12 TRIBES INHERIT LAND IN THE FUTURE

JERUSALEM (AP) — Israel on Wednesday announced new construction in east Jerusalem — an area the Palestinians demand for their future state — just hours after it freed a group of Palestinian prisoners as part of a deal to set peace talks in motion.The building is seen as an attempt by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to make up for the prisoner release, for which he has been sharply criticized at home. The prisoners were jailed for deadly attacks on Israelis.Interior Ministry spokeswoman Lital Apter said Wednesday that a total of four projects are being promoted, including 1,500 housing units in Ramat Shlomo in east Jerusalem and the development of an archaeology and tourism site near Jerusalem's sensitive Old City.The release of 26 Palestinians after midnight Tuesday was the second of four prisoner releases meant to restart Israeli-Palestinian talks in an effort to reach a final agreement between the two sides.The Palestinians had long refused to resume peace negotiations with Israel unless it ends construction in territories that Palestinians seek for their state. Israel refused, insisting that settlements and other core issues, including security, should be resolved through negotiations.The prisoner release was part of an agreement brokered by U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry, which brought Israel and the Palestinians back to the negotiating table after a five-year hiatus. The talks had been paralyzed since 2008.Earlier this year, Kerry managed to persuade Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas to drop the settlement issue as a condition for restarting negotiations. In exchange, Israel agreed to the prisoner release. In all, 104 Palestinian convicts are to be released in four rounds over the coming months.Wednesday's east Jerusalem construction move angered the Palestinians but it was not immediately clear if it would directly impact the talks, which are taking place behind closed doors and away from the public eye as both sides had agreed to."We are worried and concerned that if Israel continues with the expansion of settlements, this might kill the two states vision which we would like to see on this land," said Palestinian Prime Minister Rami Hamdallah.Nabil Abu Rdeneh, a spokesman for Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, condemned the move, saying it was "destructive to the peace efforts and will only lead to more tensions."Thousands of Palestinians have been held in Israeli prisons since Israel's capture of the West Bank, Gaza and east Jerusalem in the 1967 Mideast war, many jailed on charges ranging from throwing rocks to killing civilians in bombings, shootings and other attacks. The Palestinians want those territories for their future state. The prisoners released in the latest batch were all held by Israel for murder.Israel has a long history of lopsided prisoner exchanges with its Arab adversaries. But this week's release appeared especially charged because Israel is receiving little in return except for the opportunity to conduct negotiations that few people believe will be successful.Danny Danon, a hawkish minister from Netanyahu's Likud party condemned the release in an interview with Israel Radio. "It is tough to see terrorists celebrate when their place is either under the ground or in jail," Danon said, adding that the release sends the wrong message to young Palestinians. He stressed that his party was committed to building in Jerusalem.Yossi Beilin, a dovish former Israeli peace negotiator, questioned the wisdom of releasing "despicable" killers while building in east Jerusalem during talks with the Palestinians.He told Israel Radio he thinks it would have been better if construction had been frozen in order to restart talks with the Palestinians and prisoner release put off until a final peace agreement.Also, critics such as dovish members of Netanyahu's coalition said he could have avoided the release if he had accepted Palestinian calls either to stop construction in West Bank settlements or base negotiations over the borders of a future Palestinian state on Israel's pre-1967 lines.In the West Bank and Gaza, thousands celebrated long into the night as they welcomed the released prisoners. Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas greeted them at a ceremony in Ramallah. "There will be no final agreement without the release of all the prisoners," Abbas told the raucous crowd.The fate of the prisoners is a deeply emotional issue in Palestinian society. After decades of fighting Israel, many families have had a member imprisoned and the release of prisoners has been a long-standing demand. Israelis mostly view them as terrorists because of the Palestinians grisly attacks on Israelis including civilians.But the prisoner issue is extremely painful for Israelis whose loved ones were killed in attacks. Relatives of those killed had appealed against their release and held protests.Among those freed Wednesday were prisoners jailed for the killings of Israelis, including a reservist and a Nazi death camp survivor, according to a list provided by Israel's prison service. Many of the killings occurred before the beginning of Israeli-Palestinian peace talks in 1993.

