Charges are expected to be filed soon on a suspect connected to a Sunday morning bomb hoax at a St. James motel.
As of Monday afternoon, the identity of the suspect had not been released, but the male suspect does have a lengthy criminal history, said St. James Police Chief Ron Jones.
According to Jones, officers responded to the reported bomb threat about 9:30 a.m. Sunday at Finn's Motel in the 700 block of Grover Street.
The call came from an employee who noticed a threatening note on the door of room 115.
"One of the housekeepers found a note on one of the doors that said if they tampered with it... it would blow up," Jones said.
According to a news release from the St. James Police Department, two gas cans strung together with wires were visible through the window. Officers then evacuated the premises and established a perimeter.
The Missouri State Highway Patrol Bomb Squad and the Rolla Police Department Special Response Team were called in to assist.
The bomb squad deployed its bomb service robot, which broke through the window and retrieved the canisters.
The canisters were empty, and no explosive devices were located.
Once law enforcement entered the room, they located the male suspect, who was taken into custody without incident. He was transported to the Phelps County Jail pending a warrant application.
Jones said no other suspects are involved in the case.
The Phelps County Sheriff's Department and St. James Fire Protection District were also on the scene to assist.

German Chancellor Angela Merkel has slammed Israeli settlement expansion in the occupied Palestinian territories as "counterproductive" to the so-called two-state solution.
"Gee, ya THINK?" -- Nodding Yahoo
Because U.S. politicians reflexively bow to whatever Israel wants, any deviation is surprising, such as Bernie Sanders's call to respect Palestinian rights, especially in contrast to Hillary Clinton's Israel pandering.
Tensions between Palestinians and Israelis have been on the rise amid a wave of stabbing attacks.
A billboard in Detroit stating 'America First Not Israel' is causing controversy and accusations of anti-Semitism. The advertisement was paid for by the Deir Yassin Remembered group, which aims to make American's more aware of the plight of Palestinians.
A new billboard in Detroit is causing a lot of controversy.
It reads "America first over Israel."
Is it meant to be anti-Semitic or something else entirely?
Actually, the billboard reads "America first NOT Israel!"
The crew of the USS Liberty is the most decorated crew since World War II. It is among the most decorated crews for a single engagement in the entire history of the United States Navy. Yet, the attack has never received a full investigation, as required by law.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is steering the country in the wrong direction, US Vice President Joe Biden said at a meeting with a Jewish group in an unusually direct and personalized criticism of Israeli policies.
Jewish mothers used to go into a cleaning frenzy a week or so before the Festival of Passover. All traces of leaven (chametz) had to be removed from the home before the onset of the holiday.
Modern folk have determined that dust is not chametz, so there is less madness involved in the cleaning process, but Israel has added a new dimension to the situation; Arabs must be removed as well as the leaven.
Sweden`s housing minister has resigned after footage of him comparing the treatment of Palestinians by Israel to that of the Jews by the Nazis surfaced in local media.
The United States and Germany both criticized Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's declaration that the Golan Heights "will forever remain part of Israeli sovereignty."
U.S. State Department spokesman John Kirby said Monday that the Obama administration does not consider the Golan Heights to be part of Israel, despite Netanyahu's assertion at a Cabinet meeting there Sunday, Haaretz reported .
"The U.S. position on the issue is unchanged," Kirby said at a daily media briefing at the State Department in Washington. "This position was maintained by both Democratic and Republican administrations. Those territories are not part of Israel and the status of those territories should be determined through negotiations."
"I firmly believe that the actions that Israel's government has taken over the past several years — the steady and systematic expansion of settlements, the legalization of outposts, land seizures — they're moving us and more importantly they're moving Israel in the wrong direction," Biden said.
Israel's iron grip on US politics is clearly slipping!
And finally, here is some common sense that totally undermines the attempt to frame Saudi Arabia for 9-11. If Saudi Arabia really wanted to hurt the United States, they don't need to fly airplanes into skyscrapers to do it. All they have to do is ask for their money back, all at once. The resulting damage to the US financial system would make 9-11 look like a minor inconvenience in comparison.
And it would be perfectly legal for Saudi Arabia to ask for their money back.
Which is why we know that the claim that Saudi Arabia was behind 9-11 has no more basis in fact than the claim that Saddam had nuclear weapons or that Assad gassed his own people right in front of the UN chemical weapons inspectors.
Saudi Arabia knows that the US links 9-11 to every nation it wants to invade. First it was Afghanistan, then Iraq (after which George W. Bush admitted on TV Iraq had nothing to do with 9-11).
Saudi Arabia now finds themselves in the croshairs of the US war machine!
To find out if you are being lied to, look for what should be there and isn't, and what isn't there is a motive for Saudi Arabia to attack the United States on 9-11. Saudi Arabia has grown very rich off of the United States with the petrodollar deal. And they have invested much of that money in the United States. Why would Saudi Arabia do anything that would risk having the United States confiscate that money or end the lucrative petrodollar arrangement?
And let us be honest, it wasn't Saudis who were arrested for cheering and clapping while the towers came crashing down, it was Mossad agents. Israeli owned companies like Odigo received advance warning of the attack. Saudi companies did not.
Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice (or thrice) shame on me!

