Headline:The U.N.’s Treatment of Israel Summed Up in One Stunning Graphic
Headline: UN Chief Urges Israel to Restore Travel Permits to Gazans
It probably won’t come as a shock to know that since its formation in 2006, the United Nations Human Rights Council has passed more resolutions condemning Israel than any other country. But more eye-opening is that it’s condemned Israel more times than every other country combined. The Geneva-based U.N. Watch counted all of the resolutions out and summed up the findings in one stunning table:

Headline: PA Officially Submits Case against Israel at ICC
The Palestinian Authority has officially submitted the first batch of legal documents to the International Criminal Court in its attempt to have Israel prosecuted for “war crimes.” The Palestine Liberation Organization’s official Twitter feed posted pictures of some of the hundreds of documents it said were “just submitted” to the ICC at around 4 p.m. Thursday. It said the documents were concerning “settlements, Gaza and prisoners.” Earlier Thursday, the PA’s ambassador to the Netherlands told the Bethlehem-based Maan news agency that PA foreign minister Riyad al-Maliki was set to lead a delegation to the Hague to personally submit the documents at around 3 p.m., while acknowledging it could still be many years before the case was actually heard even if it is accepted. “It will take the ICC a long time to take action, possibly 5-10 years as this is one out of a hundred steps,” Nabil Abu Zneid said. The PA’s legal case is being drafted by “five senior international lawyers,” according to Maan. Ahead of the move, on Wednesday morning Palestinian National Initiative party head PLO Central Council member Mustafa Barghouti said the PA’s goal “is to prove war crimes were carried out so the chief prosecutor will launch an investigation.”

Headline: Vatican Signs Historic First Accord with ‘Palestine’
Headline: Vatican formally recognizes Palestine as a state
The Vatican on Friday signed an historic first accord with “Palestine,” two years after officially recognizing the Palestinian Authority (PA) as a state. The accord, a treaty covering the life and activity of the Church in Judea and Samaria, was the first since the Vatican made the controversial step of recognition in February 2013. It also recognizes the PA as having authority in eastern Jerusalem, the undivided capital of the Jewish state. The treaty, which took 15 years of negotiations to complete, was agreed in principle last month and condemned by Israel as a setback for the peace process. Signing international treaties unilaterally is a breach of the 1993 Oslo Accords which created the PA. Israel’s Foreign Ministry responded to the move, expressing its “regret regarding the Vatican decision to officially recognize the Palestinian Authority as a state, in the agreement signed today,” spokesman Emmanuel Nahshon said in a statement. “This hasty step damages the prospects for advancing a peace agreement, and harms the international effort to convince the PA to return to direct negotiations with Israel,” he said. “We also regret the one sided texts in the agreement which ignore the historic rights of the Jewish people in the Land of Israel and to the places holy to Judaism in Jerusalem.” “Israel cannot accept the unilateral determinations in the agreement which do not take into account Israel’s essential interests and the special historic status of the Jewish people in Jerusalem,” he added. “Israel will study the agreement in detail, and its implications for future cooperation between Israel and the Vatican.” The Vatican’s recognition of “Palestine” followed a November 12 vote in favor of recognition by the UN General Assembly, although the Vatican is supposed to be an apolitical religious body.

