This is my quick look at the near future!  Below you will see where in the word of the Lord that God and our Lord Jesus Christ has warned us that a third Temple would be built in the last days.

I have been warning you that the Jews are going to have full access to the Temple Mount of which at the present time they do not.  In order for the above prophecies to be fulfilled something major has to happen to change the status quo on the Temple Mount.  As Christ promised us in His word that Temple will be rebuilt.  Over the past few years I have been showing you the signs that are leading up to allowing the Jews that full access to the Mount.  Your will see a new news report below entitled: “Jerusalem on the edge in row over contested shrine”. The report is long and I will have the link to that report for you however, I want to show you the most important part of that report which once again shows you the direction the Mount is headed is toward what we see in scripture.

Jerusalem on edge in row over contested shrine

By KARIN LAUB and TIA GOLDENBERG
Associated Press

“On Saturday evening, Housing Minister Uri Ariel of the Jewish Home party, a key coalition partner, ignored appeals to tone down the rhetoric. At a rally for Yehuda Glick, the rabbi wounded by the Palestinian gunman last week, Ariel was quoted as saying that “the status quo on the Temple Mount will change.”

America, WAKE UP!!!

My heart is so grieved over the state of our nation and over the condition of those who profess to follow Jesus. I know Paul warned Timothy that the day would come when men would no longer endure sound doctrine (2 Timothy 4:1- 3), but it just breaks my heart to see. It breaks my heart to see so many people being deceived and led astray from the truth that is in Jesus. The battle is fierce. People truly have no clue how heavy of a war is being waged against their souls, but continue on with life as if there is nothing to be urgent about. AMERICA, WAKE UP!!! (Ephesians 6:12)

Life for the follower of Jesus is NOT about the American dream; that should have been nailed to the cross. The life you now live must be lived for Jesus and His will, for His agenda and purpose (Galatians 2:20). But if you are still living your best life now, you are headed for hell. Life is not about sports and comfort for the believer, but about sacrifice (Luke 9:23). Jesus bought you with His own blood, and if you are His, you must do His will (Luke 6:46). We are in a world that is perishing and we have been commanded to “GO” to every nation and preach the gospel to “every creature”, and to disciple the world (Mark 16:15; Matthew 28:19- 20). We must love our neighbor enough to reach into their lives and show them Jesus. Jesus both loved in actions and by speaking the word.

From the west coast to the east I see people who do not want to hear the gospel; their hearts are hard to God, they do not feel a need for Him. God will give us a need for Him soon. All across the States I see Christians and Church goers who think completely different about what is important; so many find it strange that we would preach the gospel in the open so sinners may hear the words of eternal life. Every sect has their views on the way things should be done, and there is division over who is right, all the while sinners are sinking into hell. Yes, heaven must weep.

It just tears my heart that correction is rejected, discipline is despised, so called Christians do not want to be told what they can and cannot do. “I can live how I want” is the cry of their heart, and so they can, and they will be following the counsel of the devil, who says “Do what thou wilt, shall be the whole of the Law”. People heap up teachers for themselves that tickle their ears, telling them the brand of “Christianity” they want to have, which is no Christianity at all but is idolatry, forming a “Jesus” that they are comfortable with, one who will let them live for the world and think they are still right with God; But the world is passing away and the lust of it, and only those who do the will of the Father will live forever (1 John 2:15– 17).

Oh wake up you sleepers, awake and God will give you life. Listen to His voice, for He is the Resurrection and the Life! Come out of the tomb, take off your grave clothes and embrace the Son of the Living God!

Headline:   Jerusalem is Simmering: 1,000 Additional Forces Sent to Capital

As a result of the recent escalation of terror and violence in Jerusalem, law enforcement agencies are working Sunday to bring more security forces to the capital. An additional 1,000 Israeli Police and Border Patrol forces will be on hand to oversee security in eastern Jerusalem. Security forces are expected to work together with the Tax Authority, the Bailiff’s Office and Jerusalem’s Municipality with the intention of dealing with rioters and carrying out enforcement actions in eastern Jerusalem. Police plan to operate in three main sectors of the city – their additional presence lasting at least a month. Escalated tensions in the capital were felt all of last week, particularly after Wednesday’s terrorist attack, which killed 3-month-old, Chaya Zisel Braun and injured eight others – some critically. The tensions continued last night, when Palestinian youths clashed with security forces in several neighborhoods of eastern Jerusalem. A group of masked men blocked traffic, set fire to trash bins, and threw stones and Molotov cocktails near the Beit Orot neighborhood of At-Tur. One person was lightly injured after being hit and required medical treatment. Israel police and Border Patrol forces arrived at the scene and took riot dispersal measures against the crowd. In addition, another rock-throwing attack erupted on Saturday evening near the Light Rail stop in Shuafat. The rioters damaged the window of one car, but caused no injuries. Police are still searching for suspects in the attack.

Headline:      Israeli intel: Palestinian Authority funding daily attacks in, around Jerusalem

Israel’s intelligence community has determined that the Palestinian Authority was supporting attacks around Jerusalem. Israeli sources said the intelligence community has identified the PA as a leading supporter of Palestinian attacks around Jerusalem. They said the PA was providing money, legal aid and media encouragement for operations that target Jews throughout the city. “The PA has made attacking Jews an honorable pursuit and was helping the terrorists as well as their families,” a source said. The sources said the intelligence community determined that the PA was operating a fund to encourage unrest in Jerusalem. They said the fund, believed to stem from Arab and Muslim states, also focused on riots on Jerusalem’s Temple Mount. Since June 2014, Palestinians have been attacking Israeli civilians and police on a nearly daily basis. Operations ranged from stone-throwing to shootings on highways and Jewish neighborhoods. “Islamic extremist elements are trying to set alight the capital of Israel, and we will use all necessary force, with determination and responsibility, so that they are unsuccessful,” Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Oct. 26.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu authorized planning to advance 1,060 new housing units in neighborhoods in Jerusalem beyond the 1967 lines, officials in the Prime Minister’s Office said Monday. According to the officials, 660 of these units will be constructed in the northern neighborhood of Ramot Shlomo, and another 400 in Har Homa. Netanyahu has also given the green light to move forward infrastructure projects in the West Bank, including – the officials said – roads that will serve the Palestinians as well. The official declined to comment whether there was concern these moves would significantly harm Israel’s position in Europe and the US, which sharply condemned an announcement earlier this month of moving forward development in the Jerusalem neighborhood of Givat Hamatos.

Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas has requested the UN Security Council hold an emergency session to stop Israel’s settlement plans, Palestinian media reported on Monday.

Jordan

Headline: Jordan slams Israel illegal settlement expansion

Jordan’s ambassador to Israel has slammed Tel Aviv over its illegal settlement expansion on Palestinian territories, warning that the move threatens Amman’s peace treaty with the Israeli regime. The Jordanian envoy, Walid Obeidat, said Sunday that the peace treaty between the two sides would be threatened if Tel Aviv continued to build settlements on occupied Palestinian lands. “All such acts are incompatible with international law and international humanitarian law and if allowed to continue will ultimately imperil the treaty,” said Obeidat. In addition, the Jordanian ambassador said Amman opposed an attempt by far-right Israelis to change the status quo of the Al-Aqsa Mosque, saying Jordan is against any alterations to the mosque, which is Islam’s third holiest site.

Headline:   Lebanon Violence Ends As Army Recaptures Tripoli After Weekend Clashes

Headline:    Nusra threatens to kill Lebanon prisoners over Tripoli unrest

Fighting between the Lebanese army and Sunni Islamist militants in the northern Lebanese city of Tripoli died down on Monday, after three days of clashes killed nearly 20 people, including eight civilians, according to media reports. The army reportedly recaptured parts of the predominantly Sunni city it had lost to militants last week. “The operation is over and the army is entering areas where the gunmen were entrenched in order to clear them,” Samir Jisr, a Sunni politician from Tripoli, told Reuters. The latest clashes in Lebanon reportedly erupted on Friday, following which 19 people, including eight civilians were killed. Thousands of civilians also fled the fighting late on Sunday, according to media reports. On Sunday, militants retreated to the Sunni dominated Bab al-Tabbaneh neighborhood in Tripoli. This area was recaptured by the Lebanese military on Monday, according to media reports.  A security source said the army had yet to take one final position being held by the gunmen. The area taken by the army yesterday included a mosque being used as a base by the gunmen in Tripoli’s Bab Al-Tabbaneh area. Fighting has also taken place in other parts of the north, near the towns of Al-Minya and Bahneen, where at least two soldiers were killed in an ambush. The army used helicopter gunships to fire at militant positions for the first time in recent years.

Headline:    Army on high alert after Sidon grenade attack

Security forces in the southern city of Sidon are hunting down terror suspects after assailants tossed a hand grenade early Monday at an Army post, a day after the military foiled two attack attempts, a security source and the military said. “At around 5:15 pm an Army unit raided the residence of Palestinian national Ahmad Adnan Sharaf who was planning to launch an attack on an Army post in the south,” read an Army statement published Monday evening. Sharaf is still at large. During the raid, the Army seized a Kalashnikov rifle, an RPG and 17 grenades, as well as two explosives weighing 1.5 kg each, the statement added. The Army also announced the arrest of Palestinian Malek al-Agha after raiding his residence.

Egypt

Headline:  After Sinai attack, Egyptian president orders army to back police in guarding key facilities

The Egyptian president has ordered that the military will join police forces in guarding vital state facilities against terror attacks. President Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi issued the order in a decree Monday. It follows a surge in attacks by Islamic militants against troops and police. Thirty Egyptian soldiers were killed on Friday by suspected militants in the troubled northern part of the Sinai Peninsula. It was deadliest attack against the army in decades. The decree stipulated that army troops will join police in guarding state facilities for two years during which they will be treated as military installations. Perpetrators of any attacks against the facilities will be tried before military tribunals.

Headline:    Egypt postpones talks on Gaza’s future

Egypt announced on Sunday it was postponing talks in Cairo on cementing the Gaza war ceasefire after closing its border with the Palestinian enclave in response to deadly attacks in the Sinai Peninsula. Two attacks on Friday in Sinai, which borders the Gaza Strip and Israel, killed at least 33 Egyptian security personnel in some of the worst anti-state violence since former army chief Abdel Fattah Al Sisi ousted Islamist president Mohamed Morsi of the Muslim Brotherhood last year. Citing “the state of emergency in the border area between Egypt and Gaza” and the closure on Friday of the Rafah crossing, a senior Egyptian diplomat said indirect talks between Israel and Palestinian factions would not resume in the coming week. No new date for the negotiations was announced.

Headline:    Is ISIS Expanding into Egypt?

Recent statements by the Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham (ISIS), Ansar Bayt al-Maqdis, and an alleged new group called the “Soldiers of the Caliphate in the Land of Egypt” has given rise to speculation that ISIS may be seeking to expand beyond Iraq and Syria into new territories such as Egypt. This fear is compounded by the recent arrest of an individual at the Cairo airport, allegedly seeking to travel to Syria for training with ISIS. He is also accused of recruiting Egyptians to train in Syria for the purpose of returning to Egypt to carry out attacks against security forces. It is possible that Egyptian authorities are falsely associating individuals or groups with ISIS in an attempt to legitimize harsh security measures. At this time it does not appear that ISIS is operating in Egypt or actively seeking to gain an operational footprint there, although recent events suggest viable routes for expansion by the Islamic State should it choose to pursue them. A new group calling itself Soldiers of the Caliphate in the Land of Egypt released its first statement on jihadist forums September 23, 2014. In the statement the group pledged allegiance to the self-proclaimed caliph of the Islamic State, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, and stated that their aim is to target the Egyptian army, foreign embassies, and foreign nationals, especially Americans. Whether the threats made in the statement by the Soldiers of the Caliphate in the Land of Egypt are acted upon or not, it is worth noting that ISIS is continuing to gain support from like-minded individuals and groups from across the Middle East and beyond. The highly publicized gains ISIS has amassed coupled with their massive media campaign will push more jihadist groups and individuals to express affinity for ISIS or to adopt ISIS tactics in pursuing their own goals. We may see a type of brand franchising involving the creation of affiliates or associates under the Caliphate similar to those aligned with al-Qaeda, whether as an effort to join in the Caliphate or in an effort to utilize the ISIS “brand” to garner publicity. The Soldiers of the Caliphate in the Land of Algeria or in Egypt may be among the first such groups.