Israeli soldier who shot assailant on the ground charged with manslaughter
JAFFA, Israel (Reuters) - Israel's military filed manslaughter charges on Monday against a soldier who shot a Palestinian assailant in the head as he lay wounded on the ground in a killing that a poll said many Israelis felt was justified.
UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said in an address that Israeli demolitions of Palestinian buildings in the West Bank were continuing at "an alarming rate," reasserting that settlements are illegal.
Note: What part of ILLEGAL (and immoral) does Israel not understand!
Syria's envoy to the United Nations says Israeli regime has been collaborating with the Takfiri Daesh terrorists and al-Qaeda linked militants in the occupied Golan Heights.
Bashar Ja'afari made the remarks during a press briefing after meeting the UN's special envoy for Syria, Staffan de Mistura, at peace talks in the Swiss city of Geneva on Monday.
The Syrian official also denounced as "provocative" an Israeli cabinet meeting recently held in the occupied region.
"It is an irresponsible provocation committed by Benjamin Netanyahu, the prime minister of the Israeli occupation force," Ja'afari said, noting, "This Israeli provocation ... confirms without any doubt the cooperation between Israel and terrorists of Daesh and Nusra Front on the demarcation line between where the Golan is and UN troops are positioned."
Eight years ago, President Obama offered "hope" for change in the world, but politics and pressures won out, with his failure nowhere more obvious than in Gaza, as Palestinian journalist Mohammed Omer explains in this open letter.
Bernie Sanders is not only taking on the Washington establishment in his campaign for the Democratic Party presidential nomination, he is also challenging many of the received truths that make up the ideological foundations upon which its power rests.
Of those received truths one of the most sacrosanct is America's unconditional support for the state of Israel, with the penalty for anyone in US public life who dares question that support, dares question Israel, instant and immediate career death. The fact that Sanders, who also happens to be Jewish, has departed from this ironclad consensus and dared criticize Israel while campaigning for the highest office in the land, this only adds more significance to it.
Tax Day can be aggravating for those of us who file and pay taxes without benefit of lawyers, accountants, family foundations or secret offshore accounts. For opponents of illegal Israeli settlements, apartheid and population removal generally, it is also a day of outrage. Palestinians may legitimately feel terror and despair at what this day signifies for them.
For Tax Day is the day that pro-Zionist Americans get to take off their 2015 contributions to any of the US pro-Israel charities that everyone, including the US Treasury, knows are funneling money to establish and support illegal Jewish settlements and consequently the terror inflicted upon Palestinians by armed and violent settlers. (Of course, it is also the day that each of us contributes our tax dollars to funding the weapons used to enforce Israel's occupation.)
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Tel Aviv will never withdraw from the Golan Heights, a strategic area captured from Syria in 1967, claiming it has been in Israeli hands "since antiquity."
A bus has exploded in Jerusalem, leaving around 15 casualties, Israeli media report, citing emergency medical services.
The massive explosion occurred in Hebron Way, west Jerusalem, with police citing "a militant attack" as the probable cause of the blast.
Syria will do whatever it takes to take back the occupied Golan Heights from the Israeli regime, says a high-ranking official.
It didn't take Syria long to respond to Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu's Cabinet meeting on the Golan Heights Sunday, in which he declared Israel will never surrender the region that was liberated in the 1967 Six Day War.
Shortly after the meeting on Sunday, Syrian Deputy Foreign Minister Faisal Al-Mekdad told Lebanon's al-Mayadeen that his regime will "retake the Golan Heights by any means necessary, including using military force."
"The Arab Syrian Golan is an occupied territory," claimed Al-Mekdad, referencing UN Security Council resolutions calling the area Syrian.
According to the Syrian Deputy Foreign Minister, Netanyahu's Cabinet meeting was a case of "Israel...trying to be provocative, but (we) do not give in to it."
The geopolitical stakes in the Middle East have just gotten higher by an order of magnitude. Take a little-known Newark, New Jersey oil company, the contested Golan Heights between Syria and Israel, add a reported major oil discovery there just as Russia's bombing campaign in Syria goes into high gear, shake it vigorously and we have a potential detonator for World War III.
Speaker of the US House of Representatives Paul Ryan stressed that the US relationship with Israel is more important than ever at a meeting this morning, April 4, at the Knesset with Knesset Speaker Yuli Edelstein.
But you Americans drinking toxic tap water; you're on your own!
Last week, the military prosecutor said a video of the incident shows that the soldier "was not as moved and agitated as he claimed." The prosecutor also confirmed that the autopsy showed that the soldier's shot to the head was what killed the assailant.
Note: No surprises here Israelis have an unlimited supply of murders!
During 50 days of fighting, more than 2,200 Palestinians were killed, over half of them civilians, according to U.N. and Palestinian estimates. Seventy-three people, including six civilians, were killed on the Israeli side.
Note: Why isn't Israel paying for this!
Speaking in the Jewish-only settlement of Maaleh Gamla on Sunday, Netanyahu declared that the 70 percent of the Golan, which Israeli forces occupied during the 1967 Middle East war, will "always remain" under Israeli control.
Note: Israeli used illegal force to occupy this land but let us use legal force to get them out! Forever!
"The stereotype is of monsters, high school dropouts, Arab killers, thieves of Arab land and uprooters of Arab olive trees," the host, Rabbi Meir Goldmintz, told his visitors. "The truth is they are the greatest kids, they love this land and want to make their lives here."
Note: There is nothing left to see I have been there many times. The Israelis have made it a little New York city. Don't go.
A physics professor at the California Institute of Technology filed a lawsuit against the university Thursday, alleging it allowed a potential Israeli spy on campus for two years even after she reported that he violated federal laws and shared classified information with his home country and on the Internet.
Sandra Troian alleges Caltech administrators ignored the school's whistleblower policy and retaliated against her for the past four years because if they had documented her concern, they could have put an $8 billion contract with NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory at risk and put the school in a bad light. Troian said she is frightened for her career.
The Israeli authorities are furious after a UNESCO resolution stated that the Temple Mount and holy sites in Hebron and Bethlehem are an "integral part of Palestine." The organization also criticized Israel, "the occupying power," for planting fake graves in Muslim cemeteries.
"When Tom DeLay was House majority leader, I found out that any legislative provision having to do with the Middle East had to be vetted and approved by AIPAC before the bill could move forward."
So states Mike Lofgren, recently retired after 28 years as Congressional staffer, the last 16 years as senior analyst for House and Senate Budget Committees.
Mike Lofgren a retired Congressional staffer for 28 years wrote in a book about his experience in Congress in which he stated that :" Under Tom Delay,who was majority leader, nothing can be passed concerning the Middle East without being vetted by AIPAC "...And Israel was behind the push for Iraq war..
Like Yuri Slezkine, Plocker admits that the Stalin death machine was operated by Jews such as Genrikh Yagoda and Lazar Kaganovich. In 1934, at the peak of Stalin's purge: "38.5 percent of those holding the most senior posts in the Soviet security apparatuses were of Jewish origin."
As he campaigns in New York, Bernie Sanders is learning what many Jews know—Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu makes it tough for a Jew to be a Zionist.
A friend gave me that line about the prime minister making it difficult for a Jew to be a Zionist. Maybe the Vermont senator knew it already. But Sanders, as a Jew, is being forcibly reminded in his battle against Hillary Clinton in the New York presidential primary, where every word is magnified and every nuance scorned.
The United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) has denied Israel's claim to the Temple Mount and Western Wall.
Israel habitually launches its most unpopular and, sometimes, deadly attacks against Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza to coincide with big news events here in the U.S., so that they don't get too much public attention, according to the study.
The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is one of the world's major sources of instability. Americans are directly connected to this conflict, and increasingly imperiled by its devastation.
It is the goal of If Americans Knew to provide full and accurate information on this critical issue, and on our power – and duty – to bring a resolution.

Clinton's response simply fell short of being true. At one point, during a performance of Israeli rightwing talking points, she said: "If Yasser Arafat had agreed with my husband at Camp David in the late 1990s to the offer then Prime Minister Barak put on the table, we would have had a Palestinian state for 15 years."
To understand just how plainly false is the idea these words suggest, that Arafat and Palestinians turned down an "unprecedented" and "generous" Israeli offer, it is important to revisit coverage and first hand accounts of the failed Summit. Most importantly, that Clinton would propagate such an understanding gives a hint of where her presidency is likely to stand on the issue, if she wins.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared on Sunday that Israel would never relinquish the Golan Heights, in a signal to Russia and the United States that the strategic plateau should be excluded from any deal on Syria's future.
"We stole it fair and square. Besides, we already sold the oil, and you don't want to make us look bad, do you" -- Nodding Yahoo
Republican presidential candidate says the United States should not interfere in the Israeli-PA conflict unless asked.
Kasich policy toward Palestinians Israeli issues is to let Israel do whatever it wants..and US stays on the side line....
But he is unwilling to stop sending big checks to Israel..and of course UN vetoes to defend Israel at the UN...
So what he's saying is let Israel do what it wants and my job as US president is to rubber stamp it and send them big money...
But at least he's in a way more honest than Hillary Clinton who pretends that she has been working on 'side by side two-states' solution, when in fact she is only supporting the Israelis dreams and actions..

