5 Chinese warships spotted off Alaska coast during President Obama's visit-By Lucas TomlinsonPublished September 02, 2015FoxNews.com
Five Chinese navy ships have been spotted in the Bering Sea, off the Alaska coast, coinciding with President Obama’s visit to the state, a senior defense official confirmed to Fox News.Navy Commander Bill Urban, a Pentagon spokesman, said Wednesday the sighting marked the first time ships from the People's Liberation Army Navy were seen in the Bering Sea."We respect the freedom of all nations to operate military vessels in international waters in accordance with international law," Urban said.There are three surface warfare ships, one amphibious assault ship and one supply vessel. The Wall Street Journal was first to report the sighting.White House spokesman Josh Earnest told reporters on Wednesday that the Defense Department "positively identified a number of Chinese naval vessels in that region, but based on their analysis, they have not detected any sort of threat or threatening activities."The U.S. military reportedly has been aware of the ships and tracking their movements for days as they moved through international waters. Earnest said the intent of the ships' presence "is still unclear” while speaking aboard Air Force One as Obama flew near the Bering Sea.June 24, 2014: The Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) Navy replenishment ship Qiandaohu (866) (L) sails past the PLA Navy hospital ship, Peace Ark, as it docks at the Joint Base Pearl Harbor Hickam to participate in the multi-national military exercise RIMPAC 2014, in Honolulu, Hawaii.Obama was in Alaska to speak about climate change.A massive military parade will begin in Beijing Wednesday night, including some 10,000 soldiers, hundreds of aircraft and weaponry not previously shown in public, according to Chinese state media. The parade is to mark Japan's surrender in World War II. An estimated 14 million Chinese were killed by the Japanese during the war. Among the invited guests are Russian President Vladimir Putin, Sudan President Omar al-Bashir, and Mexican government officials, according to the Associated Press.The massive parade and show of force comes just weeks before Chinese President Xi Jinping visits Washington.Samantha Power, U.S. Permanent Representative to the United Nations, told reporters Tuesday at the State Dept briefing that China’s human rights were “going to be a key, core issue when President Xi visits Washington.”The Associated Press contributed to this report.Lucas Tomlinson is the Pentagon and State Department producer for Fox News Channel.

What America will offer Israel after the nuclear deal-Extending aid by a decade, R&D collaboration, F-35 strike fighters among measures eyed for heightened US-Israel security cooperation; ‘Band-Aids on a hemorrhage,’ says one critic-By Ron Kampeas September 2, 2015, 2:20 am 100-THE TIMES OF ISRAEL
WASHINGTON (JTA) – The moment the Iran nuclear deal becomes law, as seems increasingly likely given growing congressional support for the agreement, the focus of the US-Israel conversation will shift to the question of what’s next.What more will Washington do to mitigate the Iranian threat and reassure Israel and other regional allies? For starters, President Barack Obama seems ready to offer an array of security enhancements. Among them are accelerating and increasing defense assistance to Israel over the next decade; increasing the US military presence in the Middle East; stepping up the enforcement of non-nuclear related Iran sanctions; enhancing US interdiction against disruptive Iranian activity in the region; and increasing cooperation on missile defense.There also will be an emphasis on keeping any of the tens of billions of dollars to which Iran will gain unfettered access through the sanctions relief from reaching Iran’s proxies.Adam Szubin, the US Treasury undersecretary charged with enforcing sanctions, made targeting Hezbollah a focus of his meetings with Israeli officials last week, JTA has learned.Once some nuclear-related sanctions on Iran are lifted – should Iran meet the requirements in the deal on nuclear restrictions – Washington will allocate greater resources to focusing on other sanctions unaffected by the agreement, including those related to backing terrorism, a senior US official told JTA.“We have a lot of that same personnel and resources we can devote to US-specific sanctions on Iran – and not only Iran,” the official said.Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, not wanting to be seen as endorsing the deal while there’s still a chance Congress could scuttle it, has directed Israeli officials not to engage with US officials on what could be done after the deal is in place. The Israeli envoy to Washington, Ron Dermer, has said that Israel would be ready for discussions only after options to kill the agreement formally known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action are exhausted.“We appreciate the support that we have gotten from this administration, from this president, to enhance our security,” Dermer told USA Today in a July 27 interview. “And the discussion that we’ll have about the day after, we’ll have to leave to the day after.”Congress has until Sept. 17 to decide whether to allow the deal to proceed.The American Israel Public Affairs Committee, which is leading the opposition to the deal, argued in a memo distributed Monday that US pledges of post-deal security enhancements are inadequate.“The administration has tried to reassure those concerned by the dangerous consequences of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) in two ways: by pledging increased support for Israel and our Gulf allies and by vowing that it will strictly enforce the deal,” said the memo, which is headlined “Promises Cannot Fix a Bad Deal.” “Neither approach will repair the deal’s fatal flaw: it legitimizes Iran as a nuclear-threshold state in 15 years.”Obama in an interview Monday with the Forward attached urgency to confronting Hezbollah and other Iranian proxies.Speaking of Israel, he said, “We can do even more to enhance the unprecedented military and intelligence cooperation that we have with them, and to see, are there additional capabilities that Israel may be able to use to prevent Hezbollah, for example, from getting missiles.”The emphasis on Hezbollah was appropriate, said Uzi Arad, Netanyahu’s national security adviser from 2009 to 2011.