Israel belongs to the Jews according to the Koran http://www.israelvideonetwork.com/this-speech-in-arabic-in-israels-knesset-really-caught-all-the-arab-mks-off-guard/ Just Keep Silent  Sometimes we know that saying something will make a situation worse. We can tell ourselves to, "Just keep silent." If we feel tempted to speak negatively about someone, we can strengthen our resolve not to say it by telling ourselves, "Just keep silent." The more difficult it is to keep silent, the greater the resulting spiritual elevation. When you tell yourself, "Just keep silent," your silence isn't just a passive state of being. Rather, it is an act of remaining silent. In Tehillim (Psalms 34), King David tells us: "Who is the person who wants life and loves days that he may see good? Guard your tongue from evil and your lips from speaking deceit." Remaining silent instead of speaking against others enhances and lengthens life. It is of course easier to preach this than to practice it. I sat next to a woman yesterday who took up my seat as well as hers and she told me that I wasn't nice because she didn't have room.But I kept my mouth shut.

Photo: Uriah Tadmor (JNi.media) The City of David excavations of the Jerusalem Hebrew University on Mount Ophel, at the foot of the southern wall of the Temple Mount compound, have yielded a sensational discovery: a seal (bulla) with the name of King Hezekiah (727-698 BCE). This external evidence further establishes the veracity of the biblical account of the nation of Israel's empires going back some 3,000 years. The seal is oval, with the dimensions of 8.6 by 9.7 mm, impressed on soft clay (Bulla) of 12 by 13 mm, about three millimeters thick. The bulla was used originally to sign a document written on papyrus and kept rolled and tied with thin twine whose subtle marks can be seen on the back of the bulla. The seal was discovered along with many pottery shards and various figurines and seals. King Hezekiah's bulla was discovered in a garbage heap that was dumped during or shortly after Hezekiah's time, from a royal building that was used to store food. This building is part of a series of buildings, including a gate and towers, which were built in the second half of the tenth century BCE (the time of King Solomon), as part of the Ophel fortifications of the new government complex that connected the city of David with the Temple Mount. Another imprinted 33 seals were unearthed along with the bulla, some of them bearing Hebrew names, marked in their backs by coarse canvas and thick wires, which apparently were used to seal sacks containing food products. Each seal is surrounded by a sunken border left by the seal's frame. The Hezekiah seal bears the inscription: "Hezekiah (son) Ahaz King of Judea," with an emblem of the sun emblem with tilted down wings and two icons of the Ankh (symbol of life). According to Dr. Eilat Mazar, "despite the fact that seals bearing Hezekiah's name have been seen on the antiques market since the 1990s, some with the symbol of a winged scarab (dung beetle) and some with a winged sun symbol, this is the first time that a seal of a King of Israel or Judea was found in a scientific archaeological excavation." The discovery of a royal seal at the Ophel archaeological excavations brings to life in a direct way the biblical stories about King Hezekiah and the national affairs that took place in his days in the Royal Borough of Jerusalem. The seal was discovered via a process of wet sifting of the layers of soil from the excavation, which was conducted at the sifting facility at Tsurim Valley, run by Dr. Gabi Barkai and Tzachi Dvira and sponsored by the Israel Nature and Parks Authority and the City of David Fund. The seal was found by Efrat Greenwald, a member of the Ophel team who was responsible for screening the excavation soil. Reut Ben-Arie, who prepared the Hebrew bullas from the Ophel excavations, was first to recognize that the seal belonged to King Hezekiah. Weizmann Institute Study: Blood Sugar Levels in Response to Foods Are Highly Individual Photo Credit: cellvideoabstracts (JNi.media) Which is more likely to raise blood sugar levels: sushi or ice cream? According to a Weizmann Institute study reported in the November 19 issue of the journal Cell, the answer varies from one person to another. The study, which continuously monitored blood sugar levels in 800 people for a week, revealed that the bodily response to all foods was highly individual. The study, called the Personalized Nutrition Project (www.personalnutrition.org), was conducted by the groups of Prof. Eran Segal