American Response
The United States Department of State immediately responded to
this and several other prior terrorist attacks on Israeli citizens by
evenly distributing the blame between Palestinians and Israelis.

Jewish Response
In a Times of Israel article on Wednesday titled If I Forget Thee
East Jerusalem, Let My Writing Hand Wither, Joshua Davidovich
noted that news coverage in Israel has now shifted its primary
focus from the terrorist attacks themselves to the governments
response, which includes an army deployment to Jerusalem
nearly unheard of in the annals of the stateand a similarly drastic move of setting up checkpoints in East Jerusalem neighborhoods and possibly closing them off altogether.
Yedioth Ahronoths headline said, Jerusalem: Soldiers to
Guard Buses.Israel Hayom said, Army to enter cities.Haaretzs
main headline said the Israeli Cabinet Is Considering Cutting Off
East Jerusalem.
These are the early stages of the division of Jerusalemthe
once united capital of Israel.
Another Israel Hayom article said, As terrorism
mounts, Israelis take security into their own hands. It noted a
sharp increase in Israeli civilians purchasing pepper sprays, stun
guns and clubs to protect themselves. Jewish citizens are enrolling in classes where they can learn to fight like the Israeli military.
According to Israels Central Bureau of Statistics, there is
now a shortage of private security guards because of increased
demand. And those guards are now officially approved by the
Economy Ministry to work overtime.
This is leading to the fulfilment of a critical prophecy in Zechariah 14:1-2: Behold, the day of the Lord cometh, and thy spoil
shall be divided in the midst of thee. For I will gather all nations
against Jerusalem to battle; and the city shall be taken, and the
houses rifled, and the women ravished; and half of the city shall
go forth into captivity, and the residue of the people shall not be
cut off from the city.
We have been preparing you for this prophesied development
for years. When there were flare-ups between Israel and Hezbollah in the north, and then between Gaza and Israel in the south,
my father explained that the West Bank would be next, and then
finally, Jerusalem.

Left out of most of these stories is some sense of what Palestinian leaders have to say. As in these nuggets from a speech Mr.
Abbas gave last month: Al Aqsa Mosque is ours. They [Jews] have
no right to defile it with their filthy feet. And: We bless every
drop of blood spilled for Jerusalem, which is clean and pure
blood, blood spilled for Allah.
Then there is the goading of the Muslim clergy. Today, we
realize why the Jews build walls. They do not do this to stop missiles but to prevent the slitting of their throats, [said one Gaza
imam].
Then, brandishing a six-inch knife, he added: My brother in
the West Bank: Stab!
Imagine if a white minister in, say, South Carolina preached
this way about African-Americans, knife and all: Would the news
media be supine in reporting it? Would we get both sides journalism of the kind that is pro forma when it comes to Israelis
and Palestinians, with lengthy pieces explainingand implicitly
justifyingthe ministers sundry grievances, his sense that his
country has been stolen from him?

shouting out epithets like, deport, deport against the refugees, Were the people, and Merkel must go. One sign showed
Merkel as Mother Teresa but with the headline, Mother Terroresia. Other signs were directed against German haters,
the asylum mafia, and the politician pack, a reference to Vice
Chancellor Sigmar Gabriels recent strong condemnation of
right-wing, anti-refugee protesters. One protester even carried a
mock gallows with nooses attached to signs indicating they were
reserved for Merkel and Gabriel. And pegida co-founder Bachmann described the German government in a speech as our dictators in Berlin.
In Bavaria, officials at the state chapter of Germanys domestic
intelligence agency, the Office for the Protection of the Constitution, which monitors extremist activity, are speaking of a massive
verbal escalation on the part of the anti-Muslim scene. The agency
found it of particular concern that that the right-wing extremists
had clearly begun reaching previously untainted people with their
campaigns of hate. This group, too, could become a future source
of xenophobia-inspired attacks, they warn. The closing of ranks
between right-wing extremist parties and German citizens irate
over the refugee influx is a phenomenon that is worrying officials
at virtually every domestic intelligence agency in the country. Now
officials at the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution
are hoping to find ways to track down ringleaders of the npd and
other neo-Nazi parties like Die Rechte (the Right) and The Third
Way and to find ways to unsettle the scene.
Something is heading our way, says one high-ranking member of German domestic intelligence. We need to try and stop it.

