I have a Jewish daughter. This wasn’t in the plan, but I’m very glad it happened'-When it comes to Jewish ties, no GOP candidate trumps Trump-Presbyterian himself, Republican presidential hopeful’s daughter, two grandkids are Jewish; has been longtime supporter of Israel-By Uriel Heilman August 8, 2015, 3:09 am-the times of israel
NEW YORK (JTA) — Among the expansive field of Republican presidential candidates on display in the party’s first debates Thursday night, Donald Trump may be the most closely connected to the Jewish people.Trump is from New York, works in professions saturated with Jews and long has been a vocal supporter of Israel. His daughter and two grandchildren are Jewish, the executive vice president of his organization is Jewish — and Trump certainly has chutzpah.But if you expect to find Jewish donors of influence in Trump’s network of associates, you’ll be disappointed: The billionaire’s campaign is self-financed, not donor-funded. Forbes estimates Trump’s net worth at about $4 billion; Trump says he’s worth $10 billion.As the main attraction of the Republican debate, Trump’s trademark chutzpah was on sharp display. When asked about past references to women he dislikes as “fat pigs,” “slobs” and “disgusting animals,” Trump said he has no time for political correctness. He bragged about how Hillary Clinton dared not miss his most recent wedding because he donated to her campaign. And he refused to rule out running as a third-party candidate should someone else win the Republican nomination.Given his myriad Jewish associations, Trump is not an unfamiliar face in Jewish circles. He has served as a grand marshal at New York’s annual Salute to Israel Parade. After Hurricane Katrina, he was among a group of celebrities who decorated Jewish federation tzedakah boxes to be auctioned off to support hurricane disaster relief. And in February, he was honored with an award at the annual gala for the Algemeiner, a right-wing Jewish news organization.“I have a Jewish daughter. This wasn’t in the plan, but I’m very glad it happened,” Trump said at the event, held in Manhattan. On Israel, he said, “We love Israel. We will fight for Israel 100 percent, 1,000 percent. It will be there forever.”Before the 2013 Israeli election, Trump recorded a video message endorsing Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.“You truly have a great prime minister in Benjamin Netanyahu. He’s a winner, he’s highly respected, he’s highly thought of by all,” Trump said in the 30-second spot. “Vote for Benjamin – terrific guy, terrific leader, great for Israel.”By the same token, Trump has made clear he believes President Barack Obama is bad for Israel and has questioned how American Jews could support the president.“I have many Jewish friends that support Obama and I say, ‘Why?’ and they can’t explain why. They support him, they give him money, they give him campaign contributions,” Trump told radio host Michael Savage in February. “This is the worst enemy of Israel.”Trump at times has dabbled in Israeli real estate. About a decade ago, he bought a site in the Tel Aviv metropolitan area with plans to build Israel’s tallest building, to be called Trump Plaza Tower. He later sold the Ramat Gan property to an Israeli firm before its development. In 2012, Trump met with Israel’s tourism minister to discuss possible investments in real estate and tourism, according to the Israeli news website Ynet.Trump’s closest Jewish association is with his daughter Ivanka’s family. Ivanka Trump, a fashion designer and celebrity in her own right, converted to Judaism before marrying Jared Kushner, the son of New York Jewish real estate mogul Charles Kushner.She studied for her Orthodox conversion with Rabbi Haskel Lookstein of Manhattan’s Kehilath Jeshurun synagogue and the Ramaz School, and Lookstein officiated at her wedding. Trump and Kushner are members of Lookstein’s Orthodox synagogue and are Shabbat observant. They have two children.Donald Trump is Presbyterian. He has said he goes to church on Christmas, Easter and special occasions.When it comes to The Trump Organization, Trump’s right-hand man is a Jewish lawyer, Michael Cohen, who also serves as a top campaign aide. Cohen ignited controversy last week by suggesting that spousal rape doesn’t count as rape. He later apologized, saying his remarks were “inarticulate.”Trump, of course, doesn’t shy away from controversy himself. Just since announcing his candidacy in June, he has called illegal Mexican immigrants rapists, disparaged Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), for getting captured in the Vietnam War and publicly disclosed Sen. Lindsey Graham’s private mobile phone number at a campaign rally.On Israel, he said, ‘We love Israel. We will fight for Israel 100 percent, 1,000 percent. It will be there forever’Then there was Thursday night’s Republican debate. Following his verbal fireworks on stage, he doubled down on Twitter, saying, “I really enjoyed the debate tonight even though the @FoxNews trio, especially @megynkelly, was not very good or professional!” He was apparently referring to Kelly’s question about Trump’s comments on women.Trump’s record suggests he’s far from a Republican ideologue. He has given money both to Democratic and Republican candidates, including Republican primary rivals and Hillary Clinton, the likely Democratic nominee for president. Trump at varying times has supported liberal policies like abortion rights as well as Tea Party causes like strict immigration restrictions. In the debate, he stood by his past support for single-payer health care, saying that he thought it worked well in Canada and could have worked in the past in the United States.Overall, Trump doesn’t appear to have very many fixed policy positions. Unlike the other Republican candidates, he has no policy section on his campaign website.When Ivanka Trump introduced her father at the Algemeiner dinner six months ago, she said, “He has used his voice often and loudly in support of Israel, in support of developments within Israel, in support of security for Israel and in support of the idea of the Israeli democracy.”One thing is certain of Donald Trump: As long as he stays in this campaign, he will continue to use his voice often and loudly.

GOP donors wanted Bush, Rubio, and Walker to boycott debates unless Trump was disqualified-posted at 12:41 pm on July 23, 2015 by Allahpundit-hotair
So, so dumb, but that’s our donor class for you.Many national Republican officials are increasingly resigned to Mr. Trump’s looming presence. At a meeting of the Republican Governors Association this week in Aspen, Colo., donors and operatives mused about how to prevent him from hijacking the debate.One idea that came up was to urge three leading candidates — Jeb Bush, the former Florida governor; Mr. Walker; and Senator Marco Rubio of Florida — to band together and state that they would not participate in any debate in which Mr. Trump was present, using his refusal to rule out a third-party bid as a pretext for taking such a hard line. The thinking, according to a Republican involved in the conversations, was that the lesser-funded prospects who have been eclipsed by Mr. Trump would follow suit, and the TV networks airing the debates would be forced to bar Mr. Trump in order to have a full complement of candidates.But none of the campaigns have shown any appetite for such solidarity, for reasons ranging fromtheir strategic interests and not wanting to make Mr. Trump a martyr, to fear of making an enemy of Fox News, the preferred cable network of conservatives and the host of the first debate.You already know the main reason this is stupid. Let me add another: Bush, Walker, and Rubio can each argue, somewhat credibly, that having Trump in the race is good for them. For Jeb, he’s a big-name foil, a guy whom Bush can use to underscore his own comparative moderation and electability. There may be nothing worse to many “somewhat conservative” voters than nominating a Bush … unless the alternative is nominating Donald Trump. For Walker, what could be sweeter than having Trump around throwing roundhouses at Bush for being a RINO and a loser? He’s making the same bet that Ted Cruz is, that Trumpmania will cool once Republican voters start to get serious about picking a candidate. And Walker’s well positioned to pick up Trump voters (and “anyone but Jeb” voters) thanks to his newfound hawkishness about the border. As long as Trump doesn’t hang around the race too long, denying Walker the anti-Bush votes he needs in the early states, he’s pure upside. As for Rubio, he’s pitching himself to righties as the party’s best chance to cut into Hillary’s domination of the Latino vote. The more Trump grumbles about Mexican rapists, the more desperate some undecideds will become to heal that rift with Hispanics before the general election. Rubio, thanks to his Gang of Eight pedigree and his Cuban heritage, may be the closest thing the GOP has to a “magic bullet.” And the more damage Trumpzilla does over the next six to nine months, the more compelling that case for Rubio becomes. So why would any of these guys want to drive Trump off the stage? Especially when he’s already hinting about going third-party if he feels insulted?Actually, there’s a third reason why the boycott idea is dumb: Why would anyone assume that the also-rans in the race would follow the lead of Bush, Walker, and Rubio by boycotting? They’d love to have those guys off the stage. Instead of being relegated to the JV debate at 5 p.m. on August 6th, they’d end up as part of the main show with a gigantic audience thanks to Trump. They could stand there and say, not unpersuasively, that any man who’s afraid to debate Donald Trump has no business negotiating for the United States against Vladimir Putin. If I were an advisor for Chris Christie or Bobby Jindal, I’d be salivating at the thought that Team Jeb might conceivably be so stupid as to cede them the spotlight that way. The only candidate who’s polling badly for whom this might present a dilemma is Rick Perry. Given what he said yesterday, he’d have to at least entertain the idea that Trump’s presence in a debate delegitimizes it to the point where it’s not worth participating in it. But even Perry, I think, would seize the opportunity and show up. After all, he’s the guy who’s trying to make his mark by confronting “Trumpism” directly. Why would he pass on a chance to impress Republican voters by confronting Trump himself face to face? Via the Daily Caller, here’s the Glenn Beck Show yesterday declaring itself a Trump-free zone. I’ll leave you with two quotations to chew on. The first comes from RCP: “[Rick Perry] said he has confidence that the Fox News debate’s moderators—Chris Wallace, Megyn Kelly and Bret Baier—will be able to rein in the loquacious business magnate and keep him from stealing the show.” And the second comes from … Bret Baier: “I’d be lying to you if I didn’t say that I have woken up in cold sweats wondering how I’m going to deal with a Donald Trump who’s not listening,”

