1. 'Not Everything Has a Solution'
by Maayana Miskin 
Trying to force a solution to Israel's conflict with the Palestinian Authority and Hamas would be dangerous, Minister of Economics Naftali Bennett warned in a new interview with Arutz Sheva.
"In Oslo, they thought they had found a solution to an intractable problem… When they tried to force a solution, it led to more than 1,000 people being killed," he said, referring to Israeli victims of PA terrorism in the years that followed the Oslo Accords.
"We have to understand that not everything has a solution. There's a tendency towards 'solutionizing,' and – no. Not everything can be solved," he stated.
"We're in a complex neighborhood. Iran is taking over the field. There's Syria, Lebanon and Gaza, and only Israel cuts through that Islamic crescent.
"What makes our lives here possible can be summed up in two words, 'Be strong.' Be economically strong, be strong in values. If we will be strong, we will survive here," he declared.
Bennett confirmed that the government is heading toward negotiations with the PA. "Let them talk as much as they want. When they bring peace in a basket, then we'll talk," he said.
"We knew what government we were getting into. In the opposition we would have had no influence," he said.
The planned negotiations will have limits meant to protect Israel, he continued, "The parameters here are that we are not paying any price just to negotiate, and that negotiations on various issues will be simultaneous. Not borders first, then recognition of Israel as a Jewish state."
Unlike MK Danny Danon, Bennett said he believes Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu means what he has said about the "two-state solution." Netanyahu thinks the least bad option for Israel is an unarmed PA-led Arab state alongside Israel, he explained. "He thinks there will ultimately be a solution."
Bennett has suggested his own plan, a "calming plan" rather than a peace plan, aimed at "allowing us to live with the conflict." Part of the plan is the annexation of Area C, the part of Judea and Samaria under Israeli control, and the granting of citizenship to the 40,000 Arabs in the area.

2. U.S. Senate Passes Immigration Reform
by Elad Benari 
In a vote hailed by U.S. President Barack Obama, the Senate on Thursday passed comprehensive immigration reform that would put 11 million undocumented people on a path to earning citizenship, AFP reports.
Chants of "Yes we did!" erupted from the public galleries after senators voted 68-32 to approve the landmark legislation, which pours unprecedented resources into border security, revamps legal immigration and requires a 13-year wait before those without papers can apply to become U.S. citizens.
Fourteen Republicans joined a unanimous Democratic side in what Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid deemed a historic vote.
As Vice President Joe Biden presided over the chamber, Reid took the rare move of calling on members to cast votes from their Senate desks.
"We've taken giant steps forward towards solving our immigration problem today," an elated Senator Chuck Schumer, one of the four Democrats who crafted the bill with four Republicans in the so-called "Gang of 8," told reporters, according to AFP.
The measure now faces a rocky road in the Republican-led House of Representatives, but Schumer and Republican Gang of 8 Senator John McCain made a direct appeal to their colleagues on the other side of the U.S. Capitol: work with us to achieve the most important immigration reform in a quarter century.
"To our friends in the House, we ask for your consideration, and we stand ready to sit down and negotiate with you," McCain said, according to AFP.
"We may have different views on different aspects of this issue but we should all of us here have the same goal, and that is to take 11 million people out of the shadows, secure our borders, and make sure this is a nation of opportunity and freedom," he added.
Obama welcomed the Senate vote and urged the House to follow suit.
"Today, with a strong bipartisan vote, the United States Senate delivered for the American people, bringing us a critical step closer to fixing our broken immigration system once and for all," Obama said.
The president warned the bill's supporters to "keep a watchful eye" on efforts to scupper reform, saying "now is the time when opponents will try their hardest to pull this bipartisan effort apart."
The bill's authors spent months crafting the 1,000-plus-page document, which pours $46 billion into border security and other efforts, including electronic employment verification and a modernized entry-exit system.
It requires immigrants to pass background checks, pay fees, fines and back taxes, learn English, gain employment, and as Reid said, "stay out of trouble."
The bill was debated for three weeks on the Senate floor and dozens of amendments were added as Republicans squared off against one another over the merits of the legislation.
Obama hopes to sign immigration reform into law this year, but several House Republicans have said the bill will be dead in the water without significant changes, particularly on border security.
Opponents have said the bill is too costly, or argue that loopholes will prevent authorities from gaining full operational control of the border before the citizenship process begins.

