Israeli aid team heads to Uruguay, where COVID dream has turned to nightmare-The South American country hardly felt the virus last year, but now has the world’s second-highest infection rate and hospitals are under pressure-By Nathan Jeffay-APR V27,21-Today, 1:42 pm
An Israeli aid delegation was set to land Tuesday in Uruguay, a country that went almost overnight from a low-COVID oasis to a notorious hotspot with the world’s second-highest rate of new cases.The four-person team from Sheba Medical Center’s weeklong mission will focus on helping hospitals struggling to cope with the sudden skyrocketing of cases in recent weeks to establish new coronavirus facilities.For most of 2020, Uruguay, which has a population of just 3.5 million, had very low virus stats. It ended the year with just 181 COVID deaths, but has now seen 2,391, and aside from Cyprus, which just had a sudden spike, has the highest incidence of new cases in proportion to the population.Some 187,000 Uruguayans have been diagnosed — almost three quarters of them since mid-February, apparently as a result of a variant from neighboring Brazil.“As cases rise in Uruguay, we’re here to give whatever help, advice and information proves useful in fighting the crisis,” Moriya Suliman, a nurse from the Sheba delegation, told The Times of Israel. “We’re excited to help.”The delegation includes senior doctor Moshe Ashkenazi and Sheba’s logistics coordinator Shai Swissa, who was responsible for identifying spare areas at the hospital, including parking lots, and converting them into coronavirus wards.He will be helping hospitals in Uruguay to do the same — to open new intensive care facilities and wards for COVID-positive psychiatric patients, dialysis patients and others — as done in Sheba. Swissa is the son of Uruguayan parents who moved to Israel, and will do his coaching in fluent Spanish.The team will mainly help and advise in hospitals, but will also provide consultations to authorities on vaccination strategies. Uruguay has been racing to vaccinate since it became the last country in South America to start its vaccination campaign on March 1. Almost a third of its population has now received at least one shot.Members of the Sheba Medical Center aid team to Uruguay (in T-shirts) before departure, with the ambassador of Uruguay to Israel Bernardo Griever (in suit) next to Prof. Arnon Afek, deputy director general of the hospital. (courtesy of Sheba Medical Center)-Authorities in Uruguay asked Sheba’s Israel Center for Disaster Medicine and Humanitarian Response for help, and the hospital responded by shipping equipment, including ECG machines and ventilators, and assembling the aid team.“They came to us because we’re the first nation to beat coronavirus and return to normal routine,” said Suliman. “At Sheba we’ve closed all our coronavirus wards and we can share all our knowledge, allowing them to learn from our experiences, including from our mistakes.”Delegation head Amit Gutkind, a nurse who masterminded Sheba’s rapid vaccination program, said: “They ask a lot about what’s happening in Israel and how we improved things in such a short time, and we’re pleased to now be on the ground to provide some answers.”

Green body petitions High Court over right to info on Israel’s natural resources-With so little money paid into sovereign wealth fund, Adam Teva V’Din seeks to fix transparency rules for details on natural resources owned by public, exploited by private sector-By Sue Surkes-APR 27,21-Today, 2:57 am
The environmental advocacy organization Adam Teva V’Din filed a Freedom of Information petition at the High Court on Monday to clarify the status of natural resources in Israeli law and the obligation for transparency, given that those resources are owned by the public.In 2014, the Israeli Citizens’ Fund Law was passed, setting out the mechanism for the creation of a sovereign wealth fund aimed at ensuring that Israeli citizens — not only investors — reap benefits above and beyond corporate taxes and royalties from the massive natural gas reserves discovered off the Mediterranean coast in recent years.The law was subsequently amended to add levies on profits from natural resources such as mines as well.The wealth fund needs NIS 1 billion ($291 million) to start operating. But despite predictions at the time that it would contain billions of dollars by 2022, to date only around NIS 450 million ($130 million) has been collected, 75 percent of it paid in 2013 for the Mari-B Yam Tethys gas field, which closed in 2012. The rest came from ICL, which, in addition to the Dead Sea Works, also mines phosphates in the Negev Desert.The petition addresses the balance that should be struck between commercial confidentiality and the duty of transparency where publicly owned natural resources are concerned.It names the Tax Authority, the official in charge of Freedom of Information at that authority, and seven companies that have franchises to explore for, or mine, natural resources, including gas.“This is another step in our long journey to ensure that the public receives its share of the profits from natural resources,” a statement from the organization said.The filing came the same day Israeli energy giant Delek Drilling announced that it had signed a memorandum of understanding to sell its entire stake in Israel’s Tamar offshore gas field to the Abu Dhabi government-owned Mubadala Petroleum, potentially handing the United Arab Emirates a major share in one of the Jewish state’s key strategic and economic assets.
Birthright resuming trips to Israel for vaccinated or recovered US Jews from May-The organization, which canceled its visits for over a year due to COVID-19, says it expects hundreds of tour groups over the next few months-By TOI staff-APR 27,21-Today, 10:25 am
After a yearlong hiatus, Birthright Israel will resume its trips to the Holy Land, the organization announced Tuesday.Starting in May, vaccinated or recovered participants from the United States will be able to travel to Israel to participate in a 10-day tour. Birthright discontinued its trips in March 2020 due to COVID-19.The free 10-day trip takes participants throughout the country — from the stone streets of Jerusalem and the beaches of Tel Aviv to the ancient plateaus of Masada and the Golan Heights.Gidi Mark, CEO of Birthright Israel. (Erez Uzir / Courtesy of Birthright Israel-Taglit)“With the input of Israel’s Health Ministry, we’re confident that we’ve developed the best plan to safely and efficiently resume our trips, which play such a critical part in strengthening the Jewish identity of hundreds of thousands of young people around the world,” Birthright Israel CEO Gidi Mark said in a statement.“The last year has been hard, but we never lost hope that there was light at the end of the tunnel. Now, the wait is over, and it is time to come back to Israel on Birthright Israel,” Mark added.Participants will be required to present a negative PCR test before they fly and undergo a serological test upon arrival in Israel, which tests for antibodies. They will also be asked to maintain social distancing and mask-wearing measures in accordance with the Health Ministry guidelines.Groups will be limited to 20 participants, half the size of Birthright groups pre-pandemic.“When the first Birthright Israel groups took off in December of 1999, we could never have imagined all of the incredible milestones we would hit in just 20 years,” said Charles Bronfman, co-founder of Birthright Israel.“The pandemic has been heartbreaking for all of us. Needless to say, the pause in our program was so sad, but I’m thrilled to know that our participants will soon be back in Israel. The magic continues,” he said.While the trips to Israel were in hiatus due to COVD, Birthright organizations offered several virtual alternatives, such as Birthright Excel, a 10-week internship program delivered via Zoom last summer, the organization said.Birthright Israel announced that over 400 tour groups are planned for July, August and October. It also expects dozens of trips to take place in May and June.Before COVID-19 stopped Birthright’s operations, the organization provided tours for over 750,000 young Jewish Adults hailing from 68 countries. To be eligible, participants must have at least one Jewish parent or have converted to Judaism, and be between the ages of 18 and 32.Last summer, it was estimated that the cancellation of Jewish heritage trips — including Birthright — would cost Israel’s economy $200 million. According to the organization, Birthright Israel trips have contributed approximately $1.825 billion to the Israeli economy in the past two decades.
EU to push Israel on Jerusalem voting as Abbas set to delay election – report-Lebanese newspaper says bloc wants time to pressure Jewish state on formally allowing voting in capital, a matter on which Israel has been silent-By TOI staff-APR 27,21-Today, 9:45 am
Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas has told the European Union, Egypt and Jordan of his decision to postpone the upcoming elections, but the EU has asked for a delay to a formal announcement on the matter so that it can pressure Israel to allow voting in East Jerusalem, a Lebanese newspaper reported Tuesday.As justification for the postponement, Abbas is set to cite Israel’s silence on whether East Jerusalem Palestinians can participate.The report in the Lebanese daily Al-Akhbar, widely considered a mouthpiece for the terror group Hezbollah, came amid mounting indications that the elections will be delayed.Palestinians are currently scheduled to head to their first national vote in 15 years on May 22. The last Palestinian national elections were held in 2006, when Hamas defeated Abbas’s Fatah movement in a landslide.At a Monday meeting of the Fatah Central Committee, Abbas reiterated that he would not permit the elections to take place without the residents of East Jerusalem being permitted to vote.The Palestinian leadership — including leaders of Hamas and Islamic Jihad — is scheduled to meet on Thursday to decide whether the elections can go forward without Israel officially permitting East Jerusalem Palestinians to participate. According to Al-Akhbar, the EU has asked Abbas to wait until at least after those discussions before making a formal announcement.Egyptian officials said Monday that the Palestinian Authority intends to call off the elections at Thursday’s meeting. An Egyptian diplomat and an intelligence official said they had been briefed on the decision. They said Egypt was in talks with Israel to reach a compromise to allow the vote but those efforts have so far failed.The intelligence official said Hamas wants the elections to go ahead but that no faction wants to proceed without guarantees from the international community that voting will be held in East Jerusalem. The official said the factions are discussing the formation of a unity government instead that would include Hamas.Abbas’s opponents have charged in recent days that the widely unpopular PA president, fearful of political defeat, is using Israel’s refusal to formally permit East Jerusalem voting as a pretext to back away from holding the election. The vote, originally scheduled for 2010, sees his once-dominant Fatah movement under challenge from breakaway factions as well as Hamas.Sources from Gaza’s ruling terror organization told Al-Akhbar on Monday that the potential cancellation of the elections could lead to an escalation of violence.According to the Kan public broadcaster, top-level discussions are now taking place in Hamas to decide how the terror group will response to the expected postponement of the elections.Israel has yet to say whether it will permit voting in East Jerusalem, which it captured from Jordan in the 1967 Six Day War and later annexed in a move not recognized by most of the international community. Palestinians there have Israeli residency rights, and in principle can apply for Israeli citizenship.The Oslo Accords, a series of bilateral agreements between Israel and the Palestine Liberation Organization, stipulate that Palestinians can vote at designated post offices throughout Jerusalem.The Palestinian election commission says 150,000 voters will be able to cast ballots on the outskirts of East Jerusalem, in a process that does not require a green light from Israel. And a symbolic 6,300 will get to vote within the holy city itself under Israeli supervision.But Palestinian authorities fear that arrangement could still leave thousands of the city’s inhabitants disenfranchised.The Palestinians view East Jerusalem as the capital of their future state, while Israel considers the entire city its undivided capital and bars any PA activity from taking place in the city. About 60 candidates in the Palestinian elections are from East Jerusalem.Aaron Boxerman and agencies contributed to this report.