US Mideast czar slams settlement expansion

In speech to American Palestinian group, Philip Gordon blasts attacks by settlers on olive groves, does not mention spate of recent Palestinian terror attacks

By JTA October 30, 2013, 4:22 pm 0-The Times of Israel

WASHINGTON (JTA) — The United States strongly condemns settler violence and does not accept the legitimacy of West Bank settlement expansion, a top Obama administration official told an American Palestinian group.Philip Gordon, the National Security Council coordinator for Middle East policy, emphasized perceived Israeli transgressions in describing the difficulties afflicting renewed Israeli-Palestinian peace talks in an address Tuesday evening to the annual gala dinner of the American Task Force on Palestine.“The United States does not accept the legitimacy of continued Israeli settlement expansion,” Gordon said, an apparent reference to new housing starts announced by Israel in recent weeks.Citing attacks by settlers on Palestinian olive groves, he said, “We also strongly condemn settler violence.”Much of Gordon’s speech was focused on economic development. Gordon praised both sides for renewing talks and for confidence building measures, noting that Israel has released prisoners convicted of terrorist attacks and that the Palestinians have suspended bids to achieve statehood recognition.However, in citing elements that do not create a “conducive atmosphere” for the talks, he did not mention Israeli complaints about the Palestinians, including a spate of recent attacks and the Israeli sense that Palestinians are not doing enough to stem incitement.He praised Israel for removing some restrictions inhibiting Palestinian movement in the West Bank, but called on it to do more.The ATFP is a leading advocate for a two-state solution, and works closely with a broad array of Jewish and pro-Israel groups. Many of them were represented at the gala dinner.

Israel angry over prisoner release, West Bank apathetic

The right demonstrates against the freeing of 26 murderers, to no avail, while Palestinians face more pressing issues

By Lazar Berman October 30, 2013, 3:30 pm 0-The Times of Israel

Hebrew newspapers highlight two controversial security issues Wednesday — the release of 26 Palestinian security prisoners in the framework of negotiations with the PA, and cuts in the defense budget that will lead to thousands of IDF layoffs.Thousands of Palestinians gathered in Ramallah in the early hours of Wednesday morning to greet 21 prisoners released from Israeli custody to the West Bank as part of arrangements for the ongoing Israeli-Palestinian peace talks. Five other Palestinian prisoners were released earlier in Gaza. All 26 were convicted murderers, most of them jailed for crimes committed before the 1993 Oslo Accords.

The move, the second in a series of four planned releases as part of US-brokered peace talks with the Palestinians, raised ire in Israel’s right wing and among victims of terror, and set passions aflame in the cabinet, which approved the move Sunday night over the objections of the Knesset’s hawks.Yedioth Ahronoth has a picture below the fold on the front page of what appears to be a young Palestinian man, wearing a keffiyeh around his face and holding up blood-stained hands. It turns out the man is an Israeli protesting the prisoner release.Its coverage begins on page 4, where Yedioth recounts the last-minute efforts by families of terror victims to get the Supreme Court to postpone the release. The move was rejected by the court.The paper carries two short opinion pieces by Israelis whose family members were killed by prisoners set free last night. Giora Pomerantz, whose brother Amnon was killed in a 1990 lynch in the al-Bureij refugee camp — and one of whose killers was freed early Wednesday — wrote in support of the release. “I fought in all of the wars from the Six Day War until Lebanon. Only someone who doesn’t know war is capable of sending someone else to fight for him. I am willing to pay the enemy so there will be peace. Because my brother was murdered, I am ready to pay the price. My brother’s murderers sat in prison for more than 20 years. If they return to terror after their release, they will get what is coming to them from us.”Gila Molcho takes the opposing side. Her brother, Ian Feinberg, was serving as a lawyer helping the EU support the Gazan economy when three Palestinians, including the security guard at the site, burst into his office and slit his throat. “Three times the country betrayed me and my brother — in the Shalit deal, in the first release, and now (when one of Feinberg’s killers was freed). I did not go and demonstrate against the Shalit deal because I could not look Aviva Shalit in the eyes and tell her I am against the release of her son. I went through hell, but I kept my lips sealed. But when my brother’s blood and memory are trampled in an empty gesture, I cannot stay silent any longer. Someone needs to stop the madness.”Maariv leads with Chief of Staff Benny Gantz’s criticism of the defense cuts, though it does give the prisoner release front page treatment. The daily adds that the prisoners had to sign an agreement that they would not return to terror. “One should remember that a similar prediction [that they wouldn’t return to terror] was given on the eve of the Shalit deal, but in fact many released terrorists returned to terror activities, and ten of them have been returned to Israeli prisons,” it reports.Haaretz runs analyses from Ramallah and Gaza on the eve of the release, with Amira Hass reporting on the lack of excitement in Ramallah about the move. She writes that Palestinians are instead worried about “the abundance of collective problems that affect every family. For example, the fate of the Palestinian refugees left behind in Syria; Israel’s success in ignoring the international position and continuing the building of settlements…; the dangers from settlers facing harvesters and farmers; the salaries that are never guaranteed to be paid in a given month; the social, political, and economic collapse in East Jerusalem and its detachment from the rest of the West Bank; the blockade on Gaza that has only gotten worse since the Egyptian revolution; and the internal Palestinian political splintering whose end is nowhere near.”