Syria Headline:  Syrian Rebels Clash With Government Troops, 35 Die

Islamist militants linked to al Qaeda entered Idlib in northern Syria on Monday and opened up a new front in a city that has been controlled by President Bashar al-Assad’s forces for more than a year, both sides said. State television said the Nusra Front militants infiltrated Idlib at dawn and were confronted by troops and pro-government militias. The Nusra Front said its fighters killed dozens, including officers, in the attack and seized buildings. Referring to Monday’s fighting, the Nusra Front said on its social media account that its forces cut the supply route to Idlib city as well as seizing the governorate building. They also seized two tanks and captured 12 soldiers. The British-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, which monitors violence in Syria, said the insurgents were pushed out of the governorate building and a captured police station later on Monday.

Syria Headline:  British Captive John Cantlie Reports from Kobani in IS Video

Syria Headline:  More than 800 people killed since the beginning of clashes in Kobani

The Islamic State (IS) released a video featuring British captive John Cantlie reporting from Kobani about the group’s control over the city despite Western media broadcasting the contrary. The 5 minute, 32 second video, entitled, “Inside ‘Ayn al-Islam,” was produced by the IS’ al-I’tisaam Media Foundation, and was distributed on Twitter on October 27, 2014. Cantlie, dressed in a black outfit, stands atop a building in Kobani and speaks on what he sees below him and in the distance, and claims that the IS has essentially secured victory in the city. He stated: “Kobani is now being reinforced by Iraqi Kurds who are coming in through Turkey, while the mujahideen are being resupplied by the hopeless United States Air Forces, who parachuted two crates of weapons and ammunition straight into the outstretched arms of the mujahideen. Now the battle for Kobani is coming to an end. The mujahideen are just mopping up now, street to street, and building to building. You can occasionally hear erratic gunfire in the background as a result of those operations. But contrary to what the Western media would have you believe, it is not an all-out battle here now. It is nearly over. As you can hear, it is very quiet, just the occasional gunfire. “Two-hundred thousand inhabitants of the city have been displaced because of the fighting that came here. You can see the refugee camps over my right shoulder over there in Turkey, where the inhabitants now are. But contrary to media reports, the fighting in Kobani is nearly over

Iraq Headline:  Car bombings in Iraq kill at least 34

Two car bombings in Iraq, including one where a suicide attacker drove a Humvee into a checkpoint manned by Iraqi troops and pro-government Shiite militiamen, killed at least 34 people Monday, authorities said. The deadliest attack struck the outskirts of the Sunni town of Jurf al-Skhar, where the suicide bomber rammed his explosives-laden Humvee into the checkpoint, killing at least 24 people and wounding 25, a police officer said. Most of those killed were members of the Shiite militia, he added. No one immediately claimed responsibility for the attack. Jurf al-Sakhar is 30 miles south of Baghdad, but the bombing bore all the hallmarks of an attack by the Islamic State group. Islamic State group militants lost control of the town Sunday, when Iraqi soldiers and the Shiite militia retook it from the Sunni extremist group. Monday night, a car bomb blast near a line of shops and restaurants in downtown Baghdad killed 10 people and wounded 18, police said.

Iraq Headline: Iraq PM seeks more Jordan help to battle ISIS

Iraqi Prime Minister Haidar al-Abadi called for greater cooperation with Jordan in the battle against the Islamic State jihadist group, as he held talks Sunday in Amman, state media reported. Jordan, which borders Iraq’s Anbar province, much of which has been overrun by ISIS, is one of several countries taking part in U.S.-led air strikes against the extremist group that began in Iraq but has since been expanded to Syria. Abadi met separately with King Abdullah II and Prime Minister Abdullah Nsur. He briefed Nsur on what he called “security and terrorist challenges facing Iraq, particularly ones from Daesh which is destroying Iraqi civilisation,” Jordan’s state news agency Petra said. King Abdullah also pledged Jordan’s “full support” for Baghdad and the U.S.-led coalition “in confronting terrorist organizations”, the palace said.

In addition, a government-held base in the nearby city of Avdiivka was also hit by heavy rockets. There were no immediate reports of casualties or damage from the shelling, however. The shelling comes a day after Ukraine’s parliamentary vote, in which the regions of Donetsk and Lugansk did not participate.

Headline:  Report: Russia, Iran running joint war room in Iraq against ISIL

Iran and Russia were said to have been operating a war room in Iraq to block Islamic State of Iraq and Levant. The Lebanese daily Al Mustaqbal reported that Iran and Russia were operating a joint operations center in Iraq. The daily, quoting Iraqi sources, said the joint facility focused on stopping the advance of ISIL toward Baghdad. “Russian experts with Iranian experts and military commanders in Iraq assigned to confront ISIL contributed to the formation of a joint operations room,” Al Mustaqbal said. In a report on Oct. 23, the newspaper said Russia deployed scores of military advisers for the operations center with Iran. Al Mustaqbal said the Iranians and Russians were advising the Iraqi Defense Ministry as well as training soldiers and Iraqi pilots on flying Russian aircraft. There was no confirmation of the report. But Russia has announced exports of attack helicopters to Baghdad as well as training and maintenance personnel. The United States was said to have a large foreign presence in Iraq. But Kurdish sources said Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps was overseeing a force of some 5,000 in northern Iraq. “There are a number of Russian and Iranian experts that were overseeing the latest developments in Iraq as well as the battles with ISIL,” an Iraqi source was quoted as saying.

A Libyan army spokesperson said on Sunday the clashes have resulted in fierce exchanges of fire in different parts of Libya’s second-largest city. “A number of army units today broke into houses of militants suspected of violence in the city in the past few months,” said Ahmad al-Mismari. “The army has gone through fierce battles in different parts of the city, especially in the western entrance,” al-Mismari added. The latest casualties bring the death toll since the beginning of the military operations in mid-October to at least 170. On Wednesday night, the Libyan military forces, backed by armed supporters of former General Khalifa Haftar, entered the flashpoint city of Benghazi for the first time in two months.

