There was little if any surprise when the local elections in the Arab Palestinian Authority Areas and Gaza were cancelled. We understood that the probable results would very likely place Hamas representatives elected over anyone thought to be acting under orders from the Palestinian Authority (PA). The elections were shaping up to be a vote of no confidence over the lack of any real and meaningful progress towards peace with Israel. The reality would be something far different as wherever the PA currently ruled the elections would favor Hamas and in Hamas controlled areas there would be internecine killing as well. The groups of Arab populations who live under either the PA or Hamas would be seeking new leadership and this would necessarily start at the local areas. The problem is that neither the PA nor Hamas can allow their citizenry to elect people from the other side. As each is not exactly popular whence they rule, neither would consider elections to be to their advantage. Further, both sides have good reason to suspect the elections on the other side would be tainted and that the reality would come down to who counted the votes, not who cast them. That is the real reason the elections were cancelled, neither side was willing to subject the local political base under each respective population to be allowed openly to vote for the representatives in their own neighborhoods. Had the elections gone forward there would have necessarily been bloodshed as part of the campaign on both sides in an attempt to strengthen their grip on their respective areas. Hamas representatives and candidates would be arrested in Judea and Samaria to ensure they would have no direct effect upon the elections and Hamas would remedy their problem in a similar manner just with less media attention.
Israel also has reason to be relieved as the elections were poised to give Hamas large areas of control in Judea and Samaria. Hamas would have retained their control over local governance in Gaza by any means necessary which would have resulted in murders of any remaining PA sympathizers. Similar actions would take place where the PA rules except Hamas sympathizers would have simply been jailed and not permitted to vote and the most adamant of the Hamas representatives would have met with a fatal accident. Further, should these local elections have occurred, then both sides would have taken drastic and direct actions to retain their control. The rulers in Gaza, Hamas, and Judea and Samaria, the PA, have both become quite unpopular to a large segment if not a majority of their constituents for similar reasons. Where there being no hope of any final peace with Israel, a governance of Kleptocrats stealing them blind and no peace talks by the PA being scheduled and no reconstruction instead of tunnel building in Gaza has made both segments of their populations ready to demand change. The change might also take the form of local leaders more willing to work with the Israelis than with their respective governments and possibly even demanding relief from either Hamas or PA rule. There is far too much money being siphoned off by both sides to permit any threat to their road to untold wealth. The most obvious recipients of said siphoned funds are Mahmoud Abbas, Khaled Mashal and Ismail Haniyeh respectively; multimillionaire or potentially billionaires all (see picture below).
Mahmoud Abbas, Khaled Mashal and Ismail Haniyeh
The concept that there is no money to be made in terrorism has been proven time and again to be a fallacy. For the terrorists presumably fighting against Israel, fighting against the Jews and their Jewish State, the world is willing to spend an unlimited amount of money to undo what they believe was their biggest mistake ever, the founding of Israel. Israel was founded under the premise that the Arab forces would remove it immediately after it was founded and they got the united Arab States surrounding Israel (Syria, Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Yemen and various militia forces, plus the Mufti of Jerusalem's forces, the precursors to Hamas and PA) to all attack Israel as stated yesterday with the map below. These combined forces had some initial success but were soon being repulsed requiring the world to demand ceasefire after ceasefire allowing the Arab Armies which were in disarray to regroup. Each time the results were the same, initial Arab gains due to surprise as they were breaking the truce and Israeli forces were presumably in stand-down rather than combat modes.
Initial Invasion Routes by Arab Armies on May 15, 1948
The Israelis still managed to turn things around rapidly and had the fighting been permitted to last longer it became obvious that the Jews would regain all the areas they had not had control after the initial burst on the morning of May 15, 1948 immediately after the British pulled out and presumably before the Israelis had gotten organized into some form of command structure tying all the disparate defensive groups together. The final result left Syria in command of the high ground of the Golan Heights, Egypt holding Gaza and Jordan occupying Judea and Samaria which they annexed illegally and renamed it something less Jewish, namely the West Bank. All of these territories were liberated by Israel in the Six Day War forced by massed troops on both northern and southern borders and the eventual joining the futile effort of Egypt and Syria despite Israeli pleas for them to remain out of the hostilities, thus allowing Israel to liberate the large areas of Judea and Samaria. The world is still pressing to force Israel back to the perilous 1949 Armistice Lines which with modern weaponry is completely indefensible while the movement for Israel to simply annex all of Judea and Samaria would leave Israel defendable with the Jordan River, Dead Sea and Golan Heights as her eastern borders (see maps below).

With an Israel midsection cut back to the mere nine miles would allow for any new Arab invasion force to immediately cut Jerusalem from Tel Aviv making any forces or Israelis left in Jerusalem facing a similarly deadly situation as they were in 1948 when the identical strike was made and only through a herculean effort were Israeli forces able to reconnect to Jerusalem in the final days, actually hours, before the Armistice Lines were set as the front lines of contiguous forces, the reason a breakthrough to Jerusalem to relieve those still holed up there and make some claim to this holiest of Jewish cities. After cutting off Jerusalem the heart of Israel could be bombarded by direct and indirect fire from atop the Judean Hills western ledge which rises fifteen-hundred to over twenty-five-hundred feet overlooking the coastal plains below. Tel Aviv and even its central district with the tallest buildings in Israel are all clearly seen from the heights. Further, even today the old adage of he with the high ground had the advantage holds some validity. The damage which could be unloaded simply using mortars, light artillery and tank fire for fifteen to thirty minutes would prove devastating even should Israel then repulse the assaulting forces. One would not need to rely on rockets or even use aircraft to devastate Israel from the Judean Hills (they are actually mountains as seen in images below).

By now the reasoning on why Israel must annex all of the West Bank including all of Jerusalem is far more clear and when one adds in the defensibility of the Jordan River and accompanying Valley, which must be climbed by any invading force including armor, the reasons become even more evident (see map from Jordan Valley to the Mediterranean Sea below). Giving away the high ground and the defensive virtual wall, which is the Jordan River Valley from which there are at most five passes allowing traveling to the heart of Israel, and it becomes even more vitally obvious.