Zvi Barel writes on the nadir of Hamas’s popularity and the growing movement to topple its government in Gaza. Iran and Hamas have split over Syria, Egypt under the military has turned its back, and the money sent by Qatar doesn’t come close to meeting the movement’s needs. And now, there are internal threats, especially from the Tamrod Gaza movement. That movement, which took its name from the Egyptian youth movement that toppled the Morsi government, “plans mass protests on November 11, the anniversary of Yasser Arafat’s death. On the website of Tamrod Gaza they are already urging Gazans to prepare a week’s worth of food beginning November 11 and to stay at home out of fear of an attack from armed Hamas forces.” According to the movement’s spokesperson, Tamrod Gaza “is planning to cause the fall of the Hamas government, primarily because of its oppressive governance and because ‘it has become Israel’s defense wing.’”Israel Hayom covers the prisoner release on its front page, but focuses on the settlement building the government will approve in a nod to critics on the right. “In parallel with the release: Construction of 1,500 new units,” blares the headline. Jerusalem, Maale Adumim, Beitar Illit, Ariel, and Karnei Shomron will see new construction, according to the article, in addition to a further 2,000 units in the Jordan valley, Samaria, and the Binyamin region near Jerusalem.“According to a government source, the move is coordinated with the Americans. He said, ‘It was clear on the eve of the start of the negotiations that Israel will not accept any limits on settlement building.’”The Hebrew press also covered the battle over the defense budget. IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Benny Gantz is expected to request an extra NIS 4.5 billion ($1.28 billion) for the defense budget at Wednesday’s cabinet debate, arguing that the army would have to cut training programs if it doesn’t receive the extra allotment from the Finance Ministry.At a ceremony honoring Bedouin soldiers Tuesday, Gantz said that he would fight any attempts to cut the salaries or pensions of career soldiers. “I will not under any circumstances harm the basic rights of career soldiers,” he said. “Any harm done to you, any defamatory remark directed toward you, harms Israel’s security.”“You serve — you are not workers — and you don’t have a union, don’t have tenure, and are not allowed to organize. We don’t need organizations and we won’t deal with our people through lawyers…You answered the call. Career soldiers — every Israeli knows it is their right to live in security, and to know that [you] do not go on strike — regardless of what happens,” said Gantz, according to Maariv.Haaretz combines its coverage of the defense budget with two other stories from the IDF. An internal IDF study found that Ethiopian soldiers continue to do poorly on IDF entrance exams, which keeps them out of officers’ school, the pilots’ course, and intelligence. In addition, hundreds of Haredi yeshiva students received draft notices for the second time, calling on them to show up at the draft center within the next month, after their previous notices were delayed. It is possible, Haaretz writes, that these notices will be delayed as well as the Knesset grapples with the question of the ultra-Orthodox draft.

