Headline:    Abbas seeks British apology for 1917 declaration

Britain should apologize for its 1917 declaration endorsing the founding of a Jewish homeland in Palestine and should recognize Palestine as a state, Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas said on Thursday. Speaking at the UN General Assembly, Abbas said that the Palestinian people had suffered greatly because of the Balfour Declaration in which Britain said it favored the establishment of a national home for the Jewish people in Palestine but that this should not undermine the rights of others living there. “We ask Great Britain, as we approach 100 years since this infamous declaration, to draw the necessary lessons and to bear its historic, legal, political, material and moral responsibility for the consequences of this declaration, including an apology to the Palestinian people for the catastrophes, misery and injustice this declaration created and to act to rectify these disasters and remedy its consequences, including by the recognition of the state of Palestine,” Abbas said. “This is the least Great Britain can do.” The British mission to the United Nations had no immediate comment. Abbas raised the 1917 declaration – named for Arthur Balfour, then the British foreign secretary – in the context of other milestones, including the 1948 UN General Assembly resolution partitioning Palestine into two states and the 1967 war when Israel occupied the West Bank and Gaza Strip. ***when looking at the above Israel map, please understand that the Balfour Declaration was written in 1917 but took until 1922 to implement

Headline:   Netanyahu invites Abbas to speak at Knesset in UN speech

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu invited Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas to come “speak to the Israeli people at the Knesset in Jerusalem,” during his speech to the United Nations General Assembly in New York on Thursday, In return, he offered to “gladly come to speak peace with the Palestinian parliament in Ramallah.” “The road to peace runs through Jerusalem and Ramallah, not New York,” Netanyahu said. In reiterating his persistent call for direct negotiations with the Palestinians, Netanyahu rejected any possible United Nations plan to unilaterally impose a solution to the conflict. “We will not accept any attempt by the UN to dictate terms to Israel,” Netanyahu said.

Headline: Top EU lawyer says Hamas should be dropped from terror list

Headline: Israel convinced EU will keep Hamas on its terror list

A top EU lawyer on Thursday said Islamist movement Hamas and Sri Lankan rebel group LTTE should be taken off the bloc’s terror list because procedural mistakes invalidated the decision to put them on it. Advocate General Eleanor Sharpston of the European Court of Justice said Thursday that a European judicial body was correct to remove Hamas and the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam from the list in 2014. The European Union imposed travel bans and asset freezes against Hamas and the LTTE under 2001 rules. The groups subsequently contested being kept on the bloc’s terrorist black list. In a statement at the time, the court explained the EU’s blacklisting of Hamas had been based on “factual imputations derived from the press and the internet” instead of “on acts examined and confirmed in decisions of competent authorities.” Stating that the European Council, which placed Hamas on the terrorism list in 2001, “did not produce the obligatory judicial effects for the designation,” the court scrapped it but kept sanctions in place for another three months pending appeal.

Headline: Mideast Quartet warns that Israeli settlements eroding two-state solution

While the Mideast Quartet – a group comprised of the US, Russia, the European Union, and the UN – recognize that neither Netanyahu nor Abbas showed any signs of rapprochement during their speeches at the UNGA, and despite the ‘acidic political climate’ between the sides, they argue that peace has yet to happen due to settlements. It said on Friday it was strongly opposed to Israel’s ongoing settlement activity, warning that it risked ending the chance of a two-state solution with the Palestinians. The Quartet emphasized its strong opposition to ongoing settlement activity, which is an obstacle to peace, and expressed its grave concern that the acceleration of settlement construction and expansion … (is) steadily eroding the viability of the two-state solution,” the Quartet said in a statement after meeting on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly.