Finally, back to the cancelled local election for all of the Palestinian Arabs under both the PA in Judea and Samaria and Hamas in Gaza and why this is simply the final nail in any potential for peace with Israel. First and foremost it must be stressed and stressed until it is fully understood everywhere, Israel had nothing to do with the cancelling of the elections. Mahmoud Abbas and the Fatah political arm of the PLO who also is President of the PA, simply put Abbas rules every possible entity controlling the PA areas, he cancelled the elections claiming difficulty in oversight in Gaza and other miscellaneous reasons. Hamas immediately followed up claiming they were postponing the Gaza elections as well. Abbas had already claimed he was cancelling the elections for all of the Palestinian Arab areas. Still, Hamas had to interject their control over Gaza as they cannot permit the PA or Fatah or any other organization where Abbas rules to make any decisions for Gaza. So Hamas rules Gaza except where Islamic Jihad and even Islamic State decide they are going to go rogue and fire rockets and mortars at Israel. This places Hamas in a tight squeeze as anything they do to end the shooting at Israel makes them appear to be doing the IDF's job of policing any attacks on Israel. The groups who would challenge Hamas for control in Gaza already have labeled Hamas as Israeli border guards.
Meanwhile the PA rules with Hamas elected to the parliament but their representatives are not permitted to attend meetings from Gaza. There are also Hamas, Islamic Jihad and Islamic State amongst others who are all prepared to shoot it out in Judea and Samaria to unseat Fatah and take over the PA. Then there are the least fortunate from amongst the Arab Palestinians from Judea, Samaria or Gaza who simply desire peace and to get on with a normal life. They would love to increase their cash flow and be as wealthy as are the Israelis. They also know they must never utter even the slightest expression of dissatisfaction with whichever group rules their little corner in "Hell," be it Judea, Samaria or Gaza. So we have the terrorists who if they are of rank are well paid and living high. If they are the family of a Shahada, a Martyr, then they will receive a salary commensurate with the numbers of Israelis their family member murdered and injured and how serious were the injuries. If one committed a terror act and survived and were arrested, they too receive payments while in prison and their family once they are out. This payment too is commensurate with the numbers of Israelis they murdered and injured and how serious were the injuries. These payments are often higher, sometimes by multiples as high as six times, than the salaries of the PA workers who have jobs in the governing bodies. They make more than the members of the police force and many of these terrorists who have blood on their hands for murdering Israelis are also police officers and usually higher ranking members of their enforcement services. Then there is Force 17 started way back by Yasser Arafat. These fighters, almost all terrorists, often convicted but released in one of those thousands for a single Israeli, and receive healthy salaries. If you are starting to believe that the most profitable business a family can easily build would be to sacrifice a few of the more troublesome children in terror suicide bombings or other terror attack pretty much guaranteed to end with their death, and then the family is rewarded and no longer need worry about working. Where does all this money come from to pay these terrorists' families? Where else, the United Nations through United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) which gets their funds mostly from the United States, European Union and various European governments. The United States, European Union and various European governments also give hundreds of millions to the PA, who passes knowingly half the monies to Hamas as protection as well for them to carry out attacks, of which a fair share is given to the terrorists and their families. But these funds are paid only as long as no money is diverted to terrorist activities, is that the claim? Well, it appears that everybody involved has agreed to accept Mahmoud Abbas assurances given while meeting once each year at the General Assembly of the United Nations opening ceremonies where Abbas gives a speech to a standing ovation and the Prime Minister of Israel also gives a speech at which point well over two-thirds of the representatives walk out. What was the question about funds not being used for terror again? Trust that nobody cares in all honesty and it is all a farcical circus where nobody in Israel is amused outside of some diehard leftists.
So, who does one talk to in order to establish a viable and terror-free Palestinian State? Even dropping the terror-free part, who is the one representing the majority of Palestinians? Even more poignant, who does one talk to who represents the Palestinians who want to build a working democratic state free of Kleptocrats who steal everything that is not nailed down? The answer to all the above questions is the same, nobody on the face of the earth outside of the supporters for Israel and the few Arabs stuck under the oppressive rule of either Hamas or the PA really care. The idea of a Palestinian State is simply a visor hiding the multitude of Arabs who back the destruction of Israel and a second Holocaust despite many not believing there ever was a first Holocaust. Here is where it starts to get confusing. Also desiring the end of Israel are the multitude of European Union and European government political leaders, rank and file and many moneyed interests which include George Soros for one and many others all who share the concept that the biggest mistake Europe ever made was the formation of Israel.
They reject Israel because it stands for the Jews who represent Torah and morality and the rule of law over the rule of men. Of course all these people desiring the end of Israel view themselves as part of the men part who rule the world from above all laws. Israel represents man's covenant with Hashem and thus represent Hashem Whose Law is absolute and stands above all mankind. There are those in the United States who would also love little more than to be rid of Israel. This includes President Obama, Socialist Bernie Sanders, Hillary Clinton, and a host of other extreme left-wingers and extreme right-wingers. We are speaking of the Pat Buchanan, Lew Rockwell, and the late Joseph Sobran. As we have pointed out before repeatedly, the Democrat National Convention for the past four and possibly six or longer have voted against placing any reference to Hashem or standing with Israel or that their Capital City be Jerusalem. They are against moving the United States Embassy to Jerusalem, but they have a consulate in Jerusalem to service Palestinians though it is located safely deep within Western Jerusalem, the newer parts of the city and not near the Temple Mount or East Jerusalem.
Yes, there are conspiracies which have as their aim the termination of the State of Israel and many would really appreciate following that up with making the final solution a done deed most foul. There have been such people ever since the Israelites received Torah at Mount Sinai. The first to try and harm the Israelites after they had left Egypt was the Amalekites (if memory serves me) who preyed on the weak, the feeble, the old and those who were unable to keep up the pace and straggled behind. It was this unkind opportunism amongst other deeds so foul that the Israelites are instructed to never forget Amalek and to be prepared for them in every generation. This name became the reference for anyone who plagued the Israelites and eventually the Jews. We are also warned that in every generation there will be one who rises up against us. I may not speak for all Israelis and especially not for all Jews, but I have beseeched Hashem to please make it just one. Still, the promise to the Zionist Congress was the Jordan River was to be our eastern border and still is under international law. We gave away our claim to Gaza, so that is gone for as long as they desire to live in peace.
We should also offer to allow the PA and their people, the Arab Palestinians, to make the choice we are to proffer to the Canaanites. We will allow them some lands and as long as they live there in peace and obey the Seven Noahic Codes we will live at peace with them. They may choose to leave at which point we wish them well and will not follow after them for any reason and especially not to do them harm for they left in peace. Finally, if none of these are acceptable and they instead choose war, they need to understand the full ramifications of that act. Choosing war is an absolute choice and we will war with them until every last man, woman, child, cattle, crops and stores have been utterly destroyed. This is done so that we cannot be accused of making such a war for gains of their properties, thus we destroy everything leaving nothing for us to gain. The land was already ours and they resided amongst us under stipulation that they reside peaceably and obey the Noahic Code. It is understandable that they will refuse that offer but a percentage may come to us and surrender desiring to live amongst us as we require and make themselves separate from those who desire complete war. That will be a difficult decision which will not likely be mine to make, bless Hashem for that favor. Were I to be in that position I would likely take them at their word but warn them that if even one were to break the agreement they would all pay as they had now been warned twice. But as things stand, there is no one person with whom any peace can be established. Abbas has adamantly exclaimed that the only peace he will accept is Israel destroyed and an Islamic State to be built on the ashes of the Jewish people who were slaughtered to the last one. This is the creed by which Abbas rules, this plus speaking at every opportunity declaring that the Palestinians must cleanse the land and the earth itself of the Jews such that all others may live as they please. What is the real shame is Abbas sees nothing wrong with what he demands and believes that by murdering the Jews he will reach a greater salvation. He believes that his religion demands such of him and the Muslim peoples. Those are not beliefs of a person with whom any form of peace can be attained and is the final nail in the coffin of the two state solution as almost everyone has decided to follow Abbas descending to the most base form of humanity short of cannibalism, genocide.
Some Ideas Never Die; Such as the Oslo Accords