of the Computer Science and Applied Mathematics Department and Dr. Eran Elinav of the Immunology Department. Segal said: "We chose to focus on blood sugar because elevated levels are a major risk factor for diabetes, obesity and metabolic syndrome. The huge differences that we found in the rise of blood sugar levels among different people who consumed identical meals highlights why personalized eating choices are more likely to help people stay healthy than universal dietary advice." Indeed, the scientists found that different people responded very differently to both simple and to complex meals. For example, a large number of the participants' blood sugar levels rose sharply after they consumed a standardized glucose meal, but in many others, blood glucose levels rose sharply after they ate white bread, but not after glucose. Elinav: "Our aim in this study was to find factors that underlie personalized blood glucose responses to food. We used that information to develop personal dietary recommendations that can help prevent and treat obesity and diabetes, which are among the most severe epidemics in human history." David Zeevi and Tal Korem, PhD students in Segal's lab, led the study. They collaborated with Dr. Niv Zmora, a physician conducting PhD studies in Elinav's lab, and with PhD student Daphna Rothschild and research associate Dr. Adina Weinberger from Segal's lab. The study was unique in its scale and in the inclusion of the analysis of gut microbes, collectively known as the microbiome, which had recently been shown to play an important role in human health and disease. Study participants were outfitted with small monitors that continuously measured their blood sugar levels. They were asked to record everything they ate, as well as such lifestyle factors as sleep and physical activity. Overall, the researchers assessed the response of different people to more than 46,000 meals. Taking these multiple factors into account, the scientists generated an algorithm for predicting individualized response to food based on the person's lifestyle, medical background, and the composition and function of his or her microbiome. In a follow-up study of another 100 volunteers, the algorithm successfully predicted the rise in blood sugar in response to different foods, demonstrating that it could be applied to new participants. The scientists were able to show that lifestyle also mattered. The same food affected blood sugar levels differently in the same person, depending, for example, on whether its consumption had been preceded by exercise or sleep. In the final stage of the study, the scientists designed a dietary intervention based on their algorithm; this was a test of their ability to prescribe personal dietary recommendations for lowering blood glucose level responses to food. Volunteers were assigned a personalized "good" diet for one week, and a "bad" diet – also personalized – for another. Both good and bad diets were designed to have the same number of calories, but they differed between participants. Thus, certain foods in one person's "good" diet were part of another's "bad" diet. The "good" diets indeed helped to keep blood sugar at steadily healthy levels, whereas the "bad" diets often induced spikes in glucose levels —all within just one week of intervention. Moreover, as a result of the "good" diets, the volunteers experienced consistent changes in the composition of their gut microbes, suggesting that the microbiome may be influenced by the personalized diets while also playing a role in participants' blood sugar responses. The scientists are currently enrolling Israeli volunteers for a longer-term follow-up dietary intervention study that will focus on people with consistently high blood sugar levels, who are at risk of developing diabetes, with the aim of preventing or delaying this disease. To learn more, please visit www.personalnutrition.org. Strikingly different responses to identical foods. In study participant 445 (top), blood sugar levels rose sharply after eating bananas but not after cookies of the same amount of calories. The opposite occurred in participant 644 (bottom).

You choose what messages are broadcast. A standard radio offers limited programs; your mind offers unlimited choices. You have the ability to decide what mental channel you want to listen to right now. Think about the worthwhile mental channels from which you can choose. You can create new ones at any moment you wish. When you aren't satisfied with the channel you are listening to, just choose a mental channel that is worth choosing.