Headline: ‘Threat of imminent attack on US Jews is real’

Painting a grim picture of Jewish vulnerability in the United States, a top U.S. security official said that the vast majority of funds earmarked to secure non-profits goes to Jewish institutions because their need is most acute. Alejandro Mayorkas, the Deputy Homeland Security Secretary, speaking Wednesday to the Orthodox Union’s annual leadership mission to Washington, said rising extremism in the United States and its threat to the Jewish community keeps him awake at night. He said the threat had shifted in the last year from the relatively small number of Americans who were radicalized overseas, to homegrown extremists whom the Islamic State terrorist group had reached through the Internet. The FBI was tracking more than one thousand suspected extremists across the United States, and they were to be found in all 50 states, he said. “They find great access to a radicalizing Islam” on the web, Mayorkas said of the homegrown extremists. “They find what they believe is purpose and meaning in their life.”

Headline: Syrian Army reinforcements pour into Golan Heights ahead of planned offensive

Syrian President Bashar al-Assad has vowed to launch an offensive against rebels along the Golan demarcation line with Israel, according to a pro-Hezbollah Lebanese daily. Al-Akhbar reported Thursday that Assad held a meeting with Talal Arslan, a Lebanese Druze political figure, during which the Syrian president declared that “his country will not permit the Israeli enemy to establish a security cordon governed by armed terrorist groups… in the Quneitra province.” “The army will soon undertake a military operation to break Israeli endeavors,” Assad reportedly said, echoing his government’s public line that Tel Aviv supervises insurgent activities along the Israeli-Syrian border. Syria’s president also told Arslan that the “siege imposed” on Quneitra’s Hader would soon be broken, a reference to positions held by rebels to the south and northeast of the Druze town, which they have regularly shelled in recent weeks.

Headline:   Syrian Army raids Islamist outpost in the Golan Heights

Around noon today, pro-government Druze units commanded by Brigadier General Osama Zahreddine – brother of renown Major General Issam Zahreddine – ambushed an outpost controlled by Islamist fighters in the Golan Heights, bordering Israel. According to a military source briefing Al-Masdar News, paramilitary loyalists sneaked in on the Al-Naqqar checkpoint and opened fire on rebels, killing 8 fighters before withdrawing to the town of Hader. Government troops suffered no casualties during the ambush but did not gain any ground in what could be described as a “hit and run” tactic. Al-Naqqar checkpoint is located near the rebel-held Hamiryah hill in the northern part of the Syrian Golan Heights. Quneitra province has recently suffered from a series of Israeli airstrikes on Syrian Arab Army (SAA) controlled villages. Syria and Israel are still at a state of war following three major wars in the past century.

Headline:     Muslim Brotherhood returns to Jordanian parliament

The Muslim Brotherhood in Jordan won 15 seats in the country’s 130-member parliament, it announced Thursday, according to The Associated Press. The announcement comes two days after 1.5 million Jordanians voted for parliament under a new proportional system. The Muslim Brotherhood’s so-called political arm, the Islamic Action Front, boycotted elections in 2010 and 2013 to protest the previous system, which it said unfairly favored pro-monarchy tribal representatives. The new coalition will be the largest voting bloc in the new parliament, enough to serve as a vocal opposition but likely too small to challenge establishment legislators, noted AP. The Jordanian branch of the Muslim Brotherhood was designated by the kingdom as a terrorist group in December of 2014 and one of its top members was later charged with “souring ties with a foreign country” by criticizing the United Arab Emirates (UAE).

Headline:        Syrian Army, Hezbollah storm southern Aleppo

The Syrian Arab Army (SAA), backed by Hezbollah and Liwaa Al-Quds (Palestinian paramilitary), stormed the southern districts of Aleppo on Thursday, targeting Jaysh Al-Fateh’s (Army of Conquest) defenses at the Old Ramouseh District. Led by the Republican Guard and 4th Mechanized Divison, the Syrian Arab Army and their allies attacked the Ramouseh Bakery, where they were confronted by a large unit of jihadist rebels this morning. Following an intense firefight, the Syrian Armed Forces and their allies established full control over the Ramouseh Bakery, leaving them within striking distance of the Sheikh Sa’eed District in southern Aleppo.