UK’s Johnson denies saying thousands of ‘bodies piled high’ better than lockdown-British PM calls reports of leaked remarks from debate over imposing a third UK lockdown ‘total, total rubbish,’ as pressure on him mounts ahead of local elections-By Jill Lawless-APR 27,21-Today, 5:52 am
LONDON (AP) — British Prime Minister Boris Johnson dismissed as “total rubbish” a press report which quoted him as allegedly saying he would rather see “bodies pile high in their thousands” than impose a third national lockdown on the country.The Daily Mail claimed that Johnson made the comment during a heated discussion in late October, when his government imposed a second lockdown to combat a surge in coronavirus cases. A third lockdown was ordered in January as infections shot up again, driven by a new, more contagious variant of the virus.The Daily Mail didn’t cite a source for the claim, but there has been a spate of leaks from Johnson’s 10 Downing St. office, which are being investigated by government officials. Broadcasters BBC and ITV said they had also been told of the “bodies” remark.Johnson said Monday that the allegation was “total, total rubbish.”Britain has spent much of the last year under restrictions on business and daily life as it tried to contain a COVID-19 outbreak that has left more than 127,000 people dead, the highest toll in Europe. Restrictions are gradually being eased alongside a mass-vaccination campaign that has given at least one dose of vaccine to half the UK population.Cabinet Minister Michael Gove said Johnson had treated decisions about lockdowns extremely seriously.“This is a prime minister who was in hospital himself in intensive care” with the virus last year, Gove said. “The idea that he would say any such thing I find incredible.”The claim is the latest in a swirl of allegations of cronyism and ethical breaches against Johnson and his Conservative government that have been piling up ahead of local and regional elections next week.The prime minister’s former top aide, Dominic Cummings, claimed last week that Johnson planned to get Conservative Party donors to fund the refurbishment of the prime minister’s Downing Street apartment. Cummings, who left his job late last year, said he had told Johnson the plan was “unethical, foolish, possibly illegal.”Johnson’s office said the prime minister paid to renovate the apartment, where he lives with fiancée Carrie Symonds and their baby son Wilfred, though it did not say whether he had been lent the money for the work.The Electoral Commission, which regulates political finances in the UK, has said it is seeking answers from the Conservative Party over whether any sums should have been declared under the law on political donations.Johnson has also denied doing anything wrong when he exchanged text messages with a wealthy industrialist and promised he would “fix” the tax rules for him.The exchange occurred in March 2020 when Johnson was trying to encourage vacuum cleaner tycoon James Dyson to make ventilators for the hard-pressed National Health Service. Singapore-based Dyson sought assurances that his staff members would not have to pay extra taxes if they came to Britain to work on the project.Johnson said he would not apologize “for shifting heaven and earth” to secure vital medical equipment in an emergency.One of Johnson’s Conservative predecessors, former Prime Minister David Cameron, is also facing cronyism allegations over his lobbying for a now-bankrupt financial services firm, Greensill Capital, whose founder he had employed as an adviser. Cameron denies wrongdoing.Keir Starmer, leader of the opposition Labour Party, said the “drip, drip, drip of allegations” was damaging people’s trust in politics.“We need to get to the bottom of it, we need strong recommendations for change,” he said. “Because I think, for a lot of people, this is beginning to feel like very strongly like one rule for them and another rule for everybody else.”

Amid nuclear deal talks, Iran, US warships in 1st tense Mideast brush in a year-Incident follows a series of events attributed to a shadow war between Iran and Israel, including attacks on regional shipping and sabotage at Iran’s Natanz nuclear facility-By AP and TOI staff Today, 12:08 pm
American and Iranian warships had a tense encounter in the Persian Gulf earlier this month, the first such incident in about a year amid wider turmoil in the region over Tehran’s tattered nuclear deal, the US Navy said Tuesday.Footage released by the US Navy showed a ship commanded by Iran’s paramilitary Revolutionary Guard cutting in front of the USCGC Monomoy, causing the Coast Guard vessel to come to an abrupt stop with its engine smoking on April 2.The Guard also did the same with another Coast Guard vessel, the USCGC Wrangell, said Cmdr. Rebecca Rebarich, a spokeswoman for the Navy’s Mideast-based 5th Fleet. Such close passes risk the ships colliding at sea.Iran did not immediately acknowledge the incident in the southern reaches of the Persian Gulf, which resulted in no injuries or damage.“The US crews issued multiple warnings via bridge-to-bridge radio, five short blasts from the ships’ horns, and while the (Iranian) Harth 55 responded to the bridge-to-bridge radio queries, they continued the unsafe maneuvers,” Rebarich said. “After approximately three hours of the US issuing warning and conducting defensive maneuvers, the (Iranian) vessels maneuvered away from the US ships and opened distance between them.”The Wall Street Journal first reported on the incident, which involved the Iranian Harth support ship and three Iranian fast-attack craft. The Coast Guard units operate out of Bahrain as part of Patrol Forces Southwest Asia, its biggest unit overseas.The interaction marked the first “unsafe and unprofessional” incident involving the Iranians since April 15, 2020, Rebarich said. However, Iran had largely stopped such incidents in 2018 and nearly in the entirety of 2019, she said.In 2017, the US Navy recorded 14 instances of what it describes as “unsafe and or unprofessional” interactions with Iranians forces. It recorded 35 in 2016, and 23 in 2015.The incidents at sea almost always involve the Revolutionary Guard, which reports only to Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. Typically, they involve Iranian speedboats armed with deck-mounted machine guns and rocket launchers test-firing weapons or shadowing American aircraft carriers passing through the Strait of Hormuz, the narrow mouth of the Persian Gulf through which 20 percent of all oil passes.Some analysts believe the incidents are meant in part to squeeze President Hassan Rouhani’s administration after the 2015 nuclear deal. They include a 2016 incident in which Iranian forces captured and held overnight 10 US sailors who strayed into the Islamic Republic’s territorial waters.“US naval forces continue to remain vigilant and are trained to act in a professional manner, while our commanding officers retain the inherent right to act in self-defense,” Rebarich said.The incident comes as Iran negotiates with world powers in Vienna over Tehran and Washington returning to the 2015 nuclear deal, talks due to resume Tuesday. It also follows a series of incidents across the Mideast attributed to a shadow war between Iran and Israel, which includes attacks on regional shipping and sabotage at Iran’s Natanz nuclear facility.Earlier this week, Iran’s Armed Forces chief Mohammad Bagheri threatened to “teach Israel a very good lesson,” appearing to hint the Jewish state was behind a reported attack on an Iranian tanker off Syria’s coast over the weekend, but stopping short of blaming Jerusalem explicitly for the incident.Bagheri’s threat came the day before Israel sent a delegation to Washington on Monday to voice objection to the US return to the Iran nuclear deal. Israeli officials believe Iran poses an existential threat to the Jewish state, and adamantly oppose the US returning to the deal, putting Jerusalem at odds with the new White House administration.
Iran warns Israel that regional ‘mischief’ will be met with great force-Revolutionary Guards commander makes comments after reported strike on Iranian ship off Syrian coast and amid unrest in Jerusalem and on Gaza border-By TOI staff-APR27,21-Today, 12:58 pM
Iran’s powerful Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps warned Israel on Monday against carrying out any further “mischiefs,” saying they will be responded to with great force.The comments, made by commander Gen. Hossein Salami in an interview with the Arabic-language al-Mayadeen news channel, apparently referred to the recent unrest in Jerusalem and at the Gaza border, as well as the shadow maritime war between Tehran and Jerusalem and a recent explosion at a nuclear facility that Iran has attributed to Israel.“The mischiefs that the Zionists commit in the region will backfire on them. The Islamic Republic of Iran will give an equal and more powerful reaction to any evil act,” said Salami, according to the Fars news agency.In the past few days, you have witnessed how their evil deeds did not go unanswered and how some developments happened in the occupied territories, and these incidents and developments will definitely be repeated and will grow greater in the future,” he said.The comments followed similar remarks on Sunday by Iranian Armed Forces Chief of Staff Major General Mohammad Bagheri, who also referred to a reported attack on an Iranian tanker off the Syrian coast on Saturday.“The Zionists imagine that they can continuously target the Syrian territories and conduct mischief in different places and in the sea and receive no response,” Bagheri said.Bagheri threatened to “teach Israel a very good lesson,” but stopped short of blaming Jerusalem explicitly for the incident.Bagheri told reporters: “We don’t announce anything about the incidents that happened recently, nor do we know who did it, but the Resistance Front will teach Israel a very good lesson,” according to several Iranian journalists.The comments by the military officials came amid recent rising tensions with Iran that have seen the two countries blame each other for attacks on their ships in the region, which caused minor damage, and also an operations-disrupting explosion at a key Iranian nuclear facility that Tehran attributed to Israel.Further stoking tensions, Gazan armed factions, some of which receive Iranian support, launched over 40 rockets into Israel over the weekend. On Saturday, a number of Palestinian terror groups fired experimental rockets toward the Mediterranean Sea as a show of force.Palestinian terror groups have said that the weekend’s rocket attacks were in response to ongoing unrest in Jerusalem, where Arab residents demonstrated for several days against Ramadan restrictions on congregating near Jerusalem’s Damascus Gate.Those restrictions were lifted by police on Sunday evening.Hamas, the de facto ruler of the Gaza Strip, has at times been supported by Iran, but resisted openly moving too close to hardliners in Tehran. However, last year Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh spoke at the Tehran funeral of Iranian general Qassem Soleimani, crediting the Quds Force leader with building his and other Palestinian groups.
