Headline: Palestinian High Court suspends municipal elections
Headline: PA court to make final decision about elections on September 21
The Palestinian Authority municipal elections in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip have been suspended, putting the holding of the long-awaited contests in jeopardy. The PA High Court of Justice said it suspended the elections, scheduled for October 8, because of the exclusion of Jerusalem from the electoral process, and amid concerns about the legality of local courts in Gaza. “In light of the deprivation of Jerusalem and its suburbs’ citizens of their electoral rights, and [concerns about] the legality of decisions taken by courts in the Gaza Strip… We rule to suspend temporarily the Palestinian government’s decision to hold elections,” said a copy of Thursday’s ruling published on Wafa, the official Palestinian news site. Israel informed the PA in July that it will not allow it to hold elections in any part of Jerusalem. The PA High Court will hold another hearing regarding the future of the elections on September 21.

***do you find it a coincidence that this news came out the day after it was discovered that Abbas worked for the KGB? Not forgetting Russia’s current Mideast envoy, the one currently trying to arrange a Netanyahu-Abbas meeting in Moscow, was stationed in Damascus at the same time as Abbas.

Headline: Israeli UN Envoy: Jew-Hatred At ‘Highest Level of Our Lifetimes’
Jew hatred and demonization of Israel are at “the highest level of our lifetimes,” Israel’s ambassador to the United Nations said at a high-level forum on anti-Semitism held on Wednesday at the UN’s headquarters in New York. “Over 1/3 of European Jews are afraid to wear a yarmulke or Star of David in public,” Danny Danon said. “More than half of French Jews have considered emigrating because they don’t feel safe living as Jews in France. Today we hear things about Jews and the Jewish people that we thought belonged to the pages of history. … Anti-Semitism is returning to everyday life without shame.” Danon also said that social media presents a “new kind of threat” in that anti-Semitism goes global very quickly. “We are living in a new era and we face a new kind of anti-Semitism,” Danon said. “Using the tools of online social networks to demonize the Jewish people and the Jewish state, this is Anti-Semitism 2.0.” “The enemies of the Jewish people are using the tools of modern technology to target and harass Jews around the world,” he said, adding that the modern world makes life easier for anti-Semites since “all you need is a wireless connection, a Facebook account, and a deep hatred for the Jewish people.”

Headline: Israeli military expects Islamic State attack on its southern border ‘within six months’
Israel is bracing for an Islamic State (Isil) terror attack along its southern border with Egypt within the next six months, a senior Israeli military officer has warned. Wilayat Sinai, the jihadist group’s affiliate in the Sinai desert, has been stealing armored vehicles and anti-tank missiles from Egypt’s military and Israeli expects the weapons will soon be turned against its forces on the Egyptian border. The Israeli officer, who spoke on condition of anonymity, told The Telegraph that Wilayat Sinai had stolen at least one Egyptian M60 battle tank and had amassed a supply of Russian-made Kornet missiles, which can strike targets more than three miles away. “It could happen today, tomorrow, in a month but within the next six months we will come into an engagement with Wilayat Sinai,” the officer said. “In the next six months they will try to carry out an attack and try to do something against Israel.”

“Do not keep silent, O God! Do not hold Your peace, And do not be still, O God! 2 For behold, Your enemies make a tumult; And those who hate You have lifted up their head. 3 They have taken crafty counsel against Your people, And consulted together against Your sheltered ones. 4 They have said, “Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation, That the name of Israel may be remembered no more.” (Psalm 83)
Saudi Arabia
Headline: Crowds rally in Iran against Saudi Arabia ahead of hajj
Thousands of Iranians have taken to the streets to protest against Saudi Arabia ahead of this year’s hajj pilgrimage. The demonstrators shouted “Death to Al Saud!” — a reference to the kingdom’s ruling family. State media reported similar protests across the country after Friday prayers. Iranians won’t be attending this year’s pilgrimage as diplomatic ties between Shiite power and the Sunni-ruled kingdom remain severed amid tensions between the two Mideast nations. Iran recently stepped up criticism of Saudi Arabia over its handling of the stampede and crush during last year’s hajj. Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei even said Saudi Arabia “murdered” hajj pilgrims who were injured in the disaster.

Syria Headline: Turkish tank hit by missile in northern Syria, three soldiers killed
Three Turkish soldiers were killed and four others were wounded during an attack by the Islamic State of Iraq and Levant (ISIL) on two Turkish tanks late on Sept. 6 as Turkish forces push deeper into Syrian soil. The attack took place near the Syrian town of al-Rai on the 14th day of Turkey’s Euphrates Shield operation in northern Syria, the Turkish military announced Sept. 6. Two soldiers were killed on the spot and five were injured when ISIL missiles hit the two tanks in the Wuquf village, the military said. One of the wounded soldiers later died in hospital despite all attempts to save his life, lifting the death toll to three, the military said. Two members of the Free Syrian Army (FSA), which is backed by the Turkish military in their advance on ISIL in Syria, were also killed while two others were wounded.