Headline:   Kingdom Comedown: Falling Oil Prices Shock Saudi Middle Class

A sharp drop in the price of oil, Saudi Arabia’s main revenue source, has forced the government to withdraw some benefits this year—raising the cost of living in the kingdom and hurting its middle class, a part of society long insulated from such problems. Saudi Arabia heads into next week’s meeting of major oil producers in a tight spot. With a slowing economy and shrinking foreign reserves, the kingdom is coming under pressure to take steps that support the price of oil, as it did this month with an accord it struck with Russia. The sharp price drop is mainly because of a glut in the market, in part caused by Saudi Arabia itself. The world’s top oil producer continues to pump crude at record levels to defend its market share. One option to lift prices that could work, some analysts say, is to freeze output at a certain level and exempt Iran from such a deal, given that its push to increase production to pre-sanction levels appears to have stalled in recent months. Saudi Arabia has previously refused to sign any deal that exempts arch-rival Iran. As its people start feeling the pain, that could change. The kingdom is grappling with major job losses among its construction workers—many from poorer countries—as some previously state-backed construction companies suffer from drying up government funding. Those spending cuts are now hitting the Saudi working middle class.

Headline: Obama vetoes bill allowing to sue Saudi Arabia over 9/11

President Barack Obama has vetoed the legislation that would allow families of 9/11 victims to sue Saudi Arabia. The bill passed unanimously in both the House and the Senate and was met with widespread public support. Known as “Justice Against Sponsors of Terrorism Act” or JASTA, the bill creates an exemption to the doctrine of sovereign immunity established by a 1976 law, thus allowing US citizens to sue foreign countries for terrorism that kills Americans on US soil. Fifteen out of 19 men who hijacked commercial airliners and used them as missiles to target the World Trade Center and the Pentagon on September 11, 2001 were subjects of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Two were from the United Arab Emirates. The Senate passed JASTA in May, while the House voted on it just before the 15th anniversary of 9/11. Republican majority leaders in Congress are confident they have enough votes to override the veto, “There will be a roll call vote on the veto override,” Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Kentucky) told reporters on Tuesday. “Our assumption is that the veto will be overridden.” “My message to the caucus is going to be, unless there are 34 people willing to fall on their swords over this, it’s probably not worth falling on your sword over,” said Bob Corker (R-Tennessee), chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. Saudi Arabia unsuccessfully tried to block the bill, using the services of its many lobbyists in Washington. Following the House vote, the Saudi-led Gulf Cooperation Council expressed“deep concern”, with Secretary General Abdullatif al-Zayani calling JASTA “contrary to the foundations and principles of relations between states and the principle of sovereign immunity enjoyed by states,” AP reported. The government of Qatar said the bill “violates international law, particularly the principle of sovereign equality between states,” according to Reuters. Ahmed Aboul-Gheit, Secretary-General of the Arab League, said the bill contradicted “established norms of the international law,” according to the Egyptian state news agency MENA.

Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov told reporters on Thursday that the Russian military command has not ruled out airstrikes against jihadist rebel groups that are allied with either Jabhat Fateh Al-Sham (formerly Jabhat Al-Nusr) and the Islamic State of Iraq and Al-Sham (ISIS). “We have witnessed the continued merger of rebel groups with universally recognized terrorist organizations all around Syria,” Ryabkov stated on Thursday. “I will not rule out operations against these forces,” the Deputy Foreign Minister added.