3. US Ex-General May Have Leaked News of Iran Cyber Attack
by Maayana Miskin 
A retired United States general and former vice chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff is under investigation for allegedly leaking details related to the Stuxnet virus that hit Iran in 2010, NBC reports.
Retired Marine general James Cartwright is reportedly being questioned over allegations that he provided reporters with information about Stuxnet.
Cartwright was informed that he was being investigated by the Justice Department. No decision has been made on prosecuting him.
Stuxnet was reportedly a U.S.-directed cyber attack on Iran's nuclear program. Israel reportedly played a part in developing the Stuxnet worm.
The program became public when it moved beyond Iran's nuclear plant network and began affecting other countries.
Last year the New York Times reported that Cartwright was behind previous cyber attacks on Iran, as part of a program dubbed "Olympic Games." U.S. President Barack Obama reportedly ordered the Stuxnet attack.
Since Stuxnet, Iran has been hit by the Flame virus, which computer experts dubbed "the most sophisticated cyber-weapon yet unleashed."

4. Doctor: Here's Why Mohammed al-Dura Really Died
by Maayana Miskin 
The Israeli doctor who won a libel suit victory in the Mohammed al-Dura case regrets that he was unable to help French media analyst Philippe Karsenty to do the same.
Dr. Yehuda David won his case in France's Supreme Court in 2012 after being accused of libel for revealing that Jamal Al-Dura, Mohammed al-Dura's father, had lied. Karsenty lost his own Supreme Court case this week, and was convicted of defamation for accusing French state television of deliberately staging the hoax.
In an interview with Arutz Sheva, David repeated his assertion that the Mohammed al-Dura shooting video was fake, and revealed what he believes was the child's real cause of death.
"Mohammed al-Dura's father assisted Israel. Hamas murdered one of his children. Then they demanded that he bring a different son – Rami al-Dura – and make it look like IDF soldiers were murdering him," he declared.
"That child who was supposedly killed by the IDF is alive to this day," he added.
David has previously noted that Mohammed al-Dura is on record as having been admitted to a Gaza hospital several hours prior to the alleged shooting involving the IDF.
He expressed regret that he had not been present to help Karsenty in his libel suit. David explained his own winning strategy when facing France's highest court.
"It's a totally political trial. That's why in my trial I fled from politics and focused on scientific proofs based on medical documents," he recalled.
After an initial conviction by a lower court, "I changed my strategy and focused on the science. That was Karsenty's mistake, that he waged a political war with a political court," David asserted.
He expressed regret that he had not been called to testify on Karsenty's behalf, as the doctor who proved in court that Jamal al-Dura's supposed bullet wound scars were actually scars from surgery performed by an Israeli doctor – himself.
"That was [Karsenty's] fatal mistake, that he didn't use me. He had a winning card, I introduced him at one point to the man who was commander at the IDF position, his testimony was also golden – but he decided to go it alone, and that is why it didn't work," he said.
While he was not a part of the Karsenty trial, he still may be part of its aftermath, David revealed. "I will read up on the verdict, and if necessary I will raise the banners again" and go back to France to defend Israel, he explained.
"It is completely unacceptable that any country accuse us of murdering a child when we didn't do it," he concluded.

5. Video: Zionist Volunteers Face Arson
by Gil Ronen 
Volunteers from the 'New Israeli Guardians' (Hashomer Hachadash) organization assisted Jewish Galilee farmers in putting out a blaze in pasture lands. The blaze was set by Arabs who regularly attack the Jewish farmers, out of greed and nationalistic motivation.
Volunteers at Mitzpe Tzipori identified an arson attack at about 8:00 p.m. Monday. The fire began spreading in pasture land next to the village of Rumat Alhib.
The volunteers called fire fighters and helped them take control of the blaze.
However, 40 out of 50 dunams of pasture land were reportedly completely annihilated. Another arson attack took place near Mitzpe Sando (Tzipori) last week.
Hashomer Hachadash seeks volunteers to help safeguard Jewish land from attacks by Muslims.
Video is by the New Israeli Guardians.
The new Israeli guardians were founded by Yoel Zilberman and others, in response to the plight of farmers under attack from Arabs. Zilberman presented the group's goals in an address that has received numerous views. Its text appears in this link.

6. Outrage over 'Pro-Israel' Zombie Apocalypse Film
by Maayana Miskin 
A Hollywood blockbuster depicting a worldwide zombie apocalypse has become yet more fuel for the fire in the debate on Israel. According to many PA supporters, the film's depiction of Israel as one of the few countries on earth not immediately overwhelmed by zombies indicates a clear pro-Israel bias.
The movie stars actor Brad Pitt as a United Nations employee, Gerry Lane, who joins in the fight against a major zombie pandemic that has killed most of the world's population.
Pro-PA viewers were particularly upset by a scene showing zombie hordes being slowed by a massive wall around Israel. They pointed out that the scene appears to justify the Judea and Samaria security barrier.
"In World War Z, Israel's apartheid wall apparently helps keep out a massive horde of zombies... not cool," one upset Twitter user said.
Other viewers, however, interpreted the depiction of the barrier as ironic commentary. Israel's real Judea and Samaria separation barrier was built to prevent Palestinian Authority resident suicide bombers from reaching Israeli cities, but in the film both Israeli Jews and PA Muslims take shelter behind the wall.
They pointed out that the film does not necessarily portray the anti-zombie barrier as helpful to Israel's defense.
It should be noted that Israel's current security barrier is in most places a fence rather than a wall, and is not always effective in keeping out illegal entrants. The portions that are made of a concrete wall are significantly shorter and weaker than the barrier depicted in the movie, and would probably not prove a significant obstacle to World War Z's superfast zombies.