Why Donald Trump was banned from RedState event in Atlanta-August 8, 2015-ATLANTA JOURNAL CONSTITUTION
Donald Trump is not coming to Atlanta this weekend after all.The organizer of the RedState Gathering has rescinded the Republican presidential candidate’s invitation to speak at a Saturday evening rally at the College Football Hall of Fame. Erick Erickson said the billionaire’s comments about Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly were “a bridge too far.” Trump told CNN on Friday that “you could see there was blood coming out of her eyes. Blood coming out of her wherever” as she questioned him during Thursday’s Republican presidential debate. Here’s precisely what Trump said:Erickson took issue with Trump’s comments — particularly the “wherever” part — in a post to his blog overnight. A taste:“[W]hile Mr. Trump resonates with a lot of people with his bluntness, including me to a degree, there are just real lines of decency a person running for President should not cross.“His comment was inappropriate. It is unfortunate to have to disinvite him. But I just don’t want someone on stage who gets a hostile question from a lady and his first inclination is to imply it was hormonal. It just was wrong.”Erickson elaborated on Saturday morning, telling the event’s hundreds of attendees that he thought it was “weak and pathetic to take a tough question from a journalist and assume she’s on her period and that’s why she asked a tough question.”“I have said some really unfortunate things in my life, and I’ve apologized for them. It is not political correctness, it’s common decency,” said Erickson, an occasional, paid analyst for Fox News. “If you don’t have a little voice in your head saying, ‘No you actually screwed up,’ it’s going to end badly for you.”He added: “I don’t want Donald Trump in the room with my daughter tonight so that’s why he was disinvited.”In an interview with The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Erickson said he called and emailed the Trump campaign late Friday night in search of clarification or an apology. Neither came.“They were immediately hostile and refused to even admit he said it,” Erickson said. Trump on Saturday took to Twitter to defend himself and said the “wherever” part of his comments to CNN referred to Kelly’s “nose.”Erickson isn’t buying it.“Yeah, whatever,” he said. “Last night they weren’t even willing to do that. I’m sorry if it takes you that long to come up with that response, you’re not going to be elected president.”As Erickson mentioned above, he is no stranger to provocative remarks. In 2013, he repeatedly referred to Texas state Sen. Wendy Davis as “Abortion Barbie.” That earned him the ire of another Fox News host: Greta Van Susteren, who called Erickson a “jerk” and a “repeat offender.” But on Saturday, Erickson said what Trump said about Kelly was much worse than what he said about Davis.“Oh yeah, I think it’s fundamentally worse,” he said. “Wendy Davis’ profile in Vogue was about her pink shoes and good looks. They were trying to use that until it became a negative connotation. All Megyn Kelly did was ask a tough question.”A Trump campaign spokesperson quickly fired back at Erickson via email:“This is just another example of weakness through being politically correct. For all of the people who were looking forward to Mr. Trump coming, we will miss you. Blame Erick Erickson, your weak and pathetic leader. We’ll now be doing another campaign stop at another location.”As other GOP candidates seized on his CNN comments – businesswoman Carly Fiorina tweeted “Mr. Trump: There. Is. No. Excuse.” – Trump said this morning his quote was misinterpreted.He later blamed political correctness – a common trope in his campaign – for Erickson’s decision. From a Trump campaign statement:“Not only is Erick a total loser, he has a history of supporting establishment losers in failed campaigns so it is an honor to be uninvited from his event. Mr. Trump is an outsider and does not fit his agenda. Many of the 900 people that wanted to hear Mr. Trump speak tonight have been calling and emailing — they are very angry at Erickson and the others that are trying to be so politically correct. To them Mr. Trump says, “We will catch you at another time soon.”At the RedState event on Saturday morning, bleary-eyed attendees awoke to surprise at the news that Trump would no longer attend.Among them was Michael Pemberton, a 66-year-old retiree from Kentucky who scrawled “I AM DONALD TRUMP” on the back of a question card and tacked it to his lapel when he learned the news.Pemberton said there was nothing misogynistic about Trump’s comments, and blamed analysts for “over-interpreting” the remarks.“He has a right to speak,” said Pemberton, who said he won’t return to RedState next year. “You have every right to be offended. I wish to listen to all these people, giving them a fair hearing and deciding on your own.”Others were more supportive. Bill Hood of Canton called it “absolutely the right decision,” while Ginger Howard of Atlanta said Trump traipsed over a “line you don’t cross.”“He has said some things we glossed over, but if you want to be the president of the United States there are some things you just don’t say,” said Howard.Scott Johnson of Marietta, however, fears that Erickson’s decision may have a surprising consequence. “He should have to come and answer for what he said,” Johnson said of Trump. “I’m afraid it’s things like this that will make him make a third party run.”

The one reason Donald Trump was the clear winner of the first GOP debate-By Eugene Robinson Opinion writer August 7 at 12:36 PM
CLEVELAND-It was billed as The Donald Trump Show, and the Republican front-runner delivered. He mugged. He pouted. He projected outrage without being troubled by specificity or fact. When he got punched — and the moderators threw haymakers all night — he stuck out his chin and punched back.Eugene Robinson writes a twice-a-week column on politics and culture, contributes to the PostPartisan blog, and hosts a weekly online chat with readers. In a three-decade career at The Post, Robinson has been city hall reporter, city editor, foreign correspondent in Buenos Aires and London, foreign editor, and assistant managing editor in charge of the paper’s Style section. View ArchiveTrump made it through the first Republican debate by avoiding the one mistake that could have seriously damaged his insurgent campaign: sounding like a professional politician. For that reason alone, he seemed to me the clear winner.I watched the debate at the House of Blues in downtown Cleveland with a crowd of true-believer conservatives at a viewing party sponsored by the American Conservative Union. It might not have been a representative sample of Republican primary voters, and I should note that there was an open bar. So my observations should not be confused with actual political science.That said, it was fascinating that Trump got the loudest cheers, by far, from the beginning of the debate until about three-fourths of the way through, when either exhaustion or the bar began to take a toll and the crowd’s attention seemed to wander.Anyone who thought the Fox News moderators might go easy on the GOP field, or at least its leader, was mistaken. Yet when Bret Baier maneuvered Trump into acknowledging that he might run in the general election as an independent, there were oohs and aahs — but no catcalls. When Megyn Kelly pressed him on the crude and hurtful things he has said about women, Trump’s shrug — “What I say is what I say” — got a laugh, and his attack on “political correctness” drew applause. When Chris Wallace burrowed in on his four corporate bankruptcies, Trump’s explanation that he was just playing by the rules went over just fine.One particularly telling moment, I thought, came when Trump was asked about his previous support of Democrats, including likely nominee Hillary Clinton. The gist of Trump’s answer was this: Hey, I gave lots of money to politicians of both parties because that’s what rich and powerful people do, and in exchange they get access and influence. It’s a rotten system but that’s the way it works, and let’s not pretend otherwise.I think that exchange might help befuddled politicians and pundits understand the Trump insurrection. That is how the system works. For voters who feel powerless and marginalized, I believe it is refreshing and perhaps liberating to hear an insider talk honestly about the role big money plays in politics.Will Trump’s poll numbers continue to rise? I have no idea. But I think the GOP establishment is whistling past the graveyard if it thinks the Trump bubble has burst.It was impossible this week to walk anywhere in this lakeside city’s revivifying downtown without bumping into members of the Republican Party’s political elite, and conversations with them suggested a kind of magical thinking: Somehow, they assume, this whole Trump thing will go poof and disappear. Order will be restored to the GOP universe.That may come to pass. But I’m pretty sure it didn’t happen Thursday night.Oh yes, there were nine other men on that stage at Quicken Loans Arena. The consensus here seemed to be that Ohio Gov. John Kasich, who just squeaked into the prime-time debate, had a good evening and should continue his rise in the polls. There was also a lot of buzz about Sen. Marco Rubio (Fla.), who some saw as smooth and almost Obama-esque in a hopey-changey kind of way.Jeb Bush, by my reckoning, had a fair-to-middling night. I felt no passion from the House of Blues crowd for anything he said. If he ends up being the nominee, it will be because the party falls in line, not in love.The political cognoscenti seem to think that neurosurgeon Ben Carson had a terrible evening. I wouldn’t be surprised if his poll numbers went up. Just a hunch, but he came across as genuine and charming.As for the “kiddie table” debate held earlier Thursday, the conventional wisdom is right: Businesswoman Carly Fiorina was the star and should at least vault into the top 10. I think she’s wrong about most everything, but she’s sharp as a tack.The GOP race is full of excitement. There’s one problem: On most issues, from women’s health to national security, the party is far out of step with the general electorate. Keep that in mind as this political version of “Game of Thrones” continues to unfold.Read more from Eugene Robinson’s archive, follow him on Twitter or subscribe to his updates on Facebook.

US Jewish leader denies report he criticized Netanyahu-Malcolm Hoenlein says PM has right, obligation to speak out against nuke deal but notes ‘discomfort’ in American-Jewish community with aggressive tone-By JTA and Times of Israel staff August 7, 2015, 8:42 am 5
NEW YORK — Malcolm Hoenlein, executive vice chairman of the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations, denied reports saying he had criticized Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for urging American Jews to fight the Iran deal.In an interview Thursday with JTA, Hoenlein said the reports “could not be more inaccurate.”Hoenlein offered his criticism in a meeting Thursday with several Israeli reporters.“I think that Israeli officials should make the case on the content and the substance of the Iran deal and we will do a good job translating it into activity,” Hoenlein was quoted as saying. “I acknowledge that there is discomfort [in the American Jewish community]… The Israeli government should not be telling US Jews what they should do vis-Ã -vis their government.”Hoenlein told JTA that while noting he said in general “we don’t believe Israelis should interfere in American politics or that Americans should interfere with Israeli politics,” he also said, as reported in The Times of Israel: “I think Netanyahu has the right to say to American Jews, you have to understand the seriousness of this issue. He has the right, and by his assessment and everything we know, maybe the obligation to reach out.”Hoenlein shares Netanyahu’s opposition to the deal.
US probing if Iranian violated UN sanctions with Russia trip-Russia and Iran decline commenting on whether Quds Force commander made journey to Moscow in violation of travel ban-By Edith M. Lederer August 8, 2015, 12:36 am 1-the times of israel
UNITED NATIONS (AP) — The United States is trying to determine whether the commander of the elite Quds Force in Iran’s Revolutionary Guard recently visited Russia in violation of a United Nations travel ban, US Ambassador Samantha Power said Friday.Power said the travel ban requires all countries deny Maj. Gen. Qassem Soleimani entry into their borders, and the only exception is if the Security Council committee monitoring sanctions against Iran grants an exemption.“To our knowledge no such exemption was granted, and we would know,” Power told reporters Friday. “So these are very concerning reports but we are still, again, tracking down the facts.”Soleimaini has been on the UN sanctions blacklist since 2007, which also requires that all countries freeze his overseas assets.Fox News, citing two Western intelligence sources, reported Thursday that Soleimani arrived in Moscow on July 24 for meetings with Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu and President Vladimir Putin.Spokesmen for Iran’s UN Mission and Russia’s UN Mission both said they had no immediate comment.In June, the UN panel of experts monitoring sanctions against Iran cited media reports and published several photos of Soleimani showing that he traveled to Iraq, Syria and Lebanon — although no country had reported a violation of the travel ban.Soleimani “was reportedly organizing and training militia and regular forces in those countries,” the panel said. He was also shown on a magazine cover as a commander fighting the Islamic State group in Iraq, it said.Iran says the Quds force has played a key role in rolling back the Islamic State group, which now controls about a third of Iraq and Syria. The effort has been led by Soleimani, but Tehran insists its officers are only providing military advice and training.In the years following the 2003 US-led invasion of Iraq, American commanders repeatedly accused the Quds Force of backing Shiite militias implicated in attacks on American troops and Sunni civilians, charges denied by Tehran.2015 The Associated Press.

