<p><img src="http://www.onejerusalem.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/b111514A.jpg" alt="MIDEAST ISRAEL PALESTINIANS" title="MIDEAST ISRAEL PALESTINIANS" width="300" height="422" style="float:right;margin:10px" />The protests were sparked by <a href="http://www.intel.com/intel/location/Israel.htm">Intel&#8217;s</a> opening of a new facility near the ultra-orthodox area; the company has operated on Saturday&#8217;s for more than twenty years, and plans to continue to do so. </p>
<p>Intel is one of Israel&#8217;s biggest corporate supporters. They first opened a plant in Haifa in 1974 and in Jerusalem in 1984. By the year 2000, they employed more than 4000 Israelis. </p>
<p>Most businesses in Jerusalem close down for the Sabbath and those which stay open tend not to be located near haredi neighborhoods. There has always been tension in Jerusalem between secular and ultra-Orthodox Jews, who make up one third of the city&#8217;s population. Well starting last year, things began to get worse. First, voters elected a secular <a href="http://www.startupjerusalem.org/bio-Barkat.htm">mayor</a> to replace the ultra-Orthodox incumbent, and then City Hall decided to open a municipal parking lot on Shabbat near the <a href="http://www.jpost.com/servlet/Satellite?cid=1236698765252&#038;name=Mea+She%27arim&#038;pagename=JPost%2FPage%2FTags">Meah Shearim</a> neighborhood. These instances have been the cause of much controversy and violence over the last year, occasionally splashing onto the headlines.</p>
<p>What we have here dear readers is a &#8220;failure to communicate&#8221; as Paul Newman once put it in &#8220;Cool Hand Luke.&#8221; Who is right and who is wrong? This is a mere reflection of the case of the disappearing <a href="http://songofthefrigiddegrees.blogspot.com/2009/09/shir-hamaalot-song-of-frigid-degrees.html">public sphere</a> in the Jewish Country. There needs to a modifier, a common law to entice both sides to come together. It should be the blending of ancient Torah values, with modern Zionist vision; and an effective change of attitude should start in <a href="http://www.mfa.gov.il/MFA/Facts+About+Israel/Education/Education.htm">school</a>. </p>

The state would include the West Bank, the Gaza Strip, and East Jerusalem. The idea which <a href="http://www.onejerusalem.com/tag/mahmoud-abbas/">Abbas</a> is behind would be proposed to the <a href= "http://www.onejerusalem.com/tag/united-nations/">United Nations</a>, who would vote on acceptance of a sovereign Palestinian country, in the proposed regions. </p>
<p>Israel sees this as a threat to the grueling peace process. <a href= "http://emm.newsexplorer.eu/NewsExplorer/entities/en/281312.html"><strong>Mohammed Shtayyeh</strong></a>, a member of the <a href="http://www.onejerusalem.com/tag/fatah/">Fatah Central Council</a> in <a href="http://ramallahonline.com/">Ramallah</a> said:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;The Israelis impeded negotiations, and therefore we are left with only this option in order to safeguard our national project…We have been left with no other choices and nothing to lose…How can Abbas or any other Palestinian leader survive in this context without political developments? This is the only thing we can offer our people now. The time is right.&#8221;<br />
Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu said, &#8220;There is no substitute for negotiations between Israel and the Palestinian Authority, and any unilateral path will only unravel the framework of agreements between us and will only bring unilateral steps from Israel&#8217;s side.&#8221;
</p></blockquote>
<p>Another angle of the debate is the media factor. Who will be giving support to who and why?<br />
Have a look:</p>
<p><strong>EDITORIAL IN ISRAEL&#8217;S <a href="http://www.jpost.com/servlet/Satellite?cid=1258027301589&#038;pagename=JPost%2FJPArticle%2FShowFull">JERUSALEM POST</a></strong><br />
So rather than bargain in good faith to build a viable accord, Saeb Erekat and Mahmoud Abbas are betting on an outside imposed solution. Their way will not bring reconciliation, mutual security and peace, but doom yet another generation of Israelis and Palestinians to more bloodshed.</p>
<p><strong>EDITORIAL IN JORDAN&#8217;S AL-DUSTOUR<br />