7. Soldier Killed in Fall from Train
by Maayana Miskin 
A 19-year-old soldier was killed Thursday in a fall from a train. The cause of the accident is not yet clear.
He had apparently been hanging from the outside of the train, possibly after attempting to get back on the train after getting off. At some point he fell, and was pulled under the train and killed.
Police initially believed the young man had committed suicide, but now believe the death was a tragic accident.
Military police are attempting to determine whether the young man may have attempted to reenter the train after realizing that he had left his bag and his weapon on board when he got off in Ashdod.

8. Gantz: The Flames Are Creeping Up on Nasrallah
by Elad Benari 
The graduation ceremony of the IAF's 166th flight course took place on Thursday, and leaders who spoke at the ceremony mentioned the tense situation along Israel's northern borders, saying that the IDF is ready for any scenario and reminding Israel's enemies that the army has acted and will act in the face of security threats.
Particularly blunt was IDF Chief of Staff Benny Gantz who, in a rare statement about the situation in the north said, "Syria is still bleeding, and in Lebanon, the flames are creeping up on [Hizbullah chief] Nasrallah. In the face of this changing reality we need to be ready and more prepared than ever."
Gantz's remarks come in the wake of an Israeli assessment that the Hizbullah terror group is at one of its lowest points in years. The organization is now fighting on three fronts: against Israel, in Syria, and in Lebanon, where the group has been slammed for its support of President Bashar Al-Assad.
Speaking at the same ceremony, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu said, "The Air Force is prepared for any mission, near or far, and those who need to know that we not only talk but also act - know that. Over the past year we worked on many fronts, some visible and some hidden. In all of them, the mission was accomplished by the IAF pilots and navigators."
The prime minister added, "We have defensive capabilities and offensive capabilities and we know to how to combine them. The future of the Jews depends on the Jewish State, and the future of the Jewish State depends primarily on its army and security forces."
The commander of the IAF, Major General Amir Eshel, said at the ceremony, "The reality has forced many things on us over the past year, most of them distant and out of sight. The IAF must be ready for any mission. We do not have a second chance."
Defense Minister Moshe Yaalon spoke about the situation in Iran and told the young pilots, "You and your friends must be prepared for that moment when you will be required to apply your skills and hurt those who want to disrupt our lives here. Those who work tirelessly to arm themselves, transfer dangerous weapons through air, land and sea or build long-term unconventional capability which threatens our cities and our citizens and undermines the stability of the entire Middle East."

You may have already noticed how the signaling letter pair that transforms to 33 are often connected or graphically called out as being paired in some way. 
The Emmy awards are about Emmy, pronounced, M E, ME. The awards are SELF promoting. I imagine this would have to be an insider joke. Adding a supporting layer to the homonym of the spelling of ME, the double m in Emmy presents another instance of the same kind of encoding, paired letters resembling 3 - Code 33. 
James Bond's superior at MI6 is called M, or EM. Both are signaling. 
The folks at Mighty Mouse Music clearly get the MM Code 33 thing. "Here I come to save the day!" is the Mighty Mouse cartoon cry familiar to those of us who grew up watching him on TV. Here comes Horus, but that salvation is NOT what you want! 
Then, there's 
Me to We. Yikes! The WE bit is a lot like the self promotion Code 33 signaling ME bit. 
WestWorld. If you haven't seen this old movie you might be surprised at what it reveals. We build androids for entertainment and pleasure. They kill us. Beast and mark of the beast symbolism wrapped in MK-ULTRA mind-control programming symbolism. The West and "Go West young man" theme is a "become homosexual" meme and a symbol of taking the left hand path. Code 33. 
Living on the Edge. EE=33. For support, "FREE" adds another pair, without emphasis. Big Orange anal sun. ON. Stars. 2CW branding: C has the value of 3 and W rotates to produce a 3, but I'm getting ahead of myself. 
The attending symbol of the XBox sun god X is Osiris green and an Eye of Horus. The letter B is a familiar form, a male package, with phallus inserted between the legs of the X. Two Xs ~ pyramid base and capstone.
