Israel Issues Warning To Citizens To Immediately Leave Sinai Peninsula, "Terror Attack Imminent"

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Are things between Israel and Egypt about to get really heated?

From BNO News:

JERUSALEM (BNO NEWS) -- Israel's anti-terror bureau warned on Tuesday that a terror attack in Egypt's Sinai Peninsula is imminent and all Israelis must leave the region. The warning message said, quoting intelligence sources, that a terror attack in which Israelis could be kidnapped is imminent, Israeli media reported.  "We call on all Israelis now in Sinai to leave at once and return to Israel," the warning said. "Families of Israelis now in Sinai are requested to make contact and update them of this travel warning."

More from Sky News:

Israel has issued an "urgent" warning to its citizens to leave Egypt's Sinai Peninsula immediately.

It comes after "concrete evidence" of an expected terror attempt to kidnap Israelis in the region.

The warning was issued by the Israeli prime minister's office.

It took the unusual step of calling on families of Israelis touring the Sinai to contact them.

Israel's anti-terror office has a standard travel advisory telling Israelis to stay out of the Sinai desert because of the threat of terror attacks.

However, thousands of Israelis routinely ignore the warning and go on holiday in the desert and along its Red Sea coast.

Egyptian security officials said about 35,000 Israelis are in the Sinai now, and they expected thousands more to arrive later this month.

In the unusually strong statement, the Israeli anti-terror office called "on all Israelis residing in Sinai to leave immediately and return home".

Families of Israelis residing in Sinai are being asked to contact them and update them on the travel warning.

In 2004, suicide bombers attacked Egypt's Taba Hilton Hotel, just across the Israeli border, and several campsites where Israelis are known to stay on holiday.

Dozens of people were killed and hundreds wounded.

Israel controlled the Sinai from its capture in the 1967 war until returning it to Egypt in 1982 in the framework of a peace treaty between the two nations.

and so it has begun?  melodramatic much?  these statements are put by governments all the time.  not saying its not false flag or whatever, but i hardly think it is the start of Armageddon.

Melodramatic ? Think not, given that Netanyahu said himself that he will, and i cite "Bring the whole world down.." before he will allow anything to happen to Israel. And I do not think he was exaggerating when he said it. Remember "Never again" they said almost 70 years ago when they put a spin that Israel=Judaism=Semitism.

Welcome to the "new" Zero Hedge, which at times can quickly devolve into name calling and shouting as the trolls and other various operatives stir the stew in an effort to de-legitimize ZH as a viable alternative information source.

This simply means that ZH is gaining credibility, not losing it. Besides, you look down right purtty with all those junks under your smiling face. :>)

You are most likely factually correct, but only because most of these activities are now "outsourced" to private contractors. This is grunt work, no different than slinging hash and cleaning latrines, best left to the likes of Haliburton and company.

No, this is the game they play.  I've been fighting these assholes for ten years.  Anytime anyone anywhere even looks cross-eyed at the word "Israel" on a computer screen, a million screaming zionist banshees come out of the woodwork to defend human rights abuse, torture, occupation, murder, etc.  It's a propaganda war, and you can tell they're losing by the heightened pitch and ferocity of their attacks.  They know the end game is near and they can't do anything about it other than cuss and scream.

I liken Israel to Napoleonic France.  Napoleon did alot of damage, and alot of people hate what Napoleon did, but that doesn't mean they hate the french. 

We live in a strange world, and this issue is almost as bizarre as the currency / gold manipulation that has been going on.  Anyone who criticizes the State of Israel is automatically labeled an anti-Semite, or self-hating-jew.  This is beginning to change.  John Mearshimer and Stephen Walt wrote an excellent book and paper (the latter is  available to read online: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Israel_Lobby_and_U.S._Foreign_Policy) Great book though.

They make the logical case that the US foreign policy support of Israel regardless of what they do, is contrary to US interests and the long term interests of Israel itself.  I tend to agree with their assessment.

