Headline: Israel tells US it will act if IS reaches Jordan

In talks with US officials about the Islamic State this week, Israel has made clear that should the extremist group start operating in neighboring Jordan, it will not hesitate to act, Channel 2 reported Friday citing diplomatic sources. On Thursday, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israel was doing its part in confronting worldwide jihadist terrorism, though not all of its efforts are known to the public and expressed Jerusalem’s full support for the American-led offensive against the Islamic State organization unveiled Wednesday. In a major foreign policy address, Netanyahu also warned of Iran acquiring nuclear weapons, saying this would cause the “ultimate terror.” Efforts to weaken Sunni terrorists should not result in strengthening Shiite radicalism, he urged.

Headline: High-level talks between Israel, US largely focus on Gaza, peace process

Israeli and US representatives held high-level talks in Washington on Thursday night, as part of the semi-annual series of US-Israel meetings dubbed ‘Strategic Dialogue.’
The US-Israel discussions, headed by Strategic Affairs Minister Yuval Steinitz and Deputy Secretary of State William Burns, centered on a host of hot-button issues – from the changes engulfing the Middle East, to the ever-expanding threat of Islamic State, to joining forces against regional terrorism. The US State Department emphasized the importance of reaching a lasting agreement between Israel and the Palestinians, following the latest round of armed conflict in the Gaza Strip. The parties discussed the recent seven-week conflict in the coastal territory and the urgent need to achieve durable peace and a permanent halt to the fighting. Representatives of both sides have agreed to take action to rehabilitate and provide much-needed humanitarian aid to Gaza, a statement by the State Department said, while at the same time pushing to strengthen the Palestinian Authority. Washington reiterated its concern over settlement activity, in light of Israel’s most recent decision to expand its state land in the West Bank by 4,000 dunams.

Headline: Abbas: PA, Israel reach economic agreement in West Bank, Gaza

Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas said Friday that an agreement has been reached with Israel in which the Palestinian Authority will be able to export and import goods and services to and from the West Bank and the Gaza Strip. “Anything the [Palestinian] Authority wants, it will get, and we will also be able to [work] in the Gaza Strip. This will alleviate the situation for the residents there,” he was quoted by Channel 10 as saying. According to the Palestinian news agnecy Ma’an, the agreement was reached with the help of United Nations representatives. There was no immediate official announcement or response from the Israeli government.

Headline: Hamas acknowledges its forces fired rockets from civilian areas

Headline: Hamas and the Art of Deception

Two weeks after the end of the Gaza war, there is growing evidence that Hamas militants used residential areas as cover for launching rockets at Israel, at least at times. Even Hamas now admits “mistakes” were made. But Hamas says it had little choice in Gaza’s crowded urban landscape, took safeguards to keep people away from the fighting, and that a heavy-handed Israeli response is to blame for the deaths of hundreds of Palestinian civilians. “Gaza, from Beit Hanoun in the north to Rafah in the south, is one uninterrupted urban chain that Israel has turned into a war zone,” said Ghazi Hamad, a senior Hamas official in Gaza. Increasingly, the discussion is not about whether the Hamas rockets were fired from civilian areas, but exactly how close they were to the actual buildings. “The Israelis kept saying rockets were fired from schools or hospitals when in fact they were fired 200 or 300 meters (yards) away. Still, there were some mistakes made and they were quickly dealt with,” Hamad told The Associated Press, offering the first acknowledgment by a Hamas official that, in some cases, militants fired rockets from or near residential areas or civilian facilities.

Headline: MK Feiglin Warns of a New Intifada in Jerusalem

Headline: Friday afternoon prayers end with arrests on Temple Mount

MK Moshe Feiglin (Likud) visited eastern Jerusalem and the Temple Mount on Thursday with members of the Internal Affairs Committee, where he told Arutz Sheva that he is convinced the wave of terror in the capital will only increase in coming days. “The loss of control over Jerusalem, and by continuation also over Gaza, started on the Temple Mount,” Feiglin said, while at the French Hill gas station that Arab rioters tried to explode on Sunday. Feiglin’s comments come in the wake of the dismantling of a new access ramp to the Temple Mount in a folding to Jordanian pressure, and recommendations by MKs, including those of the Jewish Home, to maintain the status quo of de facto Jordanian Waqf (Islamic Trust) control. “The one who controls the Mount controls the land, and first of all (controls) Jerusalem,” emphasized Feiglin to Arutz Sheva. “Whoever thought that they could abandon the Mount for over 40 years to Hamas and extremist Islam and conquer Jerusalem through the Zionist method of ‘another sheep another dunam’ (i.e. building) – I think we must understand now that they were wrong.” Feiglin stressed that the Temple Mount is the center of Jerusalem, warning that many “still think we can take our Zionist actions in reverse, and that the Israeli leadership that ignores the Mount will advance us in the process of redemption and everything will be okay.” However, the abandonment of the Mount and “depressed” ending of Operation Protective Edge, in which decisive military action to remove the Hamas threat was not recorded, will only spur terror in Jerusalem according to the MK. “Hamas in its mind won the war, its standing in the Muslim world was increased enormously, and what we did to them in Gaza interests (Hamas leader) Ismail Haniyeh about as much as last year’s snow,” remarked Feiglin.

Headline: Anti-Semitic Attacks up 400% in UK, Double in France

Anti-Semitic attacks nearly doubled in France in the first seven months of 2014, the country’s main Jewish group said Thursday. A total of 529 anti-Semitic actions or threats were registered up to the end of July, against 276 for the same period last year, the Council of Jewish Institutions in France (CRIF) said, citing figures gleaned from the French Interior Ministry. The acts included violence against individuals, arson and vandalism, and “exacerbate the growing unease that oppresses Jews in France each day and overshadows their future”, CRIF said in a statement. Yet more worrying, the group added, is the appearance of new forms of violence against Jews – including attacks by organized gangs and the targeting of synagogues, as well as acts of vandalism against Jewish businesses and planned terrorist attacks. Meanwhile in the UK, the Community Security Trust (CST) anti-Semitism watchdog group reports 302 anti-Semitic incidents in July alone, making a whopping 400% increase over the same month last year. English anti-Semitism has been heard from the government itself during Operation Protective Edge, with the government threatening to cut 12 arms export licenses with Israel over the fighting against the terrorist group Hamas. Likewise, radical left-wing British MP George Galloway infamously declared his city of Bradford in northern England “Israeli free.”

Headline:  Muslim Brotherhood in Jordan calls to end ties with ‘the Jews’

In a protest against Israel’s 50-day operation against Hamas and other terror operatives in the Gaza Strip, a senior member of the Jordanian Muslim Brotherhood decried the kingdom’s diplomatic relations with the Jewish state, and offered his and the Jordanian people’s unwavering support for Palestinian “resistance” fighters who wage “jihad” against IDF soldiers and Israeli civilians. Speaking to a crowd of hundreds of protesters on August 29, Himam Said, the general supervisor of the Jordanian Muslim Brotherhood, said that the Hashemite Kingdom’s population, unlike its political leaders, backed the Palestinians in their struggle to defeat the state of Israel. “I have a message to official Jordan,” the Brotherhood representative said, according to a translation provided Thursday by MEMRI, the Middle East Media Research Institute, apparently addressing Jordanian diplomats and members of parliament. “This message is not directed at the people of Jordan, for the people of Jordan are here,” he continued, gesturing at the masses of people who had gathered at the scene. “The entire population of Jordan supports the resistance and the jihad, the tribes as well as the refugee camps, from north to south.” Said went on to lead the crowd in a chant, praising Hamas leaders Ismail Haniyeh and Khaled Mashaal, as the demonstrators in the plaza waved flags of the Gaza-based terror group. “I say to official Jordan, your ties with the Jews are hopeless, and the partner of the hopeless is hopeless too,” Said continued.

Jumblatt added that the threat of the Islamic State jihadist group should not be underestimated. “If IS manage to link Arsal to Akkar as they plan, then we would be facing a huge problem,” Jumblatt said. He also called for politician to support the army. “The army has become the only sign of hope in this period of darkness,” he said.

Headline: ISIS has created ‘more than 40 cells’ in Lebanon

ISIS has established more than 40 undercover cells in Lebanon, according to top secret information obtained by a security body, heightening fears that new terror attacks may be on the horizon. Each cell is believed to comprise three or four people of Lebanese, Syrian, Palestinian, Jordanian or Iraqi nationality who have been highly trained with guns, explosive belts, land mines and other weapons, a security source said. The cell members, according to the information, have been trained in batches in Syria’s Aleppo and Deir al-Zor and in Lebanon’s West Bekaa, Iqlim al-Kharroub, Akkar and Naameh, reportedly by defected soldiers from the Syrian Army, and Lebanese and Palestinian nationals. The ISIS cells have also apparently been provided with encrypted digital communication devices and pistols with silencers, the information revealed. Most of the members are believed to have been instructed to act normally and fly under the radar of security and intelligence bodies by wearing ordinary clothes and frequenting nightclubs and cafes. Some of the cell members are thought to be carrying fake university IDs.

Headline: Security forces disperse pro-Morsi protests in Cairo, Alexandria

Dozens of protesters supporting ousted Islamist president Mohamed Morsi gathered on Friday in different cities around Egypt, calling on the government to free all “political detainees” including Morsi, Al-Ahram Arabic news website reported. In East Cairo`s Ain Shams district, a strong base for the ousted president, security forces dispersed protesters who gathered shortly after Friday prayers. The supporting protesters chanted slogans against the military and the government. Demonstrators also gathered in Dar El-Salam in south Cairo, where forces fired teargas to disperse them. A security source told Al-Ahram Arabic website that calm had been restored in these areas. In Alexandria, demonstrators gathered to condemn the current government for the rise in prices, chanting ”down with military rule” “Morsi is our legitimate president” and “free our colleagues and brothers.” Weekly demonstrations after Friday prayers have been common since Morsi’s ouster last year. The number of protesters has greatly diminished following a sustained crackdown by police in which thousands of Morsi supporters have been arrested.

Syria Headline:   US Bolsters Humanitarian Aid for Syrian Conflict

U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry, meeting with Turkish officials to push an international coalition to combat the Islamic State militant group, has announced nearly $500 million in new humanitarian aid for Syrians affected by the militants’ siege. The new U.S. funding focuses both on civilians displaced inside Syria and the more than 3 million Syrian refugees in Jordan, Turkey, Iraq, Lebanon and Egypt. More than half of Syria’s population has been displaced by conflict. This largest single U.S. humanitarian contribution will go through the United Nations appeal for Syria. It brings the total of U.S. humanitarian assistance to more than $2.9 billion since fighting started in 2011. The new funding comes as part of the Obama administration’s broader push to rally neighboring states to fight Islamic State militants.

Syria Headline: Toll from regime air raids near Syrian capital rises to 42

Syrian government air raids on a rebel-held area near Damascus killed 42 people, including seven children, an activist group said Friday, giving an updated toll. Thursday’s airstrikes were carried out in Douma, a satellite suburb northeast of the capital that has been under siege for more than a year “The toll from regime air raids on Douma has risen to 42 dead, including seven children and two women,” said the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, which Thursday had given a death toll of 17. Among those killed were an unspecified number of rebels who have been fighting to oust the regime of President Bashar Assad for more than three years, said the Britain-based group. Activists posted videos on YouTube showing the destruction caused by the raids in Douma, a frequent target of deadly strikes.

The Syrian regime forces regained control of parts of Geweran district in southern Hasakah, northeastern Syria, after clashes with gunmen of Ahrar Geweran, local sources reported. The pro-Assad military forces were reportedly backed by supporters from the National Defence Army (Arab tribal group loyal to President Bashar al-Assad in Hasakah) during the operations against Geweran on Thursday evening, sources told ARA News. Activists based in the city of al-Hasakah confirmed that pro-regime military forces seized control of the al-Sitteen Street and the entrance to al-Beiruti Bridge and al-Basel roundabout in Geweran district. “All parts of southwestern Geweran are captured by pro-Assad forces,” the sources said. Geweran neighbourhood was controlled by gunmen who claimed allegiance to the Islamic State (IS/ISIS) months ago. According to observers, IS militants (who are in control of several areas in the southern countryside of Hasakah) are trying to use Geweran as an entrance to seize the whole city of Hasakah and spread their territories to include the entire northeastern region of Syria, especially after the control of Deir ez-Zor about one month ago. Dozens of fighters were killed during the conflict between pro-Assad forces and Geweran gunmen.

syrian rebels and ISIS ceasefire

As rebels and Islamic State sign historic ceasefire in Damascus, civilians and IS militants alike evacuate Raqqa fearing US airstrikes. Amid reports that IS is regrouping ahead of expected IS attacks, an alliance of rebel groups bashed out a “non-aggression” with IS pact on Friday. The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights reported that moderate and Islamist rebels had signed a ceasefire deal for the first time in a suburb of the capital Damascus. “The two parties will respect a truce until a final solution is found, and they promise not to attack each other because they consider the principal enemy” to be Assad’s government and his forces. News site Orient Net published a list of the 11 clauses to the ceasefire agreement, which aims to halt the fierce clashes that have broken out between rebels and IS in and around Damascus over the past 45 days. The site reported that al-Nusra Front – the militant group that on Thursday released 42 UN peacekeepers captured in the Golan Heights, had mediated between the two sides. Charles Lister, an analyst at the Brookings Institute, reported that the alliance on the rebel side was made up of four distinct groups, among them the US-backed Syria Revolutionary Front.

Iraq Headline: What is behind the Islamic State’s decision to reopen banks in Mosul?

Recently, the reinforced doors of the banks in Mosul were reopened. They had been closed since June 10, when the radical jihadi group the Islamic State (IS) took over the city and put public institutions, particularly banks, under heavy guard. “Cash disbursal is limited to current accounts, and does not include the accounts of government departments and public institutions, and the private accounts of persons (natural or legal persons) who are Christian, Yezidi, Shia, or Sunni ‘apostates’,” according to the IS commission’s classifications. “After the members of the commission interviewed me, they told me I was allowed to withdraw only 10 percent of my balance, provided that it would be no more than 10 million dinars.” He added, “When I tried to persuade them that my balance was worth 300 million dinars, one of them said firmly: You are not the only one, these instructions apply to everyone.” Mosul residents who are still hesitant and apprehensive believe that the goal behind reopening the banks is to access details about the deposit accounts, especially since IS has shown great interest in their finances. For this reason, IS might proceed after this step to seize accounts belonging to government institutions and departments, as well as the accounts of “fugitives,” Christians, and others. IS already levies a fee on the funds withdrawn from banks, to the tune of 10 percent of their value. In the context of explaining IS’ recent procedures, we find that the US Foreign Policy Research Institute had said in its latest report that the funds seized by the organization, estimated at $500 million, would not last for a long time, because of the high cost of the conflict IS is fighting on several fronts. Furthermore, an unknown proportion of these funds is being paid to cover the salaries and pensions of government employees. Otherwise, in the event of failing to pay these wages, IS would risk antagonizing the public.

Shesho said that his forces ambushed the IS convoy at Guhbal town near the Rabia border crossing with Syria. “Al-Hassan is a member of the Jiheshi tribe,” said Shesho. “He was in the Al-Qaeda for many years and later join the IS.” Shesho who also leads new units of Yezidi fighters in the region said that Al-Hassan’s killing “would demoralize the Islamist fighters in the area.” No Peshmerga casualties were reported in the fighting.

The formation of a joint Kurdish force to fight Islamic State (IS) militants moved forward, with a meeting in Erbil between Kurdistan Region Prime Minister Nechirvan Barzani and Kurdish leaders from Turkey. The visiting delegation included the co-leader of the pro-Kurdish Peoples Democratic Party (HDP) Selahattin Demirtas, who last week called for a united Kurdish defense force that would include troops from all four parts of Kurdistan – Iraq, Turkey, Iran and Syria. He controversially demanded that Ankara arm the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK), an insurgent group that has been in conflict with Ankara since 1984, to help confront the threat posed by the Islamic State, the group formerly known as ISIS or ISIL. Demirtas, who was harshly criticized by Turkish officials and media for the suggestion, clarified in a statement Thursday that he meant the force to be formed in Iraqi and Syrian Kurdistan (Rojava), not in Turkey.

President Obama has authorized the Pentagon to target and kill leaders of the Islamic State militant group, with the organization’s head Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi being at the top of the administration’s list. U.S. military officials confirmed to Fox News Thursday that Obama had approved the strikes against individual targets for the first time. The authorization was first reported by the Washington Post. Obama had previously not permitted the military to target individuals from the terrorist organization, also known as ISIS or ISIL, even if intelligence showed where they were located. White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest said in a press briefing Thursday that the president is “actively engaged” in selecting possible Islamic State targets that are “available.” “The president has gotten guidance about targets that are available and would be critical to denying ISIL a safe-haven both in Iraq and in Syria,” Earnest said. Earnest said the administration has identified the targets through ramped up “intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance assets” in the region.

Headline:   US opposed to Iran’s presence at Iraq conference: Kerry

France will join the U.S.-led airstrikes targeting extremists in Iraq as part of an expanding international effort to combat the Islamic State group, Iraq’s new prime minister said after talks with the French president on Friday. Haider al-Abadi’s remarks came after talks with Francois Hollande, who was in Baghdad to bolster Iraq’s new government as it struggles to unite the nation amid the rampage by the Islamic State group. “In order to confront Daesh, we need aerial support from our allies,” al-Abadi said, referring to the group by its Arabic acronym. “The French president promised me today that France will participate in this effort, hitting the positions of the terrorists in Iraq.” Al-Abadi spoke at a joint press conference with Hollande in Baghdad. Neither of the two leaders provided details about when the French could join the aerial campaign. Hollande has been one of the most militarily aggressive leaders in modern French history, sending troops to Mali and Central African Republic. France was the first European government to start arming Kurdish authorities against Islamic State militants last month. The French government — which vigorously opposed the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq a decade ago — insists any action be at the request of the Iraqi government. France does not want to be a pawn or lapdog in a U.S.-run war, but will play a “significant” role in the coalition and make its own decisions on what to contribute, the French official also said on Thursday. Meanwhile, France is prepared to invite Iran to an international conference Monday aimed at coordinating actions to knock out the Islamic State extremists in Iraq — even though that runs counter to the U.S. refusal to deal with Tehran.

Headline:   Brother of James Foley tells Fox government ‘threatened’ him over ransom bid

The brother of murdered American journalist James Foley said his family was “appalled” by the government’s handling of Foley’s case and accused the Obama administration of threatening him when he tried to raise funds for his brother’s release from ISIS — the terrorist group that beheaded him in an Internet video that shocked the world. “They were actually an impedance,” Michael Foley said of the U.S. government’s role in rescuing his older brother, a photojournalist who was kidnapped by ISIS militants in northern Syria in 2012 and held captive for 21 months before he was executed by the terrorist group. U.S. policy does not allow for government negotiations with terrorist organizations or ransom payments for Americans kidnapped by them. Foley, however, said the administration made it difficult for the family to privately raise funds on its own to secure his brother’s release. “They got in our way,” Foley told Fox News’ Megyn Kelly in an exclusive interview Thursday. “That’s what really bothers me to the core.” “I was specifically threatened by the Department of State about raising funds towards ransom demands for my brother,” he said. “We were smart enough to look past it but it slowed us down. We lost a lot of time.”

Headline:   The ISIS Sleeper Cells Inside America (Special Video Report)

Headline:   Michele Bachmann: FBI Told Me Americans Who Fight with ISIS Will Be Allowed to Return

A former CIA officer said Thursday he has no doubt Islamic State (ISIS) sleeper cells are already planted on U.S. soil. An unnamed U.S. intelligence official told CNN there’s already an indication of ISIS sleeper cells in Europe that could target U.S. embassies and other American interests. But former CIA officer Bob Baer told the network ISIS is already on this side of the Atlantic. “I have been told with no uncertainty there are ISIS sleeper cells in this country,” he said. Though CNN said two U.S. officials had refuted the claim, they’re worried ISIS militants with passports might travel to the United States to launch attacks on American soil, CNN reported. One ISIS fighter already has hinted as much. In several telephone conversations with a Reuters reporter over the past few months, Islamic State fighters suggest their leader, Iraqi Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, is planning something for the West – and that attacks could take place through sleeper cells in both Europe and the United States. “The West are idiots and fools,” one fighter taunted, according to Reuters. “They think we are waiting for them to give us visas to go and attack them or that we will attack with our beards or even Islamic outfits. “They think they can distinguish us these days – they are fools and more than that they don’t know we can play their game in intelligence. They infiltrated us with those who pretend to be Muslims and we have also penetrated them with those who look like them.”

After a lengthy meeting on Wednesday, the leadership of the NCF, a coalition of Sudanese opposition parties, issued the September Declaration, calling for the “elimination of the Khartoum regime” through civil disobedience and a popular uprising, with the purpose of establishing “an alternative democratic and independent Sudan, meeting the aspirations of the people”. “The NCF are not interested in any dialogue that does not aim at dismantling the one-party state that is responsible for the wide-spread abuses against the Sudanese people”, Faroug Abu Eisa, chairman of the NCF told Radio Dabanga. He said that the opposition leaders stressed the importance of unity among the Sudanese opposition during the meeting. “We need to unite all political and civil society elements in the country to cooperate on the solution for the Sudanese crises.” “Therefore”, Abu Eisa stated, “communication with the Sudan Revolutionary Front, as one of the opposition forces, is of utmost significance.”

Tunisian police and Islamists protesting against the arrest of a militant have clashed in the southern town of Douz, the Interior Ministry said Friday. “(This week) we arrested an Islamist under a search warrant. The case is unrelated to terrorism, but is a matter of common law,” ministry spokesman Mohammad Ali Aroui said. Clashes first broke out after the man was detained overnight between Wednesday and Thursday and continued overnight Thursday Friday, Aroui said. “Around 50 Islamist demonstrators” clashed with police in Douz on the edge of the Sahara desert, he said. Protesters used burning tires to block roads and threw stones at police who replied with tear gas, the private radio station Mosaique FM reported. “Police and national guardsmen are at the scene, and have the situation under control,” Aroui said, adding that there had been 26 arrests and three members of the security forces were lightly injured.

Headline:  Security concerns push Algerian defence budget beyond $10 billion

Algeria boasts the largest defence budget in Africa. Over the past decade (2004-2013) its military spending has more than doubled, with an increase of 176 percent, taking total annual spending to $10.4 billion. This makes Algeria the first African nation to tip its defence budget beyond the $10 billion mark. The Algerian government is spending its billions on a broad upgrade of the country’s defence capabilities. Recent purchases and interest have included unmanned drones and self-propelled artillery from China, an amphibious vessel “Kalaat Bani-Abbes” built in Italy, armoured vehicles from Germany to be assembled in a newly-established plant in Algeria, and a range of substantial purchases from Russia, including helicopters and submarines. With a decade of bloody civil war behind it, the concern is that new defence spending indicates an even greater security challenge for Algeria over the coming years. And with Africa’s biggest spender wedged between multiple conflict zones, complex geopolitics could well force Algeria to take a more central role in policing the region.

Headline:  49 reasons why Turkey doesn’t want to fight the Islamic State

On Friday, Secretary of State John Kerry headed to Ankara, Turkey, to meet with President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and discuss possible cooperation to fight the Islamic State. So far, 10 states in the Middle East have declared a “shared commitment” to President  Obama’s plan to tackle the extremist group. However, despite being a key NATO ally and possessing a strong military, Turkey has refrained from embracing the plan, and reports suggest that it will not allow its air bases to be used for air strikes against Islamic State militants in Iraq and Syria. While U.S. officials are said to expect some kind of cooperation, there’s one big factor that helps explain Ankara’s hesitation: The lives of 49 Turkish citizens. In June, Islamic State raided the Turkish consulate in the Iraqi city of Mosul and took 49 people hostage. The safety of these hostages, still held by Islamic State, is of clear concern for Ankara, and the Turkish government is not only weary of provoking the Islamic State but also the families of those being held. Erdoğan has largely kept quiet about the status of negotiations, grimly telling Al Jazeera last month that his hope is for a solution “that would not cause sorrow.” As one unnamed Turkish official told the AFP this week, “Our hands and arms are tied because of the hostages.” Turkey’s entanglement with the Islamic State goes deeper than the hostages, however. Turkey shares a long border with Syria, and some towns in southern Turkey ended up becoming staging grounds for Islamist rebel fighters, including the Islamic State, in the early days of the Syrian war. Ankara tolerated their presence, apparently believing that anything bad for Bashar al-Assad’s Syrian regime was good for Turkey. They were wrong.

Officials say they received word that members of a militia are threatening to block ports of entry. In Starr County, international bridge authorities met with Customs and Border Protection officials Thursday. Their goal was to discuss the potential problem and find a plan of action. Starr County has international bridges in Rio Grande City, Roma and Falcon Dam. Officials received word that members of a militia plan to protest illegal crossings by blocking traffic on Sept. 20. Rio Grande City Mayor Ruben Villarreal said members of the group have a right to express their opinion. His is concerned about the group’s intent, though. “What can we expect? I don’t know. The unknown becomes an issue that we really got to prepare for,” Villarreal said. “I’m a 100 percent sure that with the National Guard, with DPS, with Border Patrol and local law enforcement, we’ll communicate and we’ll handle whatever comes,” he said. “The level of communication that exists doesn’t get talked about enough. It’s an extraordinary amount of communication,” Villarreal said. Villarreal said he is worried about safety. “If they’re here to block traffic, to be a hindrance between traffic and the port of entry, that causes a problem. It’s a huge safety issue,” Villarreal said.

Headline: U.S. threatened massive fine to force Yahoo to release data

The U.S. government threatened to fine Yahoo $250,000 a day in 2008 if it failed to comply with a broad demand to hand over user communications — a request the company believed was unconstitutional — according to court documents unsealed Thursday that illuminate how federal officials forced American tech companies to participate in the National Security Agency’s controversial PRISM program. The documents, roughly 1,500 pages worth, outline a secret and ultimately unsuccessful legal battle by Yahoo to resist the government’s demands. The company’s loss required Yahoo to become one of the first to begin providing information to PRISM, a program that gave the NSA extensive access to records of online com­munications by users of Yahoo and other U.S.-based technology firms. The ruling by the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court of Review became a key moment in the development of PRISM, helping government officials to convince other Silicon Valley companies that unprecedented data demands had been tested in the courts and found constitutionally sound. Eventually, most major U.S. tech companies, including Google, Facebook, Apple and AOL, complied. Microsoft had joined earlier, before the ruling, NSA documents have shown.

Nigerian government forces were fighting Islamist insurgents 35 km (20 miles) outside Borno state capital Maiduguri on Friday to try to stop any attack on the northeastern city, local residents said. Authorities were struggling to reassure frightened locals that the armed forces would defend them against the Boko Haram militants, who have overrun a string of towns and villages in the area in recent weeks. Maiduguri residents said they heard gunfire and explosions coming from the direction of Konduga, southeast of the city, on Friday, and later saw army troop carriers heading there. “Some people came from Konduga … they told us the army are in control,” Musa Sumail, a human rights activist in Maiduguri, told Reuters by phone. Other residents said they were told the army had intercepted an attempted probe into Konduga by a group of Boko Haram fighters. No details of casualties were available. Sumail said military helicopters were flying over the Borno state capital, which has filled up with tens of thousands of refugees fleeing Boko Haram forces advancing from the north, east and south of Maiduguri in the last few weeks. Thousands more have fled Maiduguri westwards towards Damaturu for safety.