The USS LIBERTY is the most decorated ship in the US Navy for a single action
The USS LIBERTY crew was awarded a Medal of Honor, two Navy Crosses, 11 Silver Stars and more than 200 Purple Hearts, a Presidential Unit Citation and the Combat Action Ribbon.
Israel's June 8 1967 attack on the lightly armed USS LIBERTY remains the worst attack on any American Navy ship since World War II, and to this day most Americans do not know about the USS LIBERTY and how that event changed American foreighn policy.
Admiral Moorer, General Raymond Davis, Rear Admiral Staring, Ambassador James Akins and other high ranking US officials have called for every June 8th to be known as "USS LIBERTY Remembrance Day, in order to commemorate the Liberty's heroic crew".
Support the Troops: Honor the USS LIBERTY
I just signed it.
Like apartheid South Africa did to Justify its repulsive approach toward its majority black citizens, Israel is making all sorts of similarly despicable arguments to justify its decades-old evil occupation and systematic persecution of Palestinians.
As some of us remember, the apartheid South African regime had argued that black South Africans ought to be grateful to the White regime for giving them employment and enabling them to have a semblance of decent life.
The White regime's PR machine would shamelessly argue that "Our black citizens have a higher standard of living than other fellow black people anywhere in the continent."
SANDERS: And, let me say something else. As somebody who is 100% pro-Israel, in the long run — and this is not going to be easy, God only knows, but in the long run if we are ever going to bring peace to that region which has seen so much hatred and so much war, we are going to have to treat the Palestinian people with respect and dignity.
The Saudi Arabian government has threatened to sell of hundreds of billions of dollars' worth of American assets should the US Congress pass a bill that could hold the kingdom responsible for any role in the September 11, 2001 attacks, The New York Times reported.
Saudi Arabia knows that the US links 9-11 to every nation it wants to invade. First it was Afghanistan, then Iraq (after which George W. Bush admitted on TV Iraq had nothing to do with 9-11).
Saudi Arabia now finds themselves in the croshairs of the US war machine!

Saudi Arabia has grown very rich off of the United States with the petrodollar deal. And they have invested much of that money in the United States. Why would Saudi Arabia do anything that would risk having the United States confiscate that money or end the lucrative petrodollar arrangement? Especially without some compelling reason? And as the Saudi threat confirms, if Saudi Arabia really did want to harm the United States they would not need to crash airplanes into buildings, all they need do is take their investment funds back and the US economy would implode. The resulting economic devastation would make the loss of the World Trade Towers seem like a minor inconvenience in comparison! And it would be perfectly legal for Saudi Arabia to do so.

394 members of the 435-member House signed the letter sent to Obama on Thursday, urging him to use US veto power to block any United Nations resolutions perceived to be biased against Israel, US Representative Nita Lowey said Friday.
The letter came as the Palestinians are discussing with Arab countries a new draft resolution against Israel's unlawful expansion of settlements in the occupied territories.
We need to crate up those 394 members of the House and ship them to Tel Aviv, and replace them with Representatives who will be focused on what is going on in THIS country!
For a country with a population of just 8 million people, Israel certainly packs a punch when it comes to creating world-class technology companies — several of which have been acquired by Apple, Google, Facebook, and other US tech giants for hundreds of millions.
Note: Then why are we sending over 6 billion a year to Israel for aid!
Israel has detained the coach of a blind Palestinian karate team for "suspected involvement in terrorist activity" after he and five of his students were stopped by Israeli forces at the Erez border crossing earlier this week while trying to re-enter Gaza.
The five blind and vision-impaired students, all under 18 years old, were travelling with four sighted students from the same karate school on their way back from Dubai where they had been competing in an international tournament. One of the students' mothers was also travelling with them.
Their coach, Hassan Al Ra'e, had intended to go to Dubai with the students but after crossing with them from Gaza into Israel and then the West Bank, he was unable to travel onwards, his brother, Nasser, told The National.
From the joint IDF/Israeli Government Department of "You can't make this sh*t up"!!!!!
It's that time of year again. You know -- the time when we file our taxes and pay for the weapons Israel uses to oppress Palestinians.
It would be encouraging to imagine a genocide that is totally free of any Jewish involvement. Sadly, the Rwanda genocide doesn't fit into this mythical category.
For the first time in memory, a major American political figure insisted publicly that the Jewish state and its leaders are "not always right," and that they had killed and injured far too many blameless human beings.
The latest attempt to monopolize the holy city has been so over the top that an Israeli newspaper called the effort "absurd."
Note: Absurd indeed....Israel is absurd!
Public radio reported that two weeks ago, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told Defence Minister Moshe Yaalon not to return the bodies of Palestinians killed in the West Bank to prevent their funerals escalating into protests.
"F*** you, Bibi," read the original post, which Zimmerman later edited with less crude language. "You sanctioned the murder of over 2,000 people this summer."
Note: spot on!
Michael Hoffman reports: Today the celebrated libertarian Lew Rockwell published a column advocating Talmudic ethics as a corrective for GOP corruption. No, this is not a joke. You read those words correctly.
The essay, "The Babylonian Talmud vs. the Colorado GOP," lectures gentile Republicans on the corrective they need to straighten their party out: the ethical integrity of Rabbi Moses Maimonides and the wisdom of the Talmud of Babylon!"
Almost every Jewish owned house or synagogue in the old city is given prominence, an attempt that the Israeli daily Haartez called "absurd" because of its silliness.
Note: Jews own the world and they are chosen by God but to do what is a complete mystery.
As Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders prepare for tonight's debate in Brooklyn, one issue expected to come up is the Israel-Palestine conflict. New York state, which holds its primary on Tuesday, is home to the largest Jewish population in the world outside of Israel
Supreme Court denies attorney's petition to reveal defense exports to the African country, citing risk to national security, foreign relations
Israelis are not feeling the Bern in Jerusalem
I am sick and tired of everyone so concerned with how Israel feels about AMERICAN candidates!
As Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders prepare for tonight's debate in Brooklyn, one issue expected to come up is the Israel-Palestine conflict. New York state, which holds its primary on Tuesday, is home to the largest Jewish population in the world outside of Israel. Sanders made headlines recently when he mistakenly told the New York Daily News editorial board that 10,000 civilians died in Israel's assault on Gaza.