“The president on sensing a degree of urgency with Hezbollah sooner rather than later is absolutely right,” Arad said, noting the group’s role as an Iranian proxy in helping prop up the Assad regime in Syria. “It relates to the need to uproot and to neutralize the violent and anti-American and anti-Israel radical group. It is a matter of urgent joint concern.”Arad outlined a number of areas that would enhance Israel’s sense of security in a post-deal environment, including:* Maintaining Israel’s qualitative military edge in the region, even as the United States enhances the military capabilities of Arab Persian Gulf allies that, similar to Israel, will be seeking reassurances in the wake of the Iran deal;* Enhancing joint missile defense programs;* Extending the defense assistance memorandum of understanding, which since 2008 has provided Israel with an average of $3 billion in defense assistance per year, for another 10 years (it’s set to expire in 2018), and delivering promised F-35 advanced fighter aircraft to Israel;* Enhancing joint civilian scientific research and development;* Delivering advanced bunker-buster bombs to maintain Israel’s deterrent edge should Iran cheat on or abandon the deal. “Israel should be given this special kind of ordnance so it could have a more effective military option in case of Iranian violations of the agreement,” Arad said, arguing that this would strengthen the agreement by creating a disincentive for Iran to cheat.* A “declaratory” component emphasizing US longstanding commitments to Israel.* Making clear that the US effort to stop the expansion of Islamist terrorism and extremism targets Iranian activities as well as those associated with the Islamic State terrorist group.Obama touched on many of these issues in a letter he sent to Rep. Jerrold Nadler, D-New York, on Aug. 19.“It is imperative that, even as we effectively cut off Iran’s pathways to a nuclear weapon through the implementation of the JCPOA, we take steps to ensure that we and our allies and our partners are more capable than ever to deal with Iran’s destabilizing activities and support for terrorism,” Obama said in the letter, which was first obtained by The New York Times.The president specified four areas where cooperation would be enhanced: extending defense assistance for a decade, joint missile defense research, joint efforts to improve tunnel detection (following the advances made by Hamas in its 2014 war with Israel), and “strengthening our efforts to confront conventional and asymmetric threats.”The letter persuaded Nadler to back the deal and should be a salve to Israeli security officials, said Dan Arbell, a former deputy chief of mission at the Israeli Embassy in Washington.“If I were an Israeli bureaucrat right now in any of the related areas working around this, what the president provides in his letter is a pretty thorough list, which I think the Israeli defense establishment would be happy with,” said Arbell, who now lectures at American University.Persian Gulf allies would want the reassurances that Israel is receiving as well as specific assurances of assistance in keeping Iran from meddling in Arab affairs, said Michael Eisenstadt, a longtime officer in the US Army Reserve who served in the Middle East.Even with such assurances, Eisenstadt said, Gulf allies would remain concerned that the deal enhances Iran’s stature.“Weapons are Band-Aids on a hemorrhage,” said Eisenstadt, now a fellow at the Washington Institute for Near East Policy. “From the point of view of our allies in the region, we’ve contributed to a lot of the problem” by advancing the Iran deal.
As Obama seals Iran deal, PM claims most Americans and lawmakers oppose it-‘Clear majority seems prepared to reject the deal,’ sources close to Netanyahu say, after 34th senator backs nuclear accord-By Raphael Ahren and Times of Israel staff September 2, 2015, 8:54 pm 41
As US President Obama clinched the support of enough Senators to sustain his veto of a bill trying to kill the Iranian nuclear deal, a source close to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Wednesday that a “clear majority” of lawmakers oppose the deal, and called on more legislators to join the no-deal camp.“The prime minister said before addressing the Congress in March that it is his duty to present Israel’s grave concerns about the deal with Iran to the American people and their representatives,” a source told The Times of Israel.“The American people get it. They understand the dangers to Israel. They understand the dangers to the United States. That’s why a clear majority believe the deal should be rejected, which is also reflected in Congress, where a clear majority seems prepared to reject the deal.”The stronger the opposition in Congress to the deal, the stronger the message to Iran and to America’s allies in the region and the greater the likelihood that that message will be reflected in US policy moving forward, the source said.Netanyahu has no doubt that US-Israel relations will remain strong despite Jerusalem’s bitter anti-deal campaign, the sources added.The comments came hours after Maryland Senator Barbara Mikulski announced her support for the agreement on Wednesday, becoming the veto-sustaining 34th Democrat to back the deal and allowing the Obama administration to breathe a major sigh of relief.The announcement by Mikulski confirms that lobbying from the GOP and Israeli allies failed to convince enough lawmakers to quash the deal. Netanyahu has been at the forefront of pushing against the deal, even at the expense of straining ties with Washington over the issue.Despite the tensions, Netanyahu may meet with US President Barack Obama in Washington in November, Israel’s Channel 2 reported Wednesday night. There was no independent confirmation of the tentative plans.Obama and Netanyahu have not met face-to-face since October 2014, though Netanyahu traveled to the US in March and plans to return to the country later this month for the United Nations General Assembly.Meretz leader Zahava Gal-on on Wednesday slammed the prime minister for damaging ties with the US while failing to achieve his objective of averting the nuclear deal, accusing him of setting out on a battle which he was bound to lose in order to please his Republican supporters in the US.“Maybe now Bibi will remember which country he does not lead and cease from trying to dig under the ground Obama stands on, an act which caused Israel only harm,” Gal-on said, referring to the prime minister by his nickname.American Jewish lobbying group J Street, which supported Obama’s position on the deal from the start, issued a statement terming Mikulski’s support “a significant milestone and a victory for President Obama’s policy of using diplomacy to tackle even the toughest international disputes.”“After a great national debate that has taken place over the past two months, rational argument, solid analysis and sober reflection have won over wild exaggeration, scaremongering and a flood of money,” said J Street President Jeremy Ben-Ami.He boasted that opponents of the deal, including AIPAC, a much better funded and larger organization, “outspent” J Street and other supporters of the deal, “but almost every lawmaker who began this debate undecided and was willing to listen to both sides ended up supporting the deal.”Ben-Ami said it was “sad” that Republicans took a position “of reflexively and thoughtlessly opposing the agreement.” The only “real debate” over the deal’s merits or flaws, he said, took place “almost exclusively among Democrats.”He warned opponents of the deal may still try to “attach killer amendments to the resolution to disapprove of the agreement” or to introduce later legislation in Congress that would make the nuclear deal ineffective.Like us on Facebook