The pound, already suffering its worst month in more than a year, has the potential to tumble 10 percent should the Scots vote for independence from the U.K., according to economists surveyed by Bloomberg. A victory by Scottish First Minister Alex Salmond’s “yes” campaign would mean a 5 percent to 10 percent slide versus the dollar within a month, said 61 percent of the 31 respondents polled by Bloomberg Sept. 5-11. Sterling is already down 5.5 percent from a five-year high in July, and touched its lowest level in 10 months this week as momentum for the separatists increased. Meanwhile, Britain’s international partners are aghast, mostly in silence,  at the possibility one of the leading Western powers could break up and turn in on itself if Scotland votes for independence from London. Many fear such a split would foreshadow a British exit from the European Union, on which Prime Minister David Cameron has promised a referendum in 2017, weakening the world’s sixth largest economy and its continental partners.

The exhibit is entitled “Historical Truths and Lies.” Earlier in the year the Chinese government designed and produced an official map of its own.

Headline:   Experts worry Ebola could mutate to spread by air

The unprecedented spread of the Ebola virus in West Africa may be pushing the world toward a viral disaster, a commentary published in Friday’s New York Times suggests. The article reveals that experts are worried ongoing transmission of the virus through people runs the risk of giving rise to mutations that might allow Ebola to spread through the air, like some of the world’s most contagious viruses. The virus currently spreads when a person has contact with contaminated bodily fluids. The article bears the headline: What We’re Afraid to Say About Ebola. It was written by Michael Osterholm of the University of Minnesota’s Center for Infectious Diseases Research and Policy. It is among the first signs that experts who have been watching the outbreak with mounting alarm are ready to go public with grave concerns about an Ebola outbreak that is unlike any the world has ever seen. Viruses like Ebola mutate constantly. And each time an animal virus such as Ebola infects a person, it has the chance to develop mutations that make it better adapted to spreading among people. No one knows what cycling Ebola viruses through so many people would mean in terms of the virus’s evolution. But scientists who study Ebola — one of the deadliest viruses to afflict humankind — would prefer not to watch the experiment in action. Osterholm suggested each infection gives the mutating virus “trillions of throws of the genetic dice.” “The current Ebola virus’s hyper-evolution is unprecedented; there has been more human-to-human transmission in the past four months than most likely occurred in the last 500 to 1,000 years,” he said in his Times commentary.

Headline:   Catholic Cardinal McCarrick Embraces Islam

Headline:   Catholic Cardinal Praises Islam at event Organized by Group Headed by Muslim Brotherhood Infiltrator

Catholic Cardinal Theodore McCarrick offered Islamic religious phrases and insisted that Islam shares foundational rules with Christianity, during a Sept. 10 press conference in D.C. “In the name of God, the Merciful and Compassionate,” McCarrick said as he introduced himself to the audience at a meeting arranged by the Muslim Public Affairs Council. That praise of the Islamic deity is an important phrase in Islam, is found more than 100 times in the Koran, and is akin to the Catholic prayer, ”In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.” McCarrick next claimed that “Catholic social teaching is based on the dignity of the human person… [and] as you study the holy Koran, as you study Islam, basically, this is what Muhammad the prophet, peace be upon him, has been teaching.” McCarrick was 71 when 19 Muslims brought Islam to the public eye by murdering 3,000 Americans on 9/11. He is one of the 213 Cardinals of the Catholic church, but is too old to vote in church debates. “Either the cardinal has studied the whole thing and does not know what he’s talking about, or he is making a somewhat misleading statement,” said Michael Meunier, head of the U.S. Copts Association. “The practice of the Muslim majority people that adhere to the Koran… have proven that [claim of equivalence] is not correct,” he told The Daily Caller during a Sept. 11 trip to Jordan. “Has Cardinal McCarrick converted to Islam?” asked a scornful critic, Robert Spencer, the best-selling author of many books on Islam. “‘Peace be upon him’ is a phrase Muslims utter after they say the name of [their reputed] prophet… [so] probably he is unaware of the unintended Islamic confession of faith he has just made,”said Spencer, who runs the Jihadwatch.org website. McCarrick is wrong to say “that Islam teaches the dignity of every human person,“ Spencer said. “Actually it teaches a sharp dichotomy between the Muslims, [who are called] ‘the best of people’ and the unbelievers [are called] ‘the most vile of created beings,’” Spencer told TheDC. “The Koran also says: ‘Muhammad is the apostle of Allah. Those who follow him are merciful to one another, harsh to the unbelievers,’” Spencer said. The same warning came from Archbishop Amel Nona, who was head of Chaldean Catholic Archeparch of Mosul in Iraq. In a August comment made to Europeans, he said that “You think all men are equal, but that is not true: Islam does not say that all men are equal  [and] your values are not their values.” “If you do not understand this soon enough, you will become the victims of the [immigrant] enemy you have welcomed in your home,” said Nona, who is now exiled — along with surviving Chaldean Catholics — in the Kurdish city of Erbil.

Headline:   Satanists Sell Out Controversial Oklahoma ‘Black Mass’ Event, Will Stage Exorcism Despite Christian Protests

The Satanist group that will stage a controversial “black mass” at an Oklahoma City civic center has said that all 88 tickets for its Sept. 21 event are sold out. The co-founder of the group revealed that the ritual will go ahead despite strong Christian protests and will feature a satanic exorcism, but will be “toned down” to comply with state health laws. “One of the dictates of the church is not only to educate the members but to educate the public, and to debunk the Hollywood-projected image of our beliefs,” Dakhma of Angra Mainyu’s Adam Daniels told ABC News. He added that the group will comply with state health laws and substitute vinegar for actions involving urine as part of the satanic ceremony. Daniels said that the ceremony will also feature Dakhma of Angra Mainyu deacons and priest who will stomp, spit on and use explicit language on an unconsecrated host, a wafer presented as a form of the resurrected Jesus Christ. A satanic exorcism intended to draw the Holy Spirit from a follower’s body will wrap up the event, an inversion of Roman Catholic exorcism believed to expel the devil from a person. “Our practices have gotten it to about 22 to 25 minutes,” the co-founder said of the length of the ritual. Oklahoma Gov. Mary Fallin, Catholic Archbishop Paul Coakley, and over 80,000 people who have signed an online petition have all condemned the upcoming event. Fallin called the black mass a “disgusting mockery of the Catholic faith,” saying that it should be “equally repellent to Catholics and non-Catholics alike.” “It may be protected by the First Amendment, but that doesn’t mean we can’t condemn it in the strongest terms possible for the moral outrage which it is. It is shocking and disgusting that a group of New York City ‘satanists’ would travel all the way to Oklahoma to peddle their filth here. I pray they realize how hurtful their actions are and cancel this event,” she said.

Headline:   Football team forced to remove Christian crosses from helmets

Football players at Arkansas State University were ordered to either remove a Christian cross decal from their helmets or modify it into a mathematical sign after a Jonesboro attorney complained that the image violated the U.S. Constitution. The cross decal was meant to memorialize former player Markel Owens and former equipment manager Barry Weyer, said athletic director Terry Mohajir.  Weyer was killed in a June car crash. Owens was gunned down in Tennessee in January. However, the athletic director said he had no choice but to remove the crosses after he received a message from the university’s legal counsel. “That is a clear violation of the Establishment Clause as a state endorsement of the Christian religion,” Nisenbaum wrote. “Please advise whether you agree and whether ASU will continue this practice.” Ironically, the university’s legal counsel admitted in a letter that there were no specific court cases that addressed crosses on football helmets. Nevertheless, she feared the possibility of a lawsuit. “It is my opinion that we will not prevail on that challenge and must remove the crosses from the helmets or alter the symbols so that they are a (plus sign) instead of a cross,” she wrote in an email to the athletic director.

Headline:   Christian Churches and Schools Forced to Close in Nigeria Due to Muslim Slaughter of 350 Christians in One Week

Leaders of northeastern Nigeria’s Church of the Brethren in Nigeria (EYN) said Boko Haram attacks that have killed more than 300 Christians in the past week have forced the temporary closure of Kulp Bible College and many churches. In an emergency prayer message sent Saturday night (Sept. 6) to Morning Star News among others, EYN President Samuel Dali said the headquarters of the church is under grave threat from the Islamic extremist insurgents who seek to impose sharia (Islamic law) throughout the country. “Boko Haram violence has been getting worse every day, and our members are fleeing the area by the thousands,” he said. “Recent attacks in Borno and Adamawa states where are our churches are located have seen Boko Haram take over the Army base. As a result, about 350 Christians have been killed.” Following a recent online video declaration by Boko Haram leader Abubakar Shekau that Boko Haram was establishing an Islamic caliphate in Borno state’s Damboa and Gwoza towns and Yobe state’s Buni Yadi, including their surrounding villages, Boko Haram has killed more Christians and burned down more churches, Dali said.

Obama in the clouds on ISIS

Why would Barack Obama want to give hundreds of millions of dollars of weapons to groups inside Syria that are selling weapons to ISIS and regularly fighting alongside them?  Is he really that clueless about what is going on in the Middle East?  Obama’s strategy to “defeat ISIS” makes absolutely no sense at all. He has the audacity to stand up in front of the American people and “explain” to us why we need to spend hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars to arm groups that are clearly aligned with ISIS.

First of all, if you want to defeat someone you don’t give weapons to their friends.

-The FSA and other groups of “moderate” fighters inside Syria do not consider ISIS to be an enemy.  Rather, they consider ISIS to be an important ally in the struggle to overthrow the Syrian government.  In fact, many “moderate” units have actually joined ISIS in recent months.  If Obama gives more weapons to the “moderate” fighters in Syria, it is inevitable that a lot of them will end up in the hands of ISIS. 

Secondly, if you want to conduct air strikes against ISIS, you have got to get permission from the nation where you will be conducting those air strikes.

Netanyahu: Israel fully supports Obama against ISIS

Less than 24 hours after US President Barack Obama laid out his strategy for the new chapter in the war on terror, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that “Israel fully supports Obama’s call for a united action against ISIS.” Netanyahu asked the crowd to imagine “would have happened if on 9/11 al-Qaeda had nuclear weapons? You know they would have used them against New York and Washington.” Israel has not been asked to be a part of this coalition – just like it was not asked to be part of the American coalition in 1991, when the US beat Iraq’s Saddam Hussein back from Kuwait, which he attempted to occupy.

To everyone who comes to my site, I need your help! See message below.

Hi, Frank
You mentioned  at the end of your videos.That you would pray for some one if they would E-mail.
I lost my job with the City of Eugene on the 9th. I wasn’t able to sleep so I decided to E-mail. My wife has had a job in salem for some time, so she had to move closer to work to drive that distance was killing her back. So she moved last month. The plan was I would get a job in salem working for the city, then move up a little later. But I wasn’t able to make it up and get a job with the city before I lost my Job here in Eugene. Any way  not ramble on. I would like to request prayer for a job. I know god doesn’t want families to be split apart.And I would like to move to Salem with my Wife and daughter.

Thanks frank.

Would you all please pray for Larry S. that the Lord open the door for more work for him.

Headline: UN confirms 45 Fiji peacekeepers freed by Syrian rebels

The United Nations on Thursday confirmed the release of all 45 Fijian peacekeepers who had been held for two weeks by Al-Qaida-linked militants in the Golan Heights on the Israeli-Syrian border. “Today at 1430 hours local time, the 45 Fijian peacekeepers who had been detained were handed to UNDOF at Position 80,” the UN press office said in a statement. “All the 45 peacekeepers are in good condition and will proceed back to Camp Foar for medical assessment.” An Israel Defense Forces spokeswoman also said the Fijian peacekeepers had crossed into Israeli territory. The Fijians were kidnapped last month by the Nusra Front, an group battling the Syrian army, after the militants overran a crossing point in the so-called disengagement zone that the UN peacekeeping mission known as UNDOF has monitored since 1974. The cease-fire line was agreed after a 1973 Arab-Israeli war.

Headline: Dept. Defense Minister: Hamas Likely to Restart Hostilities

Headline: Israeli authorities shut down ‘Hamas-linked’ Islamist organization in Nazareth

Israel’s deputy foreign minister warned Thursday that Hamas was likely to resume “violence” if it feels it has made no political gains from upcoming talks in Cairo. The remarks came just two weeks after Israel and the Islamist terrorist group that dominates Gaza agreed a truce to end a 50-day war that killed more than 2,200 people and caused enormous destruction in the coastal territory. “There are chances that Hamas will restart its routine of violence, this is a possibility we can’t ignore,” Tzahi Hanegbi told Army Radio. “The resumption of fighting would not happen in the short term, since Hamas will wait for negotiations in Cairo, as well as the October Gaza donors’ conference. “But when Hamas understand that the war has not brought them the smallest political success, they could resume fighting.” Indirect talks between Hamas and Israel are to take place mid-September in Cairo, Palestinian officials say.

Headline: PA won’t deploy forces in Gaza unless Israel presents peace plan

The Palestinian Authority has no intention to deploy forces in the Gaza Strip if there is not also a clear diplomatic end-game peace initiative between Jerusalem and Ramallah on the horizon, a senior Palestinian source said Wednesday. But the source also said the US had threatened the PA with sanctions if it takes unilateral moves toward joining international organizations. There have recently been several conversations between Israeli and Palestinian officials with the hopes of restarting talks, the source said, but in all of them it was apparent that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu does not have in mind a new diplomatic plan or a map of a future Palestinian state. In a speech on August 20, Netanyahu spoke of a “new diplomatic horizon” in the wake of the Israel-Hamas conflict and expressed hope that Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas would take part. Abbas has increasingly voiced a demand that Israel produce a map showing just where it believe the borders of a Palestinian state should be, as a starting point for further negotiations. “Israel needs to sit with us and write a diplomatic plan that links Gaza and the West Bank, that forms a diplomatic horizon and a peace agreement,” the Palestinian source told The Times of Israel. “The PA doesn’t aim to send forces to the Gaza Strip or to deploy them there as a buffer force between Israel and Hamas without such a plan. We would reach a situation in which Hamas and Israel will alternately attack us. The PA has no intention to take a role in Gaza, or to police Gaza, without a diplomatic horizon.” The source also stressed that in the PA there has been a firm decision to not get involved in Gaza without a clear agreement from Hamas that all the weapons that are currently in the Gaza Strip become “one weapon under one authority” — that is, that Hamas concede authority to Abbas’s PA. He also warned that if there is no diplomatic breakthrough soon, within the next six to twelve months, security cooperation between Israel and the PA in the West Bank would stop.

Headline: Exclusive: Hamas threatened UNRWA personnel at gun-point during Gaza war

The Jerusalem Post obtained new information from informed sources this week that Hamas used violence and threats against UN personnel in Gaza during Operation Protective Edge. It was discovered that during the operation Hamas was hiding weapons in facilities run by the UN aid agency UNRWA and firing rockets from nearby proximity to UNRWA schools. The Post has now learned that UNRWA workers were subject to Hamas threats at gun-point during the operation. In a number of incidents, Hamas terrorists threatened to kill UNRWA personnel if they revealed that the Islamist group was using the UN facilities for purposes of war to ensure that they would not speak out about Hamas’s activities. Details have also emerged of the fate of medical supplies and food that were intended to be distributed by UNRWA to residents of Gaza in need of humanitarian aid. On a number of occasions, armed Hamas operatives forcefully confiscated the supplies, taking them for their own use.  In a few cases, both during and after the Gaza war, trucks carrying supplies to UNRWA facilities were intercepted and taken over by Hamas terrorists. With Cairo hosting a donors conference on the rehabilitation of the Gaza Strip in the coming months, the new revelations add to the question of whether such reconstruction aid can be provided without it falling into the hands of Hamas. The UN itself has acknowledged the problem. During the war, UNRWA officially condemned the placing of weapons in its installations, and called it “a flagrant violation of the inviolability of its premises under international law.” UNRWA Spokesperson Christopher Gunness denied the newly-reported details, saying “I have checked and double checked with sources in Gaza and there is no evidence of death threats made to UNRWA personnel. There is no evidence that any UNRWA aid was stolen. Our aid delivery is secure and we have shown it to be so time and time again over many years. Moreover, we have demonstrated this repeatedly to the satisfaction of the Israeli military authorities and major donor such as the US. Everything is checked under strict procedures from the point of origin to the point of delivery. There were two occasions after the fighting in 2008-9 when food aid was stolen.

Headline: Jordanian Parliamentarians: Cancel Gas Agreement with Israel

Some 40 Jordanian parliamentarians have demanded that the Jordanian government prevent the national electricity company from signing an agreement to import gas from Israel, the Jordanian-based Ammon News website reported on Wednesday. In a memorandum submitted by MP Khamis Attia during a session yesterday, the group said: “We the undersigned deputies call on the government to prevent the national electricity company from signing an agreement to import gas from the State of Israel.” “We deplore any agreement to import gas from Israel. The government or the national electricity company must not sign any agreement with Israel which would contribute to the occupation,” added the MPs. The MPs considered “the solution to Jordan’s energy problem is to use alternative energy through partnerships with other Arab states and not with Israel,” according to Ammon News. The move comes a week after the U.S.-based giant Noble Energy announced that Israel is to supply Jordan with natural gas from its vast Leviathan offshore gas field over a period of 15 years. A source close to the deal said it was worth $15 billion (11.4 billion euros) – a significant chunk of some $60 billion which Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu has said will come from Israel’s offshore gas exports.

Headline:   Four Hezbollah fighters killed near Lebanese border village

At least four Hezbollah fighters were killed overnight Wednesday during clashes with jihadists on the outskirts of a Lebanese border village in the Bekaa Valley, security sources told The Daily Star Thursday. Fierce clashes erupted between Hezbollah fighters and rebel groups a few kilometers away from the village of Ras Baalbek, near a Hezbollah position in the region. A total of 17 people were either killed or wounded but only four men were identified as Lebanese resistance fighters, the source said. The incident would have remained under wraps if the two ambulances did not breakdown on their way to a Bekaa hospital, a source, speaking on condition of anonymity, said.

Headline:  Army defuses 100 kilo bomb in Lebanon border town

Lebanese Army soldiers defused a car rigged with 100 kilograms of explosives Thursday on the outskirts of the Bekaa Valley border town of Arsal. In a statement, the military said that soldiers grew suspicious of a white Kia with a Syrian license plate parked on the side of the road in the Ain Shaab neighborhood in Arsal. The military cordoned off the area and discovered that the vehicle contained 100 kilograms of explosives packed in a metal box, and connected to wires and a detonator. Earlier, Hezbollah’s Al-Manar TV had said the car was discovered near an Army checkpoint on the main road leading to Arsal, not far from a gas station with explosives hidden in its metal sheets. The Army launched an investigation into the incident after a military expert defused the bomb.

Headline: MP: Saudi Arabia should not deliver aid to Lebanese Army

Saudi Arabia should not deliver the $4 billion of pledged aid to Lebanon because it would be used in Hezbollah and Iran’s projects that target the country’s Sunnis and Christians, north Lebanon MP Khaled Daher said Thursday. “I call on king of Saudi Arabia to abstain from paying any sum from the $4 billion,” Daher said during a news conference at his Tripoli residence. Saudi Arabia has pledged $3 billion to purchase French military equipment and arms for Lebanon’s Army, while also donating $1 billion to strengthen security. “These billions will be spent on an Army whose decisions are not in the hands of the government,” Daher said. “Instead the [Army] is being used as a tool against Arabs and against the Sunnis and Christians.” The MP warns that Army Intelligence is marginalizing the Sunni community in the north – especially in Tripoli. “I announce my distrust of Lebanese Army Intelligence and its leadership, who have never defended us,” he said. According to Daher, Army Intelligence is cooperating with Hezbollah, which explains the disparity between the pressure on northerners and the lack of attention on Hezbollah’s regions and militias.

Syria Headline:    Syrian air raids kill 11 in extremist-held town

Syrian government airstrikes, including one on a crowded sheep market, killed at least 11 people on Thursday in a northern town controlled by the Islamic State group, activists said. After largely ignoring the rise of the al-Qaida splinter group over the past year, President Bashar Assad’s air force has begun to target Islamic State militants more regularly since the extremist faction seized control of much of northern Syria and a large part of neighboring Iraq in June. Two activist groups, the Aleppo Media Center and the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, said Thursday’s air raids struck the town of al-Bab in Aleppo province. The Britain-based Observatory said at least 11 people were killed and more than 17 wounded. The AMC put the death toll at 19 and said another 20 people were wounded.

Syria Headline:   Iraq Tribal Chief Says Arms to Militia are Being Sold in Syria

A prominent tribal chief in Iraq’s Anbar province claimed that weapons supplied to a Sunni militia to fight Islamic State militants are instead being sold off in Syria. Qasim al-Karwali, leader of the Tribes Revolution, accused Ahmad Aburish, head of the Awakening Council, of the illegal arms sales to opposition and government forces Syria.  Aburish denied the accusations. The Iraqi government and US army created the Sunni Awakening Council in 2006 to drive out al-Qaeda forces from Anbar, Iraq’s largest province. Since then Baghdad has maintained some level of ties with Aburish’s council, arming and funding them to win their allegiance against radical Sunni groups. Aburish denied the accusations, calling them “an attempt to stop our arms supplies to fight the armed groups.” “Armed groups, especially the IS try to distort public opinion against the Awakening Council by saying that we are selling our weapons to Syria,” Aburish told Rudaw. “These are baseless accusations.” In recent years, Anbar’s Sunni population have accused leaders of the Awakening Council of collaboration with Iraq’s Shiite government at the expense of local grievances. The accusations made by al-Karwali on Tuesday come at a time when the US and other NATO countries have pledged support to Iraqi groups who fight the Islamic State.

Islamic State jihadists kidnapped Thursday 20 people in a northern Iraqi village suspected of forming a local group to fight them, a security official and witnesses said. The kidnappings were carried out in Kirkuk province by dozens of fighters from IS, which led a major offensive that overran large areas of Iraq in June. Militants abducted 50 people from a second village in Kirkuk province last week after residents burned one of their positions and their flag, but released them several days later.

Headline:   Islamic State jihadists planning encryption-protected ‘cyber caliphate’ so they can carry out hacking attacks on West

Islamic State militants are planning the creation of a ‘cyber caliphate’ protected by their own encryption software – from behind which they will launch massive hacking attacks on the U.S. and the West. Both Islamic State and Al Qaeda claim to be actively recruiting skilled hackers in a bid to create a team of jihadist computer experts capable of causing devastating cyber disruptions to Western institutions. They are now boasting it is only a matter of time before their plan becomes a reality. Steve Stalinsky, an executive director of the Middle East Media Research Institute, told Fox News: ‘They are forward thinking and are experimenting with hacking. In the future, the jihadists’ cyber army’s activities will become a daily reality.’ It was reported the possible targets of the jihadists’ cyber attacks will be the websites of U.S. government organisations, energy companies, transport systems and banks. Islamic State is noted for its use of advanced technology and social media on a scale unprecedented for such rebel groups. Large numbers of Islamic State fighters are young, highly educated Westerners who are fighting the holy war with sophisticated backgrounds and training with digital technology.

Headline:   ISIS Utilizing British Mosques for Recruitment and Planning Future Attacks

Networks of radicals are re-emerging in British mosques and elsewhere to encourage and facilitate Muslims wanting to travel to Syria and Iraq to fight for Islamic State (Isis). Until now most fighters from Britain who are known to have travelled to Syria have been persuaded and helped via online networks where extremists provide advice on crossing the Turkish order and linking up with Isis fighters. But a combination of a Turkish border clampdown and a focus by counter-terrorist police on taking down online networks has led to recruitment on the ground becoming more important, sources say. Communities of radicals recruiting young Brits are thought to include preachers, battle-hardened returning fighters and jihad sympathizers. Examples of on the ground recruitment have been seen in Cardiff and Birmingham – amid wider evidence that the UK is being specifically targeted by those with links to Isis in Europe.

John McCain (R., Ariz.) in response to a question about “recent reports on Twitter and Facebook of messages that would urge infiltration into the U.S. across our southwestern border.” “Certainly any infiltration across our border would be a threat,” Taylor said, explaining that border security agents are working to tighten measures that would prevent this from taking place.

Headline: Russia stokes tensions with the west by cutting gas exports to Poland

A decision by Russia to cut gas exports to Poland without warning has rekindled fears about Europe‘s reliance on Siberian gas at a time of increasing tension between Moscow and the west. The Polish state energy group, PGNiG, said it was trying to find out why volumes had been slashed by up to 24% when it had been exporting gas itself to Ukraine to make up for Russian shortfalls there. Its counterpart in Kiev, Ukrtransgaz, accused Kremlin-controlled Gazprom of penalising Poland and undermining onward gas supplies to Kiev. “Today Russia started limiting gas supplies to Poland in order to disrupt the reverse (flows) from Poland that we receive … Poland stopped reverse supplies to Ukraine in the range of 4m cubic metres,” said Ihor Prokopiv, chief executive of Ukrtransgaz, according to the Russian news agency, RIA. Mutual suspicions are higher than at any point since the collapse of the Soviet Union, following the conflict in Ukraine and western accusations that Russia has augmented the rebellion in the east with its own troops. Moscow denies the claim.

Russia will counter military moves by the U.S. and NATO with an array of new nuclear and conventional weapons, President Vladimir Putin said Wednesday as the military successfully test-fired an intercontinental ballistic missile from a nuclear submarine. At the same time, he emphasized that Russia will not enter a new arms race and will tightly control its military budget to avoid overburdening the economy. Putin accused the West of using the crisis in Ukraine to reinvigorate NATO, warning that Moscow will ponder a response to the alliance’s decision to create a rapid-reaction “spearhead” force to protect Eastern Europe. The statement appeared to signal that the Russian leader is determined to pursue a tough course in the face of more Western sanctions over the Ukraine crisis that has sent Russia-West relations plummeting to their lowest point since the Cold War.

Headline:  Official: Report of missing planes from Libya untrue

A report that 11 planes were stolen or missing days after Libya’s Tripoli International Airport was overtaken by Islamist militias is unfounded, a State Department official told Washington lawmakers Wednesday while defending U.S. policy in the war-torn country. “We have had the opportunity to examine that issue, and I can say categorically it is without foundation,” said Gerald Feierstein, deputy assistant secretary of State for Near Eastern Affairs, before the House Foreign Affairs Committee. The report first appeared in the conservative website Washington Free Beacon, which cited an unnamed U.S. official. It alleged that intelligence agencies had warned that Islamist militias working in concert with al-Qaeda affiliates could use the airliners to launch attacks on U.S. allies in North Africa or Europe. And the attacks would be timed to the 9/11 anniversary. Feierstein dismissed the report as untrue during the hearing on the chaos gripping Libya. He said the U.S. has a long-term strategy to implement a political resolution for the oil-rich country. Warring militias currently control Libya’s major cities, and the elected parliament has fled the capital of Tripoli and is operating out of a car ferry docked in the eastern town of Tobruk.

