VIDEO - HOW CLOSE TO STORED NUCLEAR WEAPONS DO YOU LIVE? - SOME of the 15,600 nuclear weapons in the world are stored WITHIN CITIES or just a few Km away - Unfortunately VIDEO gives too much information regarding location and logistics, which could be misused by JIHADIS

  • Please keep in mind the following:
  • This article does not address the existence of many aging nuclear power plants in Canada, the USA and Europe, which could go into meltdown.  Or the ticking bomb of nuclear waste storage itself. 
  • Image result for images nuclear explosionThrough a flawed agreement Obama has facilitated Iran's development of nuclear weapons, which will have a domino effect in the volatile Middle East. 
  • If Iran has them, so will Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and other tinderbox nations.
  • The USA and Europe are importing millions of migrants from Muslim countries, while the population with European roots is shrinking rapidly
  • Those Middle Eastern and African populations are bound to replace whites in a few decades.
  • Through merit or affirmative action these populations with education and training are already being integrated into high level positions in government, the military, and other areas with access to nuclear materials and nuclear weapons.
  • If you have grandchildren envision for a moment the time when people with known anger management issues will be a majority and rule America and Europe, controlling thousands of nuclear weapons.  That's the future of humankind.
  • Incidentally, you don't have to wait that long for disaster.  Much detailed information on the location and transportation of nukes is given by the VIDEO on this Daily Mail article, saving jihadis a lot of research and effort.
There are no nuclear weapons in the Southern Hemisphere, but the countries in red are the ones where nukes are kept

DAILY MAIL - How close do you live to a NUKE? Fascinating maps and video reveal the exact locations where nuclear bombs are stored

  • Nuclear weapons are stored within a blast range of some major cities 
  • These include London, Glasgow and Brussels in Europe, and Denver and Seattle in the US 
  • Many bombs have been lost or accidentally deployed
  • Many of these were active at the time and could still explode if triggered  
  • The exact locations where nuclear weapons are stored have been pinpointed - and you have probably been closer to one than you may think.

"MODERATE" KING OF JORDAN COVERTLY HELPING ISIS says Jordanian-Palestinian politician and writer in exile Mudar Zahran - Media has reported on Jordan selling thousands of Toyota trucks to ISIS, on government profiting from ISIS oil business, on Jordanians having the highest participation in the ISIS army, and more.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
By Mudar Zahran
Secretary General of the Jordanian Coalition of Opposition, a known Jordanian- Palestinian politician and writer, who now resides in the UK as a political refugee. His writings regularly appear in Arab and other international publications.
 
Some key points on this page: 
  • 4,500 trucks sold by Toyota to the Jordanian government have all ended up in the hands of ISIS
  • Renowned writer and investigative journalist:  A senior Jordanian statesman has received $40 million from ISIS in exchange of supplying it with weapons, fighters and trucks”.
  • The Jordanian government openly does business with ISIS.  A CNN-Arabic report confirmed the Jordanian government, that is, the king,  was one of ISIS black market oil customers along with Turkey.  The Jordanian government is in charge of buying oil from ISIS and selling it to customers. 
  • Jordanians have the highest percentage of soldiers fighting with ISIS.   Many of them come from the king's army and security agencies. 
  • The king of Jordan has ratcheted up its anti-Semitic propaganda against Israel.  Its government has openly called for more stabbings and killings of Jews, echoing ISIS propaganda.
  • The king of Jordan protects the Muslim Brotherhood, which has its global HQ just three miles from the king's palace.  The MB has provided leadership to ISIS
  • The Muslim Brotherhood, by the way, is a favored organization in the White House, with members serving as aides, advisors, and administrators in the US government.   Hillary Clinton's closest assistant, even when she was Secretary of State, has been Huma Abedin, who has family ties to Muslim Brotherhood members and a past job working for a Muslim supremacist publication.  
 
King of Jordan
The image Jordan’s king has established for himself in the US is that of a moderate Westernized ruler.  Even further, after ISIS killed the Jordanian pilot last year, Jordan’s king portrayed himself as a warrior king combating terrorism. 
 
Nonetheless, in the few lines, you will see, with documented evidence, that Jordan’s king has been supporting ISIS, at best, with his recklessness and incompetence, or at worst; he empowers ISIS on purpose for reasons that will be explained here.