By: Hana Levi Julian Published: November 30th, 2015 View of the neighborhood of Ras al-Amud in the Shiloah (Silwan) section of Jerusalem. (file) Photo Credit: Miriam Alster / Flash 90 A clash between IDF soldiers and rioting Arabs in the Shiloah (Silwan) section of Jerusalem Sunday night has led to another round of Arab media incitement and an attempt to launch a "day of rage" on Monday. IDF soldiers opened fire Sunday night when they determined they faced a life-threatening situation when an Arab riot spun out of control in the Ras el-Amud neighborhood. The soldiers came under attack from the masked Arabs and others who threw some 10 firebombs (Molotov cocktails) at the force. Mob control measures were used to disperse the rioters. When the force felt their lives were endangered, the soldiers said they fired at the lower limbs of one of the rioters who threw a firebomb and then disappeared. No hits were confirmed, but reportedly one Arab teen was shot. The Bethlehem-based Ma'an news agency quoted the "Wadi Hilweh Information Center" on Monday as saying that "Israeli forces on Sunday evening shot dead a Palestinian teenage boy during clashes in the neighborhood of Silwan in occupied East Jerusalem." The news agency, which serves as a mouthpiece for the Palestinian Authority, reported that 17-year-old Ayman Samih al-Abbasi died "after he was shot in his chest… Israeli forces subsequently stormed the local Ein al-Lozeh medical center searching for the boy's body but were reportedly unable to find it, the information center said." The Arab news agency quoted the "center" as saying that "Israeli police held medical staff inside the center and prevented them from leaving." Ma'an apparently also felt compelled to add – in the interests of accuracy, and possibly in order to avoid having its Israeli GPO (government press office) credentials revoked – that Abbasi had "previously spent 18 months in Israeli jails and a further 10 months under house arrest, the information center added." In addition, the Arab news agency noted the "circumstances in which he was killed were initially unclear, with locals saying that the Ras al-Amoud area was mostly calm before he was shot dead… Israeli police spokesperson Micky Rosenfeld said that Israeli police had been carrying out patrols in the area when Palestinians threw '10 petrol bombs' at them.' Rosenfeld was unable to confirm for the agency that forces had subsequently opened fire on the attackers but said police officers were still in the area. The police spokesperson's account was backed up by Jawad Siyam, directed of the "information center," who agreed that it had been "quiet" in Silwan before the incident. Following the clash, Ma'an reported that unnamed Arab "groups" allegedly have now called for a "day of rage" on Monday. Mahmoud Abbas: Murdering Israelis is "popular peaceful uprising" PMW Bulletin Dec. 1, 2015 Mahmoud Abbas: Murdering Israelis is "popular peaceful uprising" http://www.palwatch.org/main.aspx?fi=157&doc_id=16437 Itamar Marcus and Nan Jacques Zilberdik p:+972 2 625 4140 e: pmw@palwatch.org f: +972 2 624 2803 w: www.palwatch.org A statement by PA Chairman Abbas explains why he has not yet condemned even one of the 22 murders of Israelis during the past two months of terror, even though he tells the international community he is against terror. Referring to the current Palestinian terror uprising, which at the time of Abbas' statement had already murdered 14 Israelis and wounded 167 in 65 stabbings and 8 shootings, Abbas announced on PA TV that it is a "peaceful uprising." [Figures from http://mfa.gov.il] Abbas: "No one called for this uprising and no one asked for it. It stemmed from the hearts of the young... We said to everyone that we want peaceful popular uprising, and that's what this is. That's what this is. However, the aggression of firing bullets has come from the Israelis." [Official PA TV, Nov. 16, 2015] According to Abbas, when Palestinians kill young Israeli parents in front of their children, kill Israeli teens, or kill Israeli fathers with their sons, it is not to be condemned as terror because it is an expression of "peace." And therefore, when Israelis kill the stabbers and shooters who are trying to peacefully kill Israelis - it is the Israelis who are the "aggressors." Significantly, Abbas openly admitted that he called "to everyone" for this violence: "We said to everyone that we want peaceful popular uprising, and that's what this is. That's what this is." Click to view http://www.palwatch.org/main.aspx?fi=709&fld_id=709&doc_id=16415 Since this public expression of support by Abbas for this terror, another 8 Israelis have been murdered, 48 have been wounded, and there have been 43 additional attempted murders. One of the many PA calls to Palestinians to participate in this so-called "peaceful uprising" that Abbas might have been referring to was his Sept. 16, 2015 speech "blessing the blood" spilled fighting to prevent Jews from "defiling" the