[The author is a former member of Irgun, a hero of the 1948 war, a former member of Knesset, and is today Israel’s leading peace activist

WHEN A high-ranking official of one country calls the leader of another country “chickenshit”, it may be assumed that the relations between the two countries are not at their best. In fact, they may be considered somewhat less than cordial.

Netanyahu Implies Threat to Assassinate Obama in Recent Speech?

Given the reference to a “grassy knoll” in a recent speech from Israel PM Netanyahu, as noted below by writer Raimondo, we hope Mr Obam's Secret Secret security arrangements are in much better shape than they were when another head of the Secret Service was in charge up to a few weeks ago:

“The famously combative Israeli Prime Minister went on to say:

I think this is an excellent essay on the state of voting and voters in the election coming up. I find political ads offensive, ads in general come to that and mute the sound, maybe you do the same.

This also explains I think how people like Louie Gohmert or Steve King, or Ted Cruz remain in office.

GOP-led Purge Threat to 3.5 Million Voters

Election officials in 27 states, most of them Republicans, have launched a program that threatens a massive purge of voter rolls, especially targeting minority voters.

Al Jazeera America has obtained 2.1 million names from the target lists,  kept confidential until now.  Experts reviewing the lists conclude it is suspiciously over-weighted with Black, Hispanic and Asian-American voters.

Infectious Disease Experts Argue: ‘Ebola Virus Could Be an Aerosol-Transmissable Disease’

Healthcare workers should be equipped with air-purifying respirators because “patients and procedures generate aerosols, and Ebola virus remains viable in aerosols for up to 90 minutes,” they noted.