IDF, Finance Ministry square off in budget battle

Cabinet debates whether to grant military’s request of an additional NIS 4.5 billion in the coming year

By Spencer Ho October 30, 2013, 10:39 am 1-The Times of Israel

IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Benny Gantz was set to request an extra NIS 4.5 billion ($1.28 billion) for the defense budget at a cabinet debate on Wednesday afternoon, arguing that the army would have to cut training programs if it doesn’t receive the extra allotment from the Finance Ministry.In May, the government set the IDF budget at NIS 51 billion ($14.5 billion). The military took a cut of NIS 3 billion from its 2014 budget, but is now arguing that the cuts will actually amount to NIS 7.4 billion due to factors beyond the IDF’s control, such as higher electricity costs and taxes, payments for injured soldiers and additional benefits for career soldiers due to the rising retirement age.For its part, the IDF says it has done its part to live up to its end of the budget, making cuts to its workforce and, in June, halting operational activity for reservist units for the rest of this year.Defense Minister Moshe Ya’alon, a former IDF chief of staff, has come out on the military’s side in the debate.“The treasury is exploiting the public mood, which can harm our career soldiers,” he said in a Knesset committee hearing Monday. “At the next hearing on the defense budget, the Treasury will require us to dismiss 4,500 career soldiers, and there won’t be a public outcry as there was when Teva [Pharmaceuticals] threatened to lay off 800 employees.”The Finance Ministry contends, however, that Ya’alon initially supported the budget cuts, and that at the moment there is no excess fat to trim from the budget. Thus, Treasury officials say, any extra allotment to the military would have to come from the social services budget.At a ceremony honoring Bedouin soldiers Tuesday, Gantz said that he would fight any attempts to cut the salaries or pensions of career soldiers.“I will not under any circumstances harm the basic rights of career soldiers,” he said. “Any harm done to you, any defamatory remark directed toward you, harms Israel’s security.”On Sunday, Ya’alon accused the FinanceMinistry of trying to renegotiate pensions and wages for career soldiers.“I consider myself responsible for representing career soldiers,” Ya’alon said. “One of the Finance Ministry’s offers is ‘let’s manage the salaries and pensions.’ Can I abandon career soldiers’ fates to the [Finance Ministry's] hands?”In August 2010, the two sides agreed to raise the salaries and pensions of career soldiers in line with the rise in retirement age, but that agreement has yet to be implemented.The IDF criticized reports that depicted career soldiers living the good life, countering that 25 percent of career soldiers make less than the minimum wage.

1 And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters:
2 With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication,(VATICAN IN POLITICS) and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication.
3 So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.
4 And the woman (FALSE CHURCH) was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour,(VATICAN COLOURS)(ANOTHER REASON WE KNOW THE FALSE POPE COMES FROM THE VATICAN) and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication:
5 And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.
9 And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth.(THE VATICAN IS BUILT ON 7 HILLS OR MOUNTAINS)

16 And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast,(WORLD DICTATOR) these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire.
17 For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled.
18 And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth.

New cardinals and a Consistory on reform on the way in February

Consistory time

I-Media news agency broke the news: in February Francis will be naming some new cardinals but before he does this he will gather all the College’s members together for a consultation

Andrea Tornielli vatican city French news agency I-Media has revealed that new cardinals are to be created in a Consistory which is to be held next 21 and 22 February. Pope Francis is to hold a meeting with all cardinals in Rome to discuss reforms with them.As Vatican Insider wrote in a recent article, 120 cardinals eligible to vote according to the limit set by Paul VI. In February 2014 there will be 14 vacancies waiting to be filled by new cardinal electors below the age of 80 and this figure will rise to 16 at the end of March. So this is the number of cardinal electors Francis will be able to create.In the Roman Curia there are three prelates who are cardinals but do not have the biretta: the Prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, Gerhard Ludwig Müller, the new Prefect of the Congregation for the Clergy, Beniamino Stella and the new Secretary of State, Pietro Parolin. The leaders of a number of archdioceses (Turin and Venice in Italy) which traditionally produced a lot of cardinals have not been given the biretta. It is too early, however, to make any predictions.In the next few months the Curia’s structures and organisation will be radically reshaped and the process of confirming and replacing members will be complete. It is not known for certain what criteria Francis will use when selecting the new cardinals.On 19 and 20 February, two days before Francis names the new cardinals, he will be meeting cardinals in Rome for talks. By then, the eight-member Council in charge of looking into Curia reform will have met three times and it is possible that this is one of the things that will be discussed during the meeting. But a month or so after the consistory, another important meeting is due to take place: the Extraordinary Synod of Bishops on the Family. This is another element that could be discussed at February’s meeting.

