Arab Filmmakers to Celebrate Genocide - Jonathan S. Tobin (Commentary) A Qatar-based production company is slated to start filming next month of a multi-millionaire dollar television series focused on the the slaughter of Jewish men, women, and children in Khaiber. This sad chapter of history is little known in the West even among Jews but it is familiar to Muslims who, even today, use the phrase “Khaiber” as a battle cry to rally opposition to Israel and as an indication of their desired fate for the Jews who live in the Middle East today. As per H.N. - Not since Hitler's Nazi film, "Jud Suss," has their been such an anti-Semitic film on the horizon as this one that celebrates the genocide of Jews at Khaiber that will be made by Arab filmmakers. Israelis make films that are sympathetic to the the Arabs like "Five Broken Cameras" while the Arabs make movies that glorify the murder of Jews. Israel has no partners for peace, and the world must come to understand this.

The UN’s willful ignorance of modern-day slavery - Tom Gross  (National Post) The UN Human Rights Council (UNHRC) begins its annual session in Geneva today by once again disgracing itself through the appointment of the West African country of Mauritania as its vice-president for the next year. Mauritania is a modern-day slave-owning nation! Nowhere is slavery still so systematically practiced as in Mauritania.There are an estimated 800,000 slaves in the country.

Israel's Challenging Diplomatic Predicament - Dore Gold (Israel Hayom) In light of developments over the last few years, there has been a growing realization in Israel that the chances of reaching a complete final status agreement with the Palestinians are presently extremely small. ... Thus Israel finds itself in a paradoxical situation: just as international pressures are increasing for it to make new concessions in order to restart and advance the political process, there is growing realization in Israel that the kind of final status agreement that the international community is hoping will be concluded is not about to happen. The Palestinian side knows this as well.

Africa
 The Islamist Challenge from the Sahel Region and North Africa - Col. (ret.) Dr. Jacques Neriah (Institute for Contemporary Affairs-Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs)    The states surrounding Mali understood the region-wide Islamist threat and supported France's military intervention. This includes the backing of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) led by Nigeria. Moreover, Algeria let French aircraft fly through its airspace in order to engage the jihadists and halt their offensive on the ground in Mali. The anti-Western jihadi groups will probably try to retaliate, though not necessarily in the Sahel region. Rather, with the human infrastructure they have in Europe, the U.S., South America and West Africa, the choice of possible targets presents a huge challenge for all intelligence services involved in homeland security.

Here is Fathi Shihab-Eddim's, a senior Morsi advisor, Holocaust denial posted on an official Muslim Brotherhood web site:  The myth of the Holocaust is an industry that America invented. U.S. intelligence agencies in cooperation with their counterparts in allied nations during World War II created it to destroy the image of their opponents in Germany, and to justify war and massive destruction against military and civilian facilities of the Axis powers, and especially to hit “Hiroshima and Nagasaki” with the atomic bomb.   Oh yeah, this guy is responsible for appointing editors to Egypt’s state-run newspapers.

France at War Against Global Jihad - Freddy Eytan (Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs) Paris practices a double standard of morality, condemning Israel's retaliatory acts against Hamas or Hizbullah, while seeing fit to act against terrorists thousands of kilometers from its own territory. One should commend France's determined fight against global terror. But the time has come for sober internalization of the fact that the Islamic terrorists in Mali and the terrorists in Gaza, Sinai, or Lebanon belong to the same family and must.

Iran
Iran, Syria and North Korea Developing Biological Weapons- Jill Bellamy van Aalst, Clare Lopez and Reza Kahlili (Washington Times)  Among the more than 16 biological agents that Iran reportedly is developing are anthrax, Ebola, encephalitis, biological toxins, severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), cholera, smallpox and plague.     Worse yet, Iran, with North Korea's help, has genetically altered the smallpox virus in ways that may make current vaccinations ineffective.
Former Iranian Diplomat: "Iran Would Definitely Use Nuclear Weapons on Israel"  (Jerusalem Post) "The [Iranian] regime thinks that if it has several atom bombs, it will grant it an insurance policy.... They believe that the world would treat them the way it treats North Korea."
Hizbullah and the Qods Force in Iran's Shadow War with the West - Matthew Levitt (Washington Institute for Near East Policy) Iranian leaders appear committed to a policy of targeting Western interests, not only in places where countermeasures may be comparatively underdeveloped (e.g., Azerbaijan, Bulgaria, India, Georgia, Thailand) but, if opportunities present themselves, even in world capitals like Washington, D.C.

 Hamas' Talibanization of Gaza - Khaled Abu Toameh (Gatestone Institute)  Hamas is well aware that its campaign enjoys the support and sympathy of most Palestinians, not only in Gaza but also in the West Bank. What is happening in Gaza is one of the by-products of the Arab Spring, which has seen the rise of Islamists to power. Foreign activists who continue to arrive in Gaza to voice solidarity with Hamas need to know that they are complicit in the effort to establish a repressive and brutal entity that has no respect for freedoms and despises Western culture and values.

Yahoo Runs Deceiving Photo with Reuters Article  (CAMERA) WARNING: READER BEWARE! YAHOO IS NOT A TRUSTWORTHY SOURCE OF INFORMATION! A Reuters article was posted yesterday on yahoo.com,with the headline "Israel Hits Target in Syria Border Area: Sources" under which was posted a large photo of children carrying a dead body.