Germany

Headline:  Germany: 14 Injured in Far-Right Violence

Police in Germany used water cannons and pepper spray against protesters after a demonstration organized by far-right groups in the western city of Cologne turned violent Sunday. A spokesman for the city’s police said officers in riot gear were deployed to calm the situation after protesters threw bottles, stones and fireworks at them. A police vehicle was also overturned by protesters. Thirteen officers and one protester were injured in the clashes, said police spokesman Andre Fassbender. Six people were detained, but further arrests would likely follow a review of video footage, he said. Some 2,000 people had massed in the heart of Cologne’s historic center for a demonstration ostensibly aimed against Islamic extremism. It was organized by neo-Nazi groups and members of Germany’s football hooligan scene. German news agency dpa reported that some protesters were heard chanting “foreigners out.” Oct. 26, 2014

Headline:    Turkey tear-gasses citizens ‘for their safety’

Turkish tear-gassed journalists and observers after an attempt to remove them from two hills overlooking the Syrian border town of Kobane, according to a Rudaw team at the scene.  Military vehicles swept into the area on Sunday, ordering all present on two hills, approximately 1.5 kilometers northwest of the city, to a third hill a kilometer further north with a limited view of the city.  The military cited concerns for the viewers’ safety, without further elaboration.  While most international media decamped to the new area, a number of individuals on the second hill refused to leave despite Turkish orders, prompting the military to fire tear gas at them.  Journalists and observers, many of whom have relatives still on the Syrian side of the border, have positioned themselves on the hills overlooking Kobane since the Islamic State began their offensive against the city in mid-September.  The Rudaw team on the Turkish border reported three rounds of coalition airstrikes in the city beginning Saturday between 10pm and 2 am. There was also fighting east and south of the city, giving way to relative calm on Sunday morning.  Fighting erupted again on Sunday between ISIS and the People’s Protection Units (YPG), the Syrian Kurdish force defending the city, when coalition airplanes bombed an ISIS target at approximately 12:30pm.  Two large pillars of smoke rose above the city on Sunday afternoon. One was the result of the airstrike in the ISIS-controlled eastern part of the city. The much larger plume rose from western neighborhoods held by the YPG following a militant attack.

Yemeni security officials say at least 250 people have been killed in three days of fighting between Shiite Houhti rebels and an influential tribe in the town of Radda in central Bayda province. Fighters from the strong Qifa tribe, after three days of fierce fighting, forced the Houthis Monday out of the Manasih area in Radda, the officials said. The Houthis, widely suspected of links to mostly Shiite Iran, gained control of the capital Sanaa in September and have waged ongoing battles with opposing tribes and militants from Al-Qaeda’s Yemen branch. The security officials spoke on condition of anonymity according to rules. A peace agreement signed between the Houthis and the government has so far failed to end the fighting.

The number of cases in the Ebola outbreak has exceeded 10,000, with 4,922 deaths, the World Health Organization says in its latest report. Only 27 of the cases have occurred outside the three worst-hit countries, Sierra Leone, Liberia and Guinea. Those three countries account for all but 10 of the fatalities. Mali became the latest nation to record a death, a two-year-old girl. More than 40 people known to have come into contact with her have been quarantined. The latest WHO situation report says that Liberia remains the worst affected country, with 2,705 deaths. Sierra Leone has had 1,281 fatalities and there have been 926 in Guinea. Nigeria has recorded eight deaths and there has been one in Mali and one in the United States. The WHO said the number of cases was now 10,141 but that the figure could be much higher, as many families were keeping relatives at home rather than taking them to treatment centres. It said many of the centres were overcrowded. And the latest report also shows no change in the number of cases and deaths in Liberia from the WHO’s previous report, three days ago. Eight countries have registered cases in the outbreak. In West Africa, Senegal and Nigeria have now been declared virus-free by the WHO.

Headline:  Holder: US acknowledges gay marriage in six more states, total now 33 including DC

Attorney General Eric Holder said Saturday the U.S. government is recognizing same-sex marriages in six additional states, which will make those spouses eligible for federal benefits. The announcement follows gay marriages recently becoming legal in those states: Alaska, Arizona, Idaho, North Carolina, West Virginia and Wyoming. It also follows the Supreme Court saying earlier this month that it will not hear appeals from five states trying to keep in place their marriage bans. Last week, Holder made the same announcement for Colorado, Indiana, Nevada, Oklahoma, Utah, Virginia and Wisconsin, which means the federal government now recognizes gay marriage in 32 states and the District of Columbia. Couples married in these states will qualify for a range of federal benefits, including Social Security and veterans’ benefits. “With each new state where same-sex marriages are legally recognized, our nation moves closer to achieving full equality for all Americans,” Holder said.

Headline:     Minister Perry Warns: Jerusalem Situation a ‘Ticking Time Bomb’

Jerusalem will step up its security level following threats made during a second violent day in the city. In an attempt to prevent rioting, Jerusalem police announced there will be restrictions on who can enter the Temple Mount for Friday prayers, Israel Radio reported. Though Muslim women of all ages will be able to enter the Temple Mount, only men above aged 40 and up will be allowed to enter the area. Earlier in the day, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ordered an additional Border Police company to the capital. The prime minister added that Israel will step up its intelligence and law enforcement efforts throughout the city. “This, and additional measures,” which he said he did not want to elaborate on, will restore quiet to the capital, he said. The decisions comes less than two days after a Hamas terrorist killed a three-month-old baby and injured several others in a violent car rampage. In the latest incident of violence, Israel Radio reported that Arab rioters threw firecrackers, Molotov cocktails and rocks at Jewish homes in the Old City. The rioters were eventually dispersed by Israel Police and border police. No damage or injuries were reported. On Thursday, masked Arab assailants hurled stones at a kindergarten in the Ma’aleh Zeitim neighborhood, not far from the Palestinian quarter of Ras al-Amud in the eastern part of the capital. Earlier on Thursday, unidentified assailants threw stones at the Jerusalem light rail station in Shuafat, just hours after the deadly vehicular terror attack which killed a Jewish infant girl. Jerusalem police vow to step up arrests of rioters in wake of the attack. There were also reports of Palestinian stone-throwing toward police and Border Police units operating in the Issawiya section of east Jerusalem. Police used crowd-dispersal methods to quell the unrest.

The London-based media outlet Asharq Alawsat had reported that the Palestinians acquiesced to U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry’s request to delay the petition and return to negotiations with Israel. The Palestinians reportedly stated that their condition for returning to negotiations would be for Israel to present a map with the borders of a future Palestinian state. According to Erekat, the U.S. government relayed a message to the PA in Ramallah that the U.S. would use its veto power on any Palestinian proposal brought before the Security Council. Erekat warned that if the U.S. vetoes the Palestinian proposal, the Palestinians will stop all security coordination with Israel and will take unilateral measures, including joining international organizations and the International Criminal Court at The Hague. PA Foreign Minister Riyad al-Maliki also denied agreeing to postpone the U.N. Security Council petition. Maliki told Palestinian radio the PA would turn to the Security Council once they know they have secured the required nine of 15 affirmative votes.