Headline: Gaza Flotilla NGO Funded by French Government
Headline: First ship in Gaza-bound flotilla sets sail from Crete
One of the NGOs behind the latest anti-Israel flotilla to Gaza is funded by the French government, Arutz Sheva has learned. The Platform of French NGOs for Palestine (Plateforme des ONG françaises pour la Palestine) is among the groups supporting the Freedom Flotilla III, which seeks to directly defy the Israeli government’s blockade of the Hamas-ruled enclave. On Friday the Platform announced that the latest boat to join the flotilla, The Marianne of Gothenburg, had set sail from Sicily and was set to join four other vessels carrying some 70 anti-Zionist activists en route for Gaza. Among those on board will be former Tunisian president Moncef Marzouki, Spanish MEP Ana Maria Miranda Paza and Arab-Israeli MK Basel Ghattas (Joint List), whose planned presence has triggered widespread controversy in Israel. But another potentially controversial aspect of the flotilla that has been largely overlooked is the role played by European government-funded NGOs. The Platform of French NGOs for Palestine is an umbrella organization for more than 40 anti-Israel groups, and is very active in the so-called BDS (Boycott Divestment and Sanctions) movement against Israel. Among other things, the Platform demands an end to all agreements and relations between the European Union and Israel. It is also a regular recipient of French taxpayers’ money, via the French Development Agency (Agence Française de Développement or AFD), a public aid agency which works on behalf of the French government to carry out “sustainable development programs” around the world.

Headline: Israel Freezes Defense Aid Talks with US Pending Iran Deal
A joint meeting of senior representatives in the Defense Ministry, Foreign Ministry and Prime Minister’s Office resulted in the decision to temporarily suspend dialogue with the United States regarding defense aid to the Jewish state. The freeze will remain in place until the conclusion of talks between Iran and P5+1 world powers on Tehran’s nuclear program, if not later. The main reason for suspending the dialogue, officials told Walla! News, is the mounting tension between the White House and Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu’s government. According to a senior defense official, who confirmed the report, freezing talks now will allow Israel to present a new request for defense materials after a deal with Iran has been finalized. The official asserted that Israel is waiting for negotiations between Iran and Western powers to conclude, to see what exactly the US signs, and from there make demands for maintaining Israel’s security in the region. Other officials though have suggested Israel may prolong the freeze until a new US president is inaugurated in early 2017, thereby avoiding contact with current US President Barack Obama, whose relationship with Israel has been contentious. The pressure of a looming nuclear deal with Iran has also begun to affect US officials.

Headline: Gazan Drone Breaches Israeli Airspace
Headline: Terrorist Killed in Gun Battle with IDF Soldiers
An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) from Gaza, apparently belonging to the Hamas terrorist organization that rules the coastal enclave, breached Israeli airspace on Thursday afternoon. The drone crossed over the security border in southern Gaza, but soon thereafter fell to the ground even before the IDF decided whether or not to shoot it out of the sky. IDF engineering corps forces retrieved the vehicle in order to inspect it and investigate its capabilities. The Israeli Air Force (IAF) emphasized that throughout the security incident the drone was being closely monitored and posed no direct threat. Fighter jets were launched and rushed to the area out of fear that the drone may have been armed and intended to conduct an attack, or else was conducting surveillance and gathering information in preparation for an attack. However the drone fell to the ground without a shot being fired. Meanwhile, An Arab terrorist tried to conduct a shooting attack on an IDF checkpoint in the Jordan Valley region on Friday. The terrorist was shot by IDF forces soon after he pulled out his weapon and started firing, and he was seriously wounded. The terrorist later died of his wounds. No wounds were reported among the IDF forces. An initial investigation of the incident reveals that the terrorist got out of a vehicle and opened fire at the IDF troops, although miraculously none were wounded.

Headline: ISIS in Jerusalem Threatens Christians
A flier published by in the name of the brutal Islamic State (ISIS) terrorist organization was put up around eastern Jerusalem on Thursday, in what is thought to be the first such announcement in the Israeli capital. The flier threatens Christians in the area with “revenge,” and is signed by the organization “ISIS Palestine,” reports Channel 10. ISIS does not have an operational presence in Israel, but support for the group among Islamists is on the rise, with dozens of Arab citizens leaving for Syria and Iraq to fight for the jihadist organization after ISIS members took part in Hamas’s terror war against Israel last summer. An ISIS-inspired cell was nabbed in Hevron in Judea last November, while in Gaza an affiliate of the group has clashed with Hamas and repeatedly fired rockets at Israel to spark fighting between Israel and Hamas.

