New website exposes The Truth About Palestinian Rock Throwing
These actions often are deliberate provocations set up by media and activists who side with the Palestinians, in which a phalanx of photographers and videographers waits to catch an Israeli soldier responding to a provocation. The use of children as provocateurs is a common tactic — nothing plays better in the media than the image of an Israeli soldier confronting a child.Interview: Khaled Abu Toameh
But those children often are engaged in violent behavior, particularly rock throwing. A “rock” can shatter a skull, or in where thrown at a moving vehicle, can cause a serious accident.
To the media, rock throwing is no big deal. Because the media has not been on the receiving end.
The Truth About Palestinian Rock Throwing
Q. What happened to the moderate Palestinian center?Will Israel’s Left Destroy Israel?
A. Palestinians have been so radicalized that you will find very few Palestinians who will openly talk about making any significant compromise with Israel. No P.A. leader would dare to sign any agreement with Israel for fear of being condemned as a traitor. Israel has been delegitimized in the eyes of most Palestinians and this is the result of decades of indoctrination and incitement against Israel. This is true throughout the entire Arab world.
Ironically, this incitement intensified after the peace process began. The Palestine Liberation Organization leadership used the media, the mosques and every available podium to delegitimize and discredit Israel in the eyes of the Palestinians. By doing so, the P.L.O. has actually shot itself in the foot. P.A. leaders know that they have radicalized their people to the point where there are people who don’t want to hear about peace with Israel at all. I believe this is why [Mahmoud] Abbas will not sign any agreement with Israel. He simply doesn’t want to go down in history as a traitor. (h/t IsraellyCool)
From one angle, Israel has emerged out of the shadows of the left. Under conservative governments, it has modernized and innovated. The Israel of the startup probably would not exist if the kibbutz was still a viable proposition. From another angle, Israel is a conservative country in the grip of an unelected left.Allen on Israel critics who just dislike Jews
The peace process, a desperate attempt by the Labor Party to become relevant again, is headed into its third decade. The casualties of the endless Peace War and the expansion of the enemy’s capabilities to the point that Tel Aviv and Jerusalem have been shelled are all terrible, but they are not the real threat.
Asked whether it’s harder these days to be a Jew in the US, Allen responded with an immediate, “No, I don’t think so.” He added wryly that “by the low standards of tolerance for Jews all over the world, America’s been a very tolerant country.”Brother of Crown Heights Riot Victim Blasts Sharpton, Obama: 'I'm Waiting for My Invitation to the White House'
He went on to say, however, that “I do feel there are many people that disguise their negative feelings toward Jews, disguise it as anti-Israel criticism, political criticism, when in fact what they really mean is that they don’t like Jews.” (h/t Predictor92)
On Monday, Breitbart News spoke with Norman Rosenbaum, brother of Yankel Rosenbaum, the Orthodox Jewish victim of a violent mob at the 1991 Crown Heights, who was killed within days of Al Sharpton stating, “If the Jews want to get it on, tell them to pin their yarmulkes back and come over to my house.” After Rosenbaum’s death, Sharpton led a march through Crown Heights, at which protesters changed “No Justice, No Peace,” and later said in a speech with regard to a 7-year-old black child killed in an accident, “All we want to say is what Jesus said: If you offend one of these little ones, you got to pay for it. No compromise, no meetings, no coffee klatch, no skinnin' and grinnin'."Kerry Praises “Multi-Faith Model” of Muslim Country that Banned Bibles
It’s good to know that Secretary of State John Kerry’s ideal multi-faith model is a country that seized 20,000 Christian bibles, banned Ahmadis from praying and destroys a Hindu temple every 3 weeks.Former navy chief on Heathrow delay: I was not interrogated
Let’s hope his boss doesn’t intend to introduce this multi-faith model in the United States.

Rear-Admiral (ret.) Eliezer “Chiney” Marom was taken aside by British authorities after landing in London, following which he called the Israeli Justice Ministry. Marom was then released in short order.
“It was very short and not a big deal,” Maron told Channel 2 TV.
“It was little more than five minutes. I wasn’t in a side room or anything. I was in the main immigration hall. They asked me a few questions, and checked my passport.”
Efraim Zuroff, who heads The Simon Wiesenthal Center’s Jerusalem office, told La Stampa that Priebke should be returned to the place of his birth, Germany, which has the “best laws” to avoid the funeral becoming a neo-Nazi rally. “The best thing would be to send the body back to Germany for it to be incinerated,” Zuroff said.Terror Arrests in Britain Prevented 'Kenya-Like' Attack
“That would be the most efficient way to leave no trace of a Nazi criminal like Priebke,” he said. “Hitler’s body was also burnt and that was the best solution because it allowed the destruction of everything Nazism represented,” he said.
Metropolitan Police did not identify the suspects or say what, if any, charges, they may face. The men were all British nationals between the ages of 25 and 29, with roots in Turkey, Pakistan, Algeria and Azerbaijan.A day as a Jew in Malmö
Problems certainly endure. A school teacher told me some parents pulled their children out of her school once they discovered she was Jewish and she quit working in Malmö as a result.The top 12 most amazing Israeli medical advances
Meanwhile, the sole Jewish kindergarten is protected with bullet-proof doors after the bomb attack last year. When the children go out on field trips wearing their high visibility vests the name of the Jewish preschool isn't written on the vests for fear of potential attacks.
Israeli ingenuity is responsible for some of the world’s most amazing medical advances.Sealantis ‘glue’ seals the deal for surgeons
Whether they’re futuristic, such as Given Imaging’s PillCam capsule endoscopy or Itamar Medical’s fingertip monitors for sleep disorders and cardiac issues — or cleverly simple, such as First Care Products’ Emergency Bandage – blue-and-white inventions are changing the face of healthcare in hospitals, doctors’ offices, homes and even battlefields worldwide.
“It’s almost a cliché to say Israel is an excellent place for medical innovation,” says Eran Perry, managing director at Israel Health Care Ventures (IHCV), one of the largest venture capital funds in the country.
Time isn’t just money in the operating room –– it can also mean the difference between lost or saved blood, and in some cases life or death.‘Rising Star’ in a Scandinavian sky
Even with less complicated laparoscopic surgery, there is still the issue of how to seal interior incisions well so that more invasive open surgery can be avoided.
Seal-V, an Israeli adhesive positioned as a vascular “glue,” is coming to the rescue. This novel sealant, inspired by algae and developed by the company Sealantis, could be a game-changing tool for any kind of surgery, says Dr. Zeev Loberman, who heads the vascular surgery department in Bnai Zion Medical Center in Haifa.
“Rising Star” will be produced in Scandinavia for Nordisk Film TV, which covers Denmark, Norway, Sweden and Finland. Tuesday’s deal marks the fourth international sale for the crooning competition, which was snapped up by companies in France, Russia and Germany last week at MIPCOM, the annual entertainment and TV market held in Cannes.Israel Corp's Qoros sedan wins Euro NCAP safety standard
Qoros Auto Company Ltd., the joint venture of Israel Corporation (TASE: ILCO) and China's Chery Automobile Co.

They did it in sign language.
Yahala Lachmish, the reservist soldier called up to sign for the ceremony, told The Times of Israel that the idea came from the soldiers themselves, only a small minority of whom are deaf.
Russia was set to mark Monday the 70th anniversary of a revolt at the Sobibor death camp led by a Red Army officer, the biggest and most successful prisoner escape under the Nazi regime.
Ahead of the anniversary, President Vladimir Putin ordered the defense ministry to come up with a plan to "immortalise the memory of heroes who raised a revolt" at the extermination camp in occupied Poland on October 14, 1943.