ATHEIST SCIENTIST RICHARD DAWKINS DEFENDS CHRISTIANITY after agitating against it for years - He regrets that the vacuum left by Christianity will be filled by SOMETHING MUCH WORSE: ISLAM - Dawkins disparages the left that gives Islam a free pass, no matter how much oppression and violence it inflicts because 'it's their culture' - The hell with their culture, he says.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Caveat:  Although I do not have - and have never had - any religion, I believe in God, an unknowable God.  To me His existence feels real, while it is obvious that religions are in one form or another a human creation.  Somebody heard voices, had a dream, or witnessed an apparition.  And it goes from there.  People confuse God with man-made religion.  And that's the start of a whole set of problems.  But that's my humble opinion. 
 
In the case of Israel, it is the Jewish people's historical land by right.  Even if you take Judaism out of the equation, Muslims are the real occupiers who invaded the land many centuries after Jews had established a Jewish kingdom and a major civilization in Israel.  There was always a Jewish presence in Jerusalem and in the rest of Israel, even as invaders came and went.
 
Religions - man-made and all - are useful because they codify the principles by which a society is to be ruled.  The Ten Commandments for the Jews - Jihad, slaughter of non-Muslims, and raping of women according to the Koran. 

Sometimes tyrants go as far as to declare themselves to be a god, or to be directly guided by god.  It all works to get control the masses more effectively.
 
We must also acknowledge that religious inclination is almost instinctual in human beings.  Wherever there is no religion, people manage to invent one to fill the gap.  Even atheists have a superstition or two, so it's not that they don't believe in the supernatural. 
 
So it's a matter of deciding which set of religious beliefs will cause the least amount of damage to individuals and society. 
 
Militant atheists have been waging an all out war on Christianity, and to a lesser extent on Judaism, because they are easy targets.  Neither Christians nor Jews issue fatwas against those who insult their religion.  It's safe to denigrate both Christianity and Judaism.   So put in very stark terms, those who target those religions while being mostly silent about Islam's depredations are being intellectually dishonest.  
 
Richard Dawkins' buyers' remorse.  But critics of Christianity can now realize that at some point their words have had a deleterious effect on society.  Richard Dawkins is now expressing the equivalent of buyer's remorse.   After denigrating Christianity for years, he is now forced to confront the fact that the expanding cult of Islam is a much greater threat than even the most fanatic sort of Christianity could ever be.  
 
Dawkins
Many people can live righteous and happy lives without believing in God.  But the majority cannot.  Once Christianity and its general moral values are eradicated, we are left with a vacuum that is filled with damaging activities such as different forms of addiction, and a with sense of purposelessness, in addition to the quasi-deification of notions such as moral and cultural relativism. 
 
Devoted Christians too engage in immoral and criminal activities, and can be prone to depression.  But for society in general, Christianity is a safety net available for everyone, and should not be thrown away.  
 
Militant atheism, by the way, does not guarantee that a society will be ruled by reason and compassion.  Take the Soviet Union, China, and North Korea as examples.  The horrors these officially atheist societies have inflicted on individuals and on the environment surpass any sins that Christian capitalism may have perpetrated so far.
 
Nazism also waged war on traditional Christianity, while attempting to obliterate Christianity's roots, the Jews and Judaism, elevating the cult of the German race and their Fuehrer into a religion.  See how depraved civilized people can get once you remove Christian social restraints.
 
Science as religion.  Scientists have an almost religious attitude towards science itself, and they get extremely upset whenever anyone challenges their theories.  They hold scientific doctrine as fact, always forgetting that scientific knowledge is always evolving, and that what was considered "an established fact" 50 years ago, or even 10 years ago, is now being replaced by new - and often contradictory -  "established facts". 
 

This is particularly important in medicine, where much harm is being done in the name of approved medical practice.  Although you will be chastised for daring to challenge a doctor's authority, those practices continue to be revised all the time.  There is no sacredness to science, although scientists would like you to regard it as sacred dogma.
 
Scientists' adherence to scientific doctrine based on political ideology is well known.  Scientists who don't follow the established dogma to the letter are shunned, and deprived of jobs and grants for research.  This is how the dogma is usually maintained.
 
Please read recent ARTICLE about the intelligence gene.  Leftists, who dominate the media and academic institutions, have always insisted that intelligence and race are a social construct.  Now they are being led kicking and screaming to admit that yes, according to the latest research genes and race can determine a person's intelligence.

Professional Atheist Dawkins Says
Christianity ‘Bulwark Against Something Worse’
 
By Thomas D. Williams, Breitbart
 
In a text that is coursing about on social media, professional atheist Richard Dawkins begrudgingly admitted that Christianity may actually be our best defense against aberrant forms of religion that threaten the world.
 
SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA - DECEMBER 04:  Richard Dawkins, founder of the Richard Dawkins Foundation for Reason and Science,promotes his new book at the Seymour Centre on December 4, 2014 in Sydney, Australia.  Richard Dawkins is well known for his criticism of intelligent design.  (Photo by Don Arnold/Getty Images)
“There are no Christians, as far as I know, blowing up buildings,” Dawkins said. “I am not aware of any Christian suicide bombers. I am not aware of any major Christian denomination that believes the penalty for apostasy is death.”
 
In a rare moment of candor, Dawkins reluctantly accepted that the teachings of Jesus Christ do not lead to a world of terror, whereas followers of radical Islam perpetrate the very atrocities that he laments.

    DEAR SENATOR SCHUMER, AND ALL OF YOU AMERICAN JEWS - Stop deceiving yourselves. - It's time you realized that the USA was never your country - The case of growing anti-Semitism in America

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    By Zbigniew Zwgstkstwig
    KEY POINTS
    • Historically speaking, Jews were one of the European founding nations, and have a much older presence in the continent than many other ethnic groups of Europe that today consider themselves indigenous.
    • But no matter how many generations of Jews had lived in Europe, they have always been regarded as outsiders.
    • European Jews gave their love, efforts, and even their lives for their countries, only to be paid with hate and murder, for just being Jews.
    • Some Jews got sick and tired of it and opted for Zionism, a return to the Land of Israel.
    • Other Jews continued to deceive themselves, and thought that America would be the place where they would finally be equal and free.
    • The case of Senator Charles Schumer, accused of dual loyalties, and even treason for disagreeing with president Obama on the still partly secret Iran deal.
    • The growing violent anti-Semitism in the US media and college campuses.
    • Any American Jew with a minimum of lucidity and self-respect should realize that it's only a matter of time before his home country turns fully against him.
    • And the only country that will be willing to take him and his children will be Israel
    • It's also time for American Jewish progressives to start lending more support to Israeli policies that may be politically incorrect but necessary for the survival of the country. 
    Inspired by the one hundredth anniversary of the start of World War I last year, I've been reading several books on that subject, and also on World War II, which was essentially its continuation.
     
    One item that keeps reappearing throughout the first half of the 20th century in Europe is the Jewish obtuse insistence on believing that they were "Europeans" and French, or German, or whichever was the nationality of the country they happened to be living in.
     
    Officially, yes, they had European nationalities.  But to the government and the populations there, they were still seen as outsiders.  No matter how many gains Jews made in civil rights and social status over the years, they were still regarded as outsiders with suspect loyalties.

    BOOK BITS - William L. Shirer's THE NIGHTMARE YEARS - 1930-1940 - The day in 1936 when French and British cowardice made them miss the last chance to stop Hitler and NAZISM without bloodshed, when Hitler remilitarized the Rhineland.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    The Nightmare Years 1930-1940 A book worth re-reading every few years because it holds so many lessons for contemporary politics.  Written in a conversational style, the writer's voice is a delight in contrast to many other heavy volumes on World War II.

    William L. Shirer was a US news correspondent in Berlin during the Nazi years.  He subsequently wrote several highly regarded books on that era.
     
    This Book Bit will focus on two important issues:
     
    1)  The fateful decision made by Britain and France not to stop Hitler's 1936 remilitarization of the Rhineland. 
     
    This reminds us of the West's years of reluctance to stop Iran from developing a nuclear bomb, and the White House severe warnings to Israel not to dare destroy Iran's nuclear sites. 
     
    2)  How the world chose to ignore Hitler's own written plan for the expansion of Germany and the genocide of the Jews and other peoples, while believing in Hitler's speeches where he reassured his adversaries that all he and Germany wanted was "peace".
     
    Reminiscent of today's willful blindness to what Islam really is and pursues - all in black and white on the Koran and the Hadith, and in the documented history of 1300 years of Islamic oppression, enslavement, and conquest - while choosing instead to believe the hoax of Islam as "the religion of peace".

