Trump pledges to move US Embassy to Jerusalem-In about-face, leading GOP presidential candidate tells Christian network: ‘Well I am for that 100 percent’-By JTA January 19, 2016, 10:36 pm-THE TIMES OF ISRAEL

WASHINGTON — Donald Trump said he would move the US Embassy to Jerusalem.“They want it in Jerusalem,” the front-runner among Republican presidential candidates said in an interview posted Tuesday by The Brody File, a Christian Broadcasting Network show. “Well I am for that 100 percent. We are for that 100 percent.”David Brody, the CBN journalist, had asked Trump whether he agreed with GOP rivals, including Sens. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, and Marco Rubio, R-Fla., who have pledged to move the embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem once elected.Trump’s agreement seemed to be an about-face from remarks in December at the Republican Jewish Coalition, when the real estate magnate refused to commit to recognizing Jerusalem as Israel’s undivided capital.Speaking over boos at that event, Trump said it was foolish to harden positions ahead of talks.“You can’t go in with the attitude ‘we’re gonna shove it down your,’ you’ve got to go in and get it and do and do it nicely, so that everybody’s happy,” he said there.Congress passed a law in 1995 mandating the move of the embassy to Jerusalem, but allowed the president a waiver. Each president since then has routinely exercised the waiver, citing the national security interests of the United States.Trump, who also drew boos at the RJC event for suggesting Israelis and Palestinians were equally culpable for the collapse of the peace process, told Brody evangelicals should know he would be good for Israel.Calling President Barack Obama “the worst thing that has ever happened to Israel” for negotiating the recent Iran-nuclear deal, Trump pledged loyalty to Israel.“I will be very good to Israel,” he said. “People know that. I have so many friends from Israel. I have won so many awards from Israel. I was even the grand marshal for the Israeli Day Parade a few years ago. So I will back Israel.”

IDF chief: Iran deal raises specter of proxy wars with Israel-Eisenkot tells security conference Hezbollah, backed by Tehran, remains ‘central threat’; warns West Bank violence will continue for years-By Judah Ari Gross and Ilan Ben Zion January 18, 2016, 4:22 pm-THE TIMES OF ISRAEL