The junk feature is rather meaningless when we don’t have their arguments. In 2001, Daniel Bernard, France’s ambassador to Britain, was overheard telling guests at a cocktail party that the world’s problems were all the fault of "that shitty little country, Israel." Why, the ambassador wondered aloud, "should the world be in danger of World War III because of those people.”

It would be interesting to see if one could find evidence of Goldman etc taking positions based on future attacks.  My guess is that it would be concealed really well.

How would you react if their names were Bellino, Bozzone, La

Well?

And Cassano, Kashkari, thain and Dodd are not prominent jews but they along with other goys are charter members of a Tribe that has colluded to ruin you. Unless of course you are in league with them, Ripped.

My thinking is when TSHTF European and North American sleeping cells will be activated and there will be a full blown massacre followed by a continental wide lock-down followed by enactment of new laws which will require of you to contact your government when you want to make a sandwich or take a piss. If you do not act as the new "anti-terrorist" laws require of you, your ass will be hauled away never to be seen again. It's just how this bloody, decaying, soul-less joke of a world works.

Sorry, your culture is corruption itself and is dying now that you've come into contact with an advanced civilization.  Your porno-loving terrorists are proof of that.  You've nothing left but to throw yourselves against the wall of modernity in a sad display of machismo. 

It scares me to think what the Europeans are going to do with the Muslims who've moved into Europe once they tire of being sucked dry.  The Europeans have annihilated more than one culture in the past few centuries.  It will be quite nasty when it comes down upon your heads. 

So, no, you won't be outlasting us.  Your grandchildren will curse your names for antagonizing the West.

Thanks for the failed attempt at moral equivalency.

When discussing Palestine, we are talking about current events, not something that happened in the past, long ago.

There are millions of Palestinians still waiting to go home.  Many of them still hold the deeds and keys to their house, now occupied by some zionist douchebag.

The Jewish population of Iran is a mere 25% of what it was in the 1948.  Jews in Arab countries have fared far worse than this – with large populations forcibly exiled from their homes and businesses at rates approaching 100%.

What would it take to fix the Indian problem, to your satisfaction? A few hundred more tax-free casinos, maybe? More tax-free sacred land grants to add to the 55.7 million acres now reserved for native Americans, say in the nation’s most expensively developed areas--to add to those they already have in, say, downtown Palm Springs, or in Phoenix, San Diego, Santa Barbara County, or New Mexico or Georgia or Florida?  Most obtained after they were developed. Or say more prime, occupied land along the Oregon coast, or more quaint lighthouses such as Cape Blanco or St. Martin Island Lighthouse on land now owned by a Native American Indian tribe that allows no passage directly onto the island by tourists?

There are currently 12 Indian reservations that are larger than the state of Rhode Island and nine reservations larger than Delaware.  How about handing back Manhattan Island that the native Americans sold for $24 in beads and related trinkets?  Or giving them Washington, DC? Hey…

Congress and the U.S. Supreme Court are generous.  Recently, all those Indians who live under their own governments within their reservation lands if they so choose to live there (even for tribes down to 3 or 4 members), have been allowed to build gambling casinos and resort hotels on those lands and reap the benefits of having exclusive access to populated areas that “non-native American” businesses are not allowed to have.  

Seriously, if the huge debt we owe native Americans (except of course if it turns out that native Americans were white men such as Kennewick man whose ancient remains were turned over to Kennewick, Washington’s “native Americans” by Bill Clinton to be destroyed because Mr. Kennewick obviously pre-dated the Indians’ arrival) falls short of forcing all of us on a death march and turning the entire country back to them, what, practically, could be done that would satisfy you?

In all honestly we do the Native Americans no favors by subsidising their existence, we give them just enough money to keep them alive, but only enough to keep them in poverty.  It really is socialism at its worst.  If we quit giving them money, then they would find a way to be self sufficient and liberatated (at least spiritually) they'd have to.  Then they could hold their heads up and walk with pride.