Facing outcry, Kerry denies he told Iran’s Zarif about Israeli strikes in Syria-Former US secretary of state cites Israeli minister’s 2018 speech mentioning raids, and State Department notes generally that such operations were public knowledge-By TOI staff-APR 27.21-Today, 11:09 am
Former US secretary of state John Kerry on Monday denied Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif’s claim that the top US diplomat told him Israel had carried out 200 strikes on Iranian targets in Syria.“I can tell you that this story and these allegations are unequivocally false. This never happened — either when I was Secretary of State or since,” Kerry tweeted.The tweet cited a 2018 article by the Reuters news agency in which then-intelligence minister Israel Katz said that Israel had carried out over 200 airstrikes against Iranian targets in Syria over the previous two years.Kerry’s denial came amid pressure from some parts of the Republican party after The New York Times published a report on a leaked interview Zarif gave last year.Zarif said that he was often kept in the dark about security matters, and that “to his astonishment,” Kerry told him that Israel had attacked Iranian interests in Syria at least 200 times.In the recording, Zarif told the interviewer that he hadn’t been told about key issues.“Kerry has to tell me that Israel has attacked you 200 times in Syria?” said Zarif.“You did not know?” the interviewer asked twice, according to direct quotes published by the Times for the first time on Monday evening, to which Zarif responded “no, no” on both occasions.Zarif did not clarify when the purported conversation with Kerry took place. Kerry served as a chief negotiator for the 2015 nuclear deal between Iran and world powers and dealt closely with Zarif over the years.Israel acknowledges having launched hundreds of strikes in Syria since the start of the civil war there in 2011, aimer to counter Iranian moves to establish a permanent military presence in the country and to transport advanced, game-changing weapons to terrorist groups in the region, principally Hezbollah.Still, Israel’s official policy is to neither officially confirm nor deny specific operations in Syria, save for those in retaliation for an attack from the country.State Department spokesman Ned Price on Monday noted the widespread reporting on Israel’s strikes and implied that even if Kerry had made the comments, the existence of the strikes was public knowledge.“I would just make the broad point that if you go back and look at press reporting from the time, this certainly was not secret,” Price said. “And governments that were involved were speaking to this publicly, on the record.”Some Republican officials attacked Kerry in the wake of the Times report, accusing him of leaking Israeli military secrets. Kerry, who now serves as US President Joe Biden’s special envoy on the climate crisis, was already under fire from the GOP over those policies.“People are talking about treason — and I don’t throw that word around a lot,” said Alaska’s Sen. Dan Sullivan. “John Kerry does all kinds of things that I can’t stand. But this is the one that broke the camel’s back.”Nikki Haley, who served as US ambassador to the UN under the Trump administration and is widely thought to be considering a 2024 presidential run, called the reported conversation between Kerry and Zarif “disgusting.”However, others in the party urged a more cautious approach to Zarif’s comments.“I don’t know if we should trust that tape or not. If it’s true, it’s very damaging,” said Sen. Lindsey Graham. “I like John Kerry, but that would not be helpful and it would be very problematic if it were true. But let’s wait and see how authentic this is.”Ahead of Kerry’s public response , Sen. Mitt Romney also said that the matter should be examined in light of the fact it was based only on the Iranian envoy’s comments, Politico reported.“It’s very troubling, and there needs to be full transparency to understand exactly what was done, by whom, for what purpose, and an accounting of what occurred,” said Romney, a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. “We have one recording by an Iranian official, but this is something that has to be evaluated and looked into.”The most recent time a high-level US official was accused of divulging Israeli military secrets was 2017, when then-president Donald Trump told Russia of intelligence that reportedly came specifically from a spy embedded in the Islamic State terrorist group on behalf of Israel. The spy was also reportedly a major asset in gaining information on the actions of Iran in Syria — through its Revolutionary Guard Corps and Lebanese proxy Hezbollah. The leak reportedly placed the person’s life at risk and Israeli intelligence officials were said to have been outraged by Trump’s actions.Zarif made the comments about Kerry in an hours-long taped conversation that took place last March as part of an oral history project. A copy was leaked to the UK-based Persian language news channel Iran International, which is viewed as hostile to Iran and is owned by Saudi Arabians.In the interview, Zarif also criticized the power of Qassem Soleimani, saying the assassinated head of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps had been setting Tehran’s policy.Zarif said that Soleimani had worked with Russia to sabotage the nuclear deal and acted in Syria’s long-running war in a way that damaged Tehran’s interests, as well as undermining him on a number of occasions, the Times reported.“In the Islamic Republic the military field rules,” Zarif said. “I have sacrificed diplomacy for the military field rather than the field servicing diplomacy.The extracts also suggested Soleimani refused to listen to a request by Zarif’s Foreign Ministry that Tehran show less overt support for Syrian leader Bashar Assad, including not using state airline Iran Air to transport military equipment and personnel to Syria and not deploying ground forces to the war-torn country.Zarif also criticized Soleimani for allowing Russian planes to fly over Iran on their way to bomb Syria.According to the Times, Zarif could be heard on a number of occasions in the interview emphasizing that his words were not for publication.Zarif also claimed that Soleimani traveled to Moscow to “demolish our achievement” and try to stop Russia’s support for the nuclear deal struck with world powers.

Growing anger
as virus devastates India, overwhelming cemeteries,
crematoriums-Government and Prime Minister Modi face criticism amid
deadly record-breaking wave of infections; authorities ask Twitter to
stifle some reproving voices-By SHEIKH SAALIQ and AIJAZ HUSSAIN-APR
26,21-Today, 2:44 am
NEW DELHI, India (AP) — With life-saving
oxygen in short supply, family members in India are left on their own to
ferry coronavirus patients from hospital to hospital in search of
treatment as the country is engulfed in a devastating new surge of
infections. Too often their efforts end in mourning.The stories are told
on social media and in television footage, showing desperate relatives
pleading for oxygen outside hospitals or weeping in the street for loved
ones who died waiting for treatment.One woman mourned the death of her
younger brother, aged 50. He was turned away by two hospitals and died
waiting to be seen at a third, gasping after his oxygen tank ran out and
no replacements were to be had. She blamed Prime Minister Narendra
Modi’s government for the crisis.“He has lit funeral pyres in every
house,” she cried in a video shot by India’s weekly magazine The
Caravan.For the fourth straight day, India on Sunday set a global daily
record of new coronavirus infections, spurred by an insidious new
variant that emerged here. The surge has undermined the government’s
premature claims of victory over the pandemic.The 349,691 confirmed
infections over the past day brought India’s total to more than 16.9
million cases, behind only the United States. The Health Ministry
reported another 2,767 deaths in the past 24 hours, pushing India’s
fatalities to 192,311.Experts say this toll could be a huge undercount,
as suspected cases are not included, and many COVID-19 deaths are being
attributed to underlying conditions.The unfolding crisis is most
visceral in India’s overwhelmed graveyards and crematoriums, and in
heartbreaking images of gasping patients dying on their way to hospitals
due to lack of oxygen.Burial grounds in the capital New Delhi are
running out of space. Bright, glowing funeral pyres light up the night
sky in other badly hit cities.In the central city of Bhopal, some
crematoriums have increased their capacity from dozens of pyres to more
than 50. Yet officials say there are still hours-long waits.At the
city’s Bhadbhada Vishram Ghat crematorium, workers said they cremated
more than 110 people on Saturday, even as government figures in the
entire city of 1.8 million put the total number of virus deaths at just
10.“The virus is swallowing our city’s people like a monster,” said
Mamtesh Sharma, an official at the site.The unprecedented rush of bodies
has forced the crematorium to skip individual ceremonies and exhaustive
rituals that Hindus believe release the soul from the cycle of
rebirth.“We are just burning bodies as they arrive,” said Sharma. “It is
as if we are in the middle of a war.”The head gravedigger at New
Delhi’s largest Muslim cemetery, where 1,000 people have been buried
during the pandemic, said more bodies are arriving now than last year.
“I fear we will run out of space very soon,” said Mohammad Shameem.The
situation is equally grim at unbearably full hospitals, where desperate
people are dying in line, sometimes on the roads outside, waiting to see
doctors.Health officials are scrambling to expand critical care units
and stock up on dwindling supplies of oxygen.Hospitals and patients
alike are struggling to procure scarce medical equipment that’s being
sold on the black market at an exponential markup.The drama is in direct
contrast with government claims that “nobody in the country was left
without oxygen,” in a statement made Saturday by India’s Solicitor
General Tushar Mehta before Delhi High Court.The breakdown is a stark
failure for a country whose prime minister only in January had declared
victory over COVID-19, and which boasted of being the “world’s
pharmacy,” a global producer of vaccines, and a model for other
developing nations.Caught off-guard by the latest deadly spike, the
federal government has asked industrialists to increase the production
of oxygen and other life-saving drugs in short supply. But health
experts say India had an entire year to prepare for the inevitable — and
it didn’t.Dr. Krutika Kuppalli, assistant professor of medicine in the
division of infectious diseases at the Medical University of South
Carolina, said the government should have used the last year, when the
virus was more under control, to stockpile medicines and develop systems
to confront the likelihood of a new surge.“Most importantly, they
should have looked at what was going on in other parts of the world and
understood that it was a matter of time before they would be in a
similar situation,” Kuppalli said.Instead, the government’s premature
declarations of victory over the pandemic created a “false narrative,”
which encouraged people to relax health measures when they should have
continued strict adherence to physical distancing, wearing masks and
avoiding large crowds.Modi is facing mounting criticism for allowing
Hindu festivals and attending mammoth election rallies that experts
suspect accelerated the spread of infections. At one such rally on April
17, Modi expressed his delight at the huge crowd, even as experts
warned that a deadly surge was inevitable with India already counting
250,000 new daily cases.Now, with the death toll mounting, his Hindu
nationalist government is trying to quell critical voices.On Saturday,
Twitter complied with the government’s request and prevented people in
India from viewing more than 50 tweets that appeared to criticize the
administration’s handling of the pandemic. The targeted posts include
tweets from opposition ministers critical of Modi, journalists, and
ordinary Indians.A Twitter spokesperson said it had powers to “withhold
access to the content in India only” if the company determined the
content to be “illegal in a particular jurisdiction.” The company said
it had responded to an order by the government and notified people whose
tweets were withheld.India’s Information Technology Ministry did not
respond to a request for comment.Even with the targeted blocks, horrific
scenes of overwhelmed hospitals and cremation grounds spread on Twitter
and drew appeals for help.The US is actively looking at ways to boost
aid to India, including sending oxygen supplies, virus tests, drug
treatments and personal protective equipment.Dr. Anthony Fauci, the
Biden administration’s top medical adviser on the pandemic, told ABC’s
“This Week” that the US would review how to increase India’s vaccine
supply, such as by sending doses or helping India “to essentially make
vaccines themselves.”The White House said national security adviser Jake
Sullivan spoke by phone Sunday with his Indian counterpart, Ajit Doval,
and that the US is ”working around the clock” to send supplies.Help and
support were also offered from archrival Pakistan, with politicians,
journalists and citizens in the neighboring country expressing
solidarity. Pakistan’s Foreign Affairs Ministry said it offered to
provide relief including ventilators, oxygen supply kits, digital X-ray
machines, PPE and related items.“Humanitarian issues require responses
beyond political consideration,” Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi
said.The Indian government did not immediately respond to Qureshi’s
statement.
