Israeli officials are thinking about reoccupying the Sinai Peninsula because of the growing prospect of infiltration by al-Qaida and other militants such as Hamas, the inability of the Egyptian military to guarantee security and the prospect of a cut-off of vital natural gas supplies flowing through a repeatedly sabotaged pipeline. "The Sinai is already known as a lawless land," according to a senior Israeli official. "There is real concern that if the Egyptians don't get the Sinai back under their control, it could develop into a major threat to Israel."
Israeli officials are thinking about reoccupying the Sinai Peninsula because of the growing prospect of infiltration by al-Qaida and other militants such as Hamas, the inability of the Egyptian military to guarantee security and the prospect of a cut-off of vital natural gas supplies flowing through a repeatedly sabotaged pipeline.
Israeli officials already have warned of a heightened terrorist threat from the Sinai. In April, Israeli aircraft attacked a car said to be carrying three Hamas operatives allegedly planning to abduct Israelis there.
Since the fall of Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak in January, Israel has become increasingly concerned with the security of the Sinai, some 23,000 square miles.
Egyptian authorities also claim they can no longer maintain security in the region. Egyptian police are abandoning their remote stations and checkpoints, which are coming under increased attacks from Bedouin tribesmen in the region. Bedouin tribesmen ransacked numerous abandoned government facilities and have threatened to attack south Sinai oil installations and tourist resorts.
"The Sinai is already known as a lawless land," according to a senior Israeli official. "There is real concern that if the Egyptians don't get the Sinai back under their control, it could develop into a major threat to Israel."
Food for Thought by Steven Shamrak
There was no Lebanon-Israel sea border demarcation dispute until Israel discovered oil and gas in Mediterranean Sea. It proves again that the Arab-Israel conflict is sustained only by greed for oil and traditional anti-Semitism of Jewish traditional 'friends'.
US rejected Arab League's support for PA's UN statehood bid. State department says group's "diplomatic offensive" on plans to ask world body to recognise a Palestinian state along 1967 lines "will not lead to a comprehensive settlement."
(In their attempt to destroy Israel using the Stage plan, Arabs are trying to obtain Jewish land, referring to the UN resolution 242 - which they had rejected at the time!)
Netanyahu is Gutless as Usual
Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu may have instigated a crisis with his largest coalition partner, Israel Beiteinu, by announcing that he will oppose the establishment of a parliamentary inquiry committee into left-wing and human rights non-governmental organisations. Netanyahu said: "We don't need investigations in the Knesset". Lieberman warns his party will be free to act independently if coalition discipline is not enforced.
(Why does the Prime Minister of Israel not want to fight anti-Israel elements?)
Another Stupid War with NO Result
The Libyan war virtually ended on Thursday morning, July 14, when US President Barack Obama called Russian President Dmitry Medvedev to hand Moscow the lead in peace negotiations for Muammar Qaddafi to step down and make way for a transitional administration. He thereby accepted the Russian-Libyan peace formula over NATO's heads.
New Bogus Issue is Pushed by Arabs
Lebanon's president and foreign minister rebuked Israel for its plan to mark the two countries' maritime border, vowing to wage a diplomatic offensive to thwart Jerusalem's efforts to ensure unrestricted access to lucrative natural gas reserves.
Quote of the Week:
"Why are Muslims so powerless? All we do is shout to Allah the whole day - and blame everyone else for our multiple failures!" - Dr. Farrukh Saleem, Pakistani Executive Director of the Center for Research and Security Studies, and Islamabad-based freelance columnist.
In December 1941, in Constanta, 767 Jews boarded a boat named the Struma. They planned to travel to Istanbul, apply for visas to Palestine, and then sail to Palestine. The Struma was unsafe and overcrowded. Struma managed to reach Istanbul Harbor only to wait while Turkey, trying to stay 'neutral' in the war, deliberated the passengers' fate.
The boat was kept in quarantine in Istanbul' s harbor for more than two months. Turkish authorities denied the passengers permission to land without British agreement to their continued journey to Palestine. On February 23, 1942, the Turkish police towed the boat out to sea and abandoned it. The next day, on February 24, the boat sank. Although the cause of the sinking is not definitively known, it is assumed that it was mistakenly torpedoed by a Soviet submarine. Only one passenger, David Stoliar, survived. Over 100 children were killed.
The sinking of the Struma led to widespread international protest against Britain 's policy on immigration into Palestine. Jews blamed the British, and particularly Sir Harold McMichael, High Commissioner for Palestine, for this tragedy.
(The United Kingdom was the main initiator of the blockade of Jewish immigration from Europe and collaborated with Arabs in the prevention of Jewish return to Palestine, which was designated for the Jewish state by the League of Nations in July 1922. At the same time Arab migration to Palestine was supported and encouraged by British 'overseers')
Hidden Ugliness Committed by the Enemies of Jews!
