Gulf of Mexico ‘Dead Zone’ May Triple in Size, Could Become the ‘Largest Ever Recorded’
“Researchers measuring the ‘dead zone’ in the Gulf of Mexico say it is currently about 3,300 square miles but some scientists say it could become much larger.
The so-called ‘dead zone,’ caused by nitrogen levels in the gulf related to human activities such as agricultural runoff, occurs when oxygen levels in seawater drop to dangerously low levels, causing severe hypoxia that can potentially result in fish kills and harm marine life.
Researchers from Texas A&M University say the size of the dead zone off coastal Louisiana has been routinely monitored for about 25 years while nitrogen levels in the gulf resulting from human activities have tripled over the past 50 years.
Some researchers predict the dead zone could exceed 9,400 square miles this year, which would make it one of the largest ever recorded.” Read more.
UN Reports Measles Outbreaks in Ethiopia and Kenya – Dozens of Children Killed, Thousands Sickened
“GENEVA — United Nations officials say outbreaks of measles in Ethiopia and Kenya have killed dozens of children and sickened thousands of others.
UNICEF spokeswoman Marixie Mercado said Friday at least 17,584 measles cases, including 114 deaths, have been reported by Ethiopian health officials in the first half of the year.
World Health Organization spokesman Tarek Jasarevic says at least 462 cases of measles, including 11 deaths, have been confirmed in recent months among Somali refugee children in the Kenyan refugee complex known as Dadaab.
He says 2 million children in Ethiopia are at risk of contracting measles.” Read more.
Philippines: 81 Typhoid Cases in Cebu Town Puzzles Authorities
“CEBU, Philippines – The 81 cases of typhoid fever reported in one barangay of the town of Alegria in the southwestern side of Cebu have puzzled health officials.
The Integrated Provincial Health Office (IPHO) is trying to find out what caused the outbreak in Barangay Valencia.
Alegria has a total of 9 barangays, but only residents of Valencia have been affected.
Provincial Health Officer Cristina Giango said that of the 81 cases, 27 are confined at the Badian District Hospital and in Reinhard Hospital in Alegria.
She said that their personnel are already in Alegria since last Saturday to distribute medicine and conduct health education.
Jen Lerio, head nurse of the Alegria Rural Health Unit, told The FREEMAN that typhoid fever is a waterborne disease which is usually acquired when one drinks contaminated water.
Octavios Acebo, the municipal sanitary inspector, said that they conducted a water test on July 5 and the result showed it was negative of Escherichia coli or Ecoli bacteria.
Ecoli bacteria are commonly found in the lower intestine of warm-blooded organisms including humans. These bacteria can cause serious illness, which eventually lead to death if not treated immediately.” Read more.
2010 the Worst Year to Date for the Christian Community in Iraq
“Baghdad (AsiaNews) – The year 2010 was the worst year to date for the Christian community in Iraq, it has been revealed by the organization for human rights in Iraq, Hammurabi. Many Christians were forced to leave the country in fear of killings and violence of all kinds. The death toll among Christians over the past seven years, according to Hammurabi exceeds 822 people. 629 of them were murdered for being part of the Christian minority. Others were involved in 126 attacks of various kinds and many others have been victims of military operations undertaken by U.S. and Iraqi forces. 13% of victims are women. Among the Christian victims of 2010 there are 33 children, 25 elderly and 14 religious. In 2010 Hammurabi recorded 92 cases of Christians killed and 47 wounded, 68 in Baghdad, 23 in Mosul and one in Erbil.
The director of Hammurabi, named after the Code of Hammurabi, one of the oldest known collections of laws in human history, William Warda, said that constant monitoring and documentation show that all the Christian Churches in Iraq – Chaldeans, Assyrians, Syrians, Armenians – have suffered heavy losses in the number of their faithful, all over the country. The decline is particularly strong in Baghdad and Mosul, where Christians are concentrated in greater numbers. Warda said that in one year there were more than 90 Christians killed and 280 wounded, and two churches have been the target of attacks in Baghdad.” Read more.