House to vote on Iran bill next week, GOP says-Legislation to scupper accord expected to pass; White House hails 34th senator’s support for Iran deal, which could uphold a presidential veto-By AFP and AP September 3, 2015, 2:10 am-THE TIMES OF ISRAEL
The US House of Representatives will vote next week on the Iran nuclear deal, Republican leadership said Wednesday, the first congressional step in a process President Barack Obama hopes will uphold his landmark accord.“Next week the House will consider a resolution of disapproval of the Iran nuclear deal,” House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy said in a statement.“This vote will have an immense impact on our national security as well as the security of our friends and partners around the world,” he added.The vote had been expected in September, but the timing was not previously known.With most US lawmakers opposed to the accord, which aims to severely restrict Iran’s nuclear program in exchange for an easing of punishing economic sanctions, the resolution of disapproval is certain to pass the House.“With a clear majority of Congress and the American people lining up in opposition to this deal, the House will not approve this deal. This is a bad deal for our country and for our allies,” McCarthy said.Action would then shift to the Senate. Should the resolution pass both chambers, Obama will veto it, setting up votes in Congress to override his veto.Such an override would require a two-thirds vote in both chambers.But the White House earned a victory of sorts Wednesday when a retiring Senate Democrat became the crucial 34th senator to support the accord, ensuring that Obama’s veto would not be overturned and the deal would proceed.The White House said it’s encouraged that more than a third of the Senate has announced support for the nuclear deal with Iran.White House press secretary Josh Earnest called the growing support a validation of Obama’s effort to “make sure that every member of the Senate understands exactly what’s included in the agreement.” The deal sets Iran back so that it is at least a year away from being able to produce enough nuclear material for a weapon, before the restrictions ease after a decade.
Knesset advances controversial anti-terror bill-Draft law goes to committee before final approval; critics describe legislation increasing punishment for terrorism as ‘totalitarian’-By Josefin Dolsten and Times of Israel staff September 3, 2015, 2:00 am
The Knesset advanced late Wednesday night a controversial bill that significantly broadens the definition of terrorism and toughens punishment for many offenses deemed terror-related.The parliament voted 45 in favor and 14 against the legislation on its first reading.The bill widens the definition of terrorist acts and organizations and lengthens punishments for terror-related offenses, including providing for equal punishment for perpetrators of terrorist attacks and their abettors.The bill now heads to the Knesset’s Constitution, Law and Justice Committee where it could face amendment. It must then be approved twice more by the Knesset plenary in order to become law.Meretz chairwoman Zehava Gal-on said during the Knesset debate that “we need to eliminate the factory creating motivation for terrorism, which is the occupation,” Haaretz reported.Opposition leaders have criticized aspects of the bill and said they were not given sufficient time to review its details, as they only received a copy of the 104-page legislation on Monday.The government’s National Security Council decided to push the law in the Knesset in light of a recent firebombing attack in the West Bank town of Duma, allegedly committed by Jewish extremists, in which a Palestinian baby and his father were killed.The bill includes threats of terrorist activity in its definition of terrorism, and does not differentiate between acts committed against civilians or soldiers.Senior lawmakers from the opposition Zionist Union party had said most of the party would support the bill, according to Haaretz.“How could we explain to the public that we voted against a comprehensive, updated bill whose purpose is fighting terror?” asked one unnamed Zionist Union Knesset member on Tuesday.He added that Tzipi Livni, second in the leadership of the Zionist Union, had backed the bill in the previous Knesset.The anonymous lawmaker added that while he objected to parts of the bill, he supported its passing a first reading, saying that it could later be modified in the Knesset’s Constitution, Law and Justice Committee.Livni said the bill provided “a full an comprehensive response to combat terrorism,” adding that passing it was “the right and duty of a democracy to its citizens.”According to the new bill, the punishment for threatening to perform a terrorist act would be equal to that for performing such an act. The bill also doubles maximum punishment for terror-related activities, to up to 30 years in prison.The legislation states that anyone who expresses solidarity with a terrorist group will face up to three years’ incarceration. That includes organizations that support but do not commit acts of terror and Palestinian charities affiliated with Hamas.Anyone over the age of 12 can be prosecuted for terrorist involvement, and a wide range of activities — including wearing a shirt with a terror organization’s name on it — constitute such involvement.The bill establishes the use of anti-terror tools in non-emergency situations, including allowing the Shin Bet security services to use computer services to monitor those suspected of involvement in terror activities, with the approval of the prime minister.Since the bill’s inception five years ago, it has been debated by previous Knessets, although it was stalled for a time by the Constitution, Law and Justice Committee. It subsumes all previous anti-terror laws and would replace legislation from the British Mandate-era, before the State of Israel was established.