Al-Aqsa Mosque with "their filthy feet" when going to the Temple Mount. This "defiling of an Islamic holy site" was the excuse used by the PA as trigger for this current terror campaign. "We bless every drop of blood that has been spilled for Jerusalem, which is clean and pure blood, blood spilled for Allah, Allah willing. Every Martyr (Shahid) will reach Paradise, and everyone wounded will be rewarded by Allah... The Al-Aqsa [Mosque] is ours and they have no right to defile it with their filthy feet. We will not allow them to, and we will do everything in our power to protect Jerusalem." [Official PA TV, Sept. 16, 2015 and official website of PA Chairman Abbas, Sept. 16, 2015] This justification of murder by Abbas may also explain why PLO Executive Committee member Mahmoud Ismail said that the murder of Eitan and Naama Henkin in front of their four children was fulfilling Palestinian "national duty." During this two month period of daily terror attacks by Palestinians against Israelis, Abbas has not condemned even one attack. However, he has made a point of condemning the recent murder of French, Russian, Lebanese, and Jordanian civilians as victims of terror. The following are excerpts ofhis statement of condemnation, published on Nov. 15, 2015: French: "President Mahmoud Abbas strongly condemns the terror operations that took place in Paris... he expressed 'our absolute condemnation and disapproval of these heinous acts'..." (i.e., 7 simultaneous attacks in which an estimated 129 people were murdered.) Russians: "The president [Abbas] stated: 'We convey our condolences to our friend the Russian people for the sad event that happened to the Russian plane...This is a painful, criminal incident..." (i.e., the blowing up of a Russian plane that killed all 224 passengers.) Lebanese: 'We convey our condolences to [our] brother, the people of Lebanon for the explosion in the Dehiyeh district of Beirut." (i.e., double suicide bombing that killed over 40.) Jordanians: "We do not forget to convey our condolences to our brothers in Jordan as well, for what happened there." (i.e., attack in Amman in which 5 people were shot dead.) Abbas ended with a general statement: "We condemn all forms of terror, and always stand against it." [Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, Nov. 15, 2015] But Abbas forgot to add: Unless the victims are Israelis and the terrorists are Palestinians. Then murder is "peaceful." The following are longer excerpts of Abbas' statements: Official PA TV News broadcast Excerpt from PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas' speech at the Palestine Prize ceremony PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas: "No one called for this uprising (i.e., Oct. - Nov. 2015 terror campaign) and no one asked for it. It stemmed from the hearts of the young who have seen everything with their own eyes. They have seen the oppression, the settlements and they have seen the attacks by the herds of settlers, and therefore they have done what they have done (i.e., 14 killed by stabbings and shootings). We said to everyone that we want peaceful popular uprising, and that's what this is. That's what this is. However, the aggression of firing bullets has come from the Israelis." [Official PA TV, Nov. 16, 2015] What Abbas called "peaceful popular uprising" had at that time already included: - 65 stabbings - 8 shootings - 8 car rammings Total killed: 14 Total wounded: 167 [Between Oct. 1 - Nov. 13, 2015, Source: "Wave of terror October-November 2015," http://mfa.gov.il] Headline: "The President [Abbas] condemns terror operations in Paris and expresses condolences to [President of France] Hollande" "The Presidential Office made a statement that 'President Mahmoud Abbas strongly condemns the terror operations that took place in Paris,' and that he 'expressed solidarity and sympathy with the French government and people against terror.' ... The president sent a condolence telegram to his French colleague [President] François Hollande for the victims of the terror attacks. In the telegram... he expressed 'our absolute condemnation and disapproval of these heinous acts that are in contradiction to every human value, convention and law.' He emphasized 'our sincere sympathy and solidarity, our support for President Hollande and the families of the victims in the face of the dark terror.'... The president stated: 'We convey our condolences to [our] friend the Russian people for the sad event that happened to the Russian plane...This is a painful, criminal incident." ... 