Hamas Spokesman: We Will Continue to Develop Our Arsenal 1minute

Hamas TV Report on Ongoing Rocket Production in Gaza 2 minutes

 

Psalm 83

Cooltextprophecysign“Do not keep silent, O God! Do not hold Your peace, And do not be still, O God! For behold, Your enemies make a tumult; And those who hate You have lifted up their head. They have taken crafty counsel against Your people, And consulted together against Your sheltered ones. They have said, “Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation, That the name of Israel may be remembered no more.”

Israel’s Operation Protective Edge entered its 38th day on Thursday

ceasefire

Headline:   PLO reports new Gaza truce, Hamas denies and shoots rockets. Israel is silent, retaliates with air strikes

Total confusion reigned Thursday morning, Aug. 14, stirred up by a night of contradictory words and actions around the mirage of yet another truce in the Gaza war. The only immutable fact was Hamas rocket fire starting two hours before the last 72-hour ceasefire was scheduled to end Wednesday midnight and continuing up until 2 a.m. Thursday – namely before and after PLO-Ramallah envoys in Cairo and Egyptian officials reported a new five-day ceasefire had been agreed. Hamas-Gaza denied any such deal until all its conditions met. No Israeli official was available to confirm or deny the PLO-Egyptian claims. However, the Israeli air force retaliated for the Palestinian rocket fire with air strikes over the Gaza Strip. Early Thursday, the unofficial word from Jerusalem was that the indirect talks in Cairo, which according to Hamas had broken down, will “apparently” be resumed Sunday. Egypt, Hamas, the PLO and Israel appear to be totally at loggerheads. This impasse has produced a volatile and unpredictable situation that is closer to a lingering war of attrition between Hamas and Israel than a negotiated accommodation.  Towards dawn Thursday, Ashkelon, Kiryat Gath, Netivot, and the Lachish, Eshkol and Shear Hanegev Districts again heard the explosions of Hamas rockets and Israeli air strikes over Khan Younes and central Gaza. Members of the Israeli cabinet say that Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Moshe Ya’alon don’t keep them in the picture. Its hazy outline indicates that the two war leaders still hope to maneuver Hamas into accepting a prolonged ceasefire. Because that is the last thing that the Palestinian Islamists seek, they will keep on shooting.

Headline:  Hamas may not return to the talks at all

The new five-day truce does not mean that a deal is close. Quite possibly, it indicates the opposite. The announcement of another 5-day ceasefire through to Monday night does not necessarily indicate that a long-term ceasefire is close. The sides’ agreement in principle to another 120 hours of calm stems principally from their failure to find a solution, not a dramatic narrowing of the gaps between them. The three relevant parties in the Cairo talks — Israel, Hamas and Cairo itself — are deeply at odds not only with each other and also internally as regards their own interests, reducing the prospects of an overall agreement.

Headline: 13:40- Palestinians blast ‘terrible’ Israeli truce proposal

The security cabinet will convene at 5:30 p.m. at the Defense Ministry headquarters in Tel Aviv to discuss the situation in the Gaza Strip and the ongoing negotiations for a permanent ceasefire, Haaretz diplomatic correspondent Barak Ravid reports. Channel 2′s diplomatic correspondent, Udi Segal, says the ministers will present their conditions for a ceasefire to the cabinet. He says Justice Minister Tzipi Livni and Finance Minister Yair Lapid are likely to push for strengthening Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas, while Economy Minister Naftali Bennett and Foreign Minister Avigdor Liberman are likely to demand strict control over funds transferred to the Gaza Strip. Earlier today, cabinet ministers complained that they had heard of the renewal of the temporary truce between Israel and various Palestinian factions from Hamas press statements rather than from Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Headline:   Thousands rally in Tel Aviv in support of southern residents