“Reform is going to go deep”

Francisco Javier Errázuriz Ossa

Chilean cardinal Francisco Javier Errázuriz Ossa - one of the members of Francis’ eight-member advisory Council - guarantees this

Alver Metalli Buenos Aires Chilean cardinal Errázuriz is also called Francis, but in his case this is just his christening name. Francisco Javier Errázuriz Ossa, one of the members of Pope Francis’ G8 advisory group, was in Rome at the start of October, along with the other cardinals who have been tasked with reforming the Roman Curia. With him, he carried a bunch of papers containing a summary of the observations made by the Latin American Episcopal Council (CELAM), which he headed between 2003 and 2007. Errázuriz - who became an Emeritus on 15 December 2010 after Benedict XVI accepted his resignation as leader of the Archdiocese of Santiago because of age – spoke to the Argentinean edition of Vida Nueva magazine about the meetings in Rome.He confirmed that the reforms the Pope has in mind will go deep and “could lead to a new Apostolic Constitution.” Errázuriz said cardinals had asked for this during the pre-Conclave meetings and Francis is acting on this collective wish.The Chilean cardinal who belongs to the Schönstatt movement did not hide the general sense of unease towards the Roman Curia. “There is a longing for a Curia that encourages the new evangelisation and acts as a body that is there to serve the Pope and the dioceses, not as a control centre,” he said. The reform will aim to improve coordination between the Pope’s different “ministries” and to ensure more fluid communication between the Pope and the various heads.”The time and energy John Paul II spent on travelling led him to “reduce the number of meetings he held with his collaborators.” Hence the need to revive these, hence the need for a “coordinator”, whom Errázuriz prefers to call “Secretary General of the Curia”.Reforms will also involve the internationalisation of the Curia. Errázuriz pointed out that only 3 out of the 50 cardinals who work with the Pope are Latin American. This is completely “disproportionate” and “must change”. “Not only are there few Latin American successors to the apostles, there are also few cardinals from other non European continents.” The aim of the reforms will also be to make the whole Curia structure more flexible. The Chilean cardinal asked himself whether “the Roman Curia needed to be so large” and whether some roles could be moved away from the centre, Rome, and passed onto diocesan bishops.
The Pope would also like women to play a greater role in the decision-making process and this will be taken into account when reforming the Secretariat of State for example. Its name will probably change to “Papal Secretariat”.Errázuriz, who turned 80 in September, said that it its upcoming meetings (at the beginning of December and end of February), the G8 will be examining the Curia’s various bodies.

REVELATION 9:12-18
12 One woe is past; and, behold, there come two woes more hereafter.

16 And the number of the army of the horsemen were two hundred thousand thousand:(200 MILLION MAN ARMY FROM CHINA AND THE KINGS OF THE EAST) and I heard the number of them.
17 And thus I saw the horses in the vision, and them that sat on them, having breastplates of fire, and of jacinth, and brimstone: and the heads of the horses were as the heads of lions; and out of their mouths issued fire and smoke and brimstone.(NUCLEAR BOMBS)
18 By these three was the third part of men killed, by the fire, and by the smoke, and by the brimstone, which issued out of their mouths.(NUCLEAR BOMBS)

SO NOW TURKEY HAS THIS TUNNEL AND THE ADATURK DAM WHEN THESE ARMIES CROSS INTO THE MIDEAST AGAINST ISRAEL AND THE EU.THAT THEY CAN GO ACROSS ON DRY GROUND LIKE THE BIBLE WARNED US ABOUT FROM CHINA.