</strong>The policies of occupation, especially continuing settlement-building, have caused the failure of negotiations and have led the peace process to a gridlock… The idea of declaring the establishment of an independent Palestinian state has emerged strongly during this stage as a sole option. This is a legitimate right. </p>
<p><strong>BEN KASPIT IN ISRAEL&#8217;S MA&#8217;ARIV</strong><br />
Benjamin Netanyahu spoke in Jerusalem yesterday but his words were aimed at Ramallah. The threat was explicit. Your unilateral steps will lead to unilateral steps on our part… In the end both sides threaten but they do not really mean it</p>
<p><strong>EDITORIAL IN SAUDI <a href= "http://alwatandaily.alwatan.com.kw/Default.aspx?pageId=481">AL-WATAN</a></strong><br />
The Palestinian leaders, especially those who have been supporting the Oslo accords, came to a consensus that 18 years have gone astray and that Israel has been stalling in order to achieve its goal, which entails setting up a Jewish state with Jerusalem as its eternal capital.</p>
<p><strong>HASAN AL-BATAL IN PALESTINIAN AL-AYYAM </strong><br />
The strong Israel is afraid of weak Palestine. In reality, it is afraid of its own nightmares as expressed by Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman&#8230; He sees that the establishment of a Palestinian state will push Israel back to the 1967 borders, only for the Palestinians to ask for autonomous rule in the Galilee and the Negev after that.</p>
<p><strong>ALUF BENN IN <a href="http://www.haaretz.com/hasen/spages/1128536.html"> HA&#8217;ARETZ</a></strong><br />
Netanyahu has returned to power after a decade and is again fighting a Palestinian threat to declare statehood in the West Bank and Gaza Strip… If Netanyahu acts correctly, he will again be able to take pride in his ability to foil Palestinian declarations of statehood, just as he did during his first term as prime minister. </p>
<p><strong>ONE JERUSALEM</strong><br />
Given the chaos in the region, such a UN vote as that which accepted Israel as a sovereign nation in 1948 is both premature and irresponsible. A state was given to the Palestinian people before further territories were captured by Israel forces in 1967. However the proposal went refused. To think that a new country, justified by a unilateral United Nations vote would not fall either immediately into a civil war or let power slip into the hands of Hamas, is insane. The plan spells war and why should Israel be forced to expose her sovereign territories like that? </p>

Altogether 70 coins were found in an excavation site near the <a href= "http://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jsource/Judaism/Western_Wall.html"><strong>Kotel</strong></a>.</p>
<p><a href="http://archaeology.huji.ac.il/depart/classical/gabrielab/gabrielab.asp"><strong>Gabriela Bijovsky</strong></a>, an antique coin expert from the <a href= "http://www.antiquities.org.il/shod_eng.asp"><strong>Israel Antique Authority</strong></a> said:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;These really show us the impact of the destruction of Jerusalem in the first century…These are a very vivid, dramatic example of that destruction… The most important coins we have are from those last four or five years of the rebellion against the Roman army, and one coin we found was actually minted very close to the destruction of the <a href="http://www.kingsolomonlegend.com/the-temple-in-jerusalem.html">Second Temple</a>.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p><img src="http://www.onejerusalem.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/ALeqM5i1bTo1-WUFESMxRloQPBvK0ad7xg-300x199.jpg" alt="MIDEAST ISRAEL RARE COINS" title="MIDEAST ISRAEL RARE COINS" width="300" height="199" style="float:right;margin:10px" />The Jews of Judea rebelled against the Roman Empire in A.D. 66, when they kicked Roman forces out of Jerusalem. In A.D. 70, after Roman legions had won many important battles throughout the country, they breached the city walls. They went through the streets of Jerusalem killing Jewish civilians regardless of gender or age and finally destroyed the Temple, Judaism&#8217;s holiest site.</p>
<p>The coins were found in an excavation site of an ancient street below the Temple Mount. Archaeologists sifted through debris and boulders which was thrown off of the Temple Mount during the raid, when they found the road and the hoards of coins.</p>