    HOW A DETERMINED WOMAN SAVED A PLANE FULL OF PEOPLE - Just prior to departure she heard wrong engine noises and insisted they'd be checked out - She was laughed at but she was undeterred, and eventually proved right - The malfunction was so severe that the plane was grounded and passengers sent home

    Women's power of intuition is real.  So next time a woman tells you something is wrong, listen to her.  :-)

    Summary:
      EI-UNT-Transaero-Airlines-Boeing-777-200_PlanespottersNet_262405
    • A young Jewish woman boarded a plane at Ben Gurion airport in Israel and was sitting at the window.
    • Moments before takeoff, she realized that something was not right with the wing and heard noises that she believed were not regular noises.
    • She first brought this to the attention of the passengers seated beside her, who in turn laughed it off and said it was just noise from the engines.
    • Undeterred, she persisted, unbuckling her seatbelt and standing up.
    • The flight attendants, who themselves were already seated and buckled in, instructed her to return to her seat.
    • When she told them her concerns about the plane they too laughed at her.
    • Airline officials shouted at her and voiced threats,
    • She insisted that she would not fly on the plane if they didn’t check it out.”
    • Finally they agreed to delay takeoff and investigate her claim.
    • What technicians discovered was a malfunction so severe that the Boeing 767 had to be grounded
    • Passengers were sent home and told to return the following day, but not before they expressed their apologies and thanks to the determined woman who had saved their lives.
    • In the past another premonition saved the life of a prime minister on his way to the airport.

    The woman who saved a plane full of people has been identified.

    ISRAELI ELECTIONS - A HUMOROUS GUIDE FOR THE PERPLEXED

    The following is a chart to further confuse the Muddled East observer.






    Source:  http://elderofziyon.blogspot.co.il/2015/03/2015-israel-voters-guide-funny-and-not.html#.VQe1-co5CM8

    The above blog does not claim this chart to be accurate.  It could never be.  The main candidates are making changes to their platforms even hours before the voting takes place. 
    Thumbnail
    Tzipi Livni of the post-Zionist
     "Zionist Union"

    Labour has made some tactical changes.  And a desperate Bibi Netanyahu has made a radical shift to the right:  No to a Palestinian state on his watch. 

    But if we go by past experience, if Bibi wins he will change his mind again.  And so will other candidates.  To them it is all a game  - a game of power and politics.  The fate of the country is sometimes the last thing on politicians' mind.
    So-called Zionist Union candidates presenting themselves as the leading "Anybody but Bibi" alternative.  The leftist "Zionist Union" has received direct assistance from a strategic team of White House advisers.  Their task:  to unseat Netanyahu for a government more agreeable to president Obama's agenda for Israel.

    In the PREVIOUS election of 2013, a coalition of Likud and Yisrael Beitenu - both parties with an undeserved reputation for being "right wing" - ran with a SECRET PLATFORM.  The reason was that both parties disagreed on certain issues and found it more convenient to run without a platform.  Much easier than define their agenda.  Israelis voted for them anyway! 


    In this election - and in order to confuse and dupe the electorate - the left-wing parties have adopted the name "Zionist Union" although there is nothing Zionist about them.

    One of the components of the Zionist Union is the Labour Party, which used to be Zionist many, many decades ago - during the pioneer years (Ben Gurion, Golda Meir). 

    But new generations of Labour Party members have become what is called "POST-ZIONIST," stressing their eagerness to partition the country along the 1967 lines, de-Judeize Israel, and empower the Arabs. 

    In this election the left-wing Zionist Union has brazenly made use of a White House team of election advisers for the manipulation of the electorate and the mobilization of the Arab vote.  A bipartisan US Congress panel is investigating this White House interference with the Israeli election, possibly financed with taxpayers' money.

    INDEPENDENCE IS THE REAL ELECTION ISSUE

    Will Israel become a banana republic, a puppet of the Obama administration? Or defend its independence?
    By Vic Rosenthal

    Will Israel become a 'Banana republic'?As Israel’s election draws near, there is one issue that is of overriding importance.
     
    No, it is not the question of whether to try to restart negotiations with the Palestinian Authority. And it is not related to the price of apartments, income inequality or any other domestic issue.
     
    It is the question of whether Israel will remain a sovereign, independent state, or whether it will become a satellite of the US, a ‘banana republic’ without an independent foreign policy.

    NEW ISRAELI INNOVATION COULD HELP REDUCE WORLD HUNGER by extending pruduce shelf life by 1500% with a safe and natural product - Much food now goes to waste due to spoilage and disease.

    A cynical mind may wonder at how Israel and Jews in general keep offering inventions and innovations to a world steeped in hatred that dreams of - and even plans - their extermination.  
     
    People with roots in poor areas of Asia and Africa are terrorizing and murdering Jews in Europe and other places.
     