I understand what you are saying.  But the point is, most Native Americans are proud of their heritage and many hope to preserve it. And they have a choice of living on the reservation or not:

American Indians and Alaska Natives are citizens of the United States and of the states in which they reside. They are also citizens of the tribes to which they belong according to the criteria established by each tribe.

American Indians and Alaska Natives have the same rights as all citizens to hold public office. In this century, American Indian and Alaska Native men and women have held elected and appointed offices at all levels of state, local, and federal government. Charles Curtis, a member of the Kaw Tribe of Kansas, served as Vice President of the United States under President Herbert Hoover.

Indians have also been elected to the United States Congress. .

http://aspe.hhs.gov/SelfGovernance/faqs.htm

Here are some clarifying answers from Native American Websites for Kids:

Q: How many Native Americans are there today?
A: According to the census reports, there are about 2 million Native Americans in the United States and 1 million in Canada.

Q: What does it mean when you say Native American languages are endangered?
A: If children stop learning their native language, the languages can die out just like endangered species. Some Native American communities are bilingual, but in most places parents have stopped teaching children their native language. In the past, the United States and Canadian governments used to take Indian children away from non-English-speaking homes, without their parents' permission, and put them into boarding schools. This was extremely traumatic for the children, so many parents stopped using their native languages to try and protect them. This bad policy was eliminated, but now many Native Americans have grown up without their language, and it is difficult to try to learn a new language as an adult. Some communities are trying to recruit elders to teach the youngest generation the language before it is too late.

How is Israel illegal?  Seems the powers that be set the place up legally. You know, with the Rothschilds' blessing.


The Balfour Declaration of 1917 (dated 2 November 1917) was a formal statement of policy by the British government stating that

"His Majesty's government view with favour the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people, and will use their best endeavors to facilitate the achievement of this object, it being clearly understood that nothing shall be done which may prejudice the civil and religious rights of existing non-Jewish communities in Palestine, or the rights and political status enjoyed by Jews in any other country."[1]

The declaration was made in a letter from Foreign Secretary Arthur James Balfour to Baron Rothschild (Walter Rothschild, 2nd Baron Rothschild), a leader of the British Jewish community, for transmission to the Zionist Federation of Great Britain and Ireland, a Zionist organization. The letter reflected the position of the British Cabinet, as agreed upon in a meeting on 31 October 1917. It further stated that the declaration is a sign of"sympathy with Jewish Zionist aspirations."

The statement was issued through the efforts of Chaim Weizmann and Nahum Sokolow, the principal Zionist leaders based in London; as they had asked for the reconstitution of Palestine as “the” Jewish national home the declaration fell short of Zionist expectations.[2]

The "Balfour Declaration" was later incorporated into the Sèvres peace treaty with Turkey and the Mandate for Palestine. T

Some thoughts on the region...

 

Iran announced the capture of Abdulmalek Rigi, the boss of the terror organization Jundullah, which works for NATO. The capture of Rigi represents a serious setback for the US-UK strategy of using false flag state-sponsored terrorism against Iran and Pakistan, and ultimately to sabotage China’s geopolitics of oil. The Iranians claim to have captured Rigi all by themselves, but the Pakistani ambassador to Teheran is quoted in The Dawn as claiming an important role for Pakistan. The Iranians say that Rigi was attempting to fly from Dubai to Kyrgystan, and that his plane was forced to land in Iran by Iranian interceptors. This exploit recalls Oliver North’s 1985 intercept of the accused Achille Lauro perpetrators, including Abu Abbas, forcing their Egyptian plane to land at Sigonella, Sicily. But other and perhaps more realistic versions suggest that Iran was tipped off by the Pakistanis, or even that Rigi was captured by Pakistan and delivered to the Iranians.

