Egypt: Protesters Storm Israeli Embassy in Cairo and Destroy Israeli Flag as Egyptian Police Stand Aside and Do Nothing
“Egyptian protesters on Friday night broke into the Israeli embassy in Cairo and succeeded in removing the flag from atop the high-rise after they destroyed a protective wall surrounding the building. An Israeli official in Jerusalem said that while activists had broken into the entered of the building, the mission itself had not been breached.
No Israelis were injured as Egyptian activists demolished the wall around the Israeli embassy in Cairo during angry protests. Some activists who had entered appeared to be throwing documents from windows in the building, which the Jerusalem official explained as pamphlets and papers at the embassy’s foyer, and not from inside.
Israeli embassy workers were not located in the building while the protests were taking place.
After Friday prayers, thousands had converged on Tahrir Square, the epicenter of the protests that toppled former President Hosni Mubarak, for what was billed as “Correcting the Path” protests.
Some of the demonstrators later marched to the other side of the Nile in Giza, where they used hammers and large metal rods to destroy the wall, erected this month by Egyptian authorities after daily protests over the killing of five Egyptian border guards in Sinai.
‘This action shows the state of anger and frustration the young Egyptian revolutionaries feel against Israel especially after the recent attacks on the Egyptian borders that led to the killing of Egyptian soldiers,’ Egyptian political analyst Nabil Abdel Fattah told Reuters.
Egyptian police stood aside as activists tore down the concrete wall to the cheers of hundreds of demonstrators.” Read more.
Strong 6.4 Earthquake Strikes Near Vancouver Island Off Canada’s Western Coast, Felt in Seattla WA
Richter Magnitude 6.4 – VANCOUVER ISLAND, CANADA REGION
Friday, September 09, 2011 at 12:41:35 PM at epicenter
49.474°N, 126.974°W
Depth: 25.9 km (16.1 miles)
“A 6.4 magnitude earthquake has struck off the west coast of Vancouver Island, with tremors felt as far away as Metro Vancouver. The reading was downgraded from the initial magnitude given as 6.7.
But there is no tsunami warning advisory or warning for the U.S. or Canadian coasts, and local police say there are no reports of injuries or damage. However, there could be aftershocks up to magnitude of 5, seismologists warn.
At 12:42 pm PT, an earthquake with a magnitude of 6.4 occurred under the Pacific Ocean about 90 kilometres south of Port Alice, on Vancouver Island. ‘Based on the earthquake magnitude, location and historic tsunami records, a damaging tsunami is not expected,’ the West Coast and Alaska Tsunami Warning Center says.
However, the centre advised that underwater landslides may cause ‘local tsunamis’ at some coastal locations that experienced strong ground shaking.
In the small coastal community of Zeballos, the quake prompted some residents to ‘throw their cats and dogs into the car and prepared to head out of town,” said Carolyne Withrow, who runs the local fuel dock. “It shook for about 40 seconds, then there was silence, then it went again, a little harder.’
Students were evacuated from the village’s elementary school, and many of the 500 residents quickly gathered at the designated emergency meeting grounds, a large, flat field towards the outskirts, where mayor Ted Lewis and the fire chief assessed whether any further action was required.” Read more.
Billy Graham’s Daughter: 9/11 Was ‘A Wake-up Call’ But ‘We’re Still Sleeping!’
1 Thessalonians 5:6, “Therefore let us not sleep, as others do, but let us watch …”
“Anne Graham Lotz, daughter of famed evangelical leader the Rev. Billy Graham, believes that the 9/11 attacks on America were a wake-up call from God.
She believes that the event, though tragic, served as a call to all Christian believers to start a revival in the church. It was this horrific event, Lotz explains, that further sparked and reinvigorated her interest in spreading the gospel. According to Beliefnet, as she watched the towers fall on television a decade ago, God set her ‘heart on fire’:
‘On that day, God woke me up and set my heart on fire to tell other people the glorious good news of the gospel of Jesus Christ.