Syria Headline:      Russian-Syrian Aleppo tactics await the South

In scores of air raids launched early Friday, Sept. 23, Syrian and Russian bombers pulverized Syrian rebel strongholds in eastern Aleppo, while, on the ground, Syrian military, Hizballah and pro-Iranian Shiite militia forces hammered those targets in one of the most destructive onslaughts yet seen in the nearly six-day Syrian civil war. Cries of “annihilation!” came from rebel commanders, as they came under intense aerial bombardment, combined with a fierce ground assault, backed by heavy Russian T-90 tanks and artillery. Dozens of people including children are trapped in the rubble. This offensive, say debkafile’s military sources, has the twin objective of rooting the rebels out of eastern Aleppo and also driving out the app. 120,000 Sunni Syrian inhabitants penned in shrinking rebel-held neighborhoods, amid dire shortages of food, medicines, water and basic supplies. The Russian command in Syria and the Syrian General Staff are working to a tactical plan, our sources disclose, that is intended to push the Sunni civilian population as well as the rebels out of the city towards the Turkish border. If this plan plays out – it is still being coordinated with Turkish military and air force chiefs – then the refugees displaced from Aleppo will wind up in a security zone, which the Turkish army is busy carving out, living under Russian-Turkish rule in northern Syria.

The government has urged people to avoid positions held by rebels. US-Russian talks at the UN have failed to revive a collapsed truce. Activists said both Syrian and Russian warplanes were taking part in the offensive, though Russia has not confirmed its involvement.

Syrian President Bashar Assad told the Associated Press in Damascus that the Syrian Army was ‘intentionally’ targeted by US fighter jets in the eastern city of Deir Ezzor. “It was not an accident by one airplane; it was four airplanes which kept attacking the position of the Syrian troops for nearly one hour or maybe a little bit more than one hour”. On September 17, at least 62 Syrian soldiers were killed by US-led coalition airstrikes on Army posts in Jabal al-Thadreh; a strategic mount that overlooks the Deir Ezzor military airbase. “The IS troops attacked at the very same time as the American strike. How could they know that America was going to attack that position in order to gather their militants right away and attack it one hour after the strike. It was definitely intentional and not unintentional,” Assad added. When asked when this war might end, Assad replied that the conflict will more likely to drag on as long as external factors such as US, Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Qatar continue to support the ‘terrorist groups’.

Iraq Headline:    Iraqi army says it recaptured key town south of Mosul

Iraqi forces backed by air strikes from the US-led coalition gained complete control of the northern district of Shirqat on Thursday, bringing the military a step closer to a main push on Mosul later this year. Brigadier-General Yahya Rasool, spokesman for the military’s joint operations command, said in a statement broadcast on state television that the district had been liberated from “the desecration of terrorism”. Shirqat, on the Tigris River 100km south of Mosul, has been surrounded for months by Iraqi troops and Iranian-backed Shiite Muslim militias allied to the government. But the army, backed by local police and Sunni Muslim tribal fighters, conducted the fighting this week and the militias did not appear to take part. Iraqi forces advanced swiftly through the area after Prime Minister Haider Al Abadi announced the operation on Tuesday morning.

Iraq Headline:   Iraq oil fires cast doubt on Mosul mission

A fire at one of Iraq’s major oil fields could hinder military and humanitarian efforts as operations to recapture ISIS stronghold of Mosul get underway. Black smoke continues to billow into the air from the Qayara oil field, damaged by ISIS militants last month as they fled the town, creating health risks for civilians and troops amassing there. The fires are also clogging up the skies in the area, where critically important airstrikes and aerial reconnaissance missions are taking place almost daily. Located on the west bank of the Tigris River, about 40 miles (65 kilometers) south of Mosul, Qayara has since become an important staging ground for military and humanitarian efforts ahead of the Mosul operation since it was recaptured by Iraqi forces last month. “Stabilizing Qayara can’t wait – it has to happen now,” Lise Grande, the UN’s humanitarian coordinator for Iraq, told The Associated Press. “Everything for the Mosul operation hinges on Qayara,” she said. “It’s the staging ground for military forces and it’s where 350,000 of the 1 million people who are expected to flee (Mosul) will either find shelter or pass through.” There are slow-going Iraqi efforts to contain the fires, but nearly a month after the town was recaptured from the militants, smoke and toxic fumes continue to pollute the air in and around Qayara.

