Defense Minister Avigdor Liberman reiterated Israel’s position that it will “not allow the concentration of Iranian and Hezbollah forces on the Golan Heights” while in Moscow on Wednesday.

Speaking with Russian Defense Minister Sergey Shoygu and Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov while in the Russian capital for the International Moscow Security Conference, Liberman expressed Israel’s concern over Iranian activity in Syria, stating that Tehran is using Syrian soil as a base to smuggle arms to Hezbollah in Lebanon.

Liberman’s comments about Iran were echoed by Saudi Foreign Minister Adel al-Jubeir who is also in Moscow for the conference, which is being attended by defense ministers of 24 countries, including Iran and Syria and heads of seven international organizations.

Jubeir, who was meeting with Lavrov, stated that Saudi Arabia “would like to put an end to Iran’s involvement in the region.”

“We believe that they have no place in Syria or in any other part of the world. These groups influence the situations in Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, the Gulf countries, Yemen. Hezbollah is carrying out its operations in various Middle East regions and follows Iran’s agenda,” Jubeir said.

Responding to Jubeir’s comments, Lavov stated that Iranian forces and Hezbollah are in Syria at the request of Damascus and reiterated Russia’s position on Hezbollah.

“We don’t see Hezbollah as a terrorist organization. We believe that both of them [Iran and Hezbollah] – like Russia’s Air Forces – came to Syria following the request of the legitimate government,” Lavrov said.

Israeli officials have warned several times of the Iranian presence on the northern border, including in March when Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visited Moscow meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Following the meeting Netanyahu released a statement saying that “I made it clear that regarding Syria, while Israel is not opposed that there should be an agreement there, we strongly oppose the possibility that Iran and its proxies will be left with a military presence in Syria under such an agreement.”

Russia intervened in Syria on the side of President Bashar al-Assad in September 2015, but as an ally of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, Moscow finds itself part of an alliance between Damascus and Tehran.

With Israel admitting to carrying out airstrikes against weapon convoys heading to Hezbollah, including overnight Thursday against Damascus International Airport, Moscow and Jerusalem have implemented a system over Syria to coordinate their actions in order to avoid accidental clashes.

On Wednesday Liberman said that "to date, there have been nine meetings between representatives of the IDF and representatives of the Russian army. This mechanism has proven itself to be an effective mechanism that prevents unnecessary friction. "

Liberman also addressed the growing humanitarian crisis in the Gaza Strip saying that “Hamas collects taxes from Gaza Strip residents, but instead of using it for the welfare of the residents and improving the living conditions in the Strip, it invests them in manufacturing rockets and digging tunnels,” he said.

“The problem is not between Israel and the Palestinians, but rather an internal conflict among Palestinians, inside Fatah, between Hamas and Fatah and really, between Ramallah and Gaza,” Liberman added.

Gaza’s sole functioning power plant shutdown last week after fuel supplied by Qatar and Turkey ran out, reducing power supply to 1.9 million residents of the Strip to just six hours of electricity followed by 12 hour blackouts. The supply of fuel for the Strip has been a source of dispute between the Palestinian Authority and Hamas since the group took control of the Strip in a bloody coup in 2007.

IDF strikes Hamas target in Gaza in response to cross-border fire

IDF tank fire struck and destroyed a Hamas terror target in the southern Gaza Strip on Thursday shortly after shots from the Palestinian enclave were fired at Israeli forces stationed near the border, the military said.

"The IDF will continue to act with determination at all times to maintain the security of the State of Israel," the IDF said in a statement on the cross-border exchange.

While the origin of the gunfire was not immediately clear, Israel holds Hamas responsible for all aggression coming from the Strip.

There were no initial reports of injury or damage in the incident, which came shortly after the Palestinian Authority informed the Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories (COGAT) that they planned to immediately stop all payments for the electricity Israel supplies to the Gaza Strip.

The supply of fuel for the Strip has been a source of dispute between the Palestinian Authority and Hamas since the group took control of the Strip in a bloody coup in 2007 but despite the violent takeover from the Fatah, Abbas’ government in Ramallah has until recently paid the bills.

Gaza’s sole functioning power plant shutdown last week after fuel supplied by Qatar and Turkey ran out, reducing power supply to 1.9 million residents of the Strip to just six hours of electricity followed by 12 hour blackouts.

Israel supplies an estimated 30% of the electricity required in the Gaza Strip through 10 power lines which produce 125 megawatts. The cost of this energy supply, around NIS 40 million a month, was paid for by the Palestinian Authority.

A senior IDF official said that the power struggle between the PA and Hamas as well as the fuel crisis in Gaza- which is already in dire straits with a lack of infrastructure and a failed economy-could lead Hamas to clash with Israel.