Iran nuclear deal opens diplomatic channels for Syria-New efforts suggest world powers more willing to engage in talks with Bashar Assad’s Tehran-backed regime-By Zeina Karam and Adam Schreck August 8, 2015, 1:12 am-the times of israel
BEIRUT (AP) — The nuclear deal with Iran was widely expected to affect other Middle East issues, and that may already be happening with Syria. A series of recent diplomatic maneuvers suggest a growing willingness to at least engage with the Iranian-backed government of Bashar Assad on ways to end the country’s civil war.The embattled leader seems no more inclined to step aside now than he did four years ago, and any agreement still looks to be far off — but the search seems to be on for an elegant solution that might, for example, allow him a transitional role. In part, it is also driven by the new leadership team in Saudi Arabia, which emerged with the accession to the throne of King Salman in January.Another factor is the emergence and spread of the violent and fanatical Islamic State group as the most potent opposition to Assad, far more so than the relatively moderate rebels who won a measure of world support after the conflict began four years ago. Despite his government’s brutality and aerial bombardment that has leveled some opposition-held areas, the 50-year-old former eye doctor now seems, at least to some, comparatively more palatable.The civil war has killed at least 250,000, displaced half the population, flooded brittle neighboring countries with refugees and has left jihadis occupying not only much of Syria but also perhaps a third of Iraq.Among the developments of recent days:— In the wake of mediation by Assad’s Russian patrons, a quiet, ice-breaking meeting took place in Riyadh in late July between Brig. Gen. Ali Mamlouk, the head of Syria’s powerful National Security Bureau, and Prince Mohammad Bin Salman, Saudi Arabia’s deputy crown prince and defense minister. That represented a significant shift and an opening of channels between two countries that have become arch foes in Syria’s conflict. Saudi Arabia along with other Gulf states has been a key backer of rebels fighting to topple Assad.— Syrian Foreign Minister Walid Moallem flew Thursday to Oman after a two-day visit to Tehran, amid unconfirmed reports in pro-Assad media outlets that the Omani government was trying to broker a meeting of the foreign ministers of Syria, Iran and Saudi Arabia.— Iran has said it is preparing to submit a four-point peace plan proposal for Syria to the United Nations. According to some reports, it includes a “national unity government.” That is code for allowing Assad a face-saving period in which he shares power — and elections under international supervision. But it would also bring some prominence to the otherwise marginalized relative moderates who have failed to dislodge Assad militarily.Although few will say so in public, there is an increasing, if grudging, acceptance that such a compromise may in the end be essential.Assad’s enormous territorial losses may be pushing him to explore diplomatic options to resolve the crisis. But he is unlikely to fully step aside, and if anything, he may be more inclined to cling to power in the hope that an Iran freed of economic sanctions would support him all the more with funds for his battered army.Dubai-based geopolitical analyst Theodore Karasik said the Iran nuclear deal, which was struck last month between Tehran and six world powers, has “opened the door to realignments and fixing geopolitical problems.”“It seems to me that all regional and international players are rushing around trying to establish a new order in the wake of the Iran deal, and it’s going to continue,” he said. “We’re seeing a huge uptick in shuttle diplomacy by all sides.”This week, US Secretary of State John Kerry, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov and Saudi Foreign Minister Adel al-Jubeir held a rare three-way meeting Monday in the Qatari capital, Doha. The session included discussions about the Syrian crisis.Lavrov also met Mouaz al-Khatib, a former president of the Syrian National Coalition opposition group whose name is often mentioned as a possible transitional figure, during his Qatar trip.Russia, a key backer of Assad’s government, is seeking to assemble an anti-terror front that would include the Syrian army, the Iraqi army and the Kurds, Lavrov said this week.Russia in particular seems to be acting as a negotiator on the Syrian question and wants to be a partner in the fight against IS, Karasik said. It also sees itself as the main player brokering new relations between the Arabs and Tehran, he said.“In the wake of the Iran deal, there are new opportunities to settle regional differences, and Russia is trying to fulfil what it sees is its historical mission to bring all sides together,” he said.Moscow also has a longstanding relationship with Iran.Italian Foreign Minister Paolo Gentiloni met al-Jubeir in Rome on Friday and told a news conference afterward that Iran can contribute to a solution to the Syrian crisis. Al-Jubeir was cool to the idea, saying “Iran has been part and parcel of the murder of the Syrian people, and therefore we believe it should have no role” in Syria’s future.The shape of any political settlement in Syria remains unclear.The US would find it extremely awkward to formally back any plan that would legitimize the Syrian government. Kerry reiterated Washington’s position in Doha, saying that “Assad and the Assad regime long ago lost legitimacy,” even as he again called for a political solution to the crisis.Iran is unlikely to drop its support for Assad even if its nuclear deal presents the prospect of a diplomatic opening with the West. Kerry said in Doha that while he hopes there can be “a turning of the page” with Iran on various regional issues, so far a diplomatic option hasn’t presented itself on Syria.Assad still has a firm grip on core areas key to his survival, even though he has lost perhaps more than half the country to hundreds of rebel groups and Islamic extremists. In a speech last month — his first public address in a year — he acknowledged his troops had lost territory and were running short on manpower, but he vowed to win the war, making clear he would fight to the end.“Despite the military defeats, politically the Syrian regime has become more viable because of the lack of alternative,” said Ayham Kamel, director of Middle East and North Africa with the Eurasia group in London.Furthermore, he said the Gulf states no longer have the same priorities they did at the start of the Syria conflict. The war in Yemen and the IS threat have taken precedence, he said.Simon Henderson, director of the Gulf and energy policy program at The Washington Institute, said the current Saudi leadership is still opposed to any scenario that gives Iran a strategic victory in Syria by leaving Assad or another strongman of his Alawite sect in power.But he said the new leadership in Saudi Arabia since the death of King Abdullah is shaking up old assumptions. Mohammed bin Salman, the powerful deputy crown prince, is “prepared to go outside the fences that were previously erected,” Henderson said.2015 The Associated Press.
Jewish terror state already upon us, ex security chief warns-Yuval Diskin says crackdown too little too late to stop ‘State of Judea,’ fed by rabbis no longer in control of their charges and years of weak efforts by Shin Bet-By Judah Ari Gross August 7, 2015, 9:06 pm 34
A former Israeli security head warned Friday that societal divides have led to the creation of a hard-line Jewish settler state alongside Israel, in a sharply worded missive capping a week of soul searching within the country following a terror attack apparently by Jewish terrorists.Yuval Diskin, a former head of the Shin Bet security service, warned that a rising right-wing and religious country is de facto coming into existence, dubbing it the “State of Judea,” using the biblical term for the southern West Bank, and describing efforts to staunch Jewish terror as too little too late.Judea is a “nation of Jewish law, of terror, of hatred against the other, or racism. Today, even the rabbis who gave birth to these delusional ideologies have become too moderate and soft in the eyes of some of their flock,” Diskin wrote.His comments, posted on Facebook late Friday afternoon, came as Israeli officials have vowed to crack down on Jewish extremists in the West Bank and elsewhere following the firebombing of Palestinian houses in the village of Duma last week that left an 18-month-old child dead and his parents and sibling critically injured.A day earlier, a religious extremist stabbed six people at a Jerusalem Gay Pride parade, killing a teen girl.Diskin said his agency never prioritized fighting Jewish terror.“Now and forever there has been a total lack of interest and a lack of will to tackle this issue at the political level,” he wrote.It has always been of greater interest, he added, to investigate Arab and other forms of terrorism. Those that do work to combat Jewish terrorism in the Shin Bet, he said, are often met with tough criticism by the religious community.Diskin listed several members of the Jewish department charged with fighting Jewish terror and other high-ranking religious officers in the Shin Bet service who have been harassed by right-wing activists and even by some “mainstream” Orthodox rabbis.Allegations of these sort have been bandied about for years, and discussed within the defense establishment itself, but for reasons of security and secrecy seldom discussed openly.Diskin, who has been rumored to be considering a political career since leaving the Shin Bet in 2011, is a frequent and scathing critic of the policies of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.His statement was noteworthy for not just warning that a Jewish religious state in the West Bank was in the offing, as is suggested whenever Israel gets close to a peace agreement with the Palestinians and the threat of an Israeli disengagement from the West Bank looms, but that, to all intents and purposes, it already exists.Recent years have seen an uptick in the severity of Jewish terrorism and “price tag” attacks — acts of vandalism and violence against Palestinians and other non-Jews.“In the ‘State of Judea’ there are different standards, different value systems, different approaches to democracy,” Diskin wrote, “and there are two legal systems. One that judges Jews (Israeli law) and one that judges Palestinians (martial law).”In the religious, right-wing Judea, he added, “the [law] enforcement against Jews is disturbingly weak.”The recent push to have the so-called “price tag” attacks be declared illegal was essentially too little too late, Diskin wrote.The central problem in this situation, he said, was the religious Zionist concept of “holiness of the land,” instead of “holiness of the people.”It means that believers will take whatever steps are necessary to defend the land, even at the expense of the people.“There is nothing more dangerous to the national security than that,” he said.

IDF strikes Hamas target in Gaza after rocket attack-Two injured in direct hit on Hamas facility in center of Strip; Salafi group affiliated with Islamic State claims responsibility for firing missile into Israel-By Times of Israel staff August 7, 2015, 9:19 pm 18
Israeli planes struck a Hamas military facility in the central Gaza Strip Friday night, hours after a rocket shot from the Palestinian enclave landed in Israel.The Hamas facility suffered a direct hit from the airstrike, the IDF Spokesman’s Unit said in a statement, adding that the army held Hamas responsible for any rocket attacks on Israeli territory.Gaza’s Hamas-run health ministry said two people were injured in the strike.Ministry spokesman Ashraf al-Qudra told AFP that one person was seriously hurt and the other moderately in the strike on a training facility of the Ezzedine al-Qassam Brigades, near El Bureij refugee camp in the centre of the strip.He did not identify the casualties.The Palestinian Ma’an news earlier reported that four people were hurt in the attack, which targeted the Nuseirat refugee camp.A Salafi terrorist organization affiliated with the Islamic State group had claimed responsibility for the rocket attack on Friday afternoon.The previously unheard of group, operating under the moniker “The Grandsons of the Companions of the Prophet,” said it fired the rocket, which landed in open territory north of the Kissufim crossing, in response to the Jewish state’s “attacks against the Al-Aqsa Mosque” in East Jerusalem.There were no immediate reports of injuries or damage in the attack.Two more rockets were also launched in the Friday afternoon volley, landing on the Gazan side, according to Hebrew media reports.“Since the beginning of August multiple rockets have been fired towards southern Israel, most falling short in the Gaza Strip. Israelis and Palestinians deserve to live normal lives but instead terrorists choose to use the Gaza Strip as a launch pad for rocket attacks. Hamas, must fulfill its responsibilities or face the consequences,” IDF spokesman Peter Lerner said in a statement.Army Radio quoted security officials as saying the rocket was probably made by poorly skilled technicians and launched by a terrorist group with capabilities inferior to those of Gaza-based Hamas, which rules the Strip.On Thursday night, two rockets were fired at Israel from the Gaza Strip falling short of the border and landing in the Palestinian enclave.Sporadic rocket fire over the past several months has frequently been attributed to struggles inside Gaza between Hamas and Salafist groups that oppose Hamas rule.The official policy of the Israel Defense Forces is to retaliate to attacks, maintaining that it holds Hamas responsible for all rocket fire from the Strip.Misfired rockets landing on the Gaza side of the fence do not generally elicit an Israeli response.On August 1, two rockets fell near the Israel-Gaza border fence. No warning sirens were heard and the military was initially unsure whether the projectiles struck the Israeli or Gazan side of the border.JTA and AFP contributed to this report

A Salafi terrorist organization affiliated with the Islamic State group claimed responsibility for a rocket attack from the Gaza Strip into Israel Friday afternoon.The group said it fired the rocket, which landed in open territory north of the Kissufim crossing with the Palestinian enclave in southern Israel, in response to the Jewish state’s “attacks against the Al-Aqsa Mosque” in East Jerusalem, according to AFP.There were no immediate reports of injuries or damage. IDF forces were scanning the area to locate the precise impact site.Two more rockets were also launched in the volley, landing on the Gazan side, according to Hebrew media reports.“A rocket fired from the Gaza Strip hit southern Israel,” a statement from the Israeli army said after the launch early Friday afternoon. “No injuries reported.”Army Radio quoted security officials as saying the rocket was probably made by poorly skilled technicians and launched by a terrorist group with capabilities inferior to those of Gaza-based Hamas, which rules the Strip.On Thursday night, two rockets were fired at Israel from the Gaza Strip falling short of the border and landing in the Palestinian enclave.