Escalation of West-Russia relations poses a real threat to Armenia which depends on its giant northern neighbor politically and economically. West’s sanctions against Russian would fire back. Russia changed its state of the market, attracting new investors. Tension is on therise and no one can predict the possible results. This has put the Caucasus country in a great panic. Armenia made its final decision to join the Eurasian Economic Union and quite obviously the economic difficulties facing Russia will affect the Armenian economy as well. MP from the Republican Party of Armenia, Co-Chairman of the Commission for Armenia-EU Cooperation, is sure that the growing tension in Russia-West relations is bad for Armenia. Samvel Farmanyan referred to the current political turbulences in the Middle East and Ukraine as sign of the new cold war. And Armenia will have to experience tough conditions due to its undecided position between Russia and Europe. Farmanyan added that Armenia has always suffered from the escalation of ties between Russia and the West, as each time, the small Caucasus state felt itself at the junction of conflicting interests of the world’s superpowers. “In this context, I urge the political forces to stop dividing the Armenian society into pro-Russian and pro-Western groups,” he stressed.

Headline: Arrests as Ferguson protesters plan shutdown

A planned highway shutdown fell through Wednesday as a wall of officers in riot gear kept people who planned to protest the Ferguson police shooting from walking onto Interstate 70 during the late afternoon commute. State troopers and St. Louis city and county officers warned the roughly 150 demonstrators who gathered in a nearby suburb to stay out of the road as they protested last month’s shooting of Michael Brown, a black, unarmed 18-year-old, by a white officer. There were nearly as many officers as demonstrators. Organizers said the protest in Berkeley was designed as an act of nonviolent civil disobedience similar to a 1999 demonstration in the same location. During that protest, hundreds of people shut down the interstate in a dispute over minority hiring for road construction projects. Highway Patrol Sgt. Al Nothum said that 35 people were arrested, most on charges of unlawful assembly. Nothum said protesters threw rocks, concrete blocks, bricks and bottles, leading to four charges of assault on a law enforcement officer. A smaller group later went to the nearby Ferguson police station before a heavy, late afternoon thunderstorm dispersed most of the protesters.

Nigeria’s militant Islamists have “completely surrounded” Maiduguri, the main city in north-eastern Borno state, traditional elders have warned. The military needed to “fortify” the city, which had a population of more than two million, to prevent an assault “from all directions”, they said. The Boko Haram militants had “annexed” areas that were about 50km (30 miles) from Maiduguri, they said. Boko Haram declared a caliphate in areas it controls last month. The government has not yet commented on the statement issued by the Borno Elders Forum (BEF).

Headline: Yemen fears al-Qaida attacks amid deadly protests

Yemeni officials said Thursday that security forces have gone on high alert, fearing that al-Qaida members are streaming into the capital, where a Shiite rebel group’s demonstrations have turned deadly. The reports of al-Qaida infiltration came as the government sought international mediation in reaching a peaceful resolution to its conflict with the Shiite rebel group known as the Hawthis, which clashed with police in the capital Sanaa earlier this week. Officials fear that Sunni extremists will exploit the state of unrest in Sanaa and attempt to seize government institutions. The country’s top intelligence officials convened Thursday to discuss information about possible al-Qaida attacks, security officials said. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak to the media.

Headline: Spain’s Catalans protest to demand secession vote

Separatists in northeastern Spain swarmed Barcelona by the tens of thousands Thursday, waving independence flags as they demanded an independence referendum that the Spanish government insists would be illegal. Many sported yellow-and-red shirts with the phrase “Now is the time” and shouted “Independencia!” in Catalan as they crowded two avenues that look like a “V” from the air and positioned themselves there to signifying their desire to vote, getting a boost from Scotland’s upcoming independence vote. Television images showed masses of at least tens of thousands of people participating as the protest got underway. Organizers said 500,000 people had registered, but Catalonia’s regional government said it would not provide a crowd count until the event finished. Catalonia regional leader Artur Mas said his government is not wavering from plans to hold a Nov. 9 referendum in the region of 7.6 million people, even though experts say any attempt is sure to be blocked by Spain’s Constitutional Court. Mas has repeatedly said he will not call an illegal vote.

Headline: 2 Philippine Soldiers Killed in Clashes with Rebels

The Philippine military says two soldiers and an undetermined number of fighters from a Muslim rebel group were killed during a gunbattle Thursday. Officials say the fighting began when rebels from the Bangsamoro Islamic Freedom Fighters (BIFF) group attacked an army detachment in the southern province of North Cotabato. The fighting comes a day after President Benigno Aquino asked lawmakers to pass a deal that would create an autonomous Muslim region. The proposed self-governing region is part of a historic peace accord agreed to earlier this year by the government and the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF).

Heavy rain has hit the Island of Hokkaido in northern Japan, forcing officials to order the evacuation of nearly one million people living near rivers. On Thursday, the torrential rain flooded roads across the prefecture, causing all transport to come to a standstill and grounding flights. According to Satoshi Ebihara, an official in Japan’s Meteorological Agency, at least 100 millimeters of rain per hour poured overnight in some parts of Hokkaido. He said at a news conference that unstable weather is anticipated to continue throughout Thursday due to low pressure systems. “It is a situation where landslides, flooding, and serious calamities may occur at any time,” Ebihara added, calling on residents in affected areas to follow the local authorities’ instructions for safe evacuation.

Headline: South Dakota sees earliest snowfall since 1888

An early September winter storm in the Black Hills has dumped up to 8 inches of snow in the area, while Rapid City received its earliest snowfall in more than 120 years. Jon Chamberlain, meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Rapid City, said almost 1 inch of snow had fallen in downtown Rapid City by 8:30 a.m. while 2 inches was measured in higher elevations in town. The snowfall in downtown Rapid City is the earliest in the city since 1888, the NWS said. The previous early snowfall mark was seven-tenths of an inch on Sept. 13, 1970. Chamberlain said while it is unusual for Rapid City to see snowfall this early, it isn’t for the Black Hills. “It’s a little on the high side, though,” he said. Downtown Custer reported 8 inches of snow, while 7 inches was reported at Mount Rushmore. Other snowfall totals: 6 inches five miles south of Hill City; 4,5 inches in HIll City and 4 inches in Sundance, Wyo.

Headline: Al Qaeda Captures Syrian Town on Border with Israel

The Nusra Front, Al Qaeda’s official branch in Syria, released footage on Tuesday showing the capture of the town of Naba Al-Sakhr in Quneitra, along the border with Israel. It comes as rebel groups, including the Nusra Front, continue to make gains against regime positions along the border, in fierce clashes which have spilled over into Israel territory with increasing frequency. Although until now the fire into Israel has been inadvertent spillover, there is concern that some Islamist rebel groups, like the Nusra Front – which frequently talk of “liberating Al Quds (Jerusalem)” – could use such positions to launch attacks on Israel in the future.

Headline: Terrorist Prisoners to Start Hunger Strike

Palestinian Arab terrorists announced they are starting a hunger strike in response to the suicide of an Arab terrorist jailed in Israel. Palestinian Arab terrorists who are serving time in Israeli jails announced on Tuesday night that they will start a hunger strike on Wednesday. The mass hunger strike is a response to the death of an Arab terrorist jailed in Israel, who committed suicide by hanging himself at the Eshel prison in Be’er Sheva. The terrorist, 35-year-old Raed Abdel Salam al-Jaabari, was arrested near the Kfar Etzion Junction in Judea after a car accident in which he attempted to run over several Jewish residents. Al-Jaabari was arrested during Operation Brother’s Keeper, which the IDF launched following the kidnap and murder of teenagers Eyal Yifrah, Naftali Frenkel and Gilad Sha’ar. Palestinian Authority (PA) officials claimed Israel committed a “war crime” after Al-Jaabari’s suicide. PA Prisoners’ Affairs Union chairman Qadura Fares “cast doubt on the occupation’s claims that the prisoner committed suicide and asked international organizations to investigate his death,” according to a statement from his office. “Israel is responsible for his death,”  PA Minister of Prisoner Affairs Issa Qaraqa claimed to AFP. “The Israelis say he tried to hang himself but it is not true. It is a lie. This is a war crime.”

Headline: Arab Rioter Shot Dead Trying to Kill IDF Soldiers

An Arab rioter was shot dead early Wednesday morning as he took part in clashes attacking IDF troops in Al-Amari north of Ramallah, with Palestinian Authority (PA) sources decrying the incident, even as the IDF reports he was shot while trying to kill soldiers. The rioter, 22-year-old Taysir Qatari according to PA medics cited by AFP, was shot while trying to throw an explosive at IDF forces according to the IDF Spokesperson’s Unit. IDF forces were in the area to conduct an arrest of wanted terrorists. During the ensuing clashes, at least 50 Arab rioters threw molotov cocktails and rocks at the soldiers, and also rolled burning tires at them. An IDF spokesperson said the forces “identified one Palestinian who tried to throw an explosive device at them so in response they opened fire.” She added that he was evacuated for medical treatment but died of his wounds. The target of the operation, a wanted Hamas terrorist named as Allah Jalita, was arrested in the operation. An M1 Carbine semi-automatic rifle was found in his house, along with pipe bombs and dozens of bullets. Overnight arrests also saw the IDF capture another Hamas terrorist in Bethlehem. Aside from the two, four others were arrested for disturbing public order and throwing rocks and IDF forces and civilians. All six arrested were brought in for investigation by security forces.

Headline: UN mulling separate inquiry into Israeli attacks on its Gaza facilities

The top official at the United Nations said the agency was considering an inquiry into the attacks on its facilities and staff during Operation Protective Edge, Israel’s seven-week conflict with Hamas in Gaza. Speaking with the Arabic daily Al-Hayat, U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said that such a probe would aim to “investigate the killing and wounding of U.N. personnel and to hold accountable those responsible, whoever they are.” He told the paper that he had discussed the prospect of the probe with Israeli authorities. The inquiry would be separate from one being conducted by the U.N. Human Rights Council, which is investigating whether Israel committed war crimes in Gaza. The Israeli government has condemned the formation of that panel, saying that Hamas should be the subject of the inquiry. Ban also said the new inquiry would look into the storage of weapons at U.N. facilities. The U.N. Relief and Works Agency said more than once during the conflict that it found rockets stored at schools it runs. “Those responsible are turning schools into potential military targets, and endangering the lives of innocent children,” UN staff and anyone seeking shelter, a late-July statement from Ban’s spokesman said.

Hamas’s exiled deputy leader said Wednesday that indirect talks with Israel to consolidate a Gaza ceasefire are to resume in Cairo in mid-September. Fifty days of deadly fighting between Israel and Gaza militants which killed more than 2,140 Palestinians and 73 on the Israeli side, ended on August 26 with an open-ended truce agreement. Under terms of the deal, the parties agreed to resume Egyptian-brokered negotiations within a month to discuss key issues, including a Hamas demand for a port and an airport, a prisoner swap and Israel’s insistence on Gaza militants disarming. Speaking to reporters in Gaza City during a visit from his base in Cairo, Mussa Abu Marzuq said it was “expected that the talks would resume in mid-September.”

Headline: US-Iran cooperation on IS makes Israel uneasy

Headline: Netanyahu Convenes Security, Legal Chiefs to Strategize Foiling ISIS

Lately, no one in Jerusalem or Tel Aviv has any clue about what to do about regional and global developments. Are they good? Are they bad? Are they both good and bad? A case in point is how the insurgents were taking over the Golan Heights. Israel has yet to decide what’s better: Having the Golan Heights under the control of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad or see his grip waning in favor of sub-state chaos governed by ephemeral insurgent organizations. While we are still weighing this, reports started appearing about Iranian cooperation with the United States in the war against the Islamic State (IS). It began with accounts noting that Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei issued a special fatwa, rendering legitimate the assistance to the United States in its war on the insane Sunni “infidels” from IS. Reports then followed that both countries, which are pitted against each other in a forceful struggle relating to Iran’s nuclear program, were indeed coordinating their positions and collaborating to stop IS. Although these reports were denied, Jerusalem did not completely take those denials at face value. For sure, they are concerned lest this cooperation lead to a rapprochement that is too close for comfort, possibly causing the Americans to be far too lenient in the nuclear negotiations, which Jerusalem considers to be fateful for Israel’s future and national security. On the other hand, Israeli defense officials acknowledge that so far the world powers, led by the United States, have been conducting themselves “surprisingly well” in terms of the nuclear negotiations. “They stand their ground and will not be pushed around,” officials from the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) and the intelligence community are saying. So why would they chicken out now? This discussion could come in tandem with the emerging Israeli position regarding IS. Netanyahu is trying to draw an analogy between IS and Hamas, although so far with only partial success. Indeed, both cases involve extreme Sunni organizations that do not spurn terror. However, Hamas has yet to decide whether to resort to beheading its rivals. So far, it has made do with firing point-blank at the knees of their Fatah comrades and throwing dozens of them to their deaths off the rooftops of high-rises in Gaza during their takeover of the Gaza Strip in 2007. “An Islamic caliphate here in the region would be a strategic disaster,” the officer said. “The biggest fear is of a virulent plague of extremism that will suck in everything in its path. If those people really succeed in establishing a radical Islamic state that terrorizes the region, they might grow rapidly and rally massive support. Before we know it, it could potentially spiral from a negligible tactical event into a strategic catastrophe, which would take generations to overcome. This locomotive,” the officer said, “should be stopped in its tracks and derailed now, before it gathers momentum.” I asked him if the Americans got this. “I think so,” the officer replied. “It took them a couple of days or maybe weeks, but now you see that they’re organizing quickly and that they got the point. The Europeans, too, are starting to grasp the new reality.” He continued, “For now, so it seems; but there’s no full guarantee of that. When it comes to such organizations, airstrikes alone just won’t cut it. Radical Islamic terror in our region was eradicated only when massive force was used and only when the ground was scoured, from village to village and from house to house. This is exactly what we did during Operation Defensive Shield in 2002 to stop the deluge of suicide bombers. And that’s exactly the difference between the Gaza Strip and Judea and Samaria. We are not in the Gaza Strip. All we do is to threaten it with airstrikes, which is why it builds up and becomes increasingly deadlier with each round. By contrast, we are deployed in Judea and Samaria. We take out in real time any terrorist who rears his head. We have active intelligence in place. We know the terrain. And that’s why terror cannot rear its head.” This also has serious repercussions on the peace talks and the future of the diplomatic negotiations. Netanyahu hopes that the world will understand him better now. The world — I believe — doesn’t quite get him yet. Eventually some will understand, even if they learn their lesson the hard way.

Headline: The winter game is Army’s best strategy

Headline: Will IS, Jabhat al-Nusra expand in Lebanon?

With the winter months approaching, the Lebanese Army is expecting Al-Qaeda-linked militants entrenched in Arsal’s outskirts to stage reprisal attacks in an attempt to regain supply routes cut off by heavy military presence. A repeat of the clashes sparked Aug. 2, when Syrian rebels overran the northeast border town, is “inevitable now,” a security source told The Daily Star. Dozens of military men and militants were killed, and at least 29 soldiers and policemen were taken hostage by the two groups. At least 22 remain captive. ISIS militants are believed to be in positions in the northern outskirts of Arsal, from Khirbet Younin to Wadi al-Khayl to Rahwa, Wadi al-Hoqban and Wadi Oueiss, and further east in Atamin and Talaat Moussa, where they overlap with Nusra positions. The latter are predominately based in Wadi al-Zamarani,Wadi Tahout, Khirbet Daoud, and the area around Wadi Martabya and Wadi Mira. Aram Nerguizian, senior fellow at the Center for International and Strategic Studies, said recent fortifications in Arsal only told half the story: “For the last four months, even before the main incidents [in Arsal] the Lebanese Armed Forces have been proactive in building up their presence, not only around the immediate 10-15 kilometers of Arsal, but even further, in Al-Qaa and Ras Baalbek, in anticipation of dealing with recurring incidents, clashes and kidnappings,” he said. “The reason things didn’t really go very well the first time was lack of experience, but the plan holds,” he added. Nerguizian said the main security challenge remained east of Arsal, which remained vulnerable to militant infiltration. Near Al-Qaa lies a heavily defended operating base at Neemat to the east. There is another base north of Amanah and a third east of Ras Baalbek, which makes these areas more difficult to infiltrate. He agreed that despite the Army’s defensive posture, clashes with militants were “100 percent” imminent. “The advantages of being in this no-man’s-land [the outskirts] are there so long as the weather holds,” he said. While the Army has effectively tightened its noose around Arsal, an offensive strategy to root out the rebels from the outskirts is unlikely, said military strategist Elias Farhat. “I don’t think the Army is in a position to carry out an offensive attack in the mountains,” he said. “It’s more within the Army’s capabilities to keep up the blockage so supplies don’t reach the militants, because eventually they will die out or surrender.”

Headline: Beheaded corpse in Egypt bears ISIS-signed note

Headline: Civilian shot dead in North Sinai militant attack

Residents in Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula said on Wednesday they found a beheaded corpse bearing a note signed by an Islamist militant group linked to the Syria and Iraq-based Islamic State, accusing the victim of being an Israeli spy. The beheading is the eighth claimed by the group in Sinai in under a month in a surge of brutal killings seemingly inspired by Islamic State, which has been internationally condemned for its atrocities and has been the target of U.S. air strikes. Residents from a village south of the town of Sheikh Zuweid in northern Sinai told Reuters by phone that the decapitated body bore a note signed by Ansar Bayt al-Maqdis, saying he was an agent for Israeli spy agency Mossad. “This is the fate of all who prove to be traitors to their homeland,” the group said in the note, according to the villagers. A senior Ansar commander told Reuters last week that Islamic State, an al Qaeda offshoot that controls large swathes of Syria and Iraq, had been advising the Sinai-based group on how to operate more effectively.

Syria Headline:   Secret US-Syrian dialogue for coordinating counter-ISIS operations

Syria Headline:  UN’s Ban urges Assad to seek political solution to Syria crisis

Shortly before US President Barack Obama was to unveil his strategy for tackling ISIS in Iraq and Syria on Wednesday, Sept. 10, US and Syrian officers held secret talks for coordinating their military efforts against the common foe, the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant. This is revealed exclusively by debkafile’s military and intelligence sources. The Syrian officers, on the authority of President Bashar Assad, met on the quiet several times with American officers in the capital of one of the Gulf emirates – most probably Muscat in Oman – to prepare the ground for the US and coalition to extend the military campaign against IS into Syria. Tehran was almost certainly in on the dialogue, which brought together US and Syrian officials for the first time in the nearly four years of the Syrian civil war. Our military experts say that the US campaign will be a lot more complicated militarily on the Syrian side of the the Islamic State than parallel operations in Iraq – although IS strongholds in northern and eastern Syria should not be hard to bomb from the air. But it must be taken for granted that the ISIS commander, Abu Bakr Al-Baghdadi, who has proved to be a competent military tactician, will not leave his troops in place to wait for US bombers, but has already moved them to safe hideouts, either in the mountains of northern Syria, the Syrian desert that spreads over into Iraq, or in the dense vegetation on the banks of the Euphrates River, good places from which to conduct protracted guerilla warfare.

Syria Headline:    Syrian rebel group names new leaders after deadly blast

Syria’s Islamist Ahrar al-Sham rebel brigade named new chiefs on Wednesday after a devastating blast that killed nearly 30 members of its leadership in northeastern Idlib province. The blast on Tuesday evening killed the key rebel group’s leader Hassan Abboud, known by the name Abu Abdullah al-Hamawi, along with 27 other top members. The attack targeted a meeting of around 50 military and religious leaders in the basement of a house at Ram Hamdan, northeast of Idlib city. On Wednesday, in a video posted on YouTube, Ahrar al-Sham announced that Hashem al-Sheikh, known as Abu Jaber, would replace Abboud as head of the group, with Abu Saleh Tahhan as military chief. “A group of the best chiefs of Ahrar al-Sham have been martyred. But Ahrar al-Sham is more determined than ever to continue on the path to liberating our country from dictators,” the video statement said.

Syria Headline:    World’s chemical watchdog confirms ‘systematic’ chlorine attacks in Syria

The world’s chemical watchdog on Wednesday confirmed the “systematic” use of chlorine as a weapon in Syria, according to a report by its team investigating alleged attacks there.  The fact-finding mission established “compelling confirmation” that a toxic chemical was used “systematically and repeatedly” as a weapon in villages in northern Syria earlier this year, the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) said in a statement. “The descriptions, physical properties, behaviour of the gas, and signs and symptoms resulting from exposure, as well as the response of patients to the treatment, leads the mission to conclude with a high degree of confidence that chlorine, either pure or in mixture, is the toxic chemical in question.” The OPCW said that reports of chlorine attacks in Syria dropped off after the fact-finding mission was established in April, “but there was a spate of new allegations in August”. Spokesman Michael Luhan said the new claims would be investigated.

Iraq Headline:    Kerry in Iraq backs government, says Baghdad a partner against Islamic State

Cleric Moqtada al-Sadr, head of a powerful Shi’ite movement in Iraq, said on Wednesday during a visit by U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry that Iraq should not cooperate with “occupiers”. “We wish for Iraq to cooperate with the neighboring countries and its allies, but not with the occupiers,” said Sadr, whose opinions hold sway over tens of thousands of militants. His comments highlight the difficulties that Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi faces in his attempts to unify a country that rival militias are threatening to tear apart.

Kurdish Headline:   Kurdistan Minister: ‘The Kurds Had to Go to Baghdad’

The Kurds signed up to the new government in Baghdad this week under great US pressure, confessed Mawlud Bawamurad, the Kurdistan Regional Government’s (KRG) minister for parliamentary affairs. He said the US had made its stepped-up military support in the fight against the Islamic State (IS) conditional on there being a government in Baghdad. In an interview with Rudaw, Bawamurad said that, although the agreement signed in Baghdad is not perfect for the Kurds, it is enough for now: “What is important is that our participation in it is conditional and the witness to our conditions is America.”

Kurdish Headline:   Kurds praise U.S. support, want more against ISIS

Masrour Barzani is the head of Kurdish intelligence service, which is helping pick the targets for U.S. pilots in support of Kurdish forces on the ground. The U.S airstrikes against ISIS are “very useful,” he told CBS News. Kurdish fighters are thankful for U.S. support, but he adds: “but I don’t think it’s enough to defeat ISIS.” “ISIS is still very intact in Syria. ISIS still feels secure in areas like Mosul and Tal Afer,” Barzani said. “We believe the strikes should target the nerve system and the leadership of ISIS wherever they may be.” And by that, he said, he also means Syria, where he would like to see U.S. airstrikes against ISIS. Barzani told CBS News the Kurds are talking to the White House about major support for the Kurdish Military, known as the Peshmerga. “We are asking the United States for they should help the Peshmergas with heavy armament,” Barzani said. “Tanks, helicopters, heavy armaments, MRAPs especially, you know, because they are very important.” MRAPs are armored troops carriers. The Peshmerga CBS News met looked like they could use them. There was evidence of a battle, won. But all the weapons they reloaded were light — no artillery, no effective armor.

Headline: US fears indirect arming of Islamic State

Senate Democratic leaders are preparing legislation to expressly authorize the United States military to train foreign troops for the battle against the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria, a move that will give lawmakers a chance to weigh in on the looming military action before the midterm elections. Although the ground forces being trained would not be American, the trainers would be a “boots on the ground” prospect that might not sit well with members of both parties. No money would be attached to the measure, but a request for around $500 million might come later this fall, Senate Democratic aides said. Senator Harry Reid of Nevada, the majority leader, embraced the proposal on Wednesday, even as he expressed strong opposition to deploying American ground troops.

Headline: MORE Evidence ISIS and ‘Moderate’ FSA Rebels are the Same

House Republicans have rebuffed President Barack Obama’s request for explicit approval to train and equip Syrian rebels battling forces seeking creation of an Islamic State and to spend up to $2 billion stabilizing the situation in Ukraine, Iraq and other hotspots, U.S. officials said Wednesday. Despite the setback, administration officials worked to win the support of reluctant lawmakers in the hours before Obama was delivering a nationally television speech to the nation laying out his strategy for combating militants with Islamic State group. Officials said Obama made two specific requests of lawmakers as they drafted a sweeping spending bill to keep the government open past the end of the Sept. 30 budget year. Neither was included in the bill that the House is scheduled to vote on Thursday, but the situation remained fluid. The White House request asks for “authority to train and equip appropriately vetted elements of the Syrian armed opposition to help defend the Syrian people from attacks by the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) and the Syrian regime” as well as stabilize areas in Syria under rebel control. Obama pressed leaders for the authority in a private meeting Tuesday. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid says Congress should support the authorization.

Headline:   Philippines plans to give Muslims autonomous zone as part of peace proposal

The president of the overwhelmingly Catholic Philippines proposed Wednesday to give Muslims in the south the ability to run their own government under their own flag, part of a peace plan aimed at ending a four-decade rebellion that has killed 150,000 people. The draft law submitted by President Benigno Aquino III to Congress fleshes out a peace deal signed in March by the country’s largest Muslim insurgent group, the 11,000-strong Moro Islamic Liberation Front. The autonomous region in the southern island of Mindanao, to be called Bangsamoro, would get its own 60-member parliament that would wield exclusive power over such areas as agriculture, trade, tourism and education. Under the proposal, Islamic Shariah law would apply to Muslims in the region, but the country’s justice system would continue to apply to non-Muslims. The Moro group has renounced the terrorist acts of extremist groups, including the Islamic State, which seeks to impose a harsh version of Shariah law in areas under its control in Syria and Iraq.

Headline: Ukraine says Russia withdrawing forces from east, sees boost for peace

Headline:  Ukraine promises ‘special status’ for east, but no territorial concessions

Ukraine’s president said on Wednesday Russia had removed the bulk of its forces from his country, raising hopes for a peace drive now underway after five months of conflict in which more than 3,000 people have been killed. Moscow denies sending troops into eastern Ukraine to support pro-Russian rebels battling Ukrainian forces, despite what Kiev and its Western backers say is overwhelming evidence to the contrary. Moscow also denies arming the separatists. President Petro Poroshenko told a televised cabinet meeting Ukraine would remain a sovereign, united country under the terms of a peace roadmap approved last Friday, but said parts of the east under rebel control would get special status. “According to the latest information I have received from our intelligence, 70 percent of Russian troops have been moved back across the border,” Poroshenko said. “This further strengthens our hope that the peace initiatives have good prospects.” However, Poroshenko said the ceasefire was not proving easy to maintain because “terrorists” were constantly trying to provoke Kiev’s forces. Ukraine’s military recorded at least six violations of the ceasefire overnight but said there were no casualties. Five servicemen have been killed during the ceasefire, Ukraine says. A civilian was also killed at the weekend during shelling of the eastern port of Mariupol.