Headline: Hundreds of Sderot Residents File UNHRC Complaints against Hamas

Thousands of people gathered Thursday evening at Tel Aviv’s Rabin Square for a rally in solidarity with the citizens of southern Israel, who have lived for more than a month under the increased threat of attacks emanating from the Gaza Strip. The rally was attended by residents of southern communities, municipal leaders and others wishing to express their support for Israelis living on the Gaza periphery. Tel Aviv Mayor Ron Huldai said his city stood with communities in the South as part of a collective Israeli society. “Tel Aviv and the South are partners in the path of Zionism and loving the land and a joint destiny in this land,” he told the crowds gathered in front of the Municipality building. Eshkol Regional Council Mayor Haim Yellin called for a humanistic view at the hostilities in the southern regions. “Residents of Gaza border towns are not just people who rockets are shot at!” he stressed. Sderot Mayor Alon Davidi said the residents of the rocket-beaten region under his authority would “not tolerate the continued murder attempts from Gaza.”

Headline: Israeli official confirms US nixed arms shipment; pols argue over who’s to blame

The US government has halted a shipment of Hellfire aerial anti-armor missiles to Israel, the Wall Street Journal reported, citing government sources. The sources noted that Israel had requested the transfer of ammunitions directly from the Pentagon, with receiving the approval of the White House or State Department officials. According to the sources, White House officials were concerned about Israel’s use of artillery, instead of precision-guided munitions in the more densely populated areas. An Israeli official told the newspaper that the rift between Israel and the US has now deepened: “We’ve been there before with a lot of tension with us and Washington. What we have now, on top of that, is mistrust and a collision of different perspectives on the Middle East.”

Headline:   PA accuses the US of establishing the radical Islamic ISIS terror movement in order to destabilize and take control of the Middle East

The Palestinian Authority official daily has published five articles in the last six weeks accusing the United States of establishing the radical Islamic movement Islamic State (ISIS or IS) that has conquered vast territory in Syria and Iraq in recent months. ISIS has declared itself a Caliphate, thereby claiming religious authority over all Muslims; its goal is to bring much of the Middle East, including Jordan, Israel, Palestine, Lebanon, Kuwait, and Cyprus under its control. To this end, ISIS has used extreme terror tactics, including decapitations, crucifixions and mass murders that were filmed and posted on YouTube.  The articles claim that the US has a long term goal of controlling the Arab-Muslim states by dividing them through conflict and wars. ISIS’s war and other conflicts are all said to be the work of the US

Headline:   US customers complain post offices refusing mail delivery to Israel

A number of local post offices in the United States have recently told customers that they are not accepting mail for delivery to Israel due to the conflict with Gaza, the Anti Defamation League reported on Thursday. The ADL has received complaints in recent days that local post offices in Massachusetts, Michigan and New Jersey were refusing to send mail to the Jewish state. “The postal employees have told these individuals that current USPS policy says that mail to Israel cannot be accepted because of the current crisis,” ADL National Director Abraham H. Foxman said. “Only once employees sought clarification from supervisors in Washington did these post offices accept packages and letters to Israel,” he added. The ADL claimed that mail delivery was halted for 36 hours following the US Federal Aviation Authority’s decision earlier this month to prohibit US airlines from flying to and from Ben-Gurion airport in light of the rocket threat from Gaza. However, with the lifting of the flight ban, mail delivery from the US to Israel was resumed. The ADL penned a letter to US Postmaster General Patrick R. Donahoe, stating that postal authorities in the local branches had misunderstood the temporary ban on delivery to Israel as permanent. The League urged the Postal Service to ensure that all of its employees are aware that mail delivery to Israel has not been suspended.

Headline: US activists to block Israeli cargo in mass shutdown of West Coast ports

Sympathizers with the Hamas cause in Gaza have brought their tactics to America, publicizing an effort to blockade an Israeli ship from unloading its cargo in Long Beach, CA on Wednesday morning. The poster publicizing the intended event read, “Block the Boat End Israeli Apartheid.” The organizers wrote, “Every week, the Israeli owned Zim shipping line docks and unloads its cargo at the Port of Long Beach. Let’s boycott Israeli Apartheid and stop the ship from ever unloading in our town. From Seattle to Oakland to Los Angeles: turn the Israeli ship around!” Long Beach, apparently, is now Hamas’s town.