IDF Chief of Staff Gadi Eisenkot said Monday that Iran will likely honor the nuclear deal reached with world powers in the coming years, but intensify its proxy war with Israel through the Lebanese Shiite group Hezbollah and other armed groups. He also anticipated that Iran would start allocating increased funds to terror groups, and called the deal a “strategic turning point” as regards the challenges to Israel.Still, Eisenkot said the landmark agreement could present Israel with opportunities in the future.He also warned that terror in the West Bank was unlikely to abate anytime soon.“The [nuclear] deal presents a number of challenges, But also opportunities” in the coming five years as Iran acts more behind the scene, Eisenkot said.He did not elaborate on what the opportunities could be, but Israeli officials in the past have pointed to an opening for increased cooperation with Sunni Gulf states also opposed to Iranian hegemony in the wake of the agreement.The IDF chief spoke at the annual Institute for National Security Studies conference in Tel Aviv just two days after the implementation of the nuclear accord struck last summer between Tehran and world powers, and the lifting of American and European nuclear sanctions against the Islamic Republic.He said that despite short term adherence to the protocols of the nuclear deal, Iran will nonetheless work toward obtaining nuclear arms in the next 15 years — the amount of time Iran agreed not to enrich uranium beyond low levels.“We still place Iran high up in our priorities,” Eisenkot said.Eisenkot said Iran is giving Lebanese terror group Hezbollah approximately $1 billion a year, and that the Shiite organization remains “our central threat.”“Hezbollah is funded, trained and even led by Iran,” he said.He acknowledged that “there is no doubt that the accord between Iran and the West is a strategic turning point.”“The IDF needs to be prepared for the breakout of war in a very short period. It would be a mistake to put all our resources into the fight against terror,” he said.Israeli estimates put Hezbollah’s rocket arsenal at 100,000 short-range rockets capable of striking northern Israel, plus several thousand missiles that can reach Tel Aviv and central Israel, and hundreds more that can reach across the entire country.However the Iranian-backed group has been bogged down battling Sunni rebel groups in Syria in an effort to prop up Syrian President Bashar Assad’s regime, suffering heavy casualties along the way.Despite occasional cross-border flare-ups with Israel, officials believe the group is not interested in another large scale conflict with the Jewish State akin to the 2006 Second Lebanon War.Eisenkot warned that a more immediate threat was daily violence in the West Bank and Jerusalem, which he warned would continue “for years.”Calling the spate of stabbing attacks the “most worrying,” he noted that Monday morning’s stabbing of a pregnant woman in a settlement was the 101st attack on a civilian or soldier since hostilities escalated in late September.Palestinian children, he said, were being educated by the sword and the Koran.He also warned about possible threats from the Islamic State terror group, which he claimed has greater support in the West Bank and Gaza Strip than in any Arab state, with 16% approval, and said its adherents could turn their sights against Israel and Jordan.In Gaza, Eisenkot warned that with Iranian backing, Hamas could restart hostilities with Israel. He said the sporadic rocket fire at southern Israel in the past year was carried out by radical Salafist groups in the Gaza Strip who are opposed to Hamas, and that the area was quieter in 2015 than at any point since the 1970, but the quiet might not last.“Hamas is busy rehabilitating its abilities with Iranian aid instead of focusing on rebuilding the [Gaza] Strip,” Eisenkot said.Sketching out Israel’s strategic priorities, the chief of staff, who took command of the Israeli armed forces last year, said the two ascendant issues were the growing threat of terrorist groups and cyber warfare, while weapons of mass destruction and conventional wars between states were of diminishing concern — “though the IDF is still prepared for it.”It used to be that armies were either preparing for war or waging it, Eisenkot said. Now you must to do both at the same time, constantly employing force.

Slain mother Dafna Meir lauded for heroics fighting off stabber-Nurse, mother to four and foster mother to two recalled as joyful and always willing to help; to be buried in Jerusalem Monday-By Times of Israel staff January 17, 2016, 11:38 pm

Dafna Meir, who was stabbed to death in a terror attack at the West Bank settlement of Otniel, is to be buried Monday in Jerusalem, the day after she was murdered as she tried to fight off an stabber who entered her home in a terror attack.Meir, who leaves behind her husband and four children, aged 11 to 17 will be laid to rest on Monday morning at 11 a.m. at the Har Hamenuhot cemetery in Givat Shaul, Jerusalem.The Meir family was also fostering two additional children, both below the age of five. Dafna was herself adopted at age 13.The funeral procession will begin in Otniel at 9 a.m. and move to the capital where she will be laid to rest.Initial investigations indicated that Meir wrestled with the attacker in an effort to protect the three of her children who were in the home during the attack. The stabber fled the scene without continuing the attack and before he could reach the children.Media reports said her daughter Renana, 17, witnessed the attack and described the terrorist to authorities.Meir’s neighbor, right-wing activist Yehuda Glick, surmised the terrorist likely would have attacked three children in the house at the time if not for Meir fighting them off.“The terrorist tried without a doubt to hurt the kids and Dafna, who was so small and short, fought him,” he told the Walla news site. “We are broken but strong.”Meir, 38, worked as a nurse in the neurosurgery department of Soroka Medical Center, Beesheba. She was also a pre-marital counselor for brides.She was remembered as a “joyful” person by her neighbors.“She was a happy woman, joyful, optimistic, driven, responsible, loving,” a neighbor, Yishai Klein, told Ynet. “Everyone in the settlement who was in pain knew they could call her 24 hours a day.”Friend Liron Steinberg said she “was a woman who enjoyed life, the wittiest woman I know.”“She always looked for how to help. If it was to take two foster kids, or as a nurse in the neurosurgery department. I work as a social worker in the Beit Hagai youth village and she would always invite home kids who didn’t have where else to be,” Steinberg told Ynet.Following the attack, soldiers and police officers launched a manhunt for the attacker, setting up checkpoints in the area and firing flares into the air to provide lighting. The killer was believed to have fled to a nearby Arab village, possibly Khirbet Karme, located just north of Otniel.