Man admits to past missionary work, but says he
'repented'-Shock in Jerusalem community as rabbi outed as undercover
Christian missionary-Family supported by ultra-Orthodox community after
mother dies of cancer, father worked as scribe and mohel; investigators
say they faked being Jewish to move to Israel-By TOI staff-APR
26,21-Today, 4:08 am
An ultra-Orthodox Jewish community in
Jerusalem’s French Hill neighborhood was in shock on Sunday after a
prominent member of the community was reportedly outed as an undercover
Christian missionary.Beyneynu, a non-profit organization that monitors
missionary activity in Israel, said Sunday that it had been
“investigating the case of a covert missionary in French Hill for many
years,” but had acted to expose him now “due to one of the missionary’s
children proselytizing in school.”Hebrew media said the man, a rabbi,
who was not identified publically, had posed as a cohen (priest) and
worked as a scribe and a mohel, conducting ritual circumcisions.However,
it was discovered that the family was actually not Jewish, but from a
Christian family from New Jersey in the US, and had reportedly forged
documents to show they were Jewish in order to emigrate to Israel under
the Law of Return.“We are confident that the Jewish leaders will act
strongly against this threat, and quickly put protective measures in
place to protect the Jewish community,” Beyneynu said.The ultra-Orthodox
newspaper Behadrei Haredim reported that when the man’s recently
deceased wife became ill with cancer several years ago, she told friends
some things that did not make sense to them and sparked the
investigation.The wife had reportedly falsely claimed to be the daughter
of Holocaust survivors.Investigators discovered that the family’s
parents in the US were not Jewish and posting missionary material on
social media, the paper said. The man’s late father was buried in a
non-Jewish cemetery. An obituary identified him as a member of the
Friendship Mennonite Church.Beyneynu said it had “taken great care in
verifying each piece of evidence before exposing this case to the
public,” but did not detail the evidence“Until now we kept it quiet
because we did not want the father to move to another neighborhood (to
carry on his work,) and we wanted to work to get his citizenship
revoked,” Yoni Kayman, a community member involved in the investigation,
told Behadrei Haredim.Kayman said the father had also recently begun to
try and get rid of the evidence, deleting things on social media, and
had stopped sending his daughters to the local religious school, so they
decided to inform the community of his activities.Channel 13 news
broadcast clips from 2011 of the father speaking on US television,
acknowledging Jesus as the Messiah.Speaking to Channel 13, the man
denied he was working as an undercover Christian missionary.“It’s a lie,
I was born Jewish,” he said. However, he acknowledged working as a
missionary 7 or 8 years ago, but said he had “repented.”Community
members expressed shock, noting how involved the family was and the fact
that after the wife died, the community set up a fund for the family
and had been helping to support them.“The family looked completely
ultra-Orthodox, he had a long beard and a hat, the boys had side-curls,
the girls went to ‘Beis Ya’akov’ schools,” Kayman told Channel 13.“For
five years we have been supporting them, paying for their groceries,
school busses, for everything, and they deceived us,” he said.Israel
enjoys vigorous support from Christian evangelical movements in the
United States but keeps a lid on missionary work in the Holy Land.While
Israeli law only expressly forbids the giving of money or gifts to
encourage conversions to another religion, missionary activities, in
general, are closely monitored by the authorities and are offensive to
many Israelis.Also forbidden by law is “missionary or proselytizing
activity directed at minors without the permission of their parents.”
Netanyahu
said to offer Gantz to be prime minister first in new unity deal-Blue
and White leader turns down proposal, TV network reports, but PM is
considering offering same carrot to other leaders from bloc of parties
aiming to oust him-By Stuart Winer-APR 26,21-Today, 5:02 am
Prime
Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, running out of time to form a coalition,
has offered his former coalition partner Benny Gantz a rotation deal
with the Blue and White leader to serve first as prime minister, Channel
12 news reported Sunday.The offer would seem to indicate Netanyahu’s
growing desperation, given that the last government fell apart over
Netanyahu’s refusal to honor the coalition agreement with Gantz that
would have seen the defense minister take over as premier from
Netanyahu, later this year.Under the terms of the reported offer, Gantz
would be prime minister for the first year, after which Netanyahu would
return to lead the country for another two years, and then Gantz take
over again for a final year.During his terms as prime minister, Gantz
would continue to also serve as defense minister. Netanyahu would
continue to live at the prime minister’s official residence in Jerusalem
throughout the four years, the report said.The Likud idea of offering
Gantz a new rotation deal as prime minister was first reported last week
by Zman, the Times of Israel’s Hebrew-language sister site.Gantz
reportedly turned down the offer that was eventually made during a
Friday phone call, Channel 12 reported, telling Netanyahu “I don’t see
that as feasible.”The station assessed that though Gantz refused, in
line with his campaign promise to not join a Netanyahu-led government,
the offer is still tempting to him because it would enable him to
finally become prime minister, a development that has been all but
dashed by the collapse of the last unity government. However, were he to
accept, it would mark the second time that Gantz would break the same
election promise, having vowed to not enter a coalition with Netanyahu
before the previous elections as well.Netanyahu and Gantz formed their
doomed unity government after the March 2020 election, agreeing that
Netanyahu would serve first for two years and then Gantz takes over for
another two, which was scheduled to begin in November this year.
However, the unity government automatically dissolved at the end of the
year after failing to pass a state budget, a development that was widely
seen as orchestrated by Netanyahu to prevent Gantz from becoming prime
minister.Elections in March were inconclusive, just like the previous
three votes, with the Knesset divided between two blocs, a Netanyahu-led
group of right and religious parties facing others who want to see the
prime minister changed. Neither bloc has a majority in the Knesset and
both sides are engaged in negotiations to reach the minimum of 61 seats
needed for a majority in 120-seat Knesset.Though Gantz turned down
Netanyahu’s offer, the prime minister is considering making the same
proposal to the leaders of two other parties who are in talks with the
so-called “change bloc,” Yamina chief MK Naftali Bennett, and New Hope
leader MK Gideon Sa’ar, both Channel 12 and Channel 13 news stations
reported, without citing sources. Bennett, who is determined to become
prime minister himself, has not committed to either bloc while Sa’ar has
vowed to see Netanyahu ousted.In addition, Netanyahu is also said to be
considering suggesting the same arrangement with Knesset Speaker MK
Yariv Levin, a member of the Likud party that Netanyahu leads.Elevating
Levin to become prime minister would still leave Netanyahu in the
powerful position of the alternative prime minister as part of the
rotation arrangement and enable both Gantz and Sa’ar to join his
coalition, giving him the Knesset majority he needs.Netanyahu has just
another nine days to complete the task of building a government before
the mandate returns to President Reuven Rivlin who can then look at
other options, including tasking the next lawmaker in line, opposition
leader MK Yair Lapid whose Yesh Atid party is the largest in the bloc of
parties trying to replace Netanyahu.In the meantime, there has
reportedly been some progress in talks among the change bloc, which is
comprised of an assortment of left, center, and right-wing parties with
dramatically different world views on some key national issues. Lapid,
who wants there to be no more than 20 ministers in the government has
agreed to Bennett and Sa’ar’s demand that there be more, though just how
many is still disputed, Channel 13 reported.Bennett, for his part, has
given up on a demand that he have a double vote in the broader cabinet,
but is still insisting on that power in the top-level security cabinet,
Channel 13 reported.There are also disputes over the control of key
ministries. Though Channel 13 reported that there is agreement among the
parties that Gantz would remain defense minister the Kan public
broadcaster said that Sa’ar wants the post. The justice ministry is
being chased by New Hope, Yamina, and some of the left-wing parties in
the bloc, while the Labor and Yisrael Beytenu parties are haggling over
the Finance Ministry, Kan reported. Also, the Education Ministry is
being contested by New Hope and the left-wing Meretz party, according to
the station.A change bloc government would also be based on a rotation
of the premiership between Lapid and Bennett, according to Hebrew media
reports. However, Bennett is said to be facing reluctance from within
his own right-wing nationalist party to cooperating with Lapid, and some
of his Yamina’s seven lawmakers may not agree to join such a coalition,
Channel 12 reported. That would further hamper Lapid’s efforts to build
a viable coalition.Should no government be formed the country will head
to its fifth elections in two and half years.
In bid to stem
violent protests, police allow crowds at Old City’s Damascus Gate-Recent
evenings have seen intense clashes between Palestinians and law
enforcement in Jerusalem, as well as a far-right Jewish march-By TOI
staff and AFP-25 April 2021, 11:04 pm
Hundreds of Palestinians
celebrated at the Damascus Gate entrance to Jerusalem’s Old City on
Sunday evening after police halted a controversial policy that barred
Muslim worshipers from congregating in the area during the holy month of
Ramadan.Thousands of Palestinians had descended on the flashpoint area
each night since Ramadan began on April 13 to protest the policy, which
had seen the basin outside Damascus Gate filled with dozens of police
divider fences, along with armed officers ordered to prevent anyone from
sitting on the steps.Police Commissioner Kobi Shabtai told reporters
Saturday that it was a longstanding policy implemented annually by
officers in order to prevent crowding and allow for the free flow of
visitors in and out of the Old City on Ramadan.However, photos of
Damascus Gate from previous years that were posted on social media
showed the site packed with visitors and no police fences and roadblocks
around the basin outside the gate, as there have been this month.There
have been times in recent years when the fences were installed, but that
was done for a short amount of time, rather than for weeks on end.Asked
on Sunday to explain the discrepancy between photos of a packed
Damascus Gate from previous years and the comments by Shabtai that
longstanding policy has prevented crowding at the Old City entrance on
Ramadan, police declined to do so.Channel 12 spoke with a series of
former senior officials in the Israel Police, including
ex-commissioners, who called on Shabtai to scrap the policy as a
demonstration of good faith to Palestinians during the particularly
sensitive time of year.Shortly after the network’s report aired, Shabtai
ordered the scrapping of the policy.The decision came “following
consultations with local leadership, religious leadership, situation
assessments, while taking into consideration the shop owners who need to
make a living, and in order to lower the level of violence,” a police
spokesman told AFP.“Our forces are still deployed on the ground, and we
won’t let violence resurge,” the spokesman said.Hundreds of
Palestinians, including male youths who tossed the barricades to the
side, held celebratory rallies in the plaza, watched over by
police.Minor scuffles erupted after some of the revelers began waving
Palestinian flags, moves which prompted police to briefly move into the
plaza.AFP reporters saw several young Palestinians being detained by
police. Police said Monday morning that 12 people were arrested
overnight for throwing rocks and glass bottles at cops or for assaulting
passersby.But the plaza remained open, with police maintaining a heavy
presence in the area into Monday’s early hours.Footage from Damascus
Gate showed the area packed with visitors, as it had been in previous
years, cheering and whistling in victory.The atmosphere contrasted
starkly from that of previous nights, which have featured violent
clashes.More than 105 Palestinians were wounded late Thursday in clashes
with police who found themselves in the middle of the Arab
demonstrators and a mob of hundreds of Jewish extremists marching toward
Damascus Gate, chanting “Death to Arabs,” “May your village burn,” and
other hateful slogans.Police used riot dispersal measures against both
crowds, but reserved more severe means, including rubber bullets, for
the Palestinian mob.The Hamas terror group in Gaza, which has been
firing rockets into Israel for the last three nights, allegedly in
response to the clashes in Jerusalem, hailed the decision to remove the
barriers as a victory for the “Palestinian youths against the
occupation.”Jerusalem has also seen a series of viral videos on the
social network TikTok, which appear to show Palestinians attacking
ultra-Orthodox Jews without any provocation. The clips have fueled
Jewish anger.The racist Lehava group, which led the Jewish protests,
said in a statement that it would not be reconvening outside Damascus
Gate on Sunday night, and instead would be offering Krav Maga classes
for its activists. However, the group said that it would be prepared to
take to the streets “to protect Jews, if police failed to do their
job.”Earlier Sunday evening, three Arab sanitation workers were attacked
by a group of Jewish youths on Ben Sira Street in downtown
Jerusalem.One of the suspects was arrested, police said, adding that
they found a knife on him. Officers were engaging in a manhunt for the
remaining assailants.Hours earlier, a Jewish Israeli distributing
religious booklets at a junction outside the mixed town of Ramle was
assaulted by an Arab teen. The 19-year-old suspect was apprehended
shortly thereafter by police.The victim received treatment for minor
injuries at nearby Assaf Harofeh Medical Center..