It made me more focused. As I watched the towers fall, I thought I was watching 50,000 people die, but many people had gotten out. It was less than 3,000, but it was still shattering. I asked myself how many were not ready to step into eternity. I remember that very day sharing the Gospel with strangers. I came out bolder. It was a time not to be silent.’
That passion apparently is still aflame inside of her as she says that she doesn’t want to see anyone ‘die without Jesus.’ Christians like Lotz believe that admittance to heaven is dependent upon an acceptance of and a relationship with Jesus Christ.” Read more.
‘Turkey Better Show Respect’: Israel to Fight Back as Turkey Calls Israel ‘Ungrateful Burden’ and Takes Hard Line Abroad
“Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman has decided to adopt a series of harsh measures in response to Turkey’s latest anti-Israeli moves, Yedioth Ahronoth reported Friday.
Senior Foreign Ministry officials convened Thursday to prepare for a meeting to be held Saturday with Lieberman on the matter. Saturday’s session will be dedicated to discussing Israel’s response to Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s recent threats and his decision to downgrade Ankara’s diplomatic ties with Jerusalem.
Following Thursday’s meeting, officials assessed that Turkey is not interested in an Israeli apology at this time and prefers to exploit the dispute with Jerusalem in order to promote Ankara’s status in the Muslim world. Lieberman therefore decided there was no point in seeking creative formulas for apologizing, instead choosing to focus Israel’s efforts on punishing Turkey.
The Foreign Ministry has now decided to proceed with the formulation of a diplomatic and security “toolbox” to be used against the Turks. The first move would be to issue a travel warning urging all Israeli military veterans to refrain from traveling to Turkey. The advisory will be especially harsh as it will also urge Israelis to refrain from boarding connections in Turkey.
Another planned Israeli move is the facilitation of cooperation with Turkey’s historic rivals, the Armenians. During Lieberman’s visit to the United States this month, the foreign minister is expected to meet with leaders of the Armenian lobby and propose anti-Turkish cooperation in Congress.
The implication of this move could be Israeli assistance in promoting international recognition of the Armenian holocaust, a measure that would gravely harm Turkey. Israel may also back Armenia in its dispute vis-à-vis Turkey over control of Mount Ararat.
‘Turkey better show respect’
Lieberman is also planning to set meetings with the heads of Kurdish rebel group PKK in Europe in order to “cooperate with them and boost them in every possible area.” In these meetings, the Kurds may ask Israel for military aid in the form of training and arms supplies, a move that would constitute a major anti-Turkish position should it materialize.” Read more.
Turkish president calls Israel ‘ungrateful burden’ – “Turkish President Abdullah Gül said on Thursday that Israel is an ungrateful burden to its allies, Turkish newspaper Hurriyet Daily News reported. On his way to a multicultural conference in Russia, Gül accused Israel of offering to apologize four times for the Mavi Marmara incident, but then reneging each time. According to the Turkish president, Israel should consider an ‘honorable peace’ with its Arab neighbors and stop acting as if the world, especially Turkey, owes it favors, the report said.” Read more.
Turkey flexes muscle against Israel in bid to become leading power in the Middle East and North Africa – “ISTANBUL—Turkey is showing signs of trading its vaunted ‘zero problems with neighbors’ foreign policy for a more muscular approach to its bid to become the leading power in the Middle East and North Africa. The shift, analysts and diplomats say, could trigger clashes with Israel and force Washington to choose between its closest allies in the region. In recent weeks the policy change has been on display as Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan threatened to deploy his country’s navy in a dispute with Israel…” Read more.
Italy: Mount Etna Again Comes Back to Life ‘Like A Rumbling Train’
“On the morning of 8 September 2011, the New Southeast Crater of Etna has produced its 13th paroxysmal eruptive episode of the year 2011, generating a tall eruption column that moved south-southeast, and provoking ash and lapilli falls on numerous population centers including Trecastagni, Viagrande, San Giovanni La Punta, and the eastern part of Catania.
