Leaked Emails Show Hillary Clinton Campaign Chief Discussing ‘Revolution’ Against Bishop

WASHINGTON — The chairman of Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign appears to discuss with a progressive figure whether it is possible to “plant the seeds of the revolution” against the U.S. bishops and their stances, a leaked email hacked from a private account revealed.

The email exchange, entitled “Catholic Spring,” also suggests that two organizations — Catholics in Alliance for the Common Good and Catholics United — were created for such a purpose.

“There needs to be a Catholic Spring, in which Catholics themselves demand the end of a middle ages dictatorship and the beginning of a little democracy and respect for gender equality in the Catholic church,” wrote Sandy Newman, president of the Washington-based political action organization Voices for Progress, in the first of two emails in the February 2012 exchange.

The recipient of the email, John Podesta, is Catholic and a graduate of Georgetown University. He currently serves as the head of Hillary Clinton’s campaign for presidency. Previously, Podesta served as president and CEO of the think tank Center for American Progress, and as the chief of staff for President Bill Clinton. http://www.ncregister.com/daily-news/leaked-emails-show-hillary-clinton-campaign-chief-discussing-revolution-aga

Headline:     UNESCO to vote on resolutions ignoring Jewish ties to Temple Mount

UNESCO is slated to vote twice this month on Palestinian initiated resolutions that ignore Jewish ties to its most holy religious site of the Temple Mount and the Western Wall area in Jerusalem.
The first of these votes will be taken on Thursday or Friday of this week by the 58-member Executive Board of the United Nations Educational Scientific and Cultural Organization in Paris. In advance of that vote, Israel’s Mission to UNESCO in Paris, has given board members and international diplomats a brochure detailing the deep historical connections Judaism has to those sites, which are also holy to Christianity and Islam. “These facts and evidences will leave no doubt, and without undermining other connection of other religions to the holy places in Jerusalem, of the deepest and longest Jewish presence in Jerusalem since ancient times,” Israel’s Ambassador to UNESCO Carmel Shama-Hacohen wrote. “Every attempt to distort the history and harm the above mentioned relations of the Jewish people and Jerusalem, is an attempt to rewrite the history in a dangerous, unfair and one-sided manner,” he said. Among the evidence listed in the brochure is a 9th Century BC inscription referring to the House of David, an 8th Century BC seal from King Hezekiah, and a stone etching of the Jewish Menorah from the year 66 AD found in Jerusalem.

Headline:     Report: Obama Administration ‘Manufacturing Crisis’ With Israel

With its eyes on the potential launch of an Israeli-Palestinian peace initiative after next month’s presidential election, the Obama administration is “manufacturing a crisis” over settlement construction, to exert diplomatic pressure on the Jewish state, The Weekly Standard reported on Sunday, citing sources in Congress and the American Jewish community. Last week, the administration raised many eyebrows with its unusually strident criticism of Israel’s settlement policies following the approval of dozens of new homes in the West Bank. One congressional source told The Weekly Standard that the administration had been “waiting for an opening” to hit hard against Israel, and an official with an American-Jewish organization was quoted as saying the administration “wants to be able to say the Israelis forced them to act.” The vociferous anti-settlement rhetoric used by White House and State Department spokespersons was shortly followed by the publication of a New York Times editorial board op-ed calling on the administration to back a UN Security Council resolution that would outline the parameters of a two-state solution. In response to that op-ed, Mark Dubowitz — executive director of the Foundation for Defense of Democracies (FDD) think thank — tweeted on Friday, “Obama is laying the groundwork for UN & EU sanctions on Israel. I’ve seen this playbook before.” Later the same day, Dubowitz took aim at the administration again, tweeting, “Unlike with Iran, all options are on Obama’s table to pound Israel.” As reported by The Algemeiner extensively, many observers are expecting a US-led peace drive during the lame-duck period between the presidential election on Nov. 8 and the inauguration of Obama’s successor on Jan. 20.

While the Temple was standing, thousands would gather to witness the holy offerings and pray for atonement. Though the Temple was not built this year, many significant events have brought us closer than ever before to its prophesied rebuilding, and all over the world, Jews are praying that this time next year, the Yom Kippur service will take place in the Third Temple! ~photos~

Headline: Nasrallah: Saudi leadership pushing country to abyss

Hezbollah’s leader blasted Saudi Arabia over its military campaign in Yemen days after an airstrike conducted by the Riyadh-led coalition killed over 100 people in the conflict-stricken country. “The Saudi leadership is pushing their country to the abyss,” Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah said Tuesday night at a ceremony on the eve of Ashura, a holy day revered by Shiite Muslims. Nasrallah, who delivered his speech in a rare public appearance, rebuked Saudi Arabia for its campaign against the Houthis of Yemen, who are backed by Iran. On Saturday, an airstrike by the Saudi coalition killed over 140 people and injured hundreds of others at the funeral for Sheikh Ali al-Rawishan, the father of the interior minister in the government run by the Houthis. “Saudi Arabia’s leaders must return to their senses,” he said, amid a chorus of “Death to the Saud family” calls chanted by the crowd of thousands of Hezbollah supporters gathered at the Sayyed al-Shuhada Complex in the southern Beirut suburbs.

Hezbollah chief Sayyed Hasan Nasrallah Wednesday vowed to keep an eye on Israel and Lebanon’s southern border, while still being involved in the Syrian conflict. “The Islamic Resistance in Lebanon will not lose sight of the southern border in fighting Israel. … The resistance will also not lose sight of the eastern borders in the Bekaa Valley to fight the takfiri enemy, and we will continue being present in Syria to defend the region’s issues and peoples,” Nasrallah said as he addressed crowds of supporters observing Ashoura at Al-Raya Stadium in the southern suburbs of Beirut. This was Nasrallah’s second public appearance this week, after he surprised supporters last night by giving a speech at the Sayyed al-Shouhadaa complex.

Headline: U.S. Navy destroyer again targeted by missiles from Yemen-U.S. officials

The Pentagon has said that it is considering a military retaliation against Houthi militants in Yemen after two missiles were fired Sunday at the destroyer USS Mason from Houthi-controlled territory in Yemen. Both missiles fell short of the destroyer and landed in the sea. Captain Jeff Davis, a Pentagon spokesman, said today that the U.S. is still assessing who fired missiles at the destroyer when it was in the Red Sea on Sunday.  “Anytime anyone engages a U.S. Navy ship at sea in hostility … they do so at great peril to themselves,” said Davis. Asked if that could mean retaliatory strikes against those responsible for firing the missiles, Davis said, “Those things are things that we’re looking at.” “We want very much to get to the bottom of what happened,” said Davis. “We’re going to find out who did this, and we’ll take action accordingly.” Meanwhile, a U.S. Navy destroyer was targeted on Wednesday in a failed missile attack from territory in Yemen controlled by Iran-aligned Houthi rebels, the second such incident in the past four days, U.S. officials told Reuters.

Headline:   Russian, Egyptian troops to hold exercises at El-Alamein

Egypt says it will host Russian troops this month for joint military exercises at the coastal city of El-Alamein, the latest step in the two countries’ rapprochement. The army says in a Wednesday statement that the training exercises, called “Guardians of Friendship,” will take place between Oct. 15 and 26 and include “elite units” as well as vehicles from both sides. Egypt has increased cooperation with Russia under the leadership of President Abdel-Fattah el-Sisi, the former army leader who overthrew his elected but divisive Islamist predecessor in 2013. In May 2015, Cairo announced a $25 billion Russian loan for a joint project to build a nuclear power plant.

Russia’s President Vladimir Putin has cancelled a planned visit to France amid a row over Syria. He had been due to meet French President Francois Hollande and open a new Orthodox church later this month. But after France’s government said talks would be confined to Syria, the visit was halted, French presidential sources said. On Monday, Mr Hollande suggested Russia could face war crimes charges over its bombardment of Syria’s city of Aleppo. The French presidency had told the Russians Mr Hollande would attend only one event with Mr Putin during the visit planned for 19 October – a working meeting on Syria, according to the sources. But after this Russia “let it be known that it wanted to postpone the visit”, they added. A spokesman for Mr Putin confirmed the trip had been cancelled, adding that the visit would take place when it becomes “comfortable for President Hollande”.

Headline:   ISIS, Hezbollah seen using weaponized drones, raising new fears in Syria

Headline:   Pentagon: ISIS arming small drones with explosives

Insurgent groups like Hezbollah and the Islamic State group have learned how to weaponize surveillance drones and use them against each other, adding a new twist to Syria’s civil war, a U.S. military official and others say. A video belonging to an Al Qaeda offshoot, Jund al-Aqsa, purportedly shows a drone landing on Syrian military barracks. In another video , small explosives purportedly dropped by the Iran-backed Shiite militant group Hezbollah target the Sunni militant group Jabhat Fatah al-Sham, formerly known as the Nusra Front. A U.S. military official, who spoke anonymously because he wasn’t authorized to discuss the matter publicly, said the U.S. military is aware of the development. Commanders have warned troops to take cover if they see what they might have once dismissed as a surveillance drone, he said. The head of the Airwars project, which tracks the international air war in Iraq, Syria and Libya, said the weaponized drones are clumsy but will scare people. “There are a million ways you can weaponize drones — fire rockets, strap things in and crash them,” Chris Woods said. He added: “This is the stuff everyone has been terrified about for years, and now it’s a reality.”

The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights called Tuesday’s onslaught “the heaviest Russian bombardment” since the government of President Bashar al-Assad announced last week it would cut back on airstrikes, ostensibly to allow civilians to disarm and leave opposition-held neighborhoods. However, civilians, distrustful of the Assad government, have largely ignored the offer, which insurgents fighting to topple the government have called a deception.

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, a UK-based organization that reports on the war, also confirmed the capture of Duweibiq.

Headline: Turkey has right to combat threats in Syria and Iraq — Erdogan

Headline: US tries to defuse Iraq-Turkey war of words over Mosul

Headline:  Iraqi forces liberate strategic island in Al-Anbar

A planned U.S.-backed operation to drive Islamic State from the Iraqi city of Mosul could cause “blood and fire” in the region if not carefully handled, Turkey warned on Wednesday, saying it would keep troops nearby despite Baghdad’s opposition. President Tayyip Erdogan said Turkey, locked in an escalating row with Iraq over who should take part in the planned Mosul assault, would do all it could to prevent the operation from deepening sectarian conflict on its borders. Mosul, home to up to 1.5 million people, has been the headquarters of Islamic State’s self-declared caliphate in northern Iraq since 2014. The battle for the city, expected later this month, will help shape the future of Iraq and the legacy of U.S. President Barack Obama. “We will use all our resources to prevent our brothers in Syria and Iraq from being crushed under the wheels of global power games, and to keep us from suffering a similar fate,” Erdogan said in a speech in Istanbul. “We are determined to deflate the balloon of sectarian conflict aimed at drowning the region in blood and fire.” Soldiers from Turkey, a regional power with the second largest armed forces in NATO, have been training Sunni Muslim and Kurdish Peshmerga units at the Bashiqa camp in northern Iraq and want them to take part in the expected battle for Mosul. But their presence has sparked a row with the Shi’ite-led government in Baghdad, which is keen that its forces be at the forefront of the offensive. Erdogan said: “Turkey cannot intervene against the threats right next to it? We will never accept this… We don’t need permission for this, and we don’t plan on getting it.”

Headline:   ISIS drone kills Kurdish fighters, hurts French troops

A remote-controlled hobby plane belonging to ISIS and rigged with hidden explosives killed two Kurdish fighters and wounded two French special operations troops near Mosul, French and U.S. sources confirmed Wednesday. While the Pentagon has previously said ISIS uses simple, commercially available drones to conduct surveillance and carry small explosives, this was the first known deadly case. According to a U.S. defense official, the incident unfolded Oct. 2 when a small plane with a styrofoam body was either shot down or crashed in Irbil in northern Iraq. Two local Kurdish peshmerga fighters grabbed it and took it back to their camp to inspect and photograph it, when it blew up. “It looks like the explosive charge was hidden inside of what appeared to be a battery on some sort of a timer,” the official said, speaking on condition of anonymity to discuss the matter. A French source earlier confirmed the use of a “booby-trapped drone in Iraq,” while another confirmed that two French soldiers were hurt in the incident. One of the French soldiers has life-threatening injuries. Both have been flown back to France for treatment.  The French military declined to comment.

Iran

Headline:     Obama breaks another promise to ‘save’ the Iran deal

The Obama administration keeps on breaking its promises on the Iran deal — its promises to the American people, that is. The latest betrayal: The Treasury Department just lifted key restrictions on Iran’s ability to do business in US dollars and access world financial markets — breaking Team Obama’s explicit vows as it lobbied Congress not to nix the deal. Iran’s banks weren’t even cut off from the US financial system over the nuclear issue — but over Tehran’s funding of terrorism, its regional aggression and so on. Which makes another Treasury move even more squalid: It will now also let foreign firms and branches of US firms do business with Iranian groups like the Revolutionary Guard. The Guard is the chief conduit for Tehran’s support of terrorism, tied to numerous plots, including one in DC aimed at a Saudi envoy. And it’s also a prime force helping Syria’s Bashar al-Assad massacre civilians in his bloody bid to keep power. It was behind the kidnapping of US sailors in January, the serial harassment of US Navy ships and even last month’s arrest of another Iranian-American in Iran. Yet the Obama Treasury is making it easier for the Revolutionary Guard to do business — as part of an official US drive to boost Iran’s economy in the name of preserving the nuclear deal.

Headline: Remote district in northwestern Afghanistan falls to the Taliban

The Islamic State (IS) extremist group has claimed responsibility for an attack on a shrine in the Afghan capital, Kabul, that killed 18 people, mostly Shi’ite mourners. IS’s affiliate in Afghanistan and Pakistan — known as Khorasan Province — claimed the attack in an online statement issued on October 12. Interior Ministry spokesman Sediq Sediqqi said 62 people, including 12 police, were wounded in the attack on the Karte Sakhi shrine, one of the largest in Kabul. He said that, contrary to earlier reports of three gunmen, only one gunman, who was later gunned down by security forces, attacked the shrine. In a statement issued on October 12, the United Nations said the “attack deliberately targeting a large group of civilians exercising their right to freely manifest their religion in worship, observance, and practice is an atrocity.” In a statement issued on October 11, Afghan President Ashraf Ghani offered his condolences to the victims and condemned the attack as a “clear sign of a crime against humanity.”

ACLU said Geofeedia had been marketing its services to police agencies to help track activists using location data and social media posts. The group said it had seen internal documents in which Geofeedia said that it “covered Ferguson/Mike Brown nationally with great success,” referring to protests which erupted in 2014 after an unarmed African-American man was shot dead by police. “The ACLU of California has obtained records showing that Twitter, Facebook and Instagram provided user data access to Geofeedia, a developer of a social media monitoring product that we have seen marketed to law enforcement as a tool to monitor activists and protesters,” the group said in a statement. “We know for a fact that in Oakland [California] and Baltimore [Maryland], law enforcement has used Geofeedia to monitor protests.”

A local official says at least seven people have been killed in an explosion targeting a taxi in northeastern Nigeria’s largest city. Bello Dambatta, an emergency response official, says six people were killed at the scene of Wednesday’s attack and another died at a hospital. He says at least four people were injured. It is unclear if a bomb had been planted on the taxi or if a passenger detonated explosives after boarding. The explosion occurred as the taxi approached a gas station. Northeastern Nigeria is the epicenter of Boko Haram’s seven-year uprising that has claimed more than 20,000 lives. Maiduguri city had been spared deadly bombings in recent months as soldiers were able to shoot suicide attackers before they reached their targets.

Headline: Brexit champ: We are seeing a ‘popular uprising against failed politics on a global scale’

There is a “growing mistrust of the political class” in both Britain and the U.S., a key player in the successful Brexit vote said. “The little people have had enough – not just here, but in America too,” Nigel Farage, leader of the UK Independence Party (Ukip), wrote in an Oct. 9 op-ed for the UK’s Telegraph. The U.S. presidential campaign “mirrors many of the arguments and conflicts that we have seen recently in British politics, especially during the recent referendum campaign. Essentially, this election is about continuity versus change, with huge doses of personal vitriol thrown in,” Farage wrote. “When I arrived at the Republican Party convention in Cleveland, Ohio, back in July, I was amazed at the reaction to me over the Brexit result. Normally we follow trends in America, not the other way round, but it was clear that many of the delegates saw Brexit as an aspiration for what they see as the Trump ‘revolution’ against the Establishment.” Farage noted that “one of the reasons that Ukip went from being an insignificant political party to winning the 2014 European elections is that we spoke about issues in a language that resonated with ordinary people.” “Like him or loathe him,” Farage pointed out, “Trump is not a part of the political elite and he most certainly is not constrained by political correctness. When I spoke at one of his rallies in Jackson, Mississippi, I saw a fanatical gathering of his fans who want to give the Establishment a good hiding. ‘We want our country back’ works as a slogan here, too.”

Russia´s military conducted a series of intercontinental ballistic missile tests on Wednesday, the latest flexing of its muscles as tensions with the US spike over Syria. Russian forces fired a nuclear-capable rocket from a Pacific Fleet submarine in the Sea of Okhotsk north of Japan, state-run RIA Novosti reported. A Topol missile was shot off from a submarine in the Barents Sea, and a third was launched from an inland site in the north-west of the vast country, Russian agencies reported. The latest display of might by Moscow — which has been conducting regular military drills since ties with the West slumped in 2014 over Ukraine — comes as tensions have shot up in recent days. Russia has pulled the plug on a series of deals with the US — including a symbolic disarmament pact between the two nuclear powers to dispose of weapons-grade plutonium — as Washington has halted talks on Syria.

Headline: RED ALERT — Get ready for a ‘severe fall’ in the stock market, HSBC says

HSBC’s technical-analysis team has thrown up the ultimate warning signal. In a note to clients released Wednesday, Murray Gunn, the head of technical analysis for HSBC, said he had become on “RED ALERT” for an imminent sell-off in stocks given the price action over the past few weeks. Gunn uses a type of technical analysis called the Elliott Wave Principle, which tracks alternating patterns in the stock market to discern investors’ behavior and possible next moves. In late September, Gunn said the stock market’s moves looked eerily similar to those just before the 1987 stock market crash. Citi’s Tom Fitzpatrick also highlighted the market’s similarities to the 1987 crash just a few days ago. On September 30, Gunn said stocks were under an “orange alert,” as they looked to him as if they had topped out.

Headline:   Displaced Nigerians Face Starvation in Maiduguri

Headline: North Korea plagued by serious levels of hunger, think tank says

The food shortage gripping northeast Nigeria is most obvious on the streets of the Borno State capital, Maiduguri. Long lines meander along the sidewalks as people wait for handouts from charities. Sometimes, the people in line become unruly. For seven years, Boko Haram militants have been at war with the Nigerian government. Sect members have targeted civilians — destroying farmland and stealing livestock. Families have fled to the cities, especially Maiduguri, which is now housing more than a million displaced people. Hunger and widespread malnutrition are the result. “Today in Maiduguri, malnutrition is way above 20 percent,” says Dr. Jarvid Ali, the emergency medical coordinator of Doctors Without Borders’ activities in Borno State. “That means in terms of the gravity of the situation, the magnitude of severe acute malnutrition, it’s really huge.” Many people cannot afford to buy food and some displaced people say the rations in the refugee camps are not enough. The food insecurity has reached famine levels and Maiduguri residents say they have noticed a rise in the number of deaths.