Headline: His Majesty directs gov’t to activate Defence Ministry, expand IEC’s role

Headline: Royal Decree summons Parliament to meet in extraordinary session

His Majesty King Abdullah on Wednesday directed the government to activate the Ministry of Defence and expand the jurisdiction of the Independent Elections Commission (IEC) to encompass all electoral processes. In a letter to Prime Minister Abdullah Ensour, the King issued directives to activate the Defence Ministry to assume the political, economic, legal and logistic functions related to national defence. The measure will be part of “a crucial new phase of reforms — based on the principles of transparency, enhancing popular participation and sharing national responsibilities — to add to the major qualitative reforms achieved over the past three years”. The ministry will take over the non-military logistic, administrative, investment and development duties, and those not associated with specialised professional military domain that the General Command of the Jordan Armed Forces (JAF) currently undertakes. Its envisioned role will also include developing the state’s general defence capabilities and managing military resources more efficiently. The measure is aimed at “ensuring that the Arab Army and the General Intelligence Department remain professional and apolitical”, Ensour said in the letter.

His Majesty King Abdullah is scheduled to visit Saudi Arabia on Thursday, where he will meet Saudi King Abdullah Bin Abdulaziz to discuss bilateral ties and the latest regional developments, a Royal Court statement said Wednesday. On Wednesday, the King met with Lebanese Foreign Minister Gebran Bassil at the Husseiniya Palace and reiterated Jordan’s stance in support of all efforts to achieve peace and security in the Middle East, especially in light of the increasing violence, intolerance, extremism and terrorism. King Abdullah underscored the solid relations between the two countries, and expressed keenness to boost them and help Lebanon face challenges in a way that guarantees its unity, security and stability. Discussions at the meeting also focused on the importance of reaching a comprehensive political solution to the Syrian crisis that ends the suffering of the Syrian people.

Headline:U.S. to deliver more weapons to Lebanon following raids by Islamists

The United States will soon deliver additional weaponry to help bolster the Lebanese military as it faces a growing threat from Islamic militants amid the fallout from the civil war in neighboring Syria, the U.S. ambassador said Thursday. Ambassador David Hale said the deliveries come in response to a request from the Lebanese armed forces for emergency assistance after Islamic militants overran a Lebanese town near the Syrian border, killing and kidnapping soldiers. Hale did not say when the munitions would arrive, nor did he provide a price tag for them, but he did say the new assistance it is part of Washington’s long-standing partnership with the Lebanese military. The U.S has provided more than $1 billion in military assistance since 2006, including over $120 million in training and equipment since October, he said.

Headline: 10:06- Hamas request for aid ‘not serious’ — Hezbollah

Hamas was “not serious in its call on Hezbollah for assistance in the Palestinian Gaza Strip,” Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah says in an interview with the Lebanese newspaper Al-Akhbar, excerpts from which were released yesterday. While the actual meaning of Nasrallah’s words can’t be gleaned from the few excerpts that have been released (the full interview will be published today and tomorrow), they may indicate that the Shiite Hezbollah, which has been fighting Sunni Islamists alongside forces loyal to Syrian President Bashar Assad, harbors some criticism toward Hamas, which has called on Hezbollah to open a new northern front against Israel amid the fighting to the south in the Gaza Strip. Also in the interview, Nasrallah vows that his organization’s involvement in Syria will not affect its presumably violent plans for Israel. “What we have prepared for Israel was not affected by our actions in Syria,” he says. Hizbullah chief Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah stated that there are “no red lines” in the “security war” with Israel, reported al-Akhbar newspaper.