Hundreds rally for president after death threats-Reuven Rivlin tells press he is not afraid for his life, after some vow to harm him for voicing outrage over Jewish terror attacks-By Times of Israel staff August 7, 2015, 9:59 pm 2
Hundreds of people gathered Friday for a Sabbath prayer service outside the President’s Residence in Jerusalem to show support for President Reuven Rivlin, after he received intimidation threats online following his sharp criticism of Israeli society and its perceived tolerance for Jewish extremism.The president greeted the participants in the gathering, and thanked them for their efforts to spread a message of unity.“We have come together today, from different different schools of thought, all together, even if we sometimes have differences of opinion,” Rivlin said at the event.“Disagreements will always occur between us, but we all approach them wanting the best for each and every one of us, for the whole people. I am excited and moved by this meeting.”Rivlin has been especially outspoken after two hate-crime attacks toward the end of last week that saw 16-year-old Shira Banki stabbed to death at the Jerusalem Gay Price Parade last Thursday by an ultra-Orthodox man, and Palestinian toddler Ali Saad Dawabsha burned to death in the West Bank last Friday when alleged Jewish terrorists firebombed his family home.In condemning the attack of the Dawabsha family home in Duma and expressing shame that the suspected perpetrators are Jews, Rivlin raised the ire of right-wingers on social media who wished for his death and posted photos and videos casting him as a Nazi officer.The president spoke at an anti-violence rally in Jerusalem last Saturday, following the attacks, and warned that “flames of hatred” were consuming Israel and that Jewish extremists must be met head-on.In a series of interviews in the Hebrew press Friday to mark the one-year anniversary of his presidency, Rivlin said that the online attacks “could be insulting and angering” and that he was facing some “difficult days” with the deluge of hate targeting him, but that “on a personal level, I am not someone who will cancel plans because of personal danger, because I’m really not afraid.”‘Within this country, we tolerate the targeting of our citizens — those who are not Jews, [those who are] Arabs, Christians or Muslims. This may lead us to a situation where we can lose everything’During an interview with Channel 2, Rivlin implicitly criticized the silence of senior Israeli leaders in the face of harsh statements and threats against his life. “If they would say about someone that hates Israel, and I would think it is important to respond, I would get up and say so,” he said. “I would get up and say that while the person may be wrong, he does everything in his power for the State of Israel and for the Israeli people.”Rivlin’s security team lodged a complaint with police earlier in the week over the death threats. An investigation was also launched over a series of videos showing Rivlin — and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu — in SS uniforms.“We are in the middle of a great fracture,” Rivlin told Ynet Friday in reference to the tense public atmosphere following the spate of hate crimes. “Everything’s possible,” he added, when asked if he felt Israel could witness another political assassination.“Today there are those who hallucinate that a democratic and Jewish state is only democratic for the Jews,” he warned.“Terror is terror is terror, and it doesn’t matter what nationality that terror belongs to. There is a difficulty in combating the type of terror that is perpetrated by groups of radical Jews. It’s terror from within and it is difficult to bring these perpetrators to justice; we need to create tools in order to combat this style of terrorism,” added Rivlin.“Within this country, we tolerate the targeting of our citizens — those who are not Jews, [those who are] Arabs, Christians or Muslims. This may lead us to a situation where we can lose everything. We need to deal with this situation where children are killed, or where we allow the blood of others to be spilled, or where you have people who say ‘my religious beliefs command of me to burn, shatter and destroy.’ We must deal with terrorism as terrorism, whether it’s Arab terror or Jewish terror,” Rivlin told Walla News.
Ya’alon: Israel ‘not responsible’ for Iran nuke scientists’ lives-Defense minister hints assassinations may resume, says Israel considering air strikes against nuclear facilities-By Adiv Sterman August 7, 2015, 4:58 pm 218-the times of israel
Israel is not responsible for the lives of Iranian nuclear scientists, Defense Minister Moshe Ya’alon said in an interview published Friday, making a less-than-veiled threat that covert assassination missions blamed on Israel could resume.As the world moves closer to ratifying a nuclear deal that Jerusalem says won’t keep Iran from obtaining a nuclear arsenal, Ya’alon told German newspaper Der Spiegel that Israel would do anything necessary in order to assure Tehran does not get atomic weapons, including taking military action.“Ultimately it is very clear, one way or another, Iran’s military nuclear program must be stopped,” Ya’alon said, according to a retranslation from an interview published in the German daily. “We will act in any way and are not willing to tolerate a nuclear-armed Iran. We prefer that this be done by means of sanctions, but in the end, Israel should be able to defend itself,” the defense minister said.He added that he was “not responsible for the lives of Iranian scientists,” according to Der Spiegel, which will publish the full interview on Saturday.Ya’alon further stated that Israel was considering carrying out airstrikes on Iranian military facilities, the German paper reported.Five Iranian nuclear scientists were killed in the last decade, most of them by bombs placed on their cars, according to foreign media reports.Israel was blamed by Iran to be behind the assassinations, but never admitted any involvement.No Israeli was ever caught, though a number of Iranian were hanged after being accused of collaborating with Jerusalem.The last assassination occurred in late 2013 and have since halted, reportedly as a result of American pressure as negotiations between world powers and Tehran over the nuclear program ramped up, according to CBS news.On July 14, Iran and the United States, along with Britain, China, France, Germany and Russia, recently struck a deal meant to ensure Iran’s nuclear program could not produce a bomb by curbing enrichment in exchange for sanctions relief.Israel has loudly criticized the deal as unenforceable and limited in its ability to thwart Iran’s plans for nuclear weaponization, and is heavily lobbying American lawmakers to vote it down, butting heads with the White House along the way.The nuclear deal must be reviewed and approved by lawmakers in the US and Iran before it can be implemented. The deal has run into fierce opposition from many Republicans and some Democrats on Capitol Hill. Some Arab governments have quietly voiced concerns as well.US lawmakers will vote in September on whether to endorse the deal.US President Barack Obama has said voting down the deal will mean the US will be forced to confront Iran militarily to stop it from gaining a nuclear weapon.Though Israel has threatened to strike Iran to keep it from getting atomic arms, analysts say the Jewish state would need American help to effectively set back Iran’s nuclear program, an idea put on the backburner as diplomacy with Tehran has taken center stage.On Thursday, Iran dismissed as “preposterous” claims that it was cleaning up its suspected nuclear military site at Parchin ahead of inspections agreed under a nuclear deal with world powers. The statement came in response to media reports quoting US members of Congress and the Washington think-tank Institute for Science and International Security who said the work at the military complex, seen in satellite footage, could complicate inspections by the UN nuclear watchdog, the International Atomic Energy Agency, that are a key provision of the deal.Times of Israel staff contributed to this report.
Catholic Church files complaint against extreme right group leader-Bentzi Gopshtain, head of the Lehava, advocated burning mosques and churches at panel earlier this week-By Adiv Sterman August 8, 2015, 1:41 am 1-the times of israel
Leaders of the Catholic Church in Israel filed an incitement complaint against the head of an extreme right-wing group opposed to Jewish-Arab integration, who on Tuesday advocated the burning of mosques and churches in Israel at a public forum.The complaint against Lehava chairman Bentzi Gopshtain was filed in coordination with the Vatican, according to a Haaretz report Friday, and was formulated by a committee which included over 20 bishops and archbishops across Israel.Gopshtain’s remarks during a panel debating Jewish religious law came against the backdrop an arson incident at the Church of the Multiplication of the Loaves and Fishes on the shore of the Sea of Galilee in June. During the session, Benny Rabinovitch, a writer for the ultra-Orthodox paper Yated Ne’eman, asked Gopstein point blank whether he advocated the burning of churches, according to a recording of the debate published Wednesday by the ultra-Orthodox news site Kikar Hashabat.“Maimonides…” Gopshtain started, apparently alluding to the rulings of the 12th century Jewish sage, “you must burn [churches], are you against Maimonides or in favor of Maimonides?”“Don’t tell me about Maimonides, I asked you what you say,” Rabinovitch replied.“Of course I am,” Gopshtain said.Later in the panel conversation, Rabbi Moshe Klein, the head rabbi of Hadassah Hospitals, addressed Gopshtain, saying, “Benzi, just now they filmed and recorded you, and [if] that reaches the police you’ll be arrested.”“That’s the last thing that bothers me,” Gopshtain can be heard saying. “If that’s the truth then I’m prepared to sit 50 years in prison for it.”Gopshtain later responded to reports that he advocated burning churches by saying, “The law is straightforward, Maimonides’ interpretation is that one must burn idolatry. There’s not a single rabbi that would deliberate that fact. I expect the government of Israel to carry that out.”He told Kikar Hashabat, “I said that for speaking the truth, I am prepared to sit in prison. And I emphasized that I don’t burn and won’t go and burn churches.”Lehava opposes homosexuality and the assimilation of Jews, and activists regularly rally against personal or business relationships between Jews and non-Jews, including outside weddings between Jews and Arabs.In December, following the torching of a Jewish-Arab school in Jerusalem and his arrest on suspicion of inciting terrorism, Gopshtain said his organization does not act illegally and accused the Shin Bet security service of trying to frame Lehava to thwart its “holy work of saving the daughters of Israel.” In July, members of Lehava were convicted in the attack on the school.Earlier this week, an internal Shin Bet security service report concluded there was insufficient evidence to blacklist Lehava. The report came as a blow to Defense Minister Moshe Ya’alon’s efforts, with the security agency and legal experts, to build a case for banning the organization.“The conclusion at this stage is that there is insufficient evidence to declare the organization illegal,” the Shin Bet told Haaretz in a statement Tuesday. According to the report, the security agency said it would reconsider its assessment if new evidence against the nationalist group emerges.The Shin Bet’s report came out amid a crackdown on Jewish extremist groups following last week’s firebombing of a Palestinian home near Nablus, in which a year-old baby was killed and his parents and brother were critically wounded, and a stabbing attack by an ultra-Orthodox extremist at the Jerusalem Gay Pride Parade which left one dead and five others injured.Three extremists suspected of involvement in Jewish terrorist activity targeting Palestinians were placed under administrative detention — imprisonment without trial — in the wake of the attack near Nablus.Times of Israel Staff contributed to the report.