Headline:       Minister: Part of response to Jerusalem terror needs to be massive building in capital

Israel should build massively in Jerusalem as part of its answer to the type of terrorism that struck the capital again on Sunday morning, Agriculture Minister Uri Ariel said before Sunday’s cabinet meeting. Ariel’s comments to reporters before the weekly cabinet session came within an hour of news of the Jerusalem shooting attacks. Part of the answer to these attacks, he said, beyond the security component, “is massive building and removing from the heart of our enemies the idea that we will ever move from a united Jerusalem. That will minimize the potential for attacks in Jerusalem.” Bayit Yehudi MK Mordechai Yogev called for the cabinet to immediately permit construction, for the IDF to enter Arab neighborhoods in Jerusalem, and to destroy Hamas. “Every attack requires a Zionist response of authorizing new building plans in Jerusalem, Judea and Samaria,” Yogev said. “This must be accompanied by public diplomacy telling the world that the land belongs to the people of Israel who desire life, and not to terrorists who sanctify death.”

Headline:  Kerry said to tell PM that US hasn’t decided yet on UN resolution

US Secretary of State John Kerry reportedly told Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu over the weekend that the Obama administration has not yet made a decision on whether to back a UN Security Council resolution on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict after the November presidential elections. Support for or promotion of such a resolution would mark a drastic change in policy for the US, which has consistently vetoed and/or threatened to veto any UN resolutions deemed unfavorable to Israel. In a phone conversation on Saturday night, Netanyahu told Kerry he expects that the US will not support any diplomatic measures at the UN that are carried out without Israel’s consent, Haaretz newspaper reported. The prime minister also reiterated statements he made in a speech to the UN General Assembly last month, in which he said “peace will not come from statements and resolutions at the United Nations.” But while Kerry listened to Netanyahu’s request, he told the prime minister that no decision on supporting future resolutions had yet been made, the report said. Speaking at the UN in September a day before his final official meeting with Obama, Netanyahu sought to sow opposition to a change in US policy, praising Obama for using his veto for such resolutions in the past. The phone conversation between Kerry and Netanayahu came amid a tussle between Israel and the US following Israeli approval last week of construction of new settlement housing units for the homeowners of the illegal outpost of Amona ahead of its court-ordered evacuation. The plan calls for two phases of construction, with a further 200 units to be approved after a first round of 98 homes is completed.

Headline:  Danon to UN: Why don’t you ask PA to condemn terror attack?

An East Jerusalem resident shot and killed a 60-year-old woman and a 30-year-old police officer on Sunday near the National Headquarters of the Israel Police in Jerusalem on Sunday. The drive-by shootings spanned three sites. In addition, three victims were moderately wounded, while a further three were lightly wounded by shrapnel or suffered from shock. Police eventualy shot the assailant, identified as a 39-year-old resident of the Silwan neighborhood, at nearby Sheikh Jarrah. He succumbed to his wounds shortly thereafter. Israeli Ambassador to the United Nations, Danny Danon, penned a letter to the UN Security Council, calling upon that body to demand the Palestinian Authority condemn the murder of Yosef Kirma and Levana Malichi in Jerusalem on Sunday. In his letter, Danon noted the numerous expressions of joy and celebrations by Arabs in Jerusalem and Judea and Samaria following the terror attack. He also included photographs documenting the celebrations. In some cases, Arab residents were seen handing out candy and waving pictures of the terrorist. Danon argued that the Security Council must “demand that the Palestinian Authority immediately halt the incitement [against Israel] and strongly condemn the murders in Jerusalem.”

A top Hamas official called for the bolstering of his group’s ties with Iran and issued a threat to Israel, in an interview with the Islamic Republic’s semi-official state news agency Fars on Monday. Mahmoud al-Zahar — a co-founder of the Islamic fundamentalist terrorist organization that rules the Gaza Strip — said, “Relations with Iran are acceptable but they should further enhance and develop [and]…if the regime (Israel) is after a new war against the region, (it should know that) the Palestinian resistance, more than what they imagine, is ready to enter a real battle.” Last month, as reported by The Algemeiner, Mohammad Majedi — a high-ranking Iranian diplomatic official stationed in Beirut — told Hamas’ envoy to Lebanon Ali Baraka that Tehran would continue to support “the Palestinian nation, the resistance groups and Palestine’s Intifada against Israel’s occupation.” And Baraka, for his part, declared that Hamas was determined to maintain good ties with Iran.

Headline:     Missiles Fired From Rebel-Held Yemen Land Near US Destroyer

Two missiles fired from rebel-held territory in Yemen landed near an American destroyer in the Red Sea, the U.S. Navy said Monday, the second such launch targeting ships in the crucial international waterway in recent days.The missile launches Sunday came as a ballistic missile fired from Yemen apparently targeted a Saudi air base near the Muslim holy city of Mecca, the deepest strike yet into the kingdom by Shiite rebels and their allies. The rebels fired another two missiles into the Saudi Jizan region along the border on Monday, wounding two foreigners who worked there, the local civil defense said in a statement.Yemen’s Shiite rebels, known as Houthis, and their allies offered no reason for the launches, though they came after a Saudi-led airstrike targeting a funeral in Yemen’s capital killed over 140 people and wounded 525 on Saturday. In a statement, the Navy said no American sailors were wounded and no damage was caused to the USS Mason, an Arleigh Burke class of guided missile destroyer whose home port is Norfolk, Virginia. Lt. Ian McConnaughey, a spokesman for U.S. Navy Forces Central Command, said that it’s unclear if the USS Mason was specifically targeted, though the missiles were fired in its direction over an hour’s time, starting at around 7 p.m.

Headline:  Allies Saudi Arabia, Egypt in rare public spat over Syria

Close allies and Arab powerhouses Egypt and Saudi Arabia are having their first public spat since Egyptian President Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi took office two years ago, a quarrel over Syria that points to a wider, but mostly muted, divergence in the handling by Cairo and Riyadh of regional issues. The two countries have gone to great lengths to shield their differences from the public eye, often emphasizing their closes ties and cooperation. But Egypt’s vote in favor of separate Russian and French draft resolutions on Syria at the UN Security Council over the weekend has apparently angered the Saudis. Egypt’s UN Ambassador Amr Aboulatta, the Arab representative on the council, defended his support for both drafts, saying his country backed all efforts to stop the suffering of the Syrians. Russia vetoed the French resolution demanding an immediate halt of the bombing by Russia and the Syrian government of rebel-held areas in the northern city of Aleppo.

Syria Headline:       Russia vetoes U.N. demand for end to bombing of Syria’s Aleppo

Russia vetoed a French-drafted U.N. Security Council resolution on Saturday that would have demanded an end to air strikes and military flights over Syria’s city of Aleppo, while a rival Russian draft text failed to get a minimum nine votes in favor. Moscow’s text was effectively the French draft with Russian amendments. It removed the demand for an end to air strikes on Aleppo and put the focus back on a failed Sept. 9 U.S./Russia ceasefire deal, which was annexed to the draft. British U.N. Ambassador Matthew Rycroft told Russian U.N. Ambassador Vitaly Churkin: “Thanks to your actions today, Syrians will continue to lose their lives in Aleppo and beyond to Russian and Syrian bombing. Please stop now.” Syrian President Bashar al-Assad’s forces, backed by Russian war planes and Iranian support, have been battling to capture eastern Aleppo, the rebel-held half of Syria’s largest city, where more than 250,000 civilians are trapped. “Russia has become one of the chief purveyors of terror in Aleppo, using tactics more commonly associated with thugs than governments,” U.S. Deputy Ambassador to the United Nations David Pressman told the council.

Syria Headline:    Russia to create permanent naval base in Syria

Russia intends to establish a permanent naval base on the site of an existing facility it leases at the Syrian port of Tartus, Russian Deputy Defence Minister Nikolai Pankov said on Monday, Russian news agencies reported. Pankov’s statement is the latest sign that Moscow wants to expand its military footprint in Syria where it has been helping President Bashar al-Assad fight rebels since 2015. Moscow last week deployed S-300 surface-to air missiles to Tartus. “We will have a permanent naval base at Tartus,” Pankov told Russian senators. “The necessary documents are already prepared and are in the process of being approved by different agencies. We hope we can ask you to ratify these documents soon.” Senator Igor Morozov told the RIA news agency that the decision would allow Russia to operate more ships in the Mediterranean as they would have an enhanced facility at which they could refuel and resupply. “By doing this Russia is not only increasing its military potential in Syria but in the entire Middle East and in the Mediterranean region as a whole,” said Morozov. Russia already has a permanent air base at Hmeymim in Syria’s Latakia province from which it launches air strikes against anti-Assad rebels.

Syria Headline:  Syrian Forces Push Through Rebel-Held Eastern Aleppo

Syrian government forces continued their offensive on rebel-held eastern Aleppo, after the U.N. Security Council failed to pass a resolution Saturday on a truce to end the deadly bombing of the city. Regime forces and their allies were advancing street by street in the eastern sector of Aleppo, which had been out of government control since 2012, the British-based monitoring group Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said, adding that regime forces took control of the Jandul crossroads in the northeast of the city. The Observatory said 290 civilians have died in artillery bombardment of eastern districts and 50 civilians have died in rebel bombardment of regime-controlled western districts in the past two weeks. The Damascus daily newspaper Al-Watan, which is close to the government, said the latest advance is aiming to clear the way for “a crucial and decisive land offensive.”

Iraq Headline:          D-day looms for Mosul battle but questions remain

More than two years after the fall of Mosul to the Islamic State, the battle to liberate Iraq’s second-largest city appears imminent. Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi said in September that he expected the military offensive in Mosul to begin in October, al­though in later pronouncements he said he would decide at “the last minute” when to give the go-ahead. British Defense Secretary Mi­chael Fallon said the operation to liberate Mosul would begin “within weeks” and French De­fense Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian said, “There will soon be the main attack.” Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said the military of­fensive would begin Oct. 19. Iraqi officials said they expected the liberation to be swift and un­complicated. Observers, however, said they fear complications during and af­ter the liberation of Mosul. Reports from Mosul indicate that IS has tightened its grip on the ci­vilian population it is holding hos­tage in the city and is not expected to leave without bloodshed, boo­by traps and “tunnels of fire.”

Ten Turkish soldiers and eight civilians were killed Sunday when suspected Kurdish militants detonated a car bomb outside a military checkpoint in Hakkari province in southeast Turkey. Another 26 people, 10 soldiers and 16 civilians, were injured. Turkish Prime Minister Binali Yildirim blamed the Kurdistan Workers’ Party for the suicide attack that detonated five tons of explosives. “Unfortunately in Semdinli, in Hakkari [province], we have martyrs as a result of a suicide bombing attack by the vile terrorist organization,” he said, referring to the PKK, Kurdistan Workers’ Party. “We have citizens from the civilian population who have lost their lives.As of now, 10 of our soldiers have been martyred and and eight civilians.” The mid-morning attack occurred when a small truck approached the vehicle checkpoint and ignored an order to stop, prompting troops to open fire, authorities said. The explosion left a crater 15 meters wide and 7 meters deep.

Turkey and Russia on Monday signed a deal to build a gas pipeline from Russia as the two countries pressed ahead with efforts to normalize ties. Russian President Vladimir Putin and Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan watched as their countries’ energy ministers sealed an intergovernmental agreement for the “Turkish Stream” project that would bring gas from Russia to Turkey. It would then be distributed to European Union nations. The project, which had previously been suspended amid tensions between the two countries, was signed on the sidelines of the World Energy Congress. In other steps aimed at restoring ties, Putin announced that Russia had agreed to a natural gas discount to Turkey and would resume importing fruit, vegetables and other agricultural goods from the country. The two countries would intensify defense contacts and also look into cooperation in space technologies. Russia is building Turkey’s first nuclear power plant, and Erdogan said the sides agreed to accelerate the project. “I am convinced that the process of normalization of our ties will continue rapidly,” Erdogan told reporters during a joint news conference. “Our relations will (improve) in many fields, be it in defense industry, political, economic, trade, tourism or culture.” “We will make up for lost time in the coming days,” Erdogan said.

A suicide car bombing killed 14 people, including 10 Afghan police officers, as the Taliban launched a large-scale attack Monday on the capital in southern Helmand province, the heartland of the insurgency. Since the beginning of this year’s fighting season, the Taliban have expanded their footprint across most of the province and have been at the gates of the city of Lashkar Gah, the provincial capital, for weeks. According to Haji Marjan, police chief of Nad Ali district who has been deployed to the city, the explosion happened around 11.30 a.m., after the Taliban earlier targeted police checkpoints across Lashkar Gah. Marjan said at least 10 police officers, including his brother, and four civilians died in the bombing in the Mukhtar area of police district 2. He warned the death toll was likely to rise as it was unclear how many people remain unaccounted for after the explosion. A doctor at the city’s international emergency hospital said 14 bodies were brought to the clinic. Speaking on condition of anonymity as he was not authorized to speak to the media, the physician said 15 wounded were also brought in, including 14 victims of the car bombing and one person who suffered gunshot wounds. |

Ethiopia has declared a state of emergency following months of anti-government protests by members of the country’s two largest ethnic groups. The Oromo and the Amhara make up about 60% of the population. They complain power is held by a tiny Tigrean elite. Violence has intensified since last Sunday when at least 55 people were killed in clashes between police and protesters at an Oromo festival. Hundreds have died in months of protests, human rights groups say. Tens of thousands have also been detained, they say. Declaring the state of emergency, Ethiopian Prime Minister Hailemariam Desalegn said in a televised address: “We put our citizens’ safety first. Besides, we want to put an end to the damage that is being carried out against infrastructure projects, education institutions, health centres, administration and justice buildings.” The state of emergency will last for six months.

Rebels attacked trucks carrying civilians in South Sudan, killing 21 people, the government said, as violence between rival forces loyal to President Salva Kiir and his former vice president risks dragging the country back into civil war. The United Nations Mission in South Sudan (UNMISS) said in a statement on Monday it had received reports of horrific violence being perpetrated against civilians in Central Equatorial State and urged both rebel and government commanders to control their forces. The government said on Monday 21 civilians were killed, some burned to death, and about 20 wounded when rebel gunmen ambushed their vehicles on a road connecting Yei town, in Central Equatorial State, to the capital Juba on Saturday. Jacob Lem Chan, a local government official, said four trucks were ambushed and victims were burned and shot at. “These are SPLA-IO force … who laid the ambush,” Chan said, referring to former vice president Riek Machar’s rebel movement. “We have confirmed 21 dead, and about 20 casualties were admitted in the hospital,” Chan said, adding one truck was burnt with victims inside.

Libya

Headline:  Libyan forces push into last ISIS area in Sirte

Libyan pro-government forces are advancing into the last area controlled by ISIS in the coastal city of Sirte, surrounding the militants after a five-month campaign backed by US air strikes, military officials say. At least eight pro-government fighters were killed over the weekend as their forces pushed into the 600 block, an area in central Sirte, with snipers and boobytraps posing the main obstacles to their advance, the officials said. A Reuters reporter on the ground said forces advanced across two streets on Sunday, but were facing resistance and discovering explosive devices in many buildings. The advance is being led by the Bonyan Marsous forces, mainly fighters from the city of Misrata, who are supporting a United Nations-backed unity government in Tripoli that is trying to bring together rival factions. “The forces of Bonyan Marsous made some advances and completely trapped the 600 block area in Sirte,” Misrata forces media official Ali Almabrouk said. Mohamed Ghasri, a spokesman for pro-government forces, said two female militants had escaped with their three children and surrendered. They told Misrata forces they did not want to be used in suicide attacks, Ghasri said. The fall of a major city to one of the country’s most powerful factions is rekindling tensions with rival brigades in the east, led by Khalifa Haftar, who has rejected the authority of the UN-backed government in Tripoli. In a major advance, Haftar has taken control of eastern oil ports and his troops have advanced close to Sirte. Many in the west of Libya believe Haftar is planning to establish himself as a military strongman like Gaddafi. His backers in the east see him as the only one who has fought for their interests, especially against Islamist militants.

The Islamist party which has headed Morocco’s coalition government since Arab Spring-inspired protests five years ago has beaten liberal rivals in parliamentary elections, results showed Saturday. Prime Minister Abdelilah Benkirane’s Islamist Justice and Development Party (PJD) took 125 seats out of 395, the interior ministry said after all ballots were counted. Its main rival, the Authenticity and Modernity Party (PAM), which had campaigned against the “Islamisation” of Moroccan society, won 102 seats, the ministry said. Istiqlal, the party which historically fought for independence from France, came third with 45 seats. In any case, the real power will remain in the hands of King Mohammed VI, the scion of a monarchy that has ruled the North African country for 350 years. Interior Minister Mohamed Hassad said that the election was “transparent” and had gone well, rejecting accusations of voter fraud from both sides.

Anxious to quell anti-India protests in Kashmir, Indian forces are carrying out their most severe crackdown in more than two decades against civilian protesters, arresting more than 8,000 this summer across the disputed Himalayan territory, police said Monday. That includes 450 or so civilians being held, possibly for up to six months without trial, under a harsh security law criticized as a human-rights violation. India has said the separatist rebels – and civilians who help them – are undermining the country’s territorial integrity and forcing authorities to keep the India-controlled portion of Kashmir under tight control. “This is, so far, the biggest crackdown against miscreants,” said a senior police officer, requesting anonymity because he was not authorized to share details of the crackdown.

Headline:  Nine police officers killed in attacks in Myanmar

Nine police officers were killed and four wounded when a group of 90 assailants raided a police station and others attacked a border control post in western Myanmar, near the border with Bangladesh. State officials said they believed the assailants were members of the Muslim minority in the state of Rakhine, where the attacks took place Sunday. There are more than 1 million members of the Muslim Rohingya ethnic group living in the state. Most have been denied citizenship in Myanmar, formerly Burma, and Myanmar has refused to recognize them as an ethnic group, insisting they are ethnic Bengalis. The attacks began early Sunday morning when the group of 90 men stormed the police station in Maungdow Township, killing six police officers, wounding two others, and seizing a large number of weapons. One police officer was killed and two wounded in a second attack, taking place at the same time, on a police border patrol camp in Rathidaung Township. Two more police officers were killed and one missing after a third attack a couple of hours later in Buthidaung Township. Seven of the attackers were reportedly killed in that attack.

Headline:      Russia deploys nuclear-capable missiles in Kaliningrad

Russia has deployed nuclear-capable Iskander missiles in its western-most region, Kaliningrad, which borders on Nato members Poland and Lithuania. Poland said the development was of the “highest concern”, adding it was monitoring the situation. Russia’s defence ministry said the new deployment was part of military exercises and had happened before. The US and Nato have seen disagreements with Russia intensify in recent times, particularly over Syria and Ukraine. Kaliningrad is a Russian enclave sandwiched between Poland and Lithuania. The Iskander system has a range of up to 700km (440 miles) and could reach the German capital, Berlin. Polish Defence Minister Antoni Macierewicz called Russia’s activities “very alarming”. And a US intelligence official told Reuters the move could be to express displeasure at Nato. Nato is boosting its eastern flank by deploying four battalions in Poland, Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia next year.