Russian President Vladimir Putin is expected to meet Iranian President Hassan Rouhani while they are in Tajikistan for a security summit on Friday to discuss trade and economic ties, a Kremlin official said. He did not say whether they would touch on an “oil-for-goods deal” which Tehran and Moscow have been discussing as a way to get round Western sanctions imposed on Russia over the Ukraine crisis and on Tehran over its nuclear programme. “Naturally, the main focus will be on strengthening trade and economic ties,” Kremlin foreign policy adviser Yuri Ushakov told reporters in Moscow at a briefing on Wednesday before the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) summit in the Tajik capital, Dushanbe. He said Russia and Iran were concerned about a “certain trade decline”. Kremlin data showed an almost one-third decline in trade turnover to $1.6 billion last year following Western sanctions against the oil-producing Middle Eastern nation. Russia is looking to supply grain worth up to $500 million per year to Iran in exchange for oil, Russia’s state grain trader said, in a further reduction to the value of a long-negotiated barter deal between the two countries.

Headline:   Iran soldier killed in rebel attack on Pakistan border

An Iranian soldier was killed and two pro-government militiamen were wounded in a rebel attack on a border post with Pakistan in southeast Iran, state news agency IRNA reported Wednesday. Commander Ramezan Sharif of the Revolutionary Guards, quoted by IRNA, said a soldier of the elite force was killed and two bassiji Islamist militia volunteers were wounded. He identified the assailants as members of Jaish-ul Adl (Army of Justice), a Sunni extremist group, and said they suffered “heavy losses” in the attack in the Saravan region Tuesday. The survivors fled into Pakistan, the officer said. The same group captured five Iranian soldiers in February, four of whom were released in April. The fate of the other man remains unknown. The border province of Sistan-Baluchistan, which has a large Sunni Muslim community in an otherwise predominantly Shiite country, is the scene of frequent attacks by Sunni extremists and is a major drug smuggling route.

Headline: China Sending 1,800 Peacekeepers to South Sudan

China is sending hundreds of troops to join the U.N. peacekeeping force in war-torn South Sudan, where Chinese companies have major oil interests. Comments from China’s Foreign Ministry on Tuesday followed a report in the Wall Street Journal that said China was deploying troops to protect South Sudanese oil fields and the Chinese workers and installations around them. Responding to reporters’ questions, Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying made no mention of oil or Chinese companies, saying China’s “goal is to strictly follow the mandate of the U.N. Security Council and promote construction of the region.” Hua said China has already deployed 1,800 peacekeepers to South Sudan, while a spokesman for the U.N. mission in the country, Joe Contreras, said Beijing planned to send 700 soldiers, none of whom have arrived. There was no immediate explanation for the discrepancy. The Wall Street Journal says China’s National Petroleum Corporation holds a 40 percent stake in a joint venture that operates South Sudan’s oil fields, and also operates a 1,000-kilometer oil export pipeline that ships crude through neighboring Sudan.

Headline: Islamists in Libya’s Benghazi probably kidnapped 25 missing soldiers: commander

Islamists militants in Libya have probably kidnapped up to 25 soldiers who are missing in the eastern city of Benghazi and killed five others, an army commander said on Wednesday, as the two sides battled over control of the airport. Violent anarchy has taken hold in the port city and in the capital Tripoli, causing the central government to lose its grip on power three weeks ago, three years after an uprising ousted Muammar Gaddafi. Western powers worry Libya will turn into a failed state or head towards another civil war. Tripoli is in the hands of an armed group linked to the western city of Misrata after it expelled a rival group and forced the elected parliament to relocate to a town in the remote east of Libya. In Benghazi, Islamist fighters have been trying to seize Benghazi’s civilian and military airport in recent weeks by approaching the site from several sides, residents say. The army has tried to stop the advance with artillery fire. Five soldiers were killed and seven others wounded when Islamist fighters belonging to a group called Majlis al-Shoura attacked an army checkpoint in Benghazi on Tuesday, Fadhil al-Hasi, a special forces commander, told Reuters.

He added that the US and France have made the same request of “other states near Libya.” The Algerian government has yet to officially respond to the request. The French language Tout Sur l’Algerie website reported that France’s Military Chief of Staff General Pierre de Villiers will visit Algeria on Saturday. On Tuesday, French Defence Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian called on the international community to take decisive action in Libya, which he said was becoming a “hub for terrorist groups”.

His Majesty called for intensified efforts at the regional and international levels to find permanent solutions to the region’s woes in such a way to combat the rising radicalism and terrorist organisations, and achieve a more secure and safe future for the people of the region. On the peace process, the Monarch stressed the importance of re-launching direct peace talks between the Palestinians and the Israelis, after the indefinite ceasefire reached in Gaza, on the basis of the two-state solution, adding that the envisaged outcome must lead to the establishment of an independent Palestinian state within the pre-1967 lines, with East Jerusalem as its capital, the statement said. The King also warned against the prolongation of the Syrian crisis and its consequences on neighbouring countries, including Turkey, Lebanon and Jordan which host the largest numbers of Syrian refugees, highlighting the increasing burdens on the resource-limited Jordan resulting from the refugee crisis. On Iraq, the King voiced Jordan’s full support to all efforts seeking to safeguard the Iraqi unity, describing the formation of Haider Al Abadi’s government as an important step forward towards Iraq’s stability and security, according to the statement.

Headline:  Russia’s Next Land Grab

UKRAINE isn’t the only place where Russia is stirring up trouble. Since the Soviet Union broke up in 1991, Moscow has routinely supported secessionists in bordering states, to coerce those states into accepting its dictates. Its latest such effort is unfolding in the South Caucasus. In recent weeks, Moscow seems to have been aggravating a longstanding conflict between Armenia and Azerbaijan while playing peacemaking overlord to both. In the first week of August, as many as 40 Armenian and Azerbaijani soldiers were reported killed in heavy fighting near their border, just before a summit meeting convened by Russia’s president, Vladimir V. Putin. The South Caucasus may seem remote, but the region borders Russia, Iran and Turkey, and commands a vital pipeline route for oil and natural gas to flow from Central Asia to Europe without passing through Russia. Western officials cannot afford to let another part of the region be digested by Moscow — as they did when Russia separated South Ossetia and Abkhazia from Georgia, just to the north, in a brief war in 2008, and when it seized Crimea from Ukraine this year. Renewed open warfare would give Russia an excuse to send in more troops, under the guise of peacekeeping. Destabilizing the South Caucasus could also derail a huge gas pipeline project, agreed to last December, that might lighten Europe’s dependence on Russian fuel. Armenia controls nearly 20 percent of Azerbaijan’s territory, comprising most of Nagorno-Karabakh and several surrounding regions. Despite a cease-fire agreement since 1994, hostilities occasionally flare, and Russian troops run Armenia’s air defenses. Moscow also controls key elements of Armenia’s economy and infrastructure.

Headline: Catalan leader calls for civil disobedience if Independence vote is vetoed

Asked by Catalunya Radio on Tuesday if his party would support civil disobedience by the Catalan people if the referendum is ultimately deemed unlawful by the central Spanish government, Junqueras replied: “Absolutely! Absolutely! Just like Martin Luther King.” “What’s at stake here for us are fundamental rights,” added Junqueras, who urges Cataluña’s separatists and other left-leaning parties to join his call for civil disobedience. ” We cannot give the Spanish government incentives just because it is not letting us vote; on the contrary, what we need to do is to say that we’re going to vote, and that we will do everything in our power to win.” Junqueras statements come one day after Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy told the parliament that the government “has all necessary measures ready in case anyone tries to hold an illegal referendum.” “We will defend the constitution, the unity of Spain and the law,” he added. Arthur Mas from the Catalan nationalist bloc Convergence and Union (CiU) was the first to introduce the notion of a regional referendum of self-rule, “but internal support has begun to waver as the date approaches and legal concerns arise,” the Spanish newspaper added. The recent comments by separationists come one day before Cataluña Day, a regional celebration that those who want the region to no longer be part of the Spanish kingdom hope to use as a showcase for their aspirations. More than 53 demonstrations are planned to take place in the region on September 11.

Headline: Russia and China Gang Up on U.S. Dollar as Economic Ties Deepen

Russia and China pledged on Tuesday to settle more bilateral trade in ruble and yuan and to enhance cooperation between banks, First Deputy Prime Minister Igor Shuvalov said, as Moscow seeks to cushion the effects of Western economic sanctions. Shuvalov told reporters in Beijing that he had agreed an economic cooperation pact with Chinese Vice Premier Zhang Gaoli that included boosting use of the ruble and yuan for trade transactions. The pact also lets Russian banks set up accounts with Chinese banks, and makes provisions for Russian companies to seek loans from Chinese firms. “We are not going to break old contracts, most of which were denominated in dollars,” Shuvalov said. “But, we’re going to encourage companies from the two countries to settle more in local currencies, to avoid using a currency from a third country.” Spurred on by their often fraught relations with the U.S., Russia and China have long advocated reducing the role of the dollar in international trade. The quest to limit the dollar’s dominance became more urgent for Moscow this year when U.S. and European governments slapped sanctions on Russia to penalize the country for supporting separatist rebels in Ukraine.

Headline: Russia successfully tests nuclear missile, more planned – navy chief

Russia carried out a successful test of its new Bulava intercontinental nuclear missile on Wednesday and will perform two more test launches in October and November, the head of its naval forces said. The armed forces have boosted their military training and test drills since the start of the conflict in eastern Ukraine, which Russia considers in its traditional sphere of influence. The 12-meter long Bulava, or mace, has undergone numerous tests, some successful, and can deliver an impact of up to 100 times the atomic blast that devastated Hiroshima in 1945. Naval Commander-in-Chief Admiral Viktor Chirkov said the test launch had been carried out from the White Sea and that the test missile had hit its target in Russia’s far east. “In October and November of this year, the naval fleet will carry out two more launches with two rocket cruisers equipped with ballistic missiles,” Interfax quoted Chirkov as saying. A Bulava missile weighs 36.8 tonnes and can travel 8,000 km (5,000 miles) and hold 6-10 nuclear warheads.

Headline:   Oxford study predicts 15 more countries are at risk of Ebola exposure

THE World Health Organisation has issued a terrifying warning: Ebola will claim 20,000 lives within the next six months. The virus, which is spiralling out of control in Western Africa, has already claimed 2300 lives, the international health body reports. More than half of that figure have died in the past 21 days alone. Originating in Guinea earlier this year, more than 4200 people have since been sickened in Guinea, Liberia, Sierra Leone, Nigeria and Senegal. “As soon as a new Ebola treatment facility is opened, it immediately fills to overflowing with patients, pointing to a large but previously invisible caseload,” WHO said in a statement. “Many thousands of new cases are expected in Liberia over the coming three weeks.” A Doctors Withour Borders statement was equally blunt, saying the virus was moving “catastrophically through the population much faster than new facilities are being created.”

Headline:   Enterovirus Likely to Spread Through Schools, Experts Say

A respiratory virus is sending hundreds of children to hospitals throughout the Midwest and beyond, health officials say. The unusually high number of hospitalizations reported could be “just the tip of the iceberg in terms of severe cases,” said Mark Pallansch, a virologist and director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Division of Viral Diseases. Twelve states have contacted the CDC for assistance in investigating clusters of enterovirus: Alabama, Colorado, Michigan, Georgia, Ohio, Iowa, Illinois, Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma, Kentucky and Utah. Four — Colorado, Illinois, Missouri and Iowa — have confirmed cases of Enterovirus D68, also known as EV-D68. At a news briefing Monday, the CDC confirmed that samples it tested from children who had been hospitalized in Illinois and in Kansas City, Missouri, did show signs of the EV-D68 virus, meaning there is a possible regional outbreak. The Iowa Department of Public Health confirmed that EV-D68 cases have been identified in Iowa. Officials are hearing of illnesses across the state, they say, though there is not a firm count of how many people have been infected. Dr. Christine Nyquist, medical director of infection control at Children’s Hospital Colorado, said the hospital sent around 25 samples to the CDC from patients with respiratory illness. Around 75% were confirmed to be EV-D68. The hospital has seen a 12% to 15% increase in emergency room visits and admissions this month compared with the same time frame last year, she said.

Headline:   West Nile outbreak hits California’s Orange County

An outbreak of the West Nile virus in California’s Orange County has infected more than 90 people so far this year, seven times as many as were diagnosed in all of 2013, and public health experts say the region’s prolonged drought may be a factor. Not only has the number of human infections reported in the Southern California county since January dwarfed the 12 cases documented for all of 2013, but the prevalence of West Nile in birds, which harbor the virus, and in the mosquitoes transmitting it has also spiked. The 94 confirmed human cases in the county, three of them fatal, represent about half of the 180-plus documented statewide so far this year and nearly a quarter of the 400 cases reported nationally. Local health officials say they face a tough challenge in educating the public about the threat and persuading people to safeguard themselves against insect bites.

Dozens of Christians arrested at a prayer meeting in Saudi Arabia need America’s help, according to a key lawmaker who is pressing the State Department on their behalf. Some 28 people were rounded up Friday by hard-line Islamists from the Commission for the Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice in the home of an Indian national in the eastern Saudi city of Khafji, and their current situation is unknown, according to human rights advocates. “Saudi Arabia is continuing the religious cleansing that has always been its official policy,” Nina Shea, director of the Washington-based Hudson Institute’s Center for Religious Freedom, told FoxNews.com. “It is the only nation state in the world with the official policy of banning all churches. This is enforced even though there are over 2 million Christian foreign workers in that country. Those victimized are typically poor, from Asian and African countries with weak governments.” In Friday’s crackdown, several Bibles were confiscated, according to reports from the Kingdom.

Headline:    The Era Of Widespread Biometric Indentification And Microchip Implants Is Here

Are you ready to have your veins scanned every time you use your bank account?  Are you ready to use a “digital tattoo” or a microchip implant to unlock your telephone?  Once upon a time we read about such technologies in science fiction novels, but now they are here.  The era of widespread biometric identification and microchip implants is upon us, and it is going to change the way that we live. Barclays has just announced that it is going to become the first major bank in the western world to use vein scanning technology to control access to bank accounts.  There will even be a biometric reader that customers plug into their computers at home… Barclays is launching a vein scanner for customers as it steps up use of biometric recognition technology to combat banking fraud. Vein recognition technology is used by some banks in Japan and elsewhere at ATM machines, but Barclays said it is the first bank globally to use it for significant account transactions. Cell phone security is another area of great concern these days.  If someone can get a hold of your phone and unlock it, that person can potentially do all sorts of damage. So Motorola has developed a “digital tattoo” that will be used to ensure that only the owner of a phone is able to unlock it.  The following is how Motorola described these new digital tattoos… Made of super thin, flexible materials, based on VivaLnk’s eSkinTM technology, each digital tattoo is designed to unlock your phone with just a touch of your Moto X to the tattoo, no passwords required. The nickel-sized tattoo is adhesive, lasts for five days, and is made to stay on through showering, swimming, and vigorous activities like jogging. And it’s beautiful—with a shimmering, intricate design. It’s another step in making it easier to unlock your phone on the go and keep your personal information safe. An average user takes 2.3 seconds to unlock their phone and does this about 39 times a day—a process that some people find so inconvenient that they do not lock their phones at all. Using NFC technology, digital tattoos make it faster to safely unlock your phone anywhere without having to enter a password.

Headline: Pakistan Evacuating 700,000 As Flood Wall Breached

Raging monsoon floods sweeping across India and Pakistan have killed more than 440 people, authorities said Tuesday, warning hundreds of thousands more to be prepared to flee their homes as helicopters and boats raced to save marooned victims. Authorities in Pakistan say the floods, which began Sept. 3, are the worst since massive flooding killed 1,700 people in 2010. Pakistan’s minister for water and power, Khwaja Mohammad Asif, warned parliament that some 700,000 people have been told to leave their homes, which could be inundated in the next four days. Pakistani and Indian troops have been using boats and helicopters to drop food supplies for stranded families and evacuate victims. However, the challenge of the situation grows as more than 1.5 million people are now affected as the rushing waters have destroyed the homes of thousands of families. “This is a sad moment for all of us,” Pakistani Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif said, addressing flood victims in the country’s Hafiz district. “These floods came suddenly and no one knew that such a large flood was coming.” The floods have triggered landslides in the divided Kashmir region, split between the two arch rivals, and caused much devastation in northern and eastern Pakistan.

Headline: India warns of al-Qaida terror plots against Israeli tourists during holiday season

Indian intelligence officials have learned that al-Qaida elements and other fanatic groups may be planning to commit terrorist attacks against Israeli and Jewish targets in advance of the anticipated influx of tourists during the upcoming holiday season, according to news reports. India has traditionally been a popular destination for Israeli hikers and backpackers, particularly during the Jewish holiday season. Israelis are known to congregate in the dozens of Chabad-operated community centers in the country, where they celebrate the holidays and observe religious customs. Last week, Indian authorities learned that al-Qaida operatives have established sleeper cells throughout the country. According to reports, intelligence services believe that the organization is planning attacks, with Israeli and Jewish institutions high on the list of at-risk targets.

Headline: Rebels Reportedly Control Syrian Golan, Entering Lebanon

Syrian rebels strengthened their hold of the Syrian side of the Golan Heights on Tuesday morning, conquering the mountain Al-Mal in the Quneitra region where they have recently been capturing control from Syrian President Bashar Assad’s forces. In conquering the strategic point on Tuesday, rebel forces killed roughly ten Syrian soldiers according to Arab news sources cited by Walla!, with some reports assessing that all of Assad’s forces in the area were killed in the clash. The victory gives the rebels full control over the mountain located roughly ten kilometers (just over six miles) from the border with Israel. It also means Syrian rebels have essentially taken control of all of Assad’s bases in the Syrian Golan Heights since starting their conquest  of the region around two weeks ago.

Senior Fatah official Nabil Sha’ath said if Israel does not agree to a West Bank pullout in the next round of talks, the Palestinians would challenge the Jewish state politically, “all over the universe.” One thing on the future agenda, according to Sha’ath, is to urge the international community to handle Israel “as it did apartheid South Africa.” Sha’ath said their dream of statehood was not over and that they would turn to the UN Security Council to take over the peace process.

Headline: Qatar-Funded City to Arise in Israel; More Tunnels, Anyone?

Sometime in the coming days a governmental committee is to convene to decide whether a new Qatari-funded Arab city in the heart of Samaria will be populated. It is currently expected that Israel will remove the last barrier blocking the city – which is already near completely-built – and allow the city to be connected to Israel’s water supply. The “Joint Water Committee for Israel and the Palestinians,” established in the framework of the Oslo Accords, is to vote on the final approval. Both Israel and the PA have veto power over any project brought for approval – and have used it extensively over the past two years: The PA has refused to approve water projects for Jewish communities (except for those within the towns themselves), and Israel has not approved the Rawabi plans. A deal has now been worked out, however, whereby both sides will approve the other’s projects – which means that the city of Rawabi will soon be a “fact on the ground.” However, as the grassroots “Cities of Israel” (Mattot Arim) organization has pointed out, the security implications of a Qatar-funded city in Israel have not been sufficiently taken into account – especially now that the extent of Qatari support for Hamas during the recent war in Gaza is well-known. “How far will the tunnels reach this time?” the organization asks, in a letter to Committee Chairman Infrastructures Minister Silvan Shalom. “Will they reach all the way to Tel Aviv?”

Headline: Lebanese troops advancing by Syrian border

Headline: Saudi Arabia hinders fights against militants on the outskirts of Ersal

A senior military official and state media say that Lebanese troops are advancing near Syria, almost separating a border town from rebel-held areas in nearby fields. The military official and the National News Agency said Tuesday that troops captured a post they lost when Islamic extremists overran the town of Arsal last month, killing and capturing a number of soldiers and police officers. The military official, who spoke on condition of anonymity in line with regulations, said “90 percent” of the area between the town of Arsal and its rebel-held outskirts that stretch to Syria was now held by troops. However, the move does not represent a prelude to an extensive army offensive against the militants occupying the outskirts of Ersal. According to political sources, several obstacles are preventing the army from launching an offence against the militants, most notably “Saudi Arabia’s objection to sealing off the Ersal-Qalamoun region.” According to a March 8 source, the closure of the Ersal-Qalamoun front “will reflect positively on the operations the Syrian army and its allies are carrying out in the Damascus countryside against armed extremist groups, which is something that Saudi Arabia and other countries supporting the Syrian opposition groups will never allow to happen.” It is political and it has to do with Saudi Arabia’s decision back in 2011 to turn Ersal into a transit point for transferring weapons and insurgents from Lebanon to Damascus, and Riyadh’s desire to keep it this way.”

Headline: Hezbollah leader skeptical of US move against Islamic State

The United States isn’t genuinely interested in curbing the danger of Sunni jihadists threatening Lebanon but rather is using public fear of the Islamic State to promote its own interests in the region, a Hezbollah leader said on Tuesday. Naim Qassem, deputy head of Hezbollah, told the Lebanese daily As-Safir that the Islamic State and al-Nusra Front pose “a great danger to Lebanon,” but they can be overcome if confronted by a coordinated effort by Lebanese forces. US Secretary of State John Kerry will arrive in the Middle East on Tuesday to discuss new ways of combating the Islamic State, formerly known as ISIS, which has taken hold of large tracts of land in Syria and Iraq and declared them an Islamic caliphate. Meanwhile, President Barack Obama is expected to deliver a major policy speech on Wednesday outlining his vision for tackling the Islamic State along with US allies in the region. But Qassem was unimpressed by the American action. “The international mobilization led by the United States is not serious in eliminating the Takfiri [Islamist] danger,” Qassem said. “This mobilization strives to create [new] borders… using this danger as a scarecrow in specific areas for political gains.”

Qamishli

On Monday, three missiles targeted the International Airport of Qamishli, in northeastern Syria, were launched from the south countryside of Qamishli city, where militants of the Islamic State (IS/ISIS) are in control, local sources reported. Qamishli airport is held by forces loyal to President Bashar al-Assad, who are in conflict with IS militant fighters south of the city. Speaking to ARA News in Qamishli, civil rights activist Alan Ahmed reported that one of these three missiles landed in the courtyard of the airport without causing any injuries or material damage, while the other two landed near the Agricultural Institute in Helaliya neighbourhood, in the vicinity of the airport. The pro-regime forces (stationed at the International Airport of Qamishli) responded to the attack by shelling the IS-held areas in the towns of Tel Brak, Tel Hamis and the neighbouring villages in the southern countryside of Qamishli (Qamishlo).

Iraq Headline: Iraq’s Shi’ite militia, Kurds use U.S. air strikes to further own agendas

Kurdish and Shi’ite fighters have regained ground, but Sunni Muslims who fled the violence are being prevented from returning home and some have had their houses pillaged and torched. Rather than help keep the nation together, the air strikes risk being used by different factions for their own advantage in Iraq’s sectarian and ethnic conflicts. The fallout also risks worsening grievances that helped Islamic State find support amongst Iraq’s Sunnis, and allows the militant group to portray the U.S. strikes as targeting their minority sect. That may make it more difficult to bring Sunnis on side and convince them to fight the militants. Sunni Arabs are also feeling a backlash in villages where they used to live alongside Kurds, who accuse them of collaborating with Islamic State.

However, the vote for the new cabinet did not include the important positions of minister of defense or minister of interior. These positions will for now rest with PM Abadi, as former Prime Minister Maliki had occupied the positions previously. Hadi al-Ameri, of the Iranian-backed Badr Organization, has been floated as a candidate for both positions, and it is likely that political wrangling over these positions has delayed their appointment. Such an appointment would be alarming to the United States and other Iraqi allies. Iraqi Sunnis are likely to receive the Ministry of Defense, which may help instill confidence in renewed military efforts against ISIS. Much rests on the timely filling of these positions, which PM Abadi has promised this week.

Kurdish Headline: Why the PKK Won’t Leave Mount Sinjar

The Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) has claimed that there is a plan to attack PKK fighters on Mount Sinjar with air strikes. According to a military source, the US does not want the PKK on Mount Sinjar. The PKK claims that this is because it is militarily strategic, as a position for launching long-range missiles. Recently, The People’s Protection Units (YPG), military ally of the PKK on Mount Sinjar, also claimed that there was a plan to shell areas under their control in order to expose it as controlled by Islamic State (IS) insurgents.
In information obtained by BasNews, the PKK’s warning is related to the fact that the US has warned the Kurdistan Regional Government and the PKK itself that the PKK must not stay on Mount Sinjar. Military and political experts believe that this request has been made by the US as long-range rockets could target countries as far away as Israel from the mountain. The experts say that the US does not want control of the mountain to fall into the wrong hands, especially the militant group the KCK [another military ally of PKK]. Under the leadership of Cemil Bayik, the Executive Council Co-chair of the KCK, the group is supported by Iran, making it a threat to US allies, particularly Israel. BasNews sources revealed that the PKK has attempted to use the situation in Sinjar town as way to establish ‘Sinjar Canton’ and place it under their control, in addition to the three cantons of Syrian Kurdistan which are governed by the PYD (a wing of the PKK). This is a major cause for concern for the US, especially after a US military delegation discovered that the PKK demanded Shasho, as commander of the Peshmerga forces on the mountain, to come under their command, an order he rejected out of hand.

Kurdish Headline: Britain sends heavy weapons, ammunition to Kurdish Peshmerga forces

On Tuesday, The British government announced that it will provide large quantities of heavy weapons and ammunition for the Kurdish Peshmerga forces for the purpose of confronting the terrorist gangs of the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria. The British Defense Secretary, Michael Fallon said in a press statement that “the value of those weapons is up to 6.1 million pounds augmented by about half a million pounds, the value of the shipping to Iraq.” Fallon added that “The shipment of weapons and ammunition will reach Iraq on Wednesday,” stressing that “the Kurdish forces suffer from a significant lack of weapons compared to the fighters of the Islamic State.” Fallon indicated that his country is willing to help the Iraqi government and the Kurdish forces to defend themselves and their fellow citizens to stop the advance of ISIS towards other areas, in addition to supporting the international relief efforts to alleviate the suffering of Iraqis who have been targeted by terrorists.

Headline:   ISIS Tweets Call for Assassination of Twitter Employees

An ISIS-related Twitter account has issued the group’s first direct call for attacks on specific American targets, but it’s not going after political or national icons. It wants Twitter employees assassinated. The call for retribution against the online platform was first announced Sunday night in a series of tweets asking “lone wolves” in the U.S. and Europe to make Twitter employees the focus of their attacks. The latest message, if confirmed, would mark a stark escalation. ISIS has, to this point, studiously avoided calling for attacks in America and Israel, preferring to restrict its campaign to territories within Syria and Iraq. It comes at a time when fears are at a fever pitch over the possibility of ISIS attacks in Europe or the United States. A CNN poll released on Monday said that 70 percent of Americans surveyed believed ISIS had the resources to launch an attack on the U.S., with 76 percent of people in favor of additional airstrikes on ISIS targets.