Kurdish  Headline:   Turkey bombs Kurdish positions near Syria’s Tel Abyad

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan accused the United States of sending more weapons to a Syrian Kurdish militia in defiance of Ankara’s repeated insistence it is a “terrorist” organisation. Although the U.S. views the the People’s Protection Units (YPG) militia as its most significant ground ally against extremists, Ankara says the fighters are “terrorists” linked to the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) which for decades has waged an insurgency in southeastern Turkey. Erdogan said late Thursday that three days earlier the U.S. sent “two planes with weapons” to Kobane in northern Syria for the YPG and its Democratic Union Party (PYD) political wing. In a speech in New York after attending the U.N. General Assembly, Erdogan said Washington was mistaken in using the YPG as an ally in the fight against ISIS. “If you think you can finish ISIS off with the PYD and YPG, you cannot, because they are terrorist groups as well,” he said in remarks posted on the presidential website.

Al-Qaeda’s former affiliate in Syria has called on opposition groups not to aid Turkish forces in the north of the country, saying they are a front for a US occupation. In a statement released on Friday, Jabhat Fateh al-Sham (JFS), formerly known as the Nusra Front, said they would not be supporting the Turkey-led Euphrates Shield operation, despite statements of support from other rebel groups. They cited US support for the Kurdish YPG, with whom Fateh al-Sham has clashed on numerous occasions, as proof of the US’s intentions. “We forbid fighting in the countryside of Aleppo province under any regional power or international coalition,” read the statement, which makes no explicit reference to Turkey, but refers to the Euphrates Shield operation in the header. “This includes aiding or co-ordinating with them. The necessary legitimate conditions for aiding [in this battle] do not exist.”

Headline:        Rouhani uses UN to hit US over nuclear deal

Iran used the UN General Assembly on Thursday to accuse the United States of failing to meet its commitments under a historic nuclear deal. President Hassan Rouhani complained that America is dragging its feet on its side of the bargain. “The lack of compliance (with the deal) on the part of the United States in the past several months represents a flawed approach that should be rectified forthwith,” Rouhani told the world body. The agreement between Tehran, Washington and five other major powers came into force in January. Iran accepted curbs to its nuclear program in exchange for their lifting sanctions. While observers say Iran has met its commitments, Tehran accuses Washington of continuing to block the Islamic republic from the international banking system, limiting its ability to benefit from the lifting of sanctions. Iran says the deal has already boosted its oil exports, but that international banks are concerned they may be prosecuted by the US Treasury if they do business with Iran. “They scare, they frighten the big banks with the threat of potential action by the United States Treasury. This is something that we oppose,” Rouhani told reporters following his address.

Headline:   House approves bill banning cash payments to Iran

Headline:     Carter: Obama did not inform military command of cash payments to Iran

The GOP-led House approved legislation late Thursday to prohibit the United States from making cash payments to Iran and require that Congress be notified before any future claims settlements with Tehran are conducted. The bill passed by a wide margin, 254-163. The measure, an election-year broadside, won ample support from Republicans aiming to rebuke the Obama administration for paying Iran $1.7 billion in cash earlier this year to settle a decades-old arbitration claim. Democrats have accused Republicans of trying to score political points with the bill. Since the initial payment was made the same day Tehran agreed to release four American prisoners, GOP lawmakers decried the payments as ransom, a charge the White House has rejected. Citing Iran’s status as a leading state sponsor of terrorism, Republicans have contended the untraceable cash will be used to finance terrorism around the world. Although the bill targets Iran, lawmakers also passed an amendment that would bar the U.S. from paying cash to other designated sponsors of terrorism and North Korea. “Cash does not leave a paper trail,” said Rep. Ed Royce, R-Calif., the Foreign Affairs Committee chairman and the bill’s sponsor. “Cash is the currency of terror.” The Obama administration has threatened a veto of the bill, calling it “an ill-advised attempt to respond to a problem — so-called ‘ransom’ payments to Iran — that does not exist.”