Headline:     Report: Japan to deploy enhanced patrol boats to deter Chinese vessels

Japan is implementing stricter measures against Chinese fishing boats that may enter Japanese territorial waters near the disputed Senkaku Islands. Tokyo plans to deploy nine patrol vessels from November to 2018, and to quadruple existing manpower and equipment for monitoring, Japanese television network NHK reported Monday. According to the Japanese coast guard, the number of Chinese boats in violation of maritime law has increased. The coast guard said in 2015 it counted 99 boats in Japan-claimed waters. In 2016, that number increased to 135 boats that were occupying 70 percent of total fishing areas.

Headline: Nearly 7 in 10 Americans have less than $1,000 in savings

The U.S. is often referred to as the land of economic opportunity. Apparently, it’s also the land of consumption and “spend everything you’ve got.” We don’t have to look far for confirmation that Americans are generally poor savers. Every month the St. Louis Federal Reserve releases data on personal household savings rates. In July 2016, the personal savings rate was just 5.7%. Comparatively, personal savings rates in the U.S. 50 years ago were double where they are today, and nearly all developed countries have a higher personal savings rate than the United States. In other words, Americans are saving less of their income than they should be — the recommendation is to save between 10% and 15% of your annual income — and they’re being forced to do more with less in terms of investing. However, new data emerged this week from personal-finance news website GoBankingRates that shows just how dire Americans’ savings habits really are. Last year, GoBankingRates surveyed more than 5,000 Americans only to uncover that 62% of them had less than $1,000 in savings. Last month GoBankingRates again posed the question to Americans of how much they had in their savings account, only this time it asked 7,052 people. The result? Nearly seven in 10 Americans (69%) had less than $1,000 in their savings account.

Headline:  China must wean itself off debt addiction if it is to avoid financial calamity, warns IMF chief

China is edging towards “financial calamity” and must wean itself off its debt addiction and reform if it is to avoid a crisis, the International Monetary Fund has warned. Markus Rodlauer, deputy director of the IMF’s Asia-Pacific department, said the world’s second largest economy was approaching a tipping point where its rapidly growing financial sector and surge in shadow credit could undermine the state’s ability to contain the fallout from a crash. “The level of financial and corporate debt and the complexity of the financial system and rapid growth in shadow banking is on an unsustainable path,” he said. “While still manageable in its size given the size of the public assets under public control, the trend is dangerous and if it’s not corrected it will lead to a correction. “The longer it lasts … the more serious the disturbance and the disruption might be. [The reaction could range] from a mild growth slowdown, to a sharp slowdown in growth to potentially a financial crisis.” Data show credit and financial sector leverage in China has continued to rise much faster than economic growth. The IMF’s latest World Economic Outlook said debt in China was rising at a “dangerous pace”, while its Financial Stability Report showed small Chinese banks were heavily exposed to shadow credit as a share of capital buffers, with exposure reaching nearly 600pc at some banks.

Headline:  Bees placed on endangered species list — a first in the US 10-1

In a first for bees in the nation, seven bee species native to Hawaii are now protected under the Endangered Species Act. The US Fish and Wildlife Service said it added the yellow-faced bee species to the federal list of endangered species Friday night after years of research concluded they are under threat. The rule is effective October 31. Bees pollinate plants producing fruit, nuts and vegetables, and are crucial for the nation’s food industry. They have declined sharply in recent years due to various factors, including habitat loss, pesticides, wildfires and loss of genetic diversity. “Native pollinators in the US provide essential pollination services to agriculture which are valued at more than $9 billion annually,” said Eric Lee-Mäder, pollinator program co-director at the Xerces Society, which was involved in petitions calling for the protection of the bee species. During pollination, insects, birds and bats transfer pollen between plants, which allows them to make seeds and reproduce. Listing the bees allows authorities to provide recovery programs and get funding for protection.

Headline:  Believe it or not, the bees are doing just fine

You’ve probably heard the bad news by now that bees were recently added to the endangered species list for the first time. But if you’re part of the 60 percent of people who share stories without actually reading them, you might have missed an important detail: namely, that the newly endangered bees are a handful of relatively obscure species who live only in Hawaii. The bees you’re more familiar with — the ones that buzz around your yard dipping into flowers, making honey, pollinating crops and generally keeping the world’s food supply from collapsing? Those bees are doing just fine, according to data released by the USDA this year. In 2015, there were 2.66 million commercial honey-producing bee colonies in the United States. That’s down slightly from the 2.74 million colonies in 2014, which represented a two-decade high. The number of commercial bee colonies is still significantly higher than it was in 2006, when colony collapse disorder — the mass die-offs that began afflicting U.S. honeybee colonies — was first documented.

You’ll notice that there are 2 seemingly contradictory stories above.  The first you read scares you, then you read the 2^nd and feel better because – well after all- it IS only Hawaii. That’s ok.  That is exactly what the Post story is meant to do. Make you feel better (notice they began by talking about the 60% who don’t read the story & you instantly feel guilty?).

It’s meant to distract you.  To make you stop worrying about bees dying and in turn NOT worry about food disappearing.  Most of us day to day only think about food (the having and getting) in terms of money, not bees (see today’s story in Economy).  So what is the big deal?

Well ANY bee dying is noteworthy.  God created them ALL for a specific purpose and we understand- food or not- bees are essential to the planet.  Any ‘peace’ about this event should come from God alone, not the Post.  It IS a problem (see ETRM bee archive).  We can face it because God has told us in Zephaniah this would happen, so Christians are more prepared.  God has this- He knows.  The entire point being: search for peace no longer on this earth.  The only true peace comes from Yeshua.

The Arkansas Department of Health is investigating a mumps outbreak that may have infected hundreds of people. A total of 427 suspected cases of mumps are being investigated in the state, with the majority of them children, the department reported on Friday. More than 30 schools in the state have reported one or more student contracting the mumps virus. The health department is requiring any student with a MMR (measles, mumps and rubella) vaccine exemption to stay home for at least 26 days if they were exposed to the mumps virus. If students get the MMR vaccine, they will be able to return to school immediately.

Headline:  Young couples are holding ‘vasectomy parties’ to celebrate the start of a childless family, and ask guests to name their CAR instead

Call it a sign of the times. More couples these days want to avoid parenthood and embrace life without children. So some are marking the start of their childless families with ‘vasectomy parties.’ One couple posted a Reddit bulletin announcing that they were inviting friends to revel in the fun of being sterilized. The invitation calls on attendees to live it up in ‘a house filled with sharp furniture and exposed outlets,’ the Sun reported. Instead of the traditional baby shower, couples also invite friends to ‘car showers’ where guests help them name their new car. They also play board games like The Price Is Right, where they talk about what they can buy now that they’ve saved money by not having kids. ‘Absolutely brilliant!,’ one Reddit user replied. ‘Made me LOL, especially the wording on the invitation, the clever cake, and the advent calendar! Congratulations, by the way and have a happy childfree life!’ ‘All a baby shower is a party to celebrate that you had sex,’ wrote another user. ‘That a sperm managed to hit a fertile egg. A vasectomy shower is a party to celebrate soon to be sex.’ The trend has become so pronounced that one couple posted a blog that they proudly named ‘WereNotHavingABaby.com.’ ‘After six years of having looked forward to becoming a caring and all-out stimulating and dynamic mother at some indeterminate point in the near future, I suddenly realised that this wasn’t the only possible narrative for my life,’ one woman known as Stefani posted on the blog. ‘I had swallowed the motherhood mandate hook, line, and sinker and I had never given myself the space and time to question whether I really, really want children.’ ‘Our society is all about celebrating traditional milestones,’ Amy Blackstone, one of the blog’s authors, told the New York Post. ‘You graduate, you get married, you have a child. But that’s a very narrow path and isn’t indicative of many people’s experiences.’ ‘So why not decide to celebrate your choice to not have a child?’

Hurricane Matthew brutalized the Southeast coast for four days before weakening and veering out over the Atlantic Ocean Sunday, leaving a trail of devastation with at least 26 dead, over 1 million homes and businesses without power today and billions of dollars in damage. Matthew wreaked havoc in Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina and Virginia before it was downgraded to a post-tropical cyclone Sunday as it headed east over the Atlantic. The death toll spans all five states: at least 10 people were killed in North Carolina, eight people including a 9-year-old boy died in Florida, four died in Georgia, three were killed in South Carolina and one died in Virginia. The storm brought winds of up to 100 mph, as much as 15 inches of rain and powerful storm surges of up to 9 feet to some areas.

Headline:   NY Times: UN Security Council should set Israeli-Palestinian peace terms

The New York Times, in an unusual move, has called on the United Nations Security Council to set the parameters for a peace deal between Israel and the Palestinians.
“The best idea under discussion now would be to have the United Nations Security Council, in an official resolution, lay down guidelines for a peace agreement covering such issues as Israel’s security, the future of Jerusalem, the fate of Palestinian refugees and borders for both states,” the paper’s Editorial Board stated. The paper’s editorial, published Thursday, further called on US President Barack Obama to lead the charge at the UNSC. “The most plausible pressure would come from Mr. Obama’s leading the Security Council to put its authority behind a resolution to support a two-state solution and offer the outlines of what that could be. “That may seem like a bureaucratic response unlikely to change anything, but it is the kind of political pressure Mr. Netanyahu abhors and has been working assiduously to prevent,” the New York Times wrote. It issued its editorial just one week before the United Nations Security Council on October 14th is due to hold a public debate, known as an Arria Formula meeting, on Israeli settlement activity in the West Bank and Jewish building in east Jerusalem.

Headline:  UN Security Council to discuss ‘settlements’

The UN Security Council will hold a special meeting next week on Israeli construction in Judea, Samaria and eastern Jerusalem, Haaretz reported Thursday. The Arria Formula meeting will not involve a vote and is expected to be open to the media, according to the newspaper. Foreign Ministry officials in Jerusalem fear it will turn into an international demonstration of condemnation of the Israeli government’s policy and set the stage for an “anti-settlement resolution” in the Security Council after the upcoming U.S. elections. The meeting will be held on October 14 at the behest of Egypt, Venezuela, Malaysia, Senegal and Angola, with a push from the Palestinians. Arria Formula meetings allow all council members to initiate debates on subjects of specific interest to them. While attendance is not mandatory, Jerusalem officials told Haaretz they believe all Security Council members will attend the meeting, stressing that the Palestinians and the host nations succeeded in exceptional fashion to open the session to the press.

Warning sirens were sounded Thursday afternoon in western Negev towns near Gaza. Residents reported hearing explosions shortly after the sirens were activated. An IDF spokesperson later stated that the explosions appear to have been from rockets fired from the Gaza Strip into Israel that landed in an unpopulated area not far from Eshkol Regional Council communities in the area. No injuries have been reported. The IDF is conducting searches in the area to verify the cause of the explosion and ensure that no unexploded material remains at the site.

Headline:      Ghajar residents planned to carry out attack using weapons they smuggled from Hezbollah in Lebanon

Six people were charged Thursday for planning to carry out a terror attack in the northern Israeli city of Haifa using explosives they received from the Lebanese-based militant group Hezbollah, the Shin Bet security service said. Three brothers and a cousin are among the defendants, who are all residents of the village of Ghajar, an Alawite-Arab village on the Hasbani River on the border between Lebanon and the Israeli-controlled Golan Heights. Israel Police said that along with the Shin Bet it had prevented a terrorist attack after revealing the infrastructure that was used as a route to smuggle drugs and weapons from the Lebanese border into Israel. “An investigation began in late July after a farmer found a bag containing two explosive devices in an open area off Highway 90 near the northern town of Metulla,” police said. The explosive devices were examined by the police and it was revealed that the origin of the bag was from the other side of the border, which indicated that Hezbollah was involved. Part of the investigation showed that the bag had been smuggled from Lebanon by a number of suspects from Ghajar. All of the suspects are currently in custody, and on Thursday they were indicted of the following crimes: espionage, aiding the enemy during war, import and export of weapons, contacting a foreign agent and drug dealing.

Syria Headline:     UN to vote on Aleppo truce, face Russian veto

The Russian government is ratcheting up warnings – on Twitter – to the U.S. government not to interfere with its military operations in Syria, even suggesting American aircraft could be targeted by its “air defense systems.” In a provocative tweet Wednesday, the Russian embassy in Washington posted a side-by side photo of White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest and the Russian S-300 missile system. With the military apparatus pointed toward the image of Earnest, a caption says Russia wants the system because they “never really know what kind of assistance terrorists might get.” The tweet says Russia will take “every defensive measure necessary” to protect their personnel in Syria. The tweet comes after the U.S. and Russia suspended direct talks over Syria operations — and amid heightened tensions between the two countries over the bloody civil war in which Vladimir Putin’s forces are backing Bashar Assad while the U.S. tries to focus on taking out ISIS.

Syria Headline:     Kerry Calls for War Crimes Probe Into Russian Activity in Syria

German Chancellor Angela Merkel urged Russia on Friday to use its influence with the Syrian government to end the devastating bombardment of Aleppo, as her government opened the door to possible sanctions against Russia for its role in the conflict. In some of her harshest comments to date, Merkel said there was no basis in international law for bombing hospitals and Moscow should use its influence with Syrian President Bashar al-Assad to end the bombing of civilians. “Russia has a lot of influence on Assad. We must end these atrocious crimes,” Merkel told party members in Magdeburg. She did not address sanctions directly, but said the international community needed to do all it could to bring about a halt in the fighting and get supplies to civilians. Merkel’s chief spokesman Steffen Seibert, speaking at a regular news conference, declined to rule out possible sanctions against Russia for its part in the conflict, but said Berlin’s top priority remained a ceasefire to allow the delivery of humanitarian aid to the civilian population. Seibert said Western officials discussed the Syrian conflict in Berlin on Wednesday and those discussions were continuing.

Syria Headline:    Syria opposition calls for UN envoy to resign

Syria Headline:     Syrian Jihadists rebuff UN envoy’s proposal to leave Aleppo under escort

The Syrian Interim Government has called on Staffan de Mistura to step down, saying that the UN envoy has sided with the Bashar al-Assad regime’s narrative on the critical situation in Aleppo. “We demand the resignation of the UN’s envoy [to Syria]… and we declare that we have stopped all forms of communication and cooperation with him and his staff,” the political body, which was formed in 2013 by the Syrian National Coalition, announced in a statement. “Instead of condemning the aggression [against Aleppo], he sided with the story of the [regime] in Damascus and the Russian occupier,” the Interim Government said, claiming that de Mistura’s recent remarks “gave them justification to continue their aggression.” On Thursday, de Mistura offered to personally accompany all fighters from Jabhat Fatah al-Sham, the rebranded version of the Al-Nusra Front, from Aleppo, saying that the Islamist group was, in effect, holding “hostage” the civilian population of east Aleppo, which has come under intense aerial bombardment following the collapse of a US-Russia brokered cessation of hostilities in late September. The UN envoy’s proposal was predicated on his hope that the Syrian regime would cease bombarding the encircled rebel half of Aleppo if Jabhat Fatah al-Sham fighters left the city. De Mistura also warned that eastern Aleppo could be “totally destroyed” in the coming weeks if the regime shelling of the city continues.

Syria Headline:  Assad offers rebels amnesty if they surrender Aleppo

Syria Headline:  All eastern Aleppo hospitals reported to be damaged in attacks

Rebels holed up in Aleppo can leave with their families if they lay down their arms, President Bashar al-Assad said on Thursday, vowing to press on with the assault on Syria’s largest city and recapture full control of the country. The offer of amnesty follows two weeks of the heaviest bombardment of the five-and-a-half-year civil war, which has killed hundreds of people trapped inside Aleppo’s rebel-held eastern sector and torpedoed a U.S.-backed peace initiative. Fighters have accepted similar government amnesty offers in other besieged areas in recent months, notably in Daraya, a suburb of Damascus that was under siege for years until rebels surrendered it in August. However, rebels said they had no plan to evacuate Aleppo, the last major urban area they control, and denounced the amnesty offer as a deception. “It’s impossible for the rebel groups to leave Aleppo because this would be a trick by the regime,” Zakaria Malahifji, a Turkey-based official for the Fastaqim group which is present in Aleppo, told Reuters. “Aleppo is not like other areas, it’s not possible for them to surrender.” Washington was also skeptical of government motives: “For them to suggest that somehow they’re now looking out for the interests of civilians is outrageous,” White House spokesman Josh Earnest said, citing the heavy civilian toll from air strikes and bombardment.

Just six months after the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) liberated Palmyra, Syrian government troops now find themselves under increased ISIS attacks as the Islamic State leadership hopes to recapture the ancient city and score a symbolic victory. On Friday morning, just a few kilometers southeast of Palmyra, SAA forces repelled an ISIS assault, destroyed two technicals (light vehicles) and inflicted approximately 10 casualties upon jihadist fighters at the Al-Talilah zone. Furthermore, Syrian government soldiers managed to kill an ISIS driver who unsuccessfully tried to reach a SAA checkpoint and detonate a car bomb at Qasr Al-Habr, south of Palmyra.

Iraq has requested an emergency UN Security Council session over the presence of Turkish troops in northern Iraq, a foreign ministry spokesman said Thursday, a development that highlights increasing tension between the two neighbours. Turkey, however, remained defiant, with Prime Minister Binali Yildirim vowing on Thursday to maintain Turkish troop presence “no matter what Baghdad says”. Turkey-Iraq relations became strained after Ankara sent troops late last year to the region of Bashiqa, northeast of Mosul, to train anti-Daesh fighters there — a move Baghdad labelled a “blatant violation” of its sovereignty. Iraq has demanded a Turkish withdrawal but Ankara has ignored the call.

A radical Kurdish group with ties to the outlawed Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) claimed responsibility on Friday for a motorbike bombing near an Istanbul police station. The claim by the Kurdistan Freedom Falcons (TAK) for Thursday’s bombing came after Turkish police detained a suspected female militant from the PKK, who is believed to have perpetrated the bombing. At least 10 people were wounded when a bomb which authorities said was attached to a motorbike exploded in the Yenibosna district of Istanbul, close to the city’s main international airport. Television pictures showed several cars wrecked and glass scattered across the ground after the blast.

Kurdish Headline:  EU report expresses concerns over increasing racist violence against Kurds in Turkey

A media outlet affiliated with the ruling Kurdish authorities in northern Syria has raised concerns over recent Turkish military activity across the border from a de-facto autonomous Kurdish region in the northwest of the war-torn country. In an article entitled “Unprecedented Turkish military movements along Afrin’s border,” the ANHA news agency claimed Thursday that Ankara was undertaking unusual maintenance work on a railway leading into Syria that has been out of service since 2012. Local sources in the Afrin Canton told ANHA that the Turkish military for the pays three days has been working to “restore” the railroad outside the Syrian border village of Meidan Ekbis, which was once one of the stops along the train routes that stretched from Istanbul to Damascus as well as Baghdad. Meanwhile, a source in Turkey said that the Turkish army “conducted full maintenance on the railway” running from the town of Islahiye,  adding that a “number of concrete panels” in a wall running across the railroad tracks were removed “at the border near the village of Meidan Ekbis.”

After the meeting, Barzani warned of future problems in Mosul. “[We] must contextualize Iraq’s war as part of ethnic, religious and political differences, and address root-causes of problems to win the peace,” Barzani said. “Problems will resurface once Mosul’s liberated. It’s easier to reach a post-management deal now whilst the parties need each other.” Barzani’s statement indicates that although a military plan might be ready for Mosul, there is no concrete plan yet for the post-ISIS administration of the city.