<p>The coins are part of a larger exhibition at <a href= "http://www.fodors.com/world/africa-and-middle-east/israel/jerusalem/review-92397.html"><strong>Jerusalem&#8217;s Archaeological Garden</strong></a>. They are cased in glass. Some are melted down to unrecognizable chunks of carbonized bronze; the damage is from the flames which destroyed the Temple.</p>
<p>Also featured in the exhibit are <a href="http://www.solomon-seals.com/">other coins</a> found in the holy site at Jerusalem, in the last three years from Europe, North Africa and Persia. The display testifies to the wonderful eclectic and international character of Jerusalem 2,000 years ago; minus one Holy Temple, things have not changed so much.</p>

<p><object width="425" height="344" style="float:left;margin:10px"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/D3_l23yczy8&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1&#038;rel=0"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/D3_l23yczy8&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1&#038;rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>They wrote that they are a group that &#8220;knows a thing or two about losing loved ones,&#8221; the women urged the prime minister to bring Gilad home: </p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;We ask to meet with you in order to hear from you personally when the tragic saga of Gilad Shalit will be over, so that we will not have to continue our protest…Some of us have lost many family members in murderous terror attacks and have still found the courage to ask that the planners of those attacks would be released so Gilad is rescued. You must also find the determination and courage to stop gambling on the life and sanity of Gilad and return him to his family immediately&#8230;We hope the prime minister will agree to meet with us as soon as possible in order to finally bring an end to this unfortunate affair.&#8221; </p></blockquote>
<p>Shalit has a dual citizenship with France and Israel. French President <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nicolas_Sarkozy"><strong>Nicolas Sarkozy</strong></a> has vowed to make every effort to bring about Shalit&#8217;s release from <a href= "www.onejerusalem.com/tag/hamas/page/3/">Hamas</a> captivity. </p>
<p>Earlier this year a videotape surfaced, ensuring that Shalit, who has been held captive in the Gaza Strip by Hamas, since June 25th 2006, is in fact still alive. </p>

When Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon went up there in 2000, it caused the second <a href="www.onejerusalem.com/tag/third-intifada/"><strong>Intifada</strong></a>. Jews visiting the ruin, which houses the Dome of the Rock mosque, has been the cause of Arabs rioting in the past. And there have been halachic rulings by orthodox rabbis, forbidding Jews to visit the site. However non-Muslims, during the morning on certain days of the week can scale the bridge from the Old City and visit the other side of the <a href="http://english.thekotel.org/cameras.asp">Kotel</a> – but alas are forbidden to pray.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.onejerusalem.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/Jerusalem-MuhammedMuheisen.jpg" alt="MIDEAST ISRAEL PALESTINIANS" title="MIDEAST ISRAEL PALESTINIANS" width="350" height="218" style="float:left;margin:10px" />Officially, there really is no plan set in stone for visiting there, like there is in Hebron, at the <a href="http://www.machpela.com/english/"><strong>Cave of Machpelah</strong></a>; and such a plan would have a set time for Jewish prayers, however the Islamic Christian Society in Support of Jerusalem says that this would be unacceptable. However, they have yet to explain their reasoning. </p>
<p>If Israel were to give East Jerusalem to the Palestinians, Jews and probably other non-Muslims would be kissing away their dream of holding religious communion at the Temple Mount. Additionally, Christians should fear what would happen if the <strong><a href="http://www.onejerusalem.com/2006/03/28/church-of-the-holy-sepulchre-in-jerusalem-%E2%80%93-photo-essay/">Church of the Holy Sepulchre</a></strong> became under Palestinian control. Putting the threat of violence on the State of Israel aside, religious tolerance would obviously become enforced in Jerusalem&#8217;s Old City.</p>