I have a Jewish daughter. This wasn’t in the plan, but I’m very glad it happened'-When it comes to Jewish ties, no GOP candidate trumps Trump-Presbyterian himself, Republican presidential hopeful’s daughter, two grandkids are Jewish; has been longtime supporter of Israel-By Uriel Heilman August 8, 2015, 3:09 am-the times of israel
NEW YORK (JTA) — Among the expansive field of Republican presidential candidates on display in the party’s first debates Thursday night, Donald Trump may be the most closely connected to the Jewish people.Trump is from New York, works in professions saturated with Jews and long has been a vocal supporter of Israel. His daughter and two grandchildren are Jewish, the executive vice president of his organization is Jewish — and Trump certainly has chutzpah.But if you expect to find Jewish donors of influence in Trump’s network of associates, you’ll be disappointed: The billionaire’s campaign is self-financed, not donor-funded. Forbes estimates Trump’s net worth at about $4 billion; Trump says he’s worth $10 billion.As the main attraction of the Republican debate, Trump’s trademark chutzpah was on sharp display. When asked about past references to women he dislikes as “fat pigs,” “slobs” and “disgusting animals,” Trump said he has no time for political correctness. He bragged about how Hillary Clinton dared not miss his most recent wedding because he donated to her campaign. And he refused to rule out running as a third-party candidate should someone else win the Republican nomination.Given his myriad Jewish associations, Trump is not an unfamiliar face in Jewish circles. He has served as a grand marshal at New York’s annual Salute to Israel Parade. After Hurricane Katrina, he was among a group of celebrities who decorated Jewish federation tzedakah boxes to be auctioned off to support hurricane disaster relief. And in February, he was honored with an award at the annual gala for the Algemeiner, a right-wing Jewish news organization.“I have a Jewish daughter. This wasn’t in the plan, but I’m very glad it happened,” Trump said at the event, held in Manhattan. On Israel, he said, “We love Israel. We will fight for Israel 100 percent, 1,000 percent. It will be there forever.”Before the 2013 Israeli election, Trump recorded a video message endorsing Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.“You truly have a great prime minister in Benjamin Netanyahu. He’s a winner, he’s highly respected, he’s highly thought of by all,” Trump said in the 30-second spot. “Vote for Benjamin – terrific guy, terrific leader, great for Israel.”By the same token, Trump has made clear he believes President Barack Obama is bad for Israel and has questioned how American Jews could support the president.“I have many Jewish friends that support Obama and I say, ‘Why?’ and they can’t explain why. They support him, they give him money, they give him campaign contributions,” Trump told radio host Michael Savage in February. “This is the worst enemy of Israel.”Trump at times has dabbled in Israeli real estate. About a decade ago, he bought a site in the Tel Aviv metropolitan area with plans to build Israel’s tallest building, to be called Trump Plaza Tower. He later sold the Ramat Gan property to an Israeli firm before its development. In 2012, Trump met with Israel’s tourism minister to discuss possible investments in real estate and tourism, according to the Israeli news website Ynet.Trump’s closest Jewish association is with his daughter Ivanka’s family. Ivanka Trump, a fashion designer and celebrity in her own right, converted to Judaism before marrying Jared Kushner, the son of New York Jewish real estate mogul Charles Kushner.She studied for her Orthodox conversion with Rabbi Haskel Lookstein of Manhattan’s Kehilath Jeshurun synagogue and the Ramaz School, and Lookstein officiated at her wedding. Trump and Kushner are members of Lookstein’s Orthodox synagogue and are Shabbat observant. They have two children.Donald Trump is Presbyterian. He has said he goes to church on Christmas, Easter and special occasions.When it comes to The Trump Organization, Trump’s right-hand man is a Jewish lawyer, Michael Cohen, who also serves as a top campaign aide. Cohen ignited controversy last week by suggesting that spousal rape doesn’t count as rape. He later apologized, saying his remarks were “inarticulate.”Trump, of course, doesn’t shy away from controversy himself. Just since announcing his candidacy in June, he has called illegal Mexican immigrants rapists, disparaged Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), for getting captured in the Vietnam War and publicly disclosed Sen. Lindsey Graham’s private mobile phone number at a campaign rally.On Israel, he said, ‘We love Israel. We will fight for Israel 100 percent, 1,000 percent. It will be there forever’Then there was Thursday night’s Republican debate. Following his verbal fireworks on stage, he doubled down on Twitter, saying, “I really enjoyed the debate tonight even though the @FoxNews trio, especially @megynkelly, was not very good or professional!” He was apparently referring to Kelly’s question about Trump’s comments on women.Trump’s record suggests he’s far from a Republican ideologue. He has given money both to Democratic and Republican candidates, including Republican primary rivals and Hillary Clinton, the likely Democratic nominee for president. Trump at varying times has supported liberal policies like abortion rights as well as Tea Party causes like strict immigration restrictions. In the debate, he stood by his past support for single-payer health care, saying that he thought it worked well in Canada and could have worked in the past in the United States.Overall, Trump doesn’t appear to have very many fixed policy positions. Unlike the other Republican candidates, he has no policy section on his campaign website.When Ivanka Trump introduced her father at the Algemeiner dinner six months ago, she said, “He has used his voice often and loudly in support of Israel, in support of developments within Israel, in support of security for Israel and in support of the idea of the Israeli democracy.”One thing is certain of Donald Trump: As long as he stays in this campaign, he will continue to use his voice often and loudly.

GOP donors wanted Bush, Rubio, and Walker to boycott debates unless Trump was disqualified-posted at 12:41 pm on July 23, 2015 by Allahpundit-hotair
So, so dumb, but that’s our donor class for you.Many national Republican officials are increasingly resigned to Mr. Trump’s looming presence. At a meeting of the Republican Governors Association this week in Aspen, Colo., donors and operatives mused about how to prevent him from hijacking the debate.One idea that came up was to urge three leading candidates — Jeb Bush, the former Florida governor; Mr. Walker; and Senator Marco Rubio of Florida — to band together and state that they would not participate in any debate in which Mr. Trump was present, using his refusal to rule out a third-party bid as a pretext for taking such a hard line. The thinking, according to a Republican involved in the conversations, was that the lesser-funded prospects who have been eclipsed by Mr. Trump would follow suit, and the TV networks airing the debates would be forced to bar Mr. Trump in order to have a full complement of candidates.But none of the campaigns have shown any appetite for such solidarity, for reasons ranging fromtheir strategic interests and not wanting to make Mr. Trump a martyr, to fear of making an enemy of Fox News, the preferred cable network of conservatives and the host of the first debate.You already know the main reason this is stupid. Let me add another: Bush, Walker, and Rubio can each argue, somewhat credibly, that having Trump in the race is good for them. For Jeb, he’s a big-name foil, a guy whom Bush can use to underscore his own comparative moderation and electability. There may be nothing worse to many “somewhat conservative” voters than nominating a Bush … unless the alternative is nominating Donald Trump. For Walker, what could be sweeter than having Trump around throwing roundhouses at Bush for being a RINO and a loser? He’s making the same bet that Ted Cruz is, that Trumpmania will cool once Republican voters start to get serious about picking a candidate. And Walker’s well positioned to pick up Trump voters (and “anyone but Jeb” voters) thanks to his newfound hawkishness about the border. As long as Trump doesn’t hang around the race too long, denying Walker the anti-Bush votes he needs in the early states, he’s pure upside. As for Rubio, he’s pitching himself to righties as the party’s best chance to cut into Hillary’s domination of the Latino vote. The more Trump grumbles about Mexican rapists, the more desperate some undecideds will become to heal that rift with Hispanics before the general election. Rubio, thanks to his Gang of Eight pedigree and his Cuban heritage, may be the closest thing the GOP has to a “magic bullet.” And the more damage Trumpzilla does over the next six to nine months, the more compelling that case for Rubio becomes. So why would any of these guys want to drive Trump off the stage? Especially when he’s already hinting about going third-party if he feels insulted?Actually, there’s a third reason why the boycott idea is dumb: Why would anyone assume that the also-rans in the race would follow the lead of Bush, Walker, and Rubio by boycotting? They’d love to have those guys off the stage. Instead of being relegated to the JV debate at 5 p.m. on August 6th, they’d end up as part of the main show with a gigantic audience thanks to Trump. They could stand there and say, not unpersuasively, that any man who’s afraid to debate Donald Trump has no business negotiating for the United States against Vladimir Putin. If I were an advisor for Chris Christie or Bobby Jindal, I’d be salivating at the thought that Team Jeb might conceivably be so stupid as to cede them the spotlight that way. The only candidate who’s polling badly for whom this might present a dilemma is Rick Perry. Given what he said yesterday, he’d have to at least entertain the idea that Trump’s presence in a debate delegitimizes it to the point where it’s not worth participating in it. But even Perry, I think, would seize the opportunity and show up. After all, he’s the guy who’s trying to make his mark by confronting “Trumpism” directly. Why would he pass on a chance to impress Republican voters by confronting Trump himself face to face? Via the Daily Caller, here’s the Glenn Beck Show yesterday declaring itself a Trump-free zone. I’ll leave you with two quotations to chew on. The first comes from RCP: “[Rick Perry] said he has confidence that the Fox News debate’s moderators—Chris Wallace, Megyn Kelly and Bret Baier—will be able to rein in the loquacious business magnate and keep him from stealing the show.” And the second comes from … Bret Baier: “I’d be lying to you if I didn’t say that I have woken up in cold sweats wondering how I’m going to deal with a Donald Trump who’s not listening,”

DONALD TRUMP SEEMS TO HAVE SAID MEGYN KELLY WAS ON HER PERIOD AT THE DEBATE THE OTHER NIGHT. THATS WHY SHE LAYED INTO HIM ABOUT THE WOMAN COMMENTS HE SAID TO ROSEY O'DONELL.

18 And if a man shall lie with a woman having her sickness, and shall uncover her nakedness; he hath discovered her fountain, and she hath uncovered the fountain of her blood: and both of them shall be cut off from among their people.
LEVITICUS 18:19
19 Also thou shalt not approach unto a woman to uncover her nakedness, as long as she is put apart for her uncleanness.
LEVITICUS 15:19-30
19 And if a woman have an issue, and her issue in her flesh be blood, she shall be put apart seven days: and whosoever toucheth her shall be unclean until the even.
20 And every thing that she lieth upon in her separation shall be unclean: every thing also that she sitteth upon shall be unclean.
21 And whosoever toucheth her bed shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the even.
22 And whosoever toucheth any thing that she sat upon shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the even.
23 And if it be on her bed, or on any thing whereon she sitteth, when he toucheth it, he shall be unclean until the even.
24 And if any man lie with her at all, and her flowers be upon him, he shall be unclean seven days; and all the bed whereon he lieth shall be unclean.
25 And if a woman have an issue of her blood many days out of the time of her separation, or if it run beyond the time of her separation; all the days of the issue of her uncleanness shall be as the days of her separation: she shall be unclean.
26 Every bed whereon she lieth all the days of her issue shall be unto her as the bed of her separation: and whatsoever she sitteth upon shall be unclean, as the uncleanness of her separation.
27 And whosoever toucheth those things shall be unclean, and shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the even.
28 But if she be cleansed of her issue, then she shall number to herself seven days, and after that she shall be clean.
29 And on the eighth day she shall take unto her two turtles, or two young pigeons, and bring them unto the priest, to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
30 And the priest shall offer the one for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering; and the priest shall make an atonement for her before the LORD for the issue of her uncleanness.