Truly some ideas never die even when they have long passed their use-by-date. The Oslo Accords are one such set of ideas which died the day that President William Jefferson Clinton handed to Yasser Arafat, after beating Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak into complete submission, everything he had demanded and Arafat walked out without a word and started the Second Intifada. It was later revealed that Arafat had planned the Second Intifada as the Palestinian answer to not getting their demands at the Camp David negotiations and still insisted that Israeli resistance to a common peace was the reason for the violence. Over a thousand Israelis were murdered and tens of thousands were injured, many with permanent and severe damage from the bombings with bolts and screws lodged permanently next to their spines, hearts and other organs or jammed into their brains all inoperable due to location. Many lost limbs, an eye or both eyes and other disfigurements. The Second Intifada, on top of Arafat refusing to make peace even after his terms were met, defined the situation and should have been the post mortem for the Oslo Accords. Arafat's understudy and successor, Mahmoud Abbas, has often made clear to any willing to translate his Arabic speeches that the only peace he will allow Israel is the peace of the grave. As the pro-Palestinian protesters throughout Western countries chant ad-nauseam, "From the River to the Sea, Palestine must be free." The word 'free' in this chant has a double meaning, the obvious that all of Israel is Palestine and secondly that every Jew will have been eradicated as Palestine must be Judenrein. Abbas has flatly stated even in English that should they be forced into accepting a shared state beside Israel, it will simply serve as the launching pad for the remainder of the conquest and eradication of the Zionist Entity. Even his saying Israel is difficult for this man and his band of minions.
What is truly sad is not only the number of Western leaders who remain sold on the Oslo two states for two peoples principle; it is the number of Israeli military and intelligence leadership who also are still sold on these lies and deceptions. There never has been any Oslo agreement because the understanding of the two sides were as divergent as possible. Israel saw them as the opportunity for peace and cooperation and the Palestinian leadership, with the support of the Arab world behind them, saw it as taqiyyah, a deceit used against an infidel in order to advance Islamic interests and conquest. The concept of taqiyyah is well established and understood by any first year graduate student in Middle Eastern studies programs; and if not, they should find a different area of study. The problem is that peace is such a universal and central structure in Western thought and philosophies, as are negotiations and dealing honestly and forthrightly, that to believe that things are otherwise is difficult, though possible if one tries and concentrates on exactly what the other side says to their own people. What makes things more difficult is that the liberal leftist media and populations refuse to allow themselves, under any circumstance, to believe that peace might be impossible to attain in any situation. If the left today were faced with the onset of World War II, they would negotiate and negotiate until the free world consisted of some small atoll in the South Pacific surrounded by Japanese and German naval vessels, and they would be negotiating still. There is also the little fact that Israel is seen as the Jew amongst nations and as such has a separate and impossible set of expectations which are made worse by the leftist Jews, such as those who make up J-street and other similar groups, who also apply this absurd demand that Israel sacrifice and sacrifice with no end to how much or how far the sacrifice demanded be, as they are not the ones who will pay the price. Some have even gone so far as to claim, what do the Israelis have to lose in sacrificing for peace as they can always come and live in the United States. This is, in and of itself, an absurd piece of illogic not to mention, history has shown what happens when Jews face death and try to rely on the good graces of the Western nations.
We recently read an article on Politico targeting Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu over his disagreement with the outspoken and mostly retired military and intelligence corps, and how such a disagreement is leading Israel dangerously close to fascism. It was the author's, and we trust the editors' as well, that Israelis would be better led by its military and intelligence officers than under their elected leader. The article is titled Netanyahu vs. the Generals and went on and on endlessly stating the same tired logic as if repetition and quoting every last individual supporting the spitefulness against Netanyahu would eventually wear the reader down. The piece might actually be the opening shot across the bow announcing the candidacy of Ehud Barak for Prime Minister. Small hint to those in agreement, should Israelis have a choice between Ehud Barak and virtually any moderate or even extremist right wing politician, Barak would lose convincingly. Where his reputation is not nearly that of Guy Fawkes, the disasters attached to his time as Prime Minister preclude his ever holding that position for as long as Israelis have memories of his atrocious policy choices, of which the hasty and disorganized routing retreat from Lebanon is just the beginning of the highlight reel. For the record neither of us supported Likud and in one case, at least, Bibi Netanyahu was much of the reason why as there are numerous other Likud members who would very easily garner our votes, but that is up to the Likudnics to decide. We realize that changes take time, so time will tell.
British Mandate as prescribed division between Arab State of Jordan and Jewish State of Israel
As far as peace with the Palestinians, we need realize that the term Palestinian once meant the Jews residing under British Mandate rule while at those times the Arabs were known as Arabs or Palestinian Arabs as compared to Palestinian Jews. One also need remember that this was during the period when both Jordan and Israel were simply the Mandate. Eventually the plan was enacted and Jordan became the Arab State and Israel the Jewish State. The most obvious difference was Israel permitted Arabs, whether practicing Muslims, Christians, Jews or any other or no religion, to remain residing with full rights as citizens, while Jordan expelled any Jew ever to come within their area under their control. That was made most evident after they conquered by force of arms in an offensive war parts of Judea and Samaria, renamed it West Bank, and evicted every last Jew under pain of death, gifting their lands to people favored by the government and destroyed every Synagogue and Jewish religious academy within said lands. The adopting of Palestinian by the Arabs was just one part of their adoption of all of Jewish history with some simple adjustments in an effort to claim them and not the Israelites, the Jews, were the earliest surviving peoples from these areas. Anybody familiar with Judeo-Christian religions knows this to be a deceit and even more so if they are knowledgeable of Islamic and Arab history, as the Arabs did not venture forth from the Arabian Peninsula until the Seventh Century. That date is almost, if not, two millennia after the Israelites arrived from their Exodus from Egypt; one might be familiar with this as there is a book of the Old Testament with the same name. If we were to count from the times when Abraham first arrived in the land, we would need close to another half of a millennia if not more. Their deceit can only last as long as people continue to give their lies credence, which they do at their own peril. Such brings us to our next discussion, the awakening of the Western World.
