a parliamentary election. Its fourth governing principle states that the House of Representatives (HoR), the internationally-recognised parliament that is locked in a struggle for legitimacy with the GNC, is “the only legislative authority in the country”. The HoR was ruled unconstitutional by Libya’s High Court last November, after a tense session in the GNC-controlled capital Tripoli. The draft does not mention the GNC. The proposal also calls for extending the mandate of the country’s constitution-drafting assembly. In his cover letter, Leon acknowledged that the draft would not “meet all the expectations of all the parties”. April 29, 2015

On Tuesday, the Syrian authorities accused Turkey of supplying weapons and ammunition to “terrorist groups” (in reference to opposition fighters) that enabled them to capture the Syrian city of Idlib and the strategic town of Jisr al-Shughour. The Syrian Foreign Ministry issued a statement, saying: “The terrorist groups’ attacks on the cities of Idlib and Jisr al-Shughour… were carried out with logistical and fire support from the Turkish army.” “This is direct Turkish aggression against Syria,” ministry officials were quoted by the state TV as saying.The Syrian regime has repeatedly accused Turkey of logistically and militarily supporting Islamists as well as facilitating their movement across its borders. On Friday, factions of the Syrian armed opposition were able to enter the city of Jisr ash-Shughur in the western countryside of Idlib province, in northwestern Syria, as well as take control of several pro-regime checkpoints in Sahl al-Ghab countryside, northwest of Hama.

The source, who is involved in the enforcement efforts, confirmed to Fox News there was a direct order from the mayor to her police chief Monday night, effectively tying the hands of officers as they were pelted with rocks and bottles. Asked directly if the mayor was the one who gave that order, the source said: “You are &^%$%^ right it was.” (*ETRM has altered this quote due to offensive language; it is altered only where you see signs instead of letters).

Nigeria’s army has rescued 200 girls and 93 women during a military operation to wrest back the Sambisa Forest from the Boko Haram Islamist terrorist group, Reuters reported on Tuesday. “Troops this afternoon rescued 200 girls and 93 women from Sambisa Forest. We cannot confirm if the Chibok girls are in this group,” the army said on Tuesday, adding Nigerian troops had also destroyed three camps run by the terrorists there. Boko Haram kidnapped more than 200 schoolgirls near the northern village of Chibok in April 2014, causing an international outcry. Diplomats and intelligence officials say they believed at least some of the girls were being held in the forest about 100 kilometers (60 miles) from Chibok, although U.S. reconnaissance drones failed to find them. Nigerian forces backed by warplanes invaded the vast former colonial game reserve late last week as part of a push to win back territory from the group, according to Reuters. April 29, 2015

Two soldiers and a civilian were killed on Wednesday when gunmen attacked the village of Goundam in northern Mali, an army spokesman and local residents said, amid rising tensions after two days of clashes between pro- and anti-government militia. The separatist rebel umbrella organization, the Coordination of Azawad Movements (CMA), said in a statement on Tuesday it would defend itself after the Gatia militia favorable to Bamako seized the northern town of Menaka. “At around 5:30 am this morning, armed men attacked the village of Goundam,” Souleymane Maiga, head of the army’s information office, said. “The provisional toll is three dead including the head of the national guard unit, his deputy, and acivilian.” One local resident said the gunmen entered the town firing their weapons and went to the headquarters of the national guard detachment, where they shot its head, his deputy and his nephew. Residents said the attackers appeared to be separatist rebels but it was not immediately possible to confirm this. The violence came after separatist fighters shot at U.N.peacekeepers outside the town of Timbuktu in northern Mali onTuesday. The CMA claimed the attack. April 29, 2015

Headline: Whooping-cough cases rise sharply in Washington state
Whooping cough is continuing to rise in Washington state, particularly among babies too young for vaccination and teens with waning protection, health officials reported Tuesday. As of April 25, there were 387 cases of pertussis, also known as whooping cough, in Washington, compared with 85 reported cases at the same time last year. Twenty-five of those cases were in babies younger than 1. Of those, six babies were hospitalized, including five aged 3 months or younger. Pertussis is known for causing uncontrollable coughing that can make it hard to breathe and cause a characteristic “whooping” sound in someone struggling to get air. It can be dangerous, even deadly, for babies and young children. This is the first sharp rise in cases since a 2012 epidemic that saw nearly 5,000 cases in Washington. April 28, 2015

Mike Huckabee, former U.S. Senator Rick Santorum, National Religious Broadcasters president Jerry Johnson, Pastor John Hagee, and Franklin Graham, president and CEO of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association and Samaritan’s Purse. The pledge was co-drafted by Deacon Keith Fournier, a Catholic deacon, and Mat Staver, the founder of Liberty Counsel. Also involved in the document were Rick Scarborough, the president of Vision America Action and James Dobson, the founder of Family Talk Radio. April 29, 2015

Headline: Lava Lake On Kilauea Volcano Is Seriously Close To Overflowing A lava lake on Hawaii’s Big Island is mere feet from overflowing. On Tuesday morning, the lava’s surface briefly reached the lake’s rim, the highest it’s been since the current summit eruption began in 2008. It has since returned to about 10 feet below the rim. “Magma is rising up into the lava lake from a magma chamber a mile or so beneath the summit of Kilauea volcano,” research geologist Matthew Patrick told The Huffington Post. According to Patrick, an overflow is a definite possibility because Kilauea has been consistently inflating for the past week, meaning that magma keeps flowing into the lake from an underground chamber below. In the event of an overflow, the lava would stay within Halemaumau Crater, the larger crater in the floor of which the lava lake sits, so it would pose no safety threat. But visitors to Volcanoes National Park would get quite a display. April 28, 2015

Headline: Violence as Anger Erupts among Nepal Quake Survivors Desperate Nepalis clashed with riot police and seized supplies of bottled water in the capital Wednesday as anger boiled over among survivors of an earthquake that killed more than 5,000 people. Supplies are running thin and aftershocks have strained nerves in ruined Kathmandu, home to some 2.5 million before it was shattered by Saturday’s 7.8 magnitude quake. Desperate to leave, thousands of people began gathering from before dawn outside the main bus station after the government promised to lay on special services to far-flung rural areas. But when the buses failed to materialise, anger began surging and scuffles broke out between the crowds and riot police who were sent in to try to contain the situation near parliament. Some protesters forced a truck carrying drinking water off the road and climbed on top of it, throwing the bottles to the crowd. “We’ve been left starving in the cold and the best this government can give us is this queue. Why are they so slow?” demanded Rajana as she lined up along with thousands of others for a bus to her home village.
