Headline: EU Urges Peace Talks to Resume Ahead of Statehood Vote
Headline: Sarkozy: Vote Against Recognition of ‘Palestine’
New EU foreign affairs chief Federica Mogherini called on Israel and the Palestinian Authority (PA) Wednesday to resume direct peace talks, as the European Parliament debated whether to recognize a Palestinian state, AFP reports. MEPs will hold a symbolic vote in December, following resolutions passed by the British and Spanish parliaments, and an official decision to recognize Palestine by the Swedish government. France’s National Assembly is set to vote on a non-binding resolution on December 2. The Middle East process restarted in July 2013 but has been on hold since April, with tensions and violence mounting again dramatically in recent weeks. “The sense of urgency is getting higher and higher in the absence of a political context,” Mogherini told lawmakers at the start of what she said was a “timely” debate. “There has to be a direct dialogue.” The former Italian foreign minister, who has taken over as diplomatic chief of the 28-nation European Union, said the bloc was ready to “play a role” in moving the peace process forward. She also reiterated her support for a two-state solution to resolve the crisis. The European Parliament was initially due to vote on Thursday on the motion to recognize a Palestinian state but it was postponed until December at the last minute.

Headline: Abbas: Jewish state law an obstacle to peace
Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas said on Tuesday that the proposed “Jewish state bill” “places obstacles in the way to achieving peace.” Abbas, in an interview with a Ramallah-based radio station, said that he opposes the bill and noted that some Israeli ministers and MKs also oppose it. “Many Israelis want peace and are working to achieve it,” he added. “We don’t want to assault anyone and we don’t want anyone to be harmed. But we also don’t want anyone to harm our people and religious sites.” The PLO strongly condemned the bill, claiming it is aimed at destroying the two-state solution. A statement issued by the PLO Executive Committee in Ramallah said the bill is designed to “implement the Greater Israel plan and the Jewishness of the state on the land of historic Palestine.” The statement said that the PLO considers the bill a “unilateral Israel revocation of the Mutual Recognition Document of 1993” between Israel and the organization. The PLO also warned that the bill would compromise the status of other holy sites and religions by making Judaism Israel’s recognized identity.

Headline: Islamic Jihad threatens Israel over glacial pace of reconstruction
Israel’s violations of the ceasefire agreement it reached with Gaza’s armed factions will lead to a new round of confrontation, the deputy director of the Iranian-backed Islamic Jihad terror group warned on Wednesday, as a powerful storm battered a Strip recovering from this summer’s conflict. In comments posted on the terror group’s official website, Ziad Nakhaleh cited recent Israeli violations of Gaza’s sovereignty in the “no-go zone” along the border with Israel and along Gaza’s coast, and what he said was Israel’s hampering of reconstruction efforts in the enclave. He said that the military capabilities of Islamic Jihad — the second-largest political group in the Gaza Strip, avowedly devoted to the destruction of Israel — were greater now than they were before Operation Protective Edge, noting that the movement has gained much experience by engaging the Israeli army in battle over the summer. Nakhaleh’s frustration mostly focused on the slow pace of home reconstruction in the Gaza Strip, administered by the UN in coordination with Israel and the Palestinian Authority.

In his address, translated and posted Tuesday by the Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI), the man identified as Ali Abu Ahmad calls for Jerusalem’s liberation from “the Jews, the most vile of creatures” and for the annihilation of America and the international coalition against Islamic State. “Oh Allah, annihilate America and its coalition. Oh Allah, enable us to cut off their heads. Oh Allah, help our brothers, the mujahideen in the land of Iraq and Syria,” Abu Ahmad calls out in the main hall of the mosque on Jerusalem’s Temple Mount.