Kerry hopeful Israeli-Palestinian talks can be relaunched-US secretary of state says resuming peace process based on a two-state solution ‘imperative’-By AFP and Itamar Sharon September 2, 2015, 10:19 pm 11-THE TIMES OF ISRAEL
US Secretary of State John Kerry said Wednesday he believes Middle East peace talks can be relaunched, a day after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he was ready to resume direct talks with the Palestinians.“I believe there is a chance and I think it is imperative we have not lost sight of that issue,” Kerry said in an interview with MSNBC.Relations between the United States and its closest ally in the Middle East have been strained since the last set of direct talks collapsed in April 2014 amid bitter recriminations.Adding to the discord has been Netanyahu’s vehement opposition to an international agreement aimed at limiting Iran’s nuclear program, which US President Barack Obama has championed.But on Tuesday, Netanyahu said he was ready to begin direct talks immediately with Palestinian president Mahmoud Abbas without conditions.Noting Netanyahu’s comments, Kerry voiced hope that there would be a way forward, but added: “Let’s wait and see what happens. I think we have to get through the next weeks before we start talking about the rest of the agenda.”Netanyahu has sought to reposition himself as a proponent of the two-state solution since his reelection, after his pre-election comments rejecting the establishment of a Palestinian state led the US to threaten it would reassess its policies towards Israel.Secret contacts between Netanyahu and Abbas have been taking place for several months, according to recent reports, including in The Times of Israel. Those reports have been denied by both the Prime Minister’s Office and chief Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erekat.In recent months, Obama has warned that Israel is losing credibility in an international community that doesn’t believe the country is serious about a two-state solution.Netanyahu’s willingness to return to the negotiating table comes on the heels of rumors that the 80-year-old Abbas plans to step down as president of the PA, after a decade on the job, amid frustration that all roads to Palestinian statehood appear blocked.Washington has pushed direct Israeli-Palestinian talks as the way to reach a two-state solution to the conflict, while opposing Palestinian moves at the United Nations to gain international recognition of a Palestinian state.

Navy commandos simulate attack on offshore gas rig-Elite Flotilla 13 soldiers drill retaking platform from terrorists without use of live rounds, to avoid gas explosion-By Times of Israel staff September 3, 2015, 12:57 am
Israeli commandos recently simulated a hypothetical terrorist attack on one of Israel’s vulnerable Mediterranean gas rigs, the IDF told reporters on Wednesday.The drill, involving the Israel Navy’s elite Flotilla 13, took place approximately one month ago. The exercise involved hostile gunmen taking civilians hostage after commandeering one of the offshore rigs. The naval commandos were instructed to reach the rig and retake it from the gunmen without use of firearms, out of concern that gunfire could set the gas alight and cause the rig to explode.“The opponent that will scale the rig is not one terrorist wearing a keffiyeh” — a traditional Palestinian headscarf, a navy officer told Haaretz. “It’s going to be someone who understands that this is a strategic asset to the State of Israel.”Israel closed a deal with Germany for naval vessels bought specifically to protect the gas rigs — but these will not arrive until 2019. In the meantime, Navy frigates are patrolling the waters near the sensitive installations. The navy fears also a scenario in which a missiles fired from shore would strike one of the strategically critical rigs. Such a missile would inflict significant damage to the rig, the officer said, but added that even minor damage inflicted by a missile would have significant psychological consequences for Israel.During Operation Protective Edge last year, Hamas fired rockets at the port of Ashdod. None threatened Israel’s gas platforms, but several impacted only a short distance from them, Haaretz quoted the officer saying.The Barak 8 anti-aircraft missile defense system, currently deployed on Israel Navy frigates, was recently adapted to intercept incoming projectiles at a range of 70 kilometers (44 miles). While the system is still undergoing tests, Israel hopes to deploy it in the coming months. In the meantime, the Barak system’s radar is installed on one frigate and provides improved detection of ships and aircraft. Once modified, the Barak 8 missile defense system will become “not unlike a naval Iron Dome,” according to Israel Radio, referring to Israel’s land-based missile defense system that proved effective in intercepting rockets fired at southern Israel from the Gaza Strip.The military, particularly the navy, is responsible for defending the gas rigs, according to a government decision from 2013. The security personnel currently stationed on the rigs are former soldiers from elite units who receive professional guidance from the military. Criminals or pirates are a threat to oil and gas rigs around the world, the officer was quoted by Haaretz saying, not just Israel.

