According to the Israeli defense minister, residents of the Jewish state's area populated mostly by Arabs "have no connection with this country." [He] has stated that the Arabs residing in the Wadi Ara region "do not belong" to the Jewish state and called for a boycott.

"They should understand that they are not wanted here, they are not part of us," the minister told the Army Radio.

Commenting on Saturday's protests in the region over US President Donald Trump's decision to recognize Jerusalem as the Jewish state's capital, Lieberman said that Wadi Ara residents "have no connection with this country," adding that the riots are "intolerable."

"So I am calling for a boycott of Wadi Ara. Don't go there and don't buy there. They need to understand that it is impossible to demonstrate with Hezbollah flags, Palestinian flags and pictures of [Hezbollah leader Hassan] Nasrallah. To accept billions from the National Insurance [Institute] and to also destroy us from within," he said.

Comment: Headstrong with their 'win' Israeli leaders can't seem to contain their spew, nor regulate their thinking. True colors are surfacing in both Israel and the Arab/Muslim minions as the potential for an upcoming confrontation takes shape.

Czech President Zeman brands EU 'cowards' over Trump's Jerusalem recognition

Czech President Milos Zeman, known for his controversial statements, has called EU countries "cowards" over their response to Donald Trump's recognizing Jerusalem as the Israeli capital. He is the only world leader to endorse the move, other than Netanyahu.

"The European Union, cowards, are doing all they can so a pro-Palestinian terrorist movement can have supremacy over a pro-Israeli movement," Zeman said on Saturday, as cited by local media. He was speaking at the conference of the Movement of Freedom and Democracy (SPD), a eurosceptic and anti-immigration party.

The eurosceptic Zeman is the only world leader so far, apart from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, to have officially welcomed Donald Trump's recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. On Thursday Zeman said he is "truly happy" with Trump's declaration, saying that the Czech Republic may also follow the lead of US in that matter.

Comment: See what EU foreign policy chief Federica Mogherini says about this issue:

The EU cautions US on the 'consequences' of moving its embassy to Jerusalem

It'll be interesting to see how many others endorse it - it's certainly a handy ticket to getting a certain powerful clique on your side...

Jerusalem: 'The house of peace' has become the red line for Muslims

To Netanyahu it is Yerushalayim (city of peace) in Yiddish; to Muslims it is Bayt Al-Maqdis (the house of peace). To Google and now to Trump Jerusalem (city of peace) is the capital of Israel.

On December 7, 2017 Yeni Safak, a conservative Turkish daily newspaper and strong supporter of President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan reported Erdoğan as saying that Trump's Jerusalem step 'will throw the region into a ring of fire', 'Trump's declaration aims to stir up the region, not to bring peace,' and that "Jerusalem, Mr. Trump, is the red line for Muslims". No empty words from a NATO partner and a country that has recognized Israel.

"It is not possible to understand what Trump wants to achieve," Erdoğan said in the capital Ankara before leaving for a visit to Greece.

"The (US) announcement has the potential to send us backwards to even darker times than the ones we are already living in" Federika Mogherini, EU Foreign Policy chief added. She shared German Chancellor Angela Merkel's sentiments that the European Union had a "clear and united position" on the issue: "We believe that the only realistic solution to the conflict between Israel and Palestine is based on two states and with Jerusalem as the capital of both."


Comment: Is the 2-state solution realistic? Entrenched wishful thinking? Who is going to make this happen? Surely not Israel and the Palestinians have been incapacitated to do so by themselves. Absent a unifying challenge, the Muslim world has, so far, not stepped up.


Comment: How does an ancient city with proven historic origins suddenly become someone else's exclusive and bonafide capitol because a third party publicly says so? Trump has no authority to decide the fate of this (not-American) city unless there is a consensus of belief that he can.

Lebanon urges Arab League to sanction US for Jerusalem proclamation and reverse its decision

Arab League nations should pressure the US to reverse its decision to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, Lebanon's foreign minister told a gathering in Cairo, which condemned the move as "dangerous and unacceptable."

Pre-emptive measures (must be) taken against the decision, beginning with diplomatic measures, then political, then economic and (then) financial sanctions," Gebran Bassil said Saturday at a meeting of Arab League foreign ministers in Egypt's capital, as cited by Reuters.

The Arab League's foreign ministers convened an emergency meeting in Cairo, following a Palestinian and Jordanian request to forge a united response to Trump's recognition of Jerusalem as Israel's capital, and the US' plans to relocate its embassy to the Holy City.

Discussing ways to deal with the new American policy, the Secretary-General of the Arab League, Ahmed Aboul-Gheit, and Palestinian Foreign Minister Riyad al-Maliki called on the international community to recognize the State of Palestine with East Jerusalem as its capital, AP reported.

"The decision amounts to the legalization of occupation," said Aboul-Gheit, while al-Maliki urged the League to submit a draft resolution to the United Nations Security Council condemning the US decision. Wednesday's move by President Donald Trump sparked massive protests across the Arab world and elsewhere.

Comment: The Trump announcement has become a flash point to codify all non-Israel factions into a grand union of sorts, the strength and breadth of its rebound yet to be determined.

Luis Gutierrez is the poster boy for the DC swamp. Being a corrupt Democrat from the corrupt Democrat state of Illinois, his swamp credentials are unquestioned.