Headline: Israeli envoy: Jordanian king criticizing Israel to appease allies

Israel’s ambassador to Jordan suggested that King Abdullah II’s recent allegation that Israel kills Arab children en masse stems from pressure by Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Egypt. Ambassador Daniel Nevo offered the commentary in an interview that aired Friday on Army Radio. Abdullah leveled the accusation at Israel earlier this week during his meeting with Jordanian lawmakers. “If, as we are fighting radical Islamist groups as a coalition, they are slaughtering children in Gaza and Jerusalem every five minutes, then it’s impossible,” said Abdullah II of Jordan, who usually employs less inflammatory language when speaking about Israel. Nevo would not comment directly on the king’s statement but spoke generally about the monarch’s predicament as one of Israel’s closest allies in the region. “The king is being attacked by countries like Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and even Egypt on how the Israelis allegedly are disrespecting him,” Nevo told Army Radio when asked to comment on Abdullah’s use of harsh language. “They don’t see the whole picture.” He added: “The violence at the Temple Mount puts Abdullah II in an embarrassing situation each time anew.” The 20-year anniversary of peace with Israel, which will occur next week, will not be noted or celebrated in Jordan, according to Army Radio. “People on the Jordanian street, they don’t watch Israeli television. They watch Al Jazeera. So how do you expect him to celebrate the anniversary?” Nevo asked.

Lebanon announced on Thursday it will not accept any more refugees from neighboring war-torn Syria, except in what authorities deem to be “exceptional” cases – a move that could prevent tens of thousands of Syrians from escaping the civil war. Information Minister Ramzi Jreij said Lebanon can simply not handle any more refugees. The tiny Mediterranean country has 1.1 million officially registered Syrian refugees, although the number is believed to be far higher. They make up almost a quarter of the country’s population of 5 million.
The refugees have stretched the country’s already fragile infrastructure and compete with Lebanon’s poorest for low-paid jobs, causing tensions. Tens of thousands of Syrian children are out of school because there is nowhere to place them. The Syrian refugees already in Lebanon would be encouraged to leave, said Jreij.

Syria Headline: U.S. investigating whether Islamic State launched chlorine attack in Iraq

Kurds battling Islamic State militants for control of Kobani fear the extremist group may have used an unidentified chemical weapon, according to officials and one of the few doctors still working in the besieged Syrian town. Patients with blisters, burning eyes and breathing difficulties turned up at a clinic after a blast was heard on Tuesday evening, Dr Walat Omar said. He described the symptoms as abnormal and said he could not identify their cause, but suspected a chemical weapon. “After a loud explosion [on Tuesday night], we received some patients with abnormal symptoms. They reported a bad smell which produced some kind of allergic reaction,” Omar said in a telephone interview that was periodically disrupted by heavy explosions. Islamic State (Isis) is thought to have obtained stocks of ageing but still potent chemical weapons when it seized Iraqi army bases where they were stored, the New York Times reported earlier this month. In June, the group took control of a sprawling complex that had been the heart of Saddam Hussein’s chemical weapons programme, Al-Muthanna State Establishment. There may also have been chemical weapons buried or abandoned elsewhere, that were not destroyed by US forces or the Iraqi military. Stocks manufactured before 1991 are dirty, corroded and not always easy to identify or use, but can still cause serious injury. Iraqi officials said 11 police officers were poisoned by chlorine gas last month, when Isis fighters used it to attack the Iraqi town of Duluiya. All the officers survived.

Iraq Headline:  Renewed ISIS attacks leave Yazidi fighters in Iraq pleading for help

Yazidi fighters protecting hundreds of families trapped on Iraq’s Mount Sinjar are pleading for help over fears that a “large scale attack” by the Islamic State is imminent. After weeks of resistance, tribal defenders of the Yazidi religious minority were besieged by Islamic State jihadists on the mountain on Monday. “The situation is really bad and it’s worsening by the minute,” Barakat, a fighter on the mountain told Reuters. “We are surrounded by IS militants from all four directions. The streets at the foot of the mountain are completely under IS control.” The fighter said 500-600 families are stranded on the mountain and helicopters that have been dropping supplies can only evacuate small numbers of people at a time. Awar, another Yazidi fighter, said Thursday that ISIS militants are amassing on the eastern side of the mountain, according to Reuters. “There’s a strong possibility that a large scale attack is coming tonight or tomorrow morning,” he added. Yazidi fighters – who are short on supplies, like food and clothing – are pleading for more assistance, as their weapons are proving to be ineffective against Humvees operated by ISIS militants.

Iraq Headline:  Iraqi military claims retaking town near Baghdad from ISIS

The Iraqi military said Friday that it had recaptured a town south of Baghdad from Islamic State. The soldiers were backed by allied Shi’ite militia in their counter-attack against the radical Sunni group, which brands Shi’ites as heretics. The army is in complete control of the mainly Sunni town of Jurf al-Sakhr, some 60 kilometers south-west of Baghdad, government-run Al-Iraqiya TV reported. Jurf al-Sakr is located near a major route linking Baghdad to Iraq’s largely Shi’ite provinces in the south.

Kurdish Headline: Kurds deny deal with Turkey to let ‘FSA’ in Kobani

Kurdish Headline: Turkey says Over 1,000 Syrian rebels heading to Kobani

Syrian Kurdish fighters in the northern town of Kobani have denied any agreement with Turkey to allow in the so-called Free Syrian Army (FSA) militants to fight ISIL terrorists. During a Friday telephone interview from Brussels, head of Kurdish Democratic Union Party (PYD), Saleh Moslem, denied Ankara’s claim after President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said earlier on the day that 1,300 FSA militants will be sent to Kobani to help defend the city. Moslem said the FSA would better open a second front to fight ISIL rather than going to the Kurdish city. Meanwhile, PYD has accused Ankara of helping ISIL terrorists by turning a blind eye to at least 120 militants crossing the border into Syria earlier this week. In a separate interview with Asharq al-Awsat daily, Moslem said new information shows the extremist militants planned to use chemical weapons against Kobani. Kurdish officials and doctors said on Wednesday that the terrorists released a sort of toxic gas in the eastern side of the Kurdish city late on Tuesday. Meanwhile, Iraq’s Kurdish regional parliament agreed on Wednesday to allow sending Peshmerga forces to Kobani to help the Syrian Kurds fighting there. The decision could be a turning point in the battle.