Headline:   US General: 10 percent of Afghanistan under Taliban control

The top U.S. commander in Afghanistan says about 10 percent of the country’s population is controlled by the Taliban and at least another 20 percent is being contested by the insurgents and the Afghan forces. Army Gen. John Nicholson tells Pentagon reporters that there are up to 1,300 Islamic State militants in Syria, mainly in the east. And he said Islamic State leaders in Syria provide money, command-and-control guidance and communications support to their militants in Afghanistan. But he says U.S. and Afghan military operations have targeted the group, killing many leaders and members, so they are in fewer Afghan districts now than they were months ago. Nicholson says he’s concerned about Afghan troop casualties, saying many are at small checkpoints where forces are not well-equipped or well-trained.

Headline:        Islamic State’s safe haven in Sirte, Libya shrinks to a ‘single neighborhood’

The Islamic State’s safe haven in Sirte, Libya has been “reduced to a single square kilometer,” Secretary of Defense Ash Carter told the Senate Armed Services Committee earlier today. Carter’s testimony was echoed by Al Bunyan Al Marsoos (“Solid Structure”) operations room, which draws fighters from militias based in Misrata and is allied with Libya’s Government of National Accord (GNA). Al Bunyan Al Marsoos launched an offensive against the Islamic State’s stronghold in May. Earlier today, it posted a map (seen above) showing the jihadists’ shrinking territory. Al Bunyan Al Marsoos has repeatedly posted versions of this map. The group indicated in mid-August that the jihadists were operating in only a few neighborhoods. That assessment was generally consistent with an infographic produced by the Islamic State’s own Amaq News Agency. The Islamic State has lost even more ground since then.

Nine protesters were also injured while police arrested 44 people, according to the police chief. Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Chief Kerr Putney said charges included looting, failure to disperse and assault. Five officers also required medical care, including two for minor eye injuries, he added.

Headline:         Mali leader warns UN: Qaeda, ISIS gaining ground in country

Mali President Ibrahim Boubacar Keita warned the United Nations on Friday that the failure to fully implement a nationwide peace accord was helping al-Qaeda and ISIS-affiliated groups spread their influence in the country. UN peacekeepers are deployed across northern Mali to try to stabilize the vast region, which was occupied by separatist Tuareg rebels and al Qaeda-linked Islamist militants in 2012 before France intervened in 2013. Tit-for-tat violence between rival armed groups has distracted Mali from fighting Islamist militants and the country has become the deadliest place for UN peacekeepers to serve. “We have to admit that several factors are contradicting our will and effort,” Keita told a high-level meeting on Mali at the annual United Nations General Assembly. “In particular the extension of terrorism and banditry in the centre of our country which is even putting into question the stability and security of neighbouring countries because of the desire of terrorist groups affiliated to al-Qaeda and ISIS seeking to expand.” A clash in the north this week between pro-government Gatia militia and the Tuareg separatist Coordination of Azawad Movements highlighted the fragility of a UN- backed deal signed last year between the government and northern armed groups meant to end a cycle of uprisings.

A homemade bomb planted in a road has killed three police officers in insurgency-plagued southern Thailand. Police in Yala province said the bomb was detonated as the officers’ car passed over it, wrecking the vehicle and killing the three instantly. Another officer was taken to a hospital with injuries. Police believe Muslim separatist insurgents were behind the attack. More than 6,000 people have been killed since the insurgency flared in 2004 in Thailand’s three southernmost provinces, the only ones with Muslim majorities in the predominantly Buddhist country.

South Korea will shoot down alleged Russian or Chinese missiles targeting the American Terminal High Altitude Area Defense anti-ballistic missile system which will be deployed on South Korean territory in 2017, according to the country’s Defense Minister Han Min-goo. The South Korean news agency Yonhap quoted the country’s Defense Minister Han Min-goo as saying that Seoul plans to shoot down alleged Russian or Chinese missiles targeting the American Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) anti-ballistic missile system, which is due to be deployed on South Korean soil in 2017. The missiles will be intercepted with the help of the THAAD system itself, which is deployed in connection with North Korea’s ongoing nuclear tests.