Headline:   Turkey, Europe, Saudi Arabia in joint effort against JASTA: Minister

Headline:  Justice Against Sponsors of Terrorism Act (JASTA)

The Turkish government is working with Saudi Arabia to examine measures to face the Justice Against Sponsors of Terrorism Act (JASTA), that was voted in by the US Congress last month, Asharq Al-Awsat newspaper has reported. In an interview with the Saudi newspaper, Turkish Development Minister, Lutfi Elvan, said his country was looking at the legalities to respond to the controversial JASTA legislation, through the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) and with the support of some European countries, the report added. “We cannot accept this law, which contradicts international principles and values,” Elvan told the newspaper, adding that a whole country “cannot be accused of terrorism because of some attempts perpetrated by terrorists during the events of September 11, 2001.” Elvan pledged Turkey’s support for Saudi Arabia on the matter, and said such a law would directly harm the United States. Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, he added, had already described JASTA as a big mistake and announced his support to the Kingdom. The Turkish minister said he believed Saudi and turkey were targeted because they both supported peace and ‘contribute to the establishment of security and stability in the region’ the report added. Elvan has been in Saudi where he arrived earlier in the week on an official visit, the newspaper added.

Afghan officials say the Taliban are still managing to hold out in the northern city of Kunduz as fighting there continues for the fifth day since the insurgents launched an all-out assault. Gen. Qasim Jungalbagh, provincial police chief, said on Friday that government forces advanced overnight, pushing Taliban insurgents from residential areas in the east and west. Jungalbagh says five members of the security forces were killed and another seven wounded. He says three civilians were also killed. The head of the provincial council, Mohammad Yusouf Ayubi, says people are continuing to leave for neighboring provinces. The U.N.’s humanitarian agency has warned of a looming humanitarian crisis as food and water run short. The attack began Monday, a year after the insurgents overran the city.

Ethiopia

Headline:         Ethiopian protesters attack factories in Africa’s rising economic star

Protesters in Ethiopia damaged almost a dozen mostly foreign-owned factories and flower farms and destroyed scores of vehicles this week, adding economic casualties to a rising death toll in a wave of unrest over land grabs and rights. The violence has cast a shadow over a nation where a state-led industrial drive has created one of Africa’s fastest growing economies, but where the government has also faced rising international criticism and popular opposition to its authoritarian approach to development. The flare-up followed the death of at least 55 people in a stampede on Sunday when police fired tear gas and shot into the air to disperse demonstrators in the Oromiya region near the capital. It raises to more than 450 the number of people rights groups and opponents say have been killed in unrest since 2015. A U.S. researcher was killed on Tuesday when her car was attacked by stone-throwers near Addis Ababa.

At least 22 soldiers were killed in Niger on Thursday when unknown assailants attacked a camp for Malian refugees, the West African nation’s Prime Minister Brigi Rafini said. The attack targeted a camp in the village of Tassalit in Niger’s Tahoua region, around 525 km (326 miles) northeast of the capital Niamey. “We received information of an attack on the camp in Tassalit. For the moment we are told there are 22 dead, but that is not a total death toll,” he said in comments broadcast on state-run television TeleSahel. “The death toll could increase.” Rafini gave no further information concerning the suspected identities of the attackers or whether any civilians had been killed or wounded. Niger’s small army is currently battling Boko Haram militants who launch raids across its southern border from Nigeria while seeking to prevent an overflow of attacks from Mali.

Headline:     Germany moves to run its own EU army – leaving both Brussels & NATO in new crisis

Despite Britain’s move to block an EU army, a growing number of experts believe a recent German defense paper shows Berlin has ambitions to run an EU army, and has a plan to cut through Brussels red tape and create one by itself. But at what cost to NATO? While EU defense ministers openly discuss with NATO chiefs how to create an EU army, many might think the haste for the EU to go ahead with such a grandiose plan stems from its own credibility being at an all-time low in the wake of Brexit. For EU federalists in Brussels, there is indeed some truth in this. But Brussels is also worried about being left behind or dwarfed by Germany’s own plans which would leave the EU in a weak position to negotiate who gets to call the shots in an official EU army, when it is finally created. And the EU has good reason to worry. Germany is impatient and is looking to position itself as the military leader of a coalition of EU countries which would no longer take orders from NATO, but also would not necessarily even be part of an official EU army.

Headline:       Philippines tells US no joint patrols in South China Sea

The Philippine defense chief said Friday he told the US military that plans for joint patrols and naval exercises in the disputed South China Sea have been put on hold, the first concrete break in defense cooperation after months of increasingly strident comments by the country’s new president. Defense Secretary Delfin Lorenzana also said that 107 US troops involved in operating surveillance drones against Muslim militants would be asked to leave the southern part of the country once the Philippines acquires those intelligence-gathering capabilities in the near future. According to Lorenzana, Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte, who in recent weeks has become increasingly outspoken and hostile against the US, also wants to halt the 28 military exercises that are carried out with US forces each year. Duterte has said he wants an ongoing US-Philippine amphibious beach landing exercise to be the last in his six-year presidency, as he backs away from what he views as too much dependence on the US. “This year would be the last,” Duterte said of military exercises involving the Americans in a speech on Friday.

Headline:   Facebook is talking to the White House about giving you ‘free’ Internet. Here’s why that may be controversial.

Facebook has been in talks for months with U.S. government officials and wireless carriers with an eye toward unveiling an American version of an app that has caused controversy abroad, according to multiple people familiar with the matter. The social media giant is trying to determine how to roll out its program, known as Free Basics, in the United States without triggering the regulatory scrutiny that effectively killed a version of the app in India earlier this year. If Facebook succeeds with its U.S. agenda for Free Basics — which has not been previously reported — it would mark a major victory for the company as it seeks to connect millions more to the Web, and to its own platform.

Headline:  Pound-Dollar Parity Is Now a Possibility for Options Traders

What was close to unthinkable for the pound before the Brexit vote is now firmly on some traders’ minds. They’re betting sterling will tumble to parity with the dollar, a level unseen in the U.K. currency’s history. In recent days, a number of wagers were put on for a one-for-one exchange rate, according to Depository Trust & Clearing Corp. data. The pound, which had already been struggling this week amid growing talk of a so-called hard Brexit, plunged 6.1 percent in Asian hours on Friday to a 31-year low of $1.1841. The slump has made the possibility of a historic $1 level more real: a Bloomberg forecasting model, based on implied volatility, shows about a 7 percent chance of it happening within a year, compared with 3.2 percent yesterday.

Hunger is expected to reach emergency levels by the end of the year in drought-hit southern Madagascar, where many families have already been forced to sell their homes or land, or migrate, the World Food Program (WFP) has warned. At least 1 million people need food and cash aid, and some 200,000 pregnant women and children under five need treatment for acute hunger, the U.N. agency said. Four out of nine districts in the southern tip of the country are likely to fall to emergency hunger levels by the end of the year, according to preliminary results of a food assessment carried by out by WFP and other agencies. The survey also showed that three more districts could follow unless swift action is taken. The districts are currently in phase three of a five-point scale used by food agencies, where five is famine.

Venezuelan doctors on Thursday warned of a diphtheria outbreak in the crisis-stricken country, calling on the government to boost availability of scarce vaccines and antibiotics to stem the disease which local media and the opposition report has killed some two dozen people. Last seen in Venezuela in 1992, diphtheria has been spreading in the southern jungle state of Bolivar, according to a statement by two local public health associations on Thursday. “We’re very worried because there could be an epidemic in the rest of the country,” infectious disease specialist Doctor Ana Carvajal, one of the authors of the report, told Reuters. The statement said 17 people had died from diphtheria in Venezuela, citing local media. Opposition lawmaker and oncologist Jose Manuel Olivares earlier this week put the number at 22.

The Israel Navy took control of the Zaytouna-Oliva flotilla Wednesday which set sail from Barcelona in an attempt to breach the Israeli naval blockade of the Gaza Strip. Commenting on how the incident unfolded, an IDF official said, “the flotilla was stopped without resistance 35 miles from the Israeli coast. There were 13 women aboard and the boat is on its way to Ashdod and will arrive within an hour.” The IDF Spokesperson’s Unit also released a statement on the matter. “In accordance with the decisions of the political leadership and after calls to the Zaytouna flotilla by the navy to stop, which were rejected, sailors from the Navy took control of the boat before it arrived at the Gaza Strip,” the statement read. “The process of taking control was short and resulted in no injuries.

The U.S. administration published an unusually harsh statement on Wednesday against a plan to build an alternative settlement for residents of the illegal outpost of Amona. The statement, signed by Mark Toner, deputy spokesman for the State Department, drew an unusual linkage between the signing of the defense aid agreement with Israel and criticism of settlement building. Toner stressed that the U.S. views advancement of the plan as a violation of a commitment by Netanyahu’s government not to establish any new settlements in the West Bank. The State Department’s statement comes against the backdrop of the Civil Administration Planning Commission’s decision last Wednesday to approve a plan for the construction of 98 housing units in the new settlement to be established next to the Shvut Rachel settlement.

While he is stationed in the north, Alian emphasizes that events on Israel’s southern border have a tremendous impact. “A lot of things in Gaza are relevant to the Lebanese front: Understanding the enemy and who we are dealing with, his fighting techniques and tactics – things that [the enemy] learns and improves upon.” One way or another, he added, a third conflict with Lebanon “is just a matter of time.”

The Islamic State of Iraq and Al-Sham (ISIS) and their former allies from Jabhat Al-Nusra clashed near the Syrian border on Tuesday, resulting in a flurry of skirmishes that accumulated a high death toll for both terrorist groups. According to local reports, ISIS carried out an attack against Jabhat Al-Nusra near the ‘Arsal Barrens on Tuesday; this prompted the aforementioned jihadist group to mount a counter-assault in order to beat back their former allies. While the terrorists were exchanging blows in the ‘Arsal Barrens, the Lebanese Army began to indiscriminately fire rockets and artillery shells at both forces. In addition to the Lebanese Army’s shelling, the Syrian Arab Air Force (SAAYF) reportedly carried out a few airstrikes along the Lebanese-Syrian border, forcing the terrorist groups to disperse after suffering numerous casualties.

Syria Headline:    Russian Army to hold drills in Africa for first time

Russia has deployed an advanced anti-missile system to Syria for the first time, three US officials tell Fox News, the latest indication that Moscow continues to ramp up its military operations in Syria in support of President Bashar al-Assad. It comes after Russia’s actions led to the collapse of a cease-fire and the cut-off of direct talks with the U.S. While Moscow’s motives are not certain, officials say the new weapon system could potentially counter any American cruise missile attack in Syria. Components of the SA-23 Gladiator anti-missile and anti-aircraft system, which has a range of roughly 150 miles, arrived over the weekend “on the docks” of a Russian naval base along Syria’s Mediterranean coastal city of Tartus, two US officials said. It is the first time Russia has deployed the SA-23 system outside its borders, according to one Western official citing a recent intelligence assessment. The missiles and associated components are still in their crates and are not yet operational, according to the officials.

 Syria Headline:    Pentagon paid PR firm $540 million to make fake terrorist videos

The Pentagon paid a UK PR firm half a billion dollars to create fake terrorist videos in Iraq in a secret propaganda campaign exposed by the Bureau of Investigative Journalism. PR firm Bell Pottinger, known for its array of controversial clients including the Saudi government and Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet’s foundation, worked with the US military to create the propaganda in a secretive operation. The firm reported to the CIA, the National Security Council and the Pentagon on the project with a mandate to portray Al-Qaeda in a negative light and track suspected sympathizers. Both the White House and General David Petraeus, the former general who shared classified information with his mistress, signed off on the content produced by the agency. The Bell Pottinger operation started soon after the US invasion of Iraq and was tasked with promoting the“democratic elections” for the administration before moving on to more lucrative psychological and information operations. Former employee Martin Wells told the Bureau how he found himself working in Iraq after being hired as a video editor by Bell Pottinger. Within 48 hours, he was landing in Baghdad to edit content for secret“psychological operations” at Camp Victory. The firm created television ads showing Al-Qaeda in a negative light as well as creating content to look as though it had come from “Arabic TV”. Crews were sent out to film bombings with low quality video. The firm would then edit it to make it look like news footage. They would craft scripts for Arabic soap operas where characters would reject terrorism with happy consequences. The firm also created fake Al-Qaeda propaganda videos, which were then planted by the military in homes they raided. Employees were given specific instructions to create the videos. “We need to make this style of video and we’ve got to use Al-Qaeda’s footage,” Wells was told. “We need it to be 10 minutes long, and it needs to be in this file format, and we need to encode it in this manner.” The videos were created to play on Real Player which needs an internet connection to run. The CDs were embedded with a code linking to Google Analytics which allowed the military to track IP addresses that the videos were played on.

Syria Headline:    Obama administration considering strikes on Assad, again

U.S. military strikes against the Assad regime will be back on the table Wednesday at the White House, when top national security officials in the Obama administration are set to discuss options for the way forward in Syria. But there’s little prospect President Obama will ultimately approve them. Inside the national security agencies, meetings have been going on for weeks to consider new options to recommend to the president to address the ongoing crisis in Aleppo, where Syrian and Russian aircraft continue to perpetrate the deadliest bombing campaign the city has seen since the five-year-old civil war began. A meeting of the Principals Committee, which includes Cabinet-level officials, is scheduled for Wednesday. A meeting of the National Security Council, which could include the president, could come as early as this weekend. Last Wednesday, at a Deputies Committee meeting at the White House, officials from the State Department, the CIA and the Joint Chiefs of Staff discussed limited military strikes against the regime as a means of forcing Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad to pay a cost for his violations of the cease-fire, disrupt his ability to continue committing war crimes against civilians in Aleppo, and raise the pressure on the regime to come back to the negotiating table in a serious way.

Syria Headline:    Dabiq close to COLLAPSE from US-led airstrikes at APOCALYPSE site

ISLAMIC State (ISIS) is close to collapse and may completely crumble as US-led coalition forces move in to bomb the key northern Syrian town of Dabiq, which Daesh believes will be the site of an almighty clash of civilisations. Warplanes have carried out bombing rads on the small town of Dabiq, where ISIS militants are desperately holding out despite the fierce onslaught. Dabiq is of great religious significance to ISIS as it is named in Islamic mythology as the site of an apocalyptic battle between Muslim and Christian armies. Free Syrian Army (FSA) rebels captured new areas in Aleppo’s northern countryside earlier this week and the offensive on Dabiq could see the town fall within hours. A spokesman for the Syrian Turkmen rebels, who are involved in the fight to free the town from ISIS, said: “If Dabiq collapses, ISIS will also collapse.” Mostafa Sejari, from the FSA-linked al-Mutasim Brigade, said: “We expect that the battle of Dabiq will be the fiercest ever. “Daesh [ISIS] has brought hundreds of fighters into the area, including their special forces, to confront us. “Daesh has built its myth in Dabiq, exploiting the ignorance and lack of knowledge among people and taking advantage of history and religion to achieve its evil project. “By controlling Dabiq, we break the myth of Daesh and open a road to reach Marea. “Controlling Dabiq is just a matter of time, God willing.”

Moscow said the shelling is “result of the actions of those who, like the US and some of its allies, provoke the continued bloodshed in Syria and flirt with militants and extremists of all flavors”, vowing to take “all necessary measures” to restore peace and security to Syria.

A large number of Syrian Arab Army (SAA) reinforcements arrived in Deir Ezzor on Tuesday after completing they completed basic training in rural Damascus. According to a military source from the 104th Airborne Brigade of the Republican Guard, the reinforcements were transported to Deir Ezzor via helicopter; these soldiers were then transferred to the 137th Brigade’s headquarters near Jabal Thardeh. As many as 10 helicopters flew these soldiers to Deir Ezzor on Tuesday, marking the first time since the U.S. Coalition’s bombing that reinforcements were sent to this volatile front in eastern Syria. In the coming days, ISIS is expected to launch another major attack on the Deir Ezzor Industrial District and Military Airport, as they look to tighten the siege on the provincial capital.

The Syrian Arab Army (SAA) resumed their wide-scale offensive in the West Ghouta region of rural Damascus on Wednesday after repelling the counter-assault launched by the jihadist rebels last night. Led by the 7th Armored Division and the 42nd Brigade of the 4th Mechanized Division, the Syrian Armed Forces captured several farms surrounding the key town of Deir Khabiyeh, including the sites the jihadist rebels seized during last night’s assault. According to an Al-Masdar field correspondent in Damascus, the Syrian Armed Forces killed several enemy combatants from Jabhat Fateh Al-Sham (formerly Al-Nusra Front) and Harakat Ahrar Al-Sham, while also destroying 8 technical vehicles that were armed with a variety of anti-aircraft machine guns.

Syria Headline:    Suicide bombing kills 25+ civilians at Hasakah wedding

At least 30 people have been killed in a suicide bomb attack at a Kurdish wedding in north-eastern Syria. The bomber blew himself up on Monday night at a hall in Tal Tawil, outside Hassakeh city, reportedly while the bride and groom were exchanging vows. There were conflicting reports about whether the groom was among the dead. So-called Islamic State said one of its militants had attacked a “large gathering” of Kurdish fighters with a machine-gun and and explosive vest. Syria’s official Sana news agency reported that 30 people were killed and 90 others wounded, while the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights put the death toll at 31. The UK-based monitoring group said the groom, Zaradesht Mustafa Fatimi, was among those killed. One relative disputed the report, saying the groom was only lightly wounded but that his father and brother were both killed.

Iraq Headline:    PMU hit back at Erdogan’s statement that Mosul should be Sunni-only after ISIS

Iraq Headline: ANALYSIS: Turkey, an occupying power or Iraq’s saviour from IS?

Turkey’s military presence in Iraq is intended for stability at a time when the country is deeply divided and Turkey does not aim to become an occupying force, Turkish deputy prime minister Numan Kurtulmus said on Wednesday. Turkish forces are at Iraq’s Bashiqa camp, at the request of Iraqi Kurdish President Masoud Barzani, to train the local forces, Kurtulmus said. “Turkey will not allow this to become a matter of debate,” he told reporters. Meanwhile, Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu ALSO said the Bashiqa camp in Iraq, at the centre of a dispute between the two neighbors, had been set up to train local forces in fight against ISIS and Baghdad knew it had been established. “Bashiqa camp was set up within the knowledge of Iraqi administration,” Cavusoglu told a news conference. “Baghdad officials have visited this camp and have even provided financial support to it in the past,” he said. Turkey and Iraq have summoned one other’s ambassadors in a mounting diplomatic stand-off after Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi warned Turkey that it risked triggering a “regional war” by keeping troops in Iraqi territory. Iraq’s Foreign Ministry summoned Turkeys’ ambassador to Baghdad to condemn allegedly “provocative” comments made by Turkish Prime Minister Binali Yildirim on Tuesday about the planned operation to dislodge ISIS militants from the northern city of Mosul, said the ministry’s spokesman, Ahmad Jamal. Yildrim told ruling party legislators in parliament that the Iraqi operation could spark Shiite-Sunni sectarian tensions if the majority Sunni region around Mosul were to be placed under Shiite militia control after the offensive. However, it is still unclear if the Shiite militias, the core of the Iraqi paramilitary forces battling ISIS, will take an essential part in the Mosul operation.