Zarif criticized Soleimani’s power, said Russia
tried to sabotage Iran nuke deal-In leaks from interview last year,
minister says he was often kept in dark as IRGC dictated policy, was
‘astonished’ when US told him of Israeli strikes on Iranian targets in
Syria-By TOI staff-APR 26,21-Today, 9:02 am
Iranian Foreign
Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif criticized the power of Qassem Soleimani
in leaks published Sunday from an interview he gave last year, saying
the assassinated head of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps had been
setting Tehran’s policy.Zarif said that Soleimani had worked with Russia
to sabotage the nuclear deal and acted in Syria’s long-running war in a
way that damaged Tehran’s interests, as well as undermining him on a
number of occasions, the New York Times reported.“In the Islamic
Republic the military field rules,” Zarif said. “I have sacrificed
diplomacy for the military field rather than the field servicing
diplomacy.”The extracts also suggested Soleimani refused to listen to a
request by the Foreign Ministry that Tehran show less overt support for
Syrian leader Bashar Assad, including not using state airline Iran Air
to transport military equipment and personnel to Syria and not deploying
ground forces to the war-torn country.Zarif also criticized Soleimani
for allowing Russian planes to fly over Iran on their way to bomb
Syria.Zarif said that he was often kept in the dark about security
matters, and that “to his astonishment,” former US Secretary of State
John Kerry told him that Israel had attacked Iranian interests in Syria
at least 200 times.The Times did not clarify when the conversation
between the two officials took place.The Israel Defense Forces has
launched hundreds of strikes in Syria since the start of the civil war
in 2011 against moves by Iran to establish a permanent military presence
in the country and efforts to transport advanced, game-changing weapons
to terrorist groups in the region, principally Hezbollah.Zarif made the
comments in an hours-long taped conversation that took place last March
as part of an oral history project. A copy was leaked to the UK-based
Persian language news channel Iran International, which is viewed as
hostile to Iran and is owned by Saudi Arabians.According to the Times,
Zarif can be heard on a number of occasions in the interview emphasizing
that his words were not for publication.Zarif also claimed that
Soleimani traveled to Moscow to “demolish our achievement” and try to
stop Russia’s support for the nuclear deal struck with world powers.He
also said that Russia did not want the deal to succeed as that would
result in Tehran normalizing relations with the West, and therefore
Moscow “put all its weight” behind placing obstacles on the path to the
agreement.According to the Guardian, which did not publish direct quotes
from the interview, Zarif said that “forces inside Iran” tried to
prevent the passage of the 2015 nuclear agreement through a number of
methods, including an attack on the Saudi embassy.Zarif reportedly
described the IRGC’s influence on foreign policy as “akin to a cold
war,” the Guardian reported, adding that the top Iranian envoy claimed
he spent more of his time dealing with the organization than with any
other tasks.Zarif said that when the IRGC shot down a Ukrainian
airliner, killing all on board, he attended a meeting with security
officials who attacked him and told him that it was not true that Iran
had downed the plane.He said he was told to send a tweet denying the
Guard had shot down the plane, despite the IRGC immediately knowing what
had happened.According to the Times, Zarif did praise Soleimani at
times during the interview, saying they successfully worked together
ahead of the United States invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan, and the
Iranian envoy said that the US assassination of Soleimani caused more
damage than the wiping out of a city.The US killed Soleimani, who
oversaw the Revolutionary Guard’s expeditionary Quds Force, and others
in the January 3, 2020, strike near Baghdad International Air.Soleimani
was for years seen as the architect of much of Iran’s malign activities
in the Middle East, including attempts to place a foothold in Syria and
rocket attacks on Israel, making him one of Israel and the US’s most
sought-after targets.The strike on Soleimani came after months of
incidents raising tensions between the two countries and saw Iran
retaliate with a ballistic missile strike targeting American troops in
Iraq, an attack Zarif said the United States knew of before he did.The
leaks came at a sensitive time, with Iran currently engaged in indirect
talks with the US, mediated by Europe in Vienna, aimed at reviving the
nuclear pact, even as it enriches uranium to its highest-ever
levels.Iran’s Foreign Ministry admitted that Zarif gave the interview,
but said that his words had been distorted through the use of selective
quotes, the Guardian reported.Saeed Khatibzadeh, a spokesman for the
ministry, called the leak “unethical politics.”Former Vice President
Mohammad Ali Abtahi said that the publication of Zarif’s comments was
“tantamount to Israel stealing the nuclear documents” from Iran.In 2018,
the Mossad spirited a huge trove of documentation out of a warehouse in
Tehran, detailing Iran’s rogue nuclear program.

ATTACK ON AM
After 3rd straight night of rocket attacks, Israel
closes Gaza fishing zone-After initially restricting fishermen to
sailing within 9 miles of the coast, Israel’s military liaison to
Palestinians announces total closure as launches continue from Strip-By
Judah Ari Gross-APR 26,21-Today, 7:18 am
Israel fully closed the
Gaza fishing zone on Monday morning, forbidding Palestinians from
sailing off the coast of the beleaguered enclave, after terrorists in
the Strip launched five rockets toward southern Israel overnight.It was
the third straight night of rocket attacks from Gaza, raising the
specter of wider conflict in the restive region.The closing of the
fishing zone appeared to be Israel’s sole retaliation to the rocket
attacks, with the Israel Defense Forces refraining from conducting
airstrikes on the Hamas terror group in the Strip — its usual response
to rocket fire.The launches began at 10:45 p.m., with a rocket that
struck an open field near the Gaza border, without triggering alarms in
populated areas. Roughly an hour later, a second rocket was fired toward
southern Israel, but it failed to clear the border and landed inside
the Strip, according to the army.Shortly after 3 a.m., terrorists in
Gaza launched three rockets toward the town of Sderot and the
surrounding area, triggering sirens in the communities. Two of these
were intercepted by the Iron Dome missile defense system; the third
landed inside Gaza, the Israel Defense Forces said.Four people,
including a pregnant woman, were lightly wounded after falling while
running to bomb shelters in that attack, medics said.After the initial
two attacks, Israel’s military liaison to the Palestinians — known
formally as the Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories
(COGAT) — announced that the military was restricting the Gaza fishing
zone from its usual 15 nautical miles to nine nautical miles in light of
the attacks.However, after the third round of rocket launches in the
predawn hours of Monday morning, the liaison Maj. Gen. Ghassan Alian
announced that beginning at 6 a.m. on Monday, Israel was closing off the
Gaza coast to Palestinian fishermen entirely.“This is because of the
continued rocket fire from the Gaza Strip at Israeli territory during
the night,” COGAT said in a statement.“Hamas bears responsibility for
everything that happens in or originates from the Gaza Strip against
Israel, and it will bear the consequences for the violence directed
against Israeli citizens,” Alian said.Fishing is a significant source of
revenue for the enclave. The size of the fishing zone has varied over
the years. It was set at 20 nautical miles by the Oslo peace accords in
the 1990s before being reduced to six miles under the joint
Israeli-Egyptian blockade imposed after Hamas took over the Strip in a
violent coup against the Fatah-controlled Palestinian Authority in
2007.Israel has raised and lowered the limit several times in recent
years in a bid to pressure Hamas, the de facto ruler of the Gaza
Strip.The attacks on Sunday night and Monday morning came after Gazan
terrorist groups launched over 40 rockets into Israel over the weekend.
On Saturday, a number of Palestinian terror groups fired experimental
rockets toward the Mediterranean Sea as a show of force.Palestinian
terror groups have said that the weekend’s rocket attacks were in
response to ongoing unrest in Jerusalem, where Arab residents have
demonstrated for several days against Ramadan restrictions on
congregating near Jerusalem’s Damascus Gate. Those restrictions were
lifted by police just over an hour before the rocket was fired, leading
to some speculation that the launch had been a “celebratory”
measure.Rockets are fired toward the sea during a military drill by
members of the Mujahideen Brigades, the armed wing of the Palestinian
movement of the same name, along a beach off of Gaza City, on April 24,
2021. (MAHMUD HAMS / AFP)-Two Gaza factions, the Popular Front for the
Liberation of Palestine and a branch of Fatah’s Al-Aqsa Martyrs’
Brigades, claimed responsibility for the Friday-Saturday rocket fire.
But Israel holds Hamas directly responsible for all fire from the
enclave into Israeli territory, charging that it takes place with the
terror group’s consent.The Hamas leadership earlier Sunday called East
Jerusalemites to continue “mobilizing in the Old City and at its gates.”
Hamas also said night patrols of Palestinians ought to be formed to
protect East Jerusalem residents from assaults by Jewish extremists.The
widening circle of clashes has sparked concerns in Israel that the
situation could escalate across the West Bank and Gaza.Prime Minister
Benjamin Netanyahu called Saturday for the military to “prepare for any
scenario” with Gaza. Defense Minister Benny Gantz similarly said that
the Israel Defense Forces “will do what is necessary so the calm is
preserved,” following security consultations at defense headquarters in
Tel Aviv.The Israeli military notably refrained from conducting
retaliatory strikes in the Gaza Strip on Saturday night as well as on
Sunday night, in an apparent bid to ease tensions. Israel normally
adopts a tit-for-tat strategy, responding to Gazan rocket fire by
shelling Hamas observation posts or imposing restrictions on the Gaza
Strip.Times of Israel staff contributed to this report.
Rockets
fired from Gaza for 3rd night, 4 lightly hurt running for shelter-Iron
Dome intercepts two rockets; Israel to restrict Gaza fishing zone in
response to rockets as armed groups in coastal enclave continue to ramp
up tensions-By TOI staff-25 April 2021, 11:29 pm
Terrorists in
Gaza fired rockets toward Israel for the third night in a row on Sunday
and early Monday, with the Iron Dome system intercepting two of
them.Four people, including a pregnant woman, were lightly wounded after
falling while running to bomb shelters early Monday, medics said.A
first projectile was detected by the Israel Defense Forces, which said
it only set off red alert sires in an open area where it evidently fell.