For most of the past century plus the casualty of Islamic violence has been the Jewish communities in the area of Israel both before the birth of the nation in 1948 and continuously afterwards starting with the invasion by multiple armies the morning of her birth. India and Russia had rather publicly covered conflicts and numerous African nations have also been subjected to violence as have much of the Balkans. Then there have been the intra-Islamic violence. It has only been the turn of the Twenty-First Century which has brought continued and sustained Islamic violence to the Western World. What is going to be instructive is exactly how the developed world reacts to the onslaught of Islamic violence. Of further interest will be whether or not their views and demands upon Israel are altered even in the slightest as a result of these experiences. Russia has shown Israel a fair degree of respect and freedom to act as necessary while not giving full measure as they also keep relations with the Muslim nations such as with Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Iran and Syria; for it is with Syria they hold their Mediterranean warm water Atlantic Naval ports.
Beyond this, the longest standing restrictions on Islamic activities belong with Japan. Many are unaware but Japan has always refused Muslims permanent residence status in their lands. Further, Muslims may not own property, may not operate a business and the worship of Islam is banned. Needless to point out but no Mosque may ever be built on Japanese soil. Muslim tourism is permitted but any Muslim tourist caught conducting any form of Islamic instructions or otherwise attempting to spread the word of Islam is summarily and immediately deported along with their entire family; and if with a group, then the entire group is deported. The Japanese treat Islam as if it were a dread plague that once taking a foothold could threaten life on their islands. If the news is accurate, and we see no reason to disbelieve our sources, Cuba has recently refused permission for a Mosque to be built on their island, Cuba, that's right, Cuba! Angola is but the first in alphabetical order of African nations enacting some limit if not outright ban on Islam.
In Europe the latest trend has been in opposition to Angela Markel's open door policy for Muslims with Norway having deported many hundreds resulting in a better than 50% drop in felonies. This is allowing their police to attend to other functions rather than putting out crime emergencies twenty-four-seven for the first time since the 'refugees' began arriving. Additionally there have been reports of attacks against Mosques and Muslims with some areas becoming so unfriendly that the Muslims are deporting themselves back to their home nations. The Czech Republic has flat banned Islam from their country declaring it to be an evil. Muslims in Ireland have reached the conclusion that they are less than welcome and in Belfast, as a start, the Muslims have been departing for home sweet home and this appears to be the trend across all of Northern Ireland. The British Home Secretary is preparing legislations which, though not expressly stating their application to Muslims, are aimed at curtailing anti-social behavior and allowing greater leeway in deporting or using other lesser methods to control an out of hand situation. The Polish Defense League has issued a warning to Muslims against their continuing certain behaviors and sixteen states have drafted legislation banning Sharia. A number of states in America are entertaining laws banning Sharia or any foreign code of laws all aimed at preventing the use of Sharia. China has imprisoned twenty-two Imams for preaching hate and anti-China themes and has executed eighteen jihadists. China is additionally stamping out any campaigns for separatism especially in the largely Islamic western province of Xinjiang. Muslim prayers are banned in government buildings and schools in China. Our last example of such measures comes from the Netherlands where a group of Ministers of Parliament are calling for the closure and destruction of all Mosques. One Minister stated "We want to clean Netherlands of hateful Islam." He did not differentiate hateful Islam from any other form of Islam. Speaking on behalf of the right wing Party for Freedom, a nationalist party, Minister of the Dutch Parliament Machiel De Graaf stated, "All Mosques in the Netherlands should be shut down. Without Islam the Netherlands would be a wonderful, safe country to live in, as it was before the arrival of Muslim 'refugees'."
The world appears to slowly be awakening to the real face of Islam; a violent and unruly cult more desirous of ruling the world than of acting in what the rest of the world believes is a religious manner. Every other previous imperialist religion, Christianity, Shinto, Hindu and any others, have all been reformed and now stand side by side with all these religions seeking peaceful coexistence and mutual assistance. The exception to this rule is obvious, Islam. When Mosques are discovered in numerous countries to contain more rifles, grenades, bombs and bomb making material than prayer rugs and prayer books, then there is a definite problem. As the developed world realizes, along with the rest of the world, this threat for what it is, it is hoped that they will apply their learned knowledge to the situation in Israel. This could finally allow the solution which should have been applied immediately after the Six Day War, Israel attaining her originally promised borders, which includes the Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea, and those previous Jordanian citizens and their families deported to the Arab nation of their choosing willing to receive them, or into Syria. The double standard cannot be continued after the truth has been driven home that Islam does not play well with others and is treacherous to the continued health of any nation it inhabits. What is good for the European nations and the world in general must, in all fairness, also be permitted Israel. To do otherwise is pure anti-Semitism, and this time that is an accurate accusation and an accurate application of the terminology.