Syria Headline: Putin-Erdogan deal for Syria is ME exit for Obama
According to debkafile’s intelligence and Mid East sources, Putin virtually shut the door on further cooperation with the United States in Syria. He highhandedly informed Obama that he now holds all the high cards for controlling the Syrian conflict, whereas Washington was just about out of the game. Putin picked up the last cards, our sources disclose, in a secret deal with Erdogan for Russian-Turkish collaboration in charting the next steps in the Middle East. The G20 therefore, instead of promoting new US-Russian understanding, gave the impetus to a new Russian-Turkish partnership.
Erdogan raked in instant winnings: Before he left China, he had pocketed Putin’s nod to grab a nice, 4,000-sq.km slice of northern Syria, as a “security zone” under the control of the Turkish army and air force, with Russian non-interference guaranteed. This Turkish zone would include the Syrian towns of Jarablus, Manjib, Azaz and Al-Bab. Ankara would reciprocate by withdrawing its support from the pro-US and pro-Saudi rebel groups fighting the Assad army and its allies in the area north of Aleppo. Turkey’s concession gave Putin a selling-point to buy the Syrian ruler assent to Erdogan’s project. Ankara’s selling-point to the West was that the planned security zone would provide a safe haven for Syrian refugees and draw off some of the outflow perturbing Europe. It now turns out that, just as the Americans sold the Syrian Kurds down the river to Turkey (when Vice President Joe Biden last month ordered them to withdraw from their lands to the eastern bank of the Euphrates River or lose US support), so too are the Turks now dropping the Syrian rebels they supported in the mud by re-branding them as “terrorists.” The head of this NATO nation has moreover gone behind America’s back for a deal with the Russian ruler on how to proceed with the next steps of the Syrian conflict.

Syria Headline: ISIS launches new offensive in southwest Deir Ezzor
The Islamic State of Iraq and Al-Sham (ISIS) launched a new offensive in the Deir Ezzor Governorate on Friday, targeting the Syrian Arab Army’s 137th Artillery Brigade headquarters and Tal Kroum. ISIS began the assault by storming the southwestern perimeter of Tal Kroum, resulting in a fierce battle with the Syrian Armed Forces that is still ongoing at the moment. Meanwhile, west of the 137th Brigade’s HQ, another ISIS unit attempted to bypass the Syrian Arab Army’s defenses along the main road leading to this strategic military installation; however, they were subsequently repelled after a short battle this morning. According to a military source from the 137th Brigade, their forces destroyed 3 armored vehicles that belonged to the Islamic State near Tal Kroum, while also killing another 11 militants that were attempting to infiltrate their positions.

Iraq Headline: U.S. sends 500 more troops to help fight 4,500 Islamic State militants in Mosul
The United States has increased its deployed forces by more than 500 troops to assist Iraqi security forces in the operation to claim Mosul from Islamic State control. Col. John Dorrian, spokesman for the United States’ Operation Inherent Resolve mission against the Islamic State, on Thursday said the increase in deployed troops is to help Iraq seize the Islamic State’s Iraqi stronghold, Mosul — where he estimates there are up to 4,500 IS militants remaining. U.S. President Barack Obama and Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi both hope to seize Mosul before the year’s end, but Dorrian said the operation is “a very tough battle.” The Islamic State, also known as ISIS, ISIL and Daesh, captured Mosul as part of a land grab in 2014 that saw to the militant group’s peak in terms of land acquisition. The battle to directly capture Mosul has been held off, though Iraqi security forces, aided by the U.S.-led anti-Islamic State coalition, have recaptured surrounding areas and targeted IS positions for months. “Prime Minister Abadi has come out and said that he would like to get this done within the year, and we are going to be at the Iraqi security force’s side and be there to try to help pursue that,” Dorrian said. Dorrian said Iraqi security forces are leading the battle for Mosul and that the United States’ role is to train and assist the soldiers, with the aid of airstrikes and special operations missions.

At least 8 people were killed and 14 others were wounded in a rocket attack in northern Baghlan province of Afghanistan, local officials said Friday. The incident took place late on Thursday afternoon in the new city of Baghlan Markazi district after a mortar round landed in the area. Provincial public health officials confirmed 8 civilians including a woman and two children were among those killed.

See that you are not troubled; for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.” Revelation 6:3-4 speaks of the fiery red horse given power to make men slay one another and Revelation 6:8 speaks again of this red horse in conjunction with the pale horse of Death and Hades, as the one that has the power to kill by sword.