A second rocket landed inside Gaza near the security fence.Just after
3. a.m, three more rockets were fired, with the Iron Dome system
intercepting two of them. A third fell inside Gaza, the army said.The
launches came hours after the Gaza-ruling Hamas issued a statement
calling on “our noble resistance in Gaza to keep their fingers on the
trigger, to keep their rockets on standby to target the enemy’s
fortresses and military and vital structures.”Just after midnight
Sunday, the Israeli military announced that it would be restricting the
fishing zone off the Gaza coast from 15 to 9 nautical miles, starting at
6 a.m. Monday until further notice.“The decision was made in light of
repeated terrorist acts from the Gaza Strip against the citizens of the
State of Israel during the recent days, which constitute a violation of
Israeli sovereignty,” said a statement from the Coordinator of
Government Activities in the Territories, which is the branch of the
Defense Ministry responsible for liaising with the Palestinians.“Hamas
is held accountable for all that is done in and from the Gaza Strip
towards Israel, and it will bear the consequences for the violence
committed against the citizens of the State of Israel, the statement
said.Fishing is a significant source of revenue for the enclave. The

Expert: Last week’s
‘blast’ in central Israel was a solid rocket fuel test-American
professor bases assessment on satellite images, similar trials in other
parts of the world-By Judah Ari Gross-25 April 2021, 4:50 pm
The
mysterious blast seen in central Israel last week was, in fact, a test
of solid rocket fuel at a secretive Israeli defense facility, according
to an American nuclear nonproliferation expert.Jeffrey Lewis, a
professor at Middlebury Institute of International Studies and
self-described “arms control wonk,” made his assessment based on
satellite images of the site and video footage of similar tests from
elsewhere in the world, publishing his findings on his website on
Friday.Last Tuesday, a Twitter user uploaded a video of the incident,
showing a sudden massive blast of fire and smoke south of Kibbutz
Mishmar David in central Israel, in the vicinity of the government-owned
Tomer defense contractor, which manufactures propulsion systems for a
variety of Israel’s rockets and missiles. This led to widespread
speculation that the explosion was caused by Iranian sabotage as
retaliation for a recent attack on the Islamic Republic’s Natanz nuclear
facility, which was widely attributed to Israel.When asked about the
incident, a spokesperson for Tomer denied that an accidental blast had
taken place, maintaining that the fire and smoke were caused by a
“controlled test,” but refusing to elaborate further.According to Lewis,
the blast was in fact the controlled, directed explosion of a solid
fuel rocket test.The "explosion" video was posted on April 20. Satellite
images captured by our friends at @planetlabs show a large burn scar
that appeared on the same day at the test stand. I false-colored a pair
of near-infrared images to reveal the scorched vegetation. (6/12)
pic.twitter.com/QuBo7848Kh — Dr. Jeffrey Lewis (@ArmsControlWonk) April
23, 2021“There is a low rumble during the burn. And it seems to
extinguish after a few seconds. At the James Martin Center for
Nonproliferation Studies, we spend a lot of time looking at missiles.
This event looks and sounds much more like the last few seconds of a
test of a solid-propellent rocket motor than an explosion,” Lewis wrote
in an article on his website.Lewis and his colleagues reviewed satellite
images of the area where Israel is known to test rocket motors and
found that a large burn scar appeared on the day in question, one
similar to those found after solid rocket fuel tests. They then cross
referenced the images with the location data from the video, determining
that the blast in the footage and the burn scar were in the same
place.“So, in the end, it is pretty clear to me that someone in Mishmar
David recorded the last few seconds of a solid rocket motor test,” Lewis
wrote.The weapons expert questioned why Tomer decided to be cagey in
its response instead of acknowledging the nature of the test, especially
when it openly produces rocket motors for well-known, non-controversial
Israeli missiles, including the Arrow 2 and Arrow 3 air defense systems
and the Shavit satellite launcher.“Why didn’t Tomer just say it was a
solid rocket motor test? The fact that Israel produces large solid
rocket motors for, among other systems, the Shavit space launch vehicle
is no secret. There isn’t really any reason to be coy, it’s just… a
habit. A culture that evolved in a past era and has yet to adapt to the
current one,” Lewis said.
Iraqis blame hospital fire on
mismanagement as health minister suspended-Death of over 80 people in a
Baghdad COVID-19 hospital blaze seen as further proof of deadly
consequences of corruption-By Sarah Benhaida and Ammar Karim-25 April
2021, 4:28 pm
BAGHDAD, Iraq (AFP) — The death of over 80 people
in a Baghdad Covid-19 hospital fire was seen by Iraqis Sunday as more
proof of the deadly consequences of mismanagement and corruption.Iraqis,
some of whom evacuated the injured themselves, blamed Health Minister
Hassan al-Tamimi, who was suspended Sunday, with calls for him to be
sacked resounding across social media.The deadly inferno broke out
overnight Sunday at Baghdad’s Ibn al-Khatib hospital, blamed on poorly
stored oxygen cylinders.The interior ministry said 82 people were killed
and 110 people injured.An official with the Iraqi Human Rights
Commission said 28 of those killed were patients who were taken off
critical ventilators to escape the flames.The evacuation was slow,
painful and chaotic, with patients and their relatives crammed into
stairwells as they scrambled for exits.President Barham Saleh tweeted on
Sunday “the tragedy at Ibn al-Khatib is the result of years of erosion
of state institutions by corruption and mismanagement.”A doctor at the
hospital said that “in the whole Covid intensive care unit, there were
no emergency exits or fire prevention systems.”Witnesses and doctors
told AFP many bodies had yet to be identified, the remains too charred
by the intense flames.‘Mismanagement’ to blame“It’s mismanagement that
killed these people,” the doctor added, who, on condition of anonymity,
angrily listed the hospital’s many shortcomings.“Managers walk around
smoking in the hospital where oxygen cylinders are stored,” he said.
“Even in intensive care, there are always two or three friends or
relatives at a patient’s bedside.”And, he added, “this doesn’t just
happen at Ibn al-Khatib, it’s like this in all the public
hospitals.”“When equipment breaks down, our director tells us not to
report it,” said a nurse, in another hospital in Baghdad. “He says it
would give a bad image of his establishment, but in reality, we have
nothing that works.”These institutions — which until the 1980s were the
pride of Iraq, known across the Arab world for its free, high quality
public health services — are now seen as an embarrassment by many.Their
equipment is outdated, staff are poorly trained and buildings
crumbling.In Iraq, the health sector only accounts for two percent of
the budget, despite the country being one of the most oil-rich in the
world.These issues were raised in a 2017 public report on the Iraqi
health sector.According to the World Health Organization (WHO), Iraq
only has 13 hospital beds and eight doctors for every 10,000 people.
Forty years ago, there were 19 beds per person.Moreover, with corruption
rife and the drug market unregulated, speculation has driven prices
through the roof.From oxygen cylinders to vitamin C tablets, prices have
risen threefold or more since the start of the coronavirus
pandemic.-Iraqis fend for themselves-Many Iraqis have long opted to go
abroad for operations and treatment, mainly to neighboring Iran and
Syria, where currency devaluations in recent years have upped their
purchasing power.For Iraqis, thousands of whom protested for months
starting in October 2019 against widespread corruption, the breakdown of
public services is the direct result of years of nepotism and political
self-preservation.On Sunday, Iraqis questioned if the suspended health
minister would be sacked, because he is backed by the powerful Shiite
Muslim leader Moqtada Sadr.Local and hospital officials have already
been suspended over the fire and are being questioned, but they are only
scapegoats, angry social media users say.In the face of an intransigent
status quo and leaders they consider “corrupt” and “incompetent,”
Iraqis have long fended for themselves.As the fire raged Sunday, it was
young men, bare-chested with their shirts as face masks against the
acrid smoke, who pulled the injured from the burning building, loaded
ambulances and helped survivors escape.

Most workers at NY nursing homes aren’t getting COVID-19 vaccine-By Carl Campanile, Bernadette Hogan, Kevin Sheehan and Bruce Golding-January 26, 2021 | 7:44pm2
So few staffers at one Queens nursing home have opted to receive the COVID-19 vaccine, that the facility on Tuesday warned its workers to get their shots now — or wait their turn like everyone else.Across the Empire State, vaccines have been administered to only about 44 percent of all employees at long-term care facilities, according to state officials.But at the Holliswood Center for Rehabilitation and Healthcare, the vaccination rate among staff was at about 17 percent at the start of the week, officials said.That was expected to go up Tuesday, with workers telling the Post they faced a deadline to sign up for inoculations.“If we don’t get it today, they’re saying we have to wait until it’s open to the general public,” one worker said.Three employees said that between 25 and 50 of their colleagues lined up Tuesday to get the shots.But some workers said they had no intention of doing so themselves.“No, I ‘ain’t taking it! Hell no! Why? I don’t trust the government!” one man said.The 44 percent of long-term care workers now inoculated statewide is up slightly from the 37 percent that Cuomo reported on Jan. 18. Nursing home workers and residents were among the first in the state eligible to receive the vaccine.“We are concerned. It’s an extraordinary concern,” Gareth Rhodes, a member of Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s COVID-19 Response Task Force, told The Post.By comparison, 72 percent of the state’s healthcare workers have been vaccinated, Cuomo said on Monday.Cuomo has threatened to reallocate the unused nursing home vaccines so they can be given to the general public, but Rhodes declined to say when that might happen.In July, state officials blamed infected workers for spreading the coronavirus among nursing home residents, whose official death toll from COVID-19 is now more than 8,000.Holliswood has 21 confirmed resident deaths from COVID-19, and another 40 suspected — a total that’s about 20 percent of its 314-bed capacity, according to official state figures.The nursing home is owned by Centers Health Care, which lists 51 facilities in New York, New Jersey and Rhode Island on its website.A spokesman, Jeff Jacomowitz, acknowledged that the vaccination rate for workers at its New York City nursing homes was just 16 percent.But Jacomowitz said the company wasn’t trying to pressure its employees into getting inoculated.“By New York state law, we cannot make someone get vaccinated,” he said.

Trump officially opens ‘Office of the Former President-By Kenneth Garger-January 25, 2021 | 8:40pm | Updated
Former President Donald Trump has officially opened an office in Florida that will serve to continue his political agenda.A statement from the office Monday night said it will manage Trump’s correspondence, public statements, appearances and official activities to “advance the interest of the United States.”The office will also “carry on the agenda of the Trump Administration through advocacy, organizing, and public activism,” the statement says.The move comes less than a week after Trump left the Oval Office.Last Friday, Trump said he will make a comeback in some form, but did not specify how.“We’ll do something, but not just yet,” Trump told journalist Rob Crilly of the Washington Examiner.