Father of alleged Otniel killer: ‘Why should I be punished for what he did?’-Abu Adham says had he known 15-year-old son stabbed Dafna Meir to death, it’s ‘very possible’ he would have turned him in-By Times of Israel staff January 19, 2016, 10:10 pm

The father of Morad Bader Abdullah Adais, the 15-year-old Palestinian accused of stabbing mother of six Dafna Meir to death in her West Bank home on Sunday, says that had he been aware of his son’s actions, it’s “very possible” he would have turned him in to the Israeli authorities.In an interview to Channel 2 television aired Tuesday, Abu Adham expressed concern about Israel’s plan to demolish his home in response to the deadly terror attack.“Why should I be punished for what the kid did?” he asked.Adais, arrested overnight Monday in his village near Hebron, is suspected of entering the 38-year-old Meir’s home in the Otniel settlement and killing her before fleeing the scene. Three of Meir’s children were home when she was killed, and one, 17-year-old Renana, gave security forces a description of the terrorist.The father of the alleged terrorist also maintained that his son “had everything in life,” and had not acted suspiciously.“He’s a little boy. Only 15, who learns in school. He doesn’t know what a Jew is. Never saw a Jew. Never dealt with a Jew, not at work or in anything else,” he said. “He acted naturally. Wasn’t afraid of anything. He acted completely normal. Like he acted his whole life, and because of that we weren’t suspicious and didn’t think anything of this kind.”“He has everything in life.. he was happy. He has tons of clothes, food and drink. He has everything,” Abu Adham said. He also fretted over Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s pledge on Tuesday that his home would be demolished as a result of the attack and his work permits revoked.“Listen, they stopped my work [in Israel] and they’ll demolish my house, of course I… why should I be punished for what the kid did?” he said. “It’s very possible that I would have turned him in myself, if I knew that he carried out an attack,” he told Channel 2.The brother of Adais, who is not identified, told the TV station there was “no way” his brother had carried out the fatal attack. “Listen, he’s a little kid. You give him a bag of potato chips, and he jumps for joy. There is no way he would take a knife and try to… and even if I would say that he went and entered a settlement and managed to break through the fence, how would he get out of there?”Adais’s father said on Tuesday that he was “proud” of his son for carrying out the attack, the news site Walla quoted him as telling Palestinian media outlets. He also said that the soldiers who arrested his son interrogated all members of the family.However, speaking to Channel 2 on Tuesday, an uncle disputed that account. “No one here is proud of the murder,” he said.

Pregnant woman moderately wounded in Tekoa stabbing-Teenage terrorist shot by an armed civilian near the scene; attack comes a day after a woman was killed in a similar attack-By Judah Ari Gross, Joshua Davidovich and Stuart Winer January 18, 2016, 10:41 am-THE TIMES OF ISRAEL