Kurdish Headline: Three Kurdish militants killed in attack on Turkish power plant

Turkish soldiers killed three Kurdish militants who were part of a group that attacked a power plant in the eastern province of Kars, Turkish sources said on Friday. Fighters from the outlawed Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) set fire to two vehicles and a cabin at the plant in Kagizman district, and shot at soldiers who returned fire, the general staff said in a statement on its website. Three PKK guerrillas were killed and a search was launched for the others, a security source said. The shootout followed unrest in eastern Turkey earlier this month in which dozens died, triggered after Kurds rioted at what they saw as the government’s refusal to help Syrian Kurds fighting Islamic State jihadists in the besieged town of Kobani on Turkey’s southern border.

Headline: Gulf Arab allies ask U.S. to stop talking about their role in war on ISIL

The United States has stopped providing details of Arab participation in the coalition against Islamic State of Iraq and Levant. Officials said Arab partners in the coalition against ISIL no longer wanted Washington to release details of their operations. They said such countries as Jordan and Saudi Arabia sought to avoid an Islamic backlash from striking ISIL positions in Iraq and Syria. “They found it very uncomfortable being in the spotlight,” an official said. The Defense Department has identified Arab coalition partners as Bahrain, Jordan, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates. In October, the Pentagon released details of Arab air strikes on ISIL strongholds in Iraq and Syria. By Oct. 14, the Pentagon stopped reporting on Arab participation in U.S.-led air strikes on ISIL. At the same time, officials acknowledged that Arab fighter-jet operations were deemed ineffective, with pilots unable to find ISIL targets. A week later, the U.S. military said it was ending reporting on the activity of other nations in the anti-ISIL coalition. Central Command did not cite any of the Arab participants, but on Oct. 22, Centcom identified Britain and France.

NATO head Jens Stoltenberg called on Russia Friday to withdraw its troops from Ukraine as the country prepares for key national elections which pro-Moscow rebels plan to prevent in areas they control. Stoltenberg, who took office last month with the crisis top of his agenda, said Russia’s continued presence and support for the rebels violated international law, as well as Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial integrity. Moscow denies that it has any military presence in Ukraine or that it supplies pro-Russian rebels there with weapons.
Kiev and the rebels agreed a cease-fire on September 5, which has been frequently breached.

Iran

Headline:  Pakistan and Iran exchange mortar fire on border

Pakistani and Iranian forces have exchanged mortar fire along their porous border. Pakistani officials said Iran fired six mortar shells, which landed near the border town of Mashkail. Pakistan is then thought to have fired back. The two countries share a long desert border which straddles Balochistan province in south-west Pakistan and Sistan Baluchistan in eastern Iran. Last week, Pakistan said a soldier died and three were hurt by Iranian guards. Pakistan has been accused by predominantly Shia Muslim Iran of failing to stop cross-border attacks on its forces by extremist Sunni Muslim militants. Sistan Baluchistan, which also borders Afghanistan, has been the scene of frequent clashes in recent years between Iranian security forces and drug-smugglers and Sunni rebel groups. This escalation comes at a time when Pakistan is already facing tensions with India on its eastern border.

Libya’s armed forces announced on Friday that they have regained control of residential areas of the eastern city of Benghazi, where a coalition of armed militias have held sway for several months. Two army units, the 21^st stormtrooper brigade and 204 tanks division, advanced on Thursday towards Libya’s second city from the town of al-Bayda, some 200 kilometres east of Benghazi. The forces retook control of Benina International Airport, which has been a flashpoint for battles in recent weeks – fierce fighting there on 9 October killed militia leader Salim Nabbous. After taking the airport, the Libyan army brigades advanced further south-west towards central Benghazi. Heavy clashes then ensued inside the city between Libya’s armed forces and fighters from the Shura Council of Revolutionaries, a coalition of militias including Ansar al-Sharia that was formed in June 2014. After intense fighting, the Libyan army announced on Friday morning that they had retaken the Amin district of Benghazi, a residential area in the south of the city. Some residents of the city took to the streets to welcome the incoming soldiers, who advanced with heavy weaponry and tanks.

Tunisian security forces on Friday killed six people, including five women, after a standoff with an Islamist militant group on the outskirts of Tunis two days before a parliamentary election, authorities said. The raid on the house in Oued Ellil, west of Tunis, was the latest operation in Tunisia’s crackdown on Islamist militants authorities say threaten the country’s transition to democracy following the 2011 fall of Zine El-Abidine Ben Ali. A number of militants including women had been holed up in a house since Thursday after clashes in which one police officer was killed when troops surrounded the building, according to security officials. Authorities said one man and five women were killed when troops stormed the house on Friday. Officials said two children were also rescued from the house.

Headline:  Morocco “Very Concerned” By Israeli Escalation In Al Quds Asharif

Morocco is “very concerned” by the Israeli escalation in Al Quds Asharif and calls the international community to take up its responsibilities and make pressures to lead Israel to stop its assaults on Al Aqsa mosque and end the judaization acts and construction of settlements in the holy city. “The Kingdom of Morocco is following with great concern Israel’s escalation regarding the issue of Al Quds Asharif, as Israeli authorities are repeatedly making provoking statements in an attempt to undermine the legal status of Al Quds Asharif as part and parcel of the occupied Palestinian territories in 1967, as it had been set by the international resolutions,” says a statement of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Cooperation released this Friday. These practices are likely to contribute to bogging down the Palestinian issue into the labyrinth of religious and inter-faith conflicts, in the run up to the holy sites occupation, the release deplores. Morocco, which also voiced concerns over systematic and repeated assaults against Al Aqsa Mosque, as well the intensification of settlements in the holy city, also strongly denounced Israel’s hostile behavior which deepens the feeling of injustice among the Palestinians and the millions of Muslims worldwide.