As more details emerge revealing the brutal nature of the ongoing military campaign carried out by Saudi Arabia in Yemen, Muslim Press reports that documents leaked by an unnamed senior military official associated with the Israeli left-wing liberal party Meretz show Israel and Saudi Arabia have cooperated in military efforts. The report also suggests some of the islands tied to the recent Red Sea deal are also being used by both nations to train their joint military.
The 2014 memorandum claims Israel hosted a number of Saudi officers in military training courses carried out at the Port of Haifa base in Israel. The training allegedly took place in 2015...
Responding to a report in Thursday's Haaretz that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had approved the construction in West Bank Jewish settlements of hundreds of new housing units, the Prime Minister's Office issued a statement denying the report, saying that other than the settlement of Ganei Modi'in, "almost all of the approvals are designed to upgrade existing structures," rather than new construction, as reported.
However a review of the relevant plans, as well as aerial photos taken of the sites involved, reveal that the statement from Netanyahu's office is not entirely accurate. For example, in the settlement of Nokdim, south of Bethlehem, some 70 new housing units were approved.

We placed this billboard in New Bedford, MA, to honor USS Liberty veterans and to help them and their families get the respect and help they deserve.
But Israel partisans complained, one threatening to take his business elsewhere, so the billboard company reneged on their contract and took the billboard down two weeks early.
Now we're asking others to SHARE THIS IMAGE to honor these men and their 34 shipmates who never returned. The Liberty is the most decorated crew since WWII. honorlibertyvets.org
PLEASE CONTACT THE BILLBOARD COMPANY, Outfront Media, and ask CEO Jeremy Male to join us in honoring these courageous American veterans
This is the billboard in question. All it says is that Israel attacked the USS Liberty, which is a matter of historical fact. What Israel wants (and has always wanted) is for the world to forget the crimes they commit, so that they may commit more with impunity.
We will have a representative from the USS Liberty Billboard team, Daniel McGowen, on the radio show nest Tuesday.
Meanwhile, when you contact Outfront Media, tell them you are boycotting all products you see on their billboards, and you are informing those clients that you are boycotting their products precisely because they advertise with Outfront!
That should shake them up!

Shabbos Goy Ali Abunimah, the man who planned to reduce the Intifada into an electronic noticeboard, did it again. Abunimah is notorious for being an appeaser of light Zionists and AZZs, is caught on the above tweet thanking Stanford Students for stopping a Nakba event featuring an 85-year-old Nakba Survivor and others who have spent their entire lives in a refugee camp in Lebanon. Stanford SJP are now claiming -- falsely -- that they cancelled the event "because "Alison Weir who refuses to respect Israel's "right to exist as a regime" was in the audience.
if Ali Abunimah like Stanford SJP insists upon Israel's right to exist, he should consider Join the Likud party...
The UN Security Council failed to adopt a similar motion condemning Israeli settlement building in 2011 after the United States deployed its veto.
Note: The title is misleading it should read ILLEGAL SETTLEMENTS!
Human Rights Watch say it has documented several new cases of abuse by Israeli security forces against youngsters in Palestine.
Canada's opposition Conservative Party and other Jewish advocacy groups also called for Lynk to be yanked due to his statements on Israel.
Note: The international community and world have had enough of Israel! More than enough!!
Jews compose almost 20 percent of the New York City electorate. And because they relish the act of voting, they are a force in politics beyond their number. Ostensibly, they should be Sanders' people. He lived in Brooklyn for the first 18 years of his life. He spent a year in Israel. He had family members in Europe who were destroyed in the Holocaust.
"Whether he made a mistake or not, is a trivial question," said an Israeli Jewish man who joined large protests throughout Israel in support of a soldier who calmly, and with precision, killed a wounded Palestinian man in al-Khalil (Hebron). The protesting Jewish man described Palestinians as 'barbaric', 'bestial', who should not be perceived as people.

Haaretz reports that Goldman Sachs has a "clear pattern" of giving to Israeli settler and rightwing groups through their Charitable Gift Fund. And Hillary Clinton hasn't criticized the banking firm that helped propel the 2007 collapse.
Bezalel Smotrich, perhaps the most right-wing member of the current Knesset, caused a storm when he endorsed the idea that Arabs and Jew should be segregated in Israel's maternity rooms.
Smotrich was responding to a report on the Israel Broadcast Authority that several hospitals practice de facto segregation of maternity rooms — placing Jews with Jews and Arabs with Arabs. Such segregation is prohibited by law.
"There are mental gaps, and it's more comfortable for both sides to be with themselves," Smotrich, a member of the religious Zionist Jewish Home party, tweeted on April 5. "It's really not racism."
The fact that Netanyahu is a 'purest' when it comes to the business of Armageddon–and no one should make the mistake of thinking he is anything otherwise–is clearly evident in the various snarlings and growlings attributed to him over the years but which have been mischaracterized by the Gentile world as meaningless political meanderings with no deeper implications attached. Indeed, just as with the infamous 'bomb-gonna-go-boom' cartoonery he utilized at the UN General Assembly in 2012 conveying the threat of Judaically-induced holocaust against Gentiledom if his demands regarding war with Iran and others are not met, likewise have there been numerous other instances where Mr. 666 talks with the mouth of a man but speaks the language of the beast.
"We know that the 15 hijackers who were Saudis, the alleged hijackers, because they were not on those planes – not one of the 19 hijackers, or any Arabs, were on any of the four planes, according to the passenger list, and according to all of the evidence that would be there if they were on the planes, but has not been produced," Dr. Barrett said.
"So these 15 Saudi patsies, who were set up to take the blame for 9/11, were in fact CIA agents. We know this – I had this confirmed directly by a CIA source that these 15 Saudis entered, and repeatedly reentered on these supposedly – they call them employment visas, but there's a special number for employment visas that are only given to CIA assets as a reward for their service to the Central Intelligence Agency, and this visa allows them to come to the US. Typically they're paid for their work for the CIA in Saudi Arabia, and then they are given this special kind of visa which is disguised as an employment visa but it's a of particular type," he stated.
Israeli forces raided a money changer in the Palestinian political capital Ramallah early on Thursday, blowing up a safe and sparking a fire, which led to minor clashes, the army and witnesses said.
And they are training police departments in the U.S.
You know there are 600 checkpoints in the West Bank. You've got millions of Palestinians that you can use as guinea pigs: literally in a laboratory. No wonder Israel is leading in airport security, and runs airports all over the United States.