A teenage Palestinian terrorist on Monday stabbed a woman in the settlement of Tekoa, southeast of Jerusalem in the West Bank, moderately injuring her.The attacker, identified later as 19-year-old Othman Muhammad Sha’alan, was shot by an armed civilian after fleeing the scene, outside a clothing warehouse in the community. Although the IDF initially said he was dead, the army later amended its statement, saying he was evacuated to a hospital for treatment.Magen David Adom paramedics reported they were called to treat the injured woman, Michal Froman, who suffered from wounds to her upper body. She is the daughter-in-law of the late Rabbi Menachem Froman, a former rabbi of the community who was known as a peace activist.“On one of the streets in the settlement, we saw an approximately 30-year-old woman sitting in a car,” MDA paramedic Yoni Silman said. “She was fully conscious, after having been stabbed on the street.“People put her into the car as she suffered from stab wounds to the upper body,” he continued. “We put her in the ambulance and gave her medical treatment. She was in moderate and stable condition.” Froman, who is pregnant, was evacuated to the Shaare Zedek Medical Center in Jerusalem for further treatment. Her condition was initially described as “serious.” After surgery, the hospital said that Froman was not in life-threatening danger, and that the fetus was stable.After attacking Froman, the stabber fled the scene and was shot by security forces next to a nearby horse farm. He had entered Tekoa through a hole in the perimeter fence, reports said.In what appeared to be a precautionary move, Tekoa residents were instructed in a text message to remain in their homes and lock their doors until further notice. The settlement also told residents who employed Palestinian workers to take them out of the community.“In light of a situational assessment and following recent terror attacks, security measures have been taken in the communities in the Etzion Bloc and all Palestinian workers have been instructed to leave the communities by the Etzion Regional Brigade commander Col. Roman Gofman,” an IDF spokesperson told The Times of Israel.The stabbing came a day after a Palestinian terrorist stabbed to death Dafna Meir, a mother of six, in her home in the Otniel settlement, south of Hebron. The assailant fled and a massive manhunt has been underway to apprehend him.Monday’s attack was the latest in a four month-long wave of violence that shows no sign of abating. Palestinian attacks have killed 25 Israelis and an American student. At least 146 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli fire, of whom 101 are said by Israel to have been attackers. The rest have been killed in clashes with Israeli troops.Israel says the violence is the result of a Palestinian campaign of lies and incitement. The Palestinians say it is rooted in frustrations over Israel’s nearly 50-year occupation.AP contributed to this report.

Kuwait Air ends New York service Monday over refusal to carry Israelis-US Department of Transportation required carrier to cease ‘unlawful discrimination’; instead it ceased route-By JTA January 17, 2016, 9:05 pm-THE TIMES OF ISRAEL

WASHINGTON — Kuwait Air is ending its New York to London service over the carrier’s refusal to carry Israeli passengers.“The US Department of Transportation will not tolerate unlawful discrimination, and has mandated that the airline immediately cease that practice and allow Israeli passengers to travel between the US and London,” Anthony Foxx, the transportation secretary, said in a statement on Friday.“In light of our demands, Kuwait Airways has chosen to cease passenger service from New York JFK airport to London Heathrow by January 18.”The department had informed Kuwait Air in September that its policies were in violation of US law.The determination came after a complaint by Eldad Gatt, an Israeli citizen who in 2013 wanted to travel on an Israeli passport from New York to London.In October, Kuwait Air responded to the department saying that Kuwaiti law banned the transport of Israeli citizens and argued that implementing that policy in the United States did not violate US law.

Brno Jewish community unveils new Torah scroll-Ceremony marks completion of year-long renovation of the synagogue in the Czech Republic’s second largest city-By JTA January 19, 2016, 9:15 pm-THE TIMES OF ISRAEL

PRAGUE, Czech Republic — The Jewish community of Brno, in the Czech Republic, has inaugurated a new Torah scroll in the city’s only surviving synagogue.The dedication ceremony on Sunday marked the completion of a more than year-long renovation of the synagogue in the country’s second largest city.Several hundred people attended its inauguration, including Petr Papousek, the head of the Czech Republic’s federation of Jewish communities; Gary Koren, Israeli ambassador to the Czech Republic; Brno Mayor Petr Vokral; and the bishop of the Brno diocese, Vojtech Cikrle.The Torah scroll was fashioned by Israeli scribe Rabbi Moshe Fluemenbaum of Jerusalem.The costs of the renovation, which amounted to about $480,000, were covered by the EU, as well as grants from the European Economic area and Norway. The cost of the new Torah scroll alone was over $32,000, according to the manager of the project, Petr Špunar of the Brno Jewish community.The Jewish community of Brno has about 300 members. The functionalist-style Agudas Achim synagogue was erected in the 1930s. It was re-dedicated in 1945 and has since been in active use as the only synagogue in the eastern region of the country.