Germany’s foreign minister Thursday offered Berlin’s experience in postwar reconciliation to Armenia and Turkey to help them forge peace a century after a World War I-era massacre. On a visit to Yerevan, Frank-Walter Steinmeier said Germany’s long road to partnership with France after two world wars could serve as an example following the 1915 slaughter of Armenians during World War I. “When it comes to the bloody history of the 20th century, in which Germany started two world wars, we should not present ourselves as the schoolmasters,” he told reporters after talks with his Armenian counterpart Edward Nalbandian in Yerevan. “But we can offer our experience.” He noted that he had also told Turkish leaders earlier this year that Germany and France had worked hard to overcome the hatred of previous generations. “After a difficult century, we have reconciled by not keeping silent about our historical responsibility” but by “working through the horrific things that happened,” he said. “If our experience can be helpful, we are ready to offer it,” he said, citing youth exchange programs as one initiative that had helped to build bridges. “But that must be decided here.” Nalbandian said Armenia was ready to reduce tensions with Turkey but insisted the ball was in Ankara’s court.

Police detained 17 students after a clash erupted between pro-Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) and leftist students at İstanbul University on Friday. According to media reports, fighting erupted between the two groups on Friday morning. Many riot police officers were sent to break up the fight at the university, and they detained a total of 17 students. Media reports stated that some of the detained students were slightly injured. The detainees were mainly members of the Muslim Youth Group, who shouted chants like “Live long, Muslim students,” “We are Muslim students; the insults made to us will not be left unpunished” and “We are Muslim students. Because they [the leftist students] insulted Islam, we did what was necessary.” The detained students were taken to the police station for questioning. The riot police have taken strict security measures around İstanbul University’s Faculty of Science, where the fight took place. This tension that erupted on Friday was not the first incident between pro-ISIL students and other student groups at İstanbul University.

Headline: Police prepare for grand jury decision in Ferguson

Missouri police have been brushing up on constitutional rights and stocking up on riot gear to prepare for a grand jury’s decision about whether to charge a white police officer who fatally shot a black 18-year-old in suburban St. Louis. The preparations are aimed at avoiding a renewed outbreak of violence during the potentially large demonstrations that could follow an announcement of whether Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson will face a criminal trial for the Aug. 9 death of Michael Brown. Police and protesters have repeatedly clashed since the shooting, which prompted a national conversation about race and police tactics. Images of officers in riot gear and armored vehicles confronting protesters have drawn widespread criticism. Many protesters want Wilson indicted for murder. Grand jury proceedings are secret, but legal analysts say recently leaked information about Wilson’s testimony to investigators may be an attempt to prepare the public for the possibility that he might not be charged. The decision could be made public within the next month.

The demonstrators gathered in Aden’s Parade Square to mark a “Day of Anger” called by the Supreme Council of the Revolutionary Peaceful Movement for the Liberation and Independence of the South, a new coalition of two major separatist groups. Waving flags of the former South Yemen, they chanted “we demand freedom and independence” and “independence or death.”

Headline:  French unemployment hits new record high

After a slight improvement in August, the number of jobless in France once again increased in September, reaching a new record high of 3.43 million unemployed, government figures revealed Friday. Data from France’s labor ministry showed unemployment rose by 0.6 percent last month, after the modest 0.3 rise it experienced in August. “Let’s be honest, we are failing,” French Labor Minister François Rebsamen told Le Parisien newspaper on Friday in an unusually candid acknowledgement of France’s massive unemployment problem. The figures were published amid declarations by Prime Minister Manuel Valls which suggested the government may seek reforms to the country’s unemployment benefits and work contracts’ system. In a recent interview in French weekly Les Obs, Valls said he thought France should consider revising existing long-term and short-term contracts in order to merge the two into a single contract system opposed by unions. Speaking from Brussels at the end of a European Council meeting on Friday, President François Hollande said unemployment could not be checked in a sustainable way unless “economic growth returns in Europe.”

China deployed more than 1,200 troops and scrambled fighter jets in response to an unauthorised flight near Beijing airport by what turned out to be a mapping drone, state-run media reported on Thursday. Three men were being prosecuted over the incident, the China Daily said. It cited prosecutors as saying that 1,226 military personnel, 123 military vehicles, 26 radar technicians, two fighter jets and two helicopters were sent into action after the aircraft was spotted on radar screens. Police arrested two men as they flew the drone and a third confessed later, according to the paper, which is published by the government. All three men worked for an aviation technology company, the report said, and the 2.3-metre-long (7.5ft) drone was intended to be used for survey and mapping purposes. China forbids any flights, manned or unmanned, without prior approval from the air force, civil aviation authorities and the local air traffic control bureau.

North Korea said Friday that propaganda leaflets sent by balloon from South Korea is tantamount to a declaration of war. “It’s a de facto declaration of war to insult and slander our supreme self-dignity and system with every kind of false and fabricated information,” Pyongyang stated. The warning comes as activists in South Korea say they plan to dispatch 100,000 leaflets across the border on Saturday. Earlier this month, on the 69th anniversary of the Workers’ Party in the North, South Korean activists floated balloons carrying anti-Pyongyang pamphlets across the border that were then shot at by the North’s military. Some shots landed south of the border, prompting Seoul’s military to return fire. Pyongyang has threatened to “annihilate” those responsible for the pamphlet campaign.

A New York doctor living in Harlem was diagnosed with Ebola on Thursday, after having returned last week from Guinea where he is thought to have treated patients suffering from the epidemic with Doctors Without Borders. New York Mayor Bill de Blasio announced on Thursday evening at Bellevue Hospital Center that the tests had come back positive for Dr. Craig Spencer, reports CBS 2. All four people thought to have had contact with Spencer during the time when he showed symptoms and was in danger of spreading the lethal virus have been quarantined, and officials stressed there is no need to worry, as the virus is only transmitted through direct contact with bodily fluids. Spencer had used the subway system, riding on the A, L and 1 trains, and likewise taken an Uber taxi ride to go bowling at The Gutter in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, said New York City Health Commissioner Dr. Mary Travis Bassett. However, she stressed there was virtually no chance of the disease spreading in those locations, as simply being in the same environment is not enough to become infected with the virus. Meanwhile, a well known and highly respected doctor has come forth with claims that the U.S. government has been intentionally concealing cases of Ebola in the United States. Dr. James Lawrenzi made the comments on Thursday while appearing as a guest on the Alex Jones show. Jones, the host of a nationally broadcast radio talk show, Infowars, has been an outspoken critic of the way in which the Ebola health crisis has been handled by the Obama administration. Lawrenzi, who owns and operates two health care facilities located in in Garden City and Archie, Missouri, claims that the number of Ebola patients in the U.S. is much higher than what the Centers for Disease Control has been letting on. According to Dr. Lawrenzi, his suspicions first arose shortly after news broke that Thomas Eric Duncan, a Liberian visiting family in Dallas, Texas, was diagnosed with the deadly disease in September of 2014. Lawrenzi claims that he was told by a doctor at Truman Lakewood Medical Center in Kansas City that the hospital was also treating a patient with Ebola like symptoms who was demonstrating a high fever and was bleeding profusely from multiple orifices after having recently returned from West Africa. The following day, claims Lawrenzi, the same doctor told him that the patient had “disappeared” but that it was highly unlikely that the patient could have left of his own accord giving his grave medical condition. Another patient displaying classic Ebola like symptoms was then admitted to Kansas City’s Research Medical Center the following day but also quickly “disappeared,” said Lawrenzi. Neither patient has ever been found.