A group of Palestinians affected by Israel's activities have filed a $34.5 billion lawsuit against US and Israeli entities supporting West Bank settlements. The lawsuit was filed in the Federal District Court of Columbia in the United States.
Ayman Nejm, media spokesman for Martin McMahon and Associates, the law firm that filed the law suit, told Safa news agency on Monday that the case is the first of its kind where Palestinian and Palestinian-American plaintiffs have filed a lawsuit against wealthy US citizens and tax-exempt entities that have provided massive financial assistance to settlements across the Occupied Palestinian Territories.
According to the statement, the lawsuit has been filed against construction companies, security firms, real estate agencies and private banks involved in supporting the growth of Israeli settlements.
Once upon a time, hundreds of years ago, there was an extraordinarily evil kingdom. A land ruled by a wicked king who filled his court with practitioners of ancient Babylonian black arts, and occult oligarchs. A land inhabited by an aggressive demented race of thieves, murderers, and highwaymen, who would prey on travellers, steal from them, murder them, and then assume their identity. The citizens of neighbouring lands lived in constant fear and trepidation of this menacing realm, its criminal population, and its warlike tendencies.
Anyone could be forgiven for thinking that the above opening is the prologue to a mythical fable from times past, but such a sinister country, complete with its equally terrorizing inhabitants did exist. The country was called Khazaria, and its populace Khazars. A land to the north of Georgia and the south of Bulgaria, between the Black and Caspian seas.
Israel has launched dozens of strikes in Syria, the regime's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu admits for the first time.
Israeli security forces are abusing Palestinian children detained in the West Bank. The number of Palestinian children arrested by Israeli forces has more than doubled since October 2015.
Interviews with children who have been detained, video footage, and reports from lawyers reveal that Israeli security forces are using unnecessary force in arresting and detaining children, in some cases beating them, and holding them in unsafe and abusive conditions.
In interview with New York Jewish Week, Democratic front-runner distances herself from Obama administration, lambastes Palestinian inaction, says her commitment to Israel is 'personal'
Alison is an extremely committed and popular antiracist writer, speaker, and activist, and people even follow her work in refugee camps in Lebanon. While some groups oppose her and If Americans Knew, most people working for justice in Palestine feel she is one of the top writers and speakers on this issue.
In any case this should not be an issue for the Nakba Tour; Alison is not one of the national organizers of the tour, and she was not intended to be one of the speakers or to have any role in the presentation at Stanford. She was simply there as a favor to us, as described above.
A popular campaign slogan this election season is "Hillary for Prison."

The only power station in Gaza Strip has been forced to shut down due to fuel shortage as the Palestinian territory is suffering from nine years of siege by the Israeli regime, officials say.
He was terrified that the soldier was going to shoot him for filming, but he kept his camera calmly trained on the scene so that "it was all well-documented." Instead, the soldier pointed his gun at al-Sharif and shot him dead.

Poll: 59% of Israeli youth are right-wing
Survey finds 82% of high-schoolers say there's no chance of a deal with Palestinians, half oppose having Arab MKs.
A new poll has found that youth in Israel are increasingly right-wing in their political opinions, and are overwhelmingly Zionist and loyal to their country.
Israel's attack on the USS Liberty killed thirty-four, physically wounded 171 out of a crew of 294 who have been waging an increasingly raging battle for the LIBERTY Veteran's right to inform their fellow Americans that the American Government did not just fail to support the troops aboard the LIBERTY:
"The American government colluded with Israel in the treasonous cover-up of the attack on the USS LIBERTY and the survivors were ordered to remain silent under threat of court martial, imprisonment or worse. The U.S. government has never challenged the obviously phony Israeli excuse of 'mistaken identity' nor have they attempted to expose the dishonorable cover up that continues to date. Truth and America's honor were ignominiously sacrificed to provide cover for Israel's transparent lies and despicable act of perfidy." – Petty Officer Phillip F. Tourney and a former President of the USS LIBERTY Veterans Association
BILLBOARD COMPANY REFUSES TO HONOR NAVY VETS – We placed this billboard in New Bedford, MA, to honor USS Liberty veterans and to help them and their families get the respect and help they deserve.
So obsessed is U.S. media with this year's headlong dash for the White House, that Israel's increase in settlement construction has gone by us like a snake sliding into a backyard recycling bin.
The Paris-based news agency, AFP reported from Jerusalem this week that "the number of West Bank settlements Israel plans to build... has more than tripled ...in the first quarter of 2016 compared to the same period last year."
Israeli-based Peace Now, a settlement watchdog, said in a statement "that between January and March, projects for 674 housing units passed at least one of the steps in the planning approval process, up from 194 in the first quarter of 2015."
The absence of media attention to such a development is no surprise. The mainline media narrative on Israel/Palestine is already conditioned to treat Israel as a 51st U.S. state, surrounded by "terrorists."
"I am proud to sign this important bill into law and join the Florida Legislature in sending this message: The State of Florida will not waver in our support of Israel, one of our greatest allies and friends. The Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement is fueled by anti-Semitism, and has no place in Florida or any part of the world that values freedom and democracy."
Journalist and author Max Blumenthal talks about the growing BDS movement and the efforts to muzzle it.
Israeli soldiers invaded, Monday morning, a Palestinian agricultural land in the al-Khader town, south of Bethlehem, and dumped rubble and sand on the plants. The land is close to the illegal 'Daniel' colony.
Ahmad Salah, coordinator of the Popular Committee against the Wall and Settlements in al-Khader, said the soldiers placed the rubble and sand on the land that belongs to Ibrahim Hasan Khreisha.
Salah added that the total size of this farmland is eight Dunams (1.976 Acres), and that the soldiers did this act without any reason or prior notice.
Thousands in East Jerusalem caught in planning trap, with critics accusing officials of using heritage and tourism to pave way for settler land grab
European leaders will meet in Brussels on Monday to discuss the escalation of demolitions by Israeli authorities of Palestinian homes and humanitarian aid in the West Bank. Despite six months of diplomatic talks between the EU and Israel, the rate of demolitions in the West Bank has spiraled, violating international humanitarian law.
Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas keeps coming up with moves that could advance the peace process. In his efforts to get the international community behind a major initiative, Abbas is expected to submit to the UN Security Council this month a draft resolution reflecting international consensus that could help to jump-start the stalled peace process.
The resolution calls for the immediate resumption of negotiations between Israel and the Palestinians, with a one-year deadline to complete them and reach a final-status arrangement based on the principle of two states. It would define the settlements in the West Bank and East Jerusalem as illegal and an obstacle to peace and condemn continued Israeli construction in the occupied territories, as well as any action whose purpose is to change the demographic balance in the area.
Here is where Netanyahu's grand-standing before Congress during the P5+1 talks may come back to bite him.
"The Security Council is a very important subject because it has now become urgent due to settlement activities and because Israel has not stopped these activities,"
The United States has repeatedly vetoed resolutions opposed by Israel at the UN Security Council, but the Palestinians are hoping for a change of heart.
When we consider the "60 Minutes" report about the 28 top-secret pages about 9/11 that aired on CBS last night, we need to consider a few things: the source of the report, and its content.
First, let's consider the content: The CBS News program focused on the 28 pages that seem to show Saudi support for two of the alleged 9/11 hijackers. These pages have been classified for 13 years, so why is it that only now they are an issue for "60 Minutes" - after 13 years?
Remember when Bernie Sanders lost six contests—five in just one day—and nearly every pundit questioned whether or not he should drop out?That week, Bernie's campaign pressed forward, holding town hall and rallies with voters in Arizona, Idaho and Utah, while Clinton picked up checks from high-dollar donors in Virginia and Tennessee, states that had already voted.
As a former interrogator in Iraq working as a military contractor for the private security firm CACI, Eric Fair was stationed at the Abu Ghraib prison and in Fallujah in 2004. While in Fallujah, he witnessed a torture device known as the Palestinian chair. He writes in his new book, "Consequence: A Memoir," that the chair was a way to immobilize prisoners in order to break them down both physically and mentally. He also wrote that the Israeli military taught them how to use the Palestinian chair during a joint training exercise.
In the past few months, especially since the beginning of the current wave of Palestinian resistance against Israel's enduring brutal military occupation, about six months ago, the Israeli army and other security forces adopted a decidedly murderous policy against Palestinians, especially children.
A shoot-to-kill policy was adopted by the Israeli political and military leadership, apparently for the purpose of terrorizing and "deterring" the Palestinian populace. Consequently, dozens of young Palestinians were needlessly murdered on the streets of the West Bank on the pretext that some of the victims may have put the life of Israeli soldiers at risk.
In some incidents, soldiers fired additional bullets at the heads of the already completely "neutralized" Victims.
In the Israeli army lexicon, this is done for the purpose of verifying their death.
Palestinians on Saturday marked the 68th anniversary of the massacre of more than 100 Palestinians civilians carried out by Zionist paramilitary groups in the village of Deir Yassin in 1948 prior to the establishment of Israel.
Deir Yassin has long been a symbol of Israeli violence for Palestinians because of the particularly gruesome nature of the slaughter, which targeted men, women, children, and the elderly in the small village west of Jerusalem.
The number of victims is generally believed to be around 107, though figures given at the time reached up to 254, out of a village that numbered around 600 at the time.
The Deir Yassin massacre was led by the Irgun group, whose head was future Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin, with support from other paramilitary groups Haganah and Lehi whose primary aim was to push Palestinians out through force.
Hillary Clinton said that as president, she would handle disagreements with Israel "in a respectfully and preferably private way" — a rare dig at how President Barack Obama handled the relationship.
In other words Hillary will adopt a 'hushed up' and secrecy policy when it come to Israel...so Israel will not be embarrassed.
Many of you will recognise one of the faces in this photograph, Mark Regev. He is Israel's new Ambassador to London and of course was the Israeli government spokesman who justified the massacre of more than 600 women and children in Gaza, and the murder of peace activists aboard the Mavi Marmara.
The other face of evil is Simon McDonald, head of the UK Diplomatic Service. You probably now think I am indulging in hyperbole. But no, I am not.
Simon McDonald was the Foreign Secretary Jack Straw's Private Secretary at the time of the implementation of the British government's extraordinary rendition and intelligence from torture programmes. When I became the only member of the UK's senior civil service to make formal objection to these programmes, it was Simon McDonald who managed Jack Straw's response in continuing to use torture.
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has said he will continue to insist that the blockade of Gaza be lifted, regardless of what this stance means for Turkey-Israel relations.
There will be a Palestinian (nudge nudge wink wink) terror attack in Turkey now.
Israel has launched dozens of strikes in Syria, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has announced. It marks the first time that the leader has acknowledged such attacks against arms transfers to Lebanon's Hezbollah.
But judges sitting at the Paris Correctional Court rejected his defence, saying he was 'guilty of questioning a crime against humanity'.
Guilty of questioning...
Let's see... what have we got today? Ah... there we go, more outrageous bullshit about non-existent gas chambers. They never quit with this nonsense and people go right on believing this Hollywood stage set, by which I mean it is all like one of those fake towns ...and behind the building fronts are nothing but 2X4's holding up the illusion of something real behind it and there is nothing. There is only the desert of the larger environment or one of those movie lots or buildings.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has rejected a US proposal to increase its annual financial and military support to Israel by 20 per cent as "compensation" for the deal signed with Iran. Sources close to the US-Israeli negotiating circles said with the additional 20 percent, the US support to Israel will reach $3.6 billion a year.