Headline:   Britain sends jets to intercept Russian bombers

Britain scrambled fighter jets from an airbase in Scotland to intercept two Russian bombers approaching UK airspace, the Ministry of Defence said Thursday. The Russian planes flew from the direction of Norway and passed to the west of Britain’s Shetland Islands, northeast of the mainland. A Royal Air Force spokeswoman said: “Quick reaction alert Typhoon aircraft from RAF Lossiemouth intercepted two Russian Blackjack bombers and escorted them while they were in the UK area of interest. “At no point did the Russian aircraft enter UK territorial airspace.” Two aircraft were also launched from an airbase in eastern England as “precautionary measure” but were not required. In December last year, British military officials held talks with their counterparts in Moscow over “incursions” of Russian aircraft around the UK. Defence Secretary Michael Fallon said the talks were aimed at finding ways of heading off any “miscalculation or accident”.

Headline:   UN fears third leg of the global financial crisis – with prospect of epic debt defaults

The third leg of the world’s intractable depression is yet to come. If trade economists at the United Nations are right, the next traumatic episode may entail the greatest debt jubilee in history. It may also prove to be the definitive crisis of globalized capitalism, the demise of the liberal free-market orthodoxies promoted for almost forty years by the Bretton Woods institutions, the OECD, and the Davos fraternity. “Alarm bells have been ringing over the explosion of corporate debt levels in emerging economies, which now exceed $25 trillion. Damaging deflationary spirals cannot be ruled out,” said the annual report of the UN Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD). We know already that the poisonous side-effect of zero rates and quantitative easing in the US, Europe, and Japan was to flood developing nations with cheap credit, upsetting their internal chemistry and drawing them into a snare. What is less understood is just how destructive this has been. Much of the money was wasted, skewed towards “highly cyclical and rent-based sectors of limited strategic importance for catching up,” it said. Worse yet, these countries have imported the deformities of western finance before they are ready to cope with the consequences. This has undermined what UNCTAD calls the “profit-investment nexus” that ultimately drives growth and prosperity.

Headline: US Clearing Center Is China’s Latest Move to Make Yuan Global Currency

China this week established the first clearing center for the Chinese yuan, or RMB, in the United States. The move is seen by some as a signal China wants to take on the dollar on its home turf. But there is more than a sense of bravado behind the decision. This is a crucial time for the RMB, which is struggling to stay on course while preparing to enter the coveted currency basket of International Monetary Fund’s Special Drawing Rights (SDR) on October 1.  In financial terms, there was no reason to establish an RMB clearing center as the U.S. market can easily be serviced through dedicated RMB centers in other parts of the world. “But it sends the signal that China wishes to enter the U.S. financial markets with RMB business to challenge the U.S. dollar on its home turf, so to speak,” Jacob Kirkegaard, a senior fellow at the Washington-based Peterson Institute of International Economics told VOA. “As such, this is more a political signal than a financial necessity,” he said. “This is because the RMB rate is an intensely political figure and essentially can be taken as a proxy for ‘faith in the Chinese economy.’ ”

Headline: Beached boats, pink water as drought depletes Utah’s Great Salt Lake

On the southern shore of Utah’s Great Salt Lake, more than 100 boats are sitting high and dry in a parking lot, unable to sail the shallow, drought-stricken sea. North of the nearly empty marina, salt-loving bacteria thriving in the low water has turned the liquid pink. The massive lake, key to the state’s economy and identity, is skirting record low levels after years of below-average precipitation and record heat. A few dozen lawmakers are taking a road trip Thursday and Friday to see the problems firsthand and learn what they can do to help — besides praying for more rain and snow this winter. State officials said in July, that the lake is at its lowest level since the 1960s, before the causeway was in place, CBS affiliate KUTV reported. The lake, about 75 miles long and 30 miles wide, is America’s largest outside the Great Lakes. Water levels have always fluctuated, but they have been dropping steadily since 2011. “If this continues … the ecosystem as a whole is under a pretty significant threat,” said Jason Curry, a spokesman for Utah’s Division of Forestry, Fire and State Lands.