Headline: Saudi Arabia donates $100 mn for a UN counter-terrorism centre

Saudi Arabia has refuted reports that forces from Pakistan and Egypt have been deployed along the kingdom’s northern border to defend it from IS militants. Saudi National Guard Minister Prince Miteb Bin Abdullah Bin Abdulaziz said the kingdom’s security forces were more than capable of dealing with any cross-border terrorist threats, denying reports that troops from friendly Muslim countries had been deployed on its borders. “It would be better for them [terrorist organisations] not to approach Saudi Arabia’s borders and if they opt to do so they will really suffer,” the minister said according to a report carried by Saudi Press Agency. Addressing a press conference in the northern city of Arar, Prince Miteb denied reports that Egyptian and Pakistani forces had been deployed to defend Saudi Arabia’s border with Iraq. “We have very good relations with Egypt and Pakistan but the reports about the presence of their forces in the kingdom are not true . . . We in Saudi Arabia have the capabilities to defend our lands,” he said. “The kingdom’s military strength has reached 27 million, which is the population of the country including soldiers and ordinary citizens. Every citizen in the kingdom is a soldier and Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Abdullah has stated he will be in [the] forefront to defend the nation,” Prince Miteb added.

Headline: Ansar Beit al-Maqdis pledges allegiance to ISIS emir Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi

One child was killed and two others were wounded when a rocket landed on their home in the Egyptian town of el-Mattallah south of Rafah, near the border with Gaza, security and medical sources told Reuters on Wednesday. Sara Salama, 13, died while her brother Khaled, 8, and sister Rahaf, 2, sustained serious injuries and were taken to hospital.The rocket impact is the third to hit the area in recent weeks, security sources said, adding that Egyptian authorities were investigating the incident. It is unclear if attack came from Gaza or was executed by militant forces in the Egyptian peninsula. In the past, Ansar Beit al-Maqdis has been responsible for multiple terrorist attacks on Egyptian soil, mainly in the restive Sinai peninsula. In addition to this pledge of allegiance, the group has also claimed responsibility for the kidnap and murder of three Israeli teenagers in the West Bank.

Headline:  Syrian troops seize contested Damascus suburb Mleiha

Syrian government troops captured a fiercely contested suburb of the capital Thursday after five months of heavy fighting, flushing rebels from their last hideouts and quickly moving to crush pockets of resistance in the surrounding countryside, activists and state media said. The fall of Mleiha, located some 10 kilometers (6 miles) southeast of downtown Damascus, marks the latest setback for rebels around the capital. Over the past year, the opposition has watched as one stronghold after another has either slipped into government hands or been forced to strike lopsided truces. Government troops backed by fighters from the Lebanese Hezbollah, a Shiite militant group, finally seized the town Thursday, the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, which relies on activists inside Syria, said. “Mleiha is under government control, but there is still fighting in the areas surrounding the town,” said Observatory director Rami Abdurrahman.

Islamic State fighters have captured two key towns and several villages near Syria’s northern border with Turkey after pushing out rival fighters in fierce clashes, opposition groups and activists said. Activists said fighters from the group captured the towns of Akhtarin and Turkmanbareh after fierce clashes with rebels who are fighting to topple Syrian President Bashar al-Assad. The IS fighters  also took a string of nearby villages over which they had been fighting, including Masoudiyeh, Dabiq and Ghouz.

Headline: Lebanon must rein in Hezbollah, says Syrian opposition chief

The shocking rise of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) and its rampage across Iraq has taken attention away both from the conflict in neighboring Syria and the other organizations seeking the downfall of Bashar Al-Assad’s government. At the height of the world’s interest in the Syrian war, the Syrian National Coalition was feted by Western governments as the legitimate representative of the Syrian people, an umbrella organization that sought to include all the rebel groups battling Assad under its aegis and wield them into an alternative government and military for the war-torn country. As ever, the course of events proved to be far from predictable, frustrating the Coalition’s plans for a post-Assad Syria and worsening its factional infighting. Today, the Coalition struggles to remain relevant in the face of the advance of ISIS and the resilience of Assad and his forces, which have managed—with help from regional allies—to turn the tide against the rebels in much of Syria. Asharq Al-Awsat spoke to the man elected recently to lead the Coalition, Hadi Al-Bahra, about its struggles to aid Syrians displaced by the conflict, the recent violence on the Lebanese border, and the relationship between the Coalition and the various armed groups on the ground in Syria.