“In a few days there will be no electricity in Gaza. They have a dilemma for the first time if to use the money for tunnels or electricity. They have always received electricity until now but now they will have to decide what they prefer,” he said.

Donald Trump has committed the United States to helping Israel and the Palestinians reach peace, telling visiting Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas: “We will get it done.”

Trump spoke after welcoming Abbas to the White House for a meeting aimed at relaunching talks that have failed repeatedly to resolve the decades-old conflict. “I’ve always heard that perhaps the toughest deal to make is the deal between the Israelis and the Palestinians,” Trump said. “Let’s see if we can prove them wrong.”

He insisted: “We will get it done.”

"Pizza Hut pyysi anteeksi - pilkkasi mainoksessaan palestiinalaista syömälakkoilijaa
Tänään klo 18:54

Kansainvälinen pikaruokaketju irtisanoi sopimuksensa kyseisen mainostoimiston kanssa.

Maailman suurin pitsaravintolaketju Pizza Hut on joutunut voimakkaan kritiikin kohteeksi julkaistuaan kyseenalaisen mainoksen.

Mainos julkaistiin yhtiön israelilaisella Facebook-sivustolla.

Mainoksessa pilkattiin härskisti palestiinalaista, syömälakossa olevaa miestä.

Israelin vankeinhoitolaitos julkaisi viime viikolla videon, jolla näkyy kuinka 58-vuotias Marwan Barghouti syö välipalaa vankisellissään. Barghouti johtaa palestiinalaisten syömälakkoilijoiden joukkoa.

Pizza Hut muokkasi kuvaa niin, että kuvaan lisättiin Pizza Hutin pitsalaatikko sekä teksti: "Barghouti: Jos kerran rikot syömälakkoasi, niin eikö olisi parempi syödä pitsaa?" Muokattu kuva julkaistiin sunnuntaina Pizza Hutin israelilaisilla Facebook-sivuilla.

Pizza Hut pyysi tiistaina mainosta anteeksi ja ilmoitti, että yhteistyö mainoksen suunnitelleen israelilaisen mainostoimiston kanssa on lopetettu.

- Se oli täysin sopimatonta eikä edusta meidän arvojamme tai brändiämme, yhtiö kirjoitti tiedotteessaan.

Marwan Barghouti on Fatahin militanttisiiven entinen johtaja. Hänet tuomittiin vuonna 2004 viiden ihmisen kuolemaan johtaneista hyökkäyksistä. Palestiinalaiset ovat kampanjoineet Barghoutin vapauttamiseksi jo yli kymmenen vuoden ajan.

Barghoutin vaimon mukaan video, jolla hänen miehensä rikkoo syömälakkoa, on väärennetty.

Mainostoimiston mukaan mainoksella ei ollut tarkoitus loukata ketään.

Kun kuva Pizza Hutin mainoksesta levisi sosiaalisessa mediassa, monet ilmoittivat ryhtyvänsä boikotoimaan yhtiötä.

Minuun upposi mainos, pitääpä käväistä Huttusessa eväällä joku päivä! :D

The Al-Mayadeen TV network reported today (Saturday) that Lebanese security forces arrested an Iraqi national on suspicion of collaborating with and gathering information for Israel in Lebanon and Iraq. According to the report, a statement issued by Hezbollah claimed that the detainee confessed during the interrogation to the charges made against him and has been tried.

According to the Hezbollah publication, the detainee said he had been recruited by officers of a service belonging to the Israeli Ministry of Defense, which deals with overseas activities, assassinations and training of combatants. Reportedly, the detainee was asked to provide security information on the Lebanese army and people in Lebanon, as well as to recruit additional people to set up an espionage network in Lebanon.

The detainee is also accused of connecting his Israeli handler with his brother in Iraq in order to gather information about the Iraqi government’s activities. According to reports, Lebanese security forces are currently working to arrest the other members of the asset’s network.

How should we remember the Six Day War?
ByAlan Elsner
May 18, 2017 11:41

As we approach the 50th anniversary of the Six Day War, a struggle is already developing over how this landmark historical event is commemorated and interpreted.

ON THE one hand, the Israeli government and its allies and supporters abroad would no doubt much prefer to focus solely on the war itself, recalling it as an attempt by the Arab world to destroy Israel and throw its Jewish population into the sea. In this telling of the story, Israel’s stunning military triumph emerges as an almost divinely inspired event, culminating in the extraordinary reunification of Jerusalem.

Some, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, will no doubt argue that not much has actually changed in the last half century. The Arabs surrounding Israel refused to accept its existence then, they will say, and many still refuse to accept its existence as a Jewish state today.

And, of course, Israel also faces deadly threats to its existence from the likes of Iran, ISIS, Hezbollah and Hamas, which make no secret of their desire to wipe Israel off the map.