Headline:   California child tests positive for leprosy

A child from a Southern California elementary school has been found to have leprosy. Riverside County health officials on Thursday announced the confirmation of the condition medically known as Hansen’s disease. Two children from Indian Hills Elementary School in Jurupa Valley had been diagnosed by a local doctor with the disease. But when the results were sent to a laboratory in Louisiana that specializes in leprosy tests, only one of them tested positive. Dr. Cameron Kaiser, the county’s public health officer, emphasizes that it is incredibly difficult to contract leprosy and that the school is safe. The classrooms had been sanitized since the initial diagnoses. The U.S. sees only about 150 leprosy cases occur each year. It can only be contracted through prolonged contact and is easily treated with antibiotics.

Headline: Lawyer: After School Satan Club must be allowed to proceed

A so-called “After School Satan Club” proposed by the Satanic Temple of Seattle to be held at Centennial Elementary School should be allowed to proceed, an attorney hired to represent the Mount Vernon School District said. “I think that if the school district denied that application, you would face costly litigation that would be distracting from your mission,” said Duncan Fobes of the Seattle-based law firm Patterson, Buchanan, Fobes and Leitch during a Wednesday meeting of the Mount Vernon School Board. “And would ultimately be unsuccessful.” Fobes was hired by the district’s risk-pool insurance group to assess whether the district had legal standing to deny the temple’s application. “We believe that it’s clear that, because the district has a policy and procedure that encourages the use of community groups to use your facilities, because you do that, you must open it to this group,” Fobes said. “You don’t have to sponsor the group, you don’t have to help the group.” A 2001 Supreme Court ruling, Good News Bible Club vs. Milford Central School District, stated that if schools allow any organization to use school property, they must allow all organizations — religious and secular — to have access. The Mount Vernon district is one of nine throughout the country that has been chosen by the Satanic Temple to host a pilot After School Satan Club program because the districts also host a Good News Bible Club, which is run by the Child Evangelism Fellowship. “We didn’t invite them to the school, they put our name on a website,” Centennial Principal Erwin Stroosma said. “We feel like we’re pawns in a game — someone else is manipulating us.” The temple’s application proposes renting space at Centennial for about an hour after school one day a month during the school year.

Headline:    Belgium’s 1st child euthanasia to open floodgate?

The first child euthanasia case in Belgium that prematurely took the life a teen is what many pro-life advocates are calling a clear call to not legalize doctor assisted suicide and euthanasia. Officials in Belgium have confirmed that a terminally ill 17-year-old boy – whose name and illness have not been divulged to protect anonymity – has become the first child euthanized since the Scandinavian country removed age restrictions two years ago. Belgium is the only country that allows euthanizing children – regardless of their age. Alex Schadenberg, of the Euthanasia Prevention Coalition, told OneNewsNow that there is one underlying problem. “[The problem centers around the fact that] they’ve crossed the line by deciding to kill,” the pro-life advocate asserted. He notes that doctors have broken down the walls that used to protect the sanctity of human life. “It’s okay to have a doctor lethally inject a patient,” Schadenberg expressed in disbelief. “It’s okay to have someone directly involved with causing the death of their patients. Once you’ve done that – once you’ve crossed the line – the only question now is whom are you going to do this to. That’s what’s going on here. It just continues to ever expand and in fact, the problem is that they allow it in the first place.” Schadenberg maintains it is clear that countries should never open the door to allowing a doctor or family member – or anyone else – to be allowed by law to kill another person. Once this euthanizing practice is legalized though, the conservative leader argues that it is just one natural step from allowing adults to terminate … to granting children the same right.