A lawmaker and his wife have created a stir after calling for the separation of Jewish and Arab mothers in Israeli hospitals. "I'd be happy when only Jewish hands will touch my newborn baby," the MK's wife has stated.
The United States and Israel on Saturday warned their citizens of a high-level, imminent threat of attacks in Turkey, with Israel urging its citizens to immediately leave the country.
Israel has launched dozens of strikes in Syria, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Monday, acknowledging for the first time such attacks against suspected arms transfers to Lebanon's Hezbollah guerrillas.
Note: WHAT! Attacking a foreign country...against arms control act etc!!
"Prison is not a place for a small child," said Abeer Baker, one of the girl's lawyers. "If it was a Jewish girl, she wouldn't stay in prison for even one hour because it is forbidden according to the Israeli law."
Some 49 percent of Israeli Jews told Israel's Channel 2 that they would not live in the same building as Arab families, compared to 42 percent who said they would be willing. Nine percent said they were not sure.
Sanders Gets it Mostly Right on Gaza, but Cheerleaders for Israeli Brutality Attack Him Anyway
The Jewish press reports that Gill Kaffash, a dedicated pro Palestinian activist & former secretary of the Camden branch of the Palestine Solidarity Campaign (PSC), is the latest victim of the ongoing Labour purge. Gill was rejected by the Holborn and St Pancras Labour branch. She appealed but the party rejected her appeal last week. According to the Jewish press, Gill was accused of "promoting Holocaust revisionism."
This is an astounding interview. Dr. Lorraine Day, M.D. is an internationally acclaimed orthopedic trauma surgeon and best-selling author, was for fifteen years on the faculty of the University of California, San Francisco, School of Medicine as Associate Professor and Vice Chairman of the Department of Orthopedics. She was also Chief of Orthopedic Surgery at San Francisco General Hospital and is recognized world-wide as an AIDS expert."
Mrs. Day is the wife of retired U.S. Congressman William E. Dannemeyer, a conservative Republican attorney from Southern California who represented California's 39th congressional district and served 14 years, from 1979 to 1993.
A Mossad surveillance team made quite a public spectacle of themselves on 9-11.
The New York Times reported Thursday that a group of five men had set up video cameras aimed at the Twin Towers prior to the attack on Tuesday, and were seen congratulating one another afterwards. (1)
Police received several calls from angry New Jersey residents claiming "middle-eastern" men with a white van were videotaping the disaster with shouts of joy and mockery. (2)
"They were like happy, you know … They didn't look shocked to me" said a witness. (3)
[T]hey were seen by New Jersey residents on Sept. 11 making fun of the World Trade Center ruins and going to extreme lengths to photograph themselves in front of the wreckage. (4)
Witnesses saw them jumping for joy in Liberty State Park after the initial impact (5). Later on, other witnesses saw them celebrating on a roof in Weehawken, and still more witnesses later saw them celebrating with high fives in a Jersey City parking lot. (6)
Last night CBS "60 Minutes" (the same show whose executive producer admitted editing their story on Gennifer Flowers to discredit her and help Bill Clinton win the White House) tried to shift the blame for 9-11 onto Saudi Arabia (after helping put the blame first on Afghanistan and later Iraq).
But Saudi Arabia did not have their agents arrested at the scene after being seen cheering and dancing as the towers came down; Israel did. And Saudi Arabia didn't have a motive to commit 9-11; Israel (and the US) did.
CBS did not mention the arrested Mossad agents, or the numerous scientists and engineers who insist the World Trade Center, especially building 7, were brought down in controlled demolitions.
You need to make this article go viral all over the net, or we are going to see another war started against an innocent nation.

