Referendum Vote In Turkey Fuels Uneasiness In Israel
Post Date: 2010-09-15 19:41:41 by Brian S
0 Comments
Tel Aviv - A resounding victory at the polls Sunday for Turkish Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan's referendum to remake the country's constitution and weaken the secular forces in government has spurred Israeli uneasiness about deteriorating ties with an important regional ally. Though the referendum was about advancing civil liberties in Turkey and weakening the influence of the secular army, the wider-than-expected margin of victory was also seen as a broad approval of Erdogan's foreign policy shift toward Israel. After years of cozy strategic ties, Erdogan upset Israelis with his criticism of the war against Hamas, and with his backing for a protest flotilla that hurt ...

Israel analysts see Turkey radicalizing, becoming 'Iran No. 2'

TEL AVIV — Israel's defense community has assessed that Turkey was moving toward becoming a radical and nuclear Islamic state. Officials and leading analysts asserted that the government of Prime Minister Recep Erdogan was rapidly dismantling the secular Turkish state. They said Erdogan could turn Turkey into another Iran, a radical Muslim state with nuclear weapons. "There could be a deep strategic change," Amos Gilad, a senior Defense Ministry official, said. Officials cited Turkey's referendum that would revise the secular constitution. They said the 26 amendments approved by 58 percent of voters on Sept. 12 would significantly increase the authority of ...

MOSCOW (AP) -- Russia and Norway signed an agreement Wednesday on their maritime border in the energy-rich Barents Sea, ending a dispute that has dragged on for decades. Russian President Dmitry Medvedev and Norwegian Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg said after the signing that the deal would strengthen stability in the region and enhance economic cooperation between the two neighbors. "We have been trying to reach this agreement for 40 years," Medvedev said after his talks with Stoltenberg in Russia's Arctic port of Murmansk. "It will turn a new page in our relations. Delineating the border in the region where our interests meet is a key step forward." Stoltenberg ...

ISLAMABAD (AP) -- Pakistan's intelligence services are willing to work more closely with Afghanistan to fight Taliban militants, the president said Wednesday after talks with the Afghan leader focussed on allegations Islamabad is harboring Afghan insurgents. Afghan President Hamid Karzai made a veiled reference to the existence of terrorist hideouts on the Pakistani side of their shared border. He said he and President Asif Ali Zardari had discussed ways to tackle the sanctuaries and training grounds, but did not say whether anything had been agreed. "The reality is that they (the militants) must have a base somewhere," he said. "Those who are attacking us in ...

Japan intervenes in currency market to weaken yen

TOKYO (AP) -- Japan made a surprise foray into currency markets Wednesday to reverse the yen's ascent, which has been bad for companies like Toyota and Sony that are critical to the country's economy. Relieved investors sent Japanese stock prices up 2.3 percent after news of the Bank of Japan's market intervention came out. Shares of Japanese exporters jumped and the yen fell 3 percent or more against major currencies including the dollar, euro and British pound. It was the yen's biggest one-day move against the dollar since the fall of 2008, at the height of the financial crisis. Japanese officials would not provide a figure for how much yen the central bank sold in the ...

VIENNA (AP) -- A U.S. envoy accused Iran on Wednesday of intimidating U.N. nuclear inspectors in an effort to influence their findings - a move he said may lead to "appropriate action," from the International Atomic Energy Agency. Britain, France and Germany also criticized Iran for its decision to ban several inspectors in a toughly worded statement also critical of Tehran for ignoring U.N. Security Council demands to stop nuclear activities that could be used to make weapons. "Iran is pursuing ... programs which have no credible peaceful purposes," said the statement to the IAEA's 35-nation board, delivered by French chief delegate Florence Mangin. "The only ...

Cuba criticizes Obama for keeping embargo

HAVANA (AP) -- Cuba's foreign minister said Wednesday that President Barack Obama has missed a golden opportunity to improve relations, lamenting that nearly two years after he offered an olive branch to America's traditional foes, the U.S. leader has "not lived up to expectations." In a yearly speech on the cost of America's 48-year trade embargo, which Cuba refers to as a "blockade," Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez said Obama had actually increased enforcement of the embargo since taking over from President George W. Bush, who had a more outwardly hardline policy toward the island. "The policy of the blockade under President Obama ... hasn't ...

CANCUN, Mexico (AP) -- A strong Tropical Storm Karl made landfall on Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula on Wednesday, hitting a sparsely populated stretch of Caribbean coast, while two powerful hurricanes roared further out in the Atlantic. Karl made landfall about 30 miles (50 kilometers) up the coast from the Quintana Roo state capital of Chetumal, with winds of about 65 mph (100 kph), according to the U.S. National Hurricane Center in Miami. The storm hit about midway between the cruise ship port of Majahual and the coastal town of Xcalak. Violeta Pineda, who has operated thatch-roof bungalows known as the Hotel Kabah Na for 13 years, said waves were rolling about 25 yards (meters) onto ...