Will the U.S. withdrawal sound a death knell for Iraq’s minorities? – “The campaign of violence against Iraq’s ethno-religious minorities sends a clear message: leave or die. Last October, an Al Qaeda linked terrorist faction held an entire Assyrian Catholic congregation hostage in Baghdad and executed priests and worshippers during Sunday mass. In response to these attacks and the international scrutiny that followed, a rightfully ashamed Prime Minister Maliki issued condolences and promised to protect religious minority groups. Yet, while this small gesture was important, it unfortunately has not tempered the level of violence that is sparking a mass exodus to Syria, Jordan and the West and a massive internal migration of thousands of Iraqi Christians. Despite Maliki’s promise of protection, local terrorist campaigns continue to make minority communities fear for their futures.” Read more.
Ex-CIA Official Robert Baer: ‘Israel Plans to Strike Iran in September’
“Israel may mount a strike against Iran in the fall, longtime CIA officer Robert Baer, who spent 21 years in the Middle East, told a Los Angeles radio station Saturday.
Baer ventured such a move will drag the United States into another major war and endangering US military and civilian personnel throughout the Middle East and beyond.
Baer spoke on the provocative KPFK Los Angeles show Background Briefing, hosted by Ian Masters.
Baer didn’t name sources for his prediction of an Israeli attack, but the few he did cite are all Israeli security figures who have publically warned that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was adamant to strike Iran, such as former Mossad Chief Meir Dagan.
Baer said that ‘There is almost near certainty that Netanyahu is planning an attack (on Iran)… and it will probably be in September before the vote on a Palestinian state. And he’s also hoping to draw the United States into the conflict,’ he explained.” Read more.
‘Syria increasing arms shipments to Hezbollah’ – “Damascus is increasing shipments of advanced missiles and other weapons to Hezbollah amid continuing unrest in Syria, The Times of London reported Friday quoting Western intelligence officials. The officials said Syria provided Hezbollah with eight Scud D missiles that have a range of 700 kilometers. The missiles ‘are accurate to within tens of meters and bring all of Israel, Jordan and large parts of Turkey within Hezbollah’s range,’ the officials were quoted by the newspaper as saying.” Read more.
Major increase in weapons and explosives smuggled into Gaza since Egyptian revolution – “Military Intelligence estimates Hamas and Islamic Jihad have obtained more than 10,000 rockets and missiles – including a large stockpile of Iranian Fajr-5 rockets that can reach Tel Aviv – close to what Hezbollah had on the eve of the Second Lebanon War in 2006. A year ago, the terror groups were believed to have just a few thousands rockets, but the revolution in Egypt has completely altered the balance of power between Israel and Gaza… one of the first results of the revolution was the interim government’s decision to stop construction of a steel barrier that Egypt had been building along its border with Gaza in an effort to curb smuggling. Instead, since the revolution, the IDF believes Hamas has smuggled in three times the amount of explosives it brought into Gaza in all of 2010.” Read more.
Scientists and Researchers Concerned About Unusual Seismic Activity in Yellowstone Following Earthquake Swarms
Reporter: “The mountain west region and Yellowstone in particular are no strangers to earthquakes, but what scientists say is unusual is to see the kind of energy that they’re seeing for this extended period of time.”
U of U Researcher: “We haven’t had this energetic or intensive swarm in many years. Well over a decade. So it’s not normal, it’s unusual… We don’t know why this happened now. We normally get a thousand to 2 thousand earthquakes a year in Yellowstone. The fact that we got 250 or so in three days makes — we made up a lot of that energy release in a short period of time…”
Indonesia: Double Eruption at Lokon Volcano
“An Indonesian volcano erupted twice on Monday following its biggest eruption in weeks over the weekend, a government volcanologist said, forcing people to remain in safety shelters.
‘The two eruptions happened within ten minutes which sent a column of ash and smoke up to 600 meters into the air,’ government vulcanologist Freddy Korompis said from a monitoring post.
The 1,580-meter-tall Mount Lokon experienced its biggest eruption on Sunday with huge clouds of ash propelled 3,500 meters into the sky.
More than 5,200 people have been evacuated to temporary shelters since the volcano erupted on Thursday and its alert status was placed on the highest level.
It last erupted in 1991, killing a Swiss tourist.” Read more.