Of course, that ignores 40 years of peacemaking between Israel and the Arab world that have yielded the substantial achievements of peace treaties with Egypt and Jordan. It also disregards the official recognition by the Palestinians of Israel as an independent state almost a quarter of a century ago.

Palestinians and their allies, in contrast, are already seeking to tell a vastly different story, seeing the war as ushering in 50 years of Israeli occupation and denial of their legitimate rights by a brutal military authority in the service of a racist ideology.

In this narrative, there is no place for recalling past Arab attempts to snuff out Israel’s existence, nor for the stream of Arab and Islamic thought that, even today, cannot accept Jewish national rights in their historic homeland. Nonetheless, this narrative is likely to dominate much of the discourse in the international arena.

For some Jewish communities in the United States, the subject is simply too hot to handle. One senior official of a Jewish federation in a major US city recently told me her institution will largely skip over the Six Day War and look to the upcoming 70th anniversary of Israel’s independence in 2018 as a more suitable hook around which to build educational programming about Israel.

I believe celebration of 1967 is appropriate because the war did deliver our people from a potential tragedy. I am old enough to remember the fear and trepidation that gripped my Zionist family in the weeks preceding the war. Though it’s hard to believe now, many believed the armed forces of a country not yet 20 years old would be no match for the combined might of several Arab states. There was a palpable sense of dread that we were on the brink of a new catastrophe barely a generation after the Holocaust.

I also remember the relief and euphoria that swept over us as it became clear that little Israel had scored a stunning victory. I recall, as a 13-year-old in London, riding the school bus with a new pride, boasting of the victory to my friends.

It will be lovely to go back to that time and relive those emotions.

But, clearly, there is much, much more we need to talk about.

The Six Day War was a watershed in Israel’s development. It heralded the emergence as a national force of a new form of Zionism fueled by a quasi-messianic religious and nationalist zeal. It gave birth to the settlement movement. And it marked the beginning of what has turned into one of the longest military occupations of one people by another in modern history.

We owe it to ourselves to look honestly at what the experience of controlling and suppressing millions of Palestinians has done both to them and to us. This should be a time for a collective heshbon nefesh – an examination of our conscience and of the state of our national soul.

In discussing an existential threat of the past to Israel, we also should acknowledge and discuss the biggest existential threat to its future, namely a continuation of the occupation without any end in sight. Absent a two-state solution, Israel will soon face a fateful choice between remaining a democracy or remaining a homeland for the Jewish people with a Jewish majority. It won’t be able to do both.

So, yes, I would like to remember and celebrate the victory of 1967. But, once we’ve done celebrating, let’s talk.

COMMENT: TRUMP’S RIYADH INITIATIVE IS A GAME CHANGER FOR ISRAEL
BY MIKE EVANS

MAY 22, 2017 21:18

Now Trump has taken Netanyahu’s strategic objective and put it on steroids.

Trump’s Riyadh initiative is a game changer for Israel COMMENT • By MIKE EVANS Donald Trump has accomplished more in 24 hours in Saudi Arabia then all American presidents combined in their past initiatives with the Gulf oil states.

He has just united and empowered those countries against their common enemy, Shiite Iran. It’s the proxy deal of the century.



Barack Obama did the opposite – he betrayed an American, democratic ally and empowered an American enemy, Assad, with his liberal-left Shiite-leaning deals.

The Shiite-Sunni battle has taken the spotlight off Israel as the obstacle to peace in the Middle East. It is the best possible thing that could have happened to support Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s “red line” regarding Iran.



It will be an enormous help in dealing with the Syrian, Hezbollah and ISIS crises on Israel’s borders.

The new wars of the 21st century are economic wars. Broadway’s Middle East play is entitled “Show me the Money.”

President Trump showed the Sunnis the money and money was the ultimate deal.

Netanyahu has accomplished more than any other Israeli prime minister in building global alliances for Israel with TTP antiterrorism technology to bring peace, including bonds in Saudi Arabia.

Now Trump has taken Netanyahu’s strategic objective and put it on steroids.

Wars of the 21st-century are also ideological wars. The speech in Riyadh defined the terms of the debate. He who defines the terms controls the debate.

Israel cannot win ideological wars on its own. The ultimate branding genius is in Jerusalem – Donald Trump.

Perception is reality, especially in the Middle East. Israel has become the collective target for Jew-haters, and President Trump is attempting to rebrand Israel.

Ultimately, at the end of the day, only two men can solve the problem – Benjamin Netanyahu and Donald Trump.

Solving the problem will be a lot easier if Israel does not have to exhaust its resources dealing with the crises with Iran, Syria, and ISIS and the economic global crisis caused by BDS, Jew-haters and Gulf Sunni states funding terror against Israel.