Why Donald Trump was banned from RedState event in Atlanta-August 8, 2015-ATLANTA JOURNAL CONSTITUTION
Donald Trump is not coming to Atlanta this weekend after all.The organizer of the RedState Gathering has rescinded the Republican presidential candidate’s invitation to speak at a Saturday evening rally at the College Football Hall of Fame. Erick Erickson said the billionaire’s comments about Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly were “a bridge too far.” Trump told CNN on Friday that “you could see there was blood coming out of her eyes. Blood coming out of her wherever” as she questioned him during Thursday’s Republican presidential debate. Here’s precisely what Trump said:Erickson took issue with Trump’s comments — particularly the “wherever” part — in a post to his blog overnight. A taste:“[W]hile Mr. Trump resonates with a lot of people with his bluntness, including me to a degree, there are just real lines of decency a person running for President should not cross.“His comment was inappropriate. It is unfortunate to have to disinvite him. But I just don’t want someone on stage who gets a hostile question from a lady and his first inclination is to imply it was hormonal. It just was wrong.”Erickson elaborated on Saturday morning, telling the event’s hundreds of attendees that he thought it was “weak and pathetic to take a tough question from a journalist and assume she’s on her period and that’s why she asked a tough question.”“I have said some really unfortunate things in my life, and I’ve apologized for them. It is not political correctness, it’s common decency,” said Erickson, an occasional, paid analyst for Fox News. “If you don’t have a little voice in your head saying, ‘No you actually screwed up,’ it’s going to end badly for you.”He added: “I don’t want Donald Trump in the room with my daughter tonight so that’s why he was disinvited.”In an interview with The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Erickson said he called and emailed the Trump campaign late Friday night in search of clarification or an apology. Neither came.“They were immediately hostile and refused to even admit he said it,” Erickson said. Trump on Saturday took to Twitter to defend himself and said the “wherever” part of his comments to CNN referred to Kelly’s “nose.”Erickson isn’t buying it.“Yeah, whatever,” he said. “Last night they weren’t even willing to do that. I’m sorry if it takes you that long to come up with that response, you’re not going to be elected president.”As Erickson mentioned above, he is no stranger to provocative remarks. In 2013, he repeatedly referred to Texas state Sen. Wendy Davis as “Abortion Barbie.” That earned him the ire of another Fox News host: Greta Van Susteren, who called Erickson a “jerk” and a “repeat offender.” But on Saturday, Erickson said what Trump said about Kelly was much worse than what he said about Davis.“Oh yeah, I think it’s fundamentally worse,” he said. “Wendy Davis’ profile in Vogue was about her pink shoes and good looks. They were trying to use that until it became a negative connotation. All Megyn Kelly did was ask a tough question.”A Trump campaign spokesperson quickly fired back at Erickson via email:“This is just another example of weakness through being politically correct. For all of the people who were looking forward to Mr. Trump coming, we will miss you. Blame Erick Erickson, your weak and pathetic leader. We’ll now be doing another campaign stop at another location.”As other GOP candidates seized on his CNN comments – businesswoman Carly Fiorina tweeted “Mr. Trump: There. Is. No. Excuse.” – Trump said this morning his quote was misinterpreted.He later blamed political correctness – a common trope in his campaign – for Erickson’s decision. From a Trump campaign statement:“Not only is Erick a total loser, he has a history of supporting establishment losers in failed campaigns so it is an honor to be uninvited from his event. Mr. Trump is an outsider and does not fit his agenda. Many of the 900 people that wanted to hear Mr. Trump speak tonight have been calling and emailing — they are very angry at Erickson and the others that are trying to be so politically correct. To them Mr. Trump says, “We will catch you at another time soon.”At the RedState event on Saturday morning, bleary-eyed attendees awoke to surprise at the news that Trump would no longer attend.Among them was Michael Pemberton, a 66-year-old retiree from Kentucky who scrawled “I AM DONALD TRUMP” on the back of a question card and tacked it to his lapel when he learned the news.Pemberton said there was nothing misogynistic about Trump’s comments, and blamed analysts for “over-interpreting” the remarks.“He has a right to speak,” said Pemberton, who said he won’t return to RedState next year. “You have every right to be offended. I wish to listen to all these people, giving them a fair hearing and deciding on your own.”Others were more supportive. Bill Hood of Canton called it “absolutely the right decision,” while Ginger Howard of Atlanta said Trump traipsed over a “line you don’t cross.”“He has said some things we glossed over, but if you want to be the president of the United States there are some things you just don’t say,” said Howard.Scott Johnson of Marietta, however, fears that Erickson’s decision may have a surprising consequence. “He should have to come and answer for what he said,” Johnson said of Trump. “I’m afraid it’s things like this that will make him make a third party run.”

The one reason Donald Trump was the clear winner of the first GOP debate-By Eugene Robinson Opinion writer August 7 at 12:36 PM
CLEVELAND-It was billed as The Donald Trump Show, and the Republican front-runner delivered. He mugged. He pouted. He projected outrage without being troubled by specificity or fact. When he got punched — and the moderators threw haymakers all night — he stuck out his chin and punched back.Eugene Robinson writes a twice-a-week column on politics and culture, contributes to the PostPartisan blog, and hosts a weekly online chat with readers. In a three-decade career at The Post, Robinson has been city hall reporter, city editor, foreign correspondent in Buenos Aires and London, foreign editor, and assistant managing editor in charge of the paper’s Style section. View ArchiveTrump made it through the first Republican debate by avoiding the one mistake that could have seriously damaged his insurgent campaign: sounding like a professional politician. For that reason alone, he seemed to me the clear winner.I watched the debate at the House of Blues in downtown Cleveland with a crowd of true-believer conservatives at a viewing party sponsored by the American Conservative Union. It might not have been a representative sample of Republican primary voters, and I should note that there was an open bar. So my observations should not be confused with actual political science.That said, it was fascinating that Trump got the loudest cheers, by far, from the beginning of the debate until about three-fourths of the way through, when either exhaustion or the bar began to take a toll and the crowd’s attention seemed to wander.Anyone who thought the Fox News moderators might go easy on the GOP field, or at least its leader, was mistaken. Yet when Bret Baier maneuvered Trump into acknowledging that he might run in the general election as an independent, there were oohs and aahs — but no catcalls. When Megyn Kelly pressed him on the crude and hurtful things he has said about women, Trump’s shrug — “What I say is what I say” — got a laugh, and his attack on “political correctness” drew applause. When Chris Wallace burrowed in on his four corporate bankruptcies, Trump’s explanation that he was just playing by the rules went over just fine.One particularly telling moment, I thought, came when Trump was asked about his previous support of Democrats, including likely nominee Hillary Clinton. The gist of Trump’s answer was this: Hey, I gave lots of money to politicians of both parties because that’s what rich and powerful people do, and in exchange they get access and influence. It’s a rotten system but that’s the way it works, and let’s not pretend otherwise.I think that exchange might help befuddled politicians and pundits understand the Trump insurrection. That is how the system works. For voters who feel powerless and marginalized, I believe it is refreshing and perhaps liberating to hear an insider talk honestly about the role big money plays in politics.Will Trump’s poll numbers continue to rise? I have no idea. But I think the GOP establishment is whistling past the graveyard if it thinks the Trump bubble has burst.It was impossible this week to walk anywhere in this lakeside city’s revivifying downtown without bumping into members of the Republican Party’s political elite, and conversations with them suggested a kind of magical thinking: Somehow, they assume, this whole Trump thing will go poof and disappear. Order will be restored to the GOP universe.That may come to pass. But I’m pretty sure it didn’t happen Thursday night.Oh yes, there were nine other men on that stage at Quicken Loans Arena. The consensus here seemed to be that Ohio Gov. John Kasich, who just squeaked into the prime-time debate, had a good evening and should continue his rise in the polls. There was also a lot of buzz about Sen. Marco Rubio (Fla.), who some saw as smooth and almost Obama-esque in a hopey-changey kind of way.Jeb Bush, by my reckoning, had a fair-to-middling night. I felt no passion from the House of Blues crowd for anything he said. If he ends up being the nominee, it will be because the party falls in line, not in love.The political cognoscenti seem to think that neurosurgeon Ben Carson had a terrible evening. I wouldn’t be surprised if his poll numbers went up. Just a hunch, but he came across as genuine and charming.As for the “kiddie table” debate held earlier Thursday, the conventional wisdom is right: Businesswoman Carly Fiorina was the star and should at least vault into the top 10. I think she’s wrong about most everything, but she’s sharp as a tack.The GOP race is full of excitement. There’s one problem: On most issues, from women’s health to national security, the party is far out of step with the general electorate. Keep that in mind as this political version of “Game of Thrones” continues to unfold.Read more from Eugene Robinson’s archive, follow him on Twitter or subscribe to his updates on Facebook.

US Jewish leader denies report he criticized Netanyahu-Malcolm Hoenlein says PM has right, obligation to speak out against nuke deal but notes ‘discomfort’ in American-Jewish community with aggressive tone-By JTA and Times of Israel staff August 7, 2015, 8:42 am 5
NEW YORK — Malcolm Hoenlein, executive vice chairman of the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations, denied reports saying he had criticized Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for urging American Jews to fight the Iran deal.In an interview Thursday with JTA, Hoenlein said the reports “could not be more inaccurate.”Hoenlein offered his criticism in a meeting Thursday with several Israeli reporters.“I think that Israeli officials should make the case on the content and the substance of the Iran deal and we will do a good job translating it into activity,” Hoenlein was quoted as saying. “I acknowledge that there is discomfort [in the American Jewish community]… The Israeli government should not be telling US Jews what they should do vis-Ã -vis their government.”Hoenlein told JTA that while noting he said in general “we don’t believe Israelis should interfere in American politics or that Americans should interfere with Israeli politics,” he also said, as reported in The Times of Israel: “I think Netanyahu has the right to say to American Jews, you have to understand the seriousness of this issue. He has the right, and by his assessment and everything we know, maybe the obligation to reach out.”Hoenlein shares Netanyahu’s opposition to the deal.
US probing if Iranian violated UN sanctions with Russia trip-Russia and Iran decline commenting on whether Quds Force commander made journey to Moscow in violation of travel ban-By Edith M. Lederer August 8, 2015, 12:36 am 1-the times of israel
UNITED NATIONS (AP) — The United States is trying to determine whether the commander of the elite Quds Force in Iran’s Revolutionary Guard recently visited Russia in violation of a United Nations travel ban, US Ambassador Samantha Power said Friday.Power said the travel ban requires all countries deny Maj. Gen. Qassem Soleimani entry into their borders, and the only exception is if the Security Council committee monitoring sanctions against Iran grants an exemption.“To our knowledge no such exemption was granted, and we would know,” Power told reporters Friday. “So these are very concerning reports but we are still, again, tracking down the facts.”Soleimaini has been on the UN sanctions blacklist since 2007, which also requires that all countries freeze his overseas assets.Fox News, citing two Western intelligence sources, reported Thursday that Soleimani arrived in Moscow on July 24 for meetings with Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu and President Vladimir Putin.Spokesmen for Iran’s UN Mission and Russia’s UN Mission both said they had no immediate comment.In June, the UN panel of experts monitoring sanctions against Iran cited media reports and published several photos of Soleimani showing that he traveled to Iraq, Syria and Lebanon — although no country had reported a violation of the travel ban.Soleimani “was reportedly organizing and training militia and regular forces in those countries,” the panel said. He was also shown on a magazine cover as a commander fighting the Islamic State group in Iraq, it said.Iran says the Quds force has played a key role in rolling back the Islamic State group, which now controls about a third of Iraq and Syria. The effort has been led by Soleimani, but Tehran insists its officers are only providing military advice and training.In the years following the 2003 US-led invasion of Iraq, American commanders repeatedly accused the Quds Force of backing Shiite militias implicated in attacks on American troops and Sunni civilians, charges denied by Tehran.2015 The Associated Press.