    A sad reminder of this pervasive hatred is the United Nations itself, filled with members whose main agenda seems to be to condemn Israel and to call for boycotts of that country.
      
    People avail themselves from a very long list of inventions and innovations by Jewish scientists in the fields of communications by publishing articles against Israel and the Jews.

    In the meantime they have no problem having their lives and those of their loved ones saved by Jewish medical technology - so that they can live longer to demonize Israel.
     
    This article presents an Israeli innovation that could help more people survive and live better lives with greater availability of food, so that they can turn around and attack Israel. 

    No good deed goes unpunished.  

    But a Jewish tenet mandates Jews to make the world better: 
    Tikkun olam is a basic tenet of Judaism.  It's a Hebrew phrase that means "repairing the world" (or "healing the world") which suggests humanity's shared responsibility to heal, repair and transform the world. (Wikipedia)

    Could an Israeli-created innovation end world hunger?

    Pimi Agro has figured out a natural way to extend the shelf life of produce by 1,500%, and prevent disease and fungus, too

    A haredi youth stands next to piles of potatoes in Jerusalem (Photo credit: Matanya Tausig/Flash90)Between a third and half of the food grown today never makes it to market.   Produce of all kinds is “lost” to spoilage and disease, due mostly to transportation, storage, and other logistics issues.
     
    As a result, hundreds of millions of people still go hungry – but they don’t have to, thanks to an invention by Israel’s Pimi Agro.

    RUSSIA TO BUILD TWO MORE NUCLEAR REACTORS FOR IRAN, while the White House enables Iran to build centrifuges and sells $11 BILLION in weapons to Qatar, a country said to be arming and financing ISIS and Hamas - But the US and the world demand Israel's partition "to bring peace" to the region.

    A particularly sensitive is Iran’s ability to enrich uranium, which Tehran argues is needed to power Bushehr but Israel and Western powers fear will be used to make an atomic bomb.
     
    Moscow nuclear agency confirms deal to construct 1,000 megawatt plants, driving number of facilities to eight.  Russia signed a deal with Iran to build two new nuclear reactors and agreed to expand the total number of Russian reactors in the country to eight, the state nuclear agency Rosatom said.  

    A series of agreements, signed during a visit to Moscow by Iran’s nuclear program chief Ali Akbar Salehi, includes a contract for two new reactors at the existing Russia-built Bushehr plant.

    PROOF OF THE EXODUS? - EGYPTIANS DISCOVER REMAINS OF ANCIENT EGYPTIAN ARMY AT THE BOTTOM OF THE GULF OF SUEZ - Egyptian archaeologist thinks this may be the same army mentioned in the Bible's Exodus

    Suez| Egypt’s Antiquities Ministry announced last October that a team of underwater archaeologists had discovered that remains of a large Egyptian army from the 14th century BC, at the bottom of the Gulf of Suez, 1.5 kilometers offshore from the modern city of Ras Gharib.
     
    For centuries, the famous biblical account of the “Red Sea Crossing” was dismissed by most scholars and historians as more symbolic than historical.
     
    Moses1The team was searching for the remains of ancient ships and artefacts related to Stone Age and Bronze Age trade in the Red Sea area, when they stumbled upon a gigantic mass of human bones darkened by age.
     
    The scientists lead by Professor Abdel Muhammad Gader and associated with Cairo University’s Faculty of Archaeology, have already recovered a total of more than 400 different skeletons, as well as hundreds of weapons and pieces of armor, also the remains of two war chariots, scattered over an area of approximately 200 square meters.
     
    They estimate that more than 5000 other bodies could be dispersed over a wider area, suggesting that an army of large size who have perished on the site.

    This magnificient blade from an egyptian khopesh, was certainly the weapon of an important character. It was discovered near the remains of a richly decorated war chariot, suggesting it could have belonged to a prince or nobleman.

    Many clues on the site have brought Professor Gader and his team to conclude that the bodies could be linked to the famous episode of the Exodus.

    THE WHITE HOUSE USES ISIS TO DEFLECT ATTENTION AWAY FROM IRAN whose nuclear program, aided by US appeasement policies, is a much greater threat - In the meantime IRAN CONTINUES TO GAIN GROUND, now in Yemen

    The White House is manipulating media attention away from its policies that support Iran's nuclear weapons development. 

    A few voices have raised the alarm that the White House sudden interest in ISIS (or IS) is nothing but a means to distract attention away from its policies that favor Iran's nuclear program.

    The US government quietly helps Iran through easing of sanctions, and a protracted series of "talks" leading nowhere, that give Iran more time to reach the point of no-return towards its nuclear goal. 