Headline:   Steven Sotloff Was Sold to ISIS by ‘Moderate’ Syrian Rebels

Headline:   White House says beheaded US journalist not ‘sold’ to Islamic State

Murdered journalist Steven Sotloff was kidnapped and sold to the radical Islamic State terrorist group, or ISIS, by one of the “moderate” rebel groups to whom the US government has considered offering support, according to his family’s spokesman. Barak Barfi told CNN that Sotloff – who was Jewish and a joint US-Israeli citizen – was sold for a sum of money in the tens of thousands of dollars at the Syrian border. He said credible “sources on the ground” had provided the dramatic and tragic details of the abduction. “For the first time, we can say Steven was sold at the border,” Barfi said. He described for the first time how Sotloff was set up to be kidnapped, as “activists” spread false rumors that he had participated in the bombing of a hospital – rumors which set him up to be kidnapped by a rebel group, and ultimately executed by IS. “Steven’s name was on a list that he had been responsible for the bombing of a hospital. This was false, activists spread his name around. “Somebody at the border crossing made a phone call to ISIS and they set up a fake checkpoint with many people and Steven and his people that he went in with could not escape,” he said. Barfi noted that the people who actually carried out the kidnapping of Sotloff, a US citizen, were members of some of the very Syrian rebel factions the Obama administration has considered supporting to overthrow the regime of Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad.

Headline:  Boston bombers’ mosque tied to ISIS

Now it can be revealed that another regular worshipper at the Islamic Society mosque was Ahmad Abousamra, who is now the top propagandist for ISIS. Abousamra’s father, a prominent doctor, even sat on the board of directors of the Muslim organization that runs the mosque. He stepped down after the FBI began questioning his son. The FBI suspects Abousamra now operates ISIS’s sophisticated media wing promoting the group’s beheadings and other atrocities through slick videos posted on the Internet. The brutally effective English-language propaganda campaign has helped attract thousands of Western jihadists, including at least 300 Americans. The Islamic Society insists it’s moderate — that these extremists were fed by online forums. But Charles Jacobs, head of Boston’s Americans for Peace and Tolerance, says the mosque has hosted pro-jihad speakers and has stocked its library with classic jihadi texts — including writings by Osama bin Laden mentor Syed Qutb. And Islamic Society leaders have openly defended their worshippers convicted of terrorism — including Siddiqui and Mehanna — despite overwhelming evidence against them. At their hearings and trials, officials have sought their release or lenient sentences. They have also held fundraisers and rallies for the terrorists.

Headline:   US seeks UN resolution on Islamic State ahead of key Obama speech

International action against Islamic State intensified on Tuesday, with the US seeking a UN resolution to tighten up laws on foreign fighters and more European military aid filtering in to help those fighting militants on the ground. The latest anti-IS resolution, proposed by the US, demands that all UN members make it a serious crime to enlist as a foreign fighter in a militant groups such as Islamic State and Nusra Front in Iraq and Syria. The draft, currently being circulated to Security Council members, is expected to be adopted at a special session of the top world body chaired by US President Barack Obama on 24 September. Under the measure, governments would take action against their nationals who travel or make plans to travel to a country “for the purpose of the perpetration, planning, or preparation of, or participation in terrorist acts.” It would also make it illegal to collect funds or help organise the travel of foreign fighters for groups like the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (ISIL), which is on the UN terror list. The text obtained by AFP demands that “all states shall ensure that their domestic laws and regulations establish serious criminal offenses sufficient to provide the ability to prosecute and to penalise in a manner duly reflecting the seriousness of the offense.”

Headline: Russia mulls closing airspace in response to new Western sanctions

Russia does not rule out the possibility that it might close its airspace in response to new Western sanctions over the Ukraine crisis, prime minister Dmitry Medvedev said Monday. “If there are sanctions connected with energy or further restrictions on our financial sector, we will have to strike back in an asymmetric way, such as restrictions in the transport sphere,” Medvedev said in an interview with Vedomosti, a business daily. “We will have to respond to the restrictions imposed on us,” he said. “If Western carriers cannot overfly our airspace, it may lead to the bankruptcy of many airlines that are teetering on the brink of survival.” Medvedev, however, admitted it would be a bad option. “We would just like our partners to realize that.” He stressed that additional sanctions would not help bring peace to Ukraine, but only threaten the global security system. He warned that “sanctions are always double-edged.” Moreover, Medvedev expressed his hope that the Western sanctions can be turned into chances for the domestic industry to develop, adding that Russia may make further adjustments of counter sanctions imposed on Western countries. “We should try to use the situation to bring benefits to the country and our economy,” he said. “We should not harm our citizens; this is the first and most important consideration.”

Ukraine’s Defense Ministry says four servicemen have been killed in clashes with pro-Russian forces since the start of a ceasefire five days ago. Head of Defense Ministry’s Military Medical Department Vitaly Andronatiy told reporters on Tuesday that 29 other Ukrainian soldiers were also injured during the ceasefire. On Friday, the Ukrainian government and pro-Russia forces signed a preliminary ceasefire deal to end nearly five months of fighting in the nation’s east. The ceasefire was signed after two hours of negotiations in the Belarusian capital city of Minsk between former Ukrainian president, Leonid Kuchma, who represented the government in Kiev, and rebel leaders, Igor Plotnitsky and Alexander Zakharchenko. Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko ordered troops to stop all hostilities by 15:00 GMT the same day and instructed the Foreign Ministry to oversee monitoring of the ceasefire along with the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE). Meanwhile, the airport in the eastern city of Donetsk has been reportedly the scene of gunfire and shelling overnight Tuesday.

Headline:   Iran criticises Sudan for closing cultural centres

Predominantly Shiite Muslim Iran criticised Sudan Tuesday for shutting down its cultural centres in the country over alleged Shiite proselytism, saying they had been operating correctly. On September 2, a Sudanese official said the centres had been ordered closed in response to “increased activity… in spreading Shiite Islam,” the majority faith in Iran but a fringe one in overwhelmingly Sunni Sudan. Tehran’s main cultural centre in the Sudanese capital was padlocked on Sunday, an AFP correspondent reported. Iranian foreign ministry spokeswoman Marzieh Afkham said the centre was operating within the law, and blamed the decision to shut it down on “suspect political groups,” which she did not name. Quoted by the ISNA news agency, she said the centre’s “activities respected bilateral accords and Sudanese law”. The closure order was a “provocation by certain suspect political groups in Sudan and extremist groups in the region at a time when Sudan is suffering economic and political difficulties. “We are certain that the Sudanese government would not allow groups that do not value the welfare of Iran and Sudan to tarnish relations between the two countries,” she added.

Defense Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian was quoted as stating on Tuesday during an interview with the newspaper Le Figaro that France “must act in Libya and mobilize the international community.” In addition to urging action by  European defense ministers meeting in Milan, Le Drian called for a push by the United Nations Security Council for military action against Islamists who have taken over the country. He said France may move troops in neighboring countries to the Libyan border. Since the NATO invasion and assassination of Col. Muammar el-Qaddafi three years ago, rival militias have waged a ceaseless war for control of Libya. On September 1, the Libyan government admitted it had lost control of its ministries after the militias had taken over Tripoli “in another milestone in the disintegration of the state,” according to The New York Times. In August, the militant Islamic group Ansar al-Sharia declared Benghazi an “Islamic Emirate.” Ansar al-Sharia was implicated in the attack on the CIA’s gun-running operation in Benghazi that left ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans dead.

Headline:   Morocco and Algeria build separation fences along their borders

Morocco and Algeria are commemorating the 20th anniversary of closing their common border by building separation walls. The land border between Morocco and Algeria has been closed for “security reasons” since their independence except at certain periods during the late 1980s and early 1990s, when they were briefly opened. On the 20th anniversary of closing their border, the two countries deepened their estrangement. Algeria is said to have deployed troops along the common border with Morocco while the latter built a separation wall under the pretext of fighting drug trafficking and illegal immigration. Algeria reacted to the Moroccan wall by building a similar wall which stretches from the Mediterranean Sea to the south and could reach a hundred kilometres. Morocco holds Algeria responsible for harming the Moroccan territorial integrity by supporting Western Saharan parties who demand independence from Morocco. Meanwhile, Algeria has recently accused Morocco of trying to sow discord in the Ghardaia region between Arabs and Berbers. A French diplomatic source who had previously worked in Rabat told Al-Rai Al-Youm news website that “the Moroccan-Algerian relations are like a chronic disease which is difficult to cure, and once you believe you made a breakthrough, it surprises you again.”

A human tragedy unfolded (in Gaza), it is all too easily forgotten,” added Yildiz. Yildiz’s comments came in response to questions about a proposed lucrative joint project, which would have a 10 billion cubic meter sub-sea pipeline built by 2023, connecting Israel to the European market.

Headline: Chile blames terrorists after bomb blast hurts 14

Chile’s capital on Monday, injuring at least 14 people in the most damaging of nearly 30 bombings or attempted bombings in Santiago this year. While no group claimed responsibility for the blast, many past bombings have been claimed by anarchist groups and Chile’s government said it would invoke the country’s tough anti-terror laws. The explosion took place during lunchtime at a restaurant in a small, underground shopping mall connected to the Escuela Militar subway station in Santiago’s affluent Las Condes neighborhood. Witnesses described a gory and chaotic scene as the blast sent bodies flying, while commuters ran away from the smoke screaming. “We heard the blast and ran in fear. When I turned around I saw the heartbreaking scene: there was glass, dust and twisted metal everywhere,” Silvana Bobadilla, a waitress at one of the nearby restaurants, told local television. President Michelle Bachelet called it an abominable act of terrorism. “That’s why we’re going to use the full force of justice, including invoking the anti-terrorist law,” Bachelet said. The anti-terror law enacted during Chile’s 1973-90 dictatorship lets suspects be held in isolation without charges and permits the use of phone taps and secret witnesses in investigations. At least 14 people were injured in Monday’s attack, according to a list released by local hospitals. The government’s emergency medical service said that among those hurt in the blast was a cleaning woman who lost a finger.

Somali Islamist militants have threatened attacks in east Africa and the United States, warning President Barack Obama he would hear “shocking news” as punishment for a U.S. missile strike that killed the rebel group’s leader last week. Al-Shabab made the threats late Monday, hours after launching twin attacks inside Somalia against African peacekeepers and a government convoy. The death toll from those bombings rose to at least 18 Tuesday, police said. “Let our mujahideen (fighters) wait for good news.

Headline: Brazil Rating Outlook Cut to Negative by Moody’s on Growth

Brazil’s credit rating outlook was cut to negative by Moody’s Investors Service, which said slow economic growth is unlikely to improve in the short term. Moody’s affirmed Brazil’s Baa2 rating, its second-lowest investment grade. The change in outlook comes after data last month showed Latin America’s largest economy entered a recession for the first time in five years, and as President Dilma Rousseff seeks election to a second term in October. Brazil’s benchmark dollar bonds dropped the most since March and the real weakened after the Moody’s report, which came on the heels of a voter poll that showed Rousseff gaining support and in a statistical tie with her main opponent. Brazil’s Ibovespa stock index had posted the best returns among major global gauges since March, when voter surveys first started showing Rousseff losing support for her effort to win another four-year term after overseeing Brazil’s slowest economic growth for any president in two decades. “Given the absence of any signs of a recovery, Moody’s believes that Brazil’s next administration will face depressed economic conditions,” analyst Mauro Leos wrote in the statement today. “Persistently weak growth rates could further erode Brazil’s fiscal position and materially undermine its credit profile.”

Headline: Report: China Moves 12,000 Troops to Russian Border

According to a Russian media report, at least 12,000 heavily armed Chinese troops have been moved to the border with Russia as tensions in the region continue to build. The report cites the Russian FSB Border service as saying that Beijing began dispatching troops to the border on September 6, with 12-15,000 soldiers making the trip backed by heavy artillery. According to a translated quote that the report attributes to a Russian border representative, it is not yet clear why the troops have been concentrated on the border but that “something smells bad.” It remains to be seen whether the reported Chinese troops movements are related to large scale Russian nuclear drills set to take place on the Chinese border later this month. Russia and China have been forging closer links in recent weeks and months, with the two super powers recently signing a $400bn deal for Gazprom to supply gas from Russia to China, the biggest natural gas deal sealed by Moscow since the collapse of the USSR. Work on the construction of the pipeline began last week. Tensions between Russia and NATO flared last week when General Yury Yakubov, a senior Defense Ministry official, said that part of Russia’srevision to its military doctrine would include treating the United States and its NATO allies as an enemy threat against which preemptive nuclear strikes could be launched. Last week NATO also approved a “rapid response force” of 3,500 troops that would be situated at bases in Poland, Romania, and the Baltic states in a move that was widely seen as a further aggressive escalation aimed at Moscow.

A medical plane transporting the fourth American aid worker sickened with the Ebola virus landed in metro Atlanta on Tuesday morning, with the patient headed to Emory University Hospital, where two others have been successfully treated. The plane touched down around 9:20 a.m. at Dobbins Air Reserve Base in Marietta, just northwest of Atlanta. Air Force spokesman Lt. Col. James Wilson confirmed the arrival. The patient will be housed in a special isolation unit, hospital officials said. The patient’s identity was not released, and the hospital released no additional details. But the World Health Organization says a doctor who has been working in an Ebola treatment center in Sierra Leone has tested positive for the disease. It said the doctor was in stable condition Monday in Freetown and was being evacuated. Last month, two U.S. aid workers who contracted Ebola in Liberia, Dr. Kent Brantly and Nancy Writebol, were treated successfully at Emory.

Headline: Hospital sets patient record as virus spreads

Medical officials admitted a record number of children to a local hospital over the weekend because of what they believe to be a rare respiratory virus spreading throughout the country. Although there’s been no confirmed cases of the enterovirus at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center, officials admitted 540 patients Friday, said Dr. Derek Wheeler, associate chief of staff at the hospital. The previous record was around 515, Wheeler said. Some reports out of Missouri and Colorado suggest the virus, with symptoms similar to the common cold, brought sicker patients to hospitals, Wheeler said. “We’re just seeing the (increased) volumes, we haven’t seen (patients) sicker than usual yet,” he said. Hospitals from other states have placed restrictions on visitations, but Wheeler said there are no plans to do that in Cincinnati. The virus is similar to what doctors treat during cold and flu season. That means nothing really changes if a child comes down with the rare virus, he said. “The bottom line is this is a virus you wouldn’t treat with antibiotics, so other than the (high-level of) interest, there’s no reason we would need to know it’s an enterovirus,” Wheeler said.

More than 30 Lynn Community Health Center employees and 800 patients are being tested to determine if they were exposed to tuberculosis after center doctors confirmed a case. Center Director Lori Berry says after confirming the single positive test for tuberculosis in a male health care worker around Labor Day, center medical workers contacted and tested employees as well as patients ‘‘having sufficient exposure to warrant testing.’’ City Health Director MaryAnn O’Connor tells The Daily Item the identified case at the center is ‘‘not a reason to panic’’ and said people should not stay away from clinic. The Center for Disease Control’s website describes tuberculosis as bacteria ‘‘that usually attack the lungs’’ but can attack other parts of the body, and if not treated properly can be fatal.

Headline: The Plan to Bring the Caliphate into Jerusalem

When the world says Hamas is not ISIS and ISIS is not Al-Qaeda and Turkey is not the Muslim Brotherhood and the Muslim Brotherhood hates ISIS and ISIS hates Hamas, it’s wise to reply with: but all these have the same goal; Jerusalem and to establish the grand Caliphate. The Muslim world is bickering against ISIS and its not because they behead but its because whom they behead. While they fight and bicker, they fight and bicker because the Jew is not the one being beheaded and is the ONLY reason why Hamas is favored while ISIS is not. It reminds us of the joke when Yasser Arafat ran into Usama bin Laden who was having a tough day since everyone was looking to kill him and he asked Arafat as to why he gets to go anywhere on the open when both were terrorists doing the same thing, in which Arafat answered: you fool I am only killing Jews.

Stray gunfire from Syria wounded an Israeli soldier in the Golan Heights on Monday, the army said. “An IDF (Israel Defense Forces) soldier was injured by errant fire from internal fighting in Syria. He was evacuated to hospital,” an army statement said, without elaborating. The soldier was reportedly from the Armored Corps., which is currently stationed along the Israeli-Syrian border. The incident came as Syrian troops and Islamist terrorists fought for control of areas near the Quneitra crossing, which Israel closed after Al-Qaeda-linked groups took it over last month.

Headline: Arab states back new UN appeal by Palestinians

Arab foreign ministers have backed Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas’s appeal to the United Nations to set a deadline for Israel to end its occupation of lands captured in the 1967 war and make way for an independent Palestinian state. The Palestinian ambassador to Egypt, Jamal al-Shobaki, said Monday that the Arab resolution issued a day earlier calls for the Arab League chief to push the idea in the U.N. Security Council and other regional and international groups. Al-Shobaki said the foreign ministers are discussing the draft resolution. Abbas floated the idea last month at the height of Israel’s 50-day war in Gaza as a way to refocus international attention on Palestinians demands for a state after failed efforts to reach a negotiated peace deal with Israel.

Headline: After Gaza War, Palestinian Infighting Flares

Headline: Mashaal Trying to Cool Tensions with Abbas

The war with Israel may be over, but now the fight is turning inward with bitter rivalry between Fatah and Hamas threatening to shatter a fragile Palestinian unity deal. In the latest spat between the factions, Palestinian Authority head Mahmoud Abbas accused Hamas of running a “shadow government” in Gaza, prompting the Islamist movement to accuse him of trying to “destroy” the unity agreement they signed in April. The deal ended seven years of rival Palestinian administrations – with Abbas’s Fatah party which dominates the Palestinian Authority, ruling areas of Judea-Samaria under its control, and Hamas’s own government ruling Gaza. Under the deal, the two sides agreed on the formation of a national consensus government of technocrats which took office on June 2. But after just over a month in office, everything was put on hold as Israel and Hamas fought a deadly 50-day war in and around Gaza. Throughout the conflict, Hamas and Fatah put up a united front, working side-by-side in indirect truce talks with Israel in Cairo, which resulted in an open-ended ceasefire that took effect on August 26. But any illusion of harmony has quickly evaporated. “Hamas has taken us back to square one, to the days of division,” a Fatah official based in Gaza told AFP, speaking on condition of anonymity.

Headline: Leaders of South Say Renewed Tunnel Digging Means War

Headline: Will the Gaza truce be shorter than the Gaza war? Hamas said rebuilding tunnels and restocking

Leaders and residents of the south expressed frustration at the government, after a senior diplomatic source revealed assessments on Sunday showing that despite the ceasefire Hamas has restarted construction of rockets and terror tunnels to attack Israeli civilians in the region. “Continued tunnel digging towards our communities is a cause for war,” Hof Ashkelon Regional Council head Yair Farjoun told Yedioth Aharonoth, calling on the government to take decisive action against the threat on his constituents. “We weren’t surprised. We knew they didn’t do the job. What, we don’t know Hamas? Even the children know what’s happening,” remarked Daniel Matari of Kerem Shalom. “We are preparing for the worst and staying vigilant. …We rely on the army, not so much on the government.” Meanwhile, Day by day, the prospect recedes of the Israel-Hamas Cairo negotiations actually taking place on schedule, one month after Aug. 26, the date the last Gaza ceasefire went into force.  And even if they do, it will only be a pointless formality achieving nothing. The discussions, actions, disclosures and statements filling the air at present all point to the violence resuming on the Jewish New Year festival later this month. Clearly aware of the dates, Hamas’ Gaza leader Ismail Haniyeh warned in a sermon Friday, Sept. 6, that rocket fire would start up against Israel on Sept. 25, the first day of the festival, unless the blockade of the Gaza Strip was lifted by then.

Headline:Arab Rioters Attempt to Blow Up Jerusalem Gas Station

Headline: Arabs Riot in Jerusalem after Teen Dies

During the course of intense Arab rioting in Jerusalem on Sunday, Jerusalem Councilman Aryeh King reports that a massive explosion was miraculously averted in the north-eastern neighborhood of French Hill. King arrived at a gas station in the Jewish-majority neighborhood on Sunday night, and reports that dozens of Arab rioters attempted to ignite the fuel reserves in what potentially could have caused a huge blast. “Muslim terror is raising its head in French Hill,” King told Arutz Sheva on Monday. “A huge disaster was averted yesterday towards midnight, when no fewer than 40 Arab terrorists broke in to the French Hill gas station and tried to set off the fuel stores.” If they had been successful massive damage would have been inflicted on the adjacent homes, notes King, who just last Friday was dismissed by Jerusalem Mayor Nir Barkat from his position in the municipal coalition, after he petitioned against building plans for Arab residents that he argued threatened the demographic balance of the capital. Speaking about the rioting, King noted “the Jerusalem police of course were not on the scene, despite earlier information on expected disturbances and despite the (gas) station being at the front line to the adjacent (Arab) neighborhood of Isawiya, from which dozens of Muslim rioters have emerged in recent months.” The Arab rioters threw rocks and molotov cocktails at the gas station, destroying the store located there. They damaged the fuel pumps and security cameras, stealing oil from the station and spilling it on the road leading to Isawiya before fleeing the scene. Firefighting crews managed to put out the fires the rioters lit in their attempt to blow up the gas station, and the oil on the road was covered with sand to prevent cars sliding out of control and crashing.

Headline: Istanbul Store Bans Entry to ‘Jew Dogs’

Headline: New Jersey Yeshiva Defaced with Swastikas

The virulent anti-Semitism that has reared its head with particular animosity in Turkey during Operation Protective Edge shows no sign of abating, as a centrally located store in the country’s capital of Istanbul recently refused to do business with “Jew dogs.” A picture of the cell phone store in Istanbul’s Fatih district was sent to the Turkish Jewish news site Şalom last week, and shows a sign hung in front of the store forbidding entrance for “Jew dogs,” reports Walla!. The sign included a picture of religious Jews in white kippot, evidently “settlers” from Judea and Samaria, dancing in front of an IDF tank. The store is located in a commercial district called Tahtakale, where many Jewish-owned stores are run. The Jewish community expressed its outrage over the offensive sign. “If a sign like this was hung against any other population aside from Jews, the world would be expressing shock and the sign would be removed immediately,” local Jews said in a statement. “But when it’s Jews, no one opens their mouths, and this could bring serious results.” The blatant anti-Semitism comes as violent protests in July during Operation Protective Edge reached the point where Israel pulled its diplomatic staff from the country, after embassies in Istanbul and Ankara were attacked.

Fierce clashes erupted between the Lebanese Army and militants in Wadi al-Rayaan and on the outskirts of Arsal Monday, while three rockets fired from the area fell across the Bekaa Valley. Citizens residing in northern Bekaa reported hearing rocket and gunfire from the neighboring outskirts. Two rockets fired from the outskirts of Arsal also hit the Bekaa valley Monday, without incurring any casualties, a source told The Daily Star. The source said that the rockets fell in agricultural farmlands in the village of Nabi Othman in the Bekaa Valley. Mortar shells also fell in the Amhaziyye village, north of the Bekaa, without causing any damage. Moments later, a third rocket fell in the village of Hor Taala in the Bekaa Valley.

Headline: Hezbollah prepares to fight IS in Lebanon

The Lebanese government is in touch with Hezbollah to ease tensions after the beheading of a second Lebanese soldier at the hands of ISIS, the interior minister said. “We are in open communication with the leadership of Hezbollah, and in all directions, to rein in sectarian tension and anger on the streets,” Machnouk told the local daily As-Safir in remarks published Monday. “We emphasized the need to ward off any sectarian strife during talks with Hezbollah,” he stressed, pointing out that discord is “what the kidnappers are after.” Machnouk said contacts with Hezbollah Chief Sayyed Hasan Nasrallah’s aide, Hussein Khalil, and Hezbollah’s top security official Wafiq Safa had “contributed to controlling tensions in streets and facilitated self-restraint.” Dozens took to the streets in outrage after ISIS announced Saturday evening that it had executed a second Lebanese soldier, Abbas Medlej, a Shiite from the eastern city of Baalbek. Meanwhile, Hezbollah is reviving its national arm, known as the Lebanese Resistance Brigades. The brigades were formed in March 1998 to absorb all non-Shiite Hezbollah supporters who wanted to fight Israel. Today, the brigades are taking part in the fight in Syria against extremist groups. Their role will soon be upgraded so they can cover vulnerable areas that might be of interest to Jabhat al-Nusra and IS.

We are not responsible for any Syrian who goes missing after 7 p.m., and we have requested the Hezbollah and Amal Movement leaderships not to intervene,” the statement read. Earlier Monday, residents from the town of Bourj al-Shamali, east of South Lebanon’s Tyre, gave Syrian refugees living in a nearby camp 48 hours to leave their tents, and asked employers of workers living in the camp to provide them with accommodation. Residents from the Hayy As-Sullam neighborhood in southern Beirut’s Dahiyeh also posted notices ordering Syrians to leave the area, and asking Hezbollah and the Amal movement not to interfere. The series of ultimatums comes after the beheading of two Lebanese soldiers by Islamist militants in Syria.

Saudi Arabia has inaugurated a multilayered fence along its northern borders, as part of efforts to secure the kingdom’s vast desert frontiers against infiltrators and smugglers, state media said. King Abdullah announced late Friday the launch of the first stage of a border security programme, covering 900 kilometres (560 miles) of the northern frontier, SPA state news agency reported. SPA did not name Iraq, Saudi Arabia’s neighbour to the north, referring only to the northern frontier, but the two countries’ common border stretches over 800 kilometres (500 miles). The project includes five layers of fencing which will cut the “number of infiltrators, drug, arms and cattle smugglers to zero,” SPA said. It said surveillance would be reinforced by watch towers, night-vision cameras and 50 radars.

Headline: Sisi denies claims he’ll give Sinai land to Palestinians

Egypt’s President Abdel-Fattah El-Sisi on Monday denied reports from Israeli media that Egypt has promised to offer Palestinians land in the Sinai Peninsula. In a speech to mark national teachers’ day and which mostly dealt with education, El-Sisi stressed that no one can make such promises and that there is no room for talk about the matter. Israeli media reported early Monday that El-Sisi had promised Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas that he would give Palestinians land in Sinai. The Palestinian presidency denied the allegations soon after the reports emerged. Abbas arrived in Cairo on Saturday for a three-day visit to discuss actions to end the Israeli occupation of Palestine. Secretary General of the Palestinian presidency, Al-Tayeb Abdel-Rehim, also denied the allegations, according to Palestinian news agency Maan. Rumours have surfaced in the last year that Egypt’s ousted Islamist president Mohamed Morsi had promised Palestinians parts of Sinai as terms of a ceasefire between Hamas and Israel, sparking outrage among many Egyptians.

Syria Headline:    Syrian air strikes on Islamic State positions kill 60 civilians: activists

Syrian government warplanes killed at least 60 civilians including a dozen children in two days of air strikes on Islamic State-held territory at the weekend, activists said on Monday. President Bashar al-Assad’s military has stepped up an aerial campaign over the last three months against Islamic State, an al Qaeda offshoot that controls about a third of Syria’s territory, much of it desert in the north and east. The air strikes have hit a number of Islamic State targets but have also killed many civilians in territory under the group’s control. The death toll included 41 killed during air strikes on Saturday that hit a bakery run by Islamic State in their stronghold of Raqqa city in the north, the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said. Another 19 civilians were killed in the eastern Deir al-Zor province, which borders Iraq and, like Raqqa province, is almost entirely controlled by Islamic State militants.