Hezbollah-planted land mines and mortar attacks left at least nine Nusra Front militants dead outside an east Lebanon border village Friday, a source close to Hezbollah told The Daily Star. The incident occurred on Syrian territory on the eastern outskirts of Maaraboun, which is southwest of the border enclave of Tfail, in southern Qalamoun. Media reports said militants from Al-Qaeda’s Syrian affiliate were attempting to carry out an attack on Hezbollah positions in Maaraboun when they passed through a minefield. The mines managed to kill and wound a number of militants. The sound of the blasts alerted nearby Hezbollah fighters of the ambush attempt. Hezbollah then shelled the area of the militants, killing and wounding several other militants.

Islamic State fighters have attacked the Syrian city of Kobane, months after being driven out in a symbolic battle that made international headlines. They detonated car bombs and launched an assault. Kurdish media say at least 50 civilians have been killed, including 20 in a nearby village. The IS attack on Kobane began with militants detonating a car bomb, followed by an assault from dozens of fighters from a number of directions. There are reports that some may have hidden themselves among returning refugees, and disguised themselves by wearing Kurdish militia uniforms. A reporter with the privately-owned Kurdish television station NRT said they infiltrated the city at dawn “and then went on a killing spree”, targeting people in their homes as they slept. Hours later two more car bombs exploded. In the nearby Kurdish village of Bakha Botan, at least 20 civilians – among them women and children – were reportedly shot dead by IS fighters. At least eight IS militants and a number of Kurdish fighters have been killed in the fighting in Kobane, activists say. One senior local official told BBC Persian that the situation in Kobane itself was now “under control” but clashes were continuing on its eastern and northern outskirts.

Syria Headline: Military Situation in Northern Syria
ISIS launched a series of spectacular counterattacks on June 24-25 in a two-pronged line of effort targeting Kurdish and regime forces in northern Syria. ISIS conducted a wave of suicide attacks in Hasaka City in northeastern Syria on June 24, detonating two SVBIEDs as well as three or four SVESTs targeting Kurdish internal security and regime-held checkpoints in a move likely intended to soften the city’s defenses. ISIS later launched an offensive against Hasaka City on June 25, detonating at least one VBIED and seizing the regime-held southwestern neighborhoods of the city. ISIS’s advance allegedly received support from tribal fighters previously aligned with the Assad regime. Simultaneously, approximately thirty to forty ISIS fighters disguised in Kurdish YPG and Free Syrian Army (FSA) rebel uniforms infiltrated the Kurdish border town of Ayn al-Arab (Kobani) on June 25, detonating two SVBIEDs at the border crossing to Turkey and clashing with YPG forces.

Syria’s official SANA news agency said “terrorists hit neighbourhoods of Daraa city with mortar rounds and gas canister bombs,” adding that there were reports of casualties. “Army units foiled attempts by terrorist groups to attack several military positions in Daraa province destroying several armoured vehicles and killing dozens of terrorists,” state television said. It made no mention of fighting inside Daraa city, parts of which are already under rebel control.

Security and medical officials in Iraq say at least eight people have been killed and 25 others injured in five separate bomb explosions and a shooting incident in and around the capital, Baghdad. A police source, speaking on condition of anonymity, said two civilians lost their lives and eight others sustained injuries when a bombing attack struck the Sha’ab neighborhood of northern Baghdad on Thursday, Arabic-language satellite television network al-Baghdadia reported. Security forces immediately cordoned off the site of the attack, and ambulance workers ferried the wounded to a nearby hospital. Elsewhere in the capital’s western neighborhood of Baiyaa, an improvised explosive device exploded near car showrooms, killing one person and injuring seven others. Two people were also killed and five others wounded when a bomb placed inside a garbage can went off in the industrial park of Bismayah, situated about 10 kilometers (six miles) southeast of Baghdad. Also on Thursday, a bomb detonated in the capital’s southern neighborhood of al-Mahmoudiyah, killing a child and injuring two passersby.