45 GOP senators including McConnell vote to toss Trump impeachment trial as unconstitutional-By Ebony Bowden-January 26, 2021 | 4:53pm | Updated
WASHINGTON — Forty-five Republican Senators on Tuesday voted that former President Donald Trump’s upcoming impeachment trial is unconstitutional, suggesting that he will almost certainly be acquitted for a second time.GOP Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky forced a Senate vote on a motion to dismiss the trial, arguing the impeachment proceedings would be unconstitutional since Trump is now a private citizen.The vast majority of Republicans in the upper chamber, 45 of them, agreed, including Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell, who has criticized Trump in the wake of the Jan. 6 siege on the US Capitol that he is accused of inciting.The Senate requires a two-thirds majority to convict, meaning 17 Republicans would need to vote with Democrats — a seemingly unlikely outcome as the Tuesday day vote indicates.Just five Republican Senators broke with their party on Tuesday afternoon and voted with Democrats to allow President Trump’s impeachment trial to proceed, but the Paul measure was still blocked on a 55-45 vote.GOP Sens. Mitt Romney of Utah, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, Susan Collins of Maine, Ben Sasse of Nebraska and Pat Toomey of Pennsylvania, who is serving his last term, crossed the aisle.Romney was the only Republican to vote to convict Trump on the abuse of power charge during his previous impeachment trial.Ten GOP lawmakers also sided with Democrats to impeach Trump in the House in a 232-197 vote on Jan. 13.Despite the motion being blocked, Republicans are considering Tuesday’s defeat a victory.If less than 34 lawmakers sided with Paul, it would have suggested that Trump may have been convicted, but he easily reached that threshold.Paul told reporters that the vote meant the impeachment trial would be “dead on arrival.”In a fiery speech on the Senate floor Tuesday, Paul said Democrats’ calls for unity were hollow and that the impeachment of a former president and private citizen were “the antithesis of unity.”“Private citizens don’t get impeached; impeachment is for removal from office. And the accused here has already left office,” Paul said.“Hyper-partisan Democrats are about to drag our great country down into the gutter of rancor and vitriol the likes of which has never been seen in our nation’s history,” he went on.All 100 Senators were sworn-in on Tuesday afternoon as jurors in Trump’s second impeachment trial which will be overseen by Democratic Sen. Patrick Leahy of Vermont and not Supreme Court Justice John Roberts since Trump is no longer president.
Trump asked Justice Department to go to Supreme Court to overturn election: WSJ-January 25, 2021
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – Former President Donald Trump considered replacing the acting attorney general with an official willing to pursue unsubstantiated claims of election fraud, and he pushed the Justice Department to ask the Supreme Court to invalidate President Joe Biden’s victory, the Wall Street Journal reported on Saturday.Citing people familiar with the matter, the Journal said the efforts in the last weeks of Trump’s presidency failed because of resistance from his Justice appointees who refused to file what they viewed as a legally baseless lawsuit in the Supreme Court.Other senior department officials later threatened to resign if Trump fired then-acting Attorney General Jeffrey Rosen, several people familiar with the discussions told the Journal.The Justice Department did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Reuters on Saturday.Senior officials including Rosen, former Attorney General William Barr and former acting Solicitor General Jeffrey Wall refused to file the Supreme Court case, concluding there was no basis to challenge the election outcome and the federal government had no legal interest in whether Trump or Biden won the presidency, some of these people told the Journal.Then-White House counsel Pat Cipollone and his deputy, Patrick Philbin, also opposed Trump’s idea, which was promoted by his outside attorneys, these people said.After his Supreme Court plan got nowhere, Trump explored replacing Rosen with Jeffrey Clark, a Trump ally who had expressed a willingness to use the department’s power to help Trump continue his unsuccessful legal battles contesting the election results, the people told the Journal.Trump backed off that plan after the threats from senior Justice Department leadership to resign if Rosen were removed, people familiar with the discussions said.The plan to oust Rosen was first reported by the New York Times.A Trump adviser, asked to respond to the U.S. media reports, said the former president “has consistently argued that our justice system should be investigating the broader, rampant election fraud that has plagued our system for years. Any assertion to the contrary is false and being driven by those who wish to keep the system broken.”Democrats reacted with fury on Saturday to the New York Times’ report, with Senator Richard Durbin, incoming chairman of the Judiciary Committee, saying he would investigate efforts to use the Justice Department to further Trump’s efforts to overthrow the election results. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer calling on the department’s inspector general, Michael E. Horowitz, to investigate “this attempted sedition.”Trump’s relentless and baseless claims of election fraud – and his refusal to acknowledge Biden’s victory – culminated on Jan. 6 when Trump urged a rally of his supporters to march to the Capitol to protest the certification of the results. The resulting rampage led to five deaths, including a Capitol police officer.The Democratic-controlled House of Representatives impeached Trump for a second time a week later for inciting the insurrection at the Capitol, and a Senate trial on the charge will begin the week of Feb. 8. Biden took office on Wednesday.(Reporting by Timothy Gardner and John Whitesides; Editing by Colleen Jenkins and Daniel Wallis)
“YOU SHOULD BE IMPEACHED! You Pelosi, Nadler, Schiff!” – Rudy Giuliani DESTROYS Democrats’ Illegitimate Impeachment of Donald Trump-By Joe Hoft-Published January 26, 2021 at 9:11am
The corrupt and seditious Democrats are again projecting. This time they are claiming President Trump committed sedition when he claimed the stolen 2020 election was stolen.The Democrats are getting much worse. They have always projected their faults and crimes on fellow Americans but now they really believe what they are saying. For example, the Democrats claim President Trump and his supporters are racists yet they are the only party in the world today that supported slavery, the Klu Klux Klan and segregation. They still support segregation today in demanding white males, females and children give up their ‘privilege’.Democrats and foreign agents interfered in the 2020 election. We found proof. The Democrats pushed absentee ballots and violated laws. But the law requires that these changes be made in the legislatures not by far left politicians.China and other foreign entities interfered in our election and Democrats have yet to acknowledge this:The Democrats and their allies are actively censoring discussion of the election being interfered with and the numerous anomalies and what are likely fraudulent acts that occurred. Instead of looking at their own seditious acts, they blame President Trump for being seditious.Rudy Giuliani released his most recent ‘Common Sense’ discussion and he discussed the upcoming impeachment going to the Senate. The Democrats base their reasoning, not on evidence, but on their feelings. They claim Trump supporters, after hearing the President’s speech on January 6th, stormed the Capitol. But they provide no support for such allegations.The President was still speaking when the Capitol was breached. We don’t know if all of the people who went into the Capitol even committed a crime by doing so. Many were let in the Capitol. We do know Antifa was there inside the Capitol and Antifa members were breaking glass in the Capitol and they were all around Ashli Babbitt when she was shot dead by a Capitol policeman:Rudy says it was very cold that day and they all wanted to go back to their rooms it was so cold. The walk to the Capitol from where President Trump spoke was about a 40 minute walk.The Democrats have not provided one individual who listened to the President’s speech and then went inside the Capitol and threatened Congress and damaged property.The Democrats call President Trump seditious for giving a speech about a stolen election. But Rudy shared the obvious (at the 17:30 mark below):How do you define the good, better or best American? The belief in the values of the Constitution, the Declaration of Independence to hold us together. Where’s the belief in this Constitution that says you shall impeach someone to remove them from office and then you have an impeachment to remove then someone who’s been removed? [Someone] who you attempted to impeach before and who was acquitted. And now it turns out it was a phony charge before.YOU SHOULD BE IMPEACHED! You Pelosi, Nadler, Schiff! And you should be tried after that for conspiracy to defraud the United States! And then we should see how much did Obama know – how much did Biden know? Oh and by the way, you’re impeaching a man who’s removed from office for not committing a crime and you just inaugurated a President where there is a hard drive showing 30 years of criminal activity and you censored that from the American people.WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO OUR COUNTRY? YOU’RE RIPPING IT APART. Prosecuting an impeachment to remove a man from office who’s been removed based on no allegation of a crime and not a single witness.Democrats believe free speech based on facts is not as good as accusations based on lies.
Add Virginia to the List of States Where a Forensic Audit of the 2020 Election Results is Absolutely Necessary-By Joe Hoft-Published January 26, 2021 at 1:30pm
President Trump was winning the race in Virginia all night on election day. Every report showed the President way up in the Presidential race. Then suddenly while the President was still ahead, Big Media declared Joe Biden the winner. A judges new ruling demands that this state have a forensic audit of results performed now.We’ve reported on Virginia’s questionable results in the 2020 election already. There were 378 separate entries or feeds related to the Presidential race in Virginia in the file obtained and shared around the web that originated from the New York Times on election night. Of these entries the first 125 entries reported in the NYT data feed related to Virginia were basically reasonable. The results varied in percentage of votes between Presidential candidates and appeared to be random with most votes going to President Trump. Up through this time (11:03 Eastern), President Trump was leading 52% to Biden’s 46%. At this time 3.3 million of the eventual 4.4 million votes had already been cast or about 75% of the vote was in. This is when things went off the rails.Overall three entries of over 300,000 votes were posted in the data base to Biden’s vote total. Two entries of over 300,000 votes were taken away. The same happened to President Trump’s totals but in much smaller amounts. Overall 851,000 votes were added to Biden’s totals and only 318,000 were awarded to President Trump between 11:14pm (Eastern) on November 3rd and 5:00am November 4th. This resulted in over half a million more votes net and 73% of the votes going to Biden during this time frame.After these entries noted above were recorded, nearly every entry made into the system for the Presidential election had the same proportion of votes of Biden to Trump.This is not reasonable – it’s impossible. There is nothing random about this. It is highly, highly unlikely that the results of all these entries would be at the same proportion. This too indicates fraud.We reported all of this on November 15th:Now a judge has ruled that Virginia should not have allowed any ballots counted in their results that were received up to three days after the election:There’s some fresh news from the “Where Were You in November” department this week. In Virginia, Republicans and Democrats have been continuing a feud in the courts over “emergency rules” passed by the Democrats to allow greater numbers of mail-in ballots to be counted during the last election. One of those changes allowed ballots arriving after election day and without a postage mark indicating when they were mailed to be counted. Now a circuit court judge has ruled that the rule in question violates state statutes and the practice will be banned in the future. The lawsuit leading to this decision was brought by the Public Interest Legal Foundation (PILF). This update comes from the Daily Caller.Virginia election officials claim no absentee ballots received after election day were added to the state’s totals but really, who knows? It’s time to request that a forensic audit performed by Jovan Pulitzer be performed in Virginia of all the ballots from the 2020 election. Something tells us that the results of this audit will show a different outcome than the current results reported by the state.