Right on the heels of the disastrous French initiative taking confab of twenty plus Foreign Ministers last week where they could not even join together to condemn Israel, let alone demand Israel commit some form of concessions once again to restart the moribund peace process, French Foreign Minister Jean-Marc Ayrault now had the audacity to lecture Israel about the extra security measures taken after the deadly Tel Aviv terror shooting. His claim was by cancelling the work and other passage permissions for the extended family of the terrorists and the cancellation of the Ramadan liberal permissions in response to the attack which murdered four and wounded a score more was simply collective punishment and would lead to more terror and exacerbate an already difficult situation. You can read about and see videos and pictures of the actual assault and aftermath in our article on the terror attack and other related events Look Back and Forward to Coming Incitements for War. The steps Israel took were the same basic types as any sane and rational government would take facing the same situation. The terrorists were cousins from a family which already has a terror history of radicalization with an Uncle of both young men still serving in an Israeli prison for terrorist assault he took part in previously. Israel went so far as to freeze work entry visas for some 204 members of the attackers' extended family. Israel went further and rescinded approximately eighty-three-thousand general entry permits given to Arabs from Judea and Samaria for Ramadan without running security checks on the vast majority. To run individual checks on this many people would take far longer than the Ramadan holiday and cancellation was a safety precaution, not a punishment. Goodwill gestures to Gaza Arabs, including travel permits to Jerusalem to participate in Ramadan prayers on the Temple Mount, were also rescinded, especially after the reaction of the Hamas government and their sister terror organization Islamic Jihad support for the terror attack and threat that more of the same was imminent. To the French Foreign Minister such actions were overreacting like the French are all of a sudden security experts on how to prevent terrorist attacks. Let's look at the recent record, oh, yes; Paris just had a slight problem in this area, didn't they. The reasoning behind the French reaction against Israel's steps in the aftermath of this horrific attack was blame the victim, side with the terrorists and maybe, just maybe the terrorists will think the French are so wonderful they will not strike there ever again. Talk about throwing everybody else to the alligators so that they will be eaten last thinking which has such a great track record when it comes to terrorism.
Adding to the preposterousness of French Foreign Minister Jean-Marc Ayrault hyperventilating over Israeli security measures was the location from where it came. He was in the United Nations to take part in a Security Council debate on the protection of civilians in peacekeeping. Talking about the United Nations, on Friday the United Nations Human Rights Chief Zeid Ra'ad al-Hussein spoke along with the rest of his office to express how so "deeply concerned" by Israel's response they were while only offering a mild condemnation of the actual terror attack itself or concern for the families of the slain or for a recovery of the injured. These were not the exception but when the terrorist attack was condemned in equivocating terms, it was more often than not followed immediately with stronger terms denouncing Israeli actions as horrid overreactions and in the wording of the office of Mr. al-Hussein, "includes measures that may amount to prohibited collective punishment and will only increase the sense of injustice and frustration felt by Palestinians in this very tense time."
Meanwhile the French Foreign Weasel, we mean Foreign Minister, did we really say Weasel? Anyway, the foreign minister further stated, "There must be a political initiative from the international community to create conditions conducive to appeasement and a return to negotiations," according to AFP. France is always working for the security of Israel." Really now, and were not you the leading figure right next to French President François Gérard Georges Nicolas Hollande calling for a ministerial meeting last week in Paris to discuss what concessions Israel could take to prove their honest desires for peace on top of near countless previous concessions to do the exact same desire for peace? Did not your office recently threaten Israel with recognizing an Arab State called Palestine and setting their borders unilaterally as if the French ran the world? Are you not that same French Foreign Minister head whose office is working furiously with other parts of the French government to find some way of punishing Israel in order for President François Hollande can show he is on top of taking steps to prevent further terror attacks like the one recently in Paris and before that two others including the Charlie Hebdo murders where Israeli Prime Minister flew to Paris to state himself in French, "Je suis Charlie" and march with the other dignitaries? Oh, I remember, he was placed a number of rows back while Mahmoud Abbas was given front and center of the processions for the pictures and there were articles claiming that the Israeli Prime Minister was a news hound just trying to get himself into the picture like the pushy petty Jew that he was, that was the reaction expressed out of Paris after the picture below was released. Who again was being given the glory hound position and why was he smiling after a dozen people and more were just murdered in Paris and all others had their serious faces on as was appropriate; that clown Abbas was doing one of the only two things he knows how to do, condemn Israel and smile like a jackal when before cameras even at a remembrance for terrorist victims murdered in the name of Islam.
Mahmoud Abbas smirking while at remembrance rally for Charlie Hebdo in Paris after terror slaughter of a dozen writers and cartoonists for the satirical magazine.
The two-facedness of your condemnation immediately after siding with the terrorists and attempting to give them a state taken out of the gut of Israel from which to paralyze Israeli industry and threaten directly seventy percent of her population, you then turn around and condemn Israel for reacting to terrorists who came from that very same area you meant to make a terrorist state from. They came from a small town just outside Hevron, a small town which could not help but celebrate their little warriors with fireworks and candies as two of their own gunned down four unarmed civilians at a market and when encountering Israeli security forces who were armed, they dropped their weapons and attempted to act as victims themselves. The one shot while escaping was shot in such a manner as to prevent his escape but not to kill, a form of shooting to arrest rather than center of body mass which requires the security personnel in Israel to take additional training to master such a difficult task. In one of the videos at our aforementioned article you can witness the Israeli security personnel shooting the suspect three or four times and the resulting generally non-life-threatening wounds placed him at the same hospital being treated by the same Israeli physicians as were the victims of he and his cousin's terror spree where they opened fire in a crowded market full of unarmed people in Tel Aviv one nice evening, well, it was nice until those two jackals, and we apologize for insulting jackals everywhere, opened fire and then immediately threw their weapons down, one of them after one of the market patrons kicked his gun from his grasp breaking it making it unusable, and attempted the innocent victim routine as they knew that police and Israeli armed security personnel would soon arrive and they were not prepared to take on anyone who would be capable of shooting back. Then they ran and we are waiting for the first complaint that the Israeli security personnel shot an unarmed terrorist making him a victim of Israeli brutalism. The vermin, again, vermin, we mean no disparaging but the words for these terror swine, now we need apologize to swine, was running from the scene and it was entirely likely he was still armed thus shooting rather than take further chances with loss of innocent lives warranted his actions. Let us state further that this security personnel came running towards the sounds of gunfire, not away or hiding in place but running towards a situation more than likely which would place them in danger themselves, a rare breed amongst humankind and we have numerous just like them here in Israel and we are thankful for every last one of these brave and selfless individuals. As far as for the French Foreign Minister and President attempting to raise their standing with the French people on the backs and lives of the Israeli people, we remember the case of Alfred Dreyfus and can plainly see that the French leadership has not moved all that far from their pedigree of that day. Let us conclude, "Nous sommes Dreyfus" and in his memory, that of French perfidy then and now.

