Obama Admin orders labelling of Israeli goods

A memo issued earlier this month by the Obama administration directs the U.S. “trade community” and government partner agencies to explicitly label Israeli-made goods that have been produced in the West Bank.

The Jan. 23 directive states that it is “not acceptable” to label goods coming from Israeli companies in the West Bank and Gaza Strip as having been produced in “Israel.”

The order comes amid an effort by the European Union to label Israeli-made goods, a move the Israeli government called anti-Israel and that prominent anti-Semitism watchdog groups have condemned as among the worst incidents of anti-Semitism in 2015.

Plus this week the usual insults between Netanyahu and Ban Ki Moon took a very different turn. Usually Ban Ki Moon will say something about Israel and Netanyahu will respond. Done. Not this week. Netanyahu responded but Ban Ki Moon also came back with another attack and on and on.

ref. post #3

Spain 'deeply worried' over Palestinian deaths from Israel's use of force

Issachar 'deeply worried' over Israeli deaths from Palestinian's use of force.


The rest of the sentence (underline mine):

Spain’s government expressed “deep concern at the loss of many dozens of lives” of Palestinians as a result of Israel’s “use of force” in response to attacks against its (Israel's) citizens.

As one can tell from the rest of the article, mankind is very practiced at the art of complicating his existence. Imho, it's enough to make one dizzy trying to keep up with all that is happening.

Continuing same article:

Earlier this week, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu accused UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon of justifying Palestinian terrorism when he said about these attacks that, “As oppressed peoples have demonstrated throughout the ages, it is human nature to react to occupation, which often serves as a potent incubator of hate and extremism.”

Two points here: 1.) There is no occupation and 2.) People's bad behavior comes from the sin nature they're born with; comes from within.
