  Not a new dawn: Why the Israel-Sudan deal was a long time coming By Yotam Gidron -October 30, 2020 With U.S. backing, Israel has long bribed Khartoum into cooperating on regional policy. Normalization is the latest stage in that history. The normalization of relations between Israel and Sudan, publicly announced on Oct. 23, has been on the horizon for several years now. News reports from the past weeks have consistently portrayed the normalization deal as a story about a staunch enemy of Israel abandoning its old ways and turning into a friend. The Khartoum Summit of 1967, in which Arab leaders called for “no peace with Israel, no recognition of Israel, and no negotiation with Israel,” has been repeatedly invoked by commentators to support this narrative.

  One of the Chagos Islands - Diego Garcia - is home to a US military base Mauritian PM calls out UK & US duplicity, revives colonial row over evicted Chagos islanders by aletho RT | October 19, 2020 Mauritian Prime Minister Pravind Jugnauth has slammed the UK and US for their mistreatment of the Chagossian people, evicted from their homeland by the British in the 1960s and 1970s so that the US could use it as a military base. Speaking on Sunday in the Mauritian capital of Port Louis, the PM lamented how the British and Americans acted when they evicted thousands of people from their homeland on the Chagos Archipelago in the Indian Ocean. When we hear the British and Americans talking on the international stage, they teach lessons. They criticize. The English and the Americans are hypocrites. Mauritius and the Chagos Islands were ceded to Britain in 1814 after the defeat of French Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte. The British government later purchased Chagos from Mauritius in 1965, ...

 Demigods and the Birth of Noah The Sons of Elohim sleeping with women and producing demigods (Gen 6:1-4) is sandwiched between the birth of Noah and the flood. This juxtaposition of passages prompted 1 Enoch and Genesis Apocryphon to question whether Lamech was Noah's father or whether Noah was a demigod. Personal note from the editors: We are honored to share with you Dr. Rabbi Samuel Z. Glaser z”l’s final piece for TheTorah.com.

  There is no legitimacy except through elections - someone who was chased after a position he obtained with the quota. Hatem Babiker Awad Al-Karim Mahel. # What is the problem for him to resign or replace a wali or even the prime minister as long as he is not elected by the people and won the position with partisan quotas and regional balances in accordance with the document produced by the initiative of Ethiopia and the African Union - the insistence of Abdo Rabbo Mansour Hadi in Yemen on the position he acquired through the Gulf initiative and ignoring the texts and compromises The Constitution Committee pushed the alliance of Ali Abdullah Saleh and Ansar Allah to use forces as long as Hadi refused to appeal to the elections according to the outputs of the Constitution Committee.