Headline: Bloody Friday: ISIS Celebrates Terror Attacks In France, Tunisia, Kuwait
Headline: Tunisia attack on Sousse beach ‘kills 37’
Headline: Muslim Terrorist Beheads Man in France Attack
Headline: Kuwait Shia mosque blast death toll ‘rises to 25’
ISIS extremists celebrated terror attacks today in France, Tunisia and Kuwait, heralding the killings as “Bloody Friday” in discussions across secretive online forums and social media, a Vocativ analysis reveals. “This Friday is a holiday for the Muslims,” one ISIS supporter wrote, while many others used a hashtag praising the “lone wolves” around the world and celebrating the day as “Bloody Friday.” ISIS did not claim responsibility for all of the attacks. The worst unfolded at a luxury resort in Tunisia where an attacker blew himself up at the Hotel Riu Imperial Marhaba in the city of Sousse. Gunmen also opened fire on guests of the hotel, killing several and leaving others face down in the sand near their lounge chairs. At least 27 were killed at the resort and officials cautioned the number could rise, according to the Tunisian Ministry of the Interior. In recent months ISIS increased its activities in Tunisia and claimed responsibility for several attacks there, including the assault on the Bardo Museum last March that killed 22 people, most of them European tourists. In southeast France, two people entered a factory of a U.S.-owned gas company and detonated gas containers by ramming a car into them, leaving one dead and several wounded. Local reports say a decapitated head was found at the entry to the factory, covered in Arabic script. A suspected ISIS flag also was reportedly found at the scene. At about the same time, an ISIS suicide bomber blew himself up at a packed Shi’ite Muslim mosque in Kuwait city during Friday prayers, killing at least 15 people according to local reports. ISIS released an official claim of responsibility for the Kuwait attack, and social media users uploaded graphic images of dead bodies and victims were wounded in the attacks. As many as 2,000 people were thought to be in the mosque at the time of the explosion. The attacker in France is still unknown, and ISIS has not claimed responsibility for the attack in Tunisia. Regardless, its supporters began to celebrate the three attacks on forums and social media.

Headline: Kurds, Ankara trade accusations after Kobane massacre
Turkey on Thursday rejected as “black propaganda” claims that Islamic State (ISIS) jihadists crossed from Turkey to carry out deadly bombings and raids on the Syrian town of Kobane, AFP reports. Dozens of civilians and fighters on both sides were killed in a day of violence as ISIS launched car bomb attacks on the Turkish border crossing adjacent to Kobane and battled Kurdish fighters in the city. Turkish officials said four victims had died in Turkish hospitals while 135 injured received treatment on the Turkish side of the border. Claims circulating on the Internet suggested several cars loaded with ISIS members passed through the Mursitpinar border crossing in Turkey to make their way into Kobane. “The claim that Daesh militants passed through the Turkish border is entirely a lie and part of a black propaganda,” Deputy Prime Minister Numan Kurtulmus said in a message on Twitter, using an Arabic term for ISIS. The governor’s office in the border region of Sanliurfa said its information “proves” ISIS members infiltrated Kobane from Jarablus in Syria. “Turkish armed forces are monitoring our borders 24 hours as part of security measures,” it added, according to AFP. The Turkish government said video footage taken from Turkish border security units and broadcast by the state-run Anatolia news agency showed a bomb-laden car did not pass through the Turkish border crossing. Kurdish activists, however, accused Turkey on social media of assisting the IS group, with the hashtag #TerroristTurkey becoming a trending topic on Twitter. The accusations come amid growing tensions between Syrian Kurds and Turkey, the report noted.