Syria Headline:    Syrian Rebel Commander: Yes, We’re Still Collaborating with ISIS

A commander with the Free Syrian Army admitted to fighting alongside several terrorist organizations this week in yet another example of the so-called “rebels” true nature. Speaking with Lebanon’s Daily Star, Bassel Idriss, commander of an FSA-run rebel brigade, openly discussed the group’s joint operations with ISIS and the Al-Nusra Front. “We are collaborating with the Islamic State and the Nusra Front by attacking the Syrian Army’s gatherings in … Qalamoun,” Idriss said. “Let’s face it: The Nusra Front is the biggest power present right now in Qalamoun and we as FSA would collaborate on any mission they launch as long as it coincides with our values.” Idriss brushed off recent reports concerning Al-Nusra and ISIS holding as many as 22 Lebanese policemen and soldiers hostage, arguing that his group would fight with anyone opposed to Assad. “Our battle is with the Assad regime, and it is on Syrian lands only,” Idriss said. “It is not with the Lebanese Army.” Idriss also went on to mention the FSA’s dwindling power, saying many of his US-backed fighters continue to “pledge allegiance” to ISIS. “ISIS wanted to enhance its presence in the Western Qalamoun area,” Idriss said. “After the fall of Yabroud and the FSA’s retreat into the hills, many units pledged allegiance to ISIS.” Abu Fidaa, a retired Syrian Army Colonel, also acknowledged the growing power of ISIS in the region. “A very large number of FSA members [in Arsal] have joined ISIS and Nusra,” Fidaa said. “In the end, people want to eat, they want to live, and the Islamic State has everything.”

Iraq Headline:  US launches airstrikes around Iraq’s Haditha Dam

The U.S. military said Sunday it launched airstrikes around Haditha Dam in western Iraq, targeting Islamic State insurgents there for the first time in a move to prevent the group from capturing the vital dam. The strikes represented a broadening of the U.S. campaign against the Islamic State militants, moving the military operations closer to the border of Syria, where the group also has been operating. Speaking in Georgia where he’s meeting with government and defense officials, U.S. Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel said that if the dam were to fall into the militant’s hands “or if that dam would be destroyed, the damage that that would cause would be very significant and it would put a significant additional and big risk into the mix in Iraq” including U.S. interests there. At the same time, however, Hagel rejected the suggestion that the Haditha strikes opened up a new front in the war against the Islamic State group or that it represented an escalation of the U.S. military operations.

Iraq Headline:  Islamic State Launch Gunboat Attack on Riverside Town North of Baghdad

Islamic State fighters attacked a riverside town north of Baghdad on Monday with gunboats and a car bomb, killing 17 people and wounding 54, a security source said. The source said the attack on Dhuluiya, around 70 km (45 miles) from the capital, was carried out before dawn and continued for two hours before the militants were pushed back. Among the dead in the attack, the largest of its kind in the area, were civilians and Iraqi forces. Most of the casualties were caused by the car bomb, which struck a market, the source said.

Iraq Headline:  ISIS is targeting the Euphrates and Tigris river basins in Iraq

According to a detailed analysis in Debka’s subscriber-only newsletter, the Islamic State / of Iraq and Syria (IS or ISIS) is highly contemptuous of the U.S. bombing raids on ISIS, because they pose no real military threat. Instead of targeting main ISIS centers and bases, they target scattered armored vehicles and isolated positions. In fact, U.S. air activity in Iraq is diminishing by stages, while ISIS strengthens its grip on captured locations in Iraq. According to this analysis, while the U.S. is bombing unimportant targets, the ISIS advance will travel along two paths simultaneously, along the Euphrates and Tigris river basins respectively, and link up in Mahmudiya, where the two rivers run in closest proximity. This would give ISIS a dominant military position over the Shiite provinces south of Baghdad and in relation to Saudi Arabia to the south and Jordan and Israel to the west. If successful, this would connect ISIS’s northern Syria and western Iraqi strongholds without having run into a single Iraqi or Kurdish soldier to impede their progress – or being bombed by U.S. warplanes.

Iraq Headline:  Iraqi MPs and military officers are behind power of Islamic State

The Caliph of the Islamic State (IS/ISIS/ISIL), Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, has gained considerable popularity among extremist Muslims around the world, especially with the al-Qaeda offshoot group’s control of large areas in Syria and Iraq. the growing power of IS in northern Iraq was apparently backed by several members of the Iraqi Parliament. Al-Baghdadi’s Caliphate was not a result of chaos, but well-planned by some Iraqi politicians. According to sources in the Iraqi Parliament, at least 24 MPs are involved in supporting the Islamic State’s (IS) militant fighters, both logistically and strategically. Al-Baghdadi is reportedly surrounded by 24 Iraqi middle-aged MPs, who keep IS up to date with the plans of the Iraqi forces, besides providing financial support to the Caliphate. The Iraqi MPs who currently back IS (ISIS/ISIL) have spent time in custody during the American invasion in Iraq. On the other hand, dozens of Sunni military officers, who used to fight in the ranks of the Iraqi army during the rule of Saddam Hussein, have joined IS. Those highly qualified officers are mainly responsible for strategic plans for any military operation by IS militant fighters, according to a dissident member of IS who talked to ARA News on condition of staying anonymous. The dissident IS fighter, who is currently based in Turkey, said that the power of the group stems from the way its militants are organized. “This is no more a militia fighting on the basis of limited sources as guerrilla rebels; every operation is well-organized and planned by highly qualified Iraqi officers,” he told ARA News.

Iraq Headline:  Kurds and US to Discuss New Iraqi Government

***Track back to special post “Kurds in Prophecy?”

http://endtimesresearchministry.com/the-kurds-in-prophecy-special-post-september-6-2014/

PM of Iraq, Haidar Abadi, has decided to resolve the issue of the Kurdistan Region’s budget quickly and pledge complete financial support to Kurdish Peshmerga forces. He has also committed to implementing Article 140 of Iraq’s constitution within a year, which addresses Iraqi disputed territories. Abadi has officially asked the parliament of Iraq to convene on Monday evening, when he will inform it of his plan for the new cabinet of the Iraqi government. His speech, which MPs have already seen a copy of, is expected to take place at 8:00pm. Kurdish MP in Baghdad, Sirwan Sirini, told BasNews, ‘His plan is made up of four parts. Chief among them is an agreement with political parties that establishes a consensus government in which every party is fairly represented in the cabinet.’ Sirini revealed other details about the points in Abadi’s plan, which includes, ‘All parts of Iraq should be freed from Islamic State (IS) radicals as soon as possible.’ In addressing Kurdish disputes, Sirini quoted the speech as stating, ‘It is essential to find suitable solutions for the oil and natural resources disputes with the Kurdistan Region based on Iraqi laws and constitution. These problems must be resolved within six months.’ ‘In order to start solving the budget and oil issues between Erbil and Baghdad, a proportion of the disputed budget should be sent to the Kurdistan Region immediately. In return, the Kurdistan Region must hand over control of its oil to the federal government of Iraq to be exported through Baghdad. This should be done within a month.’ ‘A suitable solution for Kirkuk and all disputed territories must be found using Article 140 of the Iraqi constitution, within a year.’ ‘Peshmerga forces must be assisted in all aspects, including border protection soldiers for the Kurdistan Region and other cities of Iraq. This should be done within three months.’ Sirini said that although these are fine plans, it remains to be seen if they are worth trusting. If fully implemented, Iraq will start to improve and develop in terms of infrastructure and services, whilst Kurds will secure their rights.

“I studied the Koran a great deal … I came away from that study with the conviction that by and large there have been few religions in the world as deadly to men as that of Muhammad”. (Alexis de Tocqueville) President Obama shared another revelation recently, claiming that Islamic State of Iraq and Levant (ISIL) “speaks for no religion” According to Secretary of State John Kerry, ISIL does not represent “the face of Islam”. It is not their personal opinion. Respected professors, journalists, columnists, philosophers from Paris to San Francisco share this view. They really want to believe in it, otherwise the idea that true evil comes from the West only, and the Islamic movement is no more than a form of “national struggle of the oppressed people”, becomes meaningless. Unfortunately, ISIL (or ISIS) is pure, uncomplicated Islam in its most genuine, original form.

Headline:   Russia, U.S. to hold talks on 1987 arms accord

Two Russian strategic bombers conducted practice cruise missile attacks on the United States during a training mission last week that defense officials say appeared timed to the NATO summit in Wales. The Russian Tu-95 Bear bombers were tracked flying a route across the northern Atlantic near Iceland, Greenland, and Canada’s northeast. Analysis of the flight indicated the aircraft were conducting practice runs to a pre-determined “launch box”—an optimum point for firing nuclear-armed cruise missiles at U.S. targets, said defense officials familiar with intelligence reports. Disclosure of the nuclear bombing practice comes as a Russian general last week called for Moscow to change its doctrine to include preemptive nuclear strikes on the United States and NATO.

Headline:   Ukraine President Vows to Defend Key Port

Shelling and other clashes between government forces and Russian-backed separatists threw the cease-fire agreement in eastern Ukraine into deepening peril Sunday, two days after it took hold. At least two houses hit by artillery fire blazed in the rural village of Spartak, which lies just north of the main rebel-held city of Donetsk and adjacent to the airport. A man whose house was struck by a shell said rebels had fired from a spot nearby, and that apparently provoked a retaliatory attack from Ukrainian government troops. A group of rebel fighters in the village danced and drank Sunday morning in celebration after what they said was a successful assault on a Ukrainian military encampment in the area. One said the group had captured eight government troops, though no captives could be seen. The fighter, who gave only the nom de guerre Khokhol, said the truce was not being respected by either side. “There was mortar shelling around 20 minutes ago here in Spartak,” he said. “There is no cease-fire for anyone.” The truce — signed on Friday by Ukraine, Russia and the Kremlin-backed rebels after five months of fighting that killed at least 2,600 civilians and forced hundreds of thousands from their homes — was shattered late Saturday by shelling on the outskirts of the coastal town of Mariupol. The city council said Sunday that one civilian was killed and a serviceman wounded.

Weapons sent by Western countries to forces fighting Islamic militants in Iraq may end up in the hands of Kurdish rebels in Turkey, a fearful Ankara said on Monday. Branded a “terrorist organization” by Turkey and its Western allies, the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) has joined forces with other Kurdish units in the US-backed operation to halt the advance of the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS) militants. “The weapons sent (to Iraq) should not end up in the hands of terrorist organizations. They should not end up in the hands of the PKK,” Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu was quoted as saying by the state-run Anatolia news agency. “We have expressed our concerns” during last week’s NATO summit in Wales, Cavusoglu said. “It may not be possible to control where these weapons will go,” he warned. Turkish Kurds from the PKK have fought against the jihadists in parts of northern Iraq, with assistance from Iraq’s Kurdish peshmerga forces. Ankara has been criticized by some commentators for encouraging the formation of ISIS through its wholehearted support of Islamist elements against President Bashar al-Assad. The arming of forces on the ground, including Iraqi Kurdish fighters in the face of the jihadist onslaught, is likely to be on the agenda during US Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel’s visit to Ankara on Monday, a diplomatic source told AFP.

At least one protester has been killed and dozens wounded when Yemeni police attacked anti-government protesters in the capital, Sana’a. On Sunday, police fired tear gas and live bullets at the Houthis and their supporters who had staged a sit-in near the Interior Ministry, blocking the road to Sana’a international airport. “We hold the authorities responsible for the repercussions of this aggression, and we stress the right of our people to self-defense using all means if the aggression continues,” Houthi spokesman Mohammed Abdulsalam said in a statement. On August 20, thousands of Houthis strengthened their positions in Sana’a in their efforts to press the Yemeni government to step down. Since then, Houthi activists have been holding daily rallies in Sana’a, with tens of thousands taking part. Meanwhile, Tribesmen attacked Yemen’s main oil export pipeline on Monday, halting the flow of crude, officials told Reuters. Yemen’s oil and gas pipelines have been repeatedly sabotaged by tribesmen feuding with the state, especially since mass protests against the government created a power vacuum in 2011, causing fuel shortages and slashing export earnings for the impoverished country. The stability of Yemen is a priority for the United States and its Gulf Arab allies because of its strategic position next to top oil exporter Saudi Arabia and shipping lanes, and because it is home to one of al Qaeda’s most active wings.

The unusual situation now is that there have been so many hospitalizations. The virus is sending 30 children a day to a Kansas City, Missouri, hospital, where about 15% of the youngsters were placed in intensive care, officials said.

Amazingly, in a sprawling city of 1.2 million people, the impact near the international airport did not cause any known injuries, but it did leave a crater measuring 12 meters (39 feet) across and was felt throughout the capital late on Saturday. Nicaraguan authorities believe it was a piece of the small asteroid dubbed “2014 RC,” which passed very close to Earth on Sunday and was estimated by astronomers to be about 20 meters big, or the size of a house. “We are convinced that this was a meteorite. We have seen the crater from the impact,” said Wilfredo Strauss of the Seismic Institute. The meteorite appeared to have hurtled into a wooded area near the airport around midnight and the hit was so large that it registered on the instruments Strauss’s organization uses to size up earthquakes. “You can see two waves: first, a small seismic wave when the meteorite hit earth, and then another stronger one, which is the impact of the sound,” he said.

Headline: Death toll from flooding in India and Pakistan rises

The death toll from monsoon flooding over the weekend in India and Pakistan has risen to 355, officials from both countries reported. According to Pakistan’s National Disaster Management Authority, 205 people have died because of the flooding. In India, the Ministry of Home Affairs recorded 150 deaths. Authorities are attempting to rescue thousands still stranded in what has been described as the worst flooding in sixty years. Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has declared a “national-level disaster” and deployed Army helicopters and boats to conduct rescue operations. The Ministry of Defense said Monday that 20,000 people had been rescued in Jammu and Kashmir state. Modi offered assistance to the Pakistan-administered Kashmir region, telling Pakistani Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif, “Our resources are at your disposal where you need them.”

Headline: Massive Valley flooding strands motorists, closes schools in Phoenix

A massive storm drenched the Valley with record rainfall early Monday morning, turning freeways into lakes and forcing the closure of highways, streets and schools throughout the region. Gov. Jan Brewer ordered non-essential state employees to stay home Monday and she declared a “statewide emergency for areas impacted by today’s severe rainfall and flooding.” Widespread flood warnings were extended until at least 10:30 a.m. and as day broke the flood fears were prompted by almost relentless rainfall, the dangers posed by runoff water if the rain does abate, and a forecast calling for wet weather for another day. More than 2 inches of rain was recorded at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport, a record. Elsewhere, rainfall totals were measured as high as nearly 5 inches. Unlike typical monsoon storms, there were not isolated pockets of heavy rain, but huge and sustained downpours Valley-wide. Channel 12 meteorologist James Quinones said already the region was coping with the biggest flood in 44 years.

The Kurds in Prophecy? Special Post September 6, 2014

I’ve said before that there is no more Syria or Iraq- there is only ISIS. Yet there are still people and governments involved- Assad, the Iraqi government, the Kurds, etc.

kurds

I’ve shown you the possible blueprints of prophecy in ISIS 5 year plan. IF- and please note I am saying IF- it comes to pass, ISIS will encompass every country listed in the Ezekiel War.

ISIS 5 year plan
The whole world wonders what to do about ISIS. On September 3rd, I tackled WHY we can’t help anyone in Syria- not Assad nor the FSA.

http://endtimesresearchministry.com/do-not-be-deceived-god-is-not-mockedprophecy-signs-for-september-3-2014/

So let’s turn our attention to the Kurds…or Kurdistan.

Kurdistan (the Kurds), is an autonomous region that no one in the world wants to acknowledge as a separate country. The ‘president’ of Kurdistan is Barzani and his nephew is the Prime Minister. I’ve shown you maps before of what the Kurds consider to be their country

Kurdistan

kurds

The ‘peshmerga’ are ANY armed Kurdish fighters (I am not including the PKK in this, as they are a designated terrorist organization). The peshmerga are led by the Kurdistan Democratic Party (Kurdish president Barzani), which is the main party of Iraqi Kurdistan.

Many countries have been very hesitant is arming the peshmerga and here’s the bottom line as to why: to do this would acknowledge an independent Kurdistan and all that implies. The Iraqi government, the Syrian government, the Arab League, Turkey, Iran, ad infinitum ALL refuse to acknowledge an independent Kurdistan. To do so would not only ‘carve’ up their countries, it would wreak havoc on their power bases. The ‘official’ governments involved in this nightmare that is ISIS have not asked for international help and have often put conditions on the help that is offered. If the world ‘arms’ the peshmerga, they have basically ignored the countries who do not want an independent Kurdistan, thereby incurring their wrath.

The Kurds have been around for thousands of years. They were ‘spotlighted’ during the Iraq War, after which they were given their “autonomous region”. As always, we must go to God’s Word to seek direction. Does God have a plan for the Kurds? Let’s take a look:

Most everyone is familiar with Revelation 18 “After these things I saw another angel coming down from heaven, having great authority, and the earth was illuminated with his glory.  And he cried mightily with a loud voice, saying, “Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and has become a dwelling place of demons, a prison for every foul spirit, and a cage for every unclean and hated bird!  For all the nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth have become rich through the abundance of her luxury.” This shows us that Babylon will be the epicenter of evil in the last days of history, and will eventually face the judgment of God.

Now let’s look at some Scripture:

Isaiah 13:17 — “Behold, I will stir up the Medes against them, which shall not regard silver; and as for gold, they shall not delight in it.

Isaiah 13:4– “The noise of a multitude in the mountains, like as of a great people; a tumultuous noise of the kingdoms of nations gathered together: the Lord of hosts mustereth the host of the battle.

Jeremiah 50:3For out of the north there cometh up a nation against her, which shall make her land desolate, and none shall dwell therein: they shall remove, they shall depart, both man and beast.

Jeremiah 51:11Make bright the arrows; gather the shields: the Lord hath raised up the spirit of the kings of the Medes: for his device is against Babylon, to destroy it; because it is the vengeance of the Lord, the vengeance of his temple.

Jeremiah 51:28-29 Prepare against her the nations with the kings of the Medes, the captains thereof, and all the rulers thereof, and all the land of his dominion.  And the land shall tremble and sorrow: for every purpose of the Lord shall be performed against Babylon, to make the land of Babylon a desolation without an inhabitant.

Is this to say that Jeremiah 50 and 51 have NOT been fulfilled, but will be fulfilled in these End Times? Not necessarily. The description of the capture of Babylon is mentioned in Jeremiah 50:2, and this capture is predicted to be the act of a nation (50:3a) or nations (50:9) coming from the north.  In the next chapter, Jeremiah goes on to identify the specific identity of this nation, leaving no room for speculation what that nation would be.  Jeremiah 51:28 recognizes the agent of Babylon’s capture to be the Medes.  Historically it did turn out that the Medes invaded Babylon, as the Scripture attests in Daniel 5:31 and collaborated by other historical documents. BUT…

Although Babylon was conquered by the Medes and the Persians (just two nations) in ancient times, it was conquered in such a way it was never destroyed. 

Have the walls of Babylon been destroyed?  When was the city torched and never again to have any residence? History attests that Babylon survived beyond the Medes-Persian era. Not only was Babylon still inhabited during the Persian and Hellenistic period, but its great city walls were still standing according to many sources. Jeremiah 50-51 predicts Babylon’s final destruction will include her city walls taken down, the city itself to be destroyed into a burning heap or mountain of fire, and how she will be abandoned from having any inhabitants forever.  Since the walls of Babylon still stand today, it seems that there will be a future literal Babylon that will one day rise again to have it’s destruction according to Jeremiah be fully fulfilled.

How exactly will these things come to pass? It’s too soon to tell, but what we DO know is that all the things Jesus told us to watch for are happening every day. With no way to battle ISIS, the peshmerga are looking to be the only option. IF the Lord DOES have a plan for the Kurds in the end times, this will happen NO MATTER what the countries of the world say about an independent Kurdistan. There are no easy answers to these problems. But what we as Christians must remember is that all we see if part of God’s plan. He has stated in His Word (Matthew 5:18) For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.”

Headline: Syria jihadists advance against regime forces in Quneitra

Islamist rebels on Friday advanced against Syrian regime troops on the Syrian side of the Golan Heights near the Israeli border, a monitoring group said. Fighters from the al-Qaida-linked Nusra Front and Islamic Brigades seized two hills in the center of Quneitra, which has in recent days been at the center of fighting between rebels and the Syrian government forces, according to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights. The reported advance was made after the Syrian military launched a counter-attack to regain posts seized by Islamist fighters in the volatile region. Syrian forces heavily shelled areas on the outskirts of Quneitra, killing at least 16 Islamist fighters, the Britain-based Observatory said. State TV said government troops had killed an unspecified number of rebels on the edges of Quneitra and destroyed their weapons. The fighting has raged since the Islamist rebels captured the Quneitra border crossing more than a week ago. The Nusra Front has been holding 45 Fijian U.N. peacekeepers since Aug. 28.

Headline: Al-Nusra threatening to put captive Fiji UN troops on trial under Islamic law

The al-Nusra front is threatening to put the 44 captive Fijian UNDOF troops on trial under Islamic Shari’a law if demands are not met, said the head of the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, Rami Abdul Rahman to London paper Asharq al-Awsat. The UN troops were kidnapped on August 28 from the Golan Heights’ UN-patrolled demilitarized zone when terrorists from the al-Qaida-linked group overran a crossing near the abandoned town of Quneitra. Syrian government troops and rebels had already been engaged in fighting in the area for days when the kidnapping happened. Terrorists also captured 72 UN troops from the Philippines around the same time as the Fijians’ kidnapping, though the Filipino troops managed to escape into safety in Israel. Al-Nusra is demanding a series of conditions in order to release the captive UNDOF troops, including the group’s removal from the UN’s list of global terror organizations, and monetary compensation for members killed in fighting, said Brigadier-General Mosese Tikoitoga, head of Fiji’s army.

Headline: Hamas’ Haniyeh: No to Israeli disarmament demand

The head of Hamas’ political wing, Khaled Meshal, has agreed to accept a Palestinian state within the 1967 borders during a recent meeting with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, the Lebanese newspaper Al-Akhbar reported Friday. According to the report, Meshal demanded Hamas be included in all policy decisions in the West Bank and not only in the Gaza Strip. The statements appear in a protocol of the second meeting held between the two Palestinian leaders in Doha, on August 21-22, as published by Al-Akhbar. Unlike the first meeting, during which harsh accusations were exchanged, the second meeting was efficient. According to the protocol, Palestinian intelligence chief Majid Faraj informed the officials at the meeting that the head of Israel’s Shin Bet security service, Yoram Cohen, met with Abbas in Ramallah and claimed that the Palestinian president had crossed the line, and that a harsh Israeli response will follow. Cohen, Faraj said, accused Abbas of defending Hamas and demanded that he dismantle the Palestinian unity government. Abbas replied that the unity government is a Palestinian interest that he intends to defend.

Headline: Fatah Calls on World to Cancel IDF Dual Citizenship

A senior leader of Palestinian Authority (PA) Chairman Mahmoud Abbas’s Fatah faction has launched a new international campaign against Israel, calling on nations of the world to cancel the citizenship for IDF soldiers after Operation Protective Edge. The Fatah leader, Mohammed Shtayyeh, a Member of the Fatah Central Committee and former PA cabinet minister, stated there was no logic to Israeli soldiers who “attack the Palestinian nation” being allowed to keep dual citizenship in a foreign country. Shtayyeh added that the PA Foreign Minister Riyad al-Maliki has already turned to several nations requesting that they negate the citizenship of the soldiers. This is in fact not the first time that Shtayyeh has been a proponent of this particular kind of strategy. Last December, during the peace talks that Abbas torpedoed in April with his Hamas unity deal and which Shtayyeh opposed, the Fatah leader threatened to request from foreign governments to pressure Israel into stripping Jewish residents of Judea and Samaria of their Israeli citizenship. As long-term ceasefire negotiations between Israel and the Hamas terrorist group are set to begin shortly in Cairo, the PA has increasingly shown a willingness to try and use international pressure on Israel to weaken the Jewish state.

Headline: Shin Bet sources: 10 Israeli Arabs joined Islamic State

Ten Israeli Arabs have joined up with the Islamic State to fight in Iraq and Syria, according to reports based on unnamed Shin Bet sources. According to Israel Hayom, the numbers remain low, but the national security agency is keeping close tabs on those suspected of joining the jihadists for fear they will return to carry out attacks in Israel. A troubling spike of interest in jihadi groups has been detected, primarily in the al-Nusra Front, but more recently in the Islamic State as well, Israel Hayom reported. The Mossad, Military Intelligence, and the police are joining the Shin Bet in an effort to track Arab Israelis leaving to fight in Syria. The development is especially worrying for Israel because its security forces expect citizens fighting in Syria to become further radicalized, and to undergo military training. In addition, jihadist groups have tried to glean information about Israel from the Israeli Arab recruits.

Headline: Jordan’s growing economic troubles could aid jihadist recruitment

As Jordan deals with growing economic difficulties and civil disturbances, jihadists from al-Qaida’s Nusra Front and the Islamic State could try to take advantage of the circumstances by gaining new recruits, a study finds. The author of the study, David Schenker, the director of the Program on Arab Politics at The Washington Institute for Near East Policy and a former official dealing with the Middle East for the Pentagon, told The Jerusalem Post on Thursday that he does not think the Salafi/jihadi threat to Jordan is being overhyped.
“Given what’s happening in Syria and Iraq, concerns about the security and stability of Jordan are well warranted,” said Schenker, noting that “Islamic State recruitment in the region is largely driven by sectarian sentiment.” “My experience in the kingdom – which much of the media coverage seems to confirm – is that Jordanian jihadis, whether from the Islamic State or the Nusra Front, are not uniformly impoverished.” In fact, many come from the middle class, he said. “Still,” added Schenker, “there is a growing level of frustration in the kingdom primarily related to the economy and the lack of opportunity, and this could contribute to the growth of Salafism.” And the line “between Salafism and jihadism is exceedingly thin.”
King Abdullah has a plethora of problems to deal with, but if the economy is not improved, it will exacerbate them, he said.