Kurdish Headline:  Kurds call for protection from ISIS gas attack in upcoming Mosul offensive

After an ISIS-led deadly attack hit a Kurdish wedding in Hasakah city on Monday, the Kurdish National Council (KNC) asked for the return of 2,000 Syrian Kurds trained as Peshmerga forces in Iraqi Kurdistan. “This perfidious crime shows the importance to protect the Kurdish territories and the security of the people who are living here,” said Kamiran Hajo, chief of the KNC’s Foreign Relations Office. “The KNC is determined to establish this security and to intensify the fight against terrorism. Regarding this, it is indispensable to enable the return of the Peshmerga of Rojava to Syrian Kurdistan to prevent such horrible attacks on civil life,” he said. The Syrian Kurdish Peshmerga were trained by the Kurdistan Democratic Party (KDP) in Iraqi Kurdistan. “We demand the PYD [Democratic Union Party] to dismiss its claim of exclusive control in Rojava and to give the KNC the opportunity to apply its energies even more to protect the Kurdish territories in Syria,” the KNC official stated.

Headline:   Turkish troops clash with ISIS in Syria

A Turkish soldier was killed in northern Syria during a clash with Islamic State (ISIS) militants early on Wednesday. According to the Dogan News Agency the clash occurred in the village of Ziyara, which ISIS attacked and attempted to infiltrate. Three other Turkish soldiers were also wounded in that attack. The Turkish military said its forces killed 18 ISIS militants in the attack. The Turkish Army released a statement saying that Turkish warplanes targeted ISIS forces in the same area in support of its forces on the ground. Also on Wednesday, two Turkish-backed Free Syrian Army (FSA) fighters were killed fighting ISIS southwest of the border-town of Al-Rai in a separate incident. The killing of the Turkish soldier on Wednesday comes nearly a month after three Turkish soldiers were killed in Syria in early September when ISIS launched “a rocket attack” against two Turkish tanks near Al-Rai.

Headline:     Did Turkey abandon Aleppo to fight Syrian Kurds?

A rumored Turkish-Russian deal would give Ankara a free hand to deal with Kurdish groups in the north in exchange for cutting support to rebels in Syria’s second city. Developments on the ground in Syria indicate the possible blossoming of an agreement between Turkey and Russia over the conflict, illustrated by the changing priorities of the government in Ankara. The recent Turkish-led offensive against ISIS inside Syria was not met with any resistance by Russia or the Syrian regime, even though Turkey has been explicitly pro-opposition since the early stages of the revolution in 2011. The offensive was preceded by a Turkish-Russian rapprochement, which has been widely cited to explain Russia’s acquiescence to the military action. Similarly, the recent unprecedented attacks by the Syrian regime and Russia to capture rebel-held eastern Aleppo have not led to an increase in the support provided to rebel groups by their backers, namely Turkey. Although the details of this possible new alliance remain largely unknown, rumors are circulating about a behind-the-scenes agreement between Russia and Turkey that would allow the latter to intervene and check the power of Syrian Kurdish groups in the north in exchange for reducing their support for rebels fighting Assad in Aleppo.

Iran

Headline:  Report: Secret Obama deal freed up funding early for Iran missile program

The Obama administration forged a secret deal to lift sanctions on an Iranian bank that was a primary funding stream for the Islamic Republic’s ballistic missile program, a report said. The deal called for the immediate lifting of sanctions on Iran’s Bank Sepah – eight years before the sanctions were scheduled to be lifted under last summer’s nuclear deal, according to an Oct. 4 report by the Washington Free Beacon. The Treasury Department described Bank Sepah in 2007 as the “linchpin of Iran’s missile procurement.” A senior adviser to Congress told the Free Beacon that the Obama administration misled the public to avoid sparking outrage over its decision to drop sanctions on the top funder of Iran’s ballistic missile program. “The Obama administration couldn’t tell the American public that it had just unleashed Iran’s ballistic missile program as one part of an enormous ransom extracted by Iran,” the source said. “So instead they ran to friendly reporters to misleadingly boast about how successful their diplomacy was, while they were bribing Iran with billions of dollars and military concessions to stay at the table.” The Foundation for Defense of Democracies, a Washington, D.C.-based think tank, described the administration’s move as putting Iran’s ballistic missile program “back in business.”

The United States military says it conducted airstrikes in the northern Afghan city of Kunduz Wednesday to defend government forces who are battling resilient Taliban insurgents for a third day in a row. The fighting comes as key international and regional stakeholders met in Brussels on the sidelines of a conference and agreed to renew efforts to promote peace and reconciliation between the Afghan government and the Taliban. The NATO-led Resolute Support mission in Afghanistan said Wednesday the Afghan government still controls Kunduz and there is sporadic fighting within the city as national security forces continue to secure the area. “U.S. forces today conducted two air engagements to defend friendly forces who were receiving enemy fire and continue to assist [Afghan partners] as needed,” the alliance said in a brief statement.

US military aircraft pounded the Daesh terror group positions in the extremists former Libyan stronghold of Sirte over the weekend, as the US air campaign entered its third month, the Pentagon said on Monday. According to the US military’s Africa Command, US pilots conducted 20 air strikes on Sunday alone, most of them against “enemy fighting positions”. When the Pentagon announced its latest front in the war against Daesh on August 1, officials said the campaign to help local forces push the extremists from the coastal city of Sirte would likely be quick, taking “weeks, not months”. The military action followed a request by the UN-supported Libyan Government of National Accord (GNA), and President Barack Obama’s administration has stressed that ongoing US involvement would be framed by the interim Libyan government’s needs.

He said “the situation remains very tense, very dangerous” in a buffer strip in southwestern Western Sahara where Moroccan security forces are facing Polisario Front fighters. “Anything can start the confrontation,” Salek warned.

Headline:  U.S. top court denies Obama request to rehear major immigration case

A report from the European Commission against Racism and Intolerance (ECRI) found there was an increase in hate speech and racist violence in the UK from 2009 to March 2016. Blaming the press, ECRI Chair Christian Ahlund, said: “It is no coincidence that racist violence is on the rise in the UK at the same time as we see worrying examples of intolerance and hate speech in the newspapers, online and even among politicians.” The report makes a whopping 23 recommendations to Theresa May’s Government for changes to criminal law, the freedom of the press, crime reporting and equality law. In a sweeping statement, he said: “The Brexit referendum seems to have led to a further rise in ‘anti-foreigner’ sentiment, making it even more important that the British authorities take the steps outlined in our report as a matter of priority.” The report lays into the British press and urges the government to “give more rigorous training” to reporters. In the 83-page report, the Commission said: “ECRI considers that, in light of the fact that Muslims are increasingly under the spotlight as a result of recent ISIS-related terrorist acts around the world, fuelling prejudice against Muslims shows a reckless disregard, not only for the dignity of the great majority of Muslims in the United Kingdom, but also for their safety.

Headline:       Ansar Dine claims series of attacks in northern Mali

Ansar Dine, a largely Tuareg front group for al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM), has claimed credit for a series of attacks on UN forces yesterday near the town of Aguelhok in the Kidal Region. The strikes included two separate incidents of rocket and mortar shelling and ambushes using improvised explosive devices (IEDs). The first occurrence of shelling occurred with Grad rockets, which targeted the UN base in Aguelhok. The rockets did little damage, but it was reported that one vehicle was destroyed. After the shelling, a Chadian patrol team mounted a combing operation near the area where the shells were fired. Ansar Dine claims that when the Chadian troops were near the area, it ambushed the patrol with an IED. One peacekeeper was killed in the blast, while another died from his injuries later in the day. After the IED, an ambulance belonging to the Chadian contingent at Aguelhok was hit by another IED trying to make its way to the earlier patrol. As this was happening, mortars were again fired into the UN camp. Elsewhere in Mali, suspected jihadists targeted a Malian military checkpoint near Timbuktu today, leaving one soldier dead. Two civilians are also reported to have sustained injuries as a result of the assault. While no group has so far taken responsibility, the Timbuktu Region is the main area of operations for AQIM’s al Furqan Battalion, which is part of its Sahara Emirate.

Headline:      ISIS appoints new Boko Haram leader to spearhead Islamist insurgency in Nigeria

The disputed leader of Boko Haram knows how to cheat death — and do it in style. After the Nigerian army declared him “fatally wounded” on Aug. 19, Abubakar Shekau appeared in a new video last week to mock the government that has claimed to have killed him at least four times already. “To the despot Nigerian government: Die with envy. I’m not dead,” a man purporting to be Shekau says in the video. But if Shekau looks untouchable in the fight against the Nigerian army, he has proved much more vulnerable to threats from within his organization. Less than 18 months after he led Boko Haram into a high-profile partnership with the Islamic State, the Iraq- and Syria-based caliphate shunted him aside in favor of a new representative in Nigeria. In an interview published in the Islamic State’s propaganda magazine in August, Abu Musab al-Barnawi, the son of the late Boko Haram founder Mohammed Yusuf, was named the new leader of Boko Haram.

The huge four-day “civil defence” drill has set alarm bells ringing in Washington and London, with tensions already high over disagreements in Syria. Following a breakdown in communication between the USA and Russia, the Kremlin has now organised the huge emergency practice drill – either as a show of force or something more sinister. The drill will prepare Russian citizens for “large natural and man-made disasters”, according to the country’s Ministery for Civil Defence, Emergencies and Elimination of Consequences of Natural Disaster. The ministry revealed 40 million civilians, 200,000 emergency rescuers and 50,000 units of equipment are involved in the war game, which is running from October 4 to October 7. A spokesman said in a statement: “The main goal of the drill is to practice organisation of management during civil defence events and emergency and fire management, to check preparedness of management bodies and forces of civil defence on all levels to respond to natural and man-made disasters and to take civil defence measures.” They explained the scheme would be divided into three stages: awareness, planning and evacuation.

FOUR European countries were forced to scramble fighter jets after two Russian Blackjack bombers blasted across the continent, it has been revealed. The UK, Norway, France and Spain all intercepted the TU-160 planes as they made a daring flight from Norway to northern Spain and back. During the flight, the bombers swooped across the top of Scotland, before skirting the west coast of Ireland, completing their route near northern Spain. Spanish media has reported it is the furthest south such an operation has had to take place – while the frequency of Russian bombers being intercepted by Nato aircraft has significantly increased. Although the incident occurred on September 22, the full details only emerged following an statement from the French Ministry of Defence. According to the statement, the two bombers were first detected by Norway, which scrambled two F-16 jets to accompany them to the north of Scotland – where they were then intercepted by RAF Typhoon aircraft. French Rafale fighter planes then picked up the bombers after they skirted Ireland’s west coast, before Spain sent two F-18 jets to intercept the Russian planes north of Bilbao. The RAF has confirmed that the Russian jets did not enter UK airspace at any point.

Headline:      Mass protests make Polish govt reconsider blanket abortion ban

Nationwide demos staged by women in Poland against a proposal for a blanket abortion ban may have achieved their goal, with a Polish minister admitting the protests gave authorities some “food for thought.” “I’d like to reassure those who fear that abortions in Poland will be completely banned. The total abortion project certainly won’t pass. Abortions will stay in place for women who were raped or whose life or health is in danger,” Jaroslaw Gowin, Poland’s Minister of Science and Higher Education, said on Wednesday on Radio Koszalin, according to Polish Radio’s IAR news agency. The mass protest, dubbed “Black Monday,” saw some 100,000 women taking to the streets in various Polish cities, including Warsaw, Gdansk, Wroclaw and others. The protests “gave us food for thought and certainly taught us humility,” Gowin said, also noting that the rallies couldn’t have gone unnoticed. The protesters included women who supported the ruling Law and Justice party (PiS) in last October’s election, which is a worrying factor for the Polish government. “They could lose the two sections of the electorate that helped them succeed,” said Aleksander Smolar, a liberal political analyst with the Stefan Batory Foundation, according to Reuters. Nearly half of the country’s population supported Monday’s protests, an opinion poll carried out for the liberal OKO.press showed.

Headline:    Christians fear displacement from Old City Damascus: activists

A Syrian Christian opposition group has voiced fears that the Bashar al-Assad regime is seeking to displace Christians from the historic center of Damascus, known popularly as the Old City. In a statement issued Sunday, the Syrian Christians for Peace warned of the “deliberate and systemic [efforts] to displace the remaining Christians from the Old City of Damascus.” The humanitarian organization—which seeks to challenge the narrative of Christian support for the regime—said that the government was purposely ruining the “security and moral” situation of Christian quarters in the Old City in a bid to “prompt [Christians] to sell their homes.” “The Syrian Christians for Peace condemns the deliberate disregard for the values and ethics of the Christian-majority areas of Damascus, especially in Bab Touma,” the statement also said. The Syrian Christians for Peace claimed that Christian residents have been complaining that their neighborhoods have transformed into “hotbeds of immorality,” in reference to the large number of bars and nightclubs opened in the past months in the residential areas, which the group said was “violating the sanctity and security” of the historic neighborhoods in central Damascus. The Syrian Christians for Peace called on “all Christian clergymen to take a firm stand against these practices and to stop favoring an authoritarian regime that killed more than half-a-million [people], displaced ten million and destroyed half the country.”

A United Nations official said yesterday that Hurricane Matthew has created the biggest humanitarian crisis in Haiti since the devastating earthquake of January 2010.

Wahba said officials have received reports of destroyed houses and overcrowded hospitals and shortages of fresh water. The hospital in the city of Les Cayes, he said, had its roof blown off. Damage appeared to be widespread, but because of poor communication, blocked roads and washed-out bridges the full extent of the damage was not immediately clear, nor was the number of deaths.

Headline:     Analysts reveal shock SUNSPOTS discovery

Analysis of the sun has revealed that there has been a sharp decrease in the amount of sunspots this year. Sunspots release solar flares and vast amounts of magnetic energy. For the fourth time this year, the sun has gone blank, which has led some experts to believe that a new Ice Age is on the horizon and could hit us by 2019. According to SpaceWeather.com, the occurrence of a spotless sun is going to become more regular. It said: “There will be lots of spotless suns. “At first, the blank stretches will be measured in days; later in weeks and months. “The current blank spell is the fourth such interval of 2016, so far.” Meteorologist Paul Dorian believes that this is indicative behaviour of an approaching Ice Age.

Headline: Backlash to World Economic Order Clouds Outlook at IMF Talks

Headline: Russia is hoarding gold at an alarming pace

Policy-making elites converge on Washington this week for meetings that epitomize a faith in globalization that’s at odds with the growing backlash against the inequities it creates. From Britain’s vote to leave the European Union to Donald Trump’s championing of “America First,” pressures are mounting to roll back the economic integration that has been a hallmark of gatherings of the IMF and World Bank for more than 70 years. Fed by stagnant wages and diminishing job security, the populist uprising threatens to depress a world economy that International Monetary Fund Managing Director Christine Lagarde says is already “weak and fragile.” The calls for less integration and more trade barriers also pose risks for elevated financial markets that remain susceptible to sudden swings in investor sentiment, as underscored by recent jitters over Frankfurt-based Deutsche Bank AG’s financial health. “The backlash against globalization is manifesting itself in increased nationalistic sentiment, against the outside world and in favor of increasing isolation,” said Louis Kuijs, head of Asia economics at Oxford Economics in Hong Kong and a former IMF official. “If we lose consensus on what kind of a world we want to have, the world will probably be worse off.”

To answer the question asked of me about the  Baba Vanga prophecies, I want to make it very clear that anyone who tells you they know what is going to happen in the future better be pointing to what the Bible has to say because that is the only way to be safe in making predictions. If you tell people exactly what Jesus said you will be telling truth because Jesus cannot lie and those things which He says will come to pass as we have been seeing in our generation.  So many people have stated they know what is going to happen and over and over again those people have been proven to be false. Baba Vanga is a great example.  Keep in mind, the Bible is 100% on the mark with prophecy. On the flip side, if a person says a host of things over the years there is a chance that one or two of what is said may happen just by chance. As for the facts look at Baba’s predictions from 2010 to 2014 and you will see that nothing of what she said would happen actually happened.

Baba Predictions:

2010 – World War III. War will begin in November 2010 and end in October 2014. Will begin as usual, then nuclear will be used initially, and then chemical weapons. (FAILED)

2011 – As a result of the fallout of nuclear fallout in the northern hemisphere will not be any animals or vegetation. Then Muslims will wage war against chemical surviving Europeans. (NO NUKES AND NO FALL OUT PROPHECY (FAILED)

2014 – Most people will suffer skin cancer and other skin diseases (a consequence of chemical warfare) (FAILED)

Why people even listen to this crap is behind me but they do. Check out what Baba says for 2016 and on and, you will see her predictions are very general in nature. Not only that but, anyone who read the Bible knows what to look for so making a prediction based on the Bible but making it appear as if you are predicting an event is really not honest.  For example:

2016 – Europe almost lonely (empty).  

If you read the book of Daniel you know that the Europe will have trouble because God told Daniel in chapter 7 and 9 that would be the cause when the revived Roman Empire came back so, making a prediction that Europe almost lonely is nothing knew!

 2018 – New China becomes a world power. Developing countries in turn operated from exploiters. 

Anyone who has been watching China in the news can see how fast they are growing in power so predicting China’s rise has been a given for years.

2023 – A little bit of change in the Earth’s orbit.

Here again the God warns us about the Earth moving back and forth in the last days. Prophecy Sign: In Isaiah 24:20 God told Isaiah the following: “The earth shall reel to and fro like a drunkard, and shall be removed like a cottage; and the transgression thereof shall be heavy upon it; and it shall fall, and not rise again.” There is no question such a reeling can affect the Earth’s orbit. Looks like Baba read the Bible and made her own statement which made her look like a true prophet. However, since what most of what she stated already failed we know for sure she is not a true prophet of God. 

2025 – Europe still little settled.

Again, the above prediction is so general.

2028 – Creating a new energy source (probably a controlled thermonuclear reaction). Hunger is gradually being overcome. Launched a manned spacecraft to Venus.

Once again, people have been working on a new energy source involving thermonuclear reaction for years and I believe it is possible to get this type of new energy source. God told Daniel our generation who be known as the increase in knowledge generation so it stands to reason the chances of our generation getting this type of energy is very high. Every time someone sets a date that God has supposed to have revealed to someone that date comes and goes without that any fulfilled as what was supposed to happen on that date. I am sure the 2028 date will be added to that list.

2033 – The polar ice are melting. Greater levels of the oceans.

Jesus in the book of Revelation and in the gospels tells us over and over again in the last days there will be droughts, intense heat from the sun, and signs in the Sun, Moon, and Stars. Knowing what Jesus stated and knowing the heat is coming you don’t have to be some kind of great prophet to tell people the ice will melt and the waters will raise. What do you think the affects of intense heat from the Sun is going to do? Of course, melt polar ice and the waters rise! I went to Alaska to report on the ice melting and oceans raising years ago so I could put the facts in my prophecy book. Baba’s prophecy is already to late because it didn’t start in 2028 like she say, it has been going on now for the past 20-30 years.  

2076 – Classless Society (communism).

Baba once again could have read Revelation 13:16-17 which says,  ¹⁶ And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: ¹⁷ And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.  Anyone who read what Jesus said knows that a cashless society has to come to give the Antichrist world power so predicting it and taking credit for the prediction should all be given to Jesus Christ not someone who seems to have borrowed it from Jesus.

I want to jump to Baba’s 4509 prophecy – Getting to Know God. The man has finally been reached such a level of development that can communicate with God.