A card-carrying swamp rat for 24 years, Gutierrez has announced his retirement from the House, which translated into liberal Democrat, reads: "I have been caught with my hand in the cookie jar and am beating a hasty retreat."

Whether he is sucked down the swamp drain or crawls out of the swamp on his own and goes away, President Trump and America could not be more grateful to Gutierrez for the good riddance.

Gilead Sher, Israel's chief peace negotiator with the Palestinians at Camp David (2000) tells Gilad Halpern and Dahlia Scheindlin at the Tel Aviv Review [1]: "My aim is not to resolve the conflict. My aim is to secure a Jewish democratic Israel . . . the Zionist vision that came true 70 years ago." If you ever wonder, why is there no peace with the Palestinians, you need look no further than this.

Gilead Sher, is an attorney and served as Israel's chief negotiator with the Palestinians under Prime Minister Ehud Barak (1999-2001) for the Sharm el Sheik Agreement [2], the Camp David Accord [3], and the Taba Agreement [4]. Today Sher heads the Center for Applied Negotiations at Tel Aviv University's Institute for National Security Studies. The program discussed Sher's co-edited book Negotiating in Times of Conflict [5], which offers a panorama of perspectives on how to overcome obstacles in peace negotiations, looking at examples from around the world. The Institute does good and valuable work and Sher has helpful insights to offer. But when it comes to Israel, Sher's focus appears to be all tactics and manipulating advantage. Based on this interview, justice is not the focus.

Turkey issues arrest warrant for ex-CIA, Fetullah Gülen supporter Graham Fuller

Graham Fuller Fethullah Gulen CIA
Graham Fuller is closely associated with Fethullah Gülen, “former CIA employee,” working in the Middle East for 20 years and wanted to use the Gülen influence in Russia.
The Office of the Istanbul Prosecutor has issued arrest warrants for two "former" CIA agents, accusing them of involvement in the failed July 2016 coup attempt against the government of President Recep Tayyip Erdogan. US media and various Washington think-tanks have dismissed the charges as "implausible" and a "likely tit-for-tat" response of Erdogan for the arrest by US authorities of Reza Zarrab, a Turkish-Iranian gold trader accused of violating US sanctions against Iran. Clearly is there is far more behind the accusations than is being said so far.

On December 1, Turkish prosecutors issued an arrest warrant for Graham E. Fuller, former head of the CIA's National Intelligence Council and former CIA head of Middle East and East Asia operations. The warrant claims Fuller was in the vicinity of Istanbul the night of the coup attempt at a meeting with another top "former" CIA person, Henri Barkey. It claims both CIA veterans were meeting at the five-star Splendid Hotel on the island of Büyükada some 20 minutes boat ride from Istanbul.

What's notable about the charge is the degree of involvement of Fuller with the reclusive Turkish cult leader, Fetullah Gülen, now in exile at an estate in Saylorsburg, Pennsylvania since he was forced to flee Turkey in 1998 to escape trial for treason against the state.

Comment: Fetullah Gülen is a shadowy figure who entertains dreams of world domination. Unlike most who only dream, he has methodically worked for decades building a world-wide organization and making political connections to achieve that goal

Broke millennials sell blood just to survive!

There is no doubt, in a period where burdensome student loans and wage stagnation are crushing the hopes of achieving the American dream while living in their parents' basements, the millennial generation is struggling to survive.

In recent times, we have explained how this generation is selling sex on the internet in exchange for money to pay bills. Across the United States, there could be upwards 2.5 million college students selling sex on a website to cover expenses (see: Millions Of Millennials Could Be Trading Sex For Their Next Debt Payment - Here's How) or there is a new trend with millennial women, auctioning their virginities to the highest bidder (see: Abu Dhabi Businessman Pays $2.9 Million For 19-Year-Old Model's Virginity.) If it's sex, the millennial generation has made it a commodity, using the power of the internet to leverage the sale.

Besides the out of control sex advertisement on creepy websites, struggling millennials are now supplementing their incomes at blood plasma facilities across the United States.

WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange has challenged the owners of CBS to a $100,000 bet that the network's story about the whistleblowing website alleged links to the Trump family is false.

Assange lambasted the network on Twitter, calling them a "pathetic excuse for a media organization" after they published a story claiming WikiLeaks offered Donald Trump Jr. early access to leaked documents in September 2016.

Assange called the story "fake news" and bet the majority owners of CBS, the Redstone family, $100,000 that the claim is false.

Broadcasters CBS and CNN ran the story claiming Trump Jr. and other members of the Trump campaign, including Donald Trump himself, were sent an email containing a website URL and decryption key that would allow them view unpublished WikiLeaks material in September 2016.

House considering further sexual harassment reforms

Congressional leaders are struggling to get ahead of the wave of sexual harassment allegations that are engulfing their institution.

With no clear roadmap for how to deal with such topics, House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.), House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and other leaders are responding to the allegations on a case-by-case basis - and on the fly.

The stream of public revelations has put leaders in a pressure cooker. Immediately after allegations surface, they face pressure to forge quick judgments about the credibility of the allegations and the severity of the misconduct, often while relying on reports from anonymous accusers.

The makeshift method has led to swift calls for resignation for some members and a messy, painful, drawn-out process for others.