'We convey our condolences to [our] brother, the people of Lebanon for the explosion in the Dehiyeh district of Beirut, the capital of Lebanon, last Thursday [Nov. 12, 2015].' (i.e., double suicide bombing that killed over 40.) The president stated: 'We do not forget to convey our condolences to our brothers in Jordan as well, for what happened there recently, which also has characteristics of terrorism' (i.e., attack in Amman in which 5 people were shot dead.) He added: 'We cannot approve of these incidents, and we strongly condemn them. We hope that the region will dispose of terror and terrorists, and that all the peoples of the world and all countries will work together to combat terror everywhere, because it has no religion, homeland or affiliation. Therefore, we condemn all forms of terror, and always stand against it.'" [Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, Nov. 15, 2015] Paris attacks 2015 - On Nov. 13, 2015, seven terrorist attacks were carried out simultaneously in Paris, France, in which it is estimated that 129 people were murdered. An additional 352 people were wounded, 99 of them in serious condition. The most massive attack took place at the Bataclam Theater during a rock concert, where 87 people were murdered. On Nov. 14, 2015 ISIS claimed responsibility for these attacks. Russian plane attack 2015 - On Oct. 31, 2015, a Russian plane was blown up over Sinai, Egypt. All 224 people on board were killed. ISIS claimed responsibility for the terror attack. Amman shooting attack 2015 - On Nov. 9, 2015, 29-year-old Anwar Bani Abdu, a Jordanian police officer at an international police training facility in Al-Muwaqqar, near Amman, Jordan, shot dead 2 Americans, 2 Jordanians and a South African, and injured 6 others, before he was shot and killed by fellow policemen during a shootout. Investigations carried out by the Jordanian government have confirmed that the attacker was not affiliated with any terrorist groups but rather the attack was a result of the attacker's financial situation and psychological state. Beirut bombings 2015 - On Nov. 12, 2015, two terrorists carried out suicide bombing attacks at an interval of 7 minutes, in the Bourj el-Barajneh district of Beirut which is inhabited mostly by Shia Muslims and controlled by Hezbollah. More than 40 people were killed and over 240 were wounded in the attacks. The Islamic State terror organization took responsibility for the attacks. ________________________________________ IMRA - Independent Media Review and Analysis Since 1992 providing news and analysis on the Middle East with a focus on Arab-Israeli relations Ban Ki-Moon Condemns Terror around the World – Except in Israel  The U.N. chief declared a moment of silence for terror victims on and then checked off the cities hit by terror - except for Jerusalem and Tel Aviv. By: Tzvi Ben-Gedalyahu Published: November 30th, 2015 UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon at Paris climate conference Photo Credit: YouTube screenshot / https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z8Quh64ssnc The Paris climate conference opened on Sunday with a moment of silence for the world's recent victims and a solemn recital of cities where radical Islamists have murdered people, with the blatant omission of Tel Aviv and Jerusalem. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, who draws a line connecting global warming and terrorism, ticked off the names of cities, including: Paris; Tunis; Beirut, and Bamako, Mali. notably And what about Jerusalem and Tel Aviv? Apparently Jews murdered there are not terror victims, according to Ban. He and other Western leaders have tried to manufacture a link between the "occupation" and the Arab "resistance" movement that encourages the murder of Jews. Or, the world is so used to them that it not worth mentioning, except in the London Daily Mail. The British tabloid not only headlined violence in Jerusalem, but also let readers think that the Arabs are the victims Honest Reporting noted that the newspaper's headline appeared as: The conference in Paris is ostensibly over the climate, but Western leaders are running over each other for headlines to show their concern over the Paris massacres by Islamic State (ISIS) terrorists. President Barack Obama and Canadian Prime Justin Trudeau hurried over to the Bataclan Theatre to pay their tribute to victims of the Islamic State (ISIS) massacre there two weeks ago. The conference will likely conclude with pontifical agreements on "global warming" without much follow through, but an agreement on an international effort to fight radical Islam is not in the cards. In fact, Ban Ki-moon is afraid that the war against terror will "overshadow" the war against "global warming." Ban Ki-moon has adopted the line that one way to fight terror is to keep the temperature from rising one degree, because, so the theory goes, droughts cause famine and that is what causes Muslims to murder people in Paris and Jerusalem. In his words, in an interview with Canada's CBC: When we do not address climate change properly it may also affect many people who are frustrated and who are impacted, then there is some possibility that these young people who [are] jobless and frustrated may join these foreign terrorist fighters. There is a concern whether it may overshadow the climate change agreement and I think we have to move on this climate change agreement.