Headline:  Qatar delegation is in Arsal negotiating release of hostages

The Lebanese government has given permission to the army to launch a military operation to free the soldiers held by Takfiri terrorist groups. “The Cabinet affirmed its support for the missions carried out by the Army and security forces in Arsal and its environs and asked their commanders to take all necessary measures to bring the situation in Arsal under control and free the kidnapped soldiers,” Information Minister Ramzi Joreige told reporters after a Thursday cabinet session. He added that the government believes that “the safety of our sons kidnapped by Takfiri organizations cannot be subject to compromise, negligence or swap because the state, with its institutions and security forces, will firmly confront anything that might endanger the lives of our sons.” The families of the captives held a protest rally on Thursday and gave the government 24 hours to take action before they took matters into their own hands. The protest came after a soldier was decapitated by the Takfiri militants in the most serious spillover of the crisis from neighboring Syria. Meanwhile, Police and soldiers abducted by jihadi militants from Lebanon’s northeastern town of Ersal last month appeared in a video released Friday by their captors urging Hezbollah to withdraw from Syria. At least nine troops and police officers could be seen in the 27-minute long propaganda tape released by the al-Qaeda’s Syrian affiliate al-Nusra Front in which the jihadi group accuses Hezbollah of intentionally targeting women and children in Syria. “If you have nothing to do with Syria, get out. If you want to fight, go to Palestine. If you don’t want to fight, stay at home,” one of the detained security forces, presumably speaking under intense pressure, said in the video titled “Who will pay?” Another abductee noted that the attacks on Lebanon, including suicide bombings, only began after Hezbollah intervened in the Syrian war. Several of prisoners repeated the phrase, “Why do we have to pay for your actions?”

The Lebanese military said one person was killed as Israel blew up a suspicious device after it had been detected in southern Lebanon on Friday. The official National News Agency (NNA) said earlier that a spying device had been found and blown up. “A military intelligence patrol found a suspicious device near the town of Adlun,” the army said in an online statement. “While preparations were being made to inspect it, the Israeli enemy blew it up remotely, killing a civilian who was in the area.” A security source identified the civilian to the Lebanese Daily Star as 25-year-old Hussein Ali Haidar, a Hezbollah explosive expert, and said as many as four explosive devices were planted on Hezbollah’s telecommunications network. Residents of Adlun also told the daily that they reportedly saw an IAF plane hovering over the site moments before the explosion. The IDF Spokesperson’s Office has yet to comment on the accusation.

Ansar Bait al-Maqdis militant in Sinai says Islamic State helps the group, responsible for multiple attacks in Israel, by teaching the element of surprise and how to evade capture. Islamic State, fighting to redraw the map of the Middle East, has been coaching Egypt’s most dangerous militant group, complicating efforts to stabilize the biggest Arab nation. Confirmation that Islamic Sate, currently the most successful of the region’s jihadi groups, is extending its influence to Egypt will sound alarm bells in Cairo, where the authorities are already facing a security challenge from home-grown militants. A senior commander from the Sinai-based Ansar Bait al-Maqdis, which has killed hundreds of members of the Egyptian security forces over the last year, said Islamic State has provided instructions on how to operate more effectively. “They teach us how to carry out operations. We communicate through the internet,” the commander, who asked to remain anonymous, told Reuters.

Eighteen foreign fighters from the Islamic State, including an American jihadist, were killed in a Syrian air raid on a town near the militant group’s main stronghold city of Raqqa in eastern Syria, a human rights monitoring group said on Thursday. The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, which has tracked violence on all sides of the three-year-old conflict, said reliable sources reported that top Islamic State leaders who happened to be in the municipal building of Gharbiya at the time of the raid were among the foreign fighters killed. The building had been used as a headquarters of the hardline group, according to the monitoring body. Another air raid on Thursday that hit a former intelligence headquarters in the city of Abu Kamal near the border with Iraq that was used by the Islamic State also killed an undisclosed number of their members, the monitoring group said.

Syrian helicopters dropped barrel bombs on a taxi stand in the city of Aleppo Friday, killing at least 12 civilians, including a child, a monitoring group said. “Twelve civilians, among them a child, were killed, and five others seriously wounded after helicopters launched two explosive-laden barrels against the Haidariyeh district,” the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said. An AFP journalist at the scene saw at least a dozen bloodied corpses lying on the ground. One, wrapped in a shroud, was apparently that of a child. The journalist also saw several people on stretchers, showing burns and shrapnel wounds, and others lying in pools of blood near sandbags. It was not clear whether they were dead. Haidariyeh is home to a popular taxi stand, and the AFP journalist said he saw numerous destroyed cars. There was also a massive crater in the street left by one of the bombs.

Syria Headline: ISIS executes Syrian youth after anti-jihadist protest

ISIS fighters executed a youth in a Syrian town Friday, after hundreds of residents demanded they leave following regime airstrikes that targeted the jihadists but killed eight civilians, an activist group said. Residents of Ashara, in the mostly ISIS-controlled eastern province of Deir al-Zor, protested in front of an ISIS headquarters Thursday evening, hours after regime airstrikes killed the two children, five women and a man, Syrian Observatory for Human Rights director Rami Abdel-Rahman said. In response, ISIS gunmen opened fire and seized several young men, the Observatory and an activist said. The airstrikes were part of a stepped-up campaign launched in recent weeks by President Bashar Assad’s regime against ISIS-held towns and villages in eastern and northern Syria. But activists have frequently condemned the attacks for killing not only jihadists, but also many civilians. “Thursday evening’s protest began as a funeral for the victims, attended by nearly 300 people,” said Rayan al-Furati, an activist from Deir al-Zor. “Then the mourners began to protest, demanding that the ISIS leave the town of Ashara,” Furati told AFP via the Internet. The Observatory said that Friday ISIS publicly executed and crucified a young man identified as Ali Khalaf, accusing him of “heresy and apostasy.” “Though he had nothing to do with yesterday’s protests, they executed him publicly in Ashara in order to terrorise people into not taking any kind of action against the ISIS,” Abdel-Rahman said.

Syria Headline: Islamic State militants bomb Kurdish villages in northern Syria

Militant fighters of the Islamic State (IS) bombed on Friday several Kurdish villages in the countryside of Tel Abyad (in the Raqqa Province) in northern Syria. IS fighters started extended military operations against the Kurdish-populated western countryside of Tel Abyad on Thursday evening, and continued the bombardment of the villages until Friday morning. The IS-held city of Tel Abyad was used as a basis from which mortars and tanks’ shells were fired against the western countryside –which is controlled by the Kurdish forces of the Popular Protection Units (YPG). The villages of Tel Koberlik, al-Huriyah and Zarzouri were heavily bombed by militants of the Islamic State (IS/ISIL). Speaking to ARA News from Tel Abyad, media activist Omid Khoshman, who accompanies the the Kurdish YPG forces, said that the IS-led operations caused enormous damage in the civilians’ houses in the western countryside of Tel Abyad, “but no casualties were reported so far”. “Following the intensive shelling, clashes broke out between the YPG fighters and IS group at the outskirts of Tel Abyad ,” Khoshman reported.

The Syrian government is seeking to present itself as the West’s only option to confront the Islamic State (IS) in Syria. After the terror group’s gains in Iraq and eastern Syria — edging out both its jihadist rival Jabhat al-Nusra from Deir ez-Zor and the last regime bastion in Raqqa — IS is making its move in Aleppo’s countryside, pushing closer to the country’s second largest city as it strikes rebel-held territory. But despite the shocking loss of the Tabaqa military air base in Raqqa and IS’ execution of dozens of captured Syrian soldiers, the Syrian regime is still prioritizing its fight with Jabhat al-Nusra and rebel factions. “If the regime had to choose between Jabhat al-Nusra and IS, it would still prefer IS,” a Lebanese source close to the Syrian government told Al-Monitor on condition of anonymity.

Maliki withdrew his bid to be elected as Iraq’s new Prime Minister, the third time in a row, after he lost support form Kurds, some Shiite lines as well as regional states and the US. PM-designate Haidar al-Abadi was ordered by Massoum to form new government. He is from Maliki’s coalition. The source went on to say that the new decision has been made in a meeting of the coalition at Ibrahim Ja’affari’s home.

***To keep track of Iraq: Maliki WAS the Prime Minister, but now it’s al-Abadi, both Shiites. The president of Iraq is Fuad Masum, a Kurd. The president of Kurdistan is Masoud Barzani and Nechirvan Barzani is the prime minister. Nechirvan is Masoud’s nephew.

Headline:   ISIS’ Black Market Oil Business Could Net up to $100 Million a Day

ISIS has seized much of northern Iraq during its tour of terror across the region. And in addition to strategically taking over town and dams, ISIS has also snatched oil fields as a means of beefing up its funds. Vocativ went to Kirkuk’s oil field to gain insight on the black market oil trade that’s bankrolling the Islamic State. Running a caliphate—which ISIS has made very clear is its objective—is a pricey endeavor. Up until recently, the terrorist organization has mainly subsisted on donations, hostage negotiations and crime networks. But now ISIS is stepping it up a notch and making millions of dollars per day selling oil tapped from conquered land. “ISIS is repeating their strategy in Syria,” IraqOilReport.com’s Patrick Osgood tells us. “They’re lifting oil from stricken pipelines, smaller oil fields…and then they sell it through the very established Iraqi oil smuggling industry.” At this time, the Islamic extremists are eyeing the Kirkuk oil field, which holds around 10 million barrels of oil. According to the Iraq Energy Institute, if ISIS is successful in seizing the oil field, it could make upwards of $100 million per day. Vocativ has learned that ISIS is currently recruiting oil industry engineers online. In an open call for specialists, ISIS ends by thanking Allah for the revenue they’ve incurred through oil, gas and water.

President Petro Poroshenko said he ordered government forces to stop hostilities at 6 P.M. local time following a protocol signed by representatives of Ukraine, Russia, the rebels and the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe. “I count on this agreement, including the ceasing of fire and the freeing of hostages, to be precisely observed,” Poroshenko said in a statement. Heidi Tagliavini of the OSCE told reporters the deal reached at talks in the Belarusian capital of Minsk consisted of 12 points but she did not immediately spell them out before heading back into the talks. “The cease-fire will allow us to save not only civilians lives, but also the lives of the people who took up arms in order to defend their land and ideals,” said Alexander Zakharchenko, the rebel leader from the Donetsk region.

Headline:   US: ‘No plans’ for military coordination with Iran over IS

Iran, perceiving a serious threat from Islamic State in northern Iraq, has determined to cooperate with the U.S. against the group, the BBC reported on Friday. According to the report, which quoted sources in Teheran, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has cleared his top military commander to cooperate with U.S., Iraqi and Kurdish forces. Iran, run by Shi’ites, considers the Islamic State’s Sunni fighters a threat. The Islamic State, which is trying to form a caliphate in Iraq and Syria, considers Shi’ites heretics, the BBC reported. The Iranian leader had previously expressed his objection outside “interference” in Iraq. Meanwhile, in a conflicting report The United States said Friday it has “no plans” for any military coordination with Iran in the fight against Islamic State fighters operating in Iraq and Syria. “We are not going to coordinate military action or share intelligence with Iran and have no plans to do so,” State Department deputy spokeswoman Marie Harf said, reacting to reports that Tehran had approved such an arrangement. Harf said that Washington was “open to engaging” with Iran as it had in the past on select issues, notably on Afghanistan in late 2001, when the two sides worked to put Hamid Karzai into power after the fall of the Taliban. “But we will not be coordinating our action together,” she added.

Headline:   Iran fails to address nuclear bomb concerns: IAEA

Iran has failed to address concerns about suspected atomic bomb research by an agreed deadline, the U.N. nuclear watchdog said on Friday, a setback to hopes for an end to an international stand-off over Tehran’s atomic activity. The lack of movement in an inquiry by the International Atomic Energy Agency will disappoint the West and could further complicate efforts by six world powers to negotiate a resolution to the decade-old dispute with Iran over its nuclear ambitions. An IAEA report obtained by Reuters showed that little substantive headway had so far been made in the U.N. agency’s long-running investigation into what it calls the possible military dimensions of Iran’s nuclear program.

Meanwhile, Cairo is seeking international support to guarantee the success of its initiative to restore stability in Libya and remove heavy weapons from the militias and tribes in return for their participation in political life. Egypt does not wish to interfere in Libyan affairs amid the lack of reliable institutions capable of completing the disarmament process. Thus, Cairo is seeking the help of international organizations such as the United Nations to ensure the success of the move, which it recently approved in ministerial-level meetings with Libya’s neighbors.

Headline:   Cash-flush ISIL ‘buying supporters’ in northern Morocco

Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant has been quietly building a presence in Morocco. ISIL is believed to have established cells in several regions of Morocco. The Al Qaida-aligned movement is said to have focused on the northern region of the North African kingdom, including Laarache and Tangier. “ISIL has plenty of money and are buying supporters,” a security source said. The source said the ISIL presence stemmed from nearly two years of recruitment of Moroccans for the wars in Iraq and Syria. He said more than 2,000 Moroccans were mobilized for these campaigns, some of whom returned to establish ISIL cells. In July 2014, ISIL posted a video of recruitment efforts in Morocco. A 28-year-old operative identified as Mohammed Hamdouch, a former resident of the northern town of Fnideq, was seen beheading five people in Syria. “The northern region has been neglected, if not completely forgotten, since independence,” Mountacir Zian, director of Mediterranean Strategic Analysis and Intelligence, said. The Moroccan government has not acknowledged the ISIL presence although it reported the arrest of more than a dozen suspected operatives. But analysts asserted that northern Morocco was becoming a hotbed of Al Qaida support.

The Arab daily Al Massae, reports that the Gulf countries are trying to persuade Morocco and Jordan to join their forces in the war against the Islamic State terrorist organization. Requests were also sent to Tunisia, Algeria, and Egypt.   Defense News  reported that the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) was seeking to form a military bloc with Morocco and Jordan to resolve manpower issues. A Jordanian official said that the proposal had been presented to Morocco and Jordan in March and was under consideration. Al Massae said that the armed forces included Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Bahrain, Oman, Morocco, Jordan and possibly Egypt. Saudi Arabia was pushing for Egyptian involvement. The newspaper reported that a force of 300,000 troops from Morocco, Jordan and possibly Egypt would be added to the GCC forces. The report pointed to significant Gulf investment in Jordan and Morocco, and the need to form a joint military command for the force. The GCC joint military command is likely to achieve a force of 100,000 troops, according to Prince Mutaib bin Abdullah, Saudi Arabia’s Minister for the National Guard. The United States is selling weapons to the GCC ahead of the announcement of the joint command, the newspaper concluded.

Headline: La Raza Pushes Obama To ‘Fulfill His Promise’ On Amnesty

Infowars reporter Joe Biggs crossed the U.S. border from Mexico dressed as an ISIS militant to illustrate how easy it is for anyone to get into America despite warnings that Islamic State terrorists are plotting to carry out attacks on the homeland from their base in Juarez. Just miles from the center of El Paso, Texas, Biggs was able to cross a river from Mexico into America dressed as a jihadist, while simulating a beheading and waving an ISIS flag. “We dressed up as an ISIS jihadi to be as obvious as possible and to show and illustrate just how wide open the border really is,” states Biggs. Last month, James O’Keefe also demonstrated the porous state of the U.S. border when he crossed an unguarded footbridge in the upper Rio Grande while dressed as Osama Bin Laden. Biggs’ stunt is shocking given that ISIS militants are currently operational in Juarez, Mexico, just across the border from El Paso, Texas. According to an alert released by watchdog group Judicial Watch which cites high level law enforcement and intelligence sources, “Islamic terrorist groups are operating in the Mexican border city of Ciudad Juarez and planning to attack the United States with car bombs or other vehicle born improvised explosive devices (VBIED).” “Intelligence officials have picked up radio talk and chatter indicating that the terrorist groups are going to “carry out an attack on the border,” according to one JW source. “It’s coming very soon,” according to this high-level source, who clearly identified the groups planning the plots as “ISIS and Al Qaeda.”

The witnesses, who managed to flee the area, said that the Takfiri militants launched a house-to-house search in and around the town on Thursday. The militants reportedly killed several men suspected of being members of a local group resisting Boko Haram’s aggression in the area. At least 180 people have been killed and over 26,000 others forced to flee Bama since the violence erupted in the town. On Wednesday, officials in the northeastern state of Borno denied that the militants had captured Bama, which has a population of about 270,000. Ahmed Zanna, a senator from Borno state, described the humanitarian situation in Bama as “unbearable.”

Canadian employment unexpectedly fell in August led by a record drop in private-sector jobs, undermining policy makers’ optimism about Canada’s economic recovery. Employment fell by 11,000 and the jobless rate was unchanged at 7.0 percent, Statistics Canada said today in Ottawa. Economists surveyed by Bloomberg News projected a 10,000 job increase and unchanged unemployment according to median forecasts in Bloomberg surveys. The employment loss masked the 111,800 decline in private-sector jobs, a record amount that equaled the 1 percent drop set in April 1982. “Certainly it’s not an encouraging trend” in employment, Paul Ferley, assistant chief economist at Royal Bank of Canada, said by telephone from Toronto. The economy’s growth rate won’t be sustained unless “labor markets continue to make a contribution with increased hiring.”

The mechanised unit led by a US major general will be set up in the first half of next year, the South’s defence ministry said, as part of elaborate preparations for any future war between the two Koreas. “It will be the first combined field combat unit to carry out wartime operations,” a defence ministry spokesman said without elaborating on its mission. He declined to confirm a Yonhap news agency report that its remit would include eliminating weapons of mass destruction in the nuclear-armed North if war breaks out. The ministry said the contingent would have a joint office of US and South Korean staff in Uijeongbu, north of Seoul, where the US 2nd Infantry Division guards a strategically important area as a deterrent to an invasion by North Korea. In the event of an all-out conflict, a mechanised South Korean brigade would join forces with the US division, which is armed with helicopters and other advanced weapons, it said.

No evacuations were ordered as of Thursday evening, but the emergency proclamation will help streamline efforts if families do need to leave. The observatory said the lava has been advancing about 800 feet per day since July 10.

Headline: IDF attacks Syrian army position after stray projectile hits Golan

Headline: Golan Heights border violence has Israelis on edge

Headline: Israeli Golan residents tell government to ‘wake up’

The IDF fired a Spike (Tamuz) missile at a Syrian army position on Thursday in response to a stray projectile fired from the neighboring country that hit the Israeli Golan Heights earlier in the day. A direct hit was confirmed.  A rocket siren was sounded Thursday afternoon in the northern Golan Heights. A projectile from fighting in the Syrian civil war fell in the Golan Regional Council, north of the community Ortal. The IDF was still searching the area for any additional rockets that may have fallen on the Israeli side of the border. In a statement, the military said it appeared the shooting from Syria was “errant fire” from battles between forces loyal to Syrian President Bashar Assad and rebels trying to topple him. The IDF did not say what type of it carried out. The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said it was an air strike on a Syrian army base on the Golan. There were no immediate reports of casualties from either side. “The IDF sees the Syrian army as responsibile for any rocket fire towards Israel,” the army said in a statement.

Headline: Are UN Troops Captured in Syria Next in Line for Beheading?

The UN peacekeeping chief strongly denied on Wednesday allegations from the Philippines’ army chief that Filipino peacekeepers in the Golan Heights were ordered to surrender their weapons to Islamist militants who had trapped them. Filipino army chief General Gregorio Catapang said his soldiers had defended themselves against Islamist rebels last weekend in defiance of an order from their UN force commander to surrender their weapons, a move that would be highly controversial in the six-nation, blue-helmeted force.

Headline: Fiji rejects report of retaliation against local Muslims

Fiji’s army chief on Thursday dismissed as “sick” a suggestion the Pacific nation’s Muslim minority will face a backlash if 45 UN peacekeepers taken hostage by Islamic rebels in the Golan Heights are harmed. Brigadier General Mosese Tikoitoga also defended the action of his troops in surrendering to Al-Qaeda-linked al-Nusra Front rebels, even though a contingent of 75 Filipino peacekeepers who defied an order to lay down their weapons all escaped unscathed. Tikoitoga, speaking to reporters in Suva just hours after the UN Security Council demanded the Fijians’ immediate release, said the location of the Blue Helmets was still unknown. He also revealed that talks with their captors had hit a “lull” but said specialized UN negotiators flown in from New York to deal with the crisis had told him this was normal in a hostage situation. “They (the rebels) do not establish contact so that they can regain the initiative on negotiations,” he said. “But these are (just) tactics they use and I hope that we will resume discussions soon and we can get them back on the line.”

Headline: Israel says Abbas must sever ties with Hamas following connection to kidnapping of Israeli teens

With Thursday’s indictment of Hussam Hassan Kawasme as the Hamas mastermind of the kidnapping and murder of three Israeli teens in June, government officials called on Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas do what what he and senior PA officials said in June they would do: rethink the Fatah-Hamas reconciliation process. One government official said that shortly after Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu accused Hamas of the abduction of Naphtali Fraenkel, Gilad Shaer, and Eyal Yifrach, Abbas made a statement that if Hamas was truly responsible, he would reconsider the unity government. “Now that Hamas officials are even taking credit, the evidence is overwhelming,” he said. “Is Abbas going to follow through?” On June 19, Abbas was quoted in the Palestinian newspaper Al-Ayyam as saying at a conference in Saudi Arabia that Netanyahu used the abductions to “act violently against us, wreak havoc, especially in Hebron, and place the responsibility on us. We will investigate the issue and its perpetrators. The truth is that whoever carried this out wanted to destroy us, therefore we will speak to them differently and take a different approach toward them.” Three days later he was quoted again in Al-Ayyam saying that Israel blamed Hamas for the kidnappings, even though there was no proof yet. “When the facts are made clear, there will be a clear Palestinian position regarding this,” he said. Palestinian Foreign Minister Riad al-Maliki was even more direct during an interview at the same time with Reuters,  saying: “If Hamas was behind it [the kidnappings], which no one can say right now, then this would be a blow to the reconciliation process. If we reach that conclusion, then the president [Abbas] will make drastic decisions.”

Headline: US rejected Abbas’s peace plan, PA says

Chief PLO negotiator Saeb Erekat on Wednesday presented US Secretary of State John Kerry with Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas’s new peace plan to establish a Palestinian state. Abbas dispatched Erekat and PA General Intelligence Chief Majed Faraj to Washington to present the initiative to Kerry. Following the meeting, Erekat said he delivered a letter from Abbas to Kerry regarding the “needs to end the Israeli occupation within a specific timetable. Erekat said that the initiative calls for the establishment of an independent Palestinian state on the pre-1967 lines with east Jerusalem as its capital. Erekat did not say anything about Kerry’s response to the initiative. Abbas was recently quoted as saying that he did not expect the US Administration to accept his new initiative, which he described as an “unconventional solution” to the Israeli-Arab conflict. “Kerry met with Saeb Erekat and Majed Faraj for about two hours this afternoon,” State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki said.

Headline: Jordanian MPs Demand: Let’s Stay Out of Fight with IS

A group of Jordanian deputies demanded on Wednesday that the kingdom stay out of any war against Islamic State jihadists who have captured swathes of territory in neighboring Iraq and Syria, AFP reports. 21 MPs, who represent various factions in the 150-seat parliament, sent a memorandum to speaker Atef al-Tarawneh demanding “the government not involve Jordan (in the fight) against the Islamic State”, the report said. “This war is not our war. Accordingly, we reject categorically any Jordanian contribution in a battle that is not ours,” they said in the document seen by AFP. “We do not want to be dragged into an international coalition,” said Khalil Attia, one of the deputies who signed the memorandum. Jordan’s King Abdullah is to attend a NATO summit on Thursday of Western leaders including U.S. President Barack Obama, according to the report. Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu later asked the international community to support Jordan in the fight against Islamic extremism and to back the independence of Iraq’s Kurds.

Headline: ISIS executes Lebanese man in border town: NNA 

Headline:   Lebanon rejects swap deal in captive soldiers crisis

ISIS executed a Lebanese man from the northeastern town of Arsal Thursday, according to the National News Agency.  The state-run agency said the victim has been identified as Kayed Ghadadah.  Security sources told The Daily Star that Ghadadah was kidnapped last week from his house in north Arsal and was taken to the town’s outskirts close to the Syrian border.  Media reports are indicating that ISIS executed Ghadadh for his ties to Hezbollah.  Last week, a video surfaced on social media showing two Syrians held by a radical group saying they, along with Ghadadah, were recruited by Hezbollah to ignite strife between the Lebanese Army, Syrian refugees and the jihadists who have infiltrated the border in light of the battles in Qalamoun, a mountainous region bordering Lebanon.  The two men, who appeared in the video posted by a YouTube channel called “The Network of the White Minaret’s Correspondents,” identified themselves as Mohammad Abdo Araj and Mohammad Mahmoud Abdel-Nabi.  The two said Hezbollah trained them on the use firearms and how to plant bombs, and asked them to coordinate with each other to attack an Army post. One of the men also alleged that the party had killed a Lebanese soldier who sought to defect from the Army.

Headline:  ISIS terror threats against Christians spread in north Lebanon

The epidemic of graffiti threats against Christians hit the Tripoli neighborhood of Minieh Thursday.  A message painted on the wall of Mar Elias Church read “the Islamic State will break the cross.”  The graffiti in black spray paint was in Arabic.  On Tuesday, a similar message was painted on the wall of March Elias Church in the Tripoli neighborhood of Mina.  “We came to slaughter you, you worshipers of the cross,” the graffiti read.  Tensions have risen in Tripoli since last week, with several incidents of intimidation against the  city’s Christian community.  Crosses were allegedly burned over the weekend and several churches were defaced with threatening messages, thought to be in retaliation for the burning of Islamist flags by several youths in Beirut’s Sassine Square.  The incidents have been widely condemned by officials, with Justice Minister Ashraf Rifi promising a full investigation into any attempts to incite sectarian strife, and the Lebanese Army enhancing security arrangements in the city.

Syria Headline:    Air strike kills 12 civilians in Syria’s Deir ez-Zor

On Wednesday, the Syrian air force carried out several air raids on the city of Deir ez-Zor in eastern Syria, where extremists of the Islamic State (IS) are in control. At least 12 civilians were killed as a missile –launched by pro-Assad warplanes– hit a civilian bus carrying passengers in Deir ez-Zor. “Among the casualties were 7 children,” an eyewitness told ARA News. “Pro-Assad forces never care about civilians. There are still many people living here in Deir ez-Zor who insist on staying, regardless of the persecution practised by IS terrorists; but the pro-Assad warplanes carries out air strikes killing dozens, which means such operations are not really focused on IS,” an opposition activist in Deir ez-Zor told ARA News, preferring anonymity. Deir ez-Zor is considered the second main stronghold of the Islamic State’s militants in Syria after Raqqa province.  The Syrian regime’s military forces have recently intensified operations against IS headquarters in Deir ez-Zor and Raqqa. According to locals activists, the air strikes of pro-Assad forces claimed lives of more civilians than of IS militants.

Syria Headline:    US: Terrorist Could Get Syria Chemical Weapons

The United States is concerned that the Islamic State group and other terrorists could get a hold of chemical weapons if Syria is hiding any stockpiles, the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations said Thursday. Samantha Power spoke to reporters after the Security Council received a briefing from Sigrid Kaag, who heads the international effort to rid Syria of its chemical weapons. The joint mission of the United Nations and the Organization for the prohibition of Chemical Weapons will end at the end of the month after destroying nearly all of Syria’s declared stockpile. But Kaag said the OPCW is still working with Syria to resolve discrepancies in its declaration, which she said range from outdated records to discrepancies on the volume of materials. Power said the U.S. is concerned not only that President Bashar Assad’s regime still has chemical weapons but that any stockpiles left behind could end up in the hands of the Islamic State group, which has seized large swaths of Syria and Iraq. “Certainly if there are chemical weapons left in Syria, there will be a risk that those weapons fall into ISIL’s hands. And we can only imagine what a group like that would do if in possession of such a weapon,” Power said, referring to the militant group by one of its known acronyms. She said the “Security Council intends to stay very much on top of this.” Power stressed, however, that the immediate concern is that Assad’s regime still possesses chemical weapons, saying that “there is one actor that has actually used chemical weapons.” There was no immediate reaction from Syria’s U.N. Mission to Kaag’s briefing or Power’s remarks.