Headline: U.S. seeking European arms, ammunition for Kurds: officials

Headline: Iraqi Kurds accuse local Arabs of supporting IS

The United States is asking European countries to supply arms and ammunition to Kurdish forces fighting jihadists of the Islamic State in Iraq, U.S. and European officials said, signaling a widening of the international role in the conflict. The United States has requested the arms in telephone calls with several European countries, the U.S. officials said, seeking help for Peshmerga fighters of Iraq’s semi-autonomous Kurdish region who are struggling against better-armed militants of the self-styled Islamic State. Several European countries announced on Wednesday plans to send arms or ammunition: France will supply arms “in the coming hours” in response to a request from Iraq’s Kurdish leadership, President Francois Hollande’s office said. It did not say what kinds of weapons France would provide. One U.S. official briefed on the Obama administration’s plans said the United States is coordinating efforts by various allies including Britain, France and Germany to acquire and deliver arms, initially ammunition for non-U.S. weapons such as the AK-47 assault rifles that are widely used by the Kurds.

U.S. President Barack Obama said on Thursday that the Islamist militant siege of Iraq’s Mount Sinjar had been broken and most of the U.S. military personnel sent to assess the situation would be pulled out of Iraq in the coming days. Obama, in a briefing to reporters, said he did not expect the United States to have to stage an evacuation of the mountain, where thousands of members of the Yazidi religious minority had been trapped by militants, or to continue humanitarian airdrops. “We broke the ISIL (Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant) siege of Mount Sinjar,” Obama said. “We helped innocent people reach safety and we helped save many innocent lives. Because of these efforts we do not expect there to be an additional operation to evacuate people off the mountain and it’s unlikely that we are going to need to continue humanitarian airdrops on the mountain.

Headline: Iraqi army, militants clash west of Baghdad

Islamic State gunmen are continuing their sweep across Iraq and are poised at the gates of a town just north of Baghdad – despite American air strikes intended to thwart the extremist group’s advances. Commanders from the fundamentalist militia are massing near Qara Tappa just 70 miles north of the capital, according to Iraqi security sources and a local official. The move threatens to broaden the front against Kurdish Peshmerga troops, who in recent days have been routed from several battlefields across northern and western Iraq. The development came as clashes erupted west of Baghdad and the United Nations announced its highest level of humanitarian emergency for the crisis-hit country. Fighting broke out in Fallujah, the city held by Islamic State which lies just 40 miles west of the capital. At least 15 people were killed, including four children, when extremist Sunni gunmen battled Iraqi troops on the city’s outskirts.

Ahmed Khalaf al-Dulaimi told Reuters his request, made in meetings with U.S. diplomats and a senior military officer, included air support against the militants who have a tight grip on large parts of Anbar and the north.

Headline: Out of control: ISIS and the oil market

comment****SEE MAPS BELOW FOR BOTH IRAQ AND SYRIA

 

The self-declared Caliphate led by Abu Bakr Al Baghdadi now covers a land area greater than Britain and a population of over six million in Syria and Iraq, the final rail in the coffin of the Sykes Picot Pact that created the post-Ottoman Arab state system. The Isis has fought and won successive battles with the Iraqi Army the Kurdish pesh merga and even the Al Qaeda affiliate Jahbat Al Nusra in Syria. It controls Syria’s oil province of Deir Zorr, the Al Shaer gas fields and the cities of Mosul and Tikrit, the vast strategic western Anbar province. The Caliphate controls most of Syria’s crude oil and gas production and has the potential to severely disrupt the strategic oil assets, refineries and pipeline networks of both the Baghdad government and the Kurdish Regional Government. Not since Biafra sought to secede from Nigeria has a major Opec oil producer faced such a serious threat of state partition as Iraq under Nuri Al Maliki in the late summer of 2014. The Isis’ Caliphate threatens not only the governments of Iraq and Syria but also threatens Jordan, Lebanon, Turkey, Saudi Arabia and the Kurds. Its rapid conquests, its oil wealth, its genocidal sectarian agenda has made it the sworn enemy of both the Ayatollah Khomeini’s Iran and the Obama White House.

