JERUSALEM,
Israel – The United Nations agency
dedicated to serving Palestinian
refugees announced it suspended six of
its staffers following a report from a
pro-Israel group showing they had
written messages on social media in
support of the Hamas terror organization
in Gaza.
The UN Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA)
provides aid and other resources to 1.5
million Palestinian refugees. Israel
advocacy groups have long accused the
agency of inciting Palestinian children
to violence in UNRWA textbooks and
curricula.
The report, released by UN Watch,
included images of social media posts
praising Hamas’ rocket attacks on
Israeli civilians, advocating for the
slaughter of Israelis and promoting
anti-Semitism. The screenshots were
taken from the social media pages of
people who publicly identified
themselves as UNRWA employees.
'Good Shepherd' Ring
Discovered Off Coast of Caesarea Is
One of the Earliest Images Used in
Christianity

A fascinating discovery off the coast
of Israel is yielding spectacular
treasures.
Two shipwrecks were found on the same
site, leaving Roman and Jewish artifacts
scattered across the ocean floor. These
ancient discoveries are giving us a
glimpse into the world of the early
church.
The Marine Archaeology Unit of the
Israel Antiquities Authority discovered
ancient treasures from the two
shipwrecks off the coast of Caesarea in
Israel. According to Jacob Sharvit and
Dror Planer of the Israel Antiquities
Authority’s Marine Archaeology Unit,
“The ships were probably anchored nearby
and were wrecked by a storm.”
The artifacts included a special gold
ring engraved with the figure of the
Good Shepherd. The theme of the Good
Shepherd is throughout the Bible, in the
Old Testament, Isaiah 40:11 says “He
tends his flock like a shepherd: He
gathers the lambs in his arms and
carries them close to his heart.”
The image is also one of the earliest
images used in Christianity for
symbolizing Jesus as humanity’s
compassionate shepherd. Jesus even
called himself a shepherd, “I am the
good shepherd. The good shepherd lays
down his life for the sheep.” John
10:11.
Trump announces
that Israel and Sudan have agreed to
normalize relations

Washington
(CNN)President Donald Trump announced
Friday that Sudan and Israel have agreed
to normalize relations -- a foreign
policy achievement for the incumbent
president less than two weeks before the
US presidential election.
Trump made the announcement from the
Oval Office while joined on the phone by
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin
Netanyahu, Sudanese Chairman of the
Sovereignty Council Abdel Fattah
al-Burhan and Sudanese Prime Minister
Abdalla Hamdok.
According to a joint statement from the
three countries, the leaders of Sudan
and Israel "agreed to the normalization
of relations between Sudan and Israel
and to end the state of belligerence
between their nations" and "agreed to
begin economic and trade relations, with
an initial focus on agriculture."
Israel and Palestine have been in
conflict for decades over various
political issues such as borders,
refugees and the control of Jerusalem.
Under Mr Trump's new plan, Jerusalem
will remain as Israel's capital but it
has been rejected by Palestinian
leaders.
The conflict between Israel and
Palestine has been going on for more
than 100 years, so there's a lot to try
and get your head around, but we've
broken it down for you here.
Israel Will Be Forced To
Side With America Against Russia Should
President Trump Launch Missiles On Syria

“It has definitely been a goal of
Israeli policy to avoid confronting
Russia on a number of issues that have
been a cause of friction between Russia
and the West,” said Dan Shapiro, the
U.S. ambassador to Israel in 2011-2017
and currently a fellow at the Institute
for National Security Studies in Tel
Aviv. “But if we see an open
conflict emerge between Russia and the
U.S., I don’t think Israel could afford
that luxury,” he added. “Israel’s
primary alliance is of course with the
United States. Israel will stand beside
the United States, but this would be a
particularly painful vise to be caught
in.”

there is more hopeful news regarding the

In Saudi Arabia, signs of an effort to
break the Israel taboo
By Michael Wilner, Herb Keinon 08/30/2016 21:30
Saudi state-run media appears to be
softening its reporting on Israel, running
unprecedented columns floating the
prospect of direct relations, quoting
Israeli officials and filling its news
holes with fewer negative stories on
Israel’s relationship with the
Palestinians.
The public shift – from outlets such as
al-Arabiya and Riyadh newspaper, among
other local or state-owned outlets –
reflects secret, under-the-table contact
between the Arab kingdom and the Jewish
state that has been a work in progress for
years. Click