Accenture has launched an employee blogging portal in Holland. Most of the blogs are in Dutch but there are quite a few in English. I took note of some blogs on topics I am interested in such as Geoffrey Stoel blogging on telecom and gadgets, Rieta Aliredjo reflecting on consultant's hectic life, Remco Harmsen on business intelligence and Jort Possel on marketing. Good initiative to showcase the firm's thought leadership and attract talents. Do we expect to see official Accenture blogs in UK or US soon?
Via Micropersuasion, who was tipped by Pablo Halkyard although I could not find his original post on the subject. Nonetheless, I am referencing his blog. Here is why: "The Private Sector Development Blog (PSD Blog) gathers together news, resources and ideas about the role of private enterprise in fighting poverty". Great resources for my forthcoming economy classes!
Joel, thanks for taking noctice!
This is the first Accenture weblog in this form. There is a US/Global weblog (http://www.accenture.com/Global/ Research_and_Insights/AccentureBlogs.htm) but this has quite a different setup.

Ascendant Frontier To Divide Forces
Several days ago, high-ranking Ascendant Frontier members were notified of an imminent split in their alliance as the Dirty Deeds Corporation, along with Eye of God, planned to start a new alliance that would claim the Impass region. An anonymous source with access to this information has put forth a summary, partly confirmed in a conversation with Steel Rat, ASCN Director.
Dirty Deeds Corp and Eye of God plan to present the inhabitants of Impass with two options: joining the new alliance or staying in Ascendant Frontier. According to the source, both alliances will remain friendly towards each other after the separation, retaining full access to each other's space and stations. Ascendant Frontier members who wish to operate in Impass are allowed to do this without joining the new alliance because of the positive standing between the two alliances.
Ascendant Frontier intends to invite more alliances into an agreement where members will protect each other from invasion. Among the possible candidates are the alliances KOS and Tribal Souls. At the same time, Ascendant Frontier will also seek to expand their membership after the departure of Dirty Deeds and Eye of God is finalised. The negotiations with these corporations started some time ago.
According to sources, several high-ranking members of the Ascendant Frontier believe that the split will make both alliances weaker and that the friendship won't last.
"The enemies of ASCN will perceive this as a weakness, a crack in the structure," stated an ASCN director who wished to remain anonymous. "I think ... we're putting blood in the water, as it were, and we're going to feel it down the road."
"CYVOK and Steel Rat balanced each other out. The first was being too optimistic, the last just wants to kill anything that moves. Most of the industrial corporations that have powered ASCN are going to stay with Cyvok and DDC is going to lose a lot of that base. I think ... they're going to find out just how hard it is to sustain a huge empire like this without your industry being up to part."
Steel Rat, CEO of DDC, is positive that the two alliances will be able to work closely together without any problems and that people who expect ASCN and the DDC alliance to be weak will be surprised.
He stated: "I guess I should make it clear here, this change is not a hostile change. Cyvok and I both agree that we can work better together as separate entities than as one. It allows us both to grow and create what we feel is best for our alliances. We have our plans and goals still firmly in place. In many ways, we see this change as reaching those goals faster and now neither one is slowed down by the other."
The new alliance is expected to be formally created before long.

We live in a world that is filled with fear. Turn on the nightly news and you will have no shortage of things to be afraid of. Fear sells, I suppose. In fact, in 2017, movies in the horror genre made more than $1 billion at the U.S. box office alone. So, yeah, fear sells.
At the same time, in the "church world", it seems that we are on a "no fear" kick. There are countless songs that explore the idea of being fearless, or having no fear. Is that right? As Christians, should our goal be to live in complete lack of fear?
In Acts, 8 and at the beginning of Acts 9, a man named Saul of Tarsus caused the early church to live in a lot of fear. He was constantly breathing out threats against the church and had the authority to drag Christians out of their own homes and throw them in prison for their faith.
In Acts 9, we read about Saul's miraculous conversion. He then becomes one of Christianity's biggest advocates! Is the fear gone, at that point? Well, not exactly.
They no longer had the fear of Saul coming into their home and drafting them off to prison, but they still had fear. They actually had good, healthy, righteous fear.
Our goal is not actually to be fearless, or to have no fear. Our goal is to walk in the fear of the Lord… but also in the comfort of the Holy Spirit.
Peter, who was Jewish, encountered a severe shaking in his understanding of God's heart in Acts 10. This is a huge chapter! This is the chapter in which a transformation takes place in the minds of the apostles. They begin to grasp God's heart not just for the Jewish nation, but for the Gentiles, as well.
While Peter is in Joppa, he receives a bizarre vision from the Lord three times. In the vision, Peter sees four-footed animals and reptiles of the earth, and birds of the sky -all of which were traditionally "unclean" for Jews to eat. But in the vision, he is told to kill and eat these "unclean" creatures.
While Peter is trying to understand the vision, he is interrupted by men who had been sent by Cornelius, an upright and God-fearing centurion -an "unclean" Gentile!
Two very important things happened that day!
2. Christians we're FINALLY able to eat bacon!
Acts 11 begins with Peter defending his new position in Jerusalem.

There is something strangely noble and also delicate about the emaciated young ragamuffin boy that the handsome Hugo, Lord Lynke, finds himself employing as his new page on his undercover mission to Spain on behalf of the King of England. The page he has brought with from England had just been taken ill and so has to return home. The 'boy' is named Venturo. In fact 'he' is Ventura the lost daughter of a noble and rich Spanish dynasty. Lord Lynke's task is to marry the richest and most beautiful woman in Spain to ensure peace between the two countries which are invariably at war with each other. She is the proud, imperious and dangerous seductress Doña Alcira and this marriage would prove no great challenge for a Nobleman of Lord Lynke's calibre and renown. Except that he faces Don Carlos, a powerful and unscrupulous suitor determined to erase any competition for Doña Alcira's hand. She has a glamorous and dangerous matador as her current lover and employs a besotted and sinister dwarf who she uses as her assassin. The sweet adventure soon turns sour. And when young Ventura overhears those who would murder the Lord of her heart, she realises that her own heart has no life without him.