Libya’s warring factions arrived Thursday in Morocco for a fresh round of U.N.-brokered peace talks aimed at putting an end to months of fighting in the stricken North African state.
The talks involving rival parliaments are expected to begin on Friday, as U.N. envoy Bernardino Leon struggles to bring the factions to agree steps aimed at forming a national unity government. The U.N. has tried for months to broker a compromise in Libya, which descended into lawlessness after the 2011 NATO-backed overthrow of veteran autocrat Muammar Qaddafi. The oil-rich nation has rival governments and parliaments, and jihadist groups and militants have seized on the chaos to make strategic gains.
The Tripoli-based parliament was set up by the Fajr Libya (Libya Dawn) militia alliance that seized the capital last year to contest the legitimacy of the Tobruk-based internationally recognized legislature.

Others were hiding from sweltering heat under roadside trees and umbrellas. Following Monday’s unsuccessful attempt to end the protest by force, authorities have taken a wait-and-see approach and police didn’t interfere with the protest. There was no end in sight, however, to the worst unrest the ex-Soviet nation has seen in years as the government rejected the protesters’ demand to annul the price hike. The country’s power grid is controlled by a Russian electricity giant, and Moscow watched the protest with concern.

Shelling by Yemen’s Houthi militia killed four soldiers from Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates stationed on Yemen’s border with the kingdom, Saudi state media reported on Thursday. The Houthis have stepped up attacks on Saudi border posts in recent weeks, despite three months of bombardment by a Saudi-led coalition intent on restoring Yemen’s government in exile. Two soldiers from the Royal Saudi Land Forces, one from the kingdom’s Border Guards, and a UAE officer were killed on Wednesday in three incidents along the border, a mostly mountainous area. The Houthis and their allies in Yemen’s army have managed to hold most of the populated western part of the country against armed groups in Aden, Taiz, Dhalea and Marib backed by coalition air strikes. But a spate of bombings in the Houthi-controlled capital continued on Thursday, as a remote controlled bomb detonated outside the state news agency according to residents, killing a Houthi fighter and wounding two others.

Apostasy & Alternative Lifestyles Amos 8:11, 1 Timothy 4:1-3 & Romans1:26-27 “Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons, 2 speaking lies in hypocrisy, having their own conscience seared with a hot iron, 3 forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from foods which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth.” (1 Timothy) “Behold, the days are coming,” says the Lord God, “That I will send a famine on the land, Not a famine of bread, Nor a thirst for water, But of hearing the words of the Lord.” (Amos) “For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due”(Romans)
Headline: Supreme Court rules in favor of same-sex marriage nationwide
In a landmark opinion, a divided Supreme Court ruled Friday that states cannot ban same-sex marriage, establishing a new civil right and handing gay rights advocates a victory that until very recently would have seemed unthinkable. In a 5-4 ruling, Justice Anthony Kennedy wrote for the majority with the four liberal justices. Each of the four conservative justices wrote their own dissent. Nearly 46 years to the day after a riot at New York’s Stonewall Inn ushered in the modern gay rights movement, the decision could settle one of the major civil rights fights of this era. The language of Kennedy’s opinion spoke eloquently of the most fundamental values of family, love and liberty. “No union is more profound than marriage, for it embodies the highest ideals of love, fidelity, devotion, sacrifice and family,” Kennedy wrote. “In forming a marital union, two people become something greater than they once were.” “Their hope,” Kennedy wrote, “is not to be condemned to live in loneliness, excluded from one of civilization’s oldest institutions. They ask for equal dignity in the eyes of the law. The Constitution grants them that right.” Kennedy has written the opinion in significant gay rights cases and when he uttered the key sentence that same-sex couples should be able to exercise the right to marry in all states, people in the Court’s public gallery broke into smiles and some wiped tears from their eyes.

The sun will not beat upon them, nor any scorching heat.” ( Revelation 7: 16) “For behold, the day is coming,Burning like an oven, And all the proud, yes, all who do wickedly will be stubble. And the day which is coming shall burn them up,” Says the Lord of hosts, “That will leave them neither root nor branch” (Malachi 4:1) Prophecy Sign: Drought Jeremiah 50:38 & Isaiah 42:15 “A drought is against her waters, and they will be dried up.