<p>In Bethlehem, during the Intifada, PLO terrorists fled to the Christian Church, which is the scene of the Nativity for Christians. They held the monks hostage, stole valuables, left feces all over, starved the Christians and all but ruined the site. </p>
<p>In Jerusalem, Muslims built themselves a mosque taller than the holiest Christian edifice in the city, just to undermine it. They built toilets overhanging it and they broke through a wall into a couple of storerooms of the Church, and occupied them.  The PLO refused to return the rooms, until after much protest, Arafat finally gave in.   </p>
<p>Religious Christians who would like to see Israel lose control of East Jerusalem and holy sites in the West Bank must be out of their mind, unless they are thinking of converting to Islam. </p>

<p>The Hezbollah-owned television station, Al-Manar, condemned the distribution of a textbook in an English language school in Lebanon, because it contained excerpts from <a href="http://www.annefrank.org/content.asp?pid=1&#038;lid=2">&#8220;<strong>The Diary of Anne Frank</strong>.&#8221;</a></p>
<p>In their report, Al-Manar made claims that the distribution of the book was in violation of a Lebanese law, which bans the import of Israeli goods and Lebanese cooperation with Israeli institutions. </p>
<p>About the book, which both English and Arabic translations have apparently been sold for years in Lebanon, <strong><a href="http://www.almanar.com.lb/newsSite/News.aspx?language=en">Al-Manar</a></strong> wrote on their website, is &#8220;focus[ing] on the persecution of Jews during the war, but even more dangerous is the theatrical and dramatic method employed to narrate the diary [entries] in an emotional way.&#8221;</p>
<p><img src="http://www.onejerusalem.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/iron-dome-300x198.jpg" alt="iron dome" title="iron dome" width="300" height="198" style="float:right;margin:10px" />A lawyer who represents the Committee for the Boycott of Zionist Goods, named Naeem Qal&#8217;ani said during the Al-Manar TV report:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;This act is definitely punishable under the penal code, and the dealers and importers of the book will certainly be prosecuted…It&#8217;s a flagrant violation of the law and is a move towards normalization [with Israel]. The Prosecutor-General&#8217;s Office must take action immediately, for this is a criminal act.&#8221;
</p></blockquote>
<p>Since the television report the school has removed the textbook from its curriculum. Omar Nashsabe an editor at the Lebanese daily &#8220;Al-Akhbar&#8221;, however, came to the book&#8217;s defense:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;The law [banning Israeli goods] talks about the State of Israel: the Israeli flag, Israeli institutions, the Israeli entity, as a nation…Anne Frank is not Israeli. Anne Frank is part of world literature.&#8221;
</p></blockquote>
<p>A statement was released by <a href="http://amgathering.com/">The American Gathering of Jewish Holocaust Survivors and Their Descendants</a>, &#8220;denounc[ing] this disgraceful act as a twin blow against decency. It is a blatant expression of Holocaust denial, and an assault on one of the great works of modern literature and civilization.&#8221;<br />
The book remains off of the curriculum of the school, which remains nameless.</p>
<p>Mean while in related news, during a recent briefing, IDF Chief of Staff, <a href= "www.onejerusalem.com/tag/gabi-ashkenazi/"><strong>Gabi Ashkenazi</strong></a> told reporters that with Iran&#8217;s help, Hezbollah has gotten their hands on &#8220;tens of thousands&#8221; of rockets to be used against Israel in an upcoming war. While most of the rockets have the same limited range as the ones fired at Israel during the <a href= "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2006_Lebanon_War">Second Lebanon War</a>, some of them have a range of over 300 kilometers. </p>
<p>Also in the briefing, Ashkenazi informed that in 2010 Israel will deploy the first two <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_Dome">&#8220;Iron Dome&#8221;</a> batteries on the Gaza border. While it will make Israel a harder target, it will not be 100%. Ashkenazi said, &#8220;You cannot build a canopy of iron over the whole country. It is an illusion. In future wars, rockets will fall here.&#8221; Instead the goal of the &#8220;Iron Dome&#8221; is to reduce the amount of incidents and increase warning times to allow the IDF to evacuate areas where rockets could hit.</p>