Tensions Rise as Israel
and Gaza
Swap Strikes
New
York Times

ISABEL KERSHNER
Published:
April 3, 2013
JERUSALEM —
Israeli-Palestinian tensions rose
sharply on Wednesday, with a resumption
of clashes at the Gaza
border as Palestinian prisoners in
Israeli jails declared a three-day
hunger strike to protest a fellow
inmate’s death, saying Israel
was responsible.
In
response to rockets fired from Gaza into
southern Israel,
apparently in support of the Palestinian
prisoners, the Israeli military said it
carried out an airstrike in Gaza
late Tuesday night, its first since a
cease-fire that ended eight days of
fierce cross-border fighting in
November. Warplanes struck two open
areas in northern Gaza,
causing no damage or casualties, the
military said.
Obama urged: act tough on Israel
or risk collapse of two-state solution
By
Chris McGreal, US correspondent
The
Guardian,
19
March 2013
(In the
fifth year of his presidency...)
Barack Obama begins his first official
visit to Israel
on Wednesday amid growing warnings
among some of its leading supporters
in the US
that the president needs to act more
forcefully to save Israel
from itself.
The White House
has played down expectations that
Obama will put any real effort into
pressing Israel
toward the creation of a Palestinian
state after he was burned by an
attempt early in his first term to
pressure the prime minister, Binyamin
Netanyahu, into halting Israeli
settlement construction in the
occupied territories.
WASHINGTON
- The Obama administration on Monday
cut off funding for the U.N. cultural
agency, after its member countries
defied an American warning and
approved a Palestinian bid for full
membership in the body.
The
lopsided vote to admit Palestine as
a member of UNESCO, which only the
United States and 13 other countries
opposed, triggered a long-standing
congressional ban on U.S. funding to
U.N. bodies that recognize Palestine
as a state before an
Israeli-Palestinian peace deal is
reached. The State Department said a
$60 million payment to UNESCO
scheduled for November would not be
made as a result, and U.S.
officials warned of a "cascade"
effect at other U.N. bodies that
might follow UNESCO's lead. Please

Land without peace: Why Abbas went to
the U.N.
October
03,
2011
WASHINGTON — While diplomatically
inconvenient for the Western powers,
Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud
Abbas' attempt to get the U.N. to
unilaterally declare a Palestinian state
has elicited widespread sympathy. After
all, what choice did he have? According
to the accepted narrative, Middle East
peace is made impossible by a hard-line
Likud-led Israel that refuses to accept
a Palestinian state and continues to
build settlements.
It is remarkable how this gross
inversion of the truth has become
conventional wisdom. In fact, Benjamin
Netanyahu brought his Likud-led
coalition to open recognition of a
Palestinian state, thereby creating
Israel's first national consensus for a
two-state solution. He is also the only
prime minister to agree to a settlement
freeze — 10 months — something no Labor
or Kadima government has ever done.

Israel is the only country that has
guaranteed freedom of all faiths in
Jerusalem, which must remain undivided,
Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu told
Congress Tuesday. In unusually
strong language, he told members of
Congress that Judea and Samaria are
part of the ancient Jewish homeland that
our forefathers walked in and that
the 650,000 Jews living there "are
not ‘occupying’ the region.”
Interrupted dozens of times by standing
ovations, after minutes-long applause as
he entered the chamber, Netanyahu also
said that there are 300 million Arabs in
the Middle East, but the only ones who
are free are Israeli citizens.

"Today Gaza, Tomorrow Jerusalem"
Are Israel's critics correct? Does the
"occupation" of the West Bank and Gaza
cause the Palestinian Arabs'
anti-Semitism, their suicide factories,
and their terrorism? And is it true
these horrors will end only when Israeli
civilians and troops leave the
territories?
The answer is coming soon. Starting
August 15, the Israeli government will
evict about 8,000 Israelis from Gaza and
turn their land over to the Palestinian
Authority. In addition to being a
unique event in modern history (no
other democracy has forcibly uprooted
thousands of its own citizens of one
religion from their lawful homes), it
also offers a rare, live, social-science
experiment.
We stand at an interpretive divide. If
Israel's critics are right, the Gaza
withdrawal will improve Palestinian
attitudes toward Israel, leading to an
end of incitement and a steep drop in
attempted violence, followed by a
renewal of negotiations and a full
settlement. Logic requires, after all,
that if "occupation" is the problem,
ending it, even partially, will lead to
a solution.
But I forecast a very different outcome.
Given that about 80% of Palestinian Arabs
continue to reject Israel's very
existence, signs of Israeli weakness, such
as the forthcoming Gaza withdrawal, will
instead inspire heightened Palestinian
irredentism. Absorbing their new gift
without gratitude, Palestinian Arabs will
focus on those territories Israelis have
not evacuated. (This is what happened after
Israeli forces fled Lebanon.) The
retreat will inspire not comity but a new
rejectionist exhilaration, a greater
frenzy of anti-Zionist anger, and a surge
in anti-Israel violence.