PARIS (AP) -- President Nicolas Sarkozy's government fired back Wednesday at European Commission criticism of France's crackdown on Gypsies, or Roma, saying some of the complaints are unacceptable. A day earlier, EU Justice Commissioner Viviane Reding had called France's expulsions of Roma to Eastern Europe "a disgrace" - as well as something she "thought that Europe would not have to witness again after the second World War." The exchange heightened tensions between France and the European Union a day before a summit of EU leaders Thursday in Brussels and forced the European Commission president to go into damage control, saying Reding had not meant to ...

No deal: Mideast round ends amid fresh violence

JERUSALEM (AP) -- A mortar attack by Palestinian militants and airstrikes by Israel formed the grim backdrop as Mideast leaders ended their latest round of peace talks Wednesday, still divided on major issues. There was no word on when they would meet again. The inconclusive U.S.-brokered talks between Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas left in doubt the prospects for their new effort to end generations of hostilities in the region and create a sovereign Palestine alongside a secure Israel. George Mitchell, the U.S. envoy for Mideast peace efforts, emerged from an evening session to say the talks had been encouraging but had fallen short of ...

The Wall Street Journal reports the White House will officially notify Congress in the next two weeks of a $60 billion deal to sell Saudi Arabia dozens of U.S.-made fighter jets and military helicopters. If it goes ahead, the sale of some 84 new F-15 jets and dozens of helicopter will be the largest U.S. arms deal ever. The Obama administration is pitching the sale as a major opportunity to create new jobs for the beleaguered American economy. Companies including Boeing, Northrop Grumman, Lockheed Martin and General Electric say more than 75,000 jobs could be created to build the new aircraft. According to The Journal's sources, who remained anonymous, negotiations are also ...

TEHRAN (FNA)- Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad described the plan of a Florida evangelical church for burning Muslims' divine book on the 9/11 anniversary as "a Zionist plot" that will accelerate the collapse of the Zionists. President Ahmadinejad said Friday that Florida Pastor Terry Jones' plans to torch Quran was a "Zionist plot, and against the teachings of all divine prophets." "The Zionists and their supporters are on the path to collapse and decline and such desperate actions will not save them, but will accelerate their fall and annihilation," Ahmadinejad said during a meeting between Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali ...

TEHRAN, Iran — A senior Iranian prosecutor said Sunday that authorities will release a jailed American woman on $500,000 bail because of health problems, another sudden about-face by Iran in a case that has added to tension with the United States. The news came during a weekend of start-and-stop announcements about the release of Sarah Shourd, who was detained with two friends, Shane Bauer and Josh Fattal, along the Iran-Iraq border on July 31, 2009, and accused of spying. The woman's Iranian lawyer met with the three Americans in Tehran's Evin prison on Sunday and said that he is hopeful Shourd will be released in the next two or three days.

BRUSSELS — The former Belgian bishop who resigned in April after admitting he sexually abused a nephew for years said Saturday he would go into hiding to assess his future, despite calls for him to leave the church immediately. Roger Vangheluwe said in a statement he would immediately leave an abbey in his bishopry of Bruges, where he has been staying since his April 23 resignation. His bishopry has urged him to seek another place to live, and several victims of sexual abuse by clergy as well as a prominent senator have called on him to leave the church as an institution. Vangheluwe gave no response to the calls for him to step out of priesthood, but said that "as of today, I ...

BERLIN — As a youth in the 1950s, the film director Volker Schlöndorff tried to hide his German origins by learning to speak unaccented French. This summer, his daughter painted German flags on her cheeks and joined crowds of thousands on the Kurfürstendamm, a historic avenue, waving their black, red and gold banners to celebrate the country’s World Cup victories. Elena Schlöndorff confessed that she never watched her father’s Academy Award-winning adaptation of “The Tin Drum,” Günter Grass’s World War II epic, until a new director’s cut was released earlier this year. She had little interest in the Nazi era. “I don’t really ...

A federal judge has set bail at $1 million for the chief executive of a labor recruiting company accused of importing and exploiting 400 workers from Thailand. Forty-five-year-old Mordechai Orian, head of Los Angeles-based Global Horizons Manpower Inc., was ordered Wednesday to be held in federal custody until he can raise the money.

Orian is accused in what the FBI calls the largest human-trafficking case charged in U.S. history. He was indicted last week on charges that he lured the workers with false promises of ...

As a scientist I'm certain Stephen Hawking is wrong. You can't explain the universe without God [Full Thread]

There's no denying that Stephen Hawking is intellectually bold as well as physically heroic. And in his latest book, the renowned physicist mounts an audacious challenge to the traditional religious belief in the divine creation of the universe. According to Hawking, the laws of physics, not the will of God, provide the real explanation as to how life on Earth came into being. The Big Bang, he argues, was the inevitable consequence of these laws 'because there is a law such as gravity, the universe can and will create itself from nothing.' Unfortunately, while Hawking's argument is being hailed as controversial and ground-breaking, it is hardly new. For years, other ...