Headline: Kurds Clash With ISIS Supporters in SHEFFIELD, UK

Brochures urging Muslims to leave Britain and join the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) group were and handed out to Oxford Street shoppers in central London, The Daily Mail reported Wednesday. The newspaper said men, who stood in front of posters declaring “the dawn of a new era has begun,” were handing out pro-ISIS brochures. “The khilafah (Caliphate) has been established,” one leaflet read, in reference to territories gained in Iraq and Syria after ISIS waged its lightening offensive in recent weeks. Another leaflet said: “We have been living in a constant state of ignorance, our lands separated, resources stolen, ummah disunited, honor humiliated and the laws of shirk established over us.” The leaflet said Muslims around the world have “many great responsibilities towards the success and spread of the khilafah across the world.” It also sets out seven rules for supporters, including to “obey” the Caliph, Sharia law, “migrate” from the UK to the caliphate and “expose lies” about the extremist group. Meanwhile, Members of Britain’s Kurdish Community have clashed with ISIS supporters in the northern English city of Sheffield, according to the Times. The Kurds were said to be outraged when they saw Gaza protesters waving the black Islamic flag that is often linked with ISIS.

Ukraine’s government forces have heavily bombarded the restive eastern city of Donetsk despite pro-Russians’ announcement of readiness for a ceasefire. Injuries have been reported following the Thursday shelling in Donetsk, which is known to be the stronghold of pro-Russia forces in Ukraine. The Kiev government forces also shelled the city on Wednesday night with local residents saying their homes have been heavily damaged. The besieged fighters in Donetsk have voiced their readiness for a ceasefire to prevent a humanitarian disaster in the area. However, the Ukrainian government has rejected their call. Meanwhile, a Russian aid convoy destined for eastern Ukraine was reported back on track despite Kiev’s warning that it will not let the convoy enter its territory.

South Sudanese rebels led by the former vice-president, Riek Machar have accused president Salva Kiir’s government of violating the cessation of hostilities agreement and planting landmines in the Greater Upper Nile region. In press release issued on Wednesday seen by Sudan Tribune, rebels military spokesperson Brig Lul Ruai Koang claimed that the South Sudanese army continued to violate the ceasefire deal in areas of Unity, Upper Nile and Jonglei states. “The Government of South Sudan have continued to violate the Cessation of Hostilities agreement on daily basis in Unity State in particular, and this has been manifested by attacks and occupation of relief centres in Nhialdiu in Rupkoni County and Guit County even during the distribution of relief items to the displaced,” Koang said. He said government forces had been carrying out indiscriminate shelling of villages surrounding Bentiu town which resulted in the killing of civilians. “The latest violation was committed on 12 August when the government forces attacked our positions at Kal-Jak, Maan-Kuach and Thoan military outposts in Rupkoni and Guit counties respectively,” he said. Similar violations targeting civilians, he said, were being committed in the presence of international forces and monitors in Nasir and Ayod counties in Upper Nile and Jonglei states respectively.

Headline:  Libyan Assembly Asks for UN Help as Militias Clash

Libya’s newly elected parliament asked the United Nations for an “international intervention” Wednesday as militia violence raged across the country. Libya is undergoing its worst spasm of violence since the 2011 ouster and killing of dictator Moammar Gadhafi. Thousands have fled the country, including diplomats and foreign nationals. Scores of embassies have closed down and international organizations have shut their offices. Lawmakers convened in Libya’s eastern-most city of Tobruk, far from weekslong militia battle over the international airport in the capital, Tripoli, and clashes in the country’s second-largest city, Benghazi. They adopted a resolution asking the Security Council for help. It passed with 111 votes in favor from among 124 lawmakers present. Meanwhile, random shelling in Tripoli killed three people overnight. It was not immediately clear how the U.N. would respond to the Libyan parliament plea but calls for outside help have come from many in Libya. The U.N. mission in Libya— which evacuated because of the violence — has called on warring parties to stop the violence and hold peace talks. Violence mounted when Islamist-led militias mainly from the coastal city of Misrata launched an attack on the Tripoli airport, under the control of rival militias from the mountain town of Zintan. Analysts believe that the operation came as a backlash to Islamists’ devastating loss in last parliamentarian elections and to counter a campaign in Benghazi led by a reneged army general and army units against Islamic militias.