5 Chinese warships spotted off Alaska coast during President Obama's visit-By Lucas TomlinsonPublished September 02, 2015FoxNews.com
Five Chinese navy ships have been spotted in the Bering Sea, off the Alaska coast, coinciding with President Obama’s visit to the state, a senior defense official confirmed to Fox News.Navy Commander Bill Urban, a Pentagon spokesman, said Wednesday the sighting marked the first time ships from the People's Liberation Army Navy were seen in the Bering Sea."We respect the freedom of all nations to operate military vessels in international waters in accordance with international law," Urban said.There are three surface warfare ships, one amphibious assault ship and one supply vessel. The Wall Street Journal was first to report the sighting.White House spokesman Josh Earnest told reporters on Wednesday that the Defense Department "positively identified a number of Chinese naval vessels in that region, but based on their analysis, they have not detected any sort of threat or threatening activities."The U.S. military reportedly has been aware of the ships and tracking their movements for days as they moved through international waters. Earnest said the intent of the ships' presence "is still unclear” while speaking aboard Air Force One as Obama flew near the Bering Sea.June 24, 2014: The Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) Navy replenishment ship Qiandaohu (866) (L) sails past the PLA Navy hospital ship, Peace Ark, as it docks at the Joint Base Pearl Harbor Hickam to participate in the multi-national military exercise RIMPAC 2014, in Honolulu, Hawaii.Obama was in Alaska to speak about climate change.A massive military parade will begin in Beijing Wednesday night, including some 10,000 soldiers, hundreds of aircraft and weaponry not previously shown in public, according to Chinese state media. The parade is to mark Japan's surrender in World War II. An estimated 14 million Chinese were killed by the Japanese during the war. Among the invited guests are Russian President Vladimir Putin, Sudan President Omar al-Bashir, and Mexican government officials, according to the Associated Press.The massive parade and show of force comes just weeks before Chinese President Xi Jinping visits Washington.Samantha Power, U.S. Permanent Representative to the United Nations, told reporters Tuesday at the State Dept briefing that China’s human rights were “going to be a key, core issue when President Xi visits Washington.”The Associated Press contributed to this report.Lucas Tomlinson is the Pentagon and State Department producer for Fox News Channel.

What America will offer Israel after the nuclear deal-Extending aid by a decade, R&D collaboration, F-35 strike fighters among measures eyed for heightened US-Israel security cooperation; ‘Band-Aids on a hemorrhage,’ says one critic-By Ron Kampeas September 2, 2015, 2:20 am 100-THE TIMES OF ISRAEL
WASHINGTON (JTA) – The moment the Iran nuclear deal becomes law, as seems increasingly likely given growing congressional support for the agreement, the focus of the US-Israel conversation will shift to the question of what’s next.What more will Washington do to mitigate the Iranian threat and reassure Israel and other regional allies? For starters, President Barack Obama seems ready to offer an array of security enhancements. Among them are accelerating and increasing defense assistance to Israel over the next decade; increasing the US military presence in the Middle East; stepping up the enforcement of non-nuclear related Iran sanctions; enhancing US interdiction against disruptive Iranian activity in the region; and increasing cooperation on missile defense.There also will be an emphasis on keeping any of the tens of billions of dollars to which Iran will gain unfettered access through the sanctions relief from reaching Iran’s proxies.Adam Szubin, the US Treasury undersecretary charged with enforcing sanctions, made targeting Hezbollah a focus of his meetings with Israeli officials last week, JTA has learned.Once some nuclear-related sanctions on Iran are lifted – should Iran meet the requirements in the deal on nuclear restrictions – Washington will allocate greater resources to focusing on other sanctions unaffected by the agreement, including those related to backing terrorism, a senior US official told JTA.“We have a lot of that same personnel and resources we can devote to US-specific sanctions on Iran – and not only Iran,” the official said.Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, not wanting to be seen as endorsing the deal while there’s still a chance Congress could scuttle it, has directed Israeli officials not to engage with US officials on what could be done after the deal is in place. The Israeli envoy to Washington, Ron Dermer, has said that Israel would be ready for discussions only after options to kill the agreement formally known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action are exhausted.“We appreciate the support that we have gotten from this administration, from this president, to enhance our security,” Dermer told USA Today in a July 27 interview. “And the discussion that we’ll have about the day after, we’ll have to leave to the day after.”Congress has until Sept. 17 to decide whether to allow the deal to proceed.The American Israel Public Affairs Committee, which is leading the opposition to the deal, argued in a memo distributed Monday that US pledges of post-deal security enhancements are inadequate.“The administration has tried to reassure those concerned by the dangerous consequences of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) in two ways: by pledging increased support for Israel and our Gulf allies and by vowing that it will strictly enforce the deal,” said the memo, which is headlined “Promises Cannot Fix a Bad Deal.” “Neither approach will repair the deal’s fatal flaw: it legitimizes Iran as a nuclear-threshold state in 15 years.”Obama in an interview Monday with the Forward attached urgency to confronting Hezbollah and other Iranian proxies.Speaking of Israel, he said, “We can do even more to enhance the unprecedented military and intelligence cooperation that we have with them, and to see, are there additional capabilities that Israel may be able to use to prevent Hezbollah, for example, from getting missiles.”The emphasis on Hezbollah was appropriate, said Uzi Arad, Netanyahu’s national security adviser from 2009 to 2011.