During this paroxysm, brief explosive events occurred also from various spots on the northern flank of the New Southeast Crater cone.” Source.
Magnetic ‘CME Shockwave’ Measured in Norway Following This Week’s Solar Flare, More Expected This Weekend
“Today. sept.09 2011 at 12.45 UTC the first CME arrived as a magnetic shockwave on my instruments. There is also an effect in signal strength from my vlf receivers, coming through electrons in the solarwind cloud. The magnetic field is unstable at the moment, it means a big change for auroras coming night.” Source.
“GEOMAGNETIC STORM: A polar geomagnetic storm (Kp=5) is in progress following the impact of a CME around 1100 UT on Sept. 9th. This could be the first of several hits from a series of CMEs expected to reach Earth during the weekend. High-latitude sky watchers should be alert for auroras after nightfall.” – SpaceWeather.com
Ground Zero Mosque Imam Speaks Against Free Speech: Being Critical of Other People’s Religious Beliefs Should Not Be A Right
Apparently the US Constitution isn’t so compatible with Sharia Law after all. What Imam Feisal Rauf is getting at when he says that “other’s religious beliefs” should not be “insulted or mocked” is this: In America no one should be allowed to criticize or disagree with Islam. If he truly believes that speaking not-so-glowingly about another person’s religious beliefs should be classified as “libel”, then he might want to think about rewriting large portions of the Muslim ‘holy book’. In the Qur’an, for example, Muslims in heaven will entertain themselves by looking down on misguided non-Muslims in hell such as Jews and Christians, mocking them in their cursed torment …
Qur’an 7:44, “The Companions of the Garden will call out to the Companions of the Fire: ‘We have indeed found the promises of our Lord to us true: Have you also found Your Lord’s promises true?’ They shall say, ‘Yes’; but a crier shall proclaim between them: ‘The curse of Allah is on the wrong-doers'”
Qur’an 3:85, “And whoever desires a religion other than Islam, it shall not be accepted from him, and in the hereafter he shall be one of the losers [because he is in hell].”
Qur’an 5:5, “O you who believe! do not take the Jews and the Christians for friends; they are friends of each other; and whoever amongst you takes them for a friend, then surely he is one of them; surely Allah does not guide the unjust people.”
By Andrea Lafferty – “There is nothing that strikes deeper at the heart of the American experiment than a test of our liberties — the right to free speech, and the right of religious freedom. It was because of these liberties that Islamist terror struck on September 11th, 2011, costing thousands of lives and bringing the realities of the world a bit closer to home.
10 years later, the Islamist threat remains.
Yet the tactics have changed. Rather than planes, Islamists use mosques as nerve centers for resistance. Rather than terrorists, Islamists use imams and lawyers to drive the point home. Rather than bombs, Islamists use deceit and deception to say one thing while the realities on the ground are far different.” Read more.
North Carolina: Officials Warning Citizens Not To Eat or Touch Dead Fish Affected by Numerous Mystery Fish Kills
“RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) – The state Division of Public Health is warning citizens to avoid eating or touching dead fish in response to numerous fish kills in eastern North Carolina in the past week.
State Health Director Dr. Jeff Engel said officials cannot say what specifically caused the fish kills, so people are being discouraged from eating any fish found dead.
Engel said fish kills often result from low oxygen levels in the water, but after a hurricane and flooding, chemical contamination cannot be ruled out. He also recommended that people and animals avoid swimming in water where dead fish have been found.
Many of the state’s shellfish harvesting areas have been reopened since Hurricane Irene, following water sampling that indicated a return to acceptable bacteria levels.” Source.
IMF Managing Director: Risk Levels Rising as World Enters ‘Dangerous New Phase’
By Catherine Boyle – “Christine Lagarde, the managing director of the International Monetary Fund, warned that the global economy is entering a “dangerous new phase” on Friday, ahead of the G7 summit in Marseilles, France.
She warned that both advanced and emerging economies faced key economic challenges, and that governments must “act now” to stop further contagion.