Yehudah Glick: The Time Has Come for Israel to Stop Apologizing Over the Temple Mount "For Zion's sake I will not keep silent, and for Jerusalem's sake I will not be quiet, until her righteousness goes forth as brightness, and her salvation as a burning torch." (Isaiah 62:1) image: https://www.breakingisraelnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/temple-mount-jerusalem.jpg (Photo: Hillel Maeir/ Tazpit News Agency) The Temple Mount is the "number one Jewish venue" and Israeli politicians need to stop apologizing for it, said Temple Mount Heritage Foundation founder Rabbi Yehudah Glick in agreement with comments made by Israeli officials last week. During last week's Jerusalem Post Diplomatic Conference, when asked about the Israeli-Palestinian peace process, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu explained that one of his unshakable "solid principles" is that "the Palestinians will have to finally recognize the Jewish state." "They cannot ask for a nation-state for themselves and not accord one to us. After all, we've only been here about 4,000 years. We have some connection to this land, to this city [of Jerusalem]," he said to applause. "Four-hundred yards from here is David's City and an equal distance the Temple Mount. It's named the Temple Mount because on this mount was a temple, the place where Abraham first visited and Solomon built the Temple and Jesus overturned the money tables, the money changers table, on that Temple," the prime minister explained. "All of this from Solomon's time to the rise of Islam and preceded Islam by 1,500 years. We have some connection, modest, to this land, to this city, to this mount. And yet we recognize that there is another people here and were willing to forge a peace." In response to the prime minister, Glick, whose known internationally for his work in opening up access to the Temple Mount for people of all religions, said to Breaking Israel News, "I'm very happy that Netanyahu, in front of all the diplomatic representatives in Israel from all over the world, said it loud and clear, without apologizing for anything." "While talking with [US Secretary of State] Kerry and [Jordan's] King Abdullah, Netanyahu repeated again and again the status quo and political arrangements. But we didn't hear loud and clear a statement about the fact that the place of the Temple Mount has in Jewish life." image: https://www.breakingisraelnews.com/wp-content/uploads/useful_banner_manager_banners/226-BIN-TempleMountPray-Calm-J-600WIDE.jpg When asked whether the prime minister's comments are a way to counter Palestinian attempts to change the narrative and history of the Temple Mount, Glick told Breaking Israel News, "It definitely is because the Palestinians are not afraid to say again and again that this is a Muslim place and only Muslims have a right to come here, that Jews have no right to the place." While Glick waxed poetic about the prime minister, he offered some harsh truths to opposition leader Issac Herzog who warned Jewish presence on the holy site will only continue to feed the flames of tension between Israel and the Palestinians. Ahead of the conference, Herzog called out Temple Mount activists in an interview with The Jerusalem Post, saying that those who encourage others to visit the Temple Mount are "hypocritical" because "even the strictest Zionist yeshiva oppose it." "As leaders, we have to prevent actions that can have consequences we don't understand," Herzog said, citing a ruling by his grandfather, former chief Rabbi Yitzchak Halevi Herzog. Following the War of Independence in 1948, Rabbi Herzog instructed soldiers who ascended the mount to quickly leave and "lock the place up and throw away the key." image: https://www.breakingisraelnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/yg.jpg Rabbi Yehudah Glick. (Photo: TMHF) In response, Glick told Breaking Israel News, "It was unfortunate to hear that Herzog starts teaching us rabbinical law, playing the rabbi. When was the last time he followed rabbinical authority? Suddenly here, when it comes to the Temple Mount, he finds himself in the footsteps of rabbinical authorities." "There are more than 300 rabbis who support ascending to the Temple Mount, the majority of them modern-orthodox Zionist rabbinical authority. The majority of the rabbis who are against ascending to the Temple Mount are the same as the majority of the rabbis who were against immigrating to Israel at the end of the 19th century and beginning of the 20th. I don't think it was wise on Herzog's side to get himself involved in a legitimate rabbinical dispute." While Glick may not agree with Herzog's views on whether Jews should be allowed to ascend the Temple Mount, he did praise the opposition leader for his acknowledgement of the holy status of the site for the Jewish nation. "It's very refreshing to hear the unanimous agreement between Prime Minister Netanyahu and the opposition leader Herzog on the fact that the Temple Mount is the most holy place in the world for the Jewish people," he said to Breaking Israel News. "It was very important that the prime minister of Israel, together with the head of the opposition, both said without apologizing that the Temple Mount is the number one Jewish venue."