<p>It is needless to recount the IDF&#8217;s seizure last week of an Antiguan vessel carrying Iranian arms to a Syrian Hezbollah station. These guys are ready for war and still insist that they were the victor&#8217;s of the 2006 Israeli invasion. Obviously they fear that Netanyahu&#8217;s Israel will take another stab at crushing Hezbollah in Lebanon, prior to any kind of strike on Iran.<br />
What will happen next? Only fate can tell&#8230;</p>

The possibility is there…There have been incidences of late that do not indicate that we have challenges on that front, and I&#8217;m very committed to doing everything I can to make sure that Congress remains Israel&#8217;s strongest ally in the quest for what it needs in terms of its security.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;I have a lot of concerns about what I have seen lately, about the continued desire to try to engage with Iran and about pressure being applied to Israel in terms of concessions in the name of peace…Israel is a pillar in our national security strategy and we ought to be emphasizing every bit of our commitment to Israel right now as it faces an existential threat.&#8221; </p></blockquote>
<p>On Tuesday, President Barack Obama was supposed to speak at the Jewish Federations of North America&#8217;s annual General Assembly, but pulled out at last minute to attend the memorial service for the victims of the Fort Hood massacre, last week. Chief of Staff Rahm Emmanuel spoke in his place.</p>
<p>Late Sunday the White House confirmed that on Monday Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu is coming to Washington to address the General Assembly and also to meet with members of Congress.  While no conversations are scheduled between Netanyahu and Obama, Netanyahu is not concerned that the President has all together turned his back, expressed Bibi&#8217;s spokeswoman Nir Hefetz.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;If the trip&#8217;s objective had been to meet with the president of the United States, then such a meeting would have been secured in advance of the trip…The prime minister decided to travel to Washington to address the second largest Jewish community in the world after Israel, the American Jewish community.&#8221;
</p></blockquote>
<p>Netanyahu&#8217;s agenda in Washington was to give an update on Israel&#8217;s diplomatic situation, including the controversy over the Goldstone Commission&#8217;s Report and the threat from Tehran. </p>

There are two schools of thought regarding the origins of the <a href="http://www.gnosis.org/library/scroll.htm">Dead Sea Scrolls</a>. Many historians claim that they were written by a scribe from the ascetic Jewish sect the <a href="http://www.essenespirit.com/who.html">Essenes</a>, of whom it is also claimed inhabited the Herodian fort at <a href="http://mosaic.lk.net/g-masada.html">Masada</a>. </p>
<p><img src="http://www.onejerusalem.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/deadseascroll-300x224.jpg" alt="dead sea scroll" title="dead sea scroll" width="300" height="224" style="float:left;margin:10px" />While others, including professor <a href="http://nelc.uchicago.edu/facultypages/golb/">Norman Golb</a> of the University of Chicago, that in fact the scrolls were the collective work of a larger range of Jewish communities. A harmless, <a href="http://www.chabad.org/search/keyword_cdo/kid/10491/jewish/Machloket.htm>&#8220;machloket&#8221;</a> among a group of prominent Jewish scholars, or so it seems.</p>
<p>Last week things got ugly however, when Raphael Golb, a 49-year-old lawyer and son of professor Norman Golb, opened an email account in the name of <a href= "http://lawrenceschiffman.com/">Lawrence Schiffman</a>, a famous Jewish studies professor at New York University. With the phony account, Golb sent messages to NYU students and officials, in which Schiffman admitted to plagiarizing and misrepresenting Norman Golb&#8217;s work. Apparently Golb opened other email accounts under other aliases to send emails and post on various blogs, in order to &#8220;color the debate.&#8221;</p>