Reports: Biden to roll back President Trump’s crackdown of China-OAN Newsroom-UPDATED 4:30 PM PT – Monday, January 25, 2021
The Biden administration is reportedly planning to roll back President Trump’s crackdown on malicious Chinese practices.During a press briefing on Monday, White House spokesperson Jen Psaki said Joe Biden would start a review of President Trump’s policies towards China. This includes the recent delisting of Chinese telecom firms from the New York Stock Exchange for stealing U.S. technology.Tune in for a briefing with @PressSec Jen Psaki. https://t.co/dbxU3SVctI — The White House (@WhiteHouse) January 25, 2021-Critics speculated Biden would take a softer stance on China due to his corrupt business dealings with Beijing in the past.Psaki said Biden would take a more comprehensive approach to Chinese relations.“We’re starting from an approach of patience as it relates to our relationship with China,” Psaki said. “So that means we’re going to have consultations with our allies, we’re going to have consultations with Democrats and Republicans, and we’re going to allow the interagency process to work its way through, to review and assess how we should move forward with our relationship.”White House's Psaki says there is an ongoing review of US relations with China and that a "comprehensive strategy and a more comprehensive approach" are needed. — Steve Holland (@steveholland1) January 25, 2021-Psaki acknowledged the theft of U.S. technology by China, but she did not provide details on how Biden would counter such practices.
Sen. Cotton: China blackmailing Biden with sanctions-OAN Newsroom-UPDATED 8:15 AM PT – Sunday, January 24, 2021
Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) called out the Chinese Communist Party over their alleged attempt to blackmail the Biden administration. On the Senate floor Friday, Cotton urged Joe Biden to take action against our most persistent adversary.This came after China issued a slew of sanctions against nearly 30 Trump administration officials, including Secretary of State Mike Pompeo. Cotton noted the sanctions were put in place just moments after Biden took office.Moments after President Biden took office, China sanctioned 28 members of the outgoing administration. These sanctions were a warning, an attempt to blackmail Biden administration officials with personal financial ruin if they dare to stand up to the Chinese Communist Party. pic.twitter.com/QaYtO0d98G— Tom Cotton (@SenTomCotton) January 22, 2021“They’re not bluster. They are another step in China’s long-term campaign to coerce Americans at every level of government and business,” Cotton stated. “They are a direct attack on the independence of U.S. policy toward China and an attempt to blackmail the Biden administration with personal financial ruin in the future if they dare to stand up to the Chinese Communist Party.”Cotton called on Biden to denounce the “acts of intimidation” and treat them as a day-one assault. He urged the administration to issue sanctions against Chinese officials who are responsible for the blackmail efforts.However, many Republicans have speculated Biden will likely be soft on China, and Beijing even reportedly wanted him to win the 2020 election.
Report: 81 election fraud cases brought to courts, 30 active cases-OAN Newsroom-UPDATED 1:10 PM PT – Tuesday, January 26, 2021
The Alliance for Wise Energy Decisions has put together a comprehensive list of all of the court cases on election fraud brought forward in recent months.The group found there have been a total of 81 cases filed in Pennsylvania, Nevada, New Jersey, Montana, Minnesota, Michigan, Georgia, Arizona, Wisconsin, New Mexico, North Carolina, Iowa, Colorado, Texas, New York, Ohio and Washington D.C.Many of those that are still active were filed in the battleground states, where county totals were decided by just a handful of votes.The case brought by the President’s campaign against the Secretary of Pennsylvania entered it’s third round as the petitioner pushed for the state Supreme Court to consolidate and reconsider former rulings regarding the counting of thousands of ballots that were improperly cast, but counted anyway.2 ⚖️NEW: The Trump campaign is appealing its loss in PENNSYLVANIA fed dist ct yesterday to the 3rd Circuit pic.twitter.com/09itnRd7Nz — John Kruzel (@johnkruzel) November 22, 2020-The Nevada Republican Central Committee v. Clark County was filed in October and called for election officials to make voter records public as vote by mail processes led to a number of issues in the days following the election. In November, a judge ruled the county must reveal the number of ballots that were flagged due to signature issues, including signatures that were missing or unmatched.While a majority of the lawsuits were brought forth by the President and his team, pockets of voters from across the country became their own advocates, filing lawsuits against election officials and state leaders all on their own.One such group of voters in Georgia, many of whom doubled as poll tabulators and electors, filed suit detailing numerous instances of voting irregularities. A hearing was held in early January where the petitioners had the chance to bring their concerns forward.“It is clear from the video that the people’s business in this very important process that we all hold so dear in this democracy, called elections, a one man one vote, was conducted in secrecy, not in the open,” Bob Cheeley, attorney for the petitioner stated.Meanwhile in Arizona, two groups, “Mi Familia Vota” and “Arizona Coalition for Change” sued Secretary of State Katie Hobbs.The two groups ran voter registration drives and reported signing up more than 1,500 voters a week until last minute coronavirus restrictions brought their operations to a near standstill. They alleged Hobb’s deadline for registration violated their First Amendment right to free speech, and further violated the due process clause outlined in the 14th Amendment.Secretary of State Katie Hobbs will not appeal recent court order extending voter registration deadline to Oct. 23. She urges Arizonans to update or register as soon as possible, as a further court ruling remains possible. See statement below. pic.twitter.com/r5kiBEOKM6 — Secretary Katie Hobbs (@SecretaryHobbs) October 6, 2020-The report went on to say millions of Americans are disappointed with the U.S. judiciary system, with many concerned the issues of 2020 may come back to haunt voters just in time for the midterms.
Sen. Paul speaks out on alleged voting irregularities in 2020 election-OAN Newsroom-UPDATED 1:20 PM PT – Monday, January 25, 2021
Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) has continued to firmly assert that voter fraud occurred in the 2020 election. In an interview on Sunday, Paul said there were instances of people voting twice, dead people voting and illegal immigrants voting during the election.Paul also noted in several states, voting laws were unconstitutionally changed by secretary of states.“There were several states in which the law was changed by the secretary of state and not the state legislature. To me those are clearly unconstitutional, and I think there’s still a chance that those actually do finally work their way up to the Supreme Court,” Paul explained.Although Paul was outlining concerns millions of Americans have expressed, ABC talk show host George Stephanopoulous attempted to dismiss the claims as dishonest.“People coming from the liberal side like you, you immediately say everything is a lie instead of saying there are two sides to everything. Historically what would happen is if I said that I thought there was fraud, you would interview someone else that would say there wasn’t,” Paul stated. “But now you insert yourself in the middle and say the absolute fact is everything I’m saying is a lie.”I voted to certify the electors and seat the new President. It’s not about that anymore. They won’t even admit there is election fraud and want to pretend nothing happened. — Senator Rand Paul (@RandPaul) January 24, 2021-Paul’s rebuttal did not stop the former Clinton White House adviser’s attacks, prompting the Republican once again to call out the mainstream media.Despite liberal outlets animus towards claims of election fraud, Paul said he will be working to address alleged irregularities over the next two years.“In Wisconsin, tens of thousands of absentee votes had only the name on them and no address. Historically, those were thrown out, this time they weren’t. They made special accommodations because they said, ‘oh it’s pandemic and people forgot what their address was,’ so they changed the law after the fact,” Paul said. “That is wrong, that’s unconstitutional, and I plan on spending the next two years going around state to state and fixing these problems, and I wont be cast out by liberals in the media who say ‘there’s no evidence here and you’re a liar if you talk about election fraud,’ no, let’s have an open debate, it’s a free country.”Paul stressed that alleged irregularities need to be investigated in order to increase confidence in our elections.
Bloomberg: Biden sets new record taking dark money donations-OAN Newsroom-UPDATED 9:50 AM PT – Tuesday, January 26, 2021
Joe Biden’s 2020 campaign set a new record in dark money donations despite Democrat calls to end this questionable practice.According to Bloomberg News, Biden received $145 million from dark money donors last year, which includes anonymous donations through third-party mediators. By contrast, President Trump received only $28 million in such donations.Biden’s dark money haul beat out the previous record set by Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah) in 2012, who raked-in about $113 million in those donations.Democrats have railed against the use of dark money in politics because dark money groups do not have to reveal information on their donors. They have argued this makes it nearly impossible for voters to know who is funding political messaging and what the motivation behind those messages may be.In fact, Biden’s running mate, Kamala Harris, has cited dark money donations as a serious threat to U.S. democracy and justice.Eleven years ago today, #CitizensUnited opened the floodgates for unlimited dark money in our politics. Since then, corporations have doubled down on trying to drown out the voices of everyday people. To put families first, we need campaign finance reform.— Katie Porter (@katieporteroc) January 22, 2021-At the same time, Biden campaigned on banning certain non-profits from putting money into swaying elections and requiring organizations spending over $10,000 on elections to disclose its donors to the government.A Biden-affiliated PAC, Priorities USA, attempted to defend the influx of dark money by saying they had to use all options against President Trump.Despite dark money donations, President Trump outperformed Biden in terms of overall fundraising. He raises almost $2 billion compared to Biden’s $1.7 billion.
Biden signs record number of executive actions in first week-By Emily Jacobs-January 26, 2021 | 4:24pm | Updated
President Biden has signed a record 37 executive actions in his first week in office, and the exact number of executive orders is not known because the Federal Register has not been updated since Jan. 21.With just six days in office under his belt, the 46th commander-in-chief has issued more edicts in his first week than any of his predecessors.Executive orders are legally binding, and as a result, are published in the Federal Register. Executive actions, by contrast, are more often symbolic efforts to enact change.On Tuesday, Biden signed four items, all focused on “racial equity.”The first order directed the Department of Housing and Urban Development to address the issue of housing discrimination.The second action, which was also an order, instructed the Justice Department to not renew federal contracts with privately-run prisons.The third item, ordered the federal government to engage with tribal governments.The fourth action, which does not appear to have been an order, condemned anti-Asian bias, which saw a spike in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic.The president has signed 10 orders related to invoking the Defense Production Act and launching his COVID-19 response, and 15 orders that addressed other policy differences between Biden and his predecessor.Of those 15 orders, Biden halted construction of the southern border wall and the travel ban from countries with heightened terror concerns, two signature campaign proposals from former President Donald Trump.Other actions include rejoining the Paris Climate Agreement, which Trump withdrew the US from in 2017, as well as the World Health Organization, which Trump withdrew from due to the agency’s botched handling of the coronavirus pandemic.Biden has also signed orders extending moratoriums on evictions and foreclosures, and deferrals on student loan payments, as well as halting construction on the Keystone XL oil pipeline, counting non-citizens in the US census and strengthening workplace discrimination protections based on sex and gender.In another action, he called on Congress to grant permanent status to Dreamers as part of the Obama-era Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, which Trump challenged in court.Regarding his Covid-19 strategy, Biden has issued orders creating a pandemic testing board focused solely on increasing test availability nationwide, with a focus on schools, as well as requiring the Departments of Education and Health and Human Services to provide federal guidance on reopening, “with the goal of getting a majority of K-8 schools safely open in 100 days.”In the first hours of his presidency in January 2017, Trump signed a single executive order focused on “minimizing the economic burden” of the Affordable Care Act as his administration began work to repeal it.Additionally, then-White House chief of staff Reince Priebus issued a memo on the president’s first night in office directing an immediate “regulatory freeze,” preventing federal agencies from implementing or issuing any new regulations.A Biden administration spokesperson did not immediately respond to The Post’s request for comment on the record number of executive orders.