Headline: Cholera sickens nearly 1,000 people in Niger

Doctors Without Borders says a cholera outbreak in the West African country of Niger killed 20 people and has sickened nearly 1,000 people. The medical aid group said Friday that several districts in the country’s south have been affected. Cholera is caused by the ingestion of infected food or water and often occurs in places with poor sanitation. It causes severe diarrhea and vomiting and can lead to death by dehydration, sometimes within a matter of hours.

Headline: Enterovirus D68 Confirmed In Santa Barbara

Enterovirus D68 (EV-D68) is now circulating in the Santa Barbara area. Santa Barbara County Public Health confirmed the first local case late Friday morning involving a 15-year-old girl. County Health Manager Paige Batson told NewsChannel 3 that seven other cases are being tested; Result time varies between seven days and three weeks. “It is important to know it is circulating in our community,” said Batson. Batson said the others being watched include three babies under the age of one, two children under the age of five, and two adults over the age of 65. There are many forms of enterovirus but the EV-D68 version attacks the respiratory system and can cause difficulty breathing, in rare cases, death. For the first time, local health care workers are testing for the EV-D68 version because of a nationwide outbreak. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) website shows EV-D68 levels are elevated right now throughout California, but that infections will likely begin to decline by late fall. Many of the children impacted have asthma or a history of wheezing. The CDC has documented eight deaths releated to EV-D68.

For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due”(Romans)

Headline: Utah Supreme Court clears way for adoption by partners of same-sex spouses

The Utah Supreme Court on Thursday lifted an order that had blocked spouses in same-sex marriages from adopting their partners’ children, state officials said. The state’s highest court had imposed a stay on the adoptions in May, while Utah appealed a federal ruling last year that permitted same-sex marriages for 17 days before the Supreme Court halted them pending appeal. Earlier this month, after the U.S. Supreme Court denied appeals of same-sex marriage bans and an appeals court reaffirmed its order making same-sex marriage legal in the state, Utah Attorney General Sean Reyes ordered county clerks to recognize all legally performed same-sex marriages. On the same day, Reyes petitioned the state Supreme Court to remove its stay of the adoptions, saying the issue was now moot. Missy Larsen, a spokeswoman for Reyes, said the high court’s action on Thursday came in response to that petition.

Headline:   Iranian Pastor Sentenced to Six Years in Prison for Spreading Christianity

An Iranian pastor has been sentenced to six years in prison for spreading Christianity in the nation, an act that is believed to be seen by the government as a threat to the Iranian regime. As previously reported, Behnam Irani, who leads the 300-member Church of Iran in Karaj, was initially detained in 2006 while holding a Bible study and sentenced to prison five years later for “action against the state.” In June, he was interrogated on five occasions for four hours each. Authorities then added 18 new charges against the 41-year-old pastor, including Mofsed fel-Arz or “spreading corruption on Earth,” which carries the death penalty. Another translation of the charge is “enemies of God on Earth.” However, earlier this month, the charges were reduced and Irani instead faced accusations of “action against national security” and “creating a network to overthrow the system,” which are stated to be catchalls to criminalize anyone deemed a threat to the government. On Sunday, Irani was declared guilty by Judge Asel Al-Hosseyn, and two other leaders with the Church of Iran, Abdolreza Ali-Haghnejad and Reza Rabbani, were sentenced as  well.

Headline: Largest sunspot in more than 20 years facing Earth

A massive sunspot region is staring at the Earth, and frequently hurling out high energy solar flares. But so far, none of the flares have been complemented by a blast of plasma known as a coronal mass ejection (CME) that can lead to aurora in the Earth’s atmosphere and interfere with spacecraft operations and power systems. The sunspot region, known as AR2192, is so big that it is visible to a (well-protected) naked eye and was visible during Thursday’s partial solar eclipse. “This is the largest sunspot group since November of 1990,” said Doug Biesecker, a researcher at the National Weather Service Space Weather Prediction Center. Its size is 2,740 millionths of the solar disc which, according to the Web site The Sun Today, is roughly the size of Jupiter. NASA says the largest sunspot on record, observed in 1947, was almost three times as large as AR2192. Consider that AR2192 is 80,000 miles in diameter – and you could lay 10 Earths across it.

A 5.6-magnitude earthquake that recently hit the Colombia-Ecuador border region has triggered fears of eruptions at two volcanoes – Cerro Negro and Chiles – reported Colombia Reports. The Colombian Geological Service has raised the alert level to orange, which indicates “probable eruption in term of days to weeks.” Any eruption would mostly affect Colombia’s Narino region. Cerro Negro and Chiles have not erupted in the last 160,000 years, reports Colombia Reports.

Headline: Rare tornado rips roofs, uproots trees in Washington state

A rare tornado ripped roofs off buildings, uprooted trees and shattered windows Thursday afternoon in the southwest Washington city of Longview, but there were no reports of injuries. A National Weather Service storm survey team from nearby Portland, Oregon, estimated the EF1 tornado carved a path of 1.3 miles and packed winds of 86 to 110 mph, meteorologist Miles Higa said. Longview Fire Chief Phil Jurmu admitted his first reaction was disbelief. “I kind of furrowed my brow, probably, and said `What?”‘ he told KATU-TV of Portland. Still, police and fire crews responded quickly to the hardest-hit area and cordoned it off with help from the National Guard, which has an armory nearby, Jurmu said. Police Chief Jim Duscha told the Daily News of Longview the full extent of damage wouldn’t be known until Friday. Crews quickly started cleaning up under sunny skies that followed the windstorm. Roofs were torn off an assisted living building and a towing company structure, the newspaper reported. Tornadoes are rare in Washington state and the Pacific Northwest, where the nearby Pacific Ocean generally prevents severe temperature changes.