Since then, any and all mention of the Israeli spy ring and phone tapping scandal has resulted in a barrage of shrill screams of "hate" and "anti-Semite", two well worn and frankly over used devices to try to silence discussion on any topic unfavorable to the nation which owns the spy ring in question.
The story of the uncovering of the largest spy ring ever discovered inside the United States should be the story of the century, if indeed the US media is looking out for the best interests of the American people. That this spy ring helped drug smugglers evade investigators should be a major scandal, if indeed the US media is looking out for the best interests of the American people. That the spy ring includes companies able to track and tap into any phone in America, including the White House, should be a cause celebre', if indeed the US media is looking out for the best interests of the American people.
Webmaster addition: Somene wants to discredit the papers.
There is a new game in town, the Panama Papers, a massive dump of corporate records from Mossach Fenseka, a law firm in Panama with offices around the world, that sets up phony corporations for purposes of bribery and money laundering.
Their primary clients are the CIA and Mossad, the bulk of the records received by an obscure German newspaper, a huge dump, involve political leaders around the world.
However, the "dump" fell into the hands of those it was meant to expose and will now be used to blackmail some, to protect others and the documents, too many for anyone to examine or vet, have, for the last year, been seeded with fabrications and fictions just like WikiLeaks.
John Friend of The Realist Report recently interviewed Dr. Lorraine Day in an absolutely astounding, no-holds-barred must-hear interview. This gutsy woman is really something else.
In this video, MIT professor, anarchist, political philosopher and renowned linguist Noam Chomsky discusses the impacts of German arms and weapons exports into Saudi Arabia and Israel. He also talks about the refugee and Syrian crisis that is engulfing neighbouring states as well as the European continent.
t is curious that the more Israel denies apartheid, and the more other states, such as Canada, "condemn" the BDS movement, the more awareness of the true situation of the Palestinians increases in the general population.
Fear of BDS
The Israelis know full well the impact that the label "apartheid" and its associated boycott, divestment, and sanctions (BDS) movement had on South Africa. Their denials only reinforce the significance of these events and labels. One prime example derives from former Israeli ambassador to the U.S., Michael Oren in his book Ally (Random House, 2015), an account of his life leading up to but mostly concerning his role as ambassador.
When someone like the South African Anglican Archbishop Desmond Tutu says that Israel is an apartheid regime, you have to understand that this guy knows whereof he speaks!
Many, many years ago in Los Angeles, I heard this man preach at St. John;s Episcopal Church in Los Angeles; I have rarely heard a more articulate, faith-centered, defense of human dignity and human rights this lifetime.
Scores of pro-Palestinian activists in the UK have demonstrated outside the headquarters of an arms manufacturing company, accusing it of benefiting from Israel's deadly crackdown against Palestinians.
The protesters gathered in front of the UK headquarters of aerospace manufacturer Thales, in Crawley, on Friday and expressed their anger against the company's partnership with Israel's Elbit Systems to develop a surveillance drone, nicknamed Watchkeeper, used by the regime against Palestinians.
"I find the main stream media to be hopeless, they are so hopeless. You seem them doing the same thing over and over again. I don't think it's [what are doing is] as much challenging them, it's more like replacing them. When the last person turns off CNN and hangs up on the Washington Post and New York Times, and begins looking at accurate and quality alternative media, that's when a major shift has been accomplished." -Grant F.

Right wing Israeli politicians knew about Omar Barghouti's activities all along. Israel allowed Omar Barghouti to travel around the globe and condemn the occupation. Israel allowed it because from a very early stage BDS was an Israeli controlled opposition maneuver.
For Israel, BDS presented the ideal front on which to fight. Instead of battling for a Palestinian Right Of Return, that is ethically solid and backed by UN resolutions, the solidarity movement was reduced to an internal Jewish debate over the "Right to BDS." Instead of dealing with the acute Palestinian refugee crisis in Syria and Lebanon, our devoted solidarity campaigners gathered around their local food store to protest against gefilte fish made in Israel.
BDS, like the oil price war, and like the Panama Papers, has blown up in their faces.
Jews frequently delight in associating themselves with Jewish brilliance: with the likes of Albert Einstein or Steven Spielberg. Naturally, Jews are much less enthusiastic about any association with people such as uber-criminal Bernie Madoff or serial paedophile Jeffrey Epstein. Jewish tribalhood is an elastic concept. Many Jews cling to biological determinism in the inheritance of Jewish talents but forcefully reject any biological cause in reference to any unsavory traits. Jewish folklore is wildly inconsistent in its biologist attitude toward the so called 'Jewish traits.'
Lord Janner was president from 1978 to 1984 of the Board of Deputies of British Jews (BOD), a body that claims to represent the British Jewish community. Lord Janner was a tireless and prominent advocate, both in Parliament and out, of the campaign to win reparations for victims of the Holocaust and to bring those responsible for Nazi atrocities to justice. He lobbied the Thatcher government for the War Crimes Act 1991 (prosecuting Nazis). Janner was the founder of The Holocaust Educational Trust. He was also a vice-president of the World Jewish Congress until 2009 and of the Jewish Leadership Council until 2015.
A non-Jewish forty-year Labour member claimed that when he defended Mrs. Ellman, a Momentum activist threatened him and told him he was "a Jewish Chronicle-reading Zionist fascist." The JC fails to explain what is anti-Semitic in the Momentum activist's 'threat.' The Jewish Chronicle is an ultra Zionist outlet that supports Hitlerian Israeli policies such as ethnic cleansing and Zionist expansionism.
To fight the recent suspension of the notorious AZZ Tony Greenstein from the Labour Party, three of his friends launched a Jews only campaign to support his cause. A gentile Labour member from Walse who attempted to lend her support for the campaign was told by Tony Greenstein that "only Jewish members of the LP can sign the letter." It would be interesting to learn from Greenstein what qualifies a Labour party member'as a Jew.' Is it the blood, the genes, the DNA or does it come down to the love of gefilte fish yet again?
If you wonder what the role of the Left is in the 21st century, if by mistake you bought into the idea that the Left has something to do with the oppressed, the British poet Michael Rosen will enlighten you. The Left has one true mission: it exists to save the Jews from the next pogrom.