Jundullah, otherwise known as the Rigi organization, is a clan-based Mafia organization that has long infested the Iran-Pakistan border. The Rigis are traditionally smugglers and drug pushers of royalist persuasion, and now they have branched out into terrorism. Jundullah is mounting a Sunni rebellion against the Shiite Iranian regime in Iranian Baluchistan. They have blown up a Shiite mosque, killing 25, and managed to kill 50 in a bombing in Pishin last October, where their victims included some top commanders of Iran’s Revolutionary Guard, against which Mrs. Clinton has now declared war. There is no doubt that Jundullah is on the US payroll. This fact has been confirmed by Brian Ross of ABC News, the London Daily Telegraph, and by Seymour Hersh in the New Yorker. Hersh noted that Jundullah has received some of the $400 million appropriated by the US Congress in the most recent Bush-era regime change legislation targeting Iran.

Jundullah is a key part of the US-UK strategy of fomenting ethnic and religious civil war in both Iran and Pakistan. Jundullah is a twofer in this context, since it can help destabilize both sides of the Iran-Pakistan border. Baluchistan has special importance because any oil pipeline linking Iran with China must go straight across Baluchistan. Jundullah’s false flag jihad is a means to make sure that strategic pipeline, which would help solve China’s energy problem, is never built.

There is also no doubt that Jundullah functions as an arm of NATO, a kind of irregular warfare asset similar in some ways to the KLA of Kosovo. Rigi is reported by the Iranians to have met with Jop de Hoop Scheffer when he was NATO Secretary General. Rigi has also met with various NATO generals operating in Afghanistan. Who knows — he may have met with McChrystal himself, a covert ops veteran from Iraq.

This capture comes at a moment when Baluchistan is the object of intense US-UK exertions. The current US-NATO offensive in southern Afghanistan targets Marjah and the rest of Helmand province, which directly faces Baluchistan. Many observers were puzzled when the US and NATO publicized the Marjah offensive in advance. Militarist talking heads like General Barry McCaffrey responded that the main goal of the Marjah offensive was not to destroy the Taliban, but to drive them out of the province. It was thus clear from the beginning that the real goal was to drive the Helmand Taliban fighters into Pakistani Baluchistan. Why?

A statement from the Afghan Taliban covered on the RIA Novosti web site suggests that the real goal of the US-NATO offensive in Marjah-Helmand is to attack Chinese economic interests in Pakistani Baluchistan, and especially the port of Gwadar, one of China’s largest overseas projects. If the US can push the Taliban into Pakistani Baluchistan and into the area around Gwadar, they will have a pretext for militarization – perhaps through Blackwater mercenaries, who are already operating massively in Pakistan, or perhaps through direct US military involvement in the zone. US jackboots on the ground in Baluchistan would interfere mightily with Chinese economic development plans. They would also allow the US to commandeer Gwadar as the home port of a new NATO supply line into southern Afghanistan, allowing the avoidance of the Khyber Pass bottleneck. The US could also use Baluchistan as a springboard for bigger and better terror ops into Iran, electronic surveillance of Iranian activities, and so forth.

The US and NATO had evidently planned a double envelopment of Baluchistan, with Taliban fighters from Helmand arriving from the north, while the Jundullah escalated their own activity on the ground. Now that Rigi has joined his brother in Iranian jails, Jundullah has been decapitated, and the NATO strategy has consequently been undermined. Iran has bagged a dangerous terrorist foe. Another winner is Pakistan, where The Dawn celebrated the capture of Rigi as “a godsend” and “a lucky break” for Pakistan. By helping Rigi to fall into Iranian hands, Pakistan may have finally found an effective way to counter the US-UK strategy, which notoriously aims at the breakup and partition of Pakistan. The coming Iranian trial of Rigi may go far towards exposing the real mechanism of terrorism in today’s world, with the CIA sitting in the dock next to Rigi.

Enough gloom and doom. Here is a funny true story. Before Israel gave Sinai back to Egypt, many Mercedes taxis were stolen in Tel Aviv and Jerusalem and even though israel is a very tiny area, they never found any of them.

What actually happened was that unsavory characters who knew that the border in Sinai will eventually be moved, burried the stollen MB's in the Sinai sands and when the border moved they were in Egyptian territory. Three years later an Israeli tourist got into a taxi in Cairo and saw the Hebrew letters in the taxi and reported it back home. That's how the mystery was solved