Headline: UN Security Council to hold closed door meeting on N.Korea’s nuclear test
North Korea drew global condemnation after conducting its fifth nuclear test on Friday, the anniversary of the reclusive nation’s founding, and said it was now able to produce miniaturized nuclear arms. In a statement on state-run television, Pyongyang said no radiation was leaked in the blast. The official Korean Central News Agency said the detonation of a nuclear warhead showed the regime has the ability to attach atomic weapons to rockets. “The standardization of the nuclear warhead will enable the DPRK to produce at will and as many as it wants a variety of smaller, lighter and diversified nuclear warheads of higher strike power,” KCNA said, using the acronym for North Korea. “This has definitely put on a higher level the DPRK’s technology of mounting nuclear warheads on ballistic rockets.” The test drew opprobrium from world leaders, including South Korean President Park Geun Hye and U.S. President Barack Obama, and prompted an emergency meeting of the United Nations Security Council Friday in New York. The blast set off an artificial earthquake around 9:30 a.m. Seoul time, with the defense ministry saying the explosion was 10 kilotons. The United States Geological Survey put the quake magnitude at 5.3. The Pentagon said it will be deploying an aircraft to the region to collect air samples that can help determine the nature of the explosion.

Headline: Russia Holds Large-scale Military Drills in Crimea
Russia on Friday deployed cruise missiles, multiple rocket launchers, tanks and its latest anti-aircraft system at massive military drills in Crimea. Russia annexed the Crimean peninsula from Ukraine in March 2014 and since then has sent thousands of troops and heavy weaponry there. The Russian defense ministry invited dozens of journalists Friday to a remote firing range at the Black Sea coast to display elaborate war games which involved paratroopers, tanks, cruise missiles launched from a submarine and the S-400 anti-aircraft missile system. The drills, which began across southern Russia and Crimea earlier this week and have involved a total of over 120,000 troops, are some of the largest exercises Russia has held for years. The chief of the Russian General Staff, Valery Gerasimov, insisted in emailed comments that there have never been more than 12,500 troops involved in the drills at a given moment, which means that Russia did not violate any international treaties.

Al-Qaeda chief Ayman al-Zawahiri threatened the U.S. that the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks will be repeated “thousands of times,” in a video marking the 15th anniversary of the deadly assault. Addressing the United States in a video message posted Thursday on YouTube, Zawahiri blamed 9/11 on “your crimes against us.” He said that if these continue, 9/11 “will be repeated thousands of times.” In the video, Zawahiri cited Washington’s policies towards Arab and Muslim countries, its “occupation” of lands in their countries, and support for their “criminal and corrupt” governments. Zawahiri also urged extremists to unite and urged African Americans to convert to Islam to “save” them from U.S. laws which he said are controlled by “the white majority.”

Headline: Markets Tumble Around the World
The S&P 500 dropped 1.9 percent to 2,140.11 at 2:27 p.m. in New York. The rout has halted a period of calm that saw the index no more than 1 percent in either direction for 43 days. It also sent the gauge below its average price during the past 50 days for the first time since July 6. The Dow Jones Industrial Average lost 302.49 points, or 1.6 percent, to 18,177.42. Tranquility that has enveloped global markets for more than two months is being upended as central banks start to question the benefits of further monetary easing, sending government debt, stocks and emerging-market assets to the biggest declines since June. The dollar jumped. The S&P 500 Index tumbled 2 percent in its biggest drop since the Brexit vote emerging-market assets and global equities fell the most since Britain voted to secede from the European Union. The yield on the 10-year Treasury note jumped to the highest since June and the greenback almost erased a weekly slide as a Federal Reserve official warned waiting too long to raise rates threatened to overheat the economy. German 10-year yields rose to zero for the first time since July after the European Central Bank downplayed the need for more stimulus. Fed Bank of Boston President Eric Rosengren’s comments moved him firmly into the hawkish camp, sending the odds for a rate hike this year above 60 percent. He spoke a day after ECB President Mario Draghi played down the prospect of an increase in asset purchases, while DoubleLine Capital Chief Investment Officer Jeffrey Gundlach said it’s time to prepare for higher rates. “This is a big, big moment,” Gundlach said during a webcast Thursday. “Interest rates have bottomed. They may not rise in the near term as I’ve talked about for years. But I think it’s the beginning of something and you’re supposed to be defensive.”

Headline: Super-gonorrhoea outbreak could be out of control
An outbreak of super-gonorrhoea in the UK is out of control and efforts to stop it have been unsuccessful, health officials have warned. It is feared the sexually transmitted disease may be becoming increasingly resistant to treatment, prompting concerns further rapid spread could occur. In April, it emerged an outbreak of so-called ‘super-gonorrhoea’ had occurred in Leeds, with cases also noted in the West Midlands, London and southern-England. It began among heterosexual couples but has since been spread among men who have sex with men (MSM). In a report issued today by health agency Public Health England, the group warned: “The outbreak of HL-AziR gonorrhoea in England persists. There have been 17 cases of HL-AziR gonorrhoea reported to date in 2016 compared to 15 cases for the same time period in 2015. Between November 2014 and August 2016 there have been a total of 48 confirmed and two probable cases. “The potential for rapid spread of HL-AziR N. gonorrhoeae among high risk sexual networks including MSM is of particular concern.”