‘Policymakers should stand ready, as needed, to take more action to support the recovery, including through unconventional measures,’ Lagarde said.
‘The world is collectively suffering from a crisis of confidence, in the face of a deteriorating economic outlook and rising concerns about the health of sovereigns and banks.’
Her speech at Chatham House in London came after a turbulent week for the markets, with the focus on sovereign debt issues in the euro zone and job creation in the US.
She welcomed President Obama’s new $450 billion jobs package, announced Thursday, but added ‘it remains critical for the United States to clarify its medium term plan.’
The British government, including Chancellor of the Exchequer George Osborne, who also spoke, was warned that ‘risk levels are rising’ in the UK and the government needs to have a ‘heightened readiness to respond.'” Read more.
Global economy looks increasingly gloomy – “From Seoul to Washington, policymakers are increasingly worried about the outlook for the global economy. Central banks in Europe and Asia took a new, more cautious stance on Thursday and Brazil said the deteriorating world economy prompted its surprise rate cut last week. U.S. Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke said the central bank would do what it takes to lower unemployment and boost disappointingly weak growth, but offered no details on what that would entail.” Read more.
World’s biggest economies ‘grinding to a halt’ – “Chancellor George Osborne today blamed negative international factors for the slowdown in the British economy, as a respected global think-tank predicted UK growth will stutter to a near-halt over the coming months. The Organisation for Economic Co-Operation and Development (OECD) forecast annualised growth of just 0.3% for the UK in the final quarter of 2011, in a report which painted a gloomy picture of prospects for most of the world’s biggest economies.” Read more.
US: Federal Authorities Probe Possible Terror Threat ‘Specific Enough to Elicit Worry’ Around 9/11 Anniversary
The Enigma Continues: Another terror threat that, for some mysterious reason, fails to involve ‘right-wing extremists’ …
By Mike Levine & Jennifer Griffin – “Federal authorities have come across what they believe may be a credible threat to the U.S. homeland surrounding the 10th anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, several sources tell Fox News.
The threat would target New York City or Washington, D.C., sources said. Authorities have obtained what they believe is information on possible suspects tied to central Al Qaeda, but they have not necessarily determined names of possible suspects.
According to a senior U.S. official with knowledge of the threat, ‘People are aggressively pursuing leads,’ and it is ‘specific enough to elicit worry.’ Another senior U.S. official stressed the threat is still ‘unconfirmed’ so it is being chased down and investigated.
President Obama has been briefed on the seriousness of this threat, according to a senior administration official
‘It feels more than aspirational,’ one official said.
The FBI and Department of Homeland Security were drafting a bulletin Thursday night to send to local law enforcement across the country.
‘We have a duty to warn,’ the senior U.S. official said.” Read more.
U.S. Citizen Linked To Terror Plot on 9/11 Anniversary – “U.S. authorities are scrambling to sort through information that the CIA developed in the past 24 hours indicating that at least three individuals entered the U.S. in August by air with the intent to launch a vehicle-borne attack against Washington, D.C. or New York around the anniversary of 9/11, according to intelligence officials. One of the intelligence and law enforcement officials that ABC News spoke to said that one of the individuals may be a U.S. citizen and a second official said that possibly two of the individuals may have had U.S. documentation — whether green cards or passports was unclear.” Read more.
US: 100,000 Ordered To Evacuate Pennsylvania Area, New York Residents Also Evacuating As Flood Waters Rise
“Officials in the Pennsylvania area along the Susquehanna River have ordered more than 100,000 people to evacuate their homes. The rivers waters have continued to rise following Tropical Storm Lee and the river is expected to crest at 41 feet by 8pm.
According to one county commissioner speaking with the Standard Speaker:
‘We want people to heed our order and leave,’ while they add, ‘It’s significant. We want them to leave.’
Pennsylvania residents aren’t the only one’s experiencing problems brought on my flooding, an evacuation notice was also issued for Eastern New York as the Hudson and Mohawk are expected to spill over.