Headline: California wildfires force residents from homes in two towns
Residents of two California towns were under mandatory evacuation orders on Thursday as a burgeoning wildfire swept through drought-parched mountains, officials said. The fire in the mountains of San Bernardino County east of Los Angeles was among scores of wildfires raging along the U.S. West Coast, from Alaska through California, in areas hit by drought and suffering record-low snowpack. In Idaho, officials issued a health advisory tied to extreme heat, as weather forecasters predicted record-breaking highs. The northern end of the Sacramento Valley in California was also unusually hot with 111 Fahrenheit (43.9 Celsius) reported in Redding. In Southern California, firefighters were losing ground to the long-burning San Bernardino County blaze. It swelled to 23,199 acres (9,388 hectares) in the face of gusting winds, according to fire-tracking website InciWeb, which pulls information from multiple agencies. The blaze, now nine days old, prompted evacuation orders late on Wednesday for the towns of Burns Canyon and Rimrock and a voluntary evacuation for Pioneertown as containment dropped to 21 percent. The fire had been about one-third contained the day before. In Los Angeles County, roughly 1,000 residents in Santa Clarita were ordered from their homes late on Wednesday as a hard-charging fire spread across some 350 acres (140 hectares) in a matter of hours, the county fire department said. Those evacuation orders were lifted on Wednesday night and the fire was about 60 percent contained by Thursday morning, the department said. In southern Oregon, firefighters had contained 60 percent of a 5,341-acre (2,161-hectare) fire in Cave Junction that has closed forest lands but not damaged property. Another 21 fires in Alaska ignited overnight, making a total of nearly 300 active blazes, according to the state’s Division of Forestry.

Headline: Gigantic Black Hole Wakes Up After 26-Year Sleep
A supermassive black hole that was dormant for 26 years has once again begun devouring material from other the star in its binary system, according to the European Space Agency (ESA). V404 Cygni, a system in the Milky Way galaxy comprised of a black hole and a star orbiting each other, has again started emitting X-rays and gamma rays after a 26-year sleep, ESA reported. Erik Kuulkers, a project scientist at ESA, explained that “the behavior of this source is extraordinary at the moment, with repeated bright flashes of light on time scales shorter than an hour, something rarely seen in other black hole systems.” “In these moments, it becomes the brightest object in the X-ray sky — up to fifty times brighter than the Crab Nebula, normally one of the brightest sources in the high-energy sky,” he said. The V404 Cygni system is located almost 8,000 light years away in the Cygnus (Swan) constellation of the Milky Way. The black hole’s sudden awakening activity was first spotted by the Burst Alert Telescope on board NASA’s Swift satellite on June 15. The gamma ray burst from the black hole was automatically detected by Swift’s X-ray optics, something that was also tracked by MAXI (Monitor of All-sky X-ray Image), a sensor on the Kibo Japanese Experiment Module of the International Space Station.

Headline: Indonesian volcano spews towering gas cloud
Indonesia’s Mount Sinabung spewed searing ash and gas 4 kilometres into the sky Thursday, officials said, as the number of people displaced by the latest round of eruptions exceeded 10,000. “There were two strong eruptions today and the ash travelled far to the east,” said Subur Tambun, chief of the disaster management agency in Karo district in North Sumatra province, where the volcano is located. The volcano erupted 11 times on Wednesday, sending ash to the provincial capital Medan. There have been no fatalities since the volcano began its latest period of activity early this month, he said. Indonesian President Joko Widodo this week arranged 6 billion rupiah (US$450,000, RM1.6 million ) to help local authorities cope with the displaced. The National Disaster Management Agency said more than 10,000 had fled their homes and more than 6,000 of them have to be relocated for good because they live too close to the volcano. The relocation is estimated to cost around 600 billion rupiah, said agency spokesman Sutopo Purwo Nugroho.