“The president on sensing a degree of urgency with Hezbollah sooner rather than later is absolutely right,” Arad said, noting the group’s role as an Iranian proxy in helping prop up the Assad regime in Syria. “It relates to the need to uproot and to neutralize the violent and anti-American and anti-Israel radical group. It is a matter of urgent joint concern.”Arad outlined a number of areas that would enhance Israel’s sense of security in a post-deal environment, including:* Maintaining Israel’s qualitative military edge in the region, even as the United States enhances the military capabilities of Arab Persian Gulf allies that, similar to Israel, will be seeking reassurances in the wake of the Iran deal;* Enhancing joint missile defense programs;* Extending the defense assistance memorandum of understanding, which since 2008 has provided Israel with an average of $3 billion in defense assistance per year, for another 10 years (it’s set to expire in 2018), and delivering promised F-35 advanced fighter aircraft to Israel;* Enhancing joint civilian scientific research and development;* Delivering advanced bunker-buster bombs to maintain Israel’s deterrent edge should Iran cheat on or abandon the deal. “Israel should be given this special kind of ordnance so it could have a more effective military option in case of Iranian violations of the agreement,” Arad said, arguing that this would strengthen the agreement by creating a disincentive for Iran to cheat.* A “declaratory” component emphasizing US longstanding commitments to Israel.* Making clear that the US effort to stop the expansion of Islamist terrorism and extremism targets Iranian activities as well as those associated with the Islamic State terrorist group.Obama touched on many of these issues in a letter he sent to Rep. Jerrold Nadler, D-New York, on Aug. 19.“It is imperative that, even as we effectively cut off Iran’s pathways to a nuclear weapon through the implementation of the JCPOA, we take steps to ensure that we and our allies and our partners are more capable than ever to deal with Iran’s destabilizing activities and support for terrorism,” Obama said in the letter, which was first obtained by The New York Times.The president specified four areas where cooperation would be enhanced: extending defense assistance for a decade, joint missile defense research, joint efforts to improve tunnel detection (following the advances made by Hamas in its 2014 war with Israel), and “strengthening our efforts to confront conventional and asymmetric threats.”The letter persuaded Nadler to back the deal and should be a salve to Israeli security officials, said Dan Arbell, a former deputy chief of mission at the Israeli Embassy in Washington.“If I were an Israeli bureaucrat right now in any of the related areas working around this, what the president provides in his letter is a pretty thorough list, which I think the Israeli defense establishment would be happy with,” said Arbell, who now lectures at American University.Persian Gulf allies would want the reassurances that Israel is receiving as well as specific assurances of assistance in keeping Iran from meddling in Arab affairs, said Michael Eisenstadt, a longtime officer in the US Army Reserve who served in the Middle East.Even with such assurances, Eisenstadt said, Gulf allies would remain concerned that the deal enhances Iran’s stature.“Weapons are Band-Aids on a hemorrhage,” said Eisenstadt, now a fellow at the Washington Institute for Near East Policy. “From the point of view of our allies in the region, we’ve contributed to a lot of the problem” by advancing the Iran deal.
As Obama seals Iran deal, PM claims most Americans and lawmakers oppose it-‘Clear majority seems prepared to reject the deal,’ sources close to Netanyahu say, after 34th senator backs nuclear accord-By Raphael Ahren and Times of Israel staff September 2, 2015, 8:54 pm 41
As US President Obama clinched the support of enough Senators to sustain his veto of a bill trying to kill the Iranian nuclear deal, a source close to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Wednesday that a “clear majority” of lawmakers oppose the deal, and called on more legislators to join the no-deal camp.“The prime minister said before addressing the Congress in March that it is his duty to present Israel’s grave concerns about the deal with Iran to the American people and their representatives,” a source told The Times of Israel.“The American people get it. They understand the dangers to Israel. They understand the dangers to the United States. That’s why a clear majority believe the deal should be rejected, which is also reflected in Congress, where a clear majority seems prepared to reject the deal.”The stronger the opposition in Congress to the deal, the stronger the message to Iran and to America’s allies in the region and the greater the likelihood that that message will be reflected in US policy moving forward, the source said.Netanyahu has no doubt that US-Israel relations will remain strong despite Jerusalem’s bitter anti-deal campaign, the sources added.The comments came hours after Maryland Senator Barbara Mikulski announced her support for the agreement on Wednesday, becoming the veto-sustaining 34th Democrat to back the deal and allowing the Obama administration to breathe a major sigh of relief.The announcement by Mikulski confirms that lobbying from the GOP and Israeli allies failed to convince enough lawmakers to quash the deal. Netanyahu has been at the forefront of pushing against the deal, even at the expense of straining ties with Washington over the issue.Despite the tensions, Netanyahu may meet with US President Barack Obama in Washington in November, Israel’s Channel 2 reported Wednesday night. There was no independent confirmation of the tentative plans.Obama and Netanyahu have not met face-to-face since October 2014, though Netanyahu traveled to the US in March and plans to return to the country later this month for the United Nations General Assembly.Meretz leader Zahava Gal-on on Wednesday slammed the prime minister for damaging ties with the US while failing to achieve his objective of averting the nuclear deal, accusing him of setting out on a battle which he was bound to lose in order to please his Republican supporters in the US.“Maybe now Bibi will remember which country he does not lead and cease from trying to dig under the ground Obama stands on, an act which caused Israel only harm,” Gal-on said, referring to the prime minister by his nickname.American Jewish lobbying group J Street, which supported Obama’s position on the deal from the start, issued a statement terming Mikulski’s support “a significant milestone and a victory for President Obama’s policy of using diplomacy to tackle even the toughest international disputes.”“After a great national debate that has taken place over the past two months, rational argument, solid analysis and sober reflection have won over wild exaggeration, scaremongering and a flood of money,” said J Street President Jeremy Ben-Ami.He boasted that opponents of the deal, including AIPAC, a much better funded and larger organization, “outspent” J Street and other supporters of the deal, “but almost every lawmaker who began this debate undecided and was willing to listen to both sides ended up supporting the deal.”Ben-Ami said it was “sad” that Republicans took a position “of reflexively and thoughtlessly opposing the agreement.” The only “real debate” over the deal’s merits or flaws, he said, took place “almost exclusively among Democrats.”He warned opponents of the deal may still try to “attach killer amendments to the resolution to disapprove of the agreement” or to introduce later legislation in Congress that would make the nuclear deal ineffective.Like us on Facebook