Headline: Israel to NATO: Punish Turkey for Hosting Hamas HQ
Israel wants NATO to take steps against Turkey for allowing genocidal terror group Hamas to set up its headquarters in Istanbul. Yisrael Hayom reported Wednesday that Israel sent NATO official messages through several channels, in which it stated that it is unacceptable for a NATO member state to have ties with a terror group. Senior diplomatic sources in Jerusalem told the newspaper that Hamas set up its main political and military HQ in Istanbul after leaving Damascus. Hamas had been forced out of Damascus in late 2012 because of its support for rebels against Bashar Assad’s regime. The head of the Turkish HQ is reportedly Salah al-Arouri, a terrorist whom Israel accuses of a long list of attacks. A senior Israeli source said that the operation of the Hamas HQ from Turkey was undoubtedly authorized by President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

Headline: Spy Balloons Give Police New View of Jerusalem
Israeli police are watching from above in their attempts to keep control in Jerusalem in the face of the city’s worst wave of violence in nearly a decade. Over the past month, 11 people have been killed in Palestinian attacks, including a deadly assault last week on a Jerusalem synagogue that killed five people. Most of the violence has occurred in Jerusalem, along with deadly attacks in Tel Aviv and the West Bank. Police have been flying surveillance balloons over the city’s eastern sector and Old City ? the location of its most sensitive holy sites ? to monitor protests and move in on them quickly. They say the puffy white balloons, which carry a rotating spherical camera pod, have greatly helped quell the unrest.

Headline: Ministry summons Israeli envoy over ‘insults to Parliament’
Jordan’s government reacted angrily on Tuesday to comments made by Israel’s ambassador to Jordan, Daniel Nevo, during an interview this week on Army Radio. During the interview, Nevo was asked to comment on the Jordanian parliament holding a special prayer in honor of the two terrorists who carried out the massacre at a synagogue in Jerusalem last week, who MPs hailed as “heroes”. Nevo responded by saying that Jordanian MPs are seen among locals as taking care only of themselves, and that they tend to sometimes engage in minor issues. In response, a spokesman for Jordan’s Foreign Ministry said on Tuesday that “the ambassador’s words are unacceptable and are not true.” “Such statements cross the boundary between the two countries,” said the spokesman who was quoted by Army Radio, adding that the ambassador should respect all the institutions of the country in which he is serving. There were reports on Monday that Nevo had been summoned by the Jordanian Foreign Ministry after the statements which were thought by some to be demean Jordan’s parliament. Jordan’s al-Ghad newspaper, according to i24news, reported that the parliament’s speaker had asked the government of Jordan to take action against Nevo. Jordanian Information Minister Mohammad Momani said that Jordan will be sending an official letter of protest to Israel and will be looking into any other necessary steps that they might take against Nevo.

March 14’s General Secretariat slammed Hezbollah Wednesday for completing a swap deal to release one of its fighters held by Syrian rebels while blocking efforts to reach a deal that would release the Lebanese servicemen captured by jihadis. Also Wednesday, Prime Minister Tammam Salam headed a meeting of the “crisis cell” made up of officials and ministers responsible for following up on the hostage crisis. No decision or statement was made after the meeting. “This deal revealed another face of undermining the state’s authority that the party [Hezbollah] chooses to hide behind when it fails to achieve a goal,” the weekly statement of the camp’s secretariat said, accusing Hezbollah of doing what it preaches against. March 14 criticized Hezbollah’s unilateral move, because the party is part of the Cabinet, which is following up on the negotiations for the captives’ release through a crisis cell. They said the party bypassed the crisis cell while “preventing the state from achieving any possible exchange deal.”

Syrian government warplanes carried out a series of airstrikes Tuesday on the de-facto capital of the extremist Islamic State group, killing at least 60 people, shattering shop fronts and setting dozens of cars ablaze, activists said. Some of the air raids struck a popular market near a museum and an industrial neighborhood in the city of Raqqa along the Euphrates River in northeastern Syria, causing many civilian casualties, they said. The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights put the death toll at more than 60, among them 36 civilians whose names it was able to document. The Local Coordination Committees said the strikes killed at least 70 people. Another Raqqa-based collective called Raqqa is Being Silently Slaughtered said it documented over 80 deaths. Such discrepancies are normal in the chaotic aftermath of attacks in Syria.