Iraq Headline:  NATO would consider any Iraq request for IS help

NATO would “seriously” consider any request from Iraq for assistance in a war against insurgents from the Islamic State (IS), NATO chief Anders Fogh Rasmussen said on Thursday. “We will discuss what individual allies and what NATO can do to counter the threat from the terrorist organisation, so-called Islamic State,” he said before the start of a two-day summit of leaders from the Western military alliance in Newport, Wales. “We haven’t received any request for NATO engagement. I’m sure that if the Iraqi government were to forward a request for NATO assistance, that would be considered seriously by NATO allies,” the secretary general said. “I do believe that the international community as a whole has an obligation to stop the Islamic State from advancing further,” he said, after two US journalists were executed by IS militants as retaliation for US air strikes in Iraq. One of the videos also said a British hostage would be killed next if bombing continued. The NATO summit billed as the most important since the Cold War got underway Thursday with calls to stand up to Russia over Ukraine and confront Islamic State militants. The Ukraine crisis tops the agenda but the 28 leaders must also tackle new threats posed by Islamic State in Iraq and Syria. “To the southeast we see the rise of a terrorist organisation, the so-called Islamic State,” Rasmussen said, adding: “We will take important steps to counter these threats.”

Iraq Headline:     Islamic State kidnaps 40 men in Iraq’s Kirkuk region – residents

Islamic State militants kidnapped 40 men from a town in Iraq’s northern province of Kirkuk on Thursday, dragging the men into cars before driving off, residents said. Residents of the Sunni Muslim town of Hawija said by telephone they did not know why the men had been taken, from a district on the edge of the town. They added that Islamic State, which controls Hawija, had not faced any resistance from its inhabitants. Islamic State has seized hundreds of Iraqi and Syrian soldiers as well as members of other insurgent groups, journalists and civilians. Some have been sold for ransom and others have been killed. The group launched a lightning advance through northern and central Iraq in June, declaring an Islamic caliphate. With the help of U.S. air strikes, Iraq’s army and Kurdish forces have been able to push the fighters back from some areas. The Ministry of Defence said on Thursday on state television Iraqi forces had killed three “leaders” of Islamic State in three separate attacks on Mosul and Tel Afar in the north.

The family of Steven Sotloff, the second American journalist beheaded by Islamic State of Iraq and Syria militants, said on Wednesday he was “a gentle soul,” and challenged the group’s leader to a debate on the peaceful teachings of the Muslim holy book, the Quran. Barak Barfi, a friend of Sotloff who is serving as family spokesman, began a prepared statement from the family in English, challenged Islamic State leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi to debate Islam, saying, “Woe to you. You said the month of Ramadan is the month of mercy. Where is your mercy?” “God does not love the aggressor,” added Barfi, who is an Arabic scholar and research fellow at the New America Foundation think tank in Washington. He went on, “I am ready to debate you with kind preachings. I have no sword in my hand and I am ready for your answer.”

Headline:   IS funding? Danish police raid charity

A spokesman for the Aarhus mosque Grimhøjmoskeen has openly declared the mosque’s support of the terrorist organisation Islamic State, or Isis. “An Islamic state will always be what Muslims long for, therefore we cannot help but to support the Islamic State. Even if it makes mistakes, we will just have to wait and see,” mosque spokesman Fadi Abdallah told the online news source Den Korte Avis.  “The conditions aren’t the same down there [in Syria and Iraq, ed.] as they are here. I can fully understand why people are getting killed,” he continued.  In a subsequent interview with TV2 Østjylland, Abdallah stood by his wish for an Islamic state. “Muslims should have their own state and we support that. Muslims should be able to govern their own state and judge other Muslims without influence from the West,” he said. He told TV2 Østjylland that he doesn’t condone Isis’s violence. “It is of course deplorable, and we are sorry that it has come to this,” he said.  Grimhøjmoskeen has long been accused of promoting an extremist interpretation of Islam. In July, a video emerged of Abu Bilal Ismail, an imam at the mosque, calling on God to “destroy the Zionist Jews”. He has since been officially reported to the police.

Headline:  India on Alert After Al-Qaida Announces Local Branch

Al-Qaida has launched a group in the Indian subcontinent, targeting India, Myanmar and Bangladesh. But security analysts see India as the main target. Indian intelligence agencies issued alerts across the country hours after al-Qaida leader, Ayman al-Zawahiri, threatened to raise the flag of “jihad” and spread Islamic rule on the Indian subcontinent. In a 55-minute video posted online, Zawahiri said al-Qaida’s new unit in the subcontinent would rescue Muslims from injustice and oppression in the Indian states of Gujarat, Assam and Kashmir, and in Bangladesh and Myanmar. Sambit Patra, a leader of the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party, called al-Qaida’s plans to push its terror outfit in the subcontinent a serious concern. Patra says India has a very strong government, and it will take strict action on the issue. India’s Home Minister, Rajnath Singh, met with top security officials to discuss the threat. Security analysts see al-Qaida’s apparent new push as an effort to enhance its diminishing clout, as it loses ground to jihadist group Islamic State, which has gained influence in Syria and Iraq. The announcement could pose a challenge to India’s new prime minister, Narendra Modi, who has already faced criticism for remaining silent about several incidents deemed anti-Muslim while he was chief minister of Gujarat state. Meanwhile, security and police officials have been told to be vigilant about any efforts at large-scale recruitment of young Muslims by the terror group.

Headline: Russian General Calls for Preemptive Nuclear Strike Doctrine Against NATO

Headline:  France halts Russia warship deal, as Nato leaders meet

A Russian general has called for Russia to revamp its military doctrine, last updated in 2010, to clearly identify the U.S. and its NATO allies as Moscow’s enemy number one and spell out the conditions under which Russia would launch a preemptive nuclear strike against the 28-member military alliance, Interfax reported Wednesday. Russia’s military doctrine, a strategy document through which the government interprets military threats and crafts possible responses, is being revised in light of threats connected to the Arab Spring, the Syrian civil war and the conflict in Ukraine, the deputy chief of the Kremlin’s security council told RIA Novosti on Tuesday. But within the Defense Ministry there are voices calling for different priorities. “First and foremost, the likely enemy of Russia should be clearly identified in this strategic document, something absent from the 2010 military doctrine. In my view, our primary enemy is the U.S. and the North Atlantic bloc,” General Yury Yakubov, a senior Defense Ministry official, was quoted as saying by Interfax. The 2010 doctrine defines NATO expansion as a threat to Russian national security and reaffirms its right to use nuclear weapons in a defensive posture, but stops far short of declaring NATO as Moscow’s primary adversary and laying preemptive nuclear strike scenarios on the table, a posture unmistakably reminiscent of the Cold War.

Ukraine’s president heard words of support from Western leaders at a NATO summit on Thursday, but a Kremlin peace offer failed to halt fighting in the east where dramatic advances by pro-Russian rebels have tipped the balance of power against Kiev. The West believes a rebel advance since last week is the result of an assault by heavily armed Russian troops sent across the border, and has been scrambling to find a response to the biggest confrontation with Moscow since the Berlin Wall fell. Western states have backed Kiev with words and economic sanctions on Moscow, but have also made clear that they will not fight to protect Ukraine, where pro-Russian rebels rose up in two provinces after Moscow annexed the Crimea peninsula in March. President Petro Poroshenko was invited to meet U.S. President Barack Obama, Germany’s Angela Merkel, France’s Francois Hollande and other Western leaders at a summit of NATO in Wales hosted by Britain’s David Cameron. “To the east, Russia has ripped up the rule book with its illegal, self-declared annexation of Crimea and its troops on Ukrainian soil threatening and undermining a sovereign nation state,” Obama and Cameron wrote in a joint newspaper editorial.

Headline:   Iran, U.S. in another round of bilateral nuclear talks in Geneva

Iran and the United States began bilateral nuclear talks in Geneva on Thursday, the second time the two sides have met since Iran and six world powers failed to meet a July 20 deadline to resolve differences in the long-standing dispute. State news agency IRNA and a U.S. official confirmed the talks were underway. Iran and the United States, France, Germany, Britain, China and Russia have set a new deadline of Nov. 24 to negotiate a comprehensive agreement under which Tehran would scale back its nuclear activities in exchange for gradually ending the sanctions that have crippled its oil-dependent economy. “If there is good will and a constructive approach, we can reach a desired result before Nov. 24,” IRNA quoted Iran’s deputy foreign minister Majid Takht-Ravanchi as saying late on Wednesday. The United States last week penalized a number of Iranian and other foreign companies, banks and airlines for violating sanctions against Tehran, saying it was sending a signal that there should be no evasion of sanctions while talks continue. Iranian President Hassan Rouhani said on Saturday the sanctions were against the spirit of negotiations, but added he was not pessimistic about the viability of the talks.

Headline:   Iran Continues to Play Large Role in Fighting Alongside Peshmerga

Headline:   No Iranian forces sent to Iraq: FM Zebar

Since early August, hundreds of Iranian soldiers crossed the border into Iraq in a joint operation with Kurdish Peshmerga forces to fight against the Sunni Islamic State rebel group.
Iranian forces are playing an ever-increasing role in the fight. They are especially fierce over the town of Jalawla, taken by Islamic militants in June, which is dangerously close to the Iranian border and is a strategic point for both Iraq and Iran. A Peshmerga commander told BasNews’ correspondent that the Iranian forces have joined them in Khanaqen in addition to Jalawla, and even hold a presence in Mosul. He stated that Iranian forces played a major role in fighting IS insurgents in Qaraj and Makhmour, and that they supervised most of the clashes with the IS militants with heavy weaponry on stand-by. This is the first time that Iranian troops have been directly involved in the fighting against the Islamic State on this great of a scale, though according to Reza Marashi of the National Iranian American Council, it is unlikely that they’ll up their numbers any more. ‘So far, more than 30 Iranian commanders and soldiers have been killed in the clashes between Peshmerga forces and IS militants,’ said a source close to the various points of battle. Last week, in a press conference that was held in Erbil between Kurdistan Regional President Massoud Barzani and Iran’s Foreign Minister Javad Zarifi, Barzani thanked Iran for being the first country that gave military support to the region. ​

Reported security incidents
#1: The Taliban has struck a government compound in eastern Afghanistan in a dawn attack that included two suicide truck bombings and left at least 12 people dead, including eight off duty policemen asleep in their quarters nearby. The attack started at sunrise, with the Taliban setting off two massive suicide truck bombs outside the government compound in the provincial capital of Ghazni, followed by an assault by nearly a dozen gunmen. The assault triggered a gunbattle with policemen and security forces at the compound and officials said all 13 assailants were subsequently killed, including the two suicide bombers.

Taliban suicide bombers attacked Afghanistan’s regional spy headquarters in Ghazni city early Thursday, leaving 21 people dead and more than 150 civilians wounded, a government official said. Nineteen of the dead were the suicide attackers. The remaining two were members of the National Directorate of Security personnel. The NDS is the nation’s spy agency. The assault began when one of the suicide attackers detonated an explosives-filled truck at the front gate of the spy agency, said Shafiq Nang, a spokesman for the governor of Ghazni province. Twelve of them stormed the NDS. Six others hit the Rapid Reaction Police headquarters in the city.

#2: Seven Afghan army soldiers and 40 Taliban militants have been killed within the past 24 hours, said the country’s Defense Ministry on Thursday morning. Up to six army soldiers were killed in a roadside bombing and one army personnel was killed in direct enemy’s fire over the same period, the statement noted.

18 armed Taliban were killed and 8 others wounded in the outskirts of Zabul and Ghazni provinces.

#3: At least five Afghan National Army (ANA) soldiers were martyred following an attack by Taliban militants in eastern Kunar province of Afghanistan. According to local government officials, the attack was carried out late Wednesday after a group of Taliban militants attacked a security check post. Provincail governor, Shuja-ul-Mulk Jalal, said the assailant militants who attacked the check post were disguised in Afghan army uniform.

Headline:  Ethiopia has understanding for Egypt’s interests: Egypt FM from Addis Ababa

Egyptian-Ethiopian relations are improving amid mutual eagerness for closer ties between the two countries, Egyptian Foreign Minister Sameh Shoukry said shortly after arrival in Ethiopia’s capital, Addis Ababa, for talks on the country’s Grand Renaissance Dam project Thursday.  Shoukry underlined that Ethiopia is showing concern for, and understanding of, Egyptian interests.  The most recent round of talks between Egypt and Ethiopia in Sudan’s Khartoum reflected a significant easing of the crisis that the controversial dam had caused. Egypt’s irrigation minister said last week that 85 percent of issues pertaining to the dam had been resolved.  Egypt’s demand to commission experts to write a report on the design of the dam, and on ways to ensure that the build-up of its reservoir could be achieved without resulting in a major reduction in Egypt’s share of Nile water, was granted in tripartite negotiations between Egypt, Sudan and Ethiopia last week.  Egypt is concerned that the dam Ethiopia is building for electricity generation purposes would negatively affect its share of Nile water, Egypt’s state news agency MENA reported.  Shoukry, who is meeting Ethiopian Foreign Minister Tedros Adhanom, assured Egypt is keen to support Ethiopia’s development through joint-projects and investment, underlining the necessity of cooperation in various fields, adding that the Nile River is central to the development of both countries.

Government forces and helicopters belonging to a Libyan renegade general Haftar bombed ammunition sites of suspected Islamist militants in the eastern city of Benghazi, a military commander and residents said. In another sign of Libya’s descent into anarchy, the U.N. mission said fighting in the two main cities Tripoli and Benghazi has displaced 100,000 people. Some 150,000 people, including foreign workers, have fled the oil producing country. Islamist forces have been trying to take the civilian and military airport from government forces in Benghazi, part of the widespread unrest in the North African country three years after the ouster of Muammar Gaddafi. Western powers and Libya’s neighbors fear the country will turn into a failed state. A weak government is unable to control former rebels who helped topple Gaddafi but now fight each other for power. Wanis Bukhamada, commander of army special forces in the port city of Benghazi, told Reuters his forces had attacked with artillery several ammunition stores in camps held by Islamists late on Wednesday. Residents also heard helicopters and huge blasts lighting up the night sky in a Benghazi suburb. On Thursday war planes could be also heard.

Headline:   Tunisia election faces terror threat

Shortly after Tunisian Interior Minister Lotfi Ben Jeddou warned that terrorists aimed to disrupt the upcoming parliamentary elections, a politician escaped assassination. On Monday (September 2nd), six terrorists attacked MP Mohamed Ali Nasri of Nidaa Tounes, Ennahda’s primary political rival. The home of the MP is located near Jebel Saloum in Hay Ezzouhour, Kasserine. The area was one of the likely targets of terror attacks noted by Ben Jeddou last Saturday in El Aouina. Security forces for months have been battling Islamist extremists entrenched in the country’s western mountains on the border with Algeria. One of these groups on Sunday shot at a security patrol in Kasserine. According to the interior minister, Tunisian cities were relatively safe from the terrorist threat, thanks to the vigilance of security units. For his part, Tunisian Prime Minister Mehdi Jomaa urged Tunisians “to take part in the election regardless of the circumstances”. “We know that the situation is tough,” Jomaa continued. “There may be doubts about the feasibility of taking part in election and a feeling that the election won’t solve all the problems. However, we have to continue to build the Tunisian democratic model.” Tunisians are awaiting legislative elections on October 26th, followed by presidential elections on November 23rd.

Headline:   Russia, Algeria Agree to Cooperate in Nuclear Energy, NPP Project Possible

Russia and Algeria signed an intergovernmental agreement Wednesday to cooperate in nuclear energy, paving the way for possible construction of a nuclear power plant (NPP) in the North African country, Russia’s state-run nuclear corporation Rosatom said. The document was signed in the capital Algiers by Rosatom chief Sergei Kiriyenko and Algerian Energy Minister Youcef Yousfi. It envisages cooperation in the construction of nuclear power plants and research reactors, the use of nuclear reactors for heat generation and desalination of seawater, joint prospecting and mining of uranium deposits, nuclear fuel handling and processing of nuclear waste. “The construction of the nuclear power plant with Russian-designed water power reactor in Algeria could become the key aspect of our cooperation,” Kiriyenko said. Among the main areas of cooperation under the agreement is the construction of nuclear power plants and research reactors in Algeria, the use of nuclear reactors for the production of thermal energy and seawater desalination, exploration and exploitation of uranium mines, nuclear fuel cycle, nuclear fuel handling and the management of radioactive waste and recycling. The Algerian energy minister said that “this agreement will facilitate the development of human resources, technology and science in order to build the first nuclear power plant in Algeria in the next 12 years.”

At least 9 members of the Islamic State (IS) were killed in the village of Ashmi in the western countryside of Kobane, in northern Syria, while trying to illegally cross into Turkey on Tuesday. Kurdish fighters of the Popular Protection Units (YPG) –who are in control in the city of Kobane– have reportedly opened fire against IS militants, killing 9 of them and injuring two others, according to a YPG-linked source. “The village of Ashmi is a contact point between YPG fighters and IS militants, and such incidents take place frequently,” one of the Kurdish villagers told ARA News. “The Turkish border guards usually avoid interfering in this region. The YPG seems more in charge,” the same source added. Noteworthy, dozens of families of foreign members of the Islamic State (IS) arrived recently in Syria to join the “Caliphate”. They primarily reach Syria through Turkey.

Headline:    Kurdish insurgents report growing ISIL presence in Istanbul, assassination of leader

The Kurdish Workers Party has reported an attack on Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant in Turkey. The PKK said it attacked an ISIL leader in the Turkish city of Istanbul. In a statement, the youth wing of PKK said the ISIL operative, identified only as Hikmet, was killed. “Our security forces in the Basaksehir neighborhood have conducted an armed operation against ISIL, killing a gang leader named Hikmet, who was in charge of the organization,” the Patriotic Revolutionary Youth Movement said. Patriotic Revolutionary Youth issued statements on Aug. 30 and Aug. 31 that disclosed the attack on ISIL. The statements said two additional ISIL agents were also injured in the shooting in Basaksehir. The Turkish opposition has reported a growing ISIL presence around Istanbul. Parliamentarians cited an August 2014 video that showed a ceremony at an unidentified ISIL training camp outside Istanbul, the largest city in Turkey. Later, PKK sources said ISIL was recruiting Turks and other nationals for the war in neighboring Iraq and Syria. They said the PKK strike targeted an ISIL recruitment cell that operated in Basaksehir. “There were five or six people in a car that was leaving the [ISIL] cell house,” a PKK source told Turkey’s Firat news agency. “Two or three gang members were also shot in our precision operation.”

Headline:    Turkish minister: Christianity no longer a religion

***Keep in mind- Turkey is a NATO ally

“There are 2.5 billion Christians in the world,” Bayraktar said. “Christianity is no longer a religion. It’s a culture now. But that is not what a religion is like. A religion teaches; it is a form of life that gives one peace and happiness. That is what they want to turn [Islam] into as well.” In other words, he is telling his audience to be on guard against those who try to water down, or should we say moderate, the teachings of Islam. Those teachings, including, presumably, the teachings of jihad warfare against unbelievers and their subjugation under the rule of Islamic law. Coming from an official of the ostensibly secular regime in Turkey, this is a noteworthy statement: he is essentially saying that Turkish secularism, which restricts key aspects of Islam, must be opposed.

Headline: Boko Haram crisis: ‘Bodies litter’ Nigeria’s Bama town

Headline: Report: Nigerian Troops Flee to Cameroon

Bodies remain littered on the streets of a northern Nigerian town two days after it was seized by militant Islamists, a lawmaker has told the BBC. Boko Haram fighters were patrolling the streets of Bama, preventing people from burying the dead, Ahmed Zanna said. On Wednesday, the state government denied the town had fallen. Officials said about 26,000 people had been displaced by fighting in Bama, a key town in the battle for control of Nigeria’s north-eastern Borno state. Earlier this week, the Nigeria Security Network (NSN) think-tank said the group had made “lightning territorial gains” in recent months, raising fears that the country could disintegrate like Syria and Iraq, where the Islamic State (IS) rebel group has declared a caliphate. “So many bodies litter the streets, and people are not allowed to even go and bury the dead ones. So the situation is getting worse and worse,” Mr Zanna told the BBC’s Newsday programme after speaking to a resident who fled the town. Boko Haram has captured a string of towns in northern-eastern Nigeria in recent months, fuelling concern that it could advance towards the main city, Maiduguri. Mr Zanna said it would be “catastrophic” if Boko Haram launched an assault on Maiduguri, which has a population of more than two million. “I’m begging the government to send more troops and armoury to Maiduguri,” he said. “Boko Haram do come overwhelmingly because they recruited en masse in the villages [in Borno state],” he added.

The leader of Yemen’s rebel Houthi movement called on Thursday issued a rallying cry to his supporters throughout the country. Abdel Malik al-Houthi, who heads the Ansarullah movement dominated by rebels from the Houthi tribe, called on supporters to shout their slogan from the rooftops of their homes and workplaces across Yemen at 21:00 local time on Thursday (18:00 GMT). Houthi spokesperson Osama Sari said on his Facebook page that the cry would be part of the “third phase of escalation” for the movement, and would a strong expression of the Houthis’ “rejection of the fuel subsidy cut and of the corrupt government.” A Saudi newspaper, Okaz, reported on Thursday that Houthis had threatened “military escalation” within the next two days if the government fails to respond fully to its demands. The report was echoed by a number of Yemeni news sites, but there has been no statement from Houthi officials regarding rumours of a coming military escalation. The rebels’ planned rallying cry on Thursday night comes after their rejection of an initiative put forward by President Mansour Hadi responding to some of their demands. Hadi had promised to sack the current government and draw up a new government of national unity within a week, to include representatives from the Houthi movement as well as southern politicians calling for the separation of north and south Yemen. The initiative would have left Hadi in charge of appointing the heads of “strategic” ministries including interior, defence and foreign affairs. The rebels rejected the proposal, branding it an attempt to “evade the Yemeni people’s demands.”

Meanwhile, the observer of the Holy See at the United Nations: “From the Israeli leader recognizing that Francis is a religious symbol not only for Catholics but for all mankind.

More people have now died in the 2014 Ebola epidemic than in all previous outbreaks combined (1,590, according to the WHO). WHO’s director general Margaret Chan, speaking at a special UN press briefing on the outbreak, said Wednesday that the “Ebola epidemic is the largest, and most severe, and most complex we have ever seen in the nearly 40-year history of this disease.” She added: “No one, even outbreak responders, (has) ever seen anything like it.” According to the WHO, more than 3,500 people have been infected with the deadly virus as of this week in Guinea, Sierra Leone and Liberia. The news comes as global heath officials worry that the window for bringing Ebola under control is closing fast. New estimates from global health officials indicate that it could take more than $600 million to control the epidemic’s spread.

Headline:  Rare virus might be causing central Ohio kids’ respiratory illnesses

Unusually high levels of respiratory illness have been reported this week in Nationwide Children’s Hospital’s emergency department, and samples are being sent out for testing to see whether a rare virus might be to blame. “Obviously, it’s a concern,” Dr. Mysheika Williams. Roberts, medical director and assistant commissioner at Columbus Public Health, said of the volume of respiratory cases. “What we are experiencing is unusual for us this time of year.” Last week, respiratory symptoms were the chief complaint of an average of 52 patients per day in the hospital’s emergency department. From Sunday through Tuesday of this week, respiratory symptoms were the chief complaint of an average of 73 patients per day, a 40 percent increase. Some of those illnesses might be cases of human enterovirus 68, Roberts said. That virus apparently has sickened dozens of kids in the Kansas City, Mo., area, in recent weeks. Nationwide Children’s officials said they hope the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention can confirm whether any of the local hospital’s patients with respiratory problems are HEV68 cases. It wasn’t immediately clear how many of Nationwide Children’s recent cases of respiratory illness might be caused by HEV68, nor was it clear how many possible HEV68 cases resulted in hospitalization. The hospital is testing only severely ill patients for the virus, which usually is not fatal but can cause wheezing and shortness of breath. There is no vaccine.

Headline:   “Blasphemy Challenge” Encourages People to Curse God

An internet challenge is calling upon people to post a clip of them cursing God or rejecting the Holy Spirit’s work in their lives. The So-called “Blasphemy Challenge” is a way to promote atheism, according to promoters. Promoters are even sending free DVD documentaries against Christianity to teens who complete the challenge and post their video online. “It (the blasphemy challenge) exposes the crock that is Christian doctrine,” one of the project’s organizers told Fox News. The challenge comes from Mark 3:29 when Jesus says, “whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit will never be forgiven; he is guilty of an eternal sin.” Biblically, blasphemy was a term used against the leaders who personally encountered Jesus and refused to call him Messiah and they accused him of a worker of Satan. “The online atheists and teens who are into the blasphemy challenge are almost exclusively opposed to Christianity,” said Perri Frost, a high school senior. “There are almost no complaints against other faiths. Virtually all of the atheists rail against Christianity only.”

That’s what the Berkeley City Council in California has unanimously approved, ordering medical marijuana dispensaries to donate 2 percent of their stash to patients making less than $32,000 a year. The new welfare program in the liberal-leaning city is set to launch in August 2015. The ordinance, which passed in August and is the first of its kind in the country, comes at a time when several states are debating how to handle a growing movement to legalize marijuana for both medical and recreational use. But Berkeley’s decision to effectively order weed redistribution is prompting a vocal backlash. Bishop Ron Allen, a former addict and head of the International Faith Based Coalition, told Fox News he doesn’t understand why the California city would want to dump pot on the impoverished. “It’s ludicrous, over-the-top madness,” Allen said. “Why would Berkeley City Council want to keep their poverty-stricken under-served high, in poverty and lethargic?” John Lovell, a lobbyist for the California Narcotic Officers’ Association, agrees. “Instead of taking steps to help the most economically vulnerable residents get out of that state, the city has said, ‘Let’s just get everybody high,’” Lovell told The New York Times. But others, like Mason Tvert, director of communications at the Marijuana Policy Project, say it’s a community program.

Headline: Hurricane Norbert heads up Mexico’s Pacific coast

Hurricane Norbert scattered rain along Mexico’s Pacific coast on Thursday as it headed for a brush with the Los Cabos resorts. Officials in Los Cabos ordered schools closed and said they were preparing emergency shelters, though the hurricane’s center was expected to stay offshore as it roars past. The U.S. National Hurricane Center in Miami said that Norbert had top sustained winds of 85 mph (140 kph) Thursday morning and it was centered about 155 miles (250 kilometers) south-southwest of the Baja California peninsula. Forecasters said Norbert, which reached hurricane strength Wednesday, was headed northwest at 7 mph (11 kph).