‘Only’ 73% of Palestinians Want Jews Annihilated (as Per Islam’s Canonical Hadith)
This 73% is not relegated to only young active male jihadists, either. And I would venture to guess that the number of Palestinian Muslims who want to see the Jews annihilated would be even higher if we were to factor out the number of Palestinian Christians who may have been included in this survey …
Ezekiel 35:1-6, “The word of the LORD came to me: ‘Son of man, set your face against Mount Seir; prophesy against it and say: ‘This is what the Sovereign LORD says: I am against you, Mount Seir, and I will stretch out my hand against you and make you a desolate waste. I will turn your towns into ruins and you will be desolate. Then you will know that I am the LORD. Because you harbored an ancient hostility and delivered the Israelites over to the sword at the time of their calamity, the time their punishment reached its climax, therefore as surely as I live, declares the Sovereign LORD, I will give you over to bloodshed and it will pursue you. Since you did not hate bloodshed, bloodshed will pursue you.’”
By Andrew G. Bostom – “Data have just been released from a survey completed this week which confirm the implacable, murderous irredentism of Israel’s Palestinian Muslim ‘peace partners.’
American pollster Stanley Greenberg performed what is described as an ‘intensive, face-to-face survey in Arabic of 1,010 Palestinian adults in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip.’
Here are the salient, pathognomonic findings:
First, a mere 73% of the Palestinians surveyed agree with the annihilationist dictates of this canonical hadith (the words and deeds of Islam’s prophet Muhammad which have a weight often equal to the Koran), quoted in the Hamas Covenant.
As characterized in the hadith, Muslim eschatology — end of times theology — highlights the Jews’ supreme hostility to Islam. Jews are described as adherents of the Dajjâl — the Muslim equivalent of the Anti-Christ — or according to another tradition, the Dajjâl is himself Jewish. At his appearance, other traditions maintain that the Dajjâl will be accompanied by 70,000 Jews from Isfahan, or Jerusalem, wrapped in their robes, and armed with polished sabers, their heads covered with a sort of veil. When the Dajjâl is defeated, his Jewish companions will be slaughtered — everything will deliver them up except for the so-called gharkad tree, as per the canonical hadith (Sahih Muslim, Book 41, Number 6985) included in the 1988 Hamas Covenant (in article 7). The hadith– which ¾ of those surveyed agree should be acted upon — is cited in the Covenant as a sacralized, obligatory call for a Muslim genocide of the Jews:” Read more.
Gaza and the West Bank: 31 Opportunities for Statehood Squandered in Favor of Genocide – “There is an eerie déjà vu about an unmistakable and oft-repeated process in the Arab–Israel conflict. The process started in 1937 and has repeated itself with minor variations many times over the subsequent 74 years. The process is as follows: Arabs go to war with Israel, promising Israel’s destruction and the annihilation of its Jews. Israel wins the war and offers peace. Arab leaders reject Israel’s peace offer, renew their promises of destruction and annihilation; and after a while they go to war again, and lose again, and Israel again offers peace. Repeat this process 31 times and you have the history of the Arab-Israel conflict in a nutshell.” Read more.
Hamas MP and Cleric: The Caliphate is Coming and in a Few Years a ‘Great Massacre of Jews’ – “The (Jews) are brought in droves to Palestine so that the Palestinians – and the Islamic nation behind them – will have the honor of annihilating the evil of this gang… All the predators, all the birds of prey, all the dangerous reptiles and insects, and all the lethal bacteria are far less dangerous than the Jews… In Just a few years, all the Zionists and the settlers will realize that their arrival in Palestine was for the purpose of the great massacre, by means of which Allah wants to relieve humanity of their evil.” Read more.
Israeli Doctor Saves Life of 4 Month Old Palestinian Boy, Mother Then Says She Would Be Proud if He Grew Up to be a Suicide Bomber – “… And even after the funding has been secured and the transplant performed, Mohammed’s mother, Raida, makes a statement that calls into question all the efforts to save his life. As she and the filmmaker, Israeli TV reporter Shlomi Eldar, discuss the status of Jerusalem, Raida says she would be proud to see her son grow up to be a suicide bomber. ‘Even the smallest infant, younger than Mohammed, to the oldest person, we’ll all sacrifice ourselves for Jerusalem,’ she says. Asked by a dumbfounded Mr. Eldar whether she would let Mohammed become a shahid, or martyr, if he recovers, she replies, ‘Absolutely. If it’s for the sake of Jerusalem, I would.’ Life, she says, is not precious.” Read more.
‘You Are Entering A Shariah Controlled Zone’: UK Group to Wage Islamic Law Campaign
Try them all for treason and deport them immediately before this becomes a problem that can no longer be contained …
Daniel 7:25, “And he shall speak [great] words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.”
