Israel approves jailing terrorists from age 12-Knesset passes law that ensures minors under age 14 convicted of serious violent crimes not be ‘shown mercy by the law’-By AFP and Times of Israel staff August 3, 2016, 8:05 pm
Israeli lawmakers have approved jailing children as young as 12 who have been convicted of terrorism, following repeated attacks by young Palestinians.“The ‘Youth Bill,’ which will allow the authorities to imprison a minor convicted of serious crimes such as murder, attempted murder or manslaughter even if he or she is under the age of 14, passed its second and third readings…Tuesday night,” an English-language statement from the Knesset said.It added that the seriousness of attacks in recent months “demands a more aggressive approach, including toward minors.”The statement quoted Anat Berko, a lawmaker from Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s right-wing Likud party and the bill’s sponsor, as saying “to those who are murdered with a knife in the heart it does not matter if the child is 12 or 15.”Violence in Israel since October has killed at least 34 Israelis, two Americans, an Eritrean and a Sudanese, according to an AFP count. Some 219 Palestinians have also been killed. Most of the Palestinians killed were carrying out knife, gun or car-ramming attacks, according to Israeli authorities.Many of the assailants were young people, including teenagers. Other youths have been shot dead during protests and clashes with security forces.Justice Minister Ayelet Shaked gave the bill full backing when it came before a ministerial committee last year.“Youths, such as Ahmed Manasra, who engage in terror and seek the death of Jewish civilians will not be shown mercy by the law,” media quoted her as saying.Manasra, a 14-year-old Palestinian, was convicted in May of the attempted murder of two Israelis in a knife attack last October. He was 13 when he carried out the attack.His sentencing hearings will begin on September 22.Along with a 15-year-old cousin, he stabbed and seriously wounded a 20-year male security guard and a 12-year-old boy in the northern Jerusalem neighborhood of Pisgat Zeev.The cousin was shot dead by security forces, while Manasra was hit by a car as they fled.Manasra, an East Jerusalem resident, was the youngest Palestinian to be convicted by an Israeli civilian court in the current round of violence.Israeli rights group B’Tselem criticized the bill and Israel’s treatment of Palestinian youths.“Rather than sending them to prison, Israel would be better off sending them to school where they could grow up in dignity and freedom not under occupation,” it said in a statement Wednesday.“Imprisoning such young minors denies them the chance of a better future.”Military law, applied to Palestinian residents of the West Bank, already allows imprisonment of 12-year-olds.A 12-year-old Palestinian girl from the West Bank, convicted of attempted murder by a military court as part of a plea bargain and sentenced to four months, was released from prison in April.

Trump spokesperson blames Obama, Clinton for soldier’s 2004 death-But US president, Democratic nominee were senators when US Army Capt. Humayun Khan was killed in Iraq-By AP and Times of Israel staff August 3, 2016, 7:05 pm
A spokeswoman for Donald Trump has blamed Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton for the 2004 killing of US Army Capt. Humayun Khan in Iraq — even though the death occurred more than four years before Obama became president.Trump has been in a public fight with Khan’s parents after Khan’s father criticized the Republican nominee at last week’s Democratic convention.In an interview with CNN’s Wolf Blitzer Tuesday evening, Katrina Pierson said, “It was under Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton that changed the rules of engagements that probably cost his life.”Obama was a state senator in Illinois in 2004. Clinton was a senator representing New York. She voted in favor of the Iraq War in 2002.Trump has been widely criticized, including by many Republicans, for denouncing the Khans, who are Muslim-Americans.Pierson’s comments have become a trending topic under #KatrinaPiersonHistory. She touched on the controversy herself on Twitter by writing that she’ll make history by getting Trump elected president.Trump on Tuesday slammed Obama, accusing him of “failed leadership” and, together with Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton, “single-handedly” destabilizing the Middle East.He accused the pair of putting Iran “on the path to nuclear weapons” and said they have allowed “dozens of veterans to die” and “repeatedly admitted migrants later implicated in terrorism.”The Republican nominee was responding to a blistering attack by the US president earlier Tuesday, who declared him “unfit” and “woefully unprepared” to serve in the White House. He challenged Republican lawmakers to drop their support for their party’s nominee, declaring, “There has to come a point at which you say enough.”