Iran nuclear deal opens diplomatic channels for Syria-New efforts suggest world powers more willing to engage in talks with Bashar Assad’s Tehran-backed regime-By Zeina Karam and Adam Schreck August 8, 2015, 1:12 am-the times of israel
BEIRUT (AP) — The nuclear deal with Iran was widely expected to affect other Middle East issues, and that may already be happening with Syria. A series of recent diplomatic maneuvers suggest a growing willingness to at least engage with the Iranian-backed government of Bashar Assad on ways to end the country’s civil war.The embattled leader seems no more inclined to step aside now than he did four years ago, and any agreement still looks to be far off — but the search seems to be on for an elegant solution that might, for example, allow him a transitional role. In part, it is also driven by the new leadership team in Saudi Arabia, which emerged with the accession to the throne of King Salman in January.Another factor is the emergence and spread of the violent and fanatical Islamic State group as the most potent opposition to Assad, far more so than the relatively moderate rebels who won a measure of world support after the conflict began four years ago. Despite his government’s brutality and aerial bombardment that has leveled some opposition-held areas, the 50-year-old former eye doctor now seems, at least to some, comparatively more palatable.The civil war has killed at least 250,000, displaced half the population, flooded brittle neighboring countries with refugees and has left jihadis occupying not only much of Syria but also perhaps a third of Iraq.Among the developments of recent days:— In the wake of mediation by Assad’s Russian patrons, a quiet, ice-breaking meeting took place in Riyadh in late July between Brig. Gen. Ali Mamlouk, the head of Syria’s powerful National Security Bureau, and Prince Mohammad Bin Salman, Saudi Arabia’s deputy crown prince and defense minister. That represented a significant shift and an opening of channels between two countries that have become arch foes in Syria’s conflict. Saudi Arabia along with other Gulf states has been a key backer of rebels fighting to topple Assad.— Syrian Foreign Minister Walid Moallem flew Thursday to Oman after a two-day visit to Tehran, amid unconfirmed reports in pro-Assad media outlets that the Omani government was trying to broker a meeting of the foreign ministers of Syria, Iran and Saudi Arabia.— Iran has said it is preparing to submit a four-point peace plan proposal for Syria to the United Nations. According to some reports, it includes a “national unity government.” That is code for allowing Assad a face-saving period in which he shares power — and elections under international supervision. But it would also bring some prominence to the otherwise marginalized relative moderates who have failed to dislodge Assad militarily.Although few will say so in public, there is an increasing, if grudging, acceptance that such a compromise may in the end be essential.Assad’s enormous territorial losses may be pushing him to explore diplomatic options to resolve the crisis. But he is unlikely to fully step aside, and if anything, he may be more inclined to cling to power in the hope that an Iran freed of economic sanctions would support him all the more with funds for his battered army.Dubai-based geopolitical analyst Theodore Karasik said the Iran nuclear deal, which was struck last month between Tehran and six world powers, has “opened the door to realignments and fixing geopolitical problems.”“It seems to me that all regional and international players are rushing around trying to establish a new order in the wake of the Iran deal, and it’s going to continue,” he said. “We’re seeing a huge uptick in shuttle diplomacy by all sides.”This week, US Secretary of State John Kerry, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov and Saudi Foreign Minister Adel al-Jubeir held a rare three-way meeting Monday in the Qatari capital, Doha. The session included discussions about the Syrian crisis.Lavrov also met Mouaz al-Khatib, a former president of the Syrian National Coalition opposition group whose name is often mentioned as a possible transitional figure, during his Qatar trip.Russia, a key backer of Assad’s government, is seeking to assemble an anti-terror front that would include the Syrian army, the Iraqi army and the Kurds, Lavrov said this week.Russia in particular seems to be acting as a negotiator on the Syrian question and wants to be a partner in the fight against IS, Karasik said. It also sees itself as the main player brokering new relations between the Arabs and Tehran, he said.“In the wake of the Iran deal, there are new opportunities to settle regional differences, and Russia is trying to fulfil what it sees is its historical mission to bring all sides together,” he said.Moscow also has a longstanding relationship with Iran.Italian Foreign Minister Paolo Gentiloni met al-Jubeir in Rome on Friday and told a news conference afterward that Iran can contribute to a solution to the Syrian crisis. Al-Jubeir was cool to the idea, saying “Iran has been part and parcel of the murder of the Syrian people, and therefore we believe it should have no role” in Syria’s future.The shape of any political settlement in Syria remains unclear.The US would find it extremely awkward to formally back any plan that would legitimize the Syrian government. Kerry reiterated Washington’s position in Doha, saying that “Assad and the Assad regime long ago lost legitimacy,” even as he again called for a political solution to the crisis.Iran is unlikely to drop its support for Assad even if its nuclear deal presents the prospect of a diplomatic opening with the West. Kerry said in Doha that while he hopes there can be “a turning of the page” with Iran on various regional issues, so far a diplomatic option hasn’t presented itself on Syria.Assad still has a firm grip on core areas key to his survival, even though he has lost perhaps more than half the country to hundreds of rebel groups and Islamic extremists. In a speech last month — his first public address in a year — he acknowledged his troops had lost territory and were running short on manpower, but he vowed to win the war, making clear he would fight to the end.“Despite the military defeats, politically the Syrian regime has become more viable because of the lack of alternative,” said Ayham Kamel, director of Middle East and North Africa with the Eurasia group in London.Furthermore, he said the Gulf states no longer have the same priorities they did at the start of the Syria conflict. The war in Yemen and the IS threat have taken precedence, he said.Simon Henderson, director of the Gulf and energy policy program at The Washington Institute, said the current Saudi leadership is still opposed to any scenario that gives Iran a strategic victory in Syria by leaving Assad or another strongman of his Alawite sect in power.But he said the new leadership in Saudi Arabia since the death of King Abdullah is shaking up old assumptions. Mohammed bin Salman, the powerful deputy crown prince, is “prepared to go outside the fences that were previously erected,” Henderson said.2015 The Associated Press.
Jewish terror state already upon us, ex security chief warns-Yuval Diskin says crackdown too little too late to stop ‘State of Judea,’ fed by rabbis no longer in control of their charges and years of weak efforts by Shin Bet-By Judah Ari Gross August 7, 2015, 9:06 pm 34
A former Israeli security head warned Friday that societal divides have led to the creation of a hard-line Jewish settler state alongside Israel, in a sharply worded missive capping a week of soul searching within the country following a terror attack apparently by Jewish terrorists.Yuval Diskin, a former head of the Shin Bet security service, warned that a rising right-wing and religious country is de facto coming into existence, dubbing it the “State of Judea,” using the biblical term for the southern West Bank, and describing efforts to staunch Jewish terror as too little too late.Judea is a “nation of Jewish law, of terror, of hatred against the other, or racism. Today, even the rabbis who gave birth to these delusional ideologies have become too moderate and soft in the eyes of some of their flock,” Diskin wrote.His comments, posted on Facebook late Friday afternoon, came as Israeli officials have vowed to crack down on Jewish extremists in the West Bank and elsewhere following the firebombing of Palestinian houses in the village of Duma last week that left an 18-month-old child dead and his parents and sibling critically injured.A day earlier, a religious extremist stabbed six people at a Jerusalem Gay Pride parade, killing a teen girl.Diskin said his agency never prioritized fighting Jewish terror.“Now and forever there has been a total lack of interest and a lack of will to tackle this issue at the political level,” he wrote.It has always been of greater interest, he added, to investigate Arab and other forms of terrorism. Those that do work to combat Jewish terrorism in the Shin Bet, he said, are often met with tough criticism by the religious community.Diskin listed several members of the Jewish department charged with fighting Jewish terror and other high-ranking religious officers in the Shin Bet service who have been harassed by right-wing activists and even by some “mainstream” Orthodox rabbis.Allegations of these sort have been bandied about for years, and discussed within the defense establishment itself, but for reasons of security and secrecy seldom discussed openly.Diskin, who has been rumored to be considering a political career since leaving the Shin Bet in 2011, is a frequent and scathing critic of the policies of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.His statement was noteworthy for not just warning that a Jewish religious state in the West Bank was in the offing, as is suggested whenever Israel gets close to a peace agreement with the Palestinians and the threat of an Israeli disengagement from the West Bank looms, but that, to all intents and purposes, it already exists.Recent years have seen an uptick in the severity of Jewish terrorism and “price tag” attacks — acts of vandalism and violence against Palestinians and other non-Jews.“In the ‘State of Judea’ there are different standards, different value systems, different approaches to democracy,” Diskin wrote, “and there are two legal systems. One that judges Jews (Israeli law) and one that judges Palestinians (martial law).”In the religious, right-wing Judea, he added, “the [law] enforcement against Jews is disturbingly weak.”The recent push to have the so-called “price tag” attacks be declared illegal was essentially too little too late, Diskin wrote.The central problem in this situation, he said, was the religious Zionist concept of “holiness of the land,” instead of “holiness of the people.”It means that believers will take whatever steps are necessary to defend the land, even at the expense of the people.“There is nothing more dangerous to the national security than that,” he said.

IDF strikes Hamas target in Gaza after rocket attack-Two injured in direct hit on Hamas facility in center of Strip; Salafi group affiliated with Islamic State claims responsibility for firing missile into Israel-By Times of Israel staff August 7, 2015, 9:19 pm 18
Israeli planes struck a Hamas military facility in the central Gaza Strip Friday night, hours after a rocket shot from the Palestinian enclave landed in Israel.The Hamas facility suffered a direct hit from the airstrike, the IDF Spokesman’s Unit said in a statement, adding that the army held Hamas responsible for any rocket attacks on Israeli territory.Gaza’s Hamas-run health ministry said two people were injured in the strike.Ministry spokesman Ashraf al-Qudra told AFP that one person was seriously hurt and the other moderately in the strike on a training facility of the Ezzedine al-Qassam Brigades, near El Bureij refugee camp in the centre of the strip.He did not identify the casualties.The Palestinian Ma’an news earlier reported that four people were hurt in the attack, which targeted the Nuseirat refugee camp.A Salafi terrorist organization affiliated with the Islamic State group had claimed responsibility for the rocket attack on Friday afternoon.The previously unheard of group, operating under the moniker “The Grandsons of the Companions of the Prophet,” said it fired the rocket, which landed in open territory north of the Kissufim crossing, in response to the Jewish state’s “attacks against the Al-Aqsa Mosque” in East Jerusalem.There were no immediate reports of injuries or damage in the attack.Two more rockets were also launched in the Friday afternoon volley, landing on the Gazan side, according to Hebrew media reports.“Since the beginning of August multiple rockets have been fired towards southern Israel, most falling short in the Gaza Strip. Israelis and Palestinians deserve to live normal lives but instead terrorists choose to use the Gaza Strip as a launch pad for rocket attacks. Hamas, must fulfill its responsibilities or face the consequences,” IDF spokesman Peter Lerner said in a statement.Army Radio quoted security officials as saying the rocket was probably made by poorly skilled technicians and launched by a terrorist group with capabilities inferior to those of Gaza-based Hamas, which rules the Strip.On Thursday night, two rockets were fired at Israel from the Gaza Strip falling short of the border and landing in the Palestinian enclave.Sporadic rocket fire over the past several months has frequently been attributed to struggles inside Gaza between Hamas and Salafist groups that oppose Hamas rule.The official policy of the Israel Defense Forces is to retaliate to attacks, maintaining that it holds Hamas responsible for all rocket fire from the Strip.Misfired rockets landing on the Gaza side of the fence do not generally elicit an Israeli response.On August 1, two rockets fell near the Israel-Gaza border fence. No warning sirens were heard and the military was initially unsure whether the projectiles struck the Israeli or Gazan side of the border.JTA and AFP contributed to this report
Salafists claim rocket attack on Israel’s south-Projectile landed near border fence with Gaza Strip, two more missiles said to fall short; IDF scouring area for impact site-By Times of Israel staff August 7, 2015, 8:32 pm 2
A Salafi terrorist organization affiliated with the Islamic State group claimed responsibility for a rocket attack from the Gaza Strip into Israel Friday afternoon.The group said it fired the rocket, which landed in open territory north of the Kissufim crossing with the Palestinian enclave in southern Israel, in response to the Jewish state’s “attacks against the Al-Aqsa Mosque” in East Jerusalem, according to AFP.There were no immediate reports of injuries or damage. IDF forces were scanning the area to locate the precise impact site.Two more rockets were also launched in the volley, landing on the Gazan side, according to Hebrew media reports.“A rocket fired from the Gaza Strip hit southern Israel,” a statement from the Israeli army said after the launch early Friday afternoon. “No injuries reported.”Army Radio quoted security officials as saying the rocket was probably made by poorly skilled technicians and launched by a terrorist group with capabilities inferior to those of Gaza-based Hamas, which rules the Strip.On Thursday night, two rockets were fired at Israel from the Gaza Strip falling short of the border and landing in the Palestinian enclave.