The Iraqi army and Kurdish peshmerga forces backed by the coalition air force on Wednesday repelled a major attack by the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) on the northern Iraqi city of Kirkuk, according to sources from the city. “They are targeting Kirkuk and they want to control the oil sites,” said peshmerga Major General Westa Rasul, according to AFP. The attack began early on Wednesday morning against three villages west of the city of Kirkuk, sparking fighting that lasted for hours, Rasul and two other officers said. ISIS managed to seize one village, but Kurdish forces backed by air strikes later succeeded in retaking it. One policeman and five peshmerga, including a colonel and the son of a Kurdish politician, were killed and 28 wounded in the fighting, officers and a doctor said.

The fighting began when soldiers and police pulled back from Al-Hoz, an area that stretches from Ramadi’s south to its centre, Shandukh said, adding the government complex area was now being defended by security forces and several hundred tribesmen. Another officer, Colonel Salah Arrak al-Alwani, also confirmed fighting in central Ramadi, and said it had been going on for nine hours. “If we lose Anbar, that means we will lose Iraq,” the province’s governor, Ahmed al-Dulaimi, told Al-Anbar television from Germany, where he is recovering after being wounded by a mortar round in September.

Headline: Jihadist training camps expand across Syria and Iraq
Jihadist organisations in Iraq and in Syria are operating at least 46 military training camps, designed to indoctrinate and train recruits, an investigation has found. The development comes as Theresa May, the home secretary, has warned that the expansion of jihadist movements in Iraq and in Syria means the likelihood of terror attacks in Britain is higher now than at any point in the country’s history. “When the security and intelligence agencies tell us that the threat we face is now more dangerous than at any time before or since 9/11 we should take notice,” she said. A report from the Long War Journal has identified dozens of training camps belonging to the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (Isil), Jabhat al-Nusra (al-Qaeda’s branch in Syria), and several other smaller hardline units. Compiling video footage, messages posted by jihadists on social media and US military press releases, the Journal has determined the location of 34 camps in Syria and 12 in Iraq.

Headline: Advanced Russian warplanes arrive in Crimea
Russian forces are still operating in eastern Ukraine, providing the backbone of separatist rebels fighting the Kiev government, NATO’s top military commander said on Wednesday after talks with Ukrainian leaders. U.S. Air Force General Philip Breedlove, visiting Kiev as head of U.S. forces in Europe, said Russia’s “militarization” of the Crimea peninsula it annexed from Ukraine in March meant Moscow could exert influence over almost the entire Black Sea region. Breedlove met Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko and others in the pro-Western leadership to discuss ways the United States could assist Kiev’s defense potential in the conflict with Russian-backed separatists in eastern territories. Asked for an assessment of the situation, Breedlove said Russian troops in the east were “training, equipping, giving backbone …helping (separatist) forces in the field.” Russia denies sending troops or equipment to the rebels but accuses Kiev of using indiscriminate force against civilians in the two eastern territories of Donetsk and Luhansk. Breedlove said Russian forces were also helping the rebels “understand the advanced weaponry that is being brought across”, referring to military equipment which Kiev and the West says is being funneled into Ukraine from Russia.

Sudan’s government has asked the UN-African Union force in Darfur (Unamid) to shut its human rights office, the joint peacekeeping mission says. The move comes amid tensions over the mission’s attempt to investigate allegations of mass rape by Sudanese troops in the Darfuri village of Tabit. The authorities initially refused access to the village; when Unamid did get there it found no evidence. Darfur has been in conflict since 2003, when rebels took up arms. Unamid has a mandate to stem violence against civilians and currently has nearly 16,000 personnel deployed in the troubled western region. The conflict in Darfur is now being waged on many fronts and by different groups involving pro-government forces, rebels, militias and involving inter-ethnic violence.

Libya’s various militias and the internationally recognised government of Prime Minister Abdullah al-Thani have been engaged in a violent power struggle for months, resulting in the establishment of parallel administrations. The internationally recognised government in Tobruk says it was forced to hit the Mitiga airbase because it had fallen under the control of a rival administration in Tripoli.