AlgeriaAlgeria

Headline:   Morocco-Algeria: No means No

It has been many long years since Morocco began asking Algeria to open its borders. These requests have fallen on deaf ears. The Algerian response has been firm and consistent. NO. The Algerians could not be clearer: they do not want to have anything to do with Morocco.  As a matter of fact, Algeria set three impossible conditions to even start negotiating with Morocco. These conditions are that Morocco must:

1. Put a stop to what they call a “smear campaign” in the Moroccan media against Algeria

2. Show true intentions to come up with a formula to fight the alleged flow of drugs into Algeria

3. Recognize Algeria’s non-negotiable and unwavering position on the Western Sahara.

Of course the goal of these conditions is to humiliate Morocco. And what do Moroccan diplomats do in response to Algeria’s unshakable position about opening the borders? They keep asking anytime an opportunity presents itself, as if Algeria will drops these conditions out of the blue and have a change of heart and dismantle the borders. Morocco has been asking Algeria to stop supporting Polisario and let the UN handle the situation in Western Sahara. Algeria made it clear that it is not interested and will never give up on its dream to create a microstate in southern Morocco.

Morocco, yet again, has been under vicious and unjustified attacks by its eastern neighbor. The Algerian accused Morocco of allowing illegal drug trafficking to their country. Such a claim came with no concrete evidence and only reflected how shallow Algeria is in its dealing with Morocco. The Moroccan government issued a statement denouncing those claims and criticism during a meeting held by Mr. Mohammed Hassad, Minister of Interior, and Mr. Mustapha Khalfi; government’s spokesperson and Mr. Charki Driss, Minister delegated to the Ministry of Interior. The Moroccan officials highlighted that Morocco has always complied with the international convention in fighting against drug trafficking and mentioned that the Kingdom has always been cooperating with the United Nation (UN) to reduce the areas wherein cannabis is cultivated. According to the Government, Morocco succeeded in dramatically reducing the space of cannabis fields to less than 30 thousand hectars, which is in other words, reducing the whole drug fields to less than 65%.

They said ISIL was recruiting and training its fighters in remote areas of Turkey with the knowledge of the intelligence community. On July 30, an opposition parliamentarian demanded that the government of Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan confirm details of ISIL training in Turkey. Sezin Tanrikulu, a member of the main opposition Republican People’s Party, said ISIL was operating several training camps, including one near Istanbul. “Is the claim [correct] that the group alleged to have been the Turkish branch of the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant has been allocated a camp ground or other places in Istanbul?” Tanrikulu asked. Tanrikulu directed his questions to Interior Minister Efkan Ala and cited a video that showed alleged ISIL members training in Turkey.

A court in Pakistan has allowed the supporters of opposition leader Imran Khan to hold a peaceful march in the capital, Islamabad. Thousands of supporters of Imran Khan, the leader of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party, gathered in the city of Lahore on Thursday before beginning the 370-km (230-mile) journey to rally in Islamabad. Supporters of Tahir-ul-Qadri, chairman of the Pakistan Awami Tehreek (PAT) political party, also left Lahore along with their leader and are expected to join Khan’s rally on the road or in Islamabad. The authorities had insisted that Qadri’s PAT march would not be permitted before relenting in the afternoon. However, a top police official in Lahore said that the government has allowed PAT to march towards Islamabad “on condition that they remain peaceful, no armed person joins the march and no participant of the march breaks any law.” It is not clear whether either march will be allowed in the heavily-guarded capital, where security has been tightened in recent days. Over 20,000 police and security forces have been deployed and almost all roads into the city have been blocked by the authorities.