I want to close with Baba’s above statement. On one has to wait until 4509 to communicate with God. You can communicate with the Lord today if you want. The two most important types of communication are between man and God and between human beings. Communication is more than just our ability to talk, but also to listen. As we communicate with God, the first part of that communication is listening. God’s primary ways of communication with us are through the His Word (Romans 10:17) and by the Holy Spirit (John 14:26). God speaks to all believers through the vehicle of the Bible, which is all we need to equip us for the Christian life (2 Timothy 3:16). In order to fully understand God’s communication with us, we must be diligent to read, study, memorize and meditate on His Word. In short, stop listening to claims made by false prophets and start trusting what God is saying to you via His word from the Bible.

Headline:     ISIS cell in Jerusalem?

Six Jerusalem Arabs have been indicted for allegedly working to establish a cell of the ISIS terror organization inside Israel. The six were charged in a Jerusalem court of security offenses, assisting an enemy in war-time, and association with a terror group. The suspects are residents of the Shuafat and Anata neighborhoods. According to the indictment, from 2015 until August 2016, the suspects made efforts to enlist in ISIS and establish an ISIS cell inside Israel. Among other activities, the six organized study sessions to spread the terror group’s radical ideology. The indictment also revealed that some of the suspects attempted to travel to Syria to join the jihadist organization’s fight against the Assad regime. The suspects also reportedly planned terror attacks against Jews in Jerusalem and Tel Aviv.

Headline:  For Israeli Druze, the War in Syria Is a Horrifying Spectator Sport

In this hidden spot in the Golan Heights, the fighting in Syria is just 300 meters away. There’s a concealed site in the Israeli part of the Golan Heights, between the Druze villages of Bukata and Majdal Shams, east of the main road and adjacent to the fence marking the border, from where the war in Syria – which is singeing the border area between the Israeli and Syrian sections of this plateau – can be observed with the unaided eye. For those who have come to watch, every exploding shell is harrowing: It’s their relatives who are being battered. People from local Druze villages come here, ostensibly to witness the fate of their relatives in the village opposite that’s being shelled. Occasionally phone calls are made to the village, or text messages sent, to find out what’s happening and how people are doing. On weekends, Israeli Druze come here, too. It’s not the horrors of Aleppo, more a war of attrition that seems to have clear rules of its own. It’s said in the Golan Heights that Israel is preventing the Nusra Front rebels from capturing Khader, in Syria. All they can do is try to wear it down and terrorize its residents. Other than the area of Khader, however, a large Druze village of 11,000 people whose homes are scattered on the slopes of the hill across the way, the rebels here effectively control the whole boundary line with Israel, with either its support or its tacit agreement. Khader is on the left, defended by the local militia and the Syrian army, while to the right, seeking shelter among the trees, are the Nusra Front fighters.

Jordan will open a permanent office at NATO in early 2017, according to Brig. Gen. Mekhled Suheim, joint training director at the Jordan Armed Forces-Arab Army. “We asked for this a few years ago and NATO has finally approved it,” the officer said at a recent meeting with journalists at the King Abdullah II Special Operations Training Centre (KASOTC) to highlight NATO-funded training for Iraqi officers conducted at the facility. Jordan has 33 partnership goals to achieve with NATO, he said. “We have achieved six already and we have 27 goals to achieve now. Having a permanent office in NATO will help us speed up the fulfilment of these goals. We are already an enhanced opportunity partner with NATO, and having our staff there will help us open doors and boost the existing cooperation,” said Suheim. “Being there will enhance Jordan’s capabilities and will help increase the support we are receiving from the alliance in a wider variety of areas,” he added. The permanent office will work on increasing cooperation and support to Jordan, said Suheim, noting that the Kingdom needs additional technical support and defence capacity building.

Headline:      US warships sent to area where Iran-backed rebels attacked Saudi-led coalition ship

The U.S. Navy dispatched three warships near the southern coast of Yemen after four rockets hit and nearly sank a United Arab Emirates auxiliary ship Saturday, two U.S. defense officials told Fox News. Iran-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen claimed responsibility for the attack. There were no reported injuries to the Emerati crew. Al Jazeera reported on video of the attack. Iran supplied the Houthis with the “shoulder-fired rockets” that nearly destroyed the UAE ship, according to two U.S. officials. It was not immediately clear what type of rocket the rebels may have fired. Military officials sent the Navy warships to the southern end of the Bab al-Mandab Strait, also known as the Mandab Strait, which connects the Red Sea to the Gulf of Aden. Two U.S. Navy guided-missile destroyers, USS Mason and USS Nitze, armed with Tomahawk cruise missiles, Harpoon anti-ship missiles and an assortment of deck-mounted high-caliber machine guns, joined USS Ponce, a floating staging ship which includes a compliment of special operations forces, according to one official.

Egypt

Headline: China to finance Egypt’s $45 billion capital city in the desert

Headline:  Proposed new capital of Egypt

Egypt’s plan to build a glittering new capital city in the desert was written off by many as nothing more than a dream for a country with a struggling economy. That dream, however, appears headed for reality after China stepped in to bankroll much of the $45 billion project. China Fortune Land Development announced on Sept. 25 it would invest $20 billion in the project. That announcement followed the pledge of $15 billion from China’s state-owned construction company. Work has already begun for the as yet unnamed new capital 28 miles south of the current capital Cairo. The new city, located on a 270-square-mile slice of desert owned by the Egyptian army, would be home to some 5 million people. City planners envision a city with skyscrapers rivaling those in Dubai, green areas comparable to New York City’s Central Park, an international airport larger than London’s Heathrow and an amusement park on the scale of Disney World. Several hundred apartment buildings already have gone up in the new city, and construction crews are building roads and laying sewage lines. The target for completion of the new capital is 2021 (see links below)

In an often forgotten part of Isaiah there is a verse about Egypt:

Isaiah 19:18-25

¹⁸ In that day there will be five cities in the land of Egypt that speak the language of Canaan and swear allegiance to the Lord of hosts. One of these will be called the City of Destruction.¹⁹ In that day there will be an altar to the Lord in the midst of the land of Egypt, and a pillar to the Lord at its border. ²⁰ It will be a sign and a witness to the Lord of hosts in the land of Egypt. When they cry to the Lord because of oppressors, he will send them a savior and defender, and deliver them. ²¹ And the Lord will make himself known to the Egyptians, and the Egyptians will know the Lord in that day and worship with sacrifice and offering, and they will make vows to the Lord and perform them. ²² And the Lord will strike Egypt, striking and healing, and they will return to the Lord, and he will listen to their pleas for mercy and heal them. ²³ In that day there will be a highway from Egypt to Assyria, and Assyria will come into Egypt, and Egypt into Assyria, and the Egyptians will worship with the Assyrians. ²⁴ In that day Israel will be the third with Egypt and Assyria, a blessing in the midst of the earth, ²⁵ whom the Lord of hosts has blessed, saying, “Blessed be Egypt my people, and Assyria the work of my hands, and Israel my inheritance.”

‘iyr meaning the city

Herec meaning destruction

Since Isaiah calls it the city of destruction, although the rest of the verse tells us that 5 cities will speak the Holy language and there will be an altar of the Lord in Egypt, what does this mean? Many commentaries believe that Isaiah made a wordplay here on ‘city of the sun’ ((’ir hašemeš) by writing ’ir haheres which literally means “city of destruction”. Going on with the commentaries thought, if it is city of the sun, most believe this is the Egyptian city of Heliopolis.  Heliopolis is 8 miles from Cairo; here is a map showing the proposed new capital city, Cairo and Heliopolis. Could this new capital be the City of Destruction Isaiah is talking about (rather than Heliopolis)?  We’ll have to keep on the watch and see!

Russia warned the United States about taking direct action against the Syrian regime, saying it would cause negative consequences across the Middle East, Russia’s state-run Sputnik news agency reported Saturday. Sputnik reported that Russian’s Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said, “If the US launches a direct aggression against Damascus and the Syrian army, it will lead to terrible, tectonic shifts not only on the territory of this country but also in the region in general.” She said the United States risked creating a power vacuum in Syria were it to depose Syrian President Bashar al-Assad. Such a power vacuum would be filled by “terrorists of all sorts,” Sputnik reported. Meanwhile, President Vladimir Putin abandoned a key nuclear disarmament treaty with the U.S. and demanded the removal of sanctions and troop reductions from Russia’s former Cold War enemy to restore the agreement. Putin withdrew Russia from a plutonium disposal pact Monday in a decree that accused the U.S. of “unfriendly” actions that posed a “threat to strategic stability.” The president said the U.S. had failed to honor the agreement, signed in 2000, which commits both countries to eliminating their stockpiles of plutonium used as the core material in some types of nuclear weapons.

Syria Headline:  15 Turkey-Backed Syrian Rebels Killed in Fighting with IS

Turkish military officials said 15 Syrian opposition fighters were killed and about 35 were wounded in the fighting, which seeks to capture seven residential districts south of the town of al-Rai. According to an emailed statement, “intense” clashes had taken place in the regions of Boztepe, Hardanah and Turkmen Bari. The statement said the casualties occurred over the last 24 hours. The Turkish officials spoke on condition of anonymity in line with regulations. The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said 21 rebels were killed and more than two dozen wounded, adding that many of the casualties were due to land mines and booby-traps planted by the extremists near the village Turkmen Bari. The Observatory, which relies on a network of activists across Syria, said the Turkey-backed rebel forces are trying to reach the town of Dabiq. IS propaganda claims the town is going to be the location of an epic battle with invading Christian forces in which Muslims will win. IS has been preparing for the battle in Dabiq for weeks, planting mines and explosives and sending some of its most experienced fighters to defend the town, which has been in IS hands since August 2014. The extremists have named their online magazine after the town.

Kurdish Headline:  Turkey bombs major PKK headquarters in Şırnak

Turkey’s military launched on Monday fierce attacks on strongholds of the Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) rebels. The Turkish air force hit main positions for the PKK in the Kurdish Şırnak Governorate, southeast Turkey. “At least eight PKK positions were bombed by our air force today,” the Turkish Central Command said in a statement, adding that dozens of PKK rebels were killed and injured in the airstrikes. Also on Monday, clashes broke out between the Kurdish PKK rebels and Turkish security forces in the Hakkari Governorate. The PKK initiated the clashes by bombing a Turkish security centre in Hakkari countryside. “More than 20 Turkish forces were killed in the clashes,” a PKK officer told ARA News, speaking on condition of anonymity. “We will continue the fight against the suppressive Turkish government until liberating the Kurdish region and ending decades of oppression on our people,” he said.

Turkey

Headline:   Turkey extends state of emergency for 90 days

Turkey will extend a state of emergency imposed after the failed coup last July for another three months starting from 19 October, the government said on Monday. The decision was announced after a weekly cabinet meeting chaired by President Recep Tayyip Erdogan at his presidential palace in Ankara. “The state of emergency will be extended for another 90 days starting October 19 from 1 am,” Deputy Prime Minister Numan Kurtulmus told a news conference after the cabinet meeting. The decision still needs to be put to a vote in the 550-seat parliament but it is certain to be passed as the ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) enjoys a majority in the house. The main opposition Republican People’s Party (CHP) has accused the government of using the abortive putsch to stifle dissent. Erdogan, however, defended Turkey’s actions by pointing to France which has extended emergency since the Islamic State-claimed attacks on Paris in November. The opposition Nationalist Movement Party (MHP) has also voiced support for the extension. The government says basic freedoms will not be undermined. It says the state of emergency is needed to hunt down suspects in the failed putsch, blamed by authorities on US-based Muslim preacher Fethullah Gulen. “The extension means we are still taking certain steps to address vital challenges to our democracy,” a senior Turkish official said on condition of anonymity.

Headline:  Erdogan: “End of game” with EU

On Saturday, Turkish President Erdogan had warned Brussels that Turkey is at “the end of the game” for its European Union (EU) admission. “If the EU is going to make Turkey a full member, we are ready. But they should know that we have came to the end of the game,” he said during a televised speech. “There is no need to beat around the bush or engage in diplomatic acrobatics… It’s their (the EU’s) choice to continue the path with or without Turkey. They should not hold us responsible,” he added. Erdogan also noted that October would be a significant month in EU-Turkey relations as “it is necessary” for visa-free travel for Turks into the Schengen Area be enforced in this month. “The fact that our country has been kept waiting at the door for 53 years shows your (the EU’s) opinion towards us,” noted Erdogan.

Headline:  Erdogan slams US Congress over Saudi 9/11 law

Headline: Turkey police detain Gulen’s brother in coup probe

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan condemned Saturday a US Congress vote to override Barack Obama’s veto of a bill allowing 9/11 victims to sue Saudi Arabia, saying he expected the move to be reversed as soon as possible. Relations between Ankara and Riyadh have tightened considerably in the past months as they pursue joint interests in Syria as they both support the terrorist groups against the Syrian civilians, army and government. Erdogan had just the day earlier hosted Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Nayef for talks at his palace. “The allowing by the US Congress of lawsuits to be opened against Saudi Arabia over the 9/11 attacks is unfortunate,” Erdogan said in a speech for the opening of parliament. “It’s against the principle of individual criminal responsibility for crimes. We expect this false step to be reversed as soon as possible,” he added.

Headline:  Erdogan: Giving islands back to Greece was a mistake

On Thursday, Turkish President Erdogan expressed the “mistake” it was for the young Turkish Republic to allow islands to be given to Greece in the Treaty of Lausanne after World War 1, despite these islands being historically, ethnically and culturally Greek. “We gave away islands to Greece that we could reach with a shout in Lausanne. Is this victory? They tried to trick us into believing that Lausanne was a victory,” Erdogan said during a speech in Ankara. The Greek leader Alexis Tsipras however highlighted the latest rant by Erdogan could threaten bilateral relations between Athens and Ankara who currently have a strong relationship. “Questioning the Treaty of Lausanne, which established norms in Greco-Turkish relations (and) the status quo in the Aegean and its islands, is dangerous to relations between the two countries and to the broader region,” Tsipras’ office quoted him as saying on Friday.” (1^st link below)

This sounds as if Erdogan is picking a fight with Greece.  So what would happen if it came to a fight? Let’s take a look:

***Cyprus is a member of the EU and part of ISIS 5 year plan map

Turkey flatly refuses to recognize the government of the Republic of Cyprus, stating that the Republic – as established by the Constitution of 1960 – ceased to exist when the intercommunal violence that commenced in December 1963 ended Turkish Cypriot participation in the Cypriot government. The attempted coup in July 1974 – engineered by Greek Military Junta – was responded to by Turkey by a full military invasion, which resulted in the northern third of the island being occupied by Turkish military forces. This portion of Cyprus unilaterally declared independence in November 1983 as the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC), which Turkey recognizes. Turkey refers to the Republic of Cyprus government as “The Greek Cypriot Administration of South Cyprus.” Cyprus takes the view that the TRNC government is a puppet administration, and thus prefers to negotiate with Turkey over the resolution of the Cyprus Problem. Turkey insists that the TRNC government is the institution that the RoC government must refer to in negotiations. Cyprus’ accession to the European Union has had a negative impact on Turkey in regards to its own accession negotiations. The refusal of Turkey to allow Cypriot-flagged ships to access Turkish ports has resulted in a partial suspension of its accession negotiations. However Cyprus is in favor of Turkey’s Accession to the EU with the hope it will facilitate a viable and just solution of the Cyprus Problem.  The relations between the Greek and the Turkish states have been marked by alternating periods of mutual hostility and reconciliation ever since Greece won its independence from the Ottoman Empire in 1832.  The Treaty of Lausanne was a peace treaty signed in Lausanne, Switzerland, on 24 July 1923. It officially settled the conflict that had originally existed between the Ottoman Empire and the Allied British Empire, French Republic, Kingdom of Italy, Empire of Japan, Kingdom of Greece, and the Kingdom of Romania since the onset of World War I.  

So we have a country that ISIS wants: Cyprus.  It has been split in half : Cyprus and N. Cyprus- which only Turkey recognizes. So if it comes to a fight then Cyprus would side with Greece and N. Cyprus would side with Turkey. Perfect time for ISIS is get ITS part of the map.  We will have to continue to watch to see what happens!

Iran on Saturday rejected German Economy Minister Sigmar Gabriel’s demand that it recognize Israel in order to normalize relations with Germany. A spokesman for Iran’s Foreign Ministry who was quoted by Press TV made clear that the Islamic Republic would “never” recognize Israel as a precondition for normalizing ties with Germany. “Ties between Iran and Germany are based on mutual respects and interests, and no precondition would be acceptable in this regard,” the spokesman, Bahram Qasemi, said. “Iran considers defending the rights of the people of Palestine as a principle of its foreign policy and will never and under no circumstances will forsake the Palestinian cause,” he added. “The Islamic Republic does not allow any country to interfere in its domestic affairs,” stressed Qasemi.

The U.S. government just relinquished control over one very large entity — the internet. As of Saturday, October 1, the federal National Telecommunications and Information Administration no longer exercises control over the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN), which has long been the manager of internet domain names. But now, ICANN is truly an independent non-profit, free from the oversight of the American government. Instead, as an autonomous not for profit organization, ICANN will now answer to international stakeholders across the internet community, including a governmental advisory committee, a technical committee, industry committee, internet users, and telecommunications experts. Lawrence Strickling, Assistant Secretary for Communications and Information at the Department of Commerce, released a brief statement early Saturday on the transition, saying simply. “As of October 1, 2016, the IANA [Internet Assigned Numbers Authority] functions contract has expired.”

China’s yuan joins the International Monetary Fund’s basket of reserve currencies on Saturday in a milestone for the government’s campaign for recognition as a global economic power. The yuan joins the U.S. dollar, the euro, the yen and British pound in the IMF’s special drawing rights (SDR) basket, which determines currencies that countries can receive as part of IMF loans. It marks the first time a new currency has been added since the euro was launched in 1999.The IMF is adding the yuan, also known as the renminbi, or “people’s money”, on the same day that the Communist Party celebrates the founding of the People’s Republic of China in 1949. “The inclusion into the SDR is a milestone in the internationalization of the renminbi, and is an affirmation of the success of China’s economic development and results of the reform and opening up of the financial sector,” the People’s Bank of China said in a statement. China will use this opportunity to further deepen economic reforms and open up the sector to promote global growth, the central bank added.

Headline:  Cash-strapped Saudi Arabia switches to Gregorian calendar to pay civil servants less

Saudi Arabian civil servants will lose 11 days of pay after the country switched to the Gregorian calendar, the predominant format for organizing time in the West. The switch is part of austerity measures meant to curb the budget deficit. Previously, only the private sector of the Gulf monarchy used the Gregorian calendar of its oil customers to calculate salaries, while the public sector has used the Islamic lunar Hijri calendar since 1932. Under it, a year comprises of 12 months lasting 354 or 355 days, or 11 days shorter than the Gregorian calendar. The salaries are calculated on annual basis, so a longer year translates into less payment for the employees. The switch came into force on Sunday, the last day of the year 1437 AH, and is part of a wider austerity effort that the Saudi government is enacting to cut budgetary spending, Gulf News reported. Riyadh is also curbing financial perks for public servants, salaries of officials, annual bonuses, transport allowances, and the number of annual holidays. The new rules apply to both civilian and military officials regardless of their nationality, according to the report. Saudi Arabia, the world’s top oil exporter, has been hit hard by the drop in crude oil prices that began in 2014, forcing it to attempt massive reform to cut spending and diversify the economy.