Turkey fulfils sultan's dream with opening of Bosphorus tunnel

Turkey on Tuesday formally opened the world's first sea tunnel connecting two continents, fulfilling a sultan's dream 150 years ago in a three-billion-euro mega project driven by the Islamic-rooted government.The 13.6-kilometre (8.5 mile) long tunnel linking Istanbul's European and Asian sides includes an immersed tube tunnel which officials say is the world's deepest at 60 metres (nearly 200 feet) below the seabed.
The inauguration of the ambitious scheme -- dubbed "the project of the century" by the government -- coincides with the 90th anniversary of the founding of modern Turkey."Turkey will celebrate two feasts together," Transport Minister Binali Yildirim said earlier this month."We will mark the 90th anniversary of the republic on October 29 and also realise a one-and-a-half century dream of a major rail tunnel project in Istanbul."The tunnel in the country's main gateway city is part of a larger "Marmaray" project that also includes an upgrade of existing suburban train lines to create a 76-kilometre (47-mile) line that links the two continents.The idea was first floated by Ottoman sultan Abdoul Medjid in 1860 but technical equipment at the time was not good enough to take the project further.However the desire to build an undersea tunnel grew stronger in the 1980s and studies also showed that such a tunnel would be feasible and cost-effective.
Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan, a former mayor of Istanbul, revived the plan in 2004 as one of his mega projects for the bustling city of 16 million people -- which also include a third airport, a third bridge across the Bosphorus and a canal parallel to the international waterway to ease traffic.His ambitions were one cause for the massive anti-government protests that swept the country in June, with local residents complaining the premier's urban development plans were forcing people from their homes and destroying green space.Erdogan's critics accuse him of bringing forward the inauguration of the Bosphorus tunnel in time for municipal elections in March 2014.The project will not be fully operational immediately and construction is expected to continue for several more years.Japan's Prime Minister Shinzo Abe was also present at the official opening ceremony as the Japan Bank for International Cooperation was the main financer contributing 735 million euros ($1 billion) to the project.Construction of the tunnel started in 2004 and had been scheduled to take four years but was delayed after a series of major archaeological discoveries.Some 40,000 objects were excavated from the site, notably a cemetery of some 30 Byzantine ships, which is the largest known medieval fleet.But these unexpected finds eventually frustrated Erdogan, who complained two years ago that artefacts were trumping his plans to transform Istanbul's cityscape."First (they said) there was archaeological stuff, then it was clay pots, then this, then that. Is any of this stuff more important than people?"Transport is a major problem in Istanbul, and each day two million people cross the Bosphorus via two usually jammed bridges."While creating a transportation axis between the east and west points of the city, I believe it will soothe the problem... with 150,000 passenger capacity per hour," said Istanbul's mayor Kadir Topbas.fo/emb/hmn

Member states 'endorse' EU-wide public prosecutor

Today @ 09:16-OCT 30,13

BRUSSELS - A majority of member states are said to back a proposal for a European public prosecutor after they failed to meet a deadline to submit counter arguments.Member state national parliaments had until Monday (28 October) midnight to submit any complaints or concerns on setting up a EU-wide prosecutor tasked to tackle fraud committed against the EU budget.“A clear majority of member states have not issued reasoned opinions and can thus be counted among the probable participants to the European public prosecutor's office,” Mina Andreeva, European commission justice spokesperson, said in an email on Tuesday.A minimum of nine member states is needed to launch the office.Monday’s missed deadline means 17 have now demonstrated tacit support with only 11 member states opposed.Parliaments in Cyprus, Czech Republic, France, Hungary, Ireland, Malta, the Netherlands, Romania, Slovenia, Sweden, and the UK, issued the complaints.Both the UK and Ireland, along with Denmark, already said they would not participate when they opted out of the idea during talks on the EU's Lisbon Treaty.Andreeva said with the member state positions clarified, EU lawmakers would now push forward with the proposal, first announced in July, with an aim to have it launched in 2015.The prosecutor would have the power to conduct, prosecute, and bring to justice its own EU-wide investigations in co-ordination with member state authorities against people suspected of defrauding the EU.Its initial role to tackle EU fraud could later be expanded to other areas.
The commission claims the office is needed to tackle wide-spread fraud on the EU budget which they estimate hovers around €500 million in annual losses.A top EU official in September told the European Parliament that the real figure is in the billions, however.A majority of deputies at the Strasbourg plenary last week voted in favour of a report by Italian centre-right MEP Salvatore Iacolino.Iacolino’s report covered a wide number of crime fighting issues, including setting up the office, although the Greens voiced reservations of its law-enforcement centric focus.