The radical militia “is one of the most brutal threats to the lives of the people in the region… that there has ever been,” she told parliament, after recently attending a summit of 20 leading economies in Australia. “The IS is also attracting thousands of foreign fighters… from all G20 countries, whether it’s in the other hemisphere or here in Europe.” “Their radical lack of inhibition and willingness to murder also threatens our security,” she said of the extremist group. Germany believes that some 550 of its citizens have joined the jihadist cause in Iraq and Syria, of whom some 60 have died in combat or suicide attacks and about 180 have returned home. Germany is supplying Kurdish fighters in northern Iraq with weapons, ammunition and other aid to fight the IS but says it will not join the US, Britain and other nations in airstrikes against the jihadists.

Some 7,000 foreigners have been banned from entering Turkey and 1,100 people were deported on suspicions that they may join jihadist groups, according to the minister. Mevlüt Çavuşoğlu said it was unfair to expect Turkey, which has a 1,000-kilometer-long border with Syria and Iraq, to fight alone with the problem of foreign fighters crossing through Turkish territory. He called on international community to share intelligence with Ankara on suspected militants so they can stop them from entering Turkey. According to media reports in Turkey, most foreign nationals seeking to travel to Syria to join militant groups, including IS, travel via Turkey.

National Guard reinforcements watched over riot-scarred streets Wednesday after a show of force that appeared to hold down unrest but also symbolized the widening tensions from Ferguson’s struggles over law enforcement and race. “I think generally it was a much better night,” St. Louis County Police Chief Jon Belmar said after a decision by Missouri’s governor to triple the National Guard presence in the St. Louis suburb. Still, there was no way to keep a complete lid on the simmering anger. At least 45 people were arrested, including three stemming from alleged assaults against police officers, authorities said. During the night, groups of protesters gathered outside police headquarters in Ferguson and pelted officers with stones and frozen water bottles. Police in some sites responded with tear gas and pepper spray. Others protesters marched near the charred rubble of some of the buildings burned amid the initial rage from late Monday’s announcement — expected by many — that a grand jury did not indict police officer Darren Wilson for the August shooting of an unarmed black teenager, Michael Brown. Five miles south of Ferguson, two FBI agents were shot and wounded while assisting police execute an arrest warrant. An FBI spokeswoman in St. Louis, Rebecca Wu, said the incident in Universal City was not related to the Ferguson unrest, the Associated Press reported.

Businesses will have a $3,000-per-employee incentive to hire illegal immigrants over native-born workers under President Obama’s sweeping action on illegal immigration. Because of a kink in ObamaCare, businesses will not face a penalty for not providing illegal immigrants health care, The Washington Times reports. Illegal immigrants are ineligible for public benefits such as buying insurance on ObamaCare’s health exchanges. Congressional aides condemned the loophole saying it puts illegal immigrants ahead of Americans in the job hunt. “If it is true that the president’s actions give employers a $3,000 incentive to hire those who came here illegally, he has added insult to injury,” Rep. Lamar Smith, Texas Republican told The Washington Times. “The president’s actions would have just moved those who came here illegally to the front of the line, ahead of unemployed and underemployed Americans.”

Suicide attacks by two female bombers at a crowded market in northern Nigeria’s Maiduguri city have killed 78 people, medical officials say. One teenage girl blew herself up first and as people gathered to help victims, the second girl detonated herself, witnesses say. The girls, dressed in full hijab, entered the busy market and detonated their explosives, said Abba Aji Kalli, the coordinator of a government-backed vigilante group in Borno, AP news agency reports. The first bomber killed about three women, he said. When people gathered at the scene, the second bomber screamed and blew herself up, killing about 30, Mr Kalli added. On Monday, suspected insurgents took over Damasak town, less than 200km (125 miles) from Maiduguri, setting fire to houses and killing an unspecified number of people. The assailants entered the town disguised as traders, carrying boxes which were packed with AK-47 rifles. No group has said it carried out the attacks, but the militant Islamist group Boko Haram is suspected. Its insurgency is to establish what it calls an Islamic state. Campaign group Amnesty International says that the group killed at least 1,500 people in early 2014.