Headline:  Brexit unleashed: First step to make UK a ‘sovereign and independent country once again’

UK Prime Minister Theresa May and her “three Brexiteers” – Boris Johnson, Liam Fox and David Davis – have taken the first step toward implementing Britain’s exit from the European Union. May and the Brexiteers announced the “Great Repeal Bill” at the Oct. 2 Tory conference. The bill will nullify the 1972 European Communities Act, “which is the current vehicle by which EU laws are implemented in the UK,” the Sunday Express reported. May told the Sunday Times: “This marks the first stage in the UK becoming a sovereign and independent country once again. It will return power and authority to the elected institutions of our country. It means that the authority of EU law in Britain will end.” As part of the process, the prime minister, will transfer all current EU laws and regulations onto British parliament’s statute books. “It’s very simple. At the moment we leave, Britain must be back in control. And that means EU law must cease to apply,” said Davis, who May named as Britain’s Secretary of State for Exiting the European Union. “That is what people voted for – power and authority residing once again with the sovereign institutions of our own country.”

 Critics say a combination of federal and local policies is being blamed for rolling out the red carpet for illegal immigrants, some of whom have committed violent crimes, allowing them to pour into a Long Island, N.Y., neighborhood where four teens have been murdered in recent weeks. Federal policy that allows Central American children apprehended by Border Patrol to be placed with illegal immigrant sponsors has sent thousands of teens to the region in recent years. While most don’t arrive as hardened gang members, many are placed in homes with little supervision, say critics. “It should not be surprising that when these kids are allowed to enter illegally and then are placed in the custody of someone who is here illegally, they do not have much of an interest in complying with the process,” said Jessica Vaughan, director for policy studies for the Center for Immigration Studies. Compounding matters for some communities on Long Island, which has been plagued with violent crimes from the notorious El Salvadoran gang MS-13, is Suffolk County’s status as a sanctuary county. The Center for Immigration Studies reports that Sheriff Vincent DeMarco, who could not be reached for comment, refuses to honor Immigration and Customs Enforcement detainers without a warrant.

The Colima volcano — known by Mexicans as the Volcano of Fire — is in Mexico’s Colima state, which borders the Jalisco state where authorities have also declared a nearly 5-mile exclusion zone. “At the risk of falling ash, we maintain the recommendation to cover eyes and mouths; cover water tanks; that people with respiratory problems avoid, as possible, outdoor activities, and sweep the ash to be deposited in plastic bags,” the Mexican government said in a statement.

Headline: Pope to not attend Peres’ funeral in Israel

The Joint Arab List, the alliance of all Arab Knesset factions, essentially decided to boycott the funeral of former Israeli President Shimon Peres on Friday. Party leader Ayman Odeh told Israeli media that while there were certain aspects of Peres’ career that he appreciated, especially in the early years of the “Oslo” peace process, overall Israel’s elder statesman symbolized “tragedy” for his people. Odeh insisted that the best way he and his party could show respect was to quietly not attend the funeral, since they had nothing positive to say about Peres. Opposition and Labor Party leader Isaac Herzog expressed great frustration with the Arab politicians, given that Peres more than most Israelis sought peaceful reconciliation with the Arabs, both at home and across the region.

Headline: Stabbing attempt at Kalandia checkpoint

Hamas declared on Thursday that the current wave of terrorist violence, which it refers to as the “Al-Quds Intifada”, will continue until the end of the “Israeli occupation”. The terrorist movement which controls Gaza made the declaration in a statement released on the first anniversary of the wave of violence, which began just before Rosh Hashanah a year ago. Hamas expressed its opposition to negotiations and normalization with Israel and called on the “Palestinian nation” to hold a “day of rage” on Friday. Meanwhile, Hamas official Amir Abu al-‘Imrin said in Gaza that “our right to the land (Palestine) is a permanent right that cannot be negotiated.” He stressed that “the Palestinian people” will continue the intifada until they liberate the land, and added that those who negotiate with Israel and support normalization will not succeed.

Headline:   Jordanians rally against Israeli gas deal

Hundreds of Jordanians took part in a demonstration Friday in the center of Amman to protest a deal signed this week to import natural gas from Israel. Demonstrators carried banners reading “No to financing the Zionist entity from the pockets of Jordanian citizens” and “No to gas imports from the Zionist enemy.” The protest was called by trade unions and political parties opposed to the 1994 peace treaty between Israel and Jordan, half the population of which is of Palestinian origin. “Gas from the Zionists is a disgrace,” demonstrators chanted. A US-led consortium leading the development of Israel’s offshore gas reserves announced the signing on Monday of a deal to sell natural gas from its Leviathan field to Jordan.

Egypt

Headline: Recently-emerged militant group claims attack on Egyptian prosecutor

Headline: Three policemen, civilian killed in gunmen attack on Egypt’s Sinai

A recently-emerged militant group called the Hasm Movement claimed responsibility on Friday for an assassination attempt on a senior Egyptian prosecutor, saying it was in revenge for death sentences handed to thousands of convicts. The organization, which has claimed four other attacks since July, said it set off the car bomb that exploded near a vehicle carrying assistant prosecutor general Zakaria Abdel Aziz from his office to his home in Cairo on Thursday. He and his entourage were not hurt but one passerby was wounded. Hasm, the Arabic word for decisiveness, accused judges of sentencing thousands of innocent defendants to death, or jailing them for life, at the behest of the military. “You will face justice,” it said in a statement that mixed Islamist and anti-government political rhetoric. Egypt is facing an Islamist insurgency led by ISIS’s branch in North Sinai, where hundreds of soldiers and police have been killed. Judges and other senior officials have increasingly been targeted by radical Islamists angered by hefty prison sentences imposed on members of the now-outlawed Muslim Brotherhood.

Headline: A reminder of ALL the terms we regularly hear ISIS called and the REASON why:

ISIS = Islamic State of Iraq and Sham
***many believe ISIS stands for Islamic State of Iraq and Syria.  But it really is SHAM.  SHAM means the Levant…which is why Obama calls them ISIL.
The Levant- an approximate historical geographical term referring to a large area in the eastern Mediterranean. Eventually the term was restricted to the Muslim countries of Syria-Palestine and Egypt. In 1581 England set up the Levant Company to monopolize commerce with the Ottoman Empire. The name Levant States was used to refer to the French mandate over Syria and Lebanon. The term is also occasionally employed to refer to modern events, peoples, states or parts of states in the same region, namely Cyprus, Egypt, Iraq, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Palestine, Syria, and Turkey are sometimes considered Levant countries. ~Another reminder is that what we hear on the nightly news about Syria and Iraq are generally put into two categories that we will be hearing a lot: the Battle for Aleppo (Syria) and the Battle for Mosul (Iraq).  I will make sure to make all the city names red. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Levant

Syria Headline:   US ‘spare Nusra for plan B’ to change regime in Syria – Lavrov

Russia is ready to continue a dialogue with the US on joint action in Syria, but even hints at threats must be ruled out, Russian Defense Ministry spokesman Igor Konashenkov said on Thursday. “We once again state that we are fully ready for continuing a dialogue with the American side and for continuing work on joint measures in fight against terrorists in Syria,” he said. “However, even signs of threats to our military and Russian nationals must be ruled out in this dialogue. There will be no bargaining in the issues of ensuring the safety of Russian nationals no matter where they stay. This is our main and overriding priority,” Konashenkov said. On Wednesday, US State Department spokesman John Kirby said one of the consequences of the war in Syria could be extremists’ “attacks against Russian interests, perhaps even Russian cities.” “And Russia will continue to send troops home in body bags,” he said. According to Konashenkov, US Department of State spokesman John Kirby’s statement is tantamount to recognition the Syrian opposition is in fact a US-controlled international terrorist alliance. Meanwhile, The US is keeping jihadist group al-Nusra for a “Plan B”, potentially to overthrow Syrian President Assad, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said in an interview with the BBC. Speaking to the British outlet about increased violence in Syria, including in Aleppo, Lavrov said that Washington has still not delivered on its promise to persuade US-backed rebels to separate from Jabhat al-Nusra jihadists. The Russian Foreign Minister also said that the reason for this could be Washington’s desire to “change the regime” in the country. “They still, in spite of many repeated promises and commitments … are not able or not willing to do this and we have more and more reasons to believe that from the very beginning the plan was to spare al-Nusra and to keep it just in case for Plan B or stage two when it would be time to change the regime,” Lavrov said.

The Russian Defense Ministry has warned that Islamist groups in Aleppo are preparing a chemical attack against civilians. “We have come to know that terrorist groups are preparing provocative strikes with chemical shells against the positions of the Syrian army and residential areas in the eastern part of Aleppo in order to accuse the government troops there,” Lieutenant-General Viktor Poznikhir of the Russian army’s general staff said on Wednesday. The Lieutenant-General also explained that Russia has received new intel that the Islamist groups were responsible for the attack on an aid convoy in Aleppo on September 19. Russia has reinforced its air base in Syria with several bombers and is ready to send ground attack aircraft as it intensifies support for Syrian government troops after the collapse of a ceasefire plan, Russia’s Izvestia daily reported on Friday. A group of Su-24 and Su-34 frontline bombers have already arrived at the Hmeymim base, Izvestia wrote, quoting an unnamed military official. “If need be, the air force group will be (further) built up within two to three days,” he said. “Su-25 ground attack fighters designated to be sent to Hmeymim have already been selected in their units and their crews are on a stand-by, awaiting orders from their commanders.”

Iraq Headline: UN: 700,000 people will need aid when Mosul liberation begins

French fighter jets took off from the aircraft carrier Charles de Gaulle on Friday for an operation against the ISIL Takfiri group in its Iraqi stronghold of Mosul, an officer said. Eight jets took off from the carrier in the eastern Mediterranean, an AFP photographer on the flight deck reported. The Charles de Gaulle is on its third mission since February 2015 in support of the US-led coalition which is allegedly fighting ISIL in Iraq and Syria. The U.S.-led coalition now has 8,000 troops on the ground in Iraq. The U.S. said earlier this week it will send more advisers to assist the preparation for an assault on Mosul aimed at driving out Islamic State of Iraq and Levant (ISIL). “The reason for the increase of U.S. advisers in Iraq is to provide the necessary support for the imminent campaign to recapture Mosul from the Daesh terrorist group,” the Iraqi government said in a statement on Sept. 28. “The Iraqi government has consulted with the U.S. president on this issue,” it added, stressing that “any increase [in the number of advisers] will be carried out under the auspices of the international coalition.” U.S. military officials said Thursday IS has only 3,000 to 4,500 fighters left in Mosul, describing the force as a mix of Iraqis and foreign fighters. “They know they don’t have what it takes to stop that offensive,” Operation Inherent Resolve spokesman, Col. John Dorrian told Pentagon reporters via a video link from Baghdad. As recently as July, IS was thought to have as many as 10,000 fighters in Mosul. Since then, coalition estimates have continually revised that number downwards as intelligence indicated many top IS officials and their families had fled Mosul for the group’s Syrian stronghold of Raqqa. Iraqi militia leaders also told VOA there was evidence many of the foreign fighters who had once been based in Mosul were leaving.

Iraq Headline: US-led coalition targets Islamic State’s leadership in Mosul ahead of ground offensive

The US-led coalition has killed 18 Islamic State leaders in the past 30 days, according to Operation Inherent Resolve spokesman Colonel John Dorrian. Thirteen of them were based in or around Mosul, Iraq. Dorrian briefed the press on the airstrikes yesterday, saying that the deceased jihadists “were part of their [the Islamic State’s] military intelligence communication networks in Mosul.” The airstrikes “have targeted military commanders, administration officials, foreign fighter facilitators, amirs, security commanders, communication leaders, and senior shura council leadership,” Dorian said. Three of the leaders were from Chechnya, highlighting the key role foreign fighters play in the Islamic State’s chain of command. “In a two-day period in Mosul, we removed Abdul Hamid al Shishani, Abdul Jabir al Shishani, Abdul Rahman al Shishani, all Daesh [Islamic State] Chechen foreign fighters responsible for administration in command of fighters in Mosul,” Dorrian said. Earlier this year, the US killed Abu Omar al Shishani, the Islamic State’s top Chechen leader in an airstrike south of Mosul. Shishani’s demise so close to Mosul demonstrated that the group had dispatched some of its elite fighting forces to the area in anticipation of the long-planned ground offensive to retake the city. Shishani’s death was celebrated by some al Qaeda figures on social media, as he was one of the central players in the rivalry between the Islamic State and al Qaeda that broke out in 2014. [See LWJ report, Abu Omar al Shishani killed south of Mosul, Islamic State says.] The Chechens “hold kind of a special place within” the islamic State, according to Dorrian, because they are “somewhat seasoned” and well-trained jihadis.

Kurdish Headline:  Kurdish militia role in Raqqa offensive could trigger ethnic conflict

An offensive to retake the Syrian city of Raqqa from Islamic State using Kurdish militia fighters would trigger an ethnic conflict there, a senior Turkish official said and warned that the operation should avoid triggering further divisions. The official said Syrian Kurdish YPG has so far failed to entirely withdraw from the Syrian city of Manbij west of the Euphrates river despite promises for it to do so. Turkey views the YPG as a hostile force with deep links to Kurdish militants who have fought a three-decade insurgency on Turkish soil, putting it at odds with Washington which sees the YPG as a valuable and effective ally in its fight against ISIS in Syria.

Cyprus’ president says an insistence by breakaway Turkish Cypriots to cede Turkey the right to militarily intervene under a hoped-for deal reunifying the divided Mediterranean island nation is “excessive and unjustified.” President Nicos Anastasiades says in a televised address Friday on the occasion of Cyprus’ 56th anniversary of independence from British colonial rule that no modern state within the European Union has any need for third-country security guarantees. He said any negotiated settlement to the island’s 42 year-old ethnic division must eliminate any dependence on third countries. Anastasiades said, while he acknowledges Turkish Cypriot mistrust of Greek Cypriots, he would not “satisfy unjustified concerns” at the expense of “existing and legitimate” Greek Cypriot fears.

In the month after a suicide bomber killed dozens of people attending a mostly Kurdish wedding in southeastern Turkey, the government has ramped up its military campaign against Islamic State (IS) militants, arresting 40 IS suspects in Istanbul and another two suspects in Sanliurfa, according to a Turkish official who spoke to VOA. “We are moving forward,” said another high-level Turkish official. “We will continue to take all necessary steps to defeat IS.” Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, who imposed a state of emergency in July after a failed coup attempt, has been under increasing pressure to crackdown on terrorists. “It looks like the bloody wedding bombing act was a turning point,” said Tahsin Akdogan, a street merchant in Gaziantep who lost 10 relatives in the attack that authorities blame on IS. The city is a known hub of terrorist sleeper cells. Islamic State smugglers working the nearby border have also added to security concerns. Turan Efendioglu, owner of the Gurme Market in Gaziantep, said illegal trafficking has recently been curbed. “Police are everywhere now, and that makes us feel safer,” he said. The decision by the Turkish government to push harder to root out IS extremists has been a controversial process.

Iran

Headline: IRAN’S ART OF THE DEAL- Tehran insisted US sign ‘secret’ pact lifting sanctions on crooked banks

The Obama administration is coming under tough new criticism for its dealings with Tehran after a Wall Street Journal report claimed the U.S. agreed to sign a “secret document” lifting international sanctions on Iranian banks just as the regime was releasing four American prisoners. House Speaker Paul Ryan on Friday called on Obama to provide “an immediate explanation.” According to the Journal, the Obama administration agreed to support removing United Nations sanctions on the banks well in advance of the 2023 date agreed upon in the nuclear deal. The early removal of sanctions on Bank Sepah and Bank Sepah International reportedly was part of a broader list of “tightly scripted agreements,” including the controversial prisoner exchange and transfer of $1.7 billion in cash to Iran that Republicans characterize as a “ransom.” Ryan said the move violated the nuclear deal. “This story grows more disturbing with each passing day,” Ryan, R-Wis., said in his statement. “It now appears that on the same day American hostages were freed from Iran, the administration not only agreed to the $1.7 billion cash ransom payment, but violated a key term of the nuclear deal by prematurely lifting ballistic missile sanctions.” The White House downplayed the details, though, as old news. “I’d note that this information is not new and was reported on back in January,” a National Security Council official said.

Headline: One week.  Hundreds of dead and wounded.  How Afghan forces are struggling with heavy casualties.

At least 15 civilians were killed and 13 wounded in a U.S. unmanned aircraft strike in eastern Afghanistan, the United Nations said, calling for an independent investigation into the incident. The airstrike early on Wednesday morning hit what U.S. officials said was an Islamic State target in the Achin district of Nangarhar province. Government officials said the strike killed some militants, but the U.N. Assistance Mission in Afghanistan (UNAMA) reported the victims were civilians, including students, a teacher, and members of families considered to be “pro-government”. “UNAMA reiterates the need for all parties to the conflict to adhere to their obligations under international humanitarian law,” the United Nations said in a statement late on Thursday. “UNAMA calls on the government and international military forces to launch a prompt, independent, impartial, transparent, and effective investigation into this incident.” All the civilians reported killed were men, it added. The men had gathered in a village to welcome a local elder on his return from completing the Hajj pilgrimage to Mecca and were sleeping when the strike happened, witnesses said. The strike occurred in a remote area near the Pakistan border that has become a stronghold for Islamic State in Afghanistan.

Dozens of children in Darfur have allegedly been killed by chemical weapons dropped on them by their own government, it is claimed.

Those affected by the “poisonous smoke” vomit blood, struggle to breathe and watch as their skin falls off. The Sudanese government has said the allegations are baseless. “The allegations of use of chemical weapons by Sudanese Armed Forces is baseless and fabricated,” Sudan’s UN Ambassador Omer Dahab Fadl Mohamed said, quoted by Reuters. “The ultimate objective of such wild accusation, is to steer confusion in the ongoing processes aimed at deepening peace and stability and enhancing economic development and social cohesion in Sudan.”

An international rights group expressed alarm Friday over the fate of hundreds of Libyan and foreign nationals trapped for months amid fighting in the eastern city of Benghazi. Amnesty International said that nearly 130 families and hundreds of foreigners in the southwestern Benghazi neighborhood of Ganfouda have been cut off from the outside world, with dwindling food and fuel supplies. “Time is running out for civilians in Ganfouda, who are being left to die trapped by the fighting,” said Magdalena Mughrabi, deputy director of Amnesty’s Middle East and North Africa Program. The fighting has raged in Benghazi since 2014 when forces commanded by powerful military commander Khalifa Haftar began a campaign against militants there, including branches of al-Qaida and the Islamic State group. Haftar, supported by British, French, and American military advisers and special forces, has managed to take control over much of the city. Ganfouda is one of the few districts where the militants have put up fierce resistance against Haftar’s National Libyan Army forces.

The protesters stopped vehicles, broke car windows and knocked a motorcyclist off his motorcycle, according to Lt. Rob Ransweiler of the El Cajon Police Department. The ECPD received numerous 911 calls about the disturbance in the intersection and a group of officers from the multi-agency composite platoon moved into the area, he said. An unlawful assembly was declared by law enforcement at the scene and notice was given to the protesters to disperse. The protesters began throwing glass bottles at the police and after the group refused to disperse pepper balls were deployed, Ransweiler said. Two men from El Cajon, ages 19 and 28, were taken into custody on suspicion of participating in the unlawful assembly but their names were not released. There were no injuries reported, Ransweiler said.