Italian reporter probed over interviews for Hezbollah documentary-Israel demands answers after journalist told ex-defense and foreign ministers, wounded veteran footage was for BBC; reporter claims he was misled-By Tamar Pileggi and Times of Israel staff August 3, 2016, 7:29 pm-THE TIMES OF ISRAEL
The Government Press Office has opened an investigation into an Italian journalist who recently interviewed three senior Israeli officials and a wounded Israel Defense Forces soldier for what turned out to be a Hezbollah documentary on the 2006 Second Lebanon War.According to the Hebrew-language Ynet news website, the GPO “is taking steps” against Michela Moni and Italy’s ANSA news agency over the documentary, and has called the head of ANSA to demand an explanation.“This is a severe situation that borders on fraud and misrepresentation, and which goes against professional journalistic standards,” GPO chief Nitzan Chen said.Earlier this year, Moni interviewed former defense minister Amir Peretz, former foreign minister Tzipi Livni, Maj. Gen. (res.) MK Eyal Ben-Reuven and ex-Israeli solider Tomer Weinberg, telling them the footage would be broadcast on Italian television and the BBC in Britain and Al-Jazeera.The interviews were instead featured in a three-part documentary series documentary titled “What Happened in 2006” on al-Mayadeen, a television channel affiliated with Hezbollah to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the 34-day war between Israel and the Lebanese-based terror group.The head of the ANSA offices in Israel, Mossimo Lomokano told the Hebrew daily Yedioth Ahronoth that “ANSA never gave freelance journalist Michela Moni any assignment to interview any of the people interviewed for the piece on the events from 2006. Moni never told ANSA that he was doing these interviews. Moreover, ANSA has never published any interviews conducted by Moni regarding those events.”Meanwhile, Walid al-Omri, the head of Al Jazeera in Israel and the West Bank, also said in a statement to the daily that his network never requested the interviews.After the footage was aired, Moni told Yedioth Ahronoth on Tuesday that he too was misled, and claimed that a Palestinian producer in Jerusalem named Ahmed Barghouthi tricked him into accepting the task.“I also didn’t know that the interviews I was sent to do in Israel were intended for Hezbollah,” Moni told Yedioth. “When I realized that the Hezbollah channel broadcast the interviews and not Al Jazeera or the BBC, I understood that I had been used, and I came out looking like a liar to my interviewees.”Barghouti declined to speak with the Israeli daily.On Saturday, al-Mayadeen broadcast previously unreleased footage of Hezbollah fighters training for the attack that launched the 2006 Second Lebanon War.Three IDF soldiers were killed and two — First Sergeant Ehud Goldwasser and Sergeant Eldad Regev — were captured in the raid. Five more IDF soldiers were killed shortly thereafter in a failed Israeli rescue attempt.The broadcast is part of a three-episode documentary series commemorating the war’s 10th anniversary. It is seen in Israel as part of Hezbollah efforts to rehabilitate its image in Lebanon as the cause for the country’s suffering, both resulting from the 2006 war and due to its active participation in the Syria civil war in support of Iranian and Syrian regime forces.Weinberg, an IDF veteran who was wounded in 2006, told Yedioth earlier this week that he declined to be interviewed by Moni at first, citing his mental and physical health, but eventually agreed.“The Italian journalist didn’t give up and I eventually agreed to be interviewed. When he came to my home, he told me he was staying in Jerusalem and came to visit me especially ‘because the Italian people are extremely interested to hear your story, and it is important they hear the circumstances of the kidnapping,’” Weinberg said on Tuesday.During the hour-long interview, Moni urged him repeatedly to be filmed next to a photo from the 2006 ambush in which his comrades were abducted and killed, and he was injured. He refused. And the Hezbollah documentary distorted his account, making it seem like he abandoned his fellow soldiers, Weinberg maintained.“My friends shamed me because after all that I told the Italian journalist, they showed only a tiny part of it, which implies that I escaped from the vehicle and abandoned my friends. All at once, the memories from the incident came flooding back and I started to feel anxiety,” Weinberg said.“Since the film was shown, I have not been to work,” he told Yedioth.Spokespeople for Livni and Peretz said they were never informed they were being interviewed for al-Mayadeen. Former head of Military Intelligence Amos Yadlin also appears in the documentary, but told Yedioth he believed the filmmakers simply used old footage from his previous Israeli TV appearances.