<p>According to Golb&#8217;s attorney, Ronald Kuby, Golb denies having sent the emails. He explains that they were merely an &#8220;intellectual prank&#8221;, and that:</p>
<blockquote><p>An attempt to influence a public academic debate by emails and blog postings authored under assumed names cannot be an object of criminal laws designed to protect people from fraud, threats or physical harm.<br />
The court has yet to rule on Kuby&#8217;s attempt to have the charges dismissed. </p></blockquote>
<p>The Dead Sea Scrolls are dated at more than 2,000-years-old. They were found in the 1940&#8217;s, in British occupied Palestine, just before the founding of the State of Israel, by a young Bedouin. The scrolls were placed in clay jars and hidden in a cave in the Judean Desert, most likely around the time of Judea&#8217;s Revolt on Rome (66-70 c.e.) near the Dead Sea, hence the name of the scrolls. They are the oldest existing copy of Hebrew scripture, known in the world.</p>

The weaponry was sent by Iran and destined for <a href="http://www.onejerusalem.com/tag/hezbollah/">Hezbollah</a>, in Syria.</p>
<p>The IDF was monitoring the <a href="http://www.vesseltracker.com/en/Ships/Francop-9277412.html">Francop</a> for several days before Navy Seals boarded it in the middle of the night. When they found the dangerous cargo, they easily commandeered it and sailed it to Israel. </p>
<p>The government of Antigua informed Israeli Intelligence that a ship left from the <a href="http://www.iranchamber.com/cities/bandar_abbas/bandar_abbas.php">Bandar-Abbas Port</a> in Iran with cargo which was shipped through the Suez Canal, unloaded in the Mediterranean Port of Damietta in Egypt and then loaded onto the <strong>Francop</strong>. The intended destination was the <a href="http://www.cmc-sy.com/latakia_port.htm">Latakia Port</a> in Syria.</p>
<p>The ship&#8217;s crew was unaware that there were weapons on board, as they were disguised as humanitarian aid.<br />
Syrian Foreign Minister <a href="http://www.silobreaker.com/walid-muhi-eddine-moallem-11_3651831">Walid Moallem</a> denied the entire event. He said:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Unfortunately there are official pirates disrupting the movement of goods between Iran and Syria, I stress, the ship was not carrying Iranian arms bound for Syria, nor was it carrying material for manufacturing weapons in Syria. It was carrying [commercial] goods from Syria to Iran.&#8221;
</p></blockquote>
<p>Meanwhile both Prime Minister <a href="http://www.onejerusalem.com/tag/binyamin-netanyahu/">Binyamin Netanyahu</a> and President <a href="http://www.onejerusalem.com/tag/shimon-peres/">Shimon Peres</a> complimented the Navy and the IDF, for the exemplary execution of a critical operation. </p>
<p>Today in Knesset, <a href="http://www.onejerusalem.com/tag/tzipi-livni/">Tzipi Livni</a> said:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;We all today praise the Navy and IDF over the seizure of the ship &#8211; it&#8217;s not a controversial matter. There are issues over which there are no coalition and opposition. We are all partners in the people of Israel&#8217;s war on terror &#8211; whether it&#8217;s Hamas, Hizbullah or other supporters [of terror]. Well done.&#8221; </p></blockquote>
<p>Now since the world is basically ignoring this <strong>OBVIOUS WAR MONGERING ACTION BY IRAN AND HEZBOLLAH LAYING THE GROUND WORK FOR THEIR NEXT WAR &#8211; WE THOUGHT WE WOULD PUT TOGETHER A LITTLE GALLERY FOR YOUR VIEWING PLEASURE (again, these are <strong>not</strong> weapons as the Syrian Foreign Minister explained, these are commercial goods!!!!)</strong></p>

<p><img src="http://www.onejerusalem.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/kalmanovic-300x240.gif" alt="kalmanovic" title="kalmanovic" width="300" height="240" style="float:right;margin:10px" />The car that he was riding in was attacked by a passing vehicle, carrying men with semi-automatic weapons. Kalmanovitch&#8217;s driver, Fyotor Tomnov was also wounded and is currently being hospitalized in critical condition. </p>
<p>Shabtai Kalmanovitch immigrated to Israel in 1972, then a young man. As an agent he had an assignment to get information about Nativ, a Zionist immigration and liaison agency in the former Soviet Union. Moscow had always been suspicious of <a href="http://www.nativ.org/"><strong>Nativ</strong></a>, as an anti-Soviet Union organization. </p>