Headline: Rights group says Chinese police open fire on Tibetan protesters

Chinese police have opened fire on Tibetan demonstrators in southwestern China, wounding 10 people, after the Tibetans protested against the detention of a respected village leader, a Tibetan rights group said. The crackdown in the Ganzi prefecture of Sichuan province, a flashpoint for Tibetan protests against Chinese rule, underscores simmering tensions between Tibetans and the Chinese authorities. The UK-based International Campaign for Tibet (ICT) group, citing several Tibetan sources in exile, said late on Wednesday the area “is now under tight control, with local Tibetans including the elderly and children subject to interrogation”. Photographs that circulated on social media showed Tibetans with “serious wounds on the head and torso” after the incident, the ICT said. Human rights activists say China tramples on religious freedom and culture in Tibet, which it has ruled with an iron fist since People’s Liberation Army troops “peacefully liberated” the region in 1950. China rejects such criticism, saying its rule ended serfdom and brought development to a backward, poverty-stricken region. Tibet remains tightly controlled and foreign journalists are largely banned from visiting, making it very difficult to verify independently such reports of unrest.

An unusually hot season and extended dry spells have brought drought to areas in eastern and western Guatemala and El Salvador, southern Honduras and northern and central Nicaragua, destroying swathes of bean and maize crops, the region’s staple foods, and putting pressure on subsistence farmers and food prices. “Extremely poor households across large areas of Guatemala, Nicaragua, Honduras, and El Salvador will experience a rapid deterioration in their food security in early 2015. “Atypically high levels of humanitarian assistance, possibly the highest since Hurricane Mitch in 1998, will likely be required in order to avoid a food crisis,” said a recent report by the Famine Early Warning Systems Network (FEWS NET), run by the US Agency for International Development (USAID). Thousands of families in the region have become too poor to buy enough food for survival because poor harvests are pushing up prices of staple foods while coffee producers are hiring fewer seasonal coffee pickers and paying lower wages because of a coffee leaf rust or roya epidemic across Central America. In Nicaragua and Honduras, red bean prices rose by up to 129 percent between January and June 2014, according to FEWS NET. Other livelihoods in Central America, including fishing and livestock breeding, have also been hard hit by the recent drought and the El Nino weather phenomenon, FEWS NET said.

Headline: North Korea fires three short-range rockets as pope visits South Korea

North Korea fired three short-range rockets off its east coast on Thursday, South Korea’s Ministry of Defense said, shortly before Pope Francis arrived in Seoul on his first visit to Asia. The rockets were fired from multiple launchers in the North Korean port city of Wonsan and traveled 220 km (135 miles) before landing in waters east of the Korean peninsula, a defense ministry official said. The last rocket was fired 35 minutes before Pope Francis was due to arrive at an air base in Seoul, where the pontiff started a five-day visit to South Korea. The launches came ahead of U.S.-South Korean military exercises scheduled to start on Monday. Seoul and Washington say the exercises are defensive in nature but North Korea regularly protests against the drills, which it sees as a rehearsal for war.

Headline: Virus is found in 14 Kansas City area newborns

Health authorities on both sides of the state line are investigating infections among 14 Kansas City area infants with a virus that can cause meningitis, as well as widespread inflammation, serious enough to require intensive care. The condition of the infants was not immediately available, but many have had to be hospitalized. Cases began in June and were first reported to the Kansas Department of Health and Environment by Shawnee Mission Medical Center. Additional cases have been reported by Children’s Mercy Hospital. “It’s possible we could see more cases. It’s something we’re looking closely at,” KDHE spokeswoman Aimee Rosenow said Monday. Rosenow called the cases “a possible cluster of infections” that may, or may not, be related. “It’s still pretty early on,” she said. “We don’t know if there’s a common factor linking the cases.”

Multiple local government agencies on Long Island declared states of emergency Wednesday after a storm dumped nearly an entire summer’s worth of rain, causing major flooding in some spots that stranded motorists and snarled the morning commute.

A state of emergency was declared in Suffolk County, where county Executive Steve Bellone called the weather Wednesday morning a “storm of historic proportions.” “It was unprecedented and unpredicted — the size, the extent, the scale,” Bellone said at a news conference Wednesday, also remarking that “this could be a 500-year storm we just witnessed.”