HARO BELLO, Camila et al. Morbimortality of elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy in a university hospital. Rev. Méd. Urug. [online]. 2021, vol.37, n.1, e202. Epub 01-Mar-2021. ISSN 0303-3295. http://dx.doi.org/10.29193/rmu.37.1.2.
laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is the most frequent surgery of the digestive tract. Despite it being considered a safe procedure, morbidity is reported to be up to 10%, there being no record at the national level.
to describe the incidence of complications and morbimortality of elective LC in a non-selected population group in a university hospital.
retrospective observational study of patients who underwent elective LC between January 1, 2010 and December 31, 2019 in the Surgical Clinic B at the Clinicas Hospital and the surgery assistance Teaching Unit at Español Hospital.
The following variables were included: demographics, surgical diagnosis, conversion, morbimortality, reoperations and readmissions.
1.499 CL were found, average age was 49 years old (15-87), 79% were women, main bile duct lithiasis in 210 cases (17%), 25 conversions (1.7%). There were 64 complications (4.3%), the incidence being significantly higher in patients with main bile duct lithiasis (2.8% vs 7.6%, p 0,01). Two bile duct-hepatic lesions (Hannover type D and C), both detected and repaired in the same surgery, and three visceral lesions (0.20 %).
There were 16 readmissions (1.07%) and 9 reoperations (0.6%). Two patients died (0.13%) in the postoperative: decompensated chronic liver failure and post Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) severe pancreatitis.
CL in a non-selected population at the university service analysed in the study proved to be a safe procedure, and complications, reoperation and readmission rates found in the study are positively compared to those reported in literature. The presence of lithiasis in the bile duct was associated with postoperative complications and a greater severity.
Palabras clave : Laparoscopic cholecystectomy; Postoperative complications; Morbidity and mortality.

SG Bochum 31, pełna nazwa Schachgesellschaft Bochum 1931 – niemiecki klub szachowy, założony w 1931 roku jako SK Altenbochum, od 1964 roku funkcjonuje pod obecną nazwą. W sezonie 2019/2020 klub występuje w Oberlidze.

Historia
Korzenie klubu sięgają 1929 roku, kiedy to założono sekcję szachową Katolickiego Stowarzyszenia Młodzieży w Altenbochum. W 1945 roku klub został zreorganizowany przez Antona Möniga. W 1961 roku klub został przeniesiony do centrum Bochum, a trzy lata później zmieniono jego nazwę na SG Bochum 31. W latach 70. SG Bochum awansował do Bundesligi. W sezonie 1980/1981 szachiści zajęli trzecie miejsce w lidze. W 1999 roku zawodnik klubu, Leonid Kritz, zdobył mistrzostwo świata juniorów do lat 16. W tym samym roku wskutek ograniczenia wsparcia finansowego od Alcatela i innych sponsorów klub popadł w problemy finansowe i dobrowolnie opuścił Bundesligę. Powrót SG Bochum do Bundesligi był kilkakrotnie odrzucany z przyczyn finansowych.

Offset was supposed to be in Toronto last night performing with Drake and the rest of the Migos.
But their show had postponed, allowing Set to jet down to New York and watch his wife Cardi B open the VMAs.
Cardi didn't have much a monologue. But she did joke like she was about to reveal their infant girl Kulture to the crowd. The punchline was she was actually cuddling an MTV Moonman statue, not a little baby.
Offset didn't much appreciate the high profile prank.
You could see the "mad" in his face when it happened.

Having to endure certain illness or conditions can make daily life difficult to live. There are those conditions such as neuropathy that complicate an already complicated life. Neuropathy is a complex condition of the nerves that affects the nerves ability to function correctly due to the damage that has occurred to the peripheral nervous system. The peripheral nervous system is the communicator between the brain, spinal cord and nerve cell endings. When damage to the peripheral nervous system occurs, the brain takes longer to communicate to the nerve cell endings leaving the neuropathic patient vulnerable to injury.
There is much debate about the various causes of neuropathy and to be honest there are several unexplained reasons why a person may develop neuropathy pains and symptoms. Most neuropathic patients wonder after diagnoses if there was some way they could have avoided this miserable diagnosis and the answer is a complicated one. Take for example the condition of diabetes, there are some individuals who naturally reject insulin and so they are unable to avoid the diagnosis where as other develop diabetes due to a poor diet. Diabetes is one of those conditions that if not treated or managed could lead to a health downward spiral.
When diagnosed with a condition such as diabetes, there are certain lifestyle changes that have to be made in order for the diabetic to be able to function while suffering with this lifelong disease. Working around the diagnoses of diabetes often entails a proper eating guide, maintaining a healthy diet will keep blood sugar levels where they need to be in order to prevent diabetic neuropathy.
Diabetic neuropathy is when nerve cell damage occurs as a result of high levels of blood sugar in the blood. When diabetic neuropathy develops, the individual begins to experience painful sensations in the lower extremities such as tingling, burning, numbness and needle like pricking when walking. Sensations such as the few listed begin to worsen over time unless some form of diabetic neuropathy treatment is had. Diabetic neuropathy treatment could be as simple as managing blood sugar or more entailed such as the implementation of insulin and prescription medications.


All has gone well, so far.
They gave him the "goofy juice" and he proceeded to get very, very goofy.
Then they wheeled him back to surgery.
And I held his hand until he fell asleep.
Then I walked out, down the hallway, and proceeded to bawl like a baby.
Many here enduring surgeries for reasons so much more pressing than Jude. But somehow, my heart still hurts.
So grateful to know that the Lord has him in the palm of His hand.
You are absolutely allowed to cry–it's a mama's priveledge! Know that He has you in the palm of his hand, too, and you, your baby boy, and the medical team are being covered in prayer from here. Thank you for posting; I've been thinking about you all morning.
We are crying and praying with you!
Any surgery is a big one when your child is the one being wheeled down the hall.
Praying for a fast recovery and an uneventful trip home!
That goofy juice is great stuff, even for adults.Glad things went well.
Haven't been here for a while & looks like I've got a lot to catch up on. Hope Jude recovers soon. I'm barely getting my first daughter so I can not begin to imagine a sick baby or let alone surgeries. You are as strong woman, and a wonderful mother to your children. God Bless!
I don't know…..seeing him 'fall asleep' was really awful for me.
His toothless grin is precious! Praying here for a complete recovery.