A Yemeni government source had earlier said the foreigner was a US military instructor who worked at Al-Anad air base in Lahej province, 60 km north of the port city of Aden. But in Washington, a US defense official said “there were no US personnel rescued from Yemen last night.”
The official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said US authorities applauded the Yemeni government for the hostage rescue operation. He referred requests for information to the Yemeni government. The committee said in a statement that one member of the Yemeni security forces was lightly wounded in the operation.

Headline: Al khalifa regime forces attack Bahraini protesters
Bahrani troops have attacked people protesting the Al Khalifa regime security forces’ storming of a prominent cleric’s home, amid an ongoing crackdown on dissent. On Tuesday, the regime’s forces used rubber bullets and teargas to disperse protesters gathered on the streets of Diraz and Sadad, denouncing the raid on the house of Shia cleric Ayatollah Sheikh Issa Ahmed Qassem on Saturday. Witnesses said the regime forces took photos of the ID cards of all those present in the house in Diraz, west of the capital Manama. The regime’s recent move, which has also been condemned by Lebanon’s Hezbollah, happened just days after people voted in an alternative election held by the main opposition parties of Bahrain. The opposition had boycotted the parliamentary elections which were held with a low turnout on the same day across the tiny kingdom.

Headline: 86 protesters arrested in Hong Kong clashes
Police in Hong Kong have detained 86 protesters who engaged in clashes with security forces during an operation to clear barricades in a key protest site. The people were apprehended on Tuesday after they scuffled with law enforcement forces overseeing dozens of workers who were dismantling makeshift barriers in a small part of a busy shopping street in the Mong Kok district. Among the detainees, who are accused of violating a court order over the clearance of the area, unlawful assembly, and assaulting police, was lawmaker Leung Kwok-hung, known as Long Hair. Police said nine officers were wounded during the scuffles. Enforcing the court order, the workers cleared Argyle Street in Mong Kok in about five hours.

Decline of the Euro– ““ When He opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, “Come and see.” So I looked, and behold, a black horse, and he who sat on it had a pair of scales in his hand. 6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four living creatures saying, “A quart of wheat for a denarius, and three quarts of barley for a denarius; and do not harm the oil and the wine.” (Revelation 6:5-6)“Whereas you saw the feet and toes, partly of potter’s clay and partly of iron, the kingdom shall be divided; yet the strength of the iron shall be in it, just as you saw the iron mixed with ceramic clay. 42 And as the toes of the feet were partly of iron and partly of clay, so the kingdom shall be partly strong and partly fragile. 43 As you saw iron mixed with ceramic clay, they will mingle with the seed of men; but they will not adhere to one another, just as iron does not mix with clay.” (Daniel 2:41-43)
Headline: Eurozone ‘grinding to standstill’, OECD warns
The eurozone is “grinding to a standstill” and now poses “a major risk to world growth”, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) has warned in a report which urges the European Central Bank (ECB) to expand its stimulus programmes. The stark warning is part of the biannual economic outlook report published on Tuesday (25 November) by the Paris-based think tank, whose members represent the world’s most advanced economies apart from China. “Intensified monetary support is critical to growth”, said Catherine L. Mann, the OECD’s chief economist and author of the Economic Outlook. The report calls on the ECB to “further expand its monetary support including through asset purchases [quantitative easing]”. “If demand does not pick up as projected, some economies, notably the eurozone, could get stuck in persistent stagnation”. The 18-country bloc is forecast to expand by 0.8 percent over the course of this year and by 1 percent in 2015, although both projections have been revised down this year as the eurozone’s fragile recovery has slowed.