The Fabulous Mount of Olives

Rabbi Yehuda Lave Advance Your Thinking "How do I change the focus of my brain?" is a common question that people ask. "I tend to think of the negative. I worry a lot. My brain focuses way too much on thoughts that aren't conducive to happiness. How can I stop thinking about what I don't want to think about?" A powerful tool that will help your brain move to the type of thoughts that you wish for is to tell it: "NEXT!" Then your brain will joyfully move on to another picture, idea, song, series of words, thoughts, imaginary scenes, visualizations, and anything else that brains like to do. Your brain can choose from an enormous amount of material that it already has stored in its immense library.

Anti-Israel Events Skyrocketing on U.S.. Campuses Universities were themselves complicit in the events. 11.23.2015 Mark Tapson The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) released a new report last week showing a significant increase in anti-Israel activity on American university campuses over the 2014-2015 academic year. According to Arutz Sheva News, no fewer than 150 explicitly anti-Israel events were held in the fall of this year alone - a marked increase from 105 such events in the same period last year. Universities were themselves complicit in the anti-Israel events, reports Arutz Sheva: at least 15 of the events were sponsored or co-sponsored by universities such as UC Berkley, Drew University, and John Jay College of Criminal Justice. At least 10% of the events were co-sponsored by student groups whose primary missions do not include a focus on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Jonathan A. Greenblatt, the CEO of ADL, says: "Student groups at a number of campuses are sponsoring a range of programs and initiatives designed with one goal: to isolate, defame and delegitimize Israel. Many of these efforts have resulted in increased tension between students and have fostered a hostile atmosphere for pro-Israel and Jewish students. We are particularly concerned by the support these initiatives have received from faculty members." "The tactics employed by the BDS movement - along with the continued efforts by anti-Israel student groups seeking to stifle discourse about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and Israel in general through disruption and defamation - is a deeply troubling phenomenon that has contributed to an atmosphere at some institutions where Jewish and pro-Israel students feel uncomfortable voicing their views or even asserting their Jewish identity." Greenblatt also noted that "BDS is not an effort designed to engender a peaceful resolution of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. It does not seek to achieve a two-state solution that benefits all parties. Instead, it seeks to undermine the Jewish State of Israel. It's an agenda of anti-normalization that demonizes Israel and its citizens simply because of their identity." "This is the antithesis of constructive dialogue that the university should embody. In practice, the BDS movement's indiscriminate targeting of individuals based solely on their national origin and irrespective of views or actions is inherently anti-Semitic. While most incidents of anti-Semitism on campus are not generated by BDS, anti-Israel activity can often cross the line to anti-Semitism or foster an atmosphere in which anti-Semitic stereotypes are tolerated." We are in lots and lots of trouble 100,000 Refugees to Arrive in 180 American Cities Roughly 180 cities nationwide will receive a minimum of 10, 000 "Syrian refugees," who are mostly neither Syrian nor refugees, and not "properly vetted." Additionally, ten thousand is a misleading number—as it excludes an additional eight people each refugee is allowed to bring. In this way, ten thousand actually translates to 90,000. The U.S. Refugee Public Affiliate Directory (published by ZeroHedge) lists the 180 cities in 48 states where refugees will be sent—thanks largely to Catholic Charities and a few other organizations receiving federal funds. Only two states, Montana and Wyoming, aren't receiving refugees through this program. The State Department covers the financial cost of every refugee flown to America by the International Organization for Migration (IOM). Last year it spent roughly $1.1 billion resettling migrants from around the world to America; a minimum cost of $16,000 per person. After arriving, courtesy of the American taxpayer, refugees are provided free housing for 90 days, food, transportation, and assistance with finding employment. After the first 90 days, State Department funds are often replaced by Department of Health and Human Services program assistance. The states receiving the largest number of refugees are: Arizona, California, Florida, Illinois, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, North Carolina, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Texas, Virginia, Washington, Wisconsin. The 180 cities anticipating an influx of refugees are: Alaska: Anchorage Alabama: Mobile Arizona: Glendale, Phoenix, Springdale, Tucson California: Anaheim, Garden Grove, Glendale, Los Angeles, Los Gatos, Modesto, Oakland, Sacramento, San Bernardino, San Diego, San Francisco, San Jose, Turlock, Walnut Creek Colorado: Colorado Springs, Denver, Greeley Connecticut: Bridgeport, Hartford, New Haven Washington, D.C.