American LGBTQ group cancels event with Israelis, later backtracks-A Wider Bridge says group calls off encounter under pressure from anti-Israel activists; decision later reversed-By JTA and Times of Israel staff January 19, 2016, 10:45 pm

An upcoming meeting between members of an Israeli gay organization and the US’s National LGBTQ Task Force was cancelled by the American group, apparently due to pressure by anti-Israel activists, but reinstated Tuesday with an apology.A Wider Bridge, which works to build connections with lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer individuals and groups in Israel, says that the National LGBTQ Task Force canceled the reception with leaders of Jerusalem’s Open House, scheduled to be held at the Creating Change conference in Chicago, which takes place from Wednesday to Friday.The organization announced over the weekend that it would move the reception, scheduled for Friday, to a new location outside the conference venue.A Wider Bridge, in an email blast and a statement on its website, called for the event to be included on the conference’s program, and for an apology from the National LGBTQ Task Force for the cancellation.“We are saddened by what appears to be capitulation to the intimidation of a small number of anti-Israel extremists who want to shut down the voices of those who don’t adhere to their rigid and exclusive party line. As LGBTQ people, we are all too familiar with being oppressed through shaming, the closet, and imposed silence, and we see great danger in allowing this kind of censorship and blatant double standard to become the norm in our community,” said Arthur Slepian, executive director of A Wider Bridge, in the statement.“A Wider Bridge is one of the leading LGBTQ organizations in the country, an advocate for LGBTQ rights here in North America, in Israel and around the world, and it is both sad and disgraceful that the organizers of Creating Change decided that there is no place for us in this significant gathering of LGBT leaders from around the U.S. and the world. We work to promote honest dialogue and collaboration and to present Israel to our program participants in all of its complexity. Our trips include visits to the West Bank, and our participants engage with Palestinians, Israeli Ethiopians, transgender leaders, and LGBTQ leaders from Israel’s religious communities,” he said.A Wider Bridge said it sought to bring speakers from the Jerusalem Open House to talk about its Jerusalem March for Pride, where last summer a teenage girl was killed and six other wounded by a Haredi Orthodox attacker, and its aftermath.“The National LGBTQ Task Force is an organization whose work and mission we support and admire. On most issues, we are on the same side. But they have the power to decide which voices get heard at the nation’s largest LGBTQ gathering, and in this instance, they have used that power in a misguided and irresponsible way. We will not let them define A Wider Bridge as ‘outside the tent,’ censor our voices, or blacklist us and our work as ‘unkosher’ for Creating Change,” the organization said in a statement.On Tuesday, the National LGBTQ Task Force backtracked and reinvited the representatives from A Wider Bridge.“It is our belief that when faced with choices, we should move towards our core value of inclusion and opportunities for constructive dialogue and canceling the reception was a mistake,” it said in a statement.“We are aware that our original decision made it appear we were taking sides in a complex and long-standing conflict, which was not the intention, and that in cancelling the reception we deeply offended many people, and our reversal will offend others. In reversing the decision today, we want to make it quite clear that the Creating Change Conference will always be a safe space for inclusion and dialogue for people with often widely different views.”The Anti-Defamation League on Tuesday “strongly commended” the Task Force for its apology.“We are very pleased that the Task Force has reversed course and taken responsibility for their deeply misguided decision to cancel this reception. We were surprised and disappointed with the initial choice to cancel an event that had been designed to celebrate and embrace ties with Israel’s diverse LGBTQ community. That initial decision was unworthy of an organization committed to justice and equality,” it said.