And the name of him who sat on it was Death, and Hades followed with him. And power was given to them over a fourth of the earth, to kill with sword, with hunger, with death (Thanatos in Greek meaning the death of the body whether natural or violent), and by the beasts of the earth” (Revelation)

Headline: Number of Ebola cases nears 16,000 as Sierra Leone loses ground: WHO
Burial workers in the Sierra Leonean city of Kenema have dumped bodies in public in protest at non-payment of allowances for handling Ebola victims. The workers, who went on strike over the issue, left 15 bodies abandoned at the city’s main hospital. One of the bodies was reportedly left by the hospital manager’s office and two others by the hospital entrance. The workers have now been sacked for treating the corpses in a “very, very inhumane” way, an official said. Sierra Leone is one of the countries worst affected by this year’s Ebola outbreak, with more than 1,200 deaths. Kenema is the third largest city in Sierra Leone and the biggest in the east, where the Ebola outbreak first emerged in the country. The burial workers told a BBC reporter they had not been paid agreed extra risk allowances for October and November. The BBC’s Umaru Fofana in Freetown says the bodies have now been taken away but the workers had refused to end their strike.

Apostasy & Alternative Lifestyles Amos 8:11, 1 Timothy 4:1-3 & Romans1:26-27 “Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons, 2 speaking lies in hypocrisy, having their own conscience seared with a hot iron, 3 forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from foods which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth.” (1 Timothy) “Behold, the days are coming,” says the Lord God, “That I will send a famine on the land, Not a famine of bread, Nor a thirst for water, But of hearing the words of the Lord.” (Amos) “For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due”(Romans)
Headline: Arkansas, Mississippi overturn gay marriage bans
Arkansas and Mississippi became the latest two states Tuesday to have their gay marriage bans overturned by federal judges, but there are no rushes to the altar as both orders are on hold so the states can consider appeals. Like several states, Arkansas and Mississippi had voter-approved constitutional amendments pass in 2004 that defined marriage between one man and one woman. In Arkansas, U.S. District Judge Kristine Baker ruled in favor of two same-sex couples who had challenged the amendment. They argued the ban violated the U.S. Constitution and discriminated based on sexual orientation. “The fact that Amendment 83 was adopted by referendum does not immunize it from federal constitutional scrutiny,” Baker wrote in her ruling. Besides the amendment, Mississippi has a 1997 law that bans same-sex marriage. But U.S. District Judge Carlton Reeves wrote in his ruling, “The Fourteenth Amendment operates to remove the blinders of inequality from our eyes. Though we cherish our traditional values, they must give way to constitutional wisdom. Mississippi’s traditional beliefs about gay and lesbian citizens led it to defy that wisdom by taking away fundamental rights owed to every citizen. It is time to restore those rights.

Headline: Atlanta’s Fire Chief Suspended For Publicly Professing Christian Beliefs
Even in Atlanta you will be made to care. Atlanta’s Fire Chief, Kelvin Cochran, has been suspended for one month for writing a book in which he maintains orthodox Christian beliefs on sex and marriage. According to the Atlanta Business Chronicle, Atlanta Fire Chief Kelvin Cochran is suspended for one month without pay after publishing a book that says homosexuality and having multiple sexual partners is “vile,” “vulgar”, and “inappropriate”. The 162-page paperback titled “Who Told You That You Were Naked?” is being sold at Amazon.com. Chief Cochran is an evangelical Christian who has not shied away from his faith in the past. He left the Atlanta Fire Department to take a job in the Obama Administration. He returned, however, to the city he loves to head its Fire Department. But the gay mafia is loudly complaining that Chief Cochran, by writing this book, will suddenly now not put out the fires of gay homes, or something like that. Specifically, the accusation is that by being honest about his orthodox Christian views on sex and marriage, Chief Cochran is undermining the public trust in him. You’d think the government would appreciate Kelvin Cochran being a role model to young black men in Atlanta, but they are instead much more focused on not offending the gay rights community. What Mayor Reed and the gay rights community are saying is that if you work for government you cannot be open about your Christian faith. Again, you will be made to care.