Col. Larry Wilkerson discusses the danger inherent in the U.S. aligning its interests entirely with Israel's, and how American support is creating an untenable future for the state.
Israel's offshore natural gas fields, potentially the largest in the Mediterranean Sea, could boost energy trade in the region and even help Europe diversify away from Russian fuel, according to U.S. Energy Secretary Ernest Moniz. The U.S. hopes Israel can resolve domestic challenges blocking development of its Mediterranean gas field "in a timely way," considering that they contain substantial quantities for exports, Moniz said in an interview with Bloomberg Television. Israel's gas exports "can be used in a strategic way" in the region and beyond. "First and foremost there is a very clear economic and energy security benefit to producing the field," Moniz said. Gas from Israel can be shipped to Turkey, where it can be pumped through pipeline networks from the Caspian Sea to Europe, he said. Israeli gas can help in "diversifying supplies away from Russia for Europe." Israel can also export gas to its Arab neighbors, such as Egypt and Jordan, he said.
Speaking to Orthodox Jews in Brooklyn ahead of NY caucus, Cruz promises that Obama's 'cold shoulder' to Israel will end in January.
Hey Ted! If you love Israel so much why aren't you trying to bluff your way into the Presidency over in Tel Aviv?
At least 1,000 illegal settlers, accompanied by Israeli military soldiers, have stormed Joseph's Tomb on the outskirts of Nablus, desecrating the site venerated by Jews, Christians and Muslims.
Palestinian security sources and local residents said the settlers arrived at the site on board a number of buses early on Thursday, and broke into the tomb amid protection by Israeli troopers, Arabic-language Palestine al-Yawm news agency reported.
Israeli forces also deployed several military vehicles on the streets leading to Joseph's Tomb to prevent any potential confrontation between Palestinians and the settlers, who were purportedly uttering prayers from the Talmud.
The good news is that nobody actually knows whose tomb that really was. After Constantine declared Christianity the official religion of the Roman Empire, his mother, Empress Helena (now Saint Helen), toured the holy lands "identifying" sacred sites and building churches on them. Helena even claimed to have found the true cross and resurrected a dead corpse with it (to prove it was the real thing). But Helena's choices for holy sites were driven less by archaeology and more by wishing to erase the existing edifices of competing religions, and scholars admit that in many if not most cases, there is no actual proof that these holy sites are what Helena declared them to be.

interventionist will provide your loved one with an objective and healthy
solution to the problem, while at the same time, working to maintain the dignity

intervention, alcohol intervention, mental health intervention, eating disorder
intervention, and gambling intervention in as a strategically planned
process conducted in a compassionate and solution focused manner. The

recovery process. With the supportive direction of your intervention specialist
and the love and emotional strength of those who will participate in the
intervention in , your loved one will be carefully guided towards accepting the
gift of help.
The approach of The Treatment Solution is non-judgmental, while at the same time, we are careful to recognize the cunning and insidious nature of the disorders that we work with on a daily basis in the State of . We will walk you and your family through the entire intervention process in a thorough and clear manner, so that on the day of the intervention our collective message will be organized and carefully thought out. We recognize that your decision to move forward with an intervention in is not easy, however, we are confident that you and your family will come to the collective realization that the consequences of not taking this step far outweigh the effort required to initiate the intervention process.

A Drug Intervention in is a process utilized when all other options have been exhausted in an attempt to help an individual in overcome a serious problem such as drug or alcohol abuse/addiction. An intervention is a deliberate process by which change is introduced into peoples' thoughts, feelings and behaviors. It usually involves an intervention specialist in as well several people preparing themselves, approaching a person involved in some self-destructive behavior, and talking to the person in a clear and respectful way about the behavior in question. The immediate objective is for the person to listen and accept help. A Drug Intervention program in can help you in developing a plan of action suited to your individual circumstances. They can help your friend, coworker or loved one get their lives back in order and overcome drug or alcohol addiction. An effective drug Intervention will see that the addict receives the necessary treatment he/she needs and beyond. It was once thought that alcohol and drug abusers had to "hit bottom" before help could be offered and accepted. If you are wait until the abusers hits "rock bottom" before you intervene, then you may be forced to watch them destroy their lives and deeply affect the lives of their families as well as others around them. It was also thought that an abuser could only get better if they were self-motivated to change. That is not always the case. Intervention can assist in the process of motivating the person to accept treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction and enroll into a drug rehab program.

FAYETTEVILLE - Bobby Portis has been on a tear since a sluggish opening game at the EA Sports Maui Invitational last week.
The Arkansas freshman showed it again Tuesday with 16 points on 7-of-9 shooting and 5 rebounds in his 16-minute stint in the Razorbacks' 111-65 victory over Southeastern Louisiana.
Portis had a hot stretch early in the second half with a pair of tip-ins, a jumper, a put back of a Fred Gulley miss and two free throws in the first five minutes.
Portis, a 6-10 forward, is averaging 15.3 points and 6.3 rebounds in the 3 games since he put up 5 points and 1 rebound in the Razorbacks' 85-77 loss to California.
"When he played against California and he had one rebound, he took that personal," Coach Mike Anderson said. "In his mind,that's not going to happen again. He wants to be a great player."
Southeastern Louisiana Coach Jim Yarbrough complimented Portis on his ability to step away from the basket and shoot.
"I'd like to have him," Yarbrough said. "If he gets bored here, he can transfer to Southeastern."
Hogs hit 100
Arkansas topped the 100-point mark in style, with Jacorey Williams throwing down a left-handed slam on the break on a pass from Michael Qualls. The dunk put Arkansas ahead 101-47.
The Razorbacks had made the 100-point mark only one other time under Coach Mike Anderson, in their 112-63 victory over Longwood last Nov. 18.
Roster sweep
All 14 Razorbacks who played got in the scoring column against the Lions, and the last four on the board came in rapid fashion.
Anthlon Bell stuck a 14-foot jumper on an inbounds pass from Michael Qualls at the 6:51 mark.
A few possessions later, Dee Wagner drove for a layup, followed shortly by Mardracus Wade's three pointer and walk-on Manny Watkins' jumper.
"We're going to need some of those guys at some point in time," Coach Mike Anderson said. "The better the competition in practice day in and day out, then it makes our team that much more effective, I think."
It's for free
The Razorbacks cleaned up at the free-throw line, making 26 of 34 for 76.5 percent, with senior Coty Clarke leading the way with 10-of-11 shooting.
Arkansas is shooting 75.4 percent from the free-throw line.
Southeastern stayed with Arkansas until the Hogs took command with a 15-0 tear that ended with a 26-7 advantage at the 12:17 mark.
Fred Gulley, Michael Qualls and Coty Clarke hit three-pointers during the spree, while Clarke and Moses Kingsley combined to go 4 of 4 at the free-throw line. The Lions committed four turnovers during the critical stretch, including Antonnio Benton's charge, which was drawn by Kikko Haydar.
The Hogs launched an even bigger second-half run, a 19-0 spree that ended with an 81-35 margin.
Arkansas big men Alandise Harris, Bobby Portis and Coty Clarke were generous passers while helping the Hogs open the game with a three-point barrage.
Harris assisted on the first two goals, three pointers from Kikko Haydar, and Clarke later passes to Michael Qualls for his first three-pointer. Harris, who had a team-high four assists, set up Ky Madden's three pointer at the 1:45 mark of the first half.
The three big men combined for eight of Arkansas' 21 assists.

My exe runs completely fine on the computer I programmed it on. It debugs fine, releases fine, and I can move the exe file from the 'release' folder into a new file, locate the needed .dll files from C:\pathtoqt\ming47_32\bin and it still runs fine. However, when I attempt to run this program on another computer with the .dll files included, I cannot do it and I get the "Application has requested the runtime to terminate it in an unusual way".
I have tested this on 2 windows 7 computers and 1 windows xp. I used dependency walker and downloaded a bunch of .dll's and it still didn't work. I managed to get it to all the dll's to be either "found" status or "red" status.