By Buck Sexton – “‘Muslims Against Crusades’ (MAC), an Islamic group based in the United Kingdom, plans to wage a propaganda campaign to make a portion of London accept Sharia law. They are calling it the ‘Islamic Emirates Project,’ and it is designed to create beachheads for sharia across the UK.
The MAC group is specifically encouraging Muslims, who comprise 15% of Waltham Forest in northeast London, to enforce Islamic legal codes banning alcohol, gambling, drugs, smoking, pornography, prostitution and music concerts in their borough. MAC released a statement this week that said:
‘As part of our Islamic Emirate Project, Waltham Forest is to be the first borough to be targeted for an intense shari’a led campaign, introducing the prospect of Islamic law for the Muslim community to abide by.’
The MAC intends to convince Muslims in Waltham to self-enforce Sharia at first, and later to set up an ‘emirate’- an Islamic statelet with Sharia law replacing British legal codes.” Read more.
Churches in Nigeria Shuttered, Reduced with Uptick in Islamic Terrorism
“Christians in northern Nigeria’s Borno state, already forced to abandon worship services due to attacks by Islamic sect Boko Haram, are bracing for a massive assault to commemorate the death of the extremists group’s leader at the end of the month.
Christians are streaming out of Maiduguri, about 540 miles northeast of the Nigerian capital of Abuja, where some of the worst-hit churches are located. Churches are shutting down as many of their members have lost their lives in attacks that have not ceased even after security agencies were enlisted to confront the assailants.
Compass witnessed most church buildings were shuttered and guarded by soldiers and police in the Maiduguri areas of Wulari-Jerusalem, Railway Station, Bulunkutu, Damboa Road, and Bayan NNPC. Some churches bold enough to open were compelled to reschedule their worship services in order to outmaneuver militants who knew that most services start at 10 a.m.
‘As you can see, the town is unsafe, and it is just appropriate for any church leader to be reasonable and safe,’ a pastor with The Apostolic Church who declined to give his name for fear of attack told Compass. ‘We took the decision to hold a one-and-a-half-hour service earlier than our usual time so that our people can return home in time because of the threat.'” Read more.
North Korea: Refugees Flee Worst Famine in a Decade, 6 Million People at Risk and the ‘Dear Leader’ Does Nothing
By Peter Foster – “FOUR North Koreans who recently risked their lives to flee across the closely guarded border with China say that families are scouring the countryside for wild plants in a desperate attempt to stave off starvation.
‘Some people are having to eat manure when they cannot get rice or corn,’ said one refugee, 68-year-old Kim Yeong.
The United Nations World Food Program says North Korea faces its worst food shortage in a decade, with 6 million people at risk and the regime is unwilling to spend its dwindling hard currency reserves on buying food for its population of 24 million.
Heavy rain from July 12 to 15 destroyed or submerged more than 20,000 hectares of farmland across the country, the state-run Korean Central News Agency said.
But the world has been slow to react for fear of propping up the increasingly belligerent regime of Kim Jong-il, which is vigorously pursuing a nuclear weapons program and threatening its South Korean neighbour.” Read more.
Michigan: Honor Killing or Just Muslim Savagery? Dearborn Man Charged with Murder, Burning Woman’s Torso
Surely, someone who could commit a heinous crime such as this could never be from the peaceful city of Dearborn …
By Debbie Schlussel – “I would love to know the immigration status of Oussama T. Othman a/k/a Oussama Talal Othman of Dearbornistan Heights. On Tuesday, he was arraigned on Tuesday on a charge of first-degree murder for the brutal killing of Margaret Sheppard Webb of Dearbornistan in 2004. The case had been a cold case until recently. Webb’s body was found with severe head trauma and a burned torso. Yup, more ‘Religion of Peace’ ‘peacefulness.’
This isn’t the first time for Othman. A Michigan Court of Appeals docket shows that criminal cases were brought against Othman in both 1998 and 2007 and that he was convicted in both cases, serving time in prison as recently as November 2007. The State of Michigan Offender Tracking Information System (OTIS) shows that Othman has been convicted of crimes in four separate incidents from 1995 to 2005, including criminal sexual conduct, obtaining money under false pretenses, and drunk driving. And he’s apparently a murderer, too.” Read more.