Trump said to wonder ‘why US can’t use nuclear weapons’-Former CIA chief calls GOP nominee ‘inconsistent, unpredictable,’ traits that ‘frighten friends and tempt enemies’-By Times of Israel staff August 3, 2016, 6:17 pm
Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump reportedly asked an unnamed foreign policy adviser why the US couldn’t use nuclear weapons.MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough interviewed former CIA chief and National Security Agency director Michael Hayden Wednesday. During the interview, the reporter cited a foreign policy expert who had met with the Republican nominee.“Several months ago, a foreign policy expert on the international level went to advise Donald Trump. And three times [Trump] asked about the use of nuclear weapons. Three times. He asked at one point if we have them, why can’t we use them,” Scarborough said on Wednesday’s edition of “Morning Joe.”“That’s one of the reasons why he just doesn’t have foreign policy experts around him,” Scarborough remarked.In March, Trump appeared to advocate nuclear proliferation, saying that American allies such as Japan, South Korea and Saudi Arabia should develop nuclear weapons to deter other nuclear-armed countries.Watch: What are some major concerns about Trump's handling of national security? Hayden and #morningjoe weigh in. http://ift.tt/2aTicuf Morning Joe (@Morning_Joe) August 3, 2016-“You have so many countries already — China, Pakistan, you have so many countries, Russia — you have so many countries right now that have them,” Trump said in a Milwaukee, Wisconsin town hall televised by CNN. “Now, wouldn’t you rather, in a certain sense, have Japan have nuclear weapons when North Korea has nuclear weapons?”Asked how much time passed between the commander-in-chief ordering a nuclear strike and it being carried out, Hayden, who also served as head of the CIA under the George W. Bush administration, replied, “It’s scenario dependent, but the system is designed for speed and decisiveness. It’s not designed to debate the decision.”“He’s inconsistent,” Hayden said, explaining why he couldn’t cast a vote for Trump in the November election, “and when you’re the head of a global superpower, inconsistency, unpredictability, those are dangerous things. They frighten your friends and they tempt your enemies.”He said none of his peers were advising Trump.
Israeli police roll out body camera initiative-Project aims to increase public trust in the badge, provide key details in allegations of brutality; 150 officers to wear cameras in first stage of trial-By Times of Israel staff August 3, 2016, 8:36 pm
Israeli police officers will start wearing body cameras in a new trial across the country, as part of a wider effort to boost confidence in law enforcement officials.Unveiling the new initiative, Israel Police Commissioner Roni Alscheich and Public Security Minister Gilad Erdan said the first stage will involve 150 patrol officers and five teams of traffic cops donning the cameras. The measure will then be extended to all patrol officers in Israel.“I am sure that the project will strengthen public confidence in police and it will also moderate police behavior and also influence citizens’ treatment of police on the street,” said Erdan.The cameras will be in operation at all times, with the exception of cases involving sexual assault — when the alleged victim will not appear — in hospitals, schools or other sensitive institutions. The cameras will not be operational during public demonstrations.Alsheich said the initiative will help keep police officers and citizens alike in check.“Until now, everyone filmed the police and the police [officer] was the only one who didn’t film. Every video uploaded to the internet showed every possible perspective, except that which an officer saw when he or she exercised police authority. In order to evaluate a police officer’s behavior, that’s the only [perspective] that’s relevant.”According to the police, the cameras will be placed in a prominent location, so that Israelis are aware they are being recorded. The recordings will only be seen by authorized personnel. Steps will also be taken to ensure that the footage is not publicly released, unless a particular case justifies it.The Public Security Ministry has earmarked NIS 40 million (USD $10 million) for the project, the police said.The move to put cameras on cops came just a year after footage of police beating up an Ethiopian soldier, apparently unprovoked, sparked mass demonstrations nationwide against police brutality and systemic racism.In May, the Israel Police launched an initial investigation into the police beating of an Arab employee of a supermarket in Tel Aviv, an incident which was documented by several eyewitnesses to the alleged attack, including with photos and video. The police have said the man, identified as Maysam Abu Alqian, 19, from Hura in the Negev, was resisting arrest and attacked officers after they asked him for identification. Another employee who came to Alqian’s aid was also accused of attacking officers.

The cameras will not be operational during public demonstrations.Alsheich said the initiative will help keep police officers and citizens alike in check.“Until now, everyone filmed the police and the police [officer] was the only one who didn’t film. Every video uploaded to the internet showed every possible perspective, except that which an officer saw when he or she exercised police authority. In order to evaluate a police officer’s behavior, that’s the only [perspective] that’s relevant.”According to the police, the cameras will be placed in a prominent location, so that Israelis are aware they are being recorded. The recordings will only be seen by authorized personnel. Steps will also be taken to ensure that the footage is not publicly released, unless a particular case justifies it.The Public Security Ministry has earmarked NIS 40 million (USD $10 million) for the project, the police said.The move to put cameras on cops came just a year after footage of police beating up an Ethiopian soldier, apparently unprovoked, sparked mass demonstrations nationwide against police brutality and systemic racism.In May, the Israel Police launched an initial investigation into the police beating of an Arab employee of a supermarket in Tel Aviv, an incident which was documented by several eyewitnesses to the alleged attack, including with photos and video. The police have said the man, identified as Maysam Abu Alqian, 19, from Hura in the Negev, was resisting arrest and attacked officers after they asked him for identification. Another employee who came to Alqian’s aid was also accused of attacking officers.