    In the big picture, Iran is immeasurably more dangerous than ISIS.  

    Power groups come and go in the Middle East, but a nuclear Iran represents a catastrophic threat to the Middle East and the whole world. 

    And let's not forget that Iran is prone to severe earthquakes, which could do damage to nuclear installations.

    The powerful United States military could stop ISIS if it wanted to. But the White House chooses not to.

    As long as ISIS is capturing the front pages, the US government can quietly continue to ENABLE Iran to carry out its goal of becoming a nuclear power. 
     
    To begin with, it would unleash a nuclear arms race in the area. Several Arab countries, such as Saudi Arabia and Egypt, are already making plans to the acquisition of nuclear reactors "for peaceful purposes," which is the first step towards the development of nuclear weapons. 

    The White House also continues pushing its Two-States Final Solution for Israel, in spite of all evidence demonstrating that once Palestinians gain control of territory - as they did in Gaza - they don't stop there, but use it to terrorize Israel.

    Gaza is not a state yet, and so their military and diplomatic capabilities are very limited.  But imagine what it would be like once Palestine becomes an independent state.
     
    Israel's defensive options would be drastically reduced.  The Islamic State of Palestine would have additional powerful allies that would come to their defense. 
     
    We can already hear the White House sternly warning Israel that no matter how much terror the Arabs inflict against Israelis, Israel must restrain its response lest it ignites a region-wide conflict. 
     
    Israel could not cope with a protracted war of attrition by "militants" hiding behind women and children.  They would dig tunnels all along the border and drive Israelis away from their homes, and eventually from Israel itself.   Many Israeli families living along the Gaza border have already fled, not to return. 

    Israel is a tiny country.  Where would Israelis go if attacked along their northern, southern and eastern borders, and their military is restrained by the US government?

    Just recently the White House forced Israel into a premature cease fire with Gaza that left many terror tunnels in place.
     
    Furthermore, how could the state protect Israelis if there is a Palestinian land corridor splitting the country in two, as envisioned by the White House, as part of their Two State Final Solution?
     
    What sense would there be for Israel's existence if Jews lose their very heart, Jerusalem, to the descendants of Arab conquerors and occupiers?
     
    The following is an analysis of how Iran is quietly advancing in the Middle East - with the White House tacit assistance. 
     
    Questionable White House Middle East policies and allies. 
     
    (Avi Issacharoff's column follows next.) 
    • While the media focuses almost obsessively on the maps of IS’s takeover, “moderate” Iran is gaining control over even larger chunks of territory: Lebanon, parts of Syria and Iraq, and now Yemen.
    • The Saudis knows that the Iranians have transferred weapons to the Yemen Houthi rebels.
    • Iranian Revolutionary Guards forces were caught by the Yemeni army during the fighting.
    • The Saudis are worried that the new Iranian expedition will try to produce unrest in their own Shi’ite areas.
    • Next month, six months of talks over the Iranian nuclear program will end, likely without a major breakthrough. But even without nuclear weapons, it looks like the Iranians are doing just fine. 
    • How is it possible that even the mighty air power of several armies, led by the US, cannot defeat IS?  The answer, it seems, lies in the tactical level.  IS has changed tactics.  They are evolving, like a virus.
    • IS has changed the way in which they move around, and even in the way they dress, no longer with their distinctive black outfits.
    • With no boots on the ground, the US is flying blind. 
    • In order to create targets, intelligence is needed. And without the presence of intelligence personnel and special forces on the ground, there is not sufficient information, it turns out, to stop the advance of IS.
    • Hard to believe, but the US administration has chosen Turkey and Qatar as closest allies in the Middle East - both of whom support and finance jihadists, including IS.
    • Turkey has even gone to the extent of bombing Kurds, who are the only reliable military force in the region capable of fighting IS.
    • The US has denied weapons to the Kurds and restricted weapons sales to Israel, but sold $11 billion worth of weapons to Qatar, which arms jihadists, including Hamas.

    While the world watches IS,
     Iran quietly advances.



    By Avi Issacharoff

    ‘Moderate’ Tehran is gaining control over larger chunks of territory — Lebanon, parts of Syria and Iraq, and now Yemen, where a vital Israeli sea route is now threatened.
      
    While the entire world follows breathlessly the battles between Kurdish forces and the Islamic State in Kobani, the Syrian city on the border between Turkey and Syria, Iran is slowly completing an impressive takeover of Yemen.