Turkey.
We are far ahead of most EU countries but unfortunately,
they are not sincere, [Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip]
Erdoan said.
He took a swipe at those who suggested German Chancellor
Angela Merkel for the Nobel Peace Prize for opening Germany to
so many refugees this year.
We have 2.5 million refugees, no one cares, Erdoan said.
Turkey hosts more refugees than any other country in the
world. Hundreds of thousands are sheltered in the refugee
camps, but many more are left to fend for themselves. Europe has
seen 600,000 new arrivals this year.
After a decade of membership talks where the EU had the upper
hand, now the EU needs Turkeys help to ease the refugee crisis.
urkeys president derided Europe on Friday for not taking in more refugeesa dose of cold water for a European
Union plan to give new aid and concessions to Ankara in exchange
for stemming the unprecedented flow of people across borders.
EU leaders meeting at a summit in Brussels into the early
hours of Friday agreed to give political support for an action
plan for Turkey to help it manage its refugee emergency, including easier access to EU visas for Turkish citizens and sped-up EU
membership talks. The hard part, though, is persuading Turkey
to sign on, and raising money to make it work.
The EU package for Turkey would involve at least 3 billion
(us$3.4 billion) in aid, officials said. But member countries have
been slow to offer money for the refugee crisis overall, and are
divided over how much to help migrants and how much to help

5) Europe sees the light. Europeans are taking the view that
Moscows decisive action in neutralizing isis seems like a good
idea compared with U.S. actions that created millions of refugees
who are now flooding into Western Europe. Both Germany and
France are thinking of rolling back economic sanctions against
Russia. Thats called cost-effective diplomacy.

a Russian jet, the U.S. Air Force ordered its fighter pilots to stay
clear of areas where Russians are operating. This proximity has
allowed Russia to gather valuable intelligence on a variety of U.S.

premier stealth fighter. Such opportunities are rare .
3) isis can no longer steal Iraqi and Syrian oil. isis was selling Iraqi and Syrian crude oil on the black market for as low as
$10 a barrel. The regular market price is around $47 a barrel.
Although isis exports were just a trickle in the torrent of crude oil
flooding the world, the markets responded positively to the Russian airstrikes by moving up. Even a small uptick in the price of
oil translates into billions of dollars in revenue for Russia.
4) Russia has got Saudi Arabia over a barrel. Saudi Arabia is
losing its shirt because of its relentless production of crude oil
aimed at weakening Russia and Iran. The imf says the Saudi budget is in tatters, and the outlook appears grave for the kingdom.
Furthermore Wang accuses Western media of purposely misinterpreting the nature of the joint military exercise to fuel tensions between the two countries. As a new measure of establishing mutual trust, there is no point in making a fuss over the drill.
Confrontations in recent years were not created on purpose, but
happened by accident. Leaders from both China and India have
consensus and enough means to take divergences under control,
Wang said.He accuses Western commentators to misread these
disagreements and that, in fact, relations between Beijing and
New Delhi are quite good.
China had or would send forces to Syria, told a daily news briefing
that she had also noticed the reports.
I can tell you that as for Chinas warships, for example the Liaoning, whether it has gone to join, for this issue, as far as I know,
there is no such plan. At this time the Liaoning is in a phase of
carrying out technical training and military exercises.

Ironically, while the imf warns about the dangers of growing
debt levels caused by central bank policies, the Federal Reserve
has decided to discontinue publishing the single-most widely followed report on debt levels in America.
Back in March, the Federal Reserves Total Credit Market
Instruments report showed that total debt in America had soared
to $59 trillion.
Then suddenly the series stopped. No explanation was offered.
The Fed just stopped publishing the data.
Financial analysts wondered why the Fed would stop publishing the data. After all, it contained the most comprehensive summary of household, financial, corporate and government debt
available, all the way back to the 1950s.
Was the data becoming too embarrassing?
It showed that debt levels and Americas economy grew at
approximately the same steady rate for many years. Then more

high-grade strategy.
As of the second quarter, high-grade companies tracked by
JPMorgan incurred $119 billion in interest expenses over the last
year, the most for data going back to 2000, according to the banks
analysts. The amount the companies owed rose 4 percent in the
second quarter, the analysts said.
The fallout of more borrowing coupled with lower earnings
has raised concern among the analysts who track the debt and
the money managers who buy it. Yet it seems the companies
themselves are acting as if its not happening.
The borrowing has gotten so aggressive that for the first time
in about five years, equity fund managers who said theyd prefer
companies use cash flow to improve their balance sheets outnumbered those who said theyd rather have it returned to shareholders .
Companies have been using low interest rates to refinance
more expensive debt, but the new debt isnt saving them as much
as it used to.

Obama Took the Wrong Side on Climate Change, Says Physicist Freeman Dyson

But he took the wrong side on this issue, and the Republicans
took the right side.
Now retired, Dyson was a professor of physics at the Institute
for Advanced Study in Princeton between 1953 and 1994. Famed
for his work in quantum electrodynamics and nuclear engineering, Dyson also worked on climate studies during his career.
The physicist and mathematician argues that pollution caused
by fossil fuels has been conflated with climate change. Coal is
very unpleasant stuff, and there are problems with coal quite
apart from climate, he said.
During his interview with The Register Dyson noted shortcomings in climate models. What has happened in the past 10 years
is that the discrepancies between whats observed and whats