House to vote on Iran bill next week, GOP says-Legislation to scupper accord expected to pass; White House hails 34th senator’s support for Iran deal, which could uphold a presidential veto-By AFP and AP September 3, 2015, 2:10 am-THE TIMES OF ISRAEL
The US House of Representatives will vote next week on the Iran nuclear deal, Republican leadership said Wednesday, the first congressional step in a process President Barack Obama hopes will uphold his landmark accord.“Next week the House will consider a resolution of disapproval of the Iran nuclear deal,” House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy said in a statement.“This vote will have an immense impact on our national security as well as the security of our friends and partners around the world,” he added.The vote had been expected in September, but the timing was not previously known.With most US lawmakers opposed to the accord, which aims to severely restrict Iran’s nuclear program in exchange for an easing of punishing economic sanctions, the resolution of disapproval is certain to pass the House.“With a clear majority of Congress and the American people lining up in opposition to this deal, the House will not approve this deal. This is a bad deal for our country and for our allies,” McCarthy said.Action would then shift to the Senate. Should the resolution pass both chambers, Obama will veto it, setting up votes in Congress to override his veto.Such an override would require a two-thirds vote in both chambers.But the White House earned a victory of sorts Wednesday when a retiring Senate Democrat became the crucial 34th senator to support the accord, ensuring that Obama’s veto would not be overturned and the deal would proceed.The White House said it’s encouraged that more than a third of the Senate has announced support for the nuclear deal with Iran.White House press secretary Josh Earnest called the growing support a validation of Obama’s effort to “make sure that every member of the Senate understands exactly what’s included in the agreement.” The deal sets Iran back so that it is at least a year away from being able to produce enough nuclear material for a weapon, before the restrictions ease after a decade.
Knesset advances controversial anti-terror bill-Draft law goes to committee before final approval; critics describe legislation increasing punishment for terrorism as ‘totalitarian’-By Josefin Dolsten and Times of Israel staff September 3, 2015, 2:00 am
The Knesset advanced late Wednesday night a controversial bill that significantly broadens the definition of terrorism and toughens punishment for many offenses deemed terror-related.The parliament voted 45 in favor and 14 against the legislation on its first reading.The bill widens the definition of terrorist acts and organizations and lengthens punishments for terror-related offenses, including providing for equal punishment for perpetrators of terrorist attacks and their abettors.The bill now heads to the Knesset’s Constitution, Law and Justice Committee where it could face amendment. It must then be approved twice more by the Knesset plenary in order to become law.Meretz chairwoman Zehava Gal-on said during the Knesset debate that “we need to eliminate the factory creating motivation for terrorism, which is the occupation,” Haaretz reported.Opposition leaders have criticized aspects of the bill and said they were not given sufficient time to review its details, as they only received a copy of the 104-page legislation on Monday.The government’s National Security Council decided to push the law in the Knesset in light of a recent firebombing attack in the West Bank town of Duma, allegedly committed by Jewish extremists, in which a Palestinian baby and his father were killed.The bill includes threats of terrorist activity in its definition of terrorism, and does not differentiate between acts committed against civilians or soldiers.Senior lawmakers from the opposition Zionist Union party had said most of the party would support the bill, according to Haaretz.“How could we explain to the public that we voted against a comprehensive, updated bill whose purpose is fighting terror?” asked one unnamed Zionist Union Knesset member on Tuesday.He added that Tzipi Livni, second in the leadership of the Zionist Union, had backed the bill in the previous Knesset.The anonymous lawmaker added that while he objected to parts of the bill, he supported its passing a first reading, saying that it could later be modified in the Knesset’s Constitution, Law and Justice Committee.Livni said the bill provided “a full an comprehensive response to combat terrorism,” adding that passing it was “the right and duty of a democracy to its citizens.”According to the new bill, the punishment for threatening to perform a terrorist act would be equal to that for performing such an act. The bill also doubles maximum punishment for terror-related activities, to up to 30 years in prison.The legislation states that anyone who expresses solidarity with a terrorist group will face up to three years’ incarceration. That includes organizations that support but do not commit acts of terror and Palestinian charities affiliated with Hamas.Anyone over the age of 12 can be prosecuted for terrorist involvement, and a wide range of activities — including wearing a shirt with a terror organization’s name on it — constitute such involvement.The bill establishes the use of anti-terror tools in non-emergency situations, including allowing the Shin Bet security services to use computer services to monitor those suspected of involvement in terror activities, with the approval of the prime minister.Since the bill’s inception five years ago, it has been debated by previous Knessets, although it was stalled for a time by the Constitution, Law and Justice Committee. It subsumes all previous anti-terror laws and would replace legislation from the British Mandate-era, before the State of Israel was established.