Agricultural Management on the NetBeans Platform
Geertjan Wielenga
Oct. 14, 09 · Java Zone ·
Ram Vijapurapu (@rvijapurapu) lives in Auckland, New Zealand, and is co-founder & technical director of FieldLinx. The majority of his work relates to software design & development.
Below follows an interview about FieldLinx and about its usage of the NetBeans Platform.
Hi Ram. Please tell us a bit about FieldLinx?
Founded in 2004, FieldLinx is a creative software development company with specialist focus on building end-to-end mobile & web solutions. Our solutions cater to diverse industries.
Over the years, we have developed many clever mobile & web software solutions which brought about huge cost savings and productivity gains for companies who use our solutions. We also provide consultancy services for organisations who intend to bring in productivity within their organisation.
What's the FarmLinx Software Suite about?
FarmLinx is a software solution which helps Agri-Consultants to better manage their data-collection and collate the collected information for further analysis. The mobile version, which runs on a PDA (Palm & WinMo), works as data-collection mechanism.
The desktop version runs the analysis and data management:
Finally, there is a facility to output the farm report as an OpenOffice document.
Here's the workflow:
FarmLinx was initially targeted at Agri-Consultants, while these days we are able to provide solutions directly to the farmer for better management of their farms, via http://www.farmlinx.com.
Why does the desktop version run on the NetBeans Platform?
The version 1 of FarmLinx was developed using plain Swing. As and when we needed to add new features, we ended up with a non-modular monolithic application which was becoming very hard to manage. Hence we set out to build a modular application.
The NetBeans Platform provided us with the opportunity to build a modular application from day one & to integrate it with our existing application, without needing a major re-write.
Also, as our business was progressing further we wanted to integrate with other third-party solutions. The NetBeans module system came in very handy because we didn't need to build our own plugin framework since it comes out of the box with the NetBeans Platform. That simplified our work significantly. The NetBeans Platform is fairly standardised, hence it took us very little effort to convey the required information to third parties.
How did you choose to use the NetBeans Platform?
We had two choices: Eclipse RCP and NetBeans Platform. We chose the NetBeans Platform as we were able to port components of our existing application almost immediately without a major re-write.
Along with that, the NetBeans Platform has a pretty straightforward set of APIs and it was very easy to port to it.
Generally, we didn't want to take up the route of SWT as we programmers were more experienced with Swing.
How was it to develop this application?
FarmLinx is a fairly large sized project and had way too many modules to begin with. The conversion project took about a month, including the mobile software.
The initial plugin trial involved us going through a few iterations, but all in all it was a happy makeover. The plugin framework needed us to make some specific threading changes within our application -- that is probably the biggest challenge we had and at the end of the day it was nothing. :).
There were three programmers involved in the project, me included.
Please say something about the 3rd party libraries used, such as JFreeChart.
Derby (JavaDB) for the Database
JFreeChart for the charting
OpenOffice (UNO / UDK) for Reporting
Apache POI for file conversions from other applications (we could have used OpenOffice here as well, but POI was simplistic and did the job well)
Also we used the Swing DnD framework which allows us to grab tables of other websites and paste it directly into the Application / NetBeans Platform
NetBeans Platform for the desktop application framework
We split the key features into different modules, which saved us a lot of time and effort.
Is it now in production? What do its users think about it?
This solution has been in production since 2005, hence you will see many screenshots are still using NetBeans Platform 5.0.
The solution has been very productive for our clients - it saved them a lot of time and effort. It improved their productivity many fold.
Do you have some tips and tricks for using the NetBeans Platform?
Much technical interest has been shown in our integration with OpenOffice. I should say that is one of the features which we are very proud of.
We used a template-based OpenOffice document and simply used the Java UNO based connection to populate the template. We used the Bookmark feature of OpenOffice Doc to place bookmarks in the document and then simply populated them using the UNO connection. You can find this forum post very helpful in this regard:

The consultants had different requirements for providing Reports for different kinds of customers/seasons and using the OpenOffice based report generator served this purpose very well.
Though we were very tempted to integrate OpenOffice directly inside the NetBeans Platform, as a window via OfficeBean, we had to keep it simple as our customers were accustomed to using OpenOffice as it is, rather than being part of another application. But you can always do this if that suits your requirements.
And what's new about the application and what's coming up in the next releases?
We have not been doing much development on the FarmLinx Desktop Application. We've been focusing mainly on our web based FarmLinx Application which caters to Farmers directly.
That said, we have used NetBeans Platform for many small projects and prototypes. For example, we are at the moment building a prototype of a Fleet Management Desktop Applications, which works in harmony with the Web based FleetLinx framework.
This desktop application is from ground up... built on the NetBeans Platform!
Thanks Ram and keep in touch with your ongoing NetBeans Platform developments!

9/11 first responder who testified with Jon Stewart enters hospice care

WASHINGTON -- A 9/11 first responder with liver cancer, who testified last week before a U.S. House of Representatives subcommittee, has entered hospice care, according to multiple reports.
The New York Post says former NYPD detective Luis Alvarez, who responded to Ground Zero, confirmed the heartbreaking news on Facebook, saying there was "nothing else the doctors can do to fight the cancer."
Alvarez and comedian Jon Stewart made headlines for their emotional pleas for lawmakers to support the 9/11 Victim Compensation Fund. Alvarez showed up to testify before a nearly empty panel despite having chemotherapy the next day. His cancer has been linked to the work he did after the 2001 terror attacks.
Fox News reports Alvarez said he was "still fighting" on Wednesday.
After Alvarez and Stewart's testimony, the House Judiciary Committee voted to permanently reauthorize the victims' fund. It now goes to the full House for a vote. If it clears the House, it would head to the Senate for consideration. It's unclear if it will be brought up for a vote on the Senate floor. According to CBS News, Sen. Mitch McConnell said he "will look at it."