As a safety precaution officials in Binghmaton, NY have closed all bridges in the area and ordered an urgent notice, telling residents ‘you need to move now.’ The urgent evacuation notice came after the Army Corps of Engineers shut down two major dams, while the areas sewage plant was taken offline due to flooding.
Residents in areas where flooding is likely are being asked to conserve fresh water in the event that filtration plants are also shut down for flooding.
According to WGAL 8 the circumstances surrounding the flooding are dangerous and have already led to the deaths of at least three people in Pennsylvania.” Read more.
Israel Isolated Ahead of ‘Momentous’ September 20, 2011 UN Vote on Palestinian ‘Independence’
Not sure if there is any significance to the fact that the very next day after the UN vote on Palestinian ‘independence’ — September 21, 2011 — is also the International Day of Peace, but the timing of the vote is a bit interesting …
Update 9/19/2011: The vote seems to have been pushed to September 23rd, 2011. I’ve also included another item worthy of attention, which is the fact that the Palestinian Authority will demand enforcement of UN Resolution 377, even if the United States vetoes Palestinian membership. UN Resolution 377 states that if the Security Council fails to act to maintain world “peace and security”, the General Assembly could then consider the matter in an emergency session, which can be called at the request of a majority of UN member states …
1 Thessalonians 5:3, “While people are saying, ‘There is peace and security,’ then sudden destruction will come upon them as labor pains come upon a pregnant woman, and they will not escape.”
By JOSEF FEDERMAN – “JERUSALEM (AP) — Rising tensions with some of its closest and most important allies have left Israel increasingly isolated ahead of a momentous vote on Palestinian independence at the United Nations.
Troubles with Turkey, Egypt and even the U.S. are adding to Israel’s headaches ahead of the vote, which is shaping up to be a global expression of discontent against the government of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
The Palestinians plan to ask the United Nations this month to recognize their independence in the West Bank, Gaza Strip and east Jerusalem — areas captured by Israel in the 1967 Mideast war — probably by embracing them as a ‘nonmember observer state.’ The measure is expected to pass overwhelmingly in the U.N. General Assembly.” Read more.
Flashback: PA will demand enforcement of General Assembly ‘Uniting for Peace’ resolution even if US vetoes – “PLO official Saeb Erekat has said Palestinians would activate UN resolution 377 if faced with a US veto in September. The ‘Uniting for Peace’ resolution states that if the Security Council fails to act to maintain world peace and security, the General Assembly should consider the matter in an emergency session. The session can be called at the request of seven members of the Security Council or by a majority of UN member states. Following a widespread diplomatic campaign, some 112 countries have recognized Palestine as an independent state and more are expected to do so in coming weeks. Palestinians would need the support of 129 countries to implement Resolution 377 and secure a General Assembly vote on UN membership.” Read more.
Flashback: Palestinians Plan Mass Demonstrations Against Israel on September 20 – “Palestinian officials said Monday they plan to begin mass marches against Israel’s occupation of the West Bank on September 20 … Palestinian official Yasser Abed Rabbo said leaders hope to attract millions, and the protest will be the first of a prolonged effort. He said the campaign would be called ‘Palestine 194,’ since the Palestinians hope to become the 194th member of the United Nations. ‘The appeal to the UN is a battle for all Palestinians, and in order to succeed, it needs millions to pour into streets,’ he said.” Read more.
Settler security chief: September infiltrators will be shot – “Palestinians who try to force their way into West Bank settlements during the mass protests in favor of statehood anticipated for September 20 ‘will be shot,’ chief settler security officer Shlomo Vaknin told The Jerusalem Post on Thursday. The protests are expected to accompany the Palestinian unilateral bid for recognition of statehood at the United Nations… This statement is backed up by an opinion issued by the Attorney-General’s Office for Judea and Samaria, signed by its Eyal Elad, who is tasked with human rights issues regarding the IDF.” Read more.