Kerry hopeful Israeli-Palestinian talks can be relaunched-US secretary of state says resuming peace process based on a two-state solution ‘imperative’-By AFP and Itamar Sharon September 2, 2015, 10:19 pm 11-THE TIMES OF ISRAEL
US Secretary of State John Kerry said Wednesday he believes Middle East peace talks can be relaunched, a day after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he was ready to resume direct talks with the Palestinians.“I believe there is a chance and I think it is imperative we have not lost sight of that issue,” Kerry said in an interview with MSNBC.Relations between the United States and its closest ally in the Middle East have been strained since the last set of direct talks collapsed in April 2014 amid bitter recriminations.Adding to the discord has been Netanyahu’s vehement opposition to an international agreement aimed at limiting Iran’s nuclear program, which US President Barack Obama has championed.But on Tuesday, Netanyahu said he was ready to begin direct talks immediately with Palestinian president Mahmoud Abbas without conditions.Noting Netanyahu’s comments, Kerry voiced hope that there would be a way forward, but added: “Let’s wait and see what happens. I think we have to get through the next weeks before we start talking about the rest of the agenda.”Netanyahu has sought to reposition himself as a proponent of the two-state solution since his reelection, after his pre-election comments rejecting the establishment of a Palestinian state led the US to threaten it would reassess its policies towards Israel.Secret contacts between Netanyahu and Abbas have been taking place for several months, according to recent reports, including in The Times of Israel. Those reports have been denied by both the Prime Minister’s Office and chief Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erekat.In recent months, Obama has warned that Israel is losing credibility in an international community that doesn’t believe the country is serious about a two-state solution.Netanyahu’s willingness to return to the negotiating table comes on the heels of rumors that the 80-year-old Abbas plans to step down as president of the PA, after a decade on the job, amid frustration that all roads to Palestinian statehood appear blocked.Washington has pushed direct Israeli-Palestinian talks as the way to reach a two-state solution to the conflict, while opposing Palestinian moves at the United Nations to gain international recognition of a Palestinian state.

Navy commandos simulate attack on offshore gas rig-Elite Flotilla 13 soldiers drill retaking platform from terrorists without use of live rounds, to avoid gas explosion-By Times of Israel staff September 3, 2015, 12:57 am
Israeli commandos recently simulated a hypothetical terrorist attack on one of Israel’s vulnerable Mediterranean gas rigs, the IDF told reporters on Wednesday.The drill, involving the Israel Navy’s elite Flotilla 13, took place approximately one month ago. The exercise involved hostile gunmen taking civilians hostage after commandeering one of the offshore rigs. The naval commandos were instructed to reach the rig and retake it from the gunmen without use of firearms, out of concern that gunfire could set the gas alight and cause the rig to explode.“The opponent that will scale the rig is not one terrorist wearing a keffiyeh” — a traditional Palestinian headscarf, a navy officer told Haaretz. “It’s going to be someone who understands that this is a strategic asset to the State of Israel.”Israel closed a deal with Germany for naval vessels bought specifically to protect the gas rigs — but these will not arrive until 2019. In the meantime, Navy frigates are patrolling the waters near the sensitive installations. The navy fears also a scenario in which a missiles fired from shore would strike one of the strategically critical rigs. Such a missile would inflict significant damage to the rig, the officer said, but added that even minor damage inflicted by a missile would have significant psychological consequences for Israel.During Operation Protective Edge last year, Hamas fired rockets at the port of Ashdod. None threatened Israel’s gas platforms, but several impacted only a short distance from them, Haaretz quoted the officer saying.The Barak 8 anti-aircraft missile defense system, currently deployed on Israel Navy frigates, was recently adapted to intercept incoming projectiles at a range of 70 kilometers (44 miles). While the system is still undergoing tests, Israel hopes to deploy it in the coming months. In the meantime, the Barak system’s radar is installed on one frigate and provides improved detection of ships and aircraft. Once modified, the Barak 8 missile defense system will become “not unlike a naval Iron Dome,” according to Israel Radio, referring to Israel’s land-based missile defense system that proved effective in intercepting rockets fired at southern Israel from the Gaza Strip.The military, particularly the navy, is responsible for defending the gas rigs, according to a government decision from 2013. The security personnel currently stationed on the rigs are former soldiers from elite units who receive professional guidance from the military. Criminals or pirates are a threat to oil and gas rigs around the world, the officer was quoted by Haaretz saying, not just Israel.