Headline:   Should U.S. pay reparations for slavery? U.N.-appointed experts think so

A United Nations working group is getting into the fray on U.S. racial discrimination. After 14 years, and 20 days of speaking with U.S. officials, activists, and families of people killed by police in major American cities, it has issued its conclusions: the slave trade was a crime against humanity and the U.S. government should pay reparations. “Contemporary police killings and the trauma it creates are reminiscent of the racial terror lynching in the past,” a French member of the working group of U.N. experts, Mireille Fanon-Mendes-France, said after their meetings in the U.S. The U.N. experts traveled to major cities including: Washington D.C., Baltimore, Jackson, Mississippi, Chicago, and New York City. In Washington, they met with the Department of State, the Department of Homeland Security, the Department of Housing and Urban Development, the Department of Health and Human Services, the Department of Labor, the Department of Justice, the Environmental Protection Agency, and the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. In Baltimore, they met with Maryland federal judges. In Jackson, they met with officials of the Office of the Mayor and the Office of the Attorney General of the State of Mississippi. In Chicago, they met with the Attorney General of the State of Illinois, and with representatives of the Office of the Mayor of the City of Chicago and the Chicago Police Department. And, in New York City, they met with the Office of the Attorney General of the State of New York.

Headline:   Somalia Demands Explanation for US Airstrike

Somalia’s government is demanding an explanation from the United States for Wednesday’s deadly airstrike in central Somalia. The Pentagon said in news release Thursday that its forces launched a “self-defense” strike against al-Shabab near the town of Galkayo, killing at least nine militants. However, Galmudug state vice-president Mohamed Hashi Abdi told VOA’s Somali service that the U.S. airstrike killed 13 members of Galmudug forces. After the weekly cabinet meeting in Mogadishu, ministers in the government said they want “a clear explanation on the airstrike carried out by U.S. against forces belonging to the Galmudug, a Somali federal member state.” The cabinet said it will appoint a ministerial committee to investigate the airstrike. Abdi said the Americans were “misguided” in a request that came from officials in the semi-autonomous Puntland region. “We fight against al-Shabab, and there is no al-Shabab presence in Galmudug area,” he added.

Headline: Families of US government personnel ordered to leave Congo amid unrest

The U.S. State Department has issued a travel warning for the Democratic Republic of Congo and has ordered families of government personnel stationed there to leave. The travel warning said, “The potential for civil unrest is high in parts of Kinshasa and other major cities.” Kinshasa is the DRC capital. “As a result of the deteriorating situation,” the warning said, “family members of U.S. government personnel have been ordered to leave the country beginning September 29. Most official U.S. government travel to the DRC has been halted.” Deadly clashes have broken out in the country over the presidency of Joseph Kabila. His last day in office is supposed to be December 19. He has ruled for two terms, beginning in 2001. The constitution bars him from seeking a third term. However, the nation’s electoral commission says it will not be able to hold elections until late 2018. Kabila has not said publicly what he will do. Critics say he is stalling to stay in power.

Headline: Pakistan threatens to DESTROY India with nuclear bomb as atomic enemies edge to the brink of war

The Indian military launched “surgical strikes” against Pakistani terrorists across the Line of Control in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir last night, killing “up to 38 terrorists and Pakistani soldiers,” according to India Today. The raids were based on “very specific and credible information that some terrorist units had positioned themselves to infiltrate” into the country, the Indian Army’s Director General of Military Operations said. The raids were clearly designed to retaliate for the Sept. 17 attack by Pakistan-based Jaish-e-Mohammed on an Indian Army base in Uri in the Indian state of Jammu and Kashmir. Seventeen Indian soldiers were killed in the deadly raid. India Today provides a list of “all you want to know on the surgical strikes”; here are the top six items on the list: DGMO Lt General Ranbir Singh said the strikes were launched on Wednesday night based on “very specific and credible information that some terrorist units had positioned themselves to infiltrate” into India. The announcement followed a meeting of the Cabinet Committee on Security chaired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who had vowed to avenge Uri in an earlier tweet.The operation lasted from 12.30 am to 4.30 am, with the location being 500 metres to 2 km from the LoC on the Pakistani side, sources in the Indian Army said.Seven terror launch pads were destroyed by the commandos of the Army Special Forces, who were paradropped into the Pakistani territory by ALH Dhruv choppers.The surgical strikes were recorded on cameras with drones also recording footage. 2 Indian soldier was injured from landmines during the surgical strikes, the Army said. It also said it had no immediate plans of another such operation for now. The Pakistan military’s Inter-Services Public Relations directorate (ISPR) denied that India launched “surgical strikes” against “alleged terrorist bases.”

Headline:    China armed forces warn Japan against South China sea patrols

Japan is “playing with fire” with plans to step up activity in the contested South China Sea through joint training patrols with the United States, China’s Defence Ministry said on Thursday, warning it would not sit watching from the sidelines. China claims virtually the entire South China Sea and has repeatedly denounced what it views as interference there by the United States and its ally, Japan. Japan is strengthening its ties in the region, in particular with the Philippines and Vietnam, which contest China’s claims to parts of the sea, and it aims to help build the capacity of coastal states in the busy waterway, its defense minister said this month during a visit to Washington. Chinese Defence Ministry spokesman Yang Yujun, asked about Japan’s plans, said it had constantly been trying to stir things up in the South China Sea for its own purposes. “We must solemnly tell Japan this is a miscalculation. If Japan wants to have joint patrols or drills in waters under Chinese jurisdiction this really is playing with fire,” Yang told a monthly news briefing. “China’s military will not sit idly by,” he added, without elaborating.

Headline: Saudi Arabia could threaten to pull billions from US economy, hinder military base access

Saudi Arabia and its regional allies could retaliate by removing billions from the US economy and restrict access to military bases if the American public are able to sue the puritanical kingdom for 9/11, according to experts. “This should be clear to America and to the rest of the world. When one Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) state is targeted unfairly, the others stand around it,” Abdulkhaleq Abdullah, a professor of political science at United Arab Emirates University, told Associated Press. “All the states will stand by Saudi Arabia in every way possible.” Congress overwhelmingly voted to override President Barack Obama’s veto of the bill that would allow Americans to potentially sue Saudi Arabia for 9/11. Lawmakers said their priority was not Saudi Arabia, but victims and families, RT reported.

Headline: The Run Begins: Deutsche Bank Hedge Fund Clients Withdraw Excess Cash

Headline: Deutsche Bank shares swing wildly amid stability concerns

Deutsche Bank concerns just went to ’11’ as Bloomberg reports a number of funds that clear derivatives trades with Deutsche Bank AG have withdrawn some excess cash and positions held at the lender, a sign of counterparties’ mounting concerns about doing business with Europe’s largest investment bank. While the vast majority of Deutsche Bank’s more than 200 derivatives-clearing clients have made no changes, some funds that use the bank’s prime brokerage service have moved part of their listed derivatives holdings to other firms this week, according to an internal bank document seen by Bloomberg News. Millennium Partners, Capula Investment Management and Rokos Capital Management are among about 10 hedge funds that have cut their exposure, said a person familiar with the situation who declined to be identified talking about confidential client matters. The hedge funds use Deutsche Bank to clear their listed derivatives transactions because they are not members of clearinghouses. Millennium, Capula and Rokos declined to comment when contacted by phone or e-mail. Which explains why short-dated CDS is soaring.

Headline: Historic takeover of Puerto Rico’s finances, agencies begins

A federal control board on Friday took over Puerto Rico’s finances and several government agencies for the first time in the U.S. territory’s history in a bid to haul the island out of an acute economic crisis. The seven-member board met in New York and was briefly interrupted by protesters who yelled, “This is slavery!” and “Stop pillaging Puerto Rico!” The meeting was livestreamed over the internet following pledges that the board would operate with transparency. It ordered Gov. Alejandro Garcia Padilla to produce a fiscal plan in two weeks and submit weekly and monthly revenue reports that detail how the government is adhering to its budget. Members also voted on which Puerto Rico government agencies would come under the board’s oversight. They include the island’s central government, its largest public university, its heavily indebted utility companies, a Government Development Bank that is running out of cash and a public pension system underfunded by more than $40 billion. “We’re working as quickly as possible,” said Jose Carrion III, who was elected board president, to reporters after the meeting. The board was approved by Congress in June and is charged in part with helping restructure a portion of a nearly $70 billion public debt that Garcia has said is unpayable. Carrion is one of four Republicans on the board, along with three Democrats. Also on the board is a representative of Puerto Rico’s governor who is barred from voting.

Authorities in Thailand have confirmed that two cases of babies with microcephaly, or abnormally small heads, were caused by the Zika virus, the first such cases found in Southeast Asia. Dr. Prasert Thongcharoen, a senior Health Ministry official, said in a statement Friday that the linkage to Zika was confirmed by laboratory tests in two of three cases of babies afflicted with microcephaly. The results were inconclusive in the third case. The World Health Organization urged countries in the region to take stronger measures to contain the virus. The U.N. agency said the cases are the first of Zika-associated microcephaly in Southeast Asia. “Zika virus infection is a serious threat to the health and well-being of a pregnant woman and her unborn child. Countries across the region must continue to strengthen measures aimed at preventing, detecting and responding to Zika virus transmission,” WHO Southeast Asia regional director Dr. Poonam Khetrapal Singh said in a statement.

Headline:   Man suspected of killing parents, then 17 neighbors in China

Police say a villager in southwest China killed his parents and then 17 neighbors in an attempt to cover up his crime, the official Xinhua News Agency reported Friday. An investigation found that Yang Qingpei argued with his parents over money on Wednesday evening and killed them, Xinhua said. Fearing he would be identified as the killer, he then murdered 17 neighbors in the village of Yema, it said, citing police in southwestern Yunnan province where the village is located. Xinhua didn’t say how Yang, aged 26 or 27, allegedly killed the villagers. He was arrested in the provincial capital of Kunming, about 200 kilometers (120 miles) away, on Thursday, a few hours after the bodies from different households were discovered. The deaths are one of the bloodiest mass slayings in recent years in China, where deadly random attacks on schools and public transport have been blamed on people bearing grudges against their families, neighbors or society in general.

Headline:   Social media users fear terrifying orgy trend where mystery HIV carriers are invited to take part in unprotected sex parties may be spreading across Europe

In May the worrying trend of “sex roulette” parties was reported to have spread from Serbia to Spain according to a doctor in Barcelona. But fears seamed to have resurfaced on Twitter with one user tweeting: “‘Sex roulette’ parties where one person secretly has HIV are on the rise, doctors warn.” Dr Josep Mallolas of Hospital Clinic Barcelona said: “There is everything: sex roulette parties, or sex parties you can only attend if you already have HIV.” Most of the dangerous orgies are thought to be attended by gay men. The reckless meetups are said to have originated in wealthy circles in Serbia where they had reportedly been popular for some time. But this and last years just represent the latest trend in this form of risky sexual behaviour which has been known to occur for almost 20 years. In some instances participants actively try to catch the virus, some bizarrely regarding it as either an inevitability or a badge of honour.

A Christian and a Muslim have come together to produce a unique version of the Quran — a full-text English edition of the holy book, but with a twist. “The Qur’an With References to the Bible” relies upon 7th century classical Arabic and comes complete with parallel verses from the Christian Bible. Dr. Safi Kaskas, a Muslim businessman, and Dr. David Hungerford, an orthopedic surgeon who is a practicing Christian, have compiled the Quran in hopes that the translation will help bridge the divide between Christians and Muslims in America. Hungerford and Kaskas recently told “The Church Boys” podcast that they first met as board members of Bridges to Common Ground, an organization that works to foster greater understanding between Christians and Muslims. “When we met, Dr. Kaskas had this as a dream and (it was) something he had been working on in his mind,” Hungerford said. “We were both kind of prepared for this project (and the) collaboration just became so obvious to us and we’ve been working on it together ever since.”

 Bible prophecy documentary book download proving our generation will see the return of the Lord. Do you want to know what is going to happen in the future before it actually takes place? The Word of God provides you with specific details about our future and all of these things are coming to pass in this generation. If you aren’t saved yet this is a must read!  The Last Chronicles of Planet Earth Sept. 27, 2016 Edition written by Frank Dimora

I don’t care if you are white, black, brown, yellow or any other color if you are in the United States middle class you are already in trouble. Just about every part of your life has been effected over the past 8 years.  For one moment put aside if you can whether you are a Democratic or Republican.  Just forget what any of the main stream media is trying to push down all our throats to get us to vote for the person they want us to vote for that includes CNN liberal or Fox news conservitive.  Let us all step out of the news box and look at the following: If you are single or if you are married with a family before you vote this year ask yourself the following questions.

 1. Over the past eight years has my life improved.

2. Over the past eight years how many times did I get a raise?

3. Over the past 8 years has the government lowered taxes that has helped me with my bills?  Out of their own mouths who will be hurting you or your family by raising my taxes even higher. Democratic or Republican after the election if your taxes go up as promised what part of your household budget are you going to cut because more of your hard earned money will be taken.

4. Over the past 8 years how much more am I paying for medical bills?

5.Over the past eight years do I see anything coming from the government that makes me feel that I do not have to worry about ISIS attacks.  

6.Over the past 8 years has my job or jobs been taken away because it was cut and given to someone who came to America illegal.  If you did see a job was it a good paying job with benefits or are you one of millions of Americans who are working more than one job to make ends meet?  If you were one of the lucky ones to get a job is it a 40 hour a week job or like most jobs gotten in the past few years are jobs that only have 30 hours to avoid paying you benefits. 

7. The U.S. debt is heading toward 20 trillion dollars with no end in sight. How long do you think it will be before you if your are single or, your family if your married will be able to hold up when the government has to close its doors? Democratic or Republican if the road the U.S. is on now via the debt continues the government will not have funds to pay unemployment or issue welfare payments. How long will you be able to live before you are homeless?  

8. Seeing the current economic landscape how long do you think the average middle class person will take before they will be able to buy their first home?

9. Over the last eight years has the government done  anything to stop crime other than try to pass new bills that will take guns away from people who do no commit crimes?  I ask this question as a husband with this in mind. If the government takes a gun from the average person who is law abiding and, that family one night finds his home was broken into what will you use to protect your family or yourself if you are single?  Since you will not be able to have a gun will you use a baseball bat against the person who is pointing a gun at you?  Good luck. Keep in mind, I do not care if you are from one party or the other the man pointing the gun at you and or your family doesn’t care what party you belong to.

10. There are many young people who are thinking about joining the military because they can not find a good job.  You need to ask this question. Who do I believe will protect me as a soldier when I enlist Clinton or Trump?  Who do I believe would leave a fallen soldier behind Clinton or Trump?

11. Do I want our government to continue to allow people to cross over into America illegally and be able to tap in to free schooling, welfare, and take jobs away from U.S. citizens? 

12.If you are in fact black ask yourself this question. Over the past 8 years have you seen the black community get out of the lower class ranks?  During the past 8 years if you are black under a black president did they help you up the latter as he promised or, has it gotten so bad under a black president that a black matters movement has been birthed?  If you are honest you must be asking yourself why are so many blacks killing blacks?  The leads me to the next question.

13.During the last 8 years how many Americans have gotten killed because of drugs.  How many communities in America are watching their kids killed because of running drugs.  Ask yourself this question as well. Why is drug use so heavy in poor black communities?  Is it because they think this type of activity is the only way out of the poor neighborhoods? When Obama came to Chicago his own home town did he not promise you a change?  After 8 years in office if you live in the poorer section of Chicago do you feel safer.  Take a look at these facts: Chicago, Year to Date 2016
Shot & Killed: 509
Shot & Wounded: 2746
Total Shot: 3255
Total Homicides: 566

For many of you who live in Chicago you did get your change but sadly someone if your family may have been one of the statistics above.

13. Ask yourself this. Do I want a wall to help keep out illegals, drugs, and ISIS or, do I want to keep it as is and see more of the same which will mean more drugs coming to our cities and, of course that will lead to more crime plus no wall will mean more of a chance that ISIS can sneak into the U.S. and attack more U.S. citizens that have already been attacked.

  In my book The Last Chronicles of Planet Earth I discuss the economic state of not only the U.S. but the world.  Jesus shows us in the scriptures that just before He returns to Earth the Antichrist will come and it will be he who controls the world’s economy.  This can only happen if there is a major world economic collapse.  No nation in their right mind would just hand over all their power to one man to control a world economy but that is exactly what we see from scripture. See Rev. 13: 15-17. The path the U.S. is on right now via the unpayable debt are factors that are leading to this world economic collapse that will bring on the Antichrist!  Fact is whether you are a Democratic or Republican if you are honest with yourself you know something is very wrong with America and things are not getting better.  Also, if you have been watching the world news you know that nation after nation are falling into deep economic woes like the likes this generation has not seen. Below are some examples:

The Run Begins: Deutsche Bank Hedge Fund Clients Withdraw Excess Cash http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2016-09-29/run-begins-deutsche-bank-hedge-fund-clients-cut-collateral-exposure

 One thing is very clear, Jesus warned us about the gold and silver in the last days.  Without a question the prices of gold and silver will skyrocket.  When you take in account what we see in the scriptures in the photo above and, the word Jesus told us about people working all day long for one small meal what we know is during the last days when the world economy collapses paper money will be worthless and those who have gold and silver will be able to survive much better than the people holding paper currency.  Keep in mind, the wealth of gold and silver will be short lived as Jesus will take these precious metals away during the tribulation and just as the scriptures tell us people will weep over the loss.  People do not cry over items that are not worth something and gold and silver will be worth a lot for a while.  Does Donald know something from the Lord that you do not know?  As you will see below, Donald has been warning Americans that the U.S. is in a economic bubble. Donald knows what is coming when the bubble breaks and, what is the best way for Donald to get himself and his business ready for when it busts. If Jesus shows gold will go through the roof why not get as much as you can now before the economy crashes?  Guess what?  This is exactly what Donald has done. 

 The return of real money has made a triumphant re-entry into the US economy with the recent acceptance by The Trump Organization of gold bullion as payment for a commercial lease property. APMEX, one of the largest dealers of precious metals in the US, paid Donald Trump‘s company three, one kilo bars (roughly 96.45 troy ounces) of .9999 pure Gold as a security deposit for its newly-leased space on the 50th floor of 40 Wall Street, also known as the Trump Building.

One last question I have. Could it be the Lord is giving us a chance for more time?  Is it possible that the Lord has revealed His plan to  Mark Taylor back in 2011 about Donald Trump?   So far everything Mark Taylor said Jesus told him about Trump has come to pass. This November we will all know if Jesus did show Mark the future. As to all the questions you should ask yourself I am sure the video will shed some light on who you will pick.

Democratic or Republican we are all in the same boat and isn’t about either Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump it is about Jesus Christ and, whether or not you believe the Antichrist will come and control the world’s economic system which will lead to the Lord’s second coming.

John 19:11 Jesus answered, “You would have no power over me if it were not given to you from above. Therefore the one who handed me over to you is guilty of a greater sin.”

As I said in the beginning of this post we will see who Jesus is going to give power to and so far all I have see and heard was Jesus spoke to Mark Taylor in 2011 and said He chose Donald Trump.