The Germans had made TWO contracts (Rhublee-Wohltat and Haavarra Agreements) with Jewish groups to deport millions of Jews from Europe to Palestine. The 'Leaving' (Deportation) was not stopped by the Germans but the Arabs, who told the British if they continued to send Jews to Palestine, they (Arabs) would cut off the British oil supply. The Brits (who did not need much convincing) BLOCKADED all German attempts to send the Jews to Palestine.
(Other countries, including the United States , were active participants in facilitating of the Holocaust atrocity!)
About author: Steven Shamrak, born in the Soviet Union, lives in Melbourne Australia. He is a qualified civil engineer and software specialist, and was an active participant in the nascent Moscow Zionist movement before he arrived in Australia 25 years ago. Believing that "a sense of pride, nationhood and connection to all Jewish land" is missing from Jewish hearts, he spends his spare time Educating Jews and non-Jews about Jewish history in the Middle East.
He worked as a construction engineer at the Moscow Olympic Games project and as a computer consultant in Australia. For several years, he has been publishing an Internet editorial letter about the Arab-Israel conflict since August 2001 and has a website http://www.shamrak.com.
The Investigative Project on Terrorism (IPT) has found that scores of known radical Islamists made hundreds of visits to the Obama White House, meeting with top administration officials. Among the visitors were officials representing groups which have been designated by the Department of Justice as unindicted co-conspirators in terrorist trials; terrorist groups including Hamas and Hezbollah; groups that have obstructed terrorist investigations by instructing their followers to not cooperate with law enforcement; promoted the incendiary conspiratorial allegation that the United States is engaged in a "war against Islam"; repeatedly claimed that many of the Islamic terrorists convicted since September 11 were framed by the U.S government as part of an anti-Muslim profiling campaign
Israel is only 1/6 of 1% of the landmass of the Middle East. Israel publishes more books per capita than any other nation in the world. Israel's dairy cows are the most productive dairy cows in the world. Israel is the only country in the Middle East where women enjoy full political rights. An advisor to the Hamas government in Gaza, Kana'an 'Obeid, urged his movement this week to refrain from emulating the PLO in making political concessions and adopting pragmatist policies. Instead, he called upon Hamas to declare that it was created to eliminate the State of Israel.
Most of them are aware that there is something wrong with their self-hating attitude toward their own country, but still unwilling or unable to address this self-destructive and self-hating behaviour and revise their psychologically induced political standing. With the progress made in the field of modern phycology they do not have an excuse for this shameful conduct any more. They really need to start self-soul searching and address these problems seriously!
This means that the United Kingdom had illegally ceded the Trans-Jordan to the refugees from the Saudi Arabian Peninsula. And the United Nation's partition plan of the remaining parts of Palestine in 1947 was also illegal. In addition, in spite of the fact that the partition plan was devised to sabotage the creation of the Jewish homeland (the creation of two states on six ugly triangles - a completely unworkable political map). The Arabs rejected it! Therefore, they lost any legal standing on the land. They knew it and that is one reason why seven Muslim states declared the war on Israel in 1948!
On September 28th the world was supposed to celebrate, but conveniently forgot the anniversary of the Israeli-Palestinian Interim Agreement, widely known as the Oslo Accords. Three political stooges Yasser Arafat, Yitzhak Rabin and Shimon Perez received the Nobel Peace prize for signing this worthless piece of paper, which was based on fake promises made by Yasser Arafat in a letter to the Prime Minister of Israel, Rabin on 9 September, 1993. In this letter Yasser Arafat promised: "The PLO considers that the signing of the Declaration of Principles constitutes an historic event, inaugurating a new epoch of peaceful coexistence, free from violence and all other acts which endanger peace and stability.

About the KingsCalendar Publisher
R.P.BenDedek is the owner and Editor of KingsCalendar.com which was originally set up to publicize his research results into the Chronology of Ancient Israel. Those results were published under the title: 'The King's Calendar: The Secret of Qumran'.
Whilst there have been many attempts to solve the chronological riddle of the Bible's synchronisms of reigns of the kings of Israel and Judah and their synchronism with other Ancient Near Eastern Nations, no other research is based on a simple mathematical formula which could, if it is incorrect, be disproved easily. To date, no one has been able to dismiss the mathematical results of this research.
Free to air Academic articles set forth Apologetics for and results of his discovery of an "artificial chronological scheme" running through the Bible, Josephus, the Damascus Documents of the Dead Sea Scrolls, and Seder Olam Rabbah.
During the current economic downturn, this book has been drastically reduced in price but will eventually rise as the economy improves.