<p>At one point Kalmonovitch attempted to land a position in the Israeli Prime Minister&#8217;s bureau, during the tenure of Golda Meir. In spite of this he did work for <strong>Samuel Flatto-Sharon</strong> and <strong>Yigal Hurvitz</strong>, a former Knesset member. </p>
<p>Flatto-Sharon and Kalmanovitch had ties with an East German lawyer named Wolfgang Vogel. Vogel was famous for his involvement in the negotiating of a prisoner release of Israeli, Miron Marcus, who was kidnapped by Mozambique rebels, when his plane was forced to make an emergency landing in that country.</p>
<p>The details behind Kalmanovitch&#8217;s murder are still foggy at best. Police suspect that the murder was related to a business dispute between Kalmanovitch and another former agent of the KGB. </p>

The threat, says Hamas spokesman Sami Abu Zuhri, is meant to be a warning to America and Zionists. He said:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;We advise him to &#8230; face the Palestinian people and tell them frankly that the path of negotiations has failed. Halt negotiations with the occupation and take practical steps toward reconciliation.&#8221;
</p></blockquote>
<p><a href="http://www.onejerusalem.com/tag/hamas/">Hamas</a> and Abbas have led rival governments in Gaza and the West Bank for the last two years, after Hamas&#8217;s bloody and violent seizure of the coastal area in 2007.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.onejerusalem.com/tag/mahmoud-abbas/">Abbas</a> cites frustration with the lack of progress in peace negotiations with Israel as his main reason for stepping down. </p>
<p>The Head of the PLO Executive Committee, Yasser Abed Rabbo said on Thursday, that they rejected Abbas&#8217; announcement; and the presidents of Egypt and Israel, the king of Jordan and Israel&#8217;s defense minister all called Abbas on Thursday, urging him to reconsider.</p>
<p>The Palestinian consensus is that West Bank settlements are ruining their dream of independence. Some 500,000 Israelis now live in Samaria and East Jerusalem, which Palestinians claim crucial for building their own independent state.  </p>
<p>The Obama administration has not been able to pressure Israel to halt its construction in the &#8220;West Bank&#8221;. And if the U.S. cannot get Israel to budge on that, they will also fail in other negotiations involving the Golan Heights and East Jerusalem. </p>

On Monday she said that the proposed plan &#8220;falls short of US expectations.&#8221; Israel says that it is willing to limit settlement expansion, while not freezing it altogether. </p>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.hillaryclinton.com/">Clinton</a></strong> said: </p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Successive American administrations of both parties have opposed Israel&#8217;s settlement policy. That is absolutely a fact, and the Obama administration&#8217;s position on settlements is clear, unequivocal and it has not changed. As the president has said on many occasions, the United States does not accept the legitimacy of continued Israeli settlements…I will offer positive reinforcement to either of the parties when I believe they are taking steps that support the objective of reaching a two-state solution,&#8221; she said.
</p></blockquote>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;This offer falls far short of what we would characterize as our position or what our preference would be. But if it is acted upon it will be an unprecedented restriction on settlements and would have a significant and meaningful effect on restraining their growth.&#8221;
</p></blockquote>
<p>Clinton also insisted that the <strong><a href="http://www.palestinefacts.org/pf_1991to_now_pa_origin.php">Palestinian Authority</a></strong> deserved credit for their &#8220;unprecedented&#8221; steps toward improving security in the <strong><a href="https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/geos/we.html">West Bank.</a></strong><br />
After her stop in the Holy Land, Mrs. Clinton continued down the path to Morocco, to speak with Foreign Ministers from several Persian Gulf countries, including Prince Saud al-Faisal of Saudi Arabia.</p>