Hundreds rally for president after death threats-Reuven Rivlin tells press he is not afraid for his life, after some vow to harm him for voicing outrage over Jewish terror attacks-By Times of Israel staff August 7, 2015, 9:59 pm 2
Hundreds of people gathered Friday for a Sabbath prayer service outside the President’s Residence in Jerusalem to show support for President Reuven Rivlin, after he received intimidation threats online following his sharp criticism of Israeli society and its perceived tolerance for Jewish extremism.The president greeted the participants in the gathering, and thanked them for their efforts to spread a message of unity.“We have come together today, from different different schools of thought, all together, even if we sometimes have differences of opinion,” Rivlin said at the event.“Disagreements will always occur between us, but we all approach them wanting the best for each and every one of us, for the whole people. I am excited and moved by this meeting.”Rivlin has been especially outspoken after two hate-crime attacks toward the end of last week that saw 16-year-old Shira Banki stabbed to death at the Jerusalem Gay Price Parade last Thursday by an ultra-Orthodox man, and Palestinian toddler Ali Saad Dawabsha burned to death in the West Bank last Friday when alleged Jewish terrorists firebombed his family home.In condemning the attack of the Dawabsha family home in Duma and expressing shame that the suspected perpetrators are Jews, Rivlin raised the ire of right-wingers on social media who wished for his death and posted photos and videos casting him as a Nazi officer.The president spoke at an anti-violence rally in Jerusalem last Saturday, following the attacks, and warned that “flames of hatred” were consuming Israel and that Jewish extremists must be met head-on.In a series of interviews in the Hebrew press Friday to mark the one-year anniversary of his presidency, Rivlin said that the online attacks “could be insulting and angering” and that he was facing some “difficult days” with the deluge of hate targeting him, but that “on a personal level, I am not someone who will cancel plans because of personal danger, because I’m really not afraid.”‘Within this country, we tolerate the targeting of our citizens — those who are not Jews, [those who are] Arabs, Christians or Muslims. This may lead us to a situation where we can lose everything’During an interview with Channel 2, Rivlin implicitly criticized the silence of senior Israeli leaders in the face of harsh statements and threats against his life. “If they would say about someone that hates Israel, and I would think it is important to respond, I would get up and say so,” he said. “I would get up and say that while the person may be wrong, he does everything in his power for the State of Israel and for the Israeli people.”Rivlin’s security team lodged a complaint with police earlier in the week over the death threats. An investigation was also launched over a series of videos showing Rivlin — and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu — in SS uniforms.“We are in the middle of a great fracture,” Rivlin told Ynet Friday in reference to the tense public atmosphere following the spate of hate crimes. “Everything’s possible,” he added, when asked if he felt Israel could witness another political assassination.“Today there are those who hallucinate that a democratic and Jewish state is only democratic for the Jews,” he warned.“Terror is terror is terror, and it doesn’t matter what nationality that terror belongs to. There is a difficulty in combating the type of terror that is perpetrated by groups of radical Jews. It’s terror from within and it is difficult to bring these perpetrators to justice; we need to create tools in order to combat this style of terrorism,” added Rivlin.“Within this country, we tolerate the targeting of our citizens — those who are not Jews, [those who are] Arabs, Christians or Muslims. This may lead us to a situation where we can lose everything. We need to deal with this situation where children are killed, or where we allow the blood of others to be spilled, or where you have people who say ‘my religious beliefs command of me to burn, shatter and destroy.’ We must deal with terrorism as terrorism, whether it’s Arab terror or Jewish terror,” Rivlin told Walla News.
Ya’alon: Israel ‘not responsible’ for Iran nuke scientists’ lives-Defense minister hints assassinations may resume, says Israel considering air strikes against nuclear facilities-By Adiv Sterman August 7, 2015, 4:58 pm 218-the times of israel
Israel is not responsible for the lives of Iranian nuclear scientists, Defense Minister Moshe Ya’alon said in an interview published Friday, making a less-than-veiled threat that covert assassination missions blamed on Israel could resume.As the world moves closer to ratifying a nuclear deal that Jerusalem says won’t keep Iran from obtaining a nuclear arsenal, Ya’alon told German newspaper Der Spiegel that Israel would do anything necessary in order to assure Tehran does not get atomic weapons, including taking military action.“Ultimately it is very clear, one way or another, Iran’s military nuclear program must be stopped,” Ya’alon said, according to a retranslation from an interview published in the German daily. “We will act in any way and are not willing to tolerate a nuclear-armed Iran. We prefer that this be done by means of sanctions, but in the end, Israel should be able to defend itself,” the defense minister said.He added that he was “not responsible for the lives of Iranian scientists,” according to Der Spiegel, which will publish the full interview on Saturday.Ya’alon further stated that Israel was considering carrying out airstrikes on Iranian military facilities, the German paper reported.Five Iranian nuclear scientists were killed in the last decade, most of them by bombs placed on their cars, according to foreign media reports.Israel was blamed by Iran to be behind the assassinations, but never admitted any involvement.No Israeli was ever caught, though a number of Iranian were hanged after being accused of collaborating with Jerusalem.The last assassination occurred in late 2013 and have since halted, reportedly as a result of American pressure as negotiations between world powers and Tehran over the nuclear program ramped up, according to CBS news.On July 14, Iran and the United States, along with Britain, China, France, Germany and Russia, recently struck a deal meant to ensure Iran’s nuclear program could not produce a bomb by curbing enrichment in exchange for sanctions relief.Israel has loudly criticized the deal as unenforceable and limited in its ability to thwart Iran’s plans for nuclear weaponization, and is heavily lobbying American lawmakers to vote it down, butting heads with the White House along the way.The nuclear deal must be reviewed and approved by lawmakers in the US and Iran before it can be implemented. The deal has run into fierce opposition from many Republicans and some Democrats on Capitol Hill. Some Arab governments have quietly voiced concerns as well.US lawmakers will vote in September on whether to endorse the deal.US President Barack Obama has said voting down the deal will mean the US will be forced to confront Iran militarily to stop it from gaining a nuclear weapon.Though Israel has threatened to strike Iran to keep it from getting atomic arms, analysts say the Jewish state would need American help to effectively set back Iran’s nuclear program, an idea put on the backburner as diplomacy with Tehran has taken center stage.On Thursday, Iran dismissed as “preposterous” claims that it was cleaning up its suspected nuclear military site at Parchin ahead of inspections agreed under a nuclear deal with world powers. The statement came in response to media reports quoting US members of Congress and the Washington think-tank Institute for Science and International Security who said the work at the military complex, seen in satellite footage, could complicate inspections by the UN nuclear watchdog, the International Atomic Energy Agency, that are a key provision of the deal.Times of Israel staff contributed to this report.
Catholic Church files complaint against extreme right group leader-Bentzi Gopshtain, head of the Lehava, advocated burning mosques and churches at panel earlier this week-By Adiv Sterman August 8, 2015, 1:41 am 1-the times of israel
Leaders of the Catholic Church in Israel filed an incitement complaint against the head of an extreme right-wing group opposed to Jewish-Arab integration, who on Tuesday advocated the burning of mosques and churches in Israel at a public forum.The complaint against Lehava chairman Bentzi Gopshtain was filed in coordination with the Vatican, according to a Haaretz report Friday, and was formulated by a committee which included over 20 bishops and archbishops across Israel.Gopshtain’s remarks during a panel debating Jewish religious law came against the backdrop an arson incident at the Church of the Multiplication of the Loaves and Fishes on the shore of the Sea of Galilee in June. During the session, Benny Rabinovitch, a writer for the ultra-Orthodox paper Yated Ne’eman, asked Gopstein point blank whether he advocated the burning of churches, according to a recording of the debate published Wednesday by the ultra-Orthodox news site Kikar Hashabat.“Maimonides…” Gopshtain started, apparently alluding to the rulings of the 12th century Jewish sage, “you must burn [churches], are you against Maimonides or in favor of Maimonides?”“Don’t tell me about Maimonides, I asked you what you say,” Rabinovitch replied.“Of course I am,” Gopshtain said.Later in the panel conversation, Rabbi Moshe Klein, the head rabbi of Hadassah Hospitals, addressed Gopshtain, saying, “Benzi, just now they filmed and recorded you, and [if] that reaches the police you’ll be arrested.”“That’s the last thing that bothers me,” Gopshtain can be heard saying. “If that’s the truth then I’m prepared to sit 50 years in prison for it.”Gopshtain later responded to reports that he advocated burning churches by saying, “The law is straightforward, Maimonides’ interpretation is that one must burn idolatry. There’s not a single rabbi that would deliberate that fact. I expect the government of Israel to carry that out.”He told Kikar Hashabat, “I said that for speaking the truth, I am prepared to sit in prison. And I emphasized that I don’t burn and won’t go and burn churches.”Lehava opposes homosexuality and the assimilation of Jews, and activists regularly rally against personal or business relationships between Jews and non-Jews, including outside weddings between Jews and Arabs.In December, following the torching of a Jewish-Arab school in Jerusalem and his arrest on suspicion of inciting terrorism, Gopshtain said his organization does not act illegally and accused the Shin Bet security service of trying to frame Lehava to thwart its “holy work of saving the daughters of Israel.” In July, members of Lehava were convicted in the attack on the school.Earlier this week, an internal Shin Bet security service report concluded there was insufficient evidence to blacklist Lehava. The report came as a blow to Defense Minister Moshe Ya’alon’s efforts, with the security agency and legal experts, to build a case for banning the organization.“The conclusion at this stage is that there is insufficient evidence to declare the organization illegal,” the Shin Bet told Haaretz in a statement Tuesday. According to the report, the security agency said it would reconsider its assessment if new evidence against the nationalist group emerges.The Shin Bet’s report came out amid a crackdown on Jewish extremist groups following last week’s firebombing of a Palestinian home near Nablus, in which a year-old baby was killed and his parents and brother were critically wounded, and a stabbing attack by an ultra-Orthodox extremist at the Jerusalem Gay Pride Parade which left one dead and five others injured.Three extremists suspected of involvement in Jewish terrorist activity targeting Palestinians were placed under administrative detention — imprisonment without trial — in the wake of the attack near Nablus.Times of Israel Staff contributed to the report.